Several network devices: extreme as a base or bridge?

I just bought an Airport Extreme and I have a few questions about how to put in place the best way.

I live in a House with two routers, an Extender and now the Airport Extreme. All connected with cables except the Extender

Can I use the same name and password for each wireless network and considering the extreme works as a bridge or use it as a Base Station, as it's been purchased Wi - Fi in the basement.

At the moment two routers have the same name and password, the extender with own name but the same password as the routers and the extreme as a separate Base Station name and password. All four devices on different channels. It's all wrong get the highest and best speed wireless out of the extreme and all devices in general?

See you soon

To help, if it please provide brand & model of each of your networks, including the modem hardware. Also, what is your current configuration of the network with these devices?

From your post, I understand that you have a total of four of them, which includes both routers, an Extender (I guess wireless) and the new Airport Extreme base station 802.11ac.

  • Several networks on Time Capsule

    Can someone explain to me why I have several networks? I went through the Airport utility, and I find myself with 5 networks. I understand the 2.4 GHz vs 5 GHz, but it seems to be confusing to some of my mottos (xBox, Wii, etc.). Thank you.

    You do not tell us how many airport routers, you might have, but it looks like you have 3 devices... unless you named the guest network the same as your main network.

    Recent versions of the airport are simultaneous dual-band, so they produce a signal Wireless 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz with the same network name.  So, it's 2 networks for a router.

    If you have a second airport, set up to extend or expand the network, then it too will be 2 networks with the same wireless network name. So, it's more than 2 networks for the second airport... for a total of 4 so far.

    Pourriez you have a version of a band unique AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express. So it's 1 over the network.  Or, if you have a recent version of the airport, the scan did not pick up the 'other' network at the time.

    Total... 5 networks.  Quite normal.

    Wireless devices choose the router with the signal the harder... at least in theory... then choose 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz according to their abilities and the distance to the airport.

    Of course, a feature which is 2.4 GHz only will connect to the 2.4 GHz network, then... in theory... it will choose the strongest signal 2.4 GHz of the nearest router.

    If a device can connect to 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz... It will be connected to 5 GHz, if it's in the same room or in immediate proximity to the router. But as signals of 5 GHz are much lower than 2.4 GHz signals, the same device will connect probably in 2.4 GHz if she moves a piece or two away from the router.

  • Airport not showing is not as network device?

    My Airport Extreme 802.11ac does not appear in the finder as a network device. It showed in the previous Extreme model I was using, then leave for any reason any. After messing around for a month or two, then trying to get it working again, I bought the new 802.11ac AE, but it does the same thing.

    I have two other devices that appear in the finder under the shared part of the side bar of the Finder window, but cannot figure out how to show by EI. The wireless feature works very well, as a printer BSE connected to the USB port of the AE. Internet

    It would be different if I was using the IP address of the type 10.x.x.x instead being in bridge mode and using 192.168.1.X?

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    My Airport Extreme 802.11ac does not appear in the finder as a network device

    In the finder it will show only upward if you have a connected USB drive.

    It showed in the previous extreme model that I used

    Only if you have the network resources available to him.

    Computers will be displayed, because they offer resources network, the PF to be exact.

    But the airport will not be displayed. Mine is not, and never has.

    My Time Capsule arises because it is a hard drive offering services of files on the network.

    Printers will not appear in the finder no longer...  Again, I have printers online... they do not show in finder and never have any version of Mac OS X, I used.

    However a printer with USB or SD card slots and a wired card which offers services of files on the network may appear... In the only finder services files will be displayed.

    EI has to offer network file services appears in the Finder... Plug a USB stick into the USB port and set it to share on the network and the AE will then appear in the finder.

    The place that you are looking for your AE's utilitarian Airport... It's the Apple of method available to see you the configuration of EI... no viewfinder.

  • Networking the cDAQ-9188 - no 'network devices' Max

    Hi all:

    I have problems connecting my NI 9188 cDAQ via ethernet to my computer. MAX does not display it in his repertoire, or it displays "network devices". Based on the guide NOR offer, I don't know what else to do (I can't access the modules in a LabVIEW project which is my problem).

    I used the tool online browser that seems to be the equivalent of MAX and works very well - I can see the IP address of the controller and it shows what chassis slots are used by what the map.

    I tried manually inputing this IP in a remote system to the MAX, but that hasn't worked.

    Any ideas on how I can networks controller on my computer so I can actually use in a LabVIEW project.

    I have LabVIEW 2012 32 Bit. Would a student version be the cause of the problem?

    Thank you very much.

    I am familiar with the method you describe, but I agree with all the power cycling to get some of these products to work. I had to do this several times with the cRIO. Any chance you could give a little more than a description step by step explcit of your approach? Thank you!

    Good so here's what I did to try to reproduce and to have a step by step of what I had to do.

    Firstly I have reset my cDAQ so that it would be if all goes well in the mode that yours is.  To do this, I pressed the button to reset for 5 seconds then.  I have also all my network devices defined to "Obtain an IP address automatically" in the IPv4 settings in my network connections.

    After that, I start MAX.

    Go to devices and Interfaces > network devices, then I right click and choose Find devices.  It took a lot of time and the list was empty, but then I noticed that while he was always looking in this window, the MAX window showed my cDAQ-9188, who was a white device.  There, he registered the IP address as 169.254.93.149.  At this point if I went to the device to the MAX I saw where he sometimes States under network settings that no network adapters found.

    So I closed MAX and open my "view network connections" in Windows, I just searched that term in the start menu.  Then for my device properties, went to the IPv4 properties, set the IP address of 169.254.93.0 with 255.255.0.0 default gateway.  It is, so I'm on the same subnet as the appliance.

    I then restarted MAX now when I go to the device under devices, network and network settings I can set static IP and subnet is 255.255.0.0 10.10.10.100 then save.  Then closed MAX.

    Then I went back to my view network connections, the static value of what I really wanted is 10.10.10.0

    MAX then launched.  Find my device that is always white, click Add the device.  And then all is good.  I don't know if all these steps are necessary, and I don't know if there is an easier way, but it worked for me.

  • Look at a FPS in real time of the events of several IPS devices

    What is the best strategy for the display of the IPS in real-time of the events of several IPS devices now that VMS filed end of LIFE?

    There was a nice view unique of all IPS events from all IPS devices run in VMS and I was wondering where I can tell people to receive the same information on their networks. I do not see in CSM and I do not think that they will find in MARCH. Please notify and correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you!

    You can use VEI. It is an observer of events that has a dashboard in real time also. You can import several sensors inside and view the events in real time.

  • ISE - network devices - Split larger range of IP addresses in smaller

    Hello.

    We have several companies, each of them have affected a subnet of class B, 172.21.xx 16, 172.27.xx 16, etc. for example.

    But each company has several locations, which has normally a class C subnet are assigned

    It is a structure that I want to build in ISE also.
    It is very convenient during authorization profiles and you will need to locate where the client is trying to access the WIFI. You know, to assign the VLAN, etc...

    But when I try to do, I get this error:
    Could not create the network device - given overlapping IP subnet with existing network device: 1.

    Why oh why?

    Is there a way to get around this? If this isn't the case, please implement this feature!

    It was no problem doing this GBA, then why would a problem here?

    Thank you

    Another way to determine where the wifi client is to use an identifier Sin you can specify a group AP or WLAN (by default it is the WLC name) and you can use rules in ISE that make use of the nas radius attribute - identify. The disadvantages with NAS-identify is that you must configure the identifier Sin from the AP on the WLC group, it cannot be done by PI model and you can make a report to ISE using an nas identifier.

  • MacOS Sierra - time machine stuck preparation backup on network devices

    Since I've upgraded to Mac OS Sierra, cannot use my local backup USB. Time Machine is stuck with the message "preparing backup" - more than 12 hours - for network devices, an Apple FileVault and another NAS device. Works very well with the local USB drive.

    Something funny underway with network devices such that she works for the drives the.

    Hope Apple take note and fix.

    I have the same problem. I found this,

    macOS, problems of the Sierra: Time Machine backup Mac

    Time Machine problems prevented the Mac owners of their devices to backup since the upgrade to Mac OS Sierra, and the problem is widespread enough that Apple has published a guide on what to do if you can't back up:

    Discount for the iMac SMC

    1. turn off the device

    2. unplug the power cord from the monitor

    3. wait 60 seconds

    4 reconnect the power cord

    5. DON'T TURN ON DEVICE

    Reset the PRAM

    1. the computer must always be switched off.

    2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: command, Option, P, and r. you need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.

    3. press and release the power button to turn on the computer.

    4. press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You have to press these keys before the gray screen appears. Continue to hold the keys down until the computer is restarted, and you hear the tone of starting for the 3rd time.

    5. release the keys.

    You can then try to save again. If this does not work, try to disable indexing on the drive you want to back up.

    but I'm not sure it's the same question. I'll try it and report.

    Hello

    I put t know what that card WLan you have but you should try to reinstall the WLan driver.
    Go to Device Manager and check first your WLan card.
    Then download the page of European Toshiba driver WLan driver.
    Then delete or uninstall the old drivers WLan (Device Manager) and install the new downloaded drivers.

    Reboot the laptop, and then enable the wireless using the antenna WLan switch and the combination FN + F8.

    If you are not familiar with Vista and don t know how to use the Wlan under Vista OS and then google and you will find many pages that describes how to set up WiFi network.

  • E/s network device Usermode and ConfigFree protocol error

    I have a Toshiba laptop and recently it has not started properly, displaying the following message: "Not found TOSHIBA Network Device Usermode i/o Protocol. Please reinstall ConfigFree. OK ".

    I'm unable to use the laptop and it will not close without having (although once it has stopped and rebooted OK and then worked fine for three days we have left it for Christmas and now it does once again). Can someone let me know what does this error message mean and how do I deal with it (I know little about the functioning of my laptop!).

    We have Windows XP and are configured for a wireless broadband connection. I'd be wonderfully happy if I could work out what I was forced to move to work rather than working at home today because of this!

    Hello

    The message is clear.

    > Please reinstall ConfigFree.

    Then why didn t you reinstall this utility?
    If you didn t create the utility CD & Tools you can download this utility from the Toshiba driver page.
    Then remove the ConfigFree to add & remove programs, reboot the device and reinstall the ConfigFree.

  • Photosmart HP 7520: All wireless network devices will lose connectivity after printing

    Dear all, 
    
        I have a problem with my HP Photosmart 7520 printer where all wireless network devices will lose connectivity after a printer has been sent to the printer.
    
    * Summary
    Wireless network unusable after sending one print to HP printer
    No device ( computers nor smartphones ) can use the Internet nor access internal networks ( 192.168.0/24)
    
    * Details
    Turn HP printer on.  ( wireless direct is off - never turned on )
    HP printer connects to working wireless network.
    Other devices ( phone/computers ) already connected and working.
    From any device, send a document to the printer.
    Printer prints document successfully.
    Immediately after printer has printed all devices cannot access internet IP range ( including HP printer ) nor Internet nor router ( 198.168.0.1 ).
    
    * Reproducibility
    Always
    
    * Work around
    Disconnect all devices from the network.
    Power off printer.
    Reboot Internet router.
    
    * Attempted solutions
    Removed wireless configuration.
    Factory reset.
    Added wireless configuration back.
    Powered on and off printer.
    
    * Printing tested with

    * Not tested
    Ethernet cable directly connected to router.
    
    * Internet Router
    Netgear CG 3700
    

    Number of brand and model of the router?

    These settings are to set up your printer wireless (or wired):

    • Stay connected to your router
    • Trouble printer status 'offline '.
    • Wake mode 'sleep'
    • All wireless devices stay better connected

    While the DHCP is convenient, devices like printers (wired and wireless) should always be assigned a (fixed) IP address manually to avoid conflicts on your wireless network and must be outside the range of the router DHCP.  After the adjustment of the static IP address the computer must be updated to show a Standard TCP/IP port with the IP address of printers under printer properties/Ports.

    1. Set a static in the printer IP address (click here) outside the range of the DHCP of the router (check your manual). It is for Linksys routers, but can be used for all routers. Check your DHCP range and change this first if necessary. More Help Wireless Printing is here and here and still more here.  Video here explains the problem and how to solve the problem. <--> So watch this!
    2. Or check in the printer "Auto Off/sleep/Energy Saving Mode" is disabled the System Mode Time Out is set to zero (0) Use the built-in webserver (EWS) by visiting the printer address IP address in the address bar of your browser, click on settings tab/Auto Off. Or use the printer, printer Home Page (EWS) Wizard. Also check your printer properties.
    3. If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, disable the IPv6 option in the printer.
    4. Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a socket wall and not to a UPS, power strip or a lightning arrestor. This will cause the printer to drop offline connection and disconnection (checked yes!).

    Additional measures to take if you continue to have the problem (if they are posted)...
