Extreme problem of airport with the guest account
It drives me crazy! I had the extreme AC router from the airport for a couple of years now. It works perfectly if the guest account is disabled. Whenever I try to enable the guest account access, I have a time very very difficult to connect to this account. The main and guest account are both set to wpa2. When I connect, I get proverbial bells and whistles go telling me airport utility system is set to be implemented via cable wan which decreases the Security (in my own home that is not a problem) and it tells me to put it in bridge not NAT and DHCP mode. If the clipping the guest account value absolutely not allow internet connection. What I am doing wrong?
The macbook, I am trying to connect is running LION
What is the brand and model of the modem Internet you have your AirPort Extreme, directly connected by Ethernet?
If this device is actually a combination modem & router, then your extreme must be configured as a bridge. Guest network does NOT work in Bridge mode.

Second laptop connect only with the guest account
I have an E1500 which replaced a broken WRT54GS. I have a desktop office computer using the ethernet cable to the Internet via a DSL Modem and I have two other laptops, one is a Macbook Pro running Lion and the other is a Toshiba running WinXP SP3 using two Wi - Fi connection. Before installing the E1500 all three computers were able to connect to the internet via my secure connection, but now with the E1500, I can get the Mac to connect using my secure WPA2 Personal connection and the Toshiba will connect through the guest account. I lived the configuration wireless for the Toshiba providing several times I put in good properties wireless and network key, but it does not connect. The process of connecting Macbook was a blink of an eye without any problem. I also get Windows XP wireless connection properties back to default (WEP), because it will not hold personal WPA2 settings, but even if it contains personal WPA2 security settings it does not connect. I was also able to connect the Toshiba with the ethernet cable, without going through the wireless network.
Why can I connect via the guest account and not via my connection on the Toshiba? Help someone?
Thanks for the detailed explanation.
I had actually just this solved tonight with about 2 hours of chat with Linksys. It turns out the Windows SP3 XP Toshiba doesn't have a true WPA2 - Personal encryption, only the WPA - PSK (pre-shared Key), while the Macbook Pro has WPA2 Personal. The whole system runs on a hexadecimal code 63. I got the router located on only WPA2 Personal. When I changed (manual) WPA/WPA2/joint, then I had two computers on the network. But then came another problem, when I connected with the Macbook, Toshiba has lost its connection with an error message - "IP address conflict with another system on the network. That proved to be the setting of the channel on the network. The channel was not sync from the old Linksys router configuration. Changed to channel 11 on the router to synchronize with the Macbook Pro and that has been resolved. There is no option for channels on the Toshiba that I can find.

Aero does not work for me, but works with the guest account.
From: Tony Burke
Any suggestions?
From: Paul Smith
There is probably some software running which disables it. Stuff as Java always calls the API legacy to draw graphics that allows Windows to the old mode rescue.
If you click Start, and then type "Defender" Windows Defender should appear, from there, you can use the 'explore software' (under Tools) to try to disable all applications that are running on login.

DOWNLOAD SECURITY with the GUEST ACCOUNT?
How to lock any ability to download anything on my computer when it is in the account "guest"? I thought that GUEST accounts are locked to add all the software? As an experiement, I just downloaded Yahoo Messenger on my 'Guest' account and it worked! (I think it would have let me NOT download and install)
I went to 'HELP' and he said that everything must be locked on - so, how Messenger download and has been on my PC that I was in the guest account? Help! For security I want to lock my pc, so guests can not put anything unwanted on. WebWatcher, Spyware, etc. Thank you!
There are applications that install on the local profile only. Which; s the way some applications become around the UAC stuff. They do not affect anything other than the GUEST account.

Hello.
I have a Dell INSPIRON 1545
Windows 7 Home PremiumSomehow my "guest" account that you can toggle is administrator.
my other 'Ordinary' user is a standard user and I can't do the promotion.
Because this "guest" account is Administrator I can't ' create new accounts / change accounts / disable comments / CMD refuse orders. "
"I don't have the"windows drive"so there is no need to restore my windows / safe mode does not help either.I read a thousand threats and issues on this topic but nothing helped me.
Help, please!
to be honest I don't know if the administrator account is enabled.
You have fallen into a popular trap, the trap of not plan and create an alternative emergency admin account, even if you have a spare emergency House key. It's now cause you a lot of grief. If the problem occurred recently, then you can resolve as follows:
- Use your repair Windows CD to start the machine in Repair Mode.
- Invoke the system restore to configure Windows to a point before the problem occurred.
- Plan in advance and create, test, and document this absolutely essential spare admin account.
If this does not work then send me a note (pegasusDOTfnlATgmailDOTcom). -

I have a problem of access to the Outlook account and other pages because appears "certificate error" what's happened with these certificates? Help please.
There are two main reasons for the mistakes of certificate:
- Your computer's time is not set correctly. Check your time year/month/day/hour/minute/timezone/light of day. Right-click on the clock in your taskbar and select "set Date/time" and make sure you are ready approximately 5 minutes of real time (don't forget time zone and DST).
- The second reason is that Windows XP is not very good for updating root certificates. Go to the following site:

'Update Package root (designed for Windows XP only)'
There is a link, you can use to download a update for your root certificates package. Download this package and double-click it to update.

I want to protect my children from my pc because I don't want to access the net. So I would like to ask if my pc is protected from pw and the guest account is disabled is there another way that my child will be able to access my pc without my supervision?
Hello
Here is a very good explanation by Malkeleah and others in the linked Thread that explains that it is virtually impossible to stop a person access to your computer, if they really want.
"(N'importe quel ordinateur exécutant un système d'exploitation est accessible par une personne avec 1) access physical;" (2) time; (3) jurisdiction; (4) tools. There are a few things you can do to make it a little more difficult but:
1. define a password in the BIOS that must be entered before starting the operating system. Also to set the supervisor password in the BIOS so the BIOS configuration cannot be entered without it.
2. starting at the BIOS, change the order of boot to hard drive first.
3. set strong passwords on all accounts, including the built-in XP administrator account (it is disabled by default in Vista).
4. If you leave your own account connected, use Windows key + L to lock the computer (or set the screen/power economy saver) when you step away from the computer and require a password to use.
5. do the other accounts of users limited in XP Home, regular user accounts in XP Pro. All users must be on a Standard account in Vista with an administrator account used only for purposes of elevation.
Please understand that these are technical answers to what is essentially a technical problem and there are ways around these precautions. It is a problem of family / interpersonal which cannot be solved by technical means.
MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic! "
And read other responses it mention password "Cracking" programs (which it's comments) which are available on Internet and other suggestions.
