Home Networking issue - Apple Extreme + 2 airports of Apple

• Sudden home networking issues

  Product name: Macbook Pro 13 inch Retina early 2015.

  OS (when the problem started): Yosemite 10.10.5

  OS (now): El Capitan 10.11.5

  The problem

  So yesterday my Mac Wifi connection dropped suddenly. So, I moved to lightning Ethernet connection which has varied between does not and VERY slow, almost unusable. I work from home online, so the last 2 days I was not able to do anything.

  I can connect to Wifi, Mac said Internet: accessible. I can ping. But can not browse and other tools such as Google Drive and Dropbox are unable to connect.

  So far, this would indicate a problem with my network or my router, rather than my right to the machine? However, my Android phone works fine with Wifi.

  Things I've tried:

  I've been on Yosemite 10.10.5. I followed all the troubleshooting steps basis and the following:

  • Reset my SMC.
  • Reset my PRAM.
  • I turned off the Bluetooth.
  • I deleted the files in Network preferences to reset a reboot.
  • I "forgot" my home network to reset it like that.
  • Running reports "wireless diagnosis" everything is "as planned."
  • Attach to the Wireless on my Android Nexus 5 X hotspot. Connects to the Wifi but not Internet after 10 seconds. Sometimes not at all.

  Then, I took a backup and upgrade to El Capitan. The strange thing is, about an hour after the upgrade, my ethernet cable was working fine again! About 14:00 yesterday at 09:00 today when I turned on it to start working.

  NOTE: I connect to the network fine, and Google Drive and Dropbox plugins start synchronization. Full report 'sync', then, after about 10 seconds, they say "unable to connect". Holding "option/alt" and clicking on the Wifi symbol in the toolbar says "Internet: accessible. Indeed, I can 'ping' very well. There is no loss of data packets. So could it be a software on my machine which has suddenly become crazy and prevents connections other than the pings? I have run Avast Anti-virus, but which has worked for months and is running as I type this. Similar posts often get answers their questions about firewalls and proxies that might cause the problem. I only have Avast.

  Affirmations:

  If it was a problem with my router, my phone would not have a problem too?

  If it's a problem with my Mac, why would Internet suddenly started working again after a while?

  I write this in a coffee shop, using their Wifi and it works fine. I don't have whatever it is off on my machine. Yet once, which suggests a problem with my network rather than the phone.

  Is this something that could be fixed to an Apple Store? As I suspected, it works very well to the coffee then probably it would work fine in the Apple store and they don't know what to do.

  I thought only try you geniuses first!

  Thanks in advance.

  It is very difficult to debug an Internet without Internet problem.

  First of all uninstall AVAST from the system. then open system preferences > network > enter your network > what is place please do as automatic. What, the other DNS settings, preferred networks etc please post.

• Home networking issues

  OK, here's the problem. I networked my 3 computers together; 1 home, 1 vista home, 1 7 home xp. The XP tells me in my network places connections and 2 other computers through the internet. It has 2 categories showing the local network and internet. Why is that happening and how can I solve this problem? My vista and 7 computers show that a single network.

  Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

  Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

  In Windows 7 and Vista, set the Type of network to 'Private', not 'Public '.

  In Vista, turn on password protected sharing. In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You don't want to use the residential group unless you have all Windows 7 machines. In sharing advanced:

  Discovery of plug in the network
  Open the files and printers sharing
  Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
  Plug the password protected sharing

  A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, turning on window file sharing and printer as the above will take care of that for you. In XP, you can run the Network Setup Wizard or just enable file sharing / print in the Windows XP firewall exceptions. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

  (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

  C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

  (Vista and Windows 7) Start > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  XP - set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) -http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

  D. Si one or more of the computers on your network are XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

  E. create share as you wish. XP Home does not share the users directory or the Program Files, but you can share folders inside those directories. A better choice is to simply use the Shared Documents folder. In Vista and Windows 7 I usually shares its office and the Public directory.

• How to extend a WiFi router network not Apple using Airport Extreme and Express?

  My cable ISP company just gave me a new modem/router - a DG of Arris - 2470. For the last two years I used a cable modem independent older with a connected Airport Extreme (both located on the ground floor) and an Airport Express station on the floor as an Extender. I was very happy with the power of the signal around the House.

  Since his arrival to the Arris router my signal has become very low to the floor. I would use my two Apple devices to extend/boost my network, but do not know how to do this.

  Thank you!

  Basically, you have two options:

  1. (Best overall performance of the network) Connect the extreme and Express on the Arris Ethernet gateway device and configure all for a traveling-type network. This would require an Ethernet connection between all routers that can be accomplished by either using Ethernet cable or the use of mains adapters.
  2. (The overall performance of the adequate network) Simply connect the extreme to the Arris Ethernet, then extend the extreme using the Express.

  Which of these do you prefer?

• Join an extreme of airport wireless network a/c

  I have a brand new a/c bought Airport Extreme just before Christmas that I expected to use to reach my a/c current wireless network, however the installation options do not work on OS x and IOS. For clarity, I did create a quick screen recording and put on youtube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wD3S48IAXz8 , of the installation failure... is it a broken product or has apple silently deleted the possibility of using the extremes of the airport?

  My approach is this:

  Step 1: force the update of the firmware to 7.7.3 (corrupt snack)

  Step 2: reset (everyone on the forums to talk about this)

  Step 3: try to join a network, no tool, not even an airport IOS tool won't let me

  Any help is appreciated!

  AirPort Extreme can "extend" the wireless network produced by another router from Apple... but the "expand" function will work with 3 third-party products.

  AirPort Extreme could be able to 'join' a wireless network from Apple... even though it really doesn't do anything when it does, because the only thing that works is the USB port... but it will not 'join' a 3rd party network.

  The AirPort Express, which is used for AirPlay was designed to "join" virtually any wireless network.

  Maybe if you could tell us what you want AirPort Extreme to do on your network, we can offer you a solution... but it will almost certainly involve an Ethernet wired, permanently to the 3rd router part.

• Transfers of extremely slow files on the home network 802.11 g

  Hello

  I have a home network with only two devices (more the router) on this subject.  The first is a portable computer, the second is a desktop PC / multimedia.

  My problem is that when I try to transfer a file from one computer to another, the transfer is terribly slow (for example, a 200 MB file will take 30 minutes).  I know that we cannot wait to be as fast as advertised wireless transfer rates by the manufacturer, but 100 kb/s is just too slow - especially when you consider that I can download files from the internet (on the home network, through the same router) to > 600 kb / s.  So, while I am very confused of what could be the problem, I'm pretty of course it is not a question of signal strength (and leaning me more towards a PC issue rather than a router problem).
  I looked online and saw people suggests to disable remote differential Compression and WIndows meeting space (which I did on both computers) - but my problem persists.

  Someone at - it any other suggestions?

  Thank you!

• Airport Extreme and Airport Express remove blackheads effectively.  The Eeco seems a better solution.

  Airport Extreme and Airport Express do a bad job to expand the WiFi connection in a House.  The Ethernet port on the Airport Express doesn't seem to work.  The Eeco product seems to have done a better job to extend a Wi - Fi network in a home.

  You posted your comments as an issue. You have a question or a problem that you want to get help related to Apple network so that we can try to help you to?

• Need to understand my situation of home network

  Hello

  I'm having a little problem, trying to figure out how to delegate my home network since I started working out of the House. I have only the internet (100 Mbps) with no cable so I spread all my shows across various applications on two smart TVs. I also have a 7 year old who plays xbox live, I have a few home automation (6 lights shades phillips, iHome 3 caps, bolt dormant Schlage, Canary camera and Ecobee Thermostat with 3 sensors) 3 iPads, 2 iPhones, AppleTV 2, 1 macbook pro, 1 desktop and 1 iMac. For now, I have the newest Airport Extreme connected to my modem with shades phillips, Samsung Smart TV switch and and an Airport Express (Bridge Mode) point. I have the CANARIE camera and an Apple TV connected to the express. In the House, I have another Airport Express station I have my Sony Smart TV hooked up to the Wan which is hidden (I'm the only person who uses it for my iPhone). I also have one of the Apple TV hooked up to it. In the children's room, he has the Xbox one hooked and video streaming or playing games. I always know when he's on the Xbox because of the latency in the living room TV (The Samsung) or the desktop.

  My House is small enough, 950 square feet, brick ranch-style house. The bottom is being renovated to become half of my office. I see if I can do something to speed up my internet. Currently, I only shoot in, 50 MB/s, when I should be around 70 or more.

  I was looking for the Netgear router Nighthawk or a Linksys router and using the Airport Extreme as a switch. I have my office just now set up in the living room and I think move the modem to my office (10 feet away from its present location) so I can have my phone/fax VOIP hooked up to the modem and then have my desktop connected directly to the router using an ethernet cable.

  I'm trying to understand it and it has been bothering me a lot, someone of you have an idea of what would be best implemented?

  Thank you very much I appreciate your help and your time.

  Ethernet is always better.

  If you are renovating the GET home ethernet installed in the walls and several points around the House... you will be amazed at the difference.

  For wireless use never repeat... but you can use multiple wireless access Points. (installation of apple routers for the wireless is just fine).

  I was looking for the Netgear router Nighthawk or a Linksys router

  These will have a wireless range superior cf Apple... but still, you don't want to extend wireless... If the signal is not good enough... and when you have a lot of walls of brick which is very likely to happen... then have another WAP and ethernet.

• Can I use 2 routers on my home network?

  Can I use 2 routers on my home network? I have a modem/router combo Xfinity but my Airport extreme must be a router that is better than what came with the Xfinity plan. I was told you can use 2 routers for various computers (iPhone, iPad, iMac, etc) and choose the one that gives the best range and result.

  Do you use a separator line and then to the cable connection? Or would I connect the Airport Extreme in the router/modem by an Ethernet cable Xfinity? In any case, what has worked for you, assistants out there?

  JIM

  Do not use 2 routers, they will conflict (without careful configuration) and even when they are not there is nothing to be gained by.

• Can't view the YouTube video because there is an active filter. It happens on the job and home networks and only on Firefox (15.0.1).

  After update 15.0.1 Firefox and Adobe Flash Player to 11.4, I was unable to view the media from YouTube. I was given a message: "this video is not available with the filter of education allowed.» To view this video, site network administrator will have to add to a playlist. I work for a school district and use my laptop at work so I thought that I got this message because YouTube is blocked on this network. But when I got home, I got the same message on my home network with YouTube videos. I have reset Firefox and he took care of the issue until I'm at work, and the problem happened again with the same message everywhere... I tried to post the same videos on another browser (Safari) and it works beautifully. I'm afraid that if I reset Firefox even once, I'm having the same problem.

  It is possible that YouTube set a cookie to filter which can still be seen when you connect at home. To clear cookies for youtube.com, you can use one of these:

  (1) 'dialog show Cookies' tab in Preferences/Privacy:

  Firefox > Preferences > privacy > 'view the Cookies '.

  Type yout in the search box at the top to filter the list and remove each cookie individually.

  (2) "view Cookies dialog box" in the Page Info/Security tab:

  While displaying a page on the site-

  Tools > Page Info > Security > 'view the Cookies '.

  -remove each cookie individually.

  Then, try to reload the page and see if Youtube behaves differently.

• Home sharing Mac Apple TV

  I have a 3rd generation, Apple TV and just bought a new Apple TV this last Christmas. I often had problems connecting to my music and my Apple TV movies 3rd generation with my iTunes running on my iMac. Frequently, I get a message telling me that iTunes must be on and turn on home sharing. Now, I get that on my new Apple TV as well. My question is, that important if the computer is in standby or if hard drives are probably stop after my iMac has been asleep for more than 3 hours. which is my power to save the settings. Thanks for any help you can give. It seems to connect to my Apple TV is a hit or miss proposal today. I still have my share of home computer and ITunes is turned on, connected to the home network, but honestly I don't know if the hard drives are running when I try to connect.

• Satellite 650 d - WiFi drags on the home network

  I have a Satellite 650 d Windows 7 64-bit on a home network - there are two other (non-Toshiba) computers on the home network as well (both run W7 - 64-bit, 32-bit)

  Last week, when I turn on the Toshiba WiFi, it will drag down the overall speed the network about 10 MB less than 2 MB on download - and 2 MB less than 0.2 MB download. When I turn off the WiFi on the Toshiba, the network takes right to the top.

  I wonder if anyone has experienced this problem - and if so, what are some of the problems potential I should look for to try to solve it?

  I already tried updating drivers wireless on Toshiba site - with no difficulty on this end... so looking for other opportunities to meditate

• Persistent problems with wireless home network

  Hi, the problem started two weeks or more ago, when after the connection to the internet easily using our wireless network connection, my computer began to say that our domestic network was unidentified, then studied by troubleshooting my self but do not really understand the information the computer indicated to me. As it was a problem of the internet I contacted our local provider broadband, they looked like the line and the service was absolutely perfect and to confirm this router computer of my father in the same cable network has internet connection easily as it was my mom who was using the connection via the same router wireless cell phone.
  Following the instructions of technitians I have tried to manually enter internet addresses to see if that would help the internet connection, it did. So I thought that the problem has been resolved. I had the use of the internet that day and everything was fine until I restarted the next morning. The problem reappeared. So I called my internet provider again, this time I'm sorry to say to a girl rather too quickly diagnosed that I had a virus to uninstall Google chrome and reinstall a different browser... That didn't make sense to me, but I tried some sort.  So I moved my office tower and all the bits in one place in the House were we could conect it to the router with an ethernet cable followed his instructions then moved the computer to its original position but still no internet connection and still this problem 'identification '. I turned off the machine and tried again the next day. Start by running the troubleshooting of network problems, this time I looked at the detailed report which curiously stated that the computer had difficulty oscillating between two somethings (sorry don't remember the detail correctly is days ago)
  So I called my internet provider again and I am a helpful young man, read him the information and examined the reports that they had written about the problem in the days preceding. I followed his instructions looked in the network sharing Center, settings changed and added in manual codes for the internet, turn off the router for 10 seconds or more and then restarted, this time with not even a temporary success. We tried a few things but I always got the same contradictory message in the dialog box in the lower right corner, where it showed I was connected to the local network not connected to the internet, when I opened the network sharing Center from the local network to the router would show that 'Identification' and the conection to the internet would be marked with a cross. I managed to pass my network profile is for some reason any defined to the public rather that home and we were able to change it (even if it wasn't easy)
  So I was told it was probably a driver issue, I was told I might need check the updates of my license on this operation the technitian and I also saw the site of netgear, that there was a potential conflict between Kaspersky and the netgear driver, so I need to uninstall my Kaspersky anti-virus stuff and the old pilot , down load and install the new drivers and then reinstall kaspersky. I followed it. (Movement of the tower and all the bits in place in the House were the ethernet cable was available).  I found an updated driver, uninstalled downloaded kaspersky and run only the driver installed Kaspersky again. Everything seemed to go well and I even plugged in the wireless adapter connected to the internet through that and disconnected the cable... things were going well.
  So I turned off the machine and carried over into my room where I turned on once again. The problem reoccured. I thought it was time to communicate with kaspersky. So I turned the computer off and reduced to the ethernet cable. Connected a Kaspersky contacted by e-mail, they were quick and I was asked to run a program that logeed my information system. I did this and I told them I thought it might be a conflict between the driver and their softwear, they have looked into it, asking me to run a misuse of this program and the results by e-mail. Once again, I've followed the instructions and took notes, but no problem was found. They showed me how to configure my kaspersky firewall to allow access to the networks. It's when I was doing that I noticed that the computer had five ads of our home network, so I put all the profiles of their trust, apply changes and tested to see if it would work. On the wireless internet in the office where the ethernet cable and a router are by train, it's good, it works. I connected the wireless network and disonnect the ethernet then on the internet and there is no break in service. But if I shut down the computer and set up in my room at 12 meters, it won't work with signal strong (4 / 5 bars are green).

  This morning I watched the windows firewall settings and changed some of them to see if that makes a difference. but none.

  I'm trying hard to think about this problem but I'm getting nowhere fast, I know just enough. I just tried pluging in the wireless network adapter again, but there is no wireless network connection now and no internet connection:

  After having tried downlaoding a new driver and this has not fixed the problem after having only tested the wireless signal is strong enough for good internet connection to my mother's computer in my room, I'm stuck. I looked on the netgear site and follow their advice, but it's really a night Mare!
  I also noticed that somehow, we put in place five versions of our home network, I wonder if there is some confusion computer... I looked into the idea of the removal of the networks, and it seems that you can not do. I am trying to back up my files, uninstall everything and re - build my computer from scratch. If there is something else I should try before taking this message please drastic measures me ASAP.
