WiFi MenuBar menu

Hi, I'm used to see a list of available networks when I click on the drop down menu bar WiFi, each ad with a network name or the SSID, a lock proves he is protected by Word and a set of strength of radio correspondent for power bars.  And I see that for a network if it is selected at the top of the list, or one network further down the list.  So far so good.

Recently, I chose to remove a border (Netgear) router that came with my internet "Tiber at home" and I replaced the router (discovered in talking with Frontier I could do) and replaced it with an Apple Airport Extreme (802.11n among old units maybe five years ago?).  Note that Frontier uses a PPPoE connection type, even if the service isn't really DSL.  That's why I was able to launch their modem/router which was, in fact, only act as a router, so I could replace their router with one of my own.  I prefer just the Apple routers...  I have two and find out how to change settings, etc.

When the border router still worked the show, my menu bar dropdown would show it's lock, power level, and everything just that I described above even when he was selected at the top of the list.  However, when I changed things such as my Apple Airport Extreme was now the router, when THAT network is selected at the top of the list, the lock and power level indicator go far and instead there is a simple "slider of choice" (my words) and next to the cursor if you hover with your mouse is a message "Connected PPPoE" gray and another active (not gray) choice that says "Disconnect". Although I put highlight that, and it seems to do nothing...  If this network is not the first choice, and is rather to the bottom of the list, it appears as usual with the locking level and power.  But make active (top) and this, never seen pair of choice (sort of) appear.

It seems to be something related to a PPPoE connection and it appears ONLY when it's an Airport Extreme (or at least a router from Apple) is the case.

Any ideas why that is there and that it is important for me?  It interested me at first that the LOCK disappears, but only if I'm already connected to it.  Once again, when the network is not selected the lock is there.  And if you try to connect with say the wrong password, it will not work.

If anyone knows why this related special PPPoE network drop-down appears when you are using a router from Apple?

See attached picture shows close networks as well as my chosen at the top network, but where the normal level of the lock and power has been replaced by the carrot with two choices on the right...  Network names were intentionally cut when I took the screenshot.

Thoughts as to why this is, and it seems like it when I use an Apple router in PPPoE mode?

Thank you...  Bob

You can also post a screenshot of your extreme Setup airport utility.

What is the current model of the extreme and execution of which firmware?

I can try and reproduce what you see.

    Hello

    By the description, I understand that you can not use your phone (Samsung S3) Wifi Hotspot in your computer.

    Tethering is a device in which the Galaxy S3 user can turn the device into a modem wireless, Bluetooth, or via the USB cable connection. Mobile internet for your Galaxy S3 data is shared with other devices who want to use the internet too.

    Please follow the steps mentioned below to check if its help:

    Portable Wifi Hotspot:

        1. on the Galaxy S3, go to the settings-> settings more

    2. Select tethering and Mobile Hotspot

    3 activate the Portable wifi hotspot and turn it on

    4. from the other device, access the wifi configuration menu and find the SSID of your Galaxy S3. After that, you will be able to connect.

    Of your Galaxy S3, you can also set if you want to make it secure or not because it will serve as a normal hotspot searchable by other wifi devices and can pair with him if there is no password.

    USB Tethering:

    1. connect the Galaxy S3 on your computer via the USB cable.
    2. on your device, select setting -> more adjustment
    3. Select tethering and mobile hotspot
    4. turn on Tethering USB
    5. the computer should automatically establish a connection and you can connect to the internet with the device.

    USB tethering option can be used with PC only or arrangements with the normal USB port.

    Bluetooth tethering:

    1. pair the bluetooth of the S3 of Galaxy to the other device that attaches to internet
    2. Select settings for setting -> more settings
    3. Select tethering and mobile hotspot
    4. check on attachment of Bluetooth

    If the problem persists then I recommend you contact the manufacturer (Samsung) to check if they can help.

  • problem with style of background color of a menu bar?

    Hi all

    I tried a style menu bar, but it seems I either do not correctly, or it does not.

    what I found the syntax is
     -fx-background-color: Color; 
    I tried to use black and nothing. I also tried
     -fx-color-: black;
    and for some reason, the text color changes from black to white... weird...

    I use Java 8 and there is something called 'Background', which I don't know too much how to use, but not too sure if I SHOULD use it.

    I guess the setStyle would work as the use of a css file and call that, but I'm curious to know if it's something I'm doing or if it's a Java 8 bad bug: P.

    Thank you all!

    ~ KZ

    So is there a problem with 'setStyle' with Java 8, or is it with the menu bar?

    I think that, it's probably a problem with your code or you are using an outdated version.

    The following works fine for me, (Java 8 b 91, win7).

        );
        Menu editMenu = new Menu("Edit");
        editMenu.getItems().setAll(
          new MenuItem("Find...")
        );

          fileMenu,
          editMenu,
          new Menu("Help")
        );
        menuBar.setStyle("-fx-base: forestgreen;");
    // use the line below rather than the line above if you prefer
    // adjusting only the background of the menu bar and not
    // the base color of the entire menuBar menu system.
    //    menuBar.setStyle("-fx-background-color: forestgreen;");

    }
    .menu-item{
        -fx-background-color: blue;

    .menu-item .label {
      -fx-text-fill: white;
    }
    
    .menu-item:focused .label {
      -fx-text-fill: white;
    }
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Try

    ContextMenuContent {
        -fx-background-color: yellow;
    }
    

    There should be a better/more easy way via css to this style.

  • process step by step new airport express from apple with time capsule base of connection (cable cat 5 150 Ft) with late 2008 macbook

    I would like a step by step process apple a new airport express with time capsule base of connection (cable cat 5 150 Ft) with late 2008 macbook.

    Connect one end of the long Ethernet cable (we assume that you have already tested the cable to make sure it works correctly) one of the three ports LAN <>- on the Time Capsule to the WAN port on the AirPort Express "O".

    We assume that the AirPort Express is new, is powered OFF... and has not been previously configured.

    Turning off the Time Capsule

    Wait a few seconds

    Put in the Time Capsule market and let it run a full minute

    Power of the AirPort Express and run a full minute. Currently, the indicator light of the Express slowly flashing orange

    On the MacBook, click the WiFi status menu icon and search for a list of the new AirPort access point

    Just below this list, click on AirPort Express

    Who will get the "Assistant" operational configuration. It will take a few seconds for the wizard to analyze the network and offer the correct setting in a display that will look like the example below, except that you can see your cameras and the name of your wireless network.

    In short simple name you want to call the AirPort Expressof type... .as OfficeExpress, for example

    Click Next

    Watch the next screen carefully to confirm that the AirPort Express is in place to extend using Ethernet, which confirms that the installation wizard recovers the wired between the Time Capsule and AirPort ExpressEthernet cable connection, so the settings correct configuration will apply.

    When you see the message Setup is complete, click done. Close the installation window, and you're done.

  • Pop-up JavaScript window

    I use Javascript to open windows pop up to display Web sites, that I designed. The problem I have is when I open a site that is based on html and navigate the site than my Start button does not work when the user comes back on my design site. I'm not having the problem if the site being opened is instant based.

    These are the functions I use the vars are passed by an xml file. The first to close all open windows. The second is to open a new window.

    function closeWindow() {}
    getURL("javascript:myWin1.close();) ("void (0);");
    }

    openWin1 (address, winName, width, height, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, ars scrollb, resizable);
    }

    If I wait five seconds or if my Start button starts working again.

    If anyone has a clue as to why this happens, an answer would be greatly appreciated.

  • Time, battery, wifi, its etc in menu bar flickering after click

    After running updates of security for 10.9.5 yesterday, OS specific menu items flicker after you have clicked on each of them (put on with the button wifi, bluetooth, timemachine, volume level, battery and time.) Projector works fine and notifications). This making it inaccessible via the menu bar. Other buttons of applications work fine (Adobe Creative Cloud, Little Snitch, DigitalJuice). Also when I started this morning, the start screen has a loading bar appears for a short time. I can still access everything through the system preferences, however, prefer to make it work as it should. All proposals/solutions? Thank you.

    Try a reboot.

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  • No Wifi symbol in my menubar, network preferences or utilities. Can anyone help?

    I have a Mac Pro from early 2008. I am running Yosemite 10.10.5. I want to connect to my Panel solar sitter to the Mac via Wifi, but I can't, for the life of me, find any reference to Wifi anywhere on my Mac. There is no symbol in the menu bar, nothing in the applications, utilities, or anywhere where I can see. In ' about this Mac' Panel, it shows Wifi under network, but non-material. Network, in the preferences system, it shows no reference to Wifi or Airplay anywhere, so I can't allow it. I used the search on the Mac, but it returns no results. I am connected to the Internet via an Ethernet cable. I would assume Wifi will present on the list in Network preferences, but there is nothing. Am I missing something or is there no Wifi on this machine? Any advice would be appreciated.

  • HP 15-ac152sa laptop: wifi tab disappears from the network settings menu. Unable to connect to wifi

    I bought a new laptop. I connected to the WiFi network with no problems the first time. I have downloaded Microsoft office 2016 (home and student). The next time I turned on the laptop, the icon WiFi in the corner of the screen says "no connection available.

    On the tab "network and internet". There is no tab for WiFi. Initially, I managed to fix it by clicking on the 'network card', 'properties' and on the 'power management' tab, I unchecked the box indicating "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power. This fixed the problem... until the next time I turned on the laptop. It's the same thing and I am unable to connect to internet via WiFi.

    The single adapter in the list here is "Realtek PCI-e FE family controller #2". Still unable to connect to WiFi... Still no WiFi tab under settings "network and internet". Help, please!

    So, the problem was finally solved (fingers crossed!).

    Yes, the Internet access worked perfectly every time when it is connected through the Ethernet cable. Ultimately I phoned the helpline. They checked for the new driver updates (these have been already updated), restored the BIOS remotely and then restored the device to the factory settings. Start of the fault still took place intermittently. This indicates a hardware problem, and the unit was sent for repair.

    The idea was that when the WiFi did not work, the WiFi card wasn't physically visiable in the list of available adapters, nor has the Bluetooth adapter. Apparently in this device, the Bluetooth and WiFi functions are on the same network adapter and apparently those elements should not disappear from the list of available adapters. So the fact that they disappeared together intermittently indicated a hardware problem with the card.

    Now that I got my laptop back and I think that the WiFicard has been replaced. Hoping all is well now and I hope this post helps someone else.

    Thanks hp for fast and wonderful customer service.
