Trying to add two AP's to the AEBS(n) - no luck - any ideas?

Hi everyone, here's my situation. I ran a network in my house on Belkin routers (7230-4 and 2 7231-4's) for a while now. One router was the main router, the other two were Access Points to enable my TiVo's (not wireless capable by themselves) to become wireless by using USB-to-Ethernet adapters between the TiVo's and the AP's, and then the AP's "made" them wireless. I had no problems with everyone "seeing" each other on the network.
I bought an AEBS(n) with the intention of replacing my main router, and keeping the 2 AP's as they are. I want to keep the same setup as above.
I went in and reset one of the AP's, since I needed to change the MAC address of the main router that was needed in the setup. Plugged it back in, changed the settings on the AEBS to enable WDS, added the MAC addresses of both AP's, and I was a happy camper. Everything worked, I had access to both the AP and the TiVo, so I figured I would do the same thing on the second AP.
I made the exact changes on the second AP, but this one doesn't work - or, a better description would be that it is incredibly slow. If I want to access the second AP (from my computer, wirelessly) or the second TiVo, I very rarely get a connection - nost of the times it tells me I can't open the page. Not only that, but it slows down my accessing the first AP or TiVo. If I unplug the second AP, everything goes back to normal, zooming along.
My question is: is there a problem with the AEBS handling more than 1 AP on WDS? I can't believe the problem would be the second AP, since it's setup exactly like the first one. They should all "play" together nicely, and yet they don't. If I look at the logs on the AEBS, it looks like it constantly connects and disconnects with the AP's - like every 6-10 seconds there's an entry undoing the previous one (connect - disconnect - connect - disconnect etc). Is there another setting that I should make to enable more than one AP, or to let them be connected to the main station for more than a few seconds?
Also, how can I see what computers are connected to the AEBS at one time by IP? It seems like it shows some by MAC address, but I can't really see an updated list on the DHCP screen (I turn off my computer, and it's still being shown in the list).
A third question is (last one, I promise) why does the AEBS asign IP addresses all over the place? I would expect it to start with 2 and move on from there, but it assigns them like 2, then 200, then 3, then 199 - and that's a problem since my TiVo's are supposed to be 200 and 199, and it doesn't seem to release these IP's even after the computers to which they were assigned are turned off.
Any help on the above would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

Update: I just made sure that the AP's go through the main router (AEBS) and do not talk to each other directly (which is what they were trying to). I managed to restrict access to them so that only that AEBS (and the other computers through the AEBS, not directly) talks to them. After this everything was smooth sailing.

    When trying to update my apps I get the message, "unknown error occurred", any ideas how to fix this?

    I really thought signing out would do because that works frequently for the unknown error message. Try these two things.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.
    Or this ... The old stand by....
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • How to add two X Axis in the Column chart?Need Help

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to add two X axis in the SSRS column chart.Can someone please help how to add two X axis. I tried the secondary axis for horizontal axis but current x axis is shifting to other side, second X axis is not coming.
    Regards
    Jon

    Hi Jon,
    According to your description, you want to add secondary X axis for one series in a column chart, right?
    The secondary axis is useful when comparing two value sets with two distinct data ranges that share a common category. In Reporting Services, it’s not supported to create two X axis for one series. We can create secondary X axis when there are two series
    in a column chart. As we tested in our local environment, we can add secondary X axis for specific series. Please refer to the screenshots below:
    So I would like to know what’s your exact needs about creating two X axis for one series. If possible please share some detail information about your data and expected looking of the chart.
    Reference: Plot Data on a Secondary Axis (Report Builder and SSRS)
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best regards,

    Make the back of the car a 3D layer. Add a camera. Animate the camera so the motiion looks right.
    Another option, track something in the frame that is in the same plane as the back of the car. Track scale. Apply the tracked scale information to the back of the car layer.
    A better way to get better suggestions. Post a screenshot of the video or better yet, upload the video to You-tube and let us see what you are trying to do.

    My i-Pad won't charge after I downloaded some stuff from i-Tunes.  I have tried charging through two computers and using the wall socket,, with different cables.  I have turned the i-Pad off & on a couple of times but it still won't charge.  Any ideas will be gratefully received.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • Itunes and all my movies have disappeared,i can no longer add to library from my external hdd which ive always used and can only add from the laptops own hard drive,any ideas what the issue could be?

    ive recently updated, itunes and all my movies have disappeared,i can no longer add to library from my external hdd which ive always used and can only add from the laptops own hard drive,any ideas what the issue could be?if i transfer the movies from the external to the laptop they will add to the library without any problem so theres no issue with the laptop but when i go to add file in itunes i can path to the external but as soon as i select the file nothing happens, just goes back to itunes

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

    Mac doesn't boot
    Can you hear the fans and hard drive and see the white boot screen? Flashing question mark? The circle just runs and nothing happens? Only black screen and nothing else? These can be very helpful to diagnose the source of the problem. [1]
    Flashing question mark [2]: This is usually a sign of a failed hard drive. This indicates that boot up volume can not be found.
    Black screen: This is usually a sign of a failed logic board. There is no single reason for this and this may be caused by failed GPU, screen, CPU or RAM.
    Circle of death/no circle/blue screen: This is usually a sign of a hard drive failure. This may NOT be a dead hard drive, just broken permissions or something
    Gray screen/Apple logo/spinning gear or globe/prohibitory sign/folder with flashing question mark [3]: This could be a sign of faulty hardware but more likely a software issue, i.e. broken permissions, failed software update, etc.
    [edit]
    What to do
    First, hold down the option key (also known as the alt key) just after you've pressed the power button. This should show all the available options to boot from, so if you have Windows installed through Bootcamp or a disk in your SuperDrive, you should be able to see them along with your OS X drive/partition. Select the OS X partition with arrow keys and press enter. Startup key combinations
    If that doesn't help continue doing the steps from below:
    1. SMC reset [4]. Shut down and unplug all cables including power cord for at least 30 seconds and then plug in power cord and keyboard/mouse.
    2. PRAM reset [5]. Hold down option, command, P and R while booting. Start it when you hear the sound and don't let go before it reboots.
    3. Safe boot [6]. Hold down shift while booting to boot into safe mode. If this works, open Disk Utility from Utilities and repair your permissions and verify the disk
    4. Hardware test [7]. Insert the install disk (disk 1 in Mac which shipped with OS X 10.5.4 or earlier, disk 2 if shipped with OS X 10.5.5 or newer) and hold down "D" before the grey boot screen opens. Follow on screen instructions
    5. Boot from install disk. Boot from the disk that came with your Mac. Hold C while booting. Select Disk Utility from top bar and repair permissions and verify the disk. Reboot normally and see if it works now.
    6. Boot from another Mac (Firewire target disk mode). Connect the machines with a Firewire cable. Power on your Mac and press T. Select the other Mac's hard drive. Download the current OS X combo update. Run the combo update installer and select the drive that won't boot as the destination.
    7. "Repair" OS X. Boot from the install disk as in point 5. and reinstall OS X. This should NOT erase any data, just replaces the system files which may have caused your booting problem. Now install the latest combo update for OS X and repair permissions on your drive with Disk Utility.
    7.1. Install OS X into an external hard drive and then boot from it [8] and try to copy your data from the hard drive before proceeding. If you have done a backup recently, you don't have to do this.
    8. Restore OS X from Time Machine backup. Boot from the disk that came with your Mac and choose the Time Machine restore option. This step will lose any changes made since your last backup but the system and your data will be put back to exactly as it was on that date.
    8.1 Reinstall OS X. Boot from the install disk as in point 5. and select Disk Utility again. Now erase the whole hard drive and install OS X again. If you had a Time Machine backup and step 7 worked you don't have to do this.

  • Im trying to install a new application on my mac but it keeps on coming up with 'The volume of this disk does not meet the requirements for this update' any ideas how to solve this?

    I have recently fully updated my mac to 10.8.2 and i am trying to install a small facebook application but every time i come to chose the disk it says ' OS X facebook developer preview can not be installed on this disk. This volume of this disk does not meet the requirements for this update' any ideas on how to get round this?
    thanks

    That may be the new Mountain Lion "sandbox" protective software kicking in, possibly, because ML "thinks" that App doesn't meet ML's new strict security requirements.   A common phenomena.  If you feel the 3rd party App is really OK, you can override this feature and install the new App by holding down the Command key when you click to install the new App.  That's one possibility for the error message appearing.  If not, another possibility is that that Developer Preview software package requires some previous piece of software be installed prior to downloading this Preview.  You would have to check the Facebbok websiste's Developer Forums for help if this is the case.
    Hope this helps
