How to activate 802.11ac on EA6500

Bought an EA6500 last year and have now a laptop with an 802.11ac wireless card inside. At work, my laptop shows it's connected ac 802.11.   At home on the EA6500 I can't it connect with ac 802.11.

What should I look for?  I don't see any 802.11ac specific settings anywhere.

Problem solved,

A setting of the router under wireless menu and 5 GHz referencing.

Network mode: has two options.

Mixed, N only, CA only.   It has been set to N only.

I changed it to joint and my Mac Book pro now connects at the 802.11ac network.

On a Mac you can hold down the 'alt' key and click on the wireless icon and it will show you the stats of current connection.

shows currently PHY Mode: 80211.ac

Now off the coast to test 5 GHz coverage and penetration in my house.

  • How to activate 802. 1 x with ' Wake on LAN ' EMS 2010 cisco?

    Hello

    We have acquired an EMS cisco 2010 to replace our distribution switch. I've implemented the 802.1 X network. Everything works great except that I can't find how to activate 802. 1 x with "Wake on LAN" on this kind of switch. You have an idea?

    The catalyst, I saw that it was sufficient to activate this control "control-direction authentication {times |}". in}.

    Except that it seems not to exist on this switch. Is there another way to activate 802. 1 x WoL without the help of this command?

    Or how to allow the magic packet (WoL) on a port marked by unauthorized 802.1 x?

    Thanks in advance

  • How of many streams 802.11ac end 15 27 "5 K?

    I'm trying to determine the fastest wireless access point, can I use it with my new 4 GHz quad core i7 iMac 5 K without overpaying.  My end of 2013 MacBook pro supports the flow of 3 x 3, so I had the RT - 68U ASUS, but I wonder how many streams are available in the new iMac.  I can't find this spec.  Thank you!

    Up to three times faster than Wi - Fi.

    With three components technology 802.11ac, iMac takes office Wi - Fi at an unprecedented rate. Simply connect a 802.11ac - such as AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule airport - base station and to reach data rates of Gbps.3 up to 1.3 which is triple the previous 802.11n standard. You also get double the bandwidth of the channel, with scale of 80 MHz channels offering more room for data more than circulate more quickly than ever.

  • Installation of WLAN 802.11ac VST

    My company recently purchased a VST Instrument of SMU-5644R without buying software or licenses!

    I realized with the help of support NI AE s which, in my view, the requirements are to some 802.11ac measures with the VST.

    LabVIEW 2012 development suite

    Toolkit Spectral Measurements

    Modulation Toolkit

    WLAN Measurement Suite V4.0

    I expect to have all the software and licenses I need in the coming days.

    I have a number of questions remaining on the installation and configuration associated with this 802.11ac measurement solution that I really wish to get help with people NOR or any other people who have been through it already.

    1. do I also a FlexRIO as SMU-7965R module for basic 802.11ac generation and analysis or this card is not required unless I need of channel modeling or other custom work?  I have in fact already of this material but do not know if his need and it is not quite clear to me exactly when I need to use it.

    2. is there a process I should follow [or anyone can propose a] to ensure that I can get all this material and to work together without too much wheel spin?

    3. are there examples of LabVIEW to take a measurement of CCRP with the VST?  Have not found any.

    4. How can I configure the routing of détente between FlexRIO and VST module?  Had some trouble getting a few VST LabVIEW base for work and did not understand the explanation. The summary of message says error "the example uses paths PXI trigger for FPGA i/o, that these lines must be routed to the VST" he continued by saying that this range can be made to the MAX.  I've messed around with the routing, but could not get the error message disappears.

    Thanks for any help or advice, you can provide,

  • Airport Extreme 802.11ac - I have a defective router again?

    Dear Apple friends,

    I reduced a problem with my Airport Extreme 802.11ac wireless router which I hope someone can shed some light on.

    Things I've tried:

    • Hard reset
    • Factory full reset w. of new settings.
    • Two different Apple ID (account iCloud)
    • Connection via the devices iOS (iPhone and iPad, both on v9.3.4)
    • 7.7.3 downgrade (problem).
    • New upgrade to 7.7.7 (problem).

    That is the problem.

    If I put a ID for 'Back to my Mac' Apple Airport utility > basic Station... updated and restart the router...

    .. .the router will not appear in Airport utility again unless I connect to it directly via IP.

    A Wi - Fi connection works fine but I cannot access the airport, or whatever it be connected until I have remove the back to my Mac (Apple ID) of Airport utility references.

    This router is a replacement from the Apple Store for a faulty Airport Extreme 802.11ac, who died after a few months.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated. I think again that router to Apple, but before you make the trek down there, I would be a little sure that this isn't just a bug or a problem on the end of Apple.

    Thank you, in advance.

    No, you don't do anything wrong. This problem has been reported several times recently and the only 'solution' at this stage is to disable Back to My Mac on your AirPort base station, until Apple has a chance to solve this problem.

    I need to know how to activate the box that asks if I'd like firefox to remember this password.

    Normally when you install Firefox this feature is enabled by default. You can check the status in the Options dialog box:

    the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > Security tab

    In the second section, there is a checkbox for "Remember passwords for sites". These articles have more information:

    Now... some websites add code to the fields on their forms to block the AutoComplete (which blocks also save connections), so that you can find some sites where Firefox will not save the password for this reason. It may be some workaround solutions, we discussed several times for Yahoo! mail, for example, but since they are long to describe, please post if the problem is specific to the site and provide if possible a link to the login form.
