  • How to customize the password wireless live?

    I have a Photosmart 7520 printer connected wireless to a hp Pavilion via. Verizon 4 G LTE Jetpack and a Linksys N900 USB adapter.  My printer has recognized and connected successfully to the Jetpack; Menu Direct wireless reads "On(With Security)".  A print to reading 'No' in the WPS column discovered networks.  I tried to customize my password and make it safe (if I need it, I don't know).  I printed the Page of Configuration of HP network, located my URL (s) for the built-in Web server, but when I typed in my web browser I had no connection made.  For example, I entered with no. http//:192.168.1.101. in the end, no .com, www., I can't understand it.  Is it OK like this as 'On(With Security)' or do I need other security measures?  How I use a MI-Fi is different router ethernet connected as far as the above is concerned?  I'd appreciate any effort of someone to help me to better understand and address this problem.  Thank you.

    The password wireless live, I wouldn't worry too much.  Together wireless makes live is to act as an ad-hoc connection that turns off itself and can connect to multiple devices at once.  It makes the printer spread it's own separate network.  If someone connects to this network, the worst they could do is print on your printer.  With the help of a MiFi HotSpot can cause problems in a good wireless environment.  They function as a cell phone, so they are connected permanently and reconnection to different cell towers that tower sends the signal strongest at the time.  This can cause the DHCP HotSpot constantly reallocate IP different addresses to devices on the network.  This may cause the computer to be unable to see the printer.  I suggest you set a static IP address on the printer to prevent that to happen very offten.  The best solution is to use a standard router with a standard internet connection, but I understand that this is not always an option.

  • How to hide the password in the event FDMEE script

    Hello

    I have a script of the event (AftImport.py) implemented in FDMEE. In the script, I have a line to connect to the base:

    Hello

    your security policies are too strong?

    There are different ways to do this. Some of them:

    -Use of Base64 encode/decode (you have the details on our google friend)

    -Store the password in the system environment variable and get this value from the script

    -With the help of related SQL Server/Oracle DB Link + synonyms. Using this approach avoid you opening connections of the scripts as we shall delete your database / tables as objects of FDMEE and the FDMEE databases is accessible from scripts without having to open the connection.

    Different solutions, different ways of hacking password if someone has access to the script. So based on your security policies, you need to find the best solution.

    See you soon

  • How to hide the password of my router? Windows 7 'Starter' _

    Hello

    We have just received a Lenovo S10 Netbook with the 'Starter' Win 7 version for my daughter and I have a question about the configuration of the wireless access.  It's my first exposure to Win 7, so I will describe things better than I can.

    I clicked on the "Internet access" icon in the status bar and came to the list of wireless network connections.  I chose one of our encrypted router WPA - PSK, cut and pasted my character of ~ 30 'network security key' (password/password) and bingo, I was connected to internet and websurfing very well.

    Here's my question.  How i permenently hide 'Network security key' my router?

    When I come back for wireless network connections and right click on my router and select "Properties" and go to the 'Security' tab, there is a small box labeled "Show characters" who will switch back and forth between a string of points and the 'plain text' 'Network security key' for anyone to read. "  I am not prepared to follow his game to use our network if anyone with access to its Netbook can get the password of my router WPA.

    I have a certain devices connected wirelessly to our network, but it's the only one where I can see the password in plain text.  Others show only a string of stars or points to 'Encrypt' the display of the password.

    I'd appreciate any help as well as the girl who hopes to keep access to the internet.

    Thank you very much, BDT

    AFAIK, you can't replace that, even if I'm wrong on this issue.

    Insofar as others get your key wireless of its netbook, make sure that your girls account is a standard user account and that she doesn't have administrator permissions. This way if she tried to see the properties of wireless for your wireless network security, it cannot only if they enter the administrator password. In the example screen if I'm logged in as a standard user and try to check the box next to display characters UAC appears and ask my administrative user password.

    In all cases ensure that the administrative user accounts are password protected by a strong password and access is strictly regulated.

    FWIW, I executed as a standard user, 99% of the time on my Windows 7 laptop. My wife runs as a standard user 100% of the time on his Office XP Pro. When I set up my PC I create an administrative user, IE. Root in my case and the number of users for each machine. All are protected by Word. Root is only used to install programs, change system tricks, security settings, etc... etc... etc...

    Hey people!

    I have a site that I tried my best to make it work well, recently the test myself, I realized how annoying is having to type your password again when you've already connected, and you need to buy something else.

    So what I thought essentially to do is hide the fields of password since the start of the page without messing with my currently jQuery Validation on the page.

    Help is very much appreciated.

    Hello

    You can do this with js/jquery, but you will need to work by default validation of British Colombia script. Tutorials

    Or if you have cash you select can detect the connected with globals.user.isLoggedIn and hide/show password field if necessary.

    Drinking in both cases, you will have to work the js validation by default.

  • ENVY 5540 All - In - One Printer: how to change the password want TO 5540 WIFI Direct from HP default to a different password?

    I try the functions on my new 5540 ENVY. Everything is set up and working correctly so far. I just printed a document from my iPad using the WIFI Direct function on the printer successfully. However, the default password on the printer for the WIFI Direct is simply "12345678". Surely, it should be replaced by a more secure password. My friend something printed its iPad - so obviously, this password is not exclusive to me, anyone can print stuff on my printer just for fun and I have a lot of students around me, the problem could become expensive for me and very boring. WIFI Direct signal covers a distance. I contacted HP telephone support, but the process is time consuming and I had to hang up because I had to work. Maybe someone here could give me instructions, and I can change the password when I have free time. I use wifi for internet (cable ethernet only) and the printer connected via USB to the computer. Also, when I turn on my computer (BUT NOT THE ROUTER) on the wireless function, the printer is and what I need to do is enter "12345678" and start printing. There is no guarantee either. Can someone tell me how to change the password for WIFI Direct 5540 envy? Thank you.

    I'm sure that you can change the EWS web page for your printer.
