How do i use my airport on a router that has a non wifi pc connected to it

i am traveling to my parents and want to use my aiport to get wifi. my fathers computer is not running on wifi. what do i need to do to get my airport to work with his router

If you have an AirPort Express, you can connect it to his router and create your own wireless "hotspot".
You will need to configure its "connection sharing" to "off (bridge mode)".
Make it look like this:
and this

  • How do I use my airport extreme with my FIOS router?

    How do I use my AirPort Extreme base station with my FIOS Router to extend my network?  I have hard disks connected to my AirPort Extreme and would lik to access them.

    Probably can't answer all your questions - but.... I use a Linksys (wired and wireless) router as my primary entry point for FIOS. I use a Time Capsule and an Airport Express as a common wireless connection. So I have two visibile wireless networks and use them both depending on where I am in the house. Both the TC and AEx can be seen either wirelessly or wired from the entire network. Note - the Linksys provides all the DHCP - you set the apple routers as "bridge mode."

    A question. Do I plug the TC into the Comcast modeum Router or the iMac?
    Both is good.. but at least one of your routers.. TC or express must be plugged into the router.. the imac can get internet connection by wireless.

  • HT4145 How can I use an Airport Extreme to act as a Range Extender for an Alcatel One Touch Y800Z WiFi modem/router? I get a message saying it cannot be extended. Thank you. Arup

    How can I use an Airport Extreme to act as a Range Extender for an Alcatel One Touch Y800Z WiFi modem/router? As we live in a rural area and our landline broadband speeds are awful, I have moved on to a 3G provider in the UK (EE/Orange) and set up the wireless modem which is working very well with an iMac. I have an Airport Extreme base station which was previously connected with an Ethernet cable to the landline router, and two Airport Express stations as Range Extenders. I would now like to use the Airport Extreme and the two Express stations to extend the range of the Alcatel WiFi device. I have tried automatic and manual set up with the Airport Utility but at the crucial step for selecting a network to extend, although the WiFi device is recognised, I get a message saying it cannot be extended.
    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    This is a problem with a lot of cheap end wifi hotspot like devices.. sometimes you can just swap the sim out to a real 3G wireless router.. that is a better approach IMHO than wireless repeater ever will be.
    In the meantime..
    Have a go with the suggestion.. place the express as wireless bridge. With a computer connected to the wifi from alcatel unit.. (I am amazed Alcatel still are in domestic market.. I thought they sold out). Set the express to join the wifi.. you do this in the airport utility.. old one is easy.. but in v6 you have to trust to luck so to speak and hope the auto setup works.. tell us if you have trouble.
    With the Express bridging.. you can then plug it by ethernet into the TC.. which will be in router bridge..
    ie
    You can then run the connection from wireless or ethernet on the TC.. and it will relay back to the alcatel for internet.. all a bit dodgy but who knows.. it may give you what you need.
    Wireless repeater is never particularly reliable in my experience. I would avoid it if possible.

  • How can I use my ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections.    The apple store clerk told me that I can't use airport express unless I also have a computer with me in the hotel.

    How can I use my Ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections?  The Apple store clerk told me that travel express won't work in my hotel unless I also have a computer.

    The issue with the Airport Express (or any of the Apple routers) is that you need the Airport Utility to configure it.  Airport Utility works on OSX and Windows, but not on the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch.)  It will work, if you can preconfigure the Airport correctly ahead of time, but you'd be stuck if you did need to reconfigure while at the hotel.
    You can use most any other router that is configured with a web page, which means you have a chance of configuring with Safari on the iPad.  If you want something somewhat portable, I use a "travel router" made by D-Link. The current model is the DAP-1350.  Other companies make similar travel routers, but I have no experience with the others.

  • How can i use the airport time capsule as a external hard drive?

    how can i use the airport time capsule as a external hard drive?

    Why do you recommend not place things like iTunes libraries or photo libraries on the drive? It was what I am looking for...
    I suggest that you ask the experts over in the iPhoto Support Community about their opinions on placing an iPhoto or Aperture library on the Time Capsule....even if you plan to use a wired connection for your Mac and the Time Capsule.
    But, if Terrence Devlin answers, be prepared for a lecture about why you should not ever do this.
    If you place the iTunes library on the Time Capsule, be prepared for iTunes to give you messages about not being able to find the library.
    In addtion, LaPastenague has the answer for you in a nutshell......corruption problems.
    Bottom line....the Time Capsule is for your backups.....not "everyday" files and especially not libraries.

  • How can I use an AirPort Extreme to expand a normal Wi-Fi router range?

    I used to use my AirPort Extreme as my router, connecting it to an old modem I had. Recently, I had some problems with that modem and had it changed. Now, the new one is also a router, so I decided to use it instead of the AirPort Extreme. However, I don't want to let such an expensive router not doing anything, so I decided I would use it to expand the range of my new router/modem. Is it possible to expand the range of a non-Airport Extreme/Express router, like mine? I tried configuring it to "Expand a network", and it was even in "Bridge Mode", but even with those configurations, it's yellow light kept blinking and AirPort Utility said that it the AirPort Extreme wasn't being able expand the network, and told me to check if the normal router was on and if AirPort Extreme was within its range, and the answer is an obvious yes for both (I can assure you it's within range). Am I doing something wrong, or is it simply not possible?

    Is it possible to expand the range of a non-Airport Extreme/Express router, like mine?
    Yes, if you connect the AirPort Extreme to one of the LAN <-> ports on the modem/router using a wired Ethernet connection.
    Extremely unlikely if you are asking about having the AirPort Extreme connect wirelessly to the modem/router and extend or repeat the signal in that manner.
    The reason for this is that Apple designs their routers to only the extend the signal from another Apple router wirelessly.

  • How do I use AO update in the Route signal.vi

    Hi support,
    My goal is to create a waveform (to buffer it) and output it using the analog card (PCI-6713) N times and with the frequency F. Apperanlty this is done using a (actually 2) digital counter(s) on the PCI-6602 card.
    This is done using route signal.vi using "AO update". However I have not managed to get it working. I only get error -10341. So my questions are how do I do it? More specificly how do I use AO update in the Route singal.vi Do I need to conect the cards in any perticular way (cabels or so)? Also do you have more information about how the vi route signal works (the help file does not help me much)?
    Grateful for all help.
    I'm using labview 6.0 as developpement platform, and using the PCI-6601, PCI-67
    13 and a PCI-7344 cards. Since the program is quite large I will only send a portion of it, the pulseGen is supposed to generate the waveform (loaded as a text file, also submitted) the digital output used is in case 1 (in pulseGen) the analog output is in case 3. The MissingWaveform.vi is just to ensure that a waveform is supplied to the pulseGen.vi
    Sorry about the mess.

    Cabling and Interfacing between Boards: You have capability for direct simultaneous connection between 6713 and 6602 (also 6601) via the RTSI bus, but you need to get a cable to connect between the boards. You can connect between the boards using the I/O pins of their respective signal conditioning hardware. These connections are slower. There are also PFI (Programmable Function Interfaces) connections that are set within the VI's.
    All that said, it is not obvious why you want to use the RTSI. You can use the PCI-6713 to generate AO. Presumably you have some signal conditioning accessory; which ever pin of that accessory the AO appears on, you wire it over to the SC accessory for the 6601 and the appropriate pin for the counter gate or
    source you want to use.
    Suggestions: Don't try to work in the context of your big VI for now. Get the AO bit and the counting bit to work together by themselves. Then shoe-horn them into the big VI. Also, consider a call to the NI help line. They are very good. 800.433.3488 (800IEEE488)
    In case you hadn't noticed the DAQ cards and Counter/Timer cards come in different flavors and there are specific example VI's to suit. 6602 uses NI-TIO chip, but PCI-671X are DAQ-STC. Again the NI help people are good at catching this kind of stuff.
    Your question is rather large and hard to manage. Perhaps if you break it down into small chunks the advise will be more free flowing.

  • How do I use icloud to restore my documents that were in Pages? Pages got stuck in "waiting" to update and when nothing else worked I deleted it and reloaded Pages. I don't want to restore everything just my Pages documents.

    How do I use icloud to restore my documents that were in Pages? Pages got stuck in "waiting" to update and when nothing else worked I deleted it and reloaded Pages. Everything I can find is about wiping everything out and restoring everything. I don't want to restore everything just my Pages documents (and numbers and keynote that also locked up during updating).

    What I meant is turn off Documents and Data in iCloud in OS X. Keep it on on your iOS devices. iCloud will sync documents between the iOS devices and make them available on the iCloud web site, but it won't mess up iWorks' open and save dialog boxes. It also won't assume that you want all your documents in iCloud, which I think is undesirable anyway.
    Keep iOS and OS X separate, and use the web site to move files between the two as necessary.
    iOS iWork is different from OS X iWork. There are fewer fonts on an iOS device. iOS iWork programs have slightly different feature sets than OS X iWork programs, and the file formats are different. iCloud automatically converts the file format when necessary, but if you make a habit of saving things directly to iCloud, you are limited to the lowest common denominator between the two versions of iWorks. So why would anyone want iWork on the Mac to open and save documents on iCloud by default?
    If you want to store files in the cloud and sync them on your Macs, SugarSync is a much better solution. It lets you choose your sync folders, it doesn't make you reorganize your files, it lets you sync all file types, it doesn't convert files to a different format and back, and it stores everything in the cloud, too. Just the simle act of saving a file backs it up and syncs it. I wouldn't live without it. iCloud is best with iTunes purchases and synchronizing Mac settings and iOS files; I woudln't live without it. The two make an unbeatable combination.

  • How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?

    How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?
    It works nicely over home wifi, but for example, i am sitting in my car, phone is in my pocket and I'm using the iPad, call comes in and i don't want to start digging for my phone.
    Is there any way?
    devices:
    iPad mini cellular (no SIM card at the moment)
    iPhone 5S
    Thanks!

    well yes, but it basically makes wifi for the other devices, it basically mimics wifi.
    as i get from your answer, it is not possible?
    it would be common sense to make it work this way also. directly from device to device. no bounce between WiFi router
    Then again, common sense is not that common these days...

  • I got an iPhone 4 while I was living in Japan. How can I use it in the states now that I live here?

    I was using an iPhone 4 while I was living in Japan. How can I use it in the states now that I live here? It is a perfectly good phone and I don't want to use it only as an iPod and camera.

    That's one option. The other is to sell it (you can probably get close to what you paid for it) or trade it in and get a new unlocked phone directly from an Apple store. That way you can use it in the US, and also in Japan when you return there.
