Support optimization WIFI at home: AE Verizon Quantum Gateway

Hi, Im trying to install a monitoring system which will be installed in the living room. Currently I have my express airport connected via wifi, its redundant and inefficient for devices connected ethernet & airplay. So that I could play with this system I want to be sure before we drill holes through brick walls and buy a lot of cable. I intend to try with short cables prior to installation. Thanks in advance for the help.

My main question is how can I optimize the configuration. I intend to move the extreme from the airport to the living room and pass a thread of outdoor cat 6 (see dotted line) to the living room, another in the basement (with an airport express).


1. can I use the wan port gigabit on the router on port wan on the extreme? or do I have to use the LAN ports, which limit the speed to 100mbs.

2. what parameters the extreme must be set to.

3. can I run ethernet cable from the router Verizon to Airport express and still have the network under a parasol in airport utility (i.e. having airplay on the speakers of the express). or do I have to switch the extreme ethernet cables to the express.

4 should. what settings I change my express? (currently its to expand the wifi network)

Here is a picture of the ground floor. I also have a basement that has a 3rd generation of apple tv and airplay for the gym. My plan, if I am able to release of the express from the living room to use it in the basement to extend the signal via ethernet.

2 MC414LL/A express airport base station

Airport extreme ME177LL/A

router: Verizon fios wireless broadcasting quantum gateway is turned off.

The devices connected to my home network are

WiFi - 2 smart cams x samsung, zeppelin B & W, thermostat to nest and protect nest of x 3. Smart TV Apple TV x 2 gen 4, apple tv 3rd generation

Ethernet-Pioneer vsx90 receiver. iMac (Headquarters), the system of security provided.

mobile WiFi: iphonesx2, iPad 2 & mini 2, macbook pro,

1. can I use the wan port gigabit on the router on port wan on the extreme? or do I have to use the LAN ports, which limit the speed to 100mbs.

On the Time Capsule Ethernet ports are all 1 Gbps ones. Unfortunately, the Express are only 100 Mbit/s. The connection between the router and the extreme should be 1 Gbit/s. In turn, the attached devices to the extreme have the potential to be at 1 Gbps.

2. what parameters the extreme must be set to.

Both the extreme and the router must be configured for a mobile network. In this type of network, each wireless router will broadcast its own Wi - Fi network, but each network will use the same network (SSID, aka) name and use the same type of wireless security & the password. You have then the possibility to connect either or both express base stations by wire or wireless network.

3. can I run ethernet cable from the router Verizon to Airport express and still have the network under a parasol in airport utility (i.e. having airplay on the speakers of the express). or do I have to switch the extreme ethernet cables to the express.

Yes, in a mobile network. You want all the base stations connected to the Verizon router in this mode.

4 should. what settings I change my express? (currently its to expand the wifi network)

That depends on your goal with Express base stations. By your excellent diagram, you can only use it for streaming. In this case they would just set up to join the roaming wireless network.

Another thing. Before drilling holes, you can consider using Powerline adapters instead. These take advantage of the circuit of electrical wiring of your existing home to create the pseudo Ethernet those. In your case, you would need a minimum of two of these cards. One at the location of the Verizon router and another to the new location of the extreme in the living room. In turn, you would connect a heel Ethernet cable between the router / extreme and the adapter. No need for holes. These adapter came along the way in performance.

  • MacBook Pro crashes when connecting to WiFi at home

    Hi all

    Short:

    When I connect to some of my macbook pro WiFi networks freezes.  By freezing I mean all input devices stop working: no touchpad, no keyboard, no external mouse, no keyboard.  My laptop stops 30 seconds after the Frost is out of the reboot.  The problem is worse at home.  He will die almost instantly if I try to use my home network.  On the road, it can take an hour or two, then freeze!  At work, life seems almost endless, but it froze.  More details to follow.

    Symptoms:

    • When I connect everything first a loading bar is shown, sometimes it will freeze it and start/stop.
    • Shortly after I log in, before you do anything, but moving the mouse, it will freeze.
    • Sometimes I can not connect and it will work fine for a few minutes, until I use all that internet: firefox, safari, mail, any software that checks the license through the internet, then it freezes.
    • Other times, I can work on the internet without pain for hours.
    • Sometimes it will work very well, I will walk away and the machine goes to sleep.  When I wake up, it will freeze.  With and without the WiFi on.
    • Sometimes it will work very well, I'll close the lid for a certain period of time for 1 minute to 24 hours and sometimes when I open it it will freeze.
    • It crashed when booting in verbose mode.  Died when something with bluetooth.  I tried only once.
    • When in recovery mode (CMD + R), I can run the utility disc fine, but if I want to reinstall OS X, the minute, trying to download (after signing with my Apple ID) it will freeze.  It's the only way I've been able to reliable and predictable way to reproduce this problem, however, as on my home network.
    • There is never crash logs in the console.  I have never one "your machine should be stopped."  The only way that I know that there was a problem is that I will ask you to log in and when I do, none of my programs are still open.

    Where this happens:

    • On my work WiFi network, it's hardly a question.  Happened at least 5 times in the last year.
    • During a journey (so any number of networks and equipment) will occur once an hour.
    • At home, he can go months without a pass and then, as yesterday (24/04/16), occur continuously for hours on end.  (I have just let my laptop open and hear the chime start about once a minute).

    What I tried:

    • Reinstalled OS X.
    • Run diagnostics (CMD + D)
    • Reset the PRAM and SMC
    • Run recovery stuff (CMD + R)
    • Safe mode has the same problems; When internet is used, it freezes.
    • That thing where you delete all of your connections wifi, both in the Terminal and in the GUI.
    • Disable IPV6 on my Macbook Pro
    • The laptop is not hot.  Power supply or the battery power does not make a difference.

    Other stuff:

    • I have an old Macbook Pro (running Yosemite) who doesn't have these problems.  There is another Windows Mobile and apple and windows Phone which does not have these problems.
    • Using WiFi at home and Arris TG1682G me provided by Comcast/Xfinity.
    • My laptop froze all the time and then I went to another network (neighbor thank you!) and everything seems fine.

    As my computer can still freeze on other networks I'll post this now and change it.  I don't want to lose that.

    I can't find a button change.  Shortly after I posted this my macbook pro has frozen and restarted.  I was not on my wifi at home.

  • How to use wifi at home and the office without changing the configuration

    I use a connection Wi - Fi through a large modem broadband at home. I want to use Wi - Fi in my office too. My office, Wi - Fi is through the proxy server and firewall must provide the proxy details. When there is also this information is not required. I choose option "obtain an ip address automatically". If I continue with the same option my internet will not work.

    I don't want a configuration is changed every day for my office wifi and wifi at home. I use IE as my browser.

    Try this:

    Go to the properties of the wireless network adapter. Look for the Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4). Select it, and then click Properties. On the general tab, copy the IP address and address settings DNS server, and then select the options obtain an IP address automatically and DNS server automatically get an address. Now go to the alternate Configuration tab and select the user configured. Now, enter the IP address and the DNS server address that you copied previously, here it is. Click Ok. Click Ok.

  • Troubleshooting-new HP with Windows 7 spectrum XT, does not connect to the WiFi at home?

    So I just got my brand new HP ENVY spectrum XT Ultrabook with Windows 7 Home Premium installed. 64 bit. I start it, everything works fine, except that when I connect to my WiFi at home. I tried to connect, entered my password, but it does not connect. Also tried the easy connection on the router. No luck. I checked my old laptop which runs on Windows Vista to see if WiFi worked always, and this is where it gets interesting. I was able to browse the internet and internet worked, but suddenly Windows informed me that "another computer uses the same IP address" and it stops my internet capabilities on my old laptop. I connected my cable ethernet on both computers, and it works for both computers when it is plugged. While that plugged, I discovered that I could create my own IP address, which I did on my old laptop and so far that seems to have solved the problem. However, my DESIRE is always not connecting to WiFi. Any advice?

    Hi ZachRhodes3,

    ·         You get the error message?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software .

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Follow these steps:

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode with network and check if the problem persists.

    Step 2: If the problem does not persist in safe mode with networking, perform a clean boot to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow step 7 the link to start the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    Method 3: Follow the steps in the article.
