• Several Powerline adapters

  I have 2 pairs of these model powerline adapters. I'm trying to get them all on the same network so I a have a main powerline adapter into the modem and the other 3 are around the House (one on the floor, a staircase and an extra one for another room). When I try to pair them up to the same network. That the modem will disconnect one upstairs, then pair than downstairs. I continued to try this several times but keep coming up with the same result. the adapters are able to be combined in total on the same network?

  I put in the same room and they were all synchronized upward after about 3 tries, thanks, it works!

• 6.2.5 ReadyNAS 104 firmware update is not displayed for ethernet network adapters > links

  I recently updated my ReadyNAS to 6.2.5 firmware 1.04 and the network > links page does not appear any ethernet cards. I recycled the box several times but still no information of the card. Because I can navigate to the page to admin (via IP address), the network works. However, it does not appear in the DNS so I would check the configuration but impossible because no card shows eth. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  I finally solve this by manually installing the 6.2.5 new update. Seemed to have solved any problem occurred during automatic update.

• What affects the connectivity of the powerline adapters electrically

  Using the PL1000 to have access to the network in my office to shop. Units worked perfectly out of the box for several months. I went for a month and when I came home and tried to access the computer of the shop there was no link. The PL1000 are plugged into the sockets of same, no changes to electrical appliances and any news or lights on the circuit, the units stay connected. I can plug into outlet on the same circuit upstream where I need the PL1000 plugged to the and it connects fine. I can plug into any other points of sale in the shop and it works very well. Even the outputs that are physically further away.

  Can't understand why the adapter works on each point of sale except those in the office where I need it to work.

  Linked wire back panel circuit breaker directly to the office. PL1000 works fine now. Perhaps insulted the wire connections on the old circuit caused problems.

• Compatible powerline adapter

  Hello world

  Currently, I have 2 Netgear powerline 600 XAV6501 to receive IPTV. I would like to put another TV in another room and want to know which adapter will be compatible with the XAV6501.

  I searched on the internet and there are an impressive number of cards and of course, I don't want to buy an adapter that is not compatible.

  Being new to this site, I hope I've included all the necessary information.

  Thanking you in advance for all advice offered.

  Your current model is HomeplugAV standard, so any other adapter powerline HomeplugAV or the new HomeplugAV2 standard will work with her (the HomeplugAV2 is compatible with HomeplugAV)

  Most of the new powerline adapters will be the standard HomeplugAV or HomeplugAV2.

  Hope this helps

• Use the second router to extend the network to Time Capsule

  I have a v7.6.7 running Time Capsule 1 TB and older airport. I'm hoping to add a second router in a new location, and I use an ethernet cable from the TC at the new router (TP Link Archer C5), updated to the latest version of the firmware. The IP address of the TC is 192.168.1.1.

  I have set up my router C5 as follows: allocation of IP 192.168.1.199, value DHCP = off, and I connect a cable between the TC ports and port WAN (not Internet) available on the C5. In the C5 wireless settings, I tried both using the TC SSID and pw and creating a new SSID and pw. In both cases, the network will work for a short time, but eventually the entire network, including the TC, stops working. I made no changes to the parameters of the TC on any trial.

  Is it possible to use a TC and a router not Apple on the same network? If so, what are the right settings for the TC and the secondary router? If not, is it better to have the not Apple as main router and add the TC to the network created by the non-Apple router?

  Is it possible to use a TC and a router not Apple on the same network? If so, what are the right settings for the TC and the secondary router?

  Yes. That would be the basis of a network of mobile type.

  The key for a roaming network parameters are:

  • The 'primary' router must be configured as a router. In other words, it must have active NAT and DHCP services.
  • All other routers used in a network of roaming must be reconfigured as a bridge.
  • All routers must broadcast a Wi - Fi network that uses the same network (SSID, aka) name, and the type of wireless security, and the password.
  • All routers must be interconnected by Ethernet. To provide Powerline adapters using an Ethernet connectivity should also work.

  If not, is it better to have the not Apple as main router and add the TC to the network created by the non-Apple router?

  Should not really which is the main in the roaming network.

  I think at this point, your current circuit line. To check that, I would suggest that you consider to bring back the router C5 in the same room as you have the TC. Then connect it directly to one of the LAN of the TC ports. Complete the entire upward to a mobile network and test it. If everything works, bring back the C5 in the desired location, and then try again.

  If it fails, then the circuit line will be tested to check that it provides a solid 'Ethernet' connection between the adapters.

• Using Extreme as Extender TC

  Current configuration: Time Capsule tower (a/c version) as main router and using Airport Extreme (A1143) as extender via Powerline (AV2, gigabit ports).

  Thanks for all the great advice on setting up the network in previous posts.  I have a few specific questions, I saw not specifically addressed:

  (1) I have implemented EI using airport utility to expand my main network.  It seems that I'm set up correctly, because airport utility shows a line full of my TC to my AE (indicating a connection between the two ethernet).

  However, looking at my AE settings in airport tab wireless utility, "network" Mode is set to "create a wireless network.  Is not this set to 'Extend wireless network A?'  As the airport utility is configured this way, I don't want to mess with it.  But because the router is in "Bridge" Mode, why the network Mode is not set to "Extend"?

  (2) using the application Explorer of WiFi on my Mac, I see two entries for my primary network, which I suppose is normal with my setup.  Sometimes these two networks is on the same channel and sometimes not.  Is how important it?  Should I put them aside from the same channel?  Or make them use separate channels?

  (3) I guess my configuration using Powerline adapters is better than wireless devices, but less to connecting directly by ethernet.  Is this correct?

  Thanks in advance for the help!

  However, looking at my AE settings in airport tab wireless utility, "network" Mode is set to "create a wireless network.  Is not this set to 'Extend wireless network A?'

  N°... "Extend a wireless network" would be used only if the AirPort Extreme connected using a Wireless connection, and it's not. It connects using Ethernet.

  Tip... whenever an Ethernet connection is established, an airport must be put in place to "create a wireless network.

  Use the "Automatic" setting on the two airports and then forget.

• Airport Express in client mode to serve Airport Extreme

  Hi guys,.

  I am struggling with Setup in our business that is pretty special. Our cash register, the Bank Terminal and the control system are all serviced by an Airport Extreme that was configured with care by a dedicated company. The extreme is powered via an Ethernet based modem. The basic modem is a box any of the internet service provider in our country that has four ethernet ports and a basic WIFI network that we open for customers. As the basic modem is too far from the extreme, a powerline sitecom was initially used to carry the signal to the modem from basic to the extreme.

  But the powerline connection was poor, so they advised me to replace the powerline by an Airport Express in client mode, which converts the client base modem wifi signal ethernet to the WAN port on the extreme. I installed the Express exactly as described by Apple (AirPort Express: how to join an existing client mode - Apple Support Wi - Fi network) and the entire installation ran smooth for about an hour. At a time of seemingly random, all of a sudden the extreme complains that the internet connection is lost. In airport utility, the extreme flashes green, but the internet icon is orange and the notification indicates that the connection is lost. However, the Express flashes green and is always connected to the WIFI which worked again properly, I confirmed. Restart the extreme and Express to solve the problem, but only temporarily. After some time, the extreme complained again that the internet is lost.

  Can someone explain what could cause this problem and how to solve? Thanks in advance.

  From your description, I guess that the WiFi connection between the base modem and the AirPort Express is where you need to solve problems more far. Looks like that the modem is not a simple modem, but a combination modem and the wireless router, also known as the name of a gateway device.

  Nevertheless, the best solution would be to use an Ethernet cable dedicated between the "modem" and the AirPort Extreme. Bypassing the Express all together. The next would be Powerline adapters. I'm a little surprised that those you used works well for you. Unfortunately, the scenario of 'worse' bandwidth performance is what you're doing now is to use the AirPort Express as an Ethernet bridge Wireless Terminal

  However, if you have no other choice in the matter, where you then place the Express can make a difference. You want to Express to be in a db 25 + range of report Signal to noise (SNR) of the modem. This will allow the Express maintain a connection compatible with this modem wireless network. To find out how to measure SNR, discover the next Tip of an airport users for details. Please post back your results.

• Can I use my time capsule for wired Internet?

  The fundamental question is, I can connect my time capsule to my wireless internet router and then use the capsule to connect my iMac to the Internet with an Ethernet cable?

  The back story: I have an i7 iMac late 2009 that has worked perfectly until that somewhere around OS x Lion. The update came, and suddenly the wifi became shotty; intermittent connectivity that could last from 2 hours to 2 minutes and often, the computer would suddenly turns off. So, I just took an Ethernet cable from my gateway wireless comcast directly to my time capsule and then another was running for the TC to the iMac. It worked perfectly when the router and the iMac were in the same room. Since then, we moved and there is only a single coaxial connection of work in the new House, and this room that can hold your desktop. Now, I searched high and low for a fix for the problem of wifi, without success; reset the PRAM, change the wireless channel reset wireless packet, you name it I tried it (with the exception of a reinstallation of firmware lion before the airport summary-pretend). I really do not have the money to have someone come run an Ethernet cable through my walls now or to understand the situation of coaxial cable (I tried to do it me but there are about 10 outputs and the room that I want to use seems to actually be connected directly on a former satellite Hughes-NET on the side of the House). Now, this wireless to the dream of the Ethernet connection is my only option... Anyway I can make it work?

  The fundamental question is, I can connect my time capsule to my wireless internet router and then use the capsule to connect my iMac to the Internet with an Ethernet cable?

  The answer is not quite as simple.

  Yes... If your 'hand' wireless router is another Apple wireless router.

  No.... If your 'hand' wireless router is a part 3.

  However, you have two options if you have a 3rd party router that provides to your wireless network:

  (1) add an AirPort Express and it set up to 'join' the network wireless provided by your 3rd party product. Then, the AirPort Express can provide wired Ethernet cable of the Time Capsule and the iMac can connect to the time Capsule using Ethernet as well.

  (2) If you can not run the Ethernet cable... (always the best performance option)... a pair of Ethernet over Powerline adapters could be able to send the Ethernet signal via power lines the existing AC in your House.  In other words, the theory with EoP devices is that you already have the wiring in place, you must just adapters.

  An adapter would be located near your router 'primary' and plugged into an outlet. A short Ethernet cable connects to the router to the EoP adapter.  In contrast, an another EoP adapter is plugged into a power outlet near the time Capsule and a short Ethernet cable connects from the adapter to the time Capsule. Then, the iMac connects to time Capsule using a different Ethernet cable as well.

• Best method of connection?

  I went away from wireless connectivity in hand (2 iPhones, an iMac and an iPad being the only wireless), but my iMac, printer, 2 x, 2 x, smart TV, DVD player, a PS4 BT TV boxes, booty and a use of Time Capsule a wired network through 3 x PowerLine adapters (1 in the living room 1 in a bedroom and the other in the "office")

  However, when my iMac back to TB, everything slows down and the TV images (via BT TV boxes) go 'blocks '.

  I appreciate there are some devices on my network, but in general things are very well - until the backup - then I would ask if there is a better way to connect the TC to the iMac that will not affect the network.  I thought that wireless backup has been pretty slow, especially when a full backup as complete, but I don't think that there is no alternative - without splashiing on a thunderbolt or any other drive (Firewire?) type.

  Comments and pine nuts you know :-)

  However, when my iMac back to TB, everything slows down and the TV images (via BT TV boxes) go 'blocks '.

  There is no quality of Service in installation of Mac... Unfortunately the backups are rated most important computer and video streaming, which should always be the top of the heap of QoS.

  The problem is also that EOP use common bandwidth... Unlike ethernet, which is based around a switch that is able to run packages on multiple devices at the same time... without wire or can EOP do this.

  best way to connect the TC to the iMac that will not affect the network.

  Ethernet... still and always... and forever.

  I thought that wireless backup has been pretty slow, especially when a full backup as complete, but I don't think that there is no alternative - without splashiing on a thunderbolt or any other drive (Firewire?) type.

  How old is the iMac? If it's 2012 or later, it has USB3 ports that are fast and cheap.

  BUT... even USB 2 on previous computer is still faster than gigabit network. Even if the USB is slower on paper... It reality it works fine. And a self powered 2.5 "drive can be plugged directly on the mac and pretty well hidden completely from view.

  You can make occasional backups for the TC... and continue to use the local drive instead.

  Otherwise, you can wire the House with ethernet... a costly but total of the problem solution.

• Expand my network using the extreme and Express

  I am currently working on installing wifi in a very big house.  I have an Airport Extreme, also located as possible with multiple Airport Express branching.  There is always a part of the House that receives no signal wifi however.  Here's my question: is - it possible with this configuration, to add another extreme from the Airport via the ethernet connection in where the extreme original is located at a location between the extreme original and the section that does not have WiFi, then plug an express airport out of the extreme (cable) second?  running ethernet all the way, he will not be able to happen and ethernet over powerline adapters not working already on this distance.

  Is it possible with this configuration, to add another extreme from the Airport via the ethernet connection in where the extreme original is located at a location between the extreme original and the section that does not have WiFi, then plug an express airport out of the extreme (cable) second?

  Sure. Run the cable from one of the LAN <>- ports on your "main" AirPort Extreme to the "O" WAN port on the AirPort Extreme distance.

  Use Apple install "wizard" to configure the remote AirPort Extreme "extend using Ethernet" and it automatically adapts the AirPort Extreme to use the same wireless network name being the "main" extreme.  The following example shows an AirPort Express... you would see an AirPort Extreme on your screen during installation.

  

  The AirPort Express's power off, wait a few seconds, then it to power up. It will then pick up the signal from the closest AirPort Extreme.

• Support optimization WIFI at home: AE Verizon Quantum Gateway

  Hi, Im trying to install a monitoring system which will be installed in the living room. Currently I have my express airport connected via wifi, its redundant and inefficient for devices connected ethernet & airplay. So that I could play with this system I want to be sure before we drill holes through brick walls and buy a lot of cable. I intend to try with short cables prior to installation. Thanks in advance for the help.

  My main question is how can I optimize the configuration. I intend to move the extreme from the airport to the living room and pass a thread of outdoor cat 6 (see dotted line) to the living room, another in the basement (with an airport express).

  
  

  1. can I use the wan port gigabit on the router on port wan on the extreme? or do I have to use the LAN ports, which limit the speed to 100mbs.

  2. what parameters the extreme must be set to.

  3. can I run ethernet cable from the router Verizon to Airport express and still have the network under a parasol in airport utility (i.e. having airplay on the speakers of the express). or do I have to switch the extreme ethernet cables to the express.

  4 should. what settings I change my express? (currently its to expand the wifi network)

  Here is a picture of the ground floor. I also have a basement that has a 3rd generation of apple tv and airplay for the gym. My plan, if I am able to release of the express from the living room to use it in the basement to extend the signal via ethernet.

  2 MC414LL/A express airport base station

  Airport extreme ME177LL/A

  router: Verizon fios wireless broadcasting quantum gateway is turned off.

  The devices connected to my home network are

  WiFi - 2 smart cams x samsung, zeppelin B & W, thermostat to nest and protect nest of x 3. Smart TV Apple TV x 2 gen 4, apple tv 3rd generation

  Ethernet-Pioneer vsx90 receiver. iMac (Headquarters), the system of security provided.

  mobile WiFi: iphonesx2, iPad 2 & mini 2, macbook pro,

  

  1. can I use the wan port gigabit on the router on port wan on the extreme? or do I have to use the LAN ports, which limit the speed to 100mbs.

  On the Time Capsule Ethernet ports are all 1 Gbps ones. Unfortunately, the Express are only 100 Mbit/s. The connection between the router and the extreme should be 1 Gbit/s. In turn, the attached devices to the extreme have the potential to be at 1 Gbps.

  2. what parameters the extreme must be set to.

  Both the extreme and the router must be configured for a mobile network. In this type of network, each wireless router will broadcast its own Wi - Fi network, but each network will use the same network (SSID, aka) name and use the same type of wireless security & the password. You have then the possibility to connect either or both express base stations by wire or wireless network.

  3. can I run ethernet cable from the router Verizon to Airport express and still have the network under a parasol in airport utility (i.e. having airplay on the speakers of the express). or do I have to switch the extreme ethernet cables to the express.

  Yes, in a mobile network. You want all the base stations connected to the Verizon router in this mode.

  4 should. what settings I change my express? (currently its to expand the wifi network)

  That depends on your goal with Express base stations. By your excellent diagram, you can only use it for streaming. In this case they would just set up to join the roaming wireless network.

  Another thing. Before drilling holes, you can consider using Powerline adapters instead. These take advantage of the circuit of electrical wiring of your existing home to create the pseudo Ethernet those. In your case, you would need a minimum of two of these cards. One at the location of the Verizon router and another to the new location of the extreme in the living room. In turn, you would connect a heel Ethernet cable between the router / extreme and the adapter. No need for holes. These adapter came along the way in performance.

  Hi, use that in a SOHO environment, low volume, a few client machines. Has been wired Ethernet before, but after a move, I need now it wireless (I have 802.11 B/G/N/AC available). I want to keep the functionality of scan-to-network-folder in addition to printing. Should what print server I use? There is such a range of price, and none of them indicate compatibility with the M570dn I see.

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  Can try for Ethenet power adapters.   Pretty cheap.

• OfficeJet 5740: Officejet wireless 5740 radio does not

  My 5740 Officejet printer all-in-one has been well wireless, but a few days a go it stopped working and now can not detect any network, network results page test indicates that 'wireles radio' does not work, there is nothing wrong with the router as the two computer and Iphone can connect.

  I tried all the set ups and I don't know, can someone help the reconnects.

  Well, it seems that your wireless on the printer is faulty.

  BUT... it seems that you're lucky because you have an Ethernet port!  Just buy some adapters to power line Ethernet and use the wiring in your House for your printer anywhere in the House.

  Something like that.
