Trying to get a WRT54GX2 wireless router working with a WPC54G wireless card. The laptop and desktop both will access the Internet and work when hardwired through the router's Ethernet ports. When trying to access wireless, the Laptop shows to be connected to the router and also to Internet, but Internet Explorer can not access any websites. Suggestions? Thanks.

what ip address does the laptop get ?? ensure that the laptop is not set for a static ip add....and it gets an ip add from the router ..

Trying to get a 3rd Party Router working with BT I...

Hi,
I'm trying to move away from the HHub5 on our FTTC BT Infinity connection (40Mb/s). Eventually I settled on a TP-Link WDR 3600 N600 - the flavour which is happy to talk to cable modems and take an OpenWRT install.
So far I've hooked up a BT OpenReach "white box" modem using the HHub's RJ11 lead, going from the DSL filter into the OpenReach modem's DSL socket. The modem's DSL LED lights up solid green - which I presume is good? The TP-Link router is up & running fine with OpenWRT installed, I can connect to it over WiFi and I've hooked up its WAN connection to the OpenReach modem's LAN1 socket (LAN2 is blanked out).
But whatever I put in the router's PPPoE settings I just can't get an internet connection to come up. So far I've used '[email protected] (as it's set on the HHub) and a few other suggestions from the forums including 'anything you like' @btinternet.com and @btbroadband.com - nothing seems to get the connection going.
Is there something I've missed or can anyone suggest a solution?
Many thanks,
Steve
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sorry to answer my own question, but in case it helps anyone in the future:
I had to put my username in the username AND password fields - same details in both. I've not seen this written anywhere online, everyone says to leave the password field blank as it's unused.
So to recap - this is what got my TP-LINK WDR3600 (OpenWRT based) router working with Infinity: stick [email protected] in the PPPoE usernamd AND password fields.

Will a NAS Plugged into a Non-Airport Wireless Router work with TM?

Will a NAS Plugged into a Non-Airport Wireless-N Router work with TM?
I'm looking for a backup solution for my new MacBook Air and I don't want to spend $200 extra for a Time Capsule when an NAS would do the job.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

No. TM will not backup to any NAS other than Time Capsule

Will I lose all of my documents saved on my Time Capsule if I reset it in order to get the Airport wireless router working again?

Hello I am having problems with my Time Capsule (2nd Gen) and being able to get the wireless signal working throughout my house. I have concluded the only step I need to try to fix this is to reset the Time Capsule.
My concern is that if I reset the capsule I will lose all of the documents off of the external hard drive of the Time Capsule. Will this happen?
Is there anyway to avoid losing these files, or is there some way to attach a USB cord to the Time Capsule and be able to retrieve my files?
Thanks for any help out there.

Correct.. no files are lost in resets..
Plug the TC straight into the computer by ethernet.. use a LAN port of the TC. <-->
Factory reset.
The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Factory reset Gen 5
Hold in reset for about 5sec until the status light flashes quickly.
If your AirPort Time Capsule still doesn’t respond, do a similar reset to the Gen1-4.
Unplug your AirPort Time Capsule .. hold in reset and power the TC back on.. without releasing the reset.. wait until status led flashes rapidly.
When it comes backup the TC will have an IP of 10.0.1.1 and the computer will be 10.0.1.2
You can access all your files on the TC.. with very minimal setup.. but Mavericks can be a right royal pain.
If the disk doesn't show up in Finder.. manually mount it.
Go, Connect to Server..
AFP://10.0.1.1 and when the computer finds the resource it will ask for a password.. type in public unless you changed it.
You should now be able to access the files.
I recommend if you have important stuff on the TC you do not want to lose.. get a USB (or faster) drive today.. plug it into the computer and make a backup.. the TC is not adequate as a NAS or file server as it has no ability to either backup itself or even have TM back it up.

Trying to get my sound card to work with ArchLinux

Okay, let me tell you my problem. I'm still somewhat of a noob when it comes to linux so don't be hard on me . And, yes that's half of my problem, anyways I've got a sound card called the Soundblaster X-FI USB and I've been trying it to get it to work with the alsaconf command which hasn't worked of course Let me point out that whenever I use my backup flashdrive with PuppyLinux it the Alsaconf inside of it see's the card that I'm using and automatically sets it up.. Plus whenever I type the ' cat /proc/asound/cards ' command I get this..
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xefffc000 irq 21
1 [S51 ]: USB-Audio - SB X-Fi Surround 5.1
Creative Technology SB X-Fi Surround 5.1 at usb-0000:00:1d.2-2, full speed
*(The first one being my dead onboard audio)
So please help me out here I really want to have sound again and hey maybe I'll learn something new about linux!

there's some experimental driver that maybe makes it work with alsa, see here:
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=n … &px=Njc3NQ
My card is a USB which isn't compatible with the driver that they include. So no help there ;(. I've loaded Ubuntu recently and it has worked perfectly with my soundcard (Creative X-FI USB Surround 5.1) right out of the box. I personally think there has to be a way to get it to work in Archlinux since it worked in Ubuntu...
Although. I suppose I could just use Ubuntu but I'm more of a fan of Arch. So does anyone have any idea what Ubuntu used as in drivers wise to get my card to work in linux??

What wireless router works with this OS?

i have bought 2 different routers that are not compatible with this OS...anyone know what wireless router i can buy that will work with OS X Mountain Lion?

"Cisco Connect" seems to be support software which Cicso may not have updated for Mountain Lion. (It's hard to tell from the Cisco forums.)
Supposedly, many of the functions on Cisco routers can be controlled through the web interface.
Support software aside, jdcastaldo is right that the actual routing and wifi functions should be independent of the operating system of the clients.

Can a Wireless Router work with Comcast Cable

My son bought a WRT110 and gave up trying to get an internet connection to stay connected. I believe that the problem was the cable modem. Has anyone been successful?

He spent several hours with support in Argentina. They finally told him that the problem was the fact that his telephones were 2.4 MHz.

Trying to get lexmark Z708 printer to work with Snow Leopard

I've just set up a friend's new Mac, using 10.6.4; he's moved from Windows with his Lexmark X708 printer. I can't find any Z708 printing drivers that will work with SnowL - not on the installation 'extras' on the dvd, nor on apple or lexmark's pages (the 708 driver for 10.4 on lexmark's site doesn't work). is there a workaround or do i have to persuade him to fork out yet more for a new printer?

There is a "Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard > Printing, faxing and scanning forum you just missed it.

Trying to get a 2nd display to work with my MacBook

Hey,
I have the late 2008 aluminium MacBook. I'm trying to use a 1440x900 monitor as an alternative display for it using a mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter. However, I can't seem to get it working. The monitor either just shows a stock background, or if I use mirroring, it drops the resolution to the same as my MacBook.
Ideally, what I'd like to do, is use my magic mouse and keyboard plugged into my MacBook with the lid closed, but the display appearing on the bigger monitor. Can I do this?
Thanks

Both is expected behaviour when using external display with your MAcBook.

Apple calls this closed clamshell mode. See here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131

Trying to get a Wasp 800 to work with an iPad 2

Good Morning All,
Recently, my department has purchased a few iPad 2's, and we'd like to use a bluetooth scanner. One of our guys purchased a Wasp 800 thinking it would work because it's bluetooth. I tried it and called customer support twice this morning and didn't have any luck. I was curious if anyone here had any insight on this issue.
http://www.waspbarcode.com/scanners/cordless_barcode_scanner.asp

Just out of curiosity, read the wasp manual, and see what the bt protocols it uses are, then look at the specs for the pad3 and see if they are in the new one. Or, better yet, take you wasp down to the apple store next week, and try it there, see if it connects.
Won't help your issue with the current 2s, but would at least give you a hint about future purchases.
There were some older threads along the same lines, and while I cannot find it, someone did get a connect using a wired via the cck to the pad.
You may just have bought the wrong scanner. See the link below.

SB X-Fi XtremeGamer on Vista, trying to get Virtual Midi Keyboard to work with Reaso

I've got a Vista 32 quad core computer with the Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer sound card. I'm trying out Reason 4, an advanced music production program that needs a midi keyboard. I downloaded Maple Midi and Virtual Midi Keyboard so I can try it out without buying a real midi keyboard.
The Virtual Midi Keyboard makes no sound when the Maple Midi ports are selected which are the only ones that Reason 4 can see, and when selected Reason acknowledges when I press a note on the keyboard though no sound. the other Midi ports 2-SB X-Fi Synth A, B etc make sound but Reason 4 can't see them.
And then using Soundfont Bank Manager I see a virtual keyboard and it shows the 4 Maple Midi ports and makes noise with any of them selected but Reason 4 can't seem to see or select this virtual keyboard.
Any ideas? I'm new to music and audio editing, so it may be something obvious that I've overlooked.

Yes, its showing up in the device manager and states its working properly with no errors, I tried uninstalling/reinstalling it in 3 of my PCI slots.
The first time I installed it, I uninstalled my onboard sound like the intructions stated before I installed the new one, why I had to reformat and start from scratch so I can manually disable it in the BIOS because all that is on my partition.
The only thing that comes up with the card to pick from is my MIDI player, but nothing else, but even with that I get no sound because I cant raise the volume on any volume control.

Trying to get Oblivion and Morrowind to work with Commercial Wine

I hope this message is helpful and I hope to get some feedback about what could be improved about my approach. I researched some stuff I desided to do a free trial of Crossover "The commercial Wine" Which is more GUI and easier to configure. I've got Oblivion to install Sound works, graphics are supurb but it is VERRRY SLOW I've heard of Open GL but couldn't find it in the local community repo. Oblivion needs from what I understand is direct3d or the ActiveX that installs with the game disk. If there are any solutions. I'd be glad to hear them. Does Windows directX hinder the running of PC Games on a Linux system or would it be better to get the latest optimized Linux i686 DirectX?

Does Windows directX hinder the running of PC Games on a Linux system
Yes
would it be better to get the latest optimized Linux i686 DirectX?
There is none. directx is strictly microsoft stuff.
Wine translates directx calls to opengl calls on the fly.
The easiest way if wine doesn't work is to buy cedega, which would have pretty up to date directx "support".

How can I get my Canon A620 to work with Windows 7

Just signed up here, ot the brightest with tech stuff. I'm trying to get my Powershot A620 to work with Windows 7. I'm guessing there's drivers I need to down load ? Will they be on the Canon website or on this help site ?
I'll keep looking around.
Steve

If you need photo software and don't have any you can download Canon software here.
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/digital_cameras/powershot_a_series/powershot_a620#Dri...
But if you already have software you use there is nothing special you need. Ether connect the camera using a USB cable or remove the SD card from the camera and use a card reader (either an external one or the computer may already have one built in.)
If you decide to connect the camera via USB you don't need a driver; its built into W7.

Manually trying to set up Linksys wireless router.

To make a long story short I hit something on my macbook so that whenever I put a new application into the system it never loads the cd with the right program. I am trying to manually connect my wireless router. I know the default address for most Linksys routers is 192.168.1.1 and the login in is Admin and password is Admin. I am on the internet connection and I do not know how to find my server address? Iam pretty lost in this process. Any help as to where to get the server address or what I could do to fix my mac so that when I load a cd it opens the right application...
