Connecting to third-party WEP router

I have a wireless router with a WEP hexadecimal password I can change and choose from 64-bit (10 digit password required) or 128 bit (26 digit password required). I have had no problem connecting computers and a wireless printer to it. However, AX is not joining my wireless network with encryption enabled.
My wireless network has maintained a 64bit(40bit) 10 digit hex password throughout most of the process and I have tried multiple variations of WEP passwords for AX through airport utility manually attempting 64 bit(40bit), 128 bit and transitional with and without "$" in front, (having to reset AX each time!?!? - why is AX not found by airport utility when it cannot connect to my network)
AX will connect to my network when I disable encryption and it works well, but if I then disable SSID Broadcast, AX losses connection even if I manually type in network name. (my printer still has no problem). I have most recent software and firmware updates.
Any suggestions?

fuego, Welcome to the discussion area!
Do you have some device which is ONLY compatible with 64/40 bit WEP? The only reason you should be asking that is if you have a device which isn't compatible with something better. 64/40 bit WEP is extremely weak and not recommended for use anymore.
Have you tried using 128 bit WEP with a full 26 hexadecimal (13 ASCII) character password? Usually that eliminates any WEP incompatibilities between devices.
If all of your devices are compatible with WPA2 or WPA you should try that instead of WEP. Those are much more secure.

  • Connect AE to third party wireless router

    Hi all,
    Here's what I'm trying to do:
    I have a Airport Extreme base that I want to connect to a non Apple wireless router (ISP wireless router). Anybody managed to do that?
    I tried setting up the base as WDS connnecting to my third party wireless router but without any success. I can make all the connections, save my AE settings, but when I choose the newly set AE Base, I'm not connected.
    Help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Most likely not, as very few non-AirPort routers can be extended with the AirPorts in a WDS. (ref: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php?title=WDSLinked_routernetwork)
    You can, however, connect the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) to most non-AirPort routers, via Ethernet, and then set up the AEBS as a bridge.

  • AX as client with third party modem/router

    Like others, I'm having trouble getting my AX to join an existing network from my third party modem/router (in this case a Siemens SE 515 dsl). After 2 days of sifting posts, changing settings and reset after reset, I'm about to take the thing back or just toss it out the window. I really only want to use the AX for AirTunes but do want to be able to surf at the same time.
    My modem/router is set as PPPoE with login details and PPPoE pass-through is enabled, as is NAT. The modem is set to get IP address automatically. WEP-128 is on and I've activated MAC access control (and am sure it's the correct id for the Airport). It's set for DHCP in the range 192.168.1.xx. WDS is activated and the router detects other devices around the place.
    In Network settings on my Powerbook I've selected PPPoE and also entered the login details here. In the TCP/IP tab, IPv4 is automatically set to PPP and the computer gets an IP address but it's in 84.xxx... range. Internet access works fine when I use these settings.
    Now, reset the AX, in Airport Admin I set it to client (I don't need to extend the network), entered the WEP key and selected the router network name from the pop-up menu. In the Internet tab I select DHCP, in music tab AirTunes is on and I've entered a speaker name. Click update, then...
    Nothing happens.
    Well, not quite. The orange light on the AX is flashing. When I go into iTunes, the Airport is listed in the pop-up at bottom right but when I select it, iTunes says it is trying to connect and, after a while, fails. Airport Admin can no longer find the AX either.
    My hunch is that this is something to do with IP addresses but I really have no idea. Any hints gratefully received.

    1. your modem/router should not have "PPPoE pass-through" enabled. The PPPoE connection with your ISP must be handled by the modem/router itself - not by your Mac. The modem/router should be functioning as a NAT router, and all the wireless clients (like your Mac and the Airport Express) of the modem/router should be connecting to it using DHCP.
    2. I don't know why you activated WDS on the modem/router. It isn't necessary, and whatever WDS flavor is supported by this modem/router won't be supported by the Airport Express. Turn it off.
    3. On the Powerbook, in System Preferences->Network->Show Airport - (a) under the PPPoE tab the box to "connect using PPPoE should NOT be checked and (b) under the TCP/IP tab the only selection should be to configure using DHCP.
    Before proceeding to the next steps, you must now make sure your Mac is still able to access the internet wirelessly.
    4. Do a factory default reset of the Airport Express. Temporarily switch wireless network connections on the Mac from your modem/router to that of the Airport Express. Run the Airport Admin Utility. In the Airport Admin Utility, select the mode to be "join an existing wireless network". Below that, type in the SSID of your modem/router. Enter the same WEP type and WEP key as used on your modem/router. Make any other configuration changes required under the Music tab, then update settings to the Airport Express. When finished, switch the wireless network connection on the Mac back to that of your modem/router.
    5. If you still have trouble, remove all security (MAC address filtering and WEP) from your modem/router and see if you can then get the Airport Express to connect as a client.

  • ABAP source code to connect to third party systems using web service calls?

    Hi all,
              can any one provide an example ABAP source code to connect to third party systems using web service calls? The base system is CRM.

    Do you want to call a web service in a remote system, or do you want to provide a web service?
    If you want to call a web service you should create a proxy object via SE80. Open your development package, right click on the tree entry and choose: Create -> Enterprise Service / Web Service -> Proxy Object and provide the needed information (including the WSDL description file). You may then use the proxy object to call the web service (if the connection and everything else works right).

  • Does PI need a direct connection to third party or can work with a proxy server based connection to third party?

    does PI need a direct connection to third party or can work with a proxy server based connection to third party?

    Hi,
    It basically includes 3 systems, one is our ECC sender system, middle one is PI box and third one is the receiver system. Data is successfully reaching to PI system from our sender system.Now we want to forward this to our third party system from PI box.
                                                                    I want to know that such sending of data requires direct connection to third party or it can be done by proxy server based connection to third party.If it is possible then what are the steps to do this?

  • Connecting to third-party router, but unable to browse or e-mail

    I am using an Airport Extreme card in my PowerBook G4 running firmware version 405.1 (3.90.34.0.p18). Our office Wi-Fi access is through a third-party router. We used to use MAC address filtering, and I had no problem accessing the network.
    Recently, for reasons unclear to me, our IT director ditched the MAC address filtering in favor of the WPA-personal standard. I was able to enter the encryption key and get connected to the network, but I wasn't able to get my browser to access the internet, nor send or receive e-mail traffic.
    Our IT folks temporarily disabled all security and restarted the wireless router, but I was still only able to connect to the router, and not use my browser or e-mail, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the use of WPA per se. I tried temporarily turning off my own firewall, too, but the problem remained.
    Oddly, I can open up the Terminal and Ping successfully to an outside address -- only http and e-mail traffic seems to be blocked. The Windows-based PCs seem to be able to connect to the wireless network and use their browsers to access the internet without any problem. Any thoughts as to what else I might try, or have the IT administrators try, to resolve the problem?
    Thanks,
    Sid

    Hello kilgores. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Something to ask your IT staff is if they use a proxy server for Internet access. If so, do they require proxy configuration scripts (.pac) to provide access to the Internet through your company's firewall. This information would normally be added to your browser's settings.

  • Connecting a third party router to accompany actiontec router?

    So I'm thinking about ordering a second router but I don't want to replace the actiontec router that Verizon supplied me, only because I don't have any clue what to do with my STB's so I'm going to leave the Actiontec specifically for that reason. I have the exact same setup with this exact router at my father's house and nothing seems to have gone wrong. Except that we hooked up an extra room specifically for the third party router. This time, I have nowhere for that to happen, so I was thinking about buying a moca bridge and plugging it in to an existing coaxial jack which another STB is plugged into. If I did this with the new router and simply gave only the one STB internet connection via Ethernet through the third party router, and left the rest on the actiontec, would it still work without messing anything up? Thank you.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I'm not exactly clear what it is you want to accomplish, but if I understand correctly that you want to have an Ethernet connection for a single device in another part of your house, a part of the house where there's an existing coax feed, then a MoCA adapater should do the trick for you.
    If indeed you're just trying to get that single Ethernet connection you won't need another router.  You can plug the Ethernet device directly into the output of the MoCA adapter.
    If you need more than one Ethernet connection after the MoCA adapter what you can use is a simple and inexpensive Ethernet switch.  Again, you don't need another router.
    The only case I can envision for needing a second router in your situaiton is if you want to use it to extend WiFi coverage, but just  for Ethernet connection(s) a second router is not needed and may be counter productive.

  • How to connect to third party using PI for outbound and inbound interfaces

    Hello,
    I have scenarios where I have data coming in from third party EDI subsystem and sent to SAP. And also from SAP to EDI subsystem. We need to send the XMLs to the EDI subsystema nd also receive XMLs.
    Can someone please suggest the ways I can connect to EDI subsytem for both Outbound and Inbound interfaces.
    Thanks

    Hi Prabhu,
    EDI file is different from the normal flat or xml file. Hope you understand the difference.
    Now if your EDI subsytem has the capability of converting the xml file to edi file viceversa then create and receive the xml file from the EDI subsystem. For the xml file you may use the file adapter as an option.
    If it doesnot have the capability then seeburger adapter needs to  be used. This is not an inbuilt adapter. So your company needs to purchase it.

  • Connecting to third party software from R/3

    Hi Interface Gurus,
    I have to communicate with a software program lying on AS400(i series) system from R/3. Please let me know the process i need to follow to talk to this software.
    It would be of help if you can suggest how and what are the settings and steps i need to take to make a RFC call to this program from R/3.
    Thanks in advance
    Rupendra

    Hi Rupendra,
        In order to communicate with a third party software, you need to establish a connection first and then it can send and receive the messages.
    For all these settings to be done you need to contact your Basis person, who will setup the RFC destination and sender details and other basic needs.
    Hope it helps!!!!
    Do not forget to assign points, if helpful.

  • Connecting to third party JMS Queue using Patchbay

    Hi All,
    We are trying to connect to a third party JMS queue configured in a remote weblogic server using ATG patcbay. We have configured the provider in dynamoMessagingSystem.xml and created a InitialContextFactory and provided all the queue configurations.
    When it tries to initializes it is trying to create a dynamic queue and saying that JMSHelper class is not configured so that it cannot create the queue (The queue exists in the remote server). When we given configurations based on the details available under C:\ATG\ATG10.0.3\WebLogic\JMSProvider, it is saying that we have to provide a TopicConnectionFactory (We dont need to use any Topics). If we provide TopicConnectionFactory then it will say that your connection factory don't have any Topics configured.
    I have read that for configuring with your application server's queue, this will try creating dynamic queues, but nowhere it is mentioned that how it will differentiate it is a third party queue or an application server queue.
    In our case the application server and the remote server which acts as queue server are Weblogic.
    Not sure why this is behaving like this and there is no proper documentation available in ATG that how to configure the third party queues using Patchbay.
    Any pointers regarding this would be of great help.
    Thanks,

  • Connections with third-party source control - will they be retained?

    I have RoboHelp installed on my hard drive. Company is swapping out my hard drive and I will need to reinstall it.
    All my RH projects are connected to a third-party source control mechanism (Visual SourceSafe).
    When I reinstall RH, will the connections to Visual SourceSafe be retained for all my projects?

    Hi,
    Just getting the latest version should work. I had a similar problem after a crash. RoboHelp can't detect which projects are in the VSS database, but after getting them, it all worked fine.
    You may however still want to backup your projects on a removable media to be sure. After the reinstall, just make sure the VSS client in installed, copy your project from the media and get back to work -- Could it be that simple? Well, it was for me.

    Thanks for your immediate response.
    Can you please explain me the technical point of view for fetching the data from a third party application using web service? Which method would be correct for this (i.e., BAPI/FM/FG/Message Interface)? What is the step by step process to fetch data? If I use a function module, how do I pass the data to the web service? Can you give me some more inputs to it?
    Please help.

  • ESR connectivity with third party systems

    Hi all
    As given in the documents related to PI 7.1. Services from SAP CE and SAP PI can be configured into ESR. Is it possible to configure a webservice hosted by third party into ESR and any guidlines present for the same. Any pointers will be helpful.
    Thnaks a lot
    Manohar.

    Hi,
    Ok, i think that should be no problem, it may seem confusing but in fact the ESR is just a kind of Design Repository where Service Definitions without any context to a concret system are stored.
    The Service Registry (which i think you are looking for) is another thing, you can publish Service Defintions also
    from the ESR or the Integration Directory into the Service Registry, but i don't think that is necessary in the usage you like to achieve.
    You can do that "directly" by publishing it either with the UDDI Api or on the web interface of the service registry
    which lays under the url <host>:<port>/sr (see tab publish) or this blog:
    /people/bv.pillai/blog/2007/11/12/new-service-registry-ui-in-nwce-netweaver-composition-environment-71--sp3
