[WRV200] Two SSID and remote control?

Hi,
I have a WRV200 and need to setup a wifi access for a place that is shared. So two questions:
1. How can I have two SSIDs, one for me, one for visitors with my router? Is it by setting up a VLAN ?
If yes, would those persons be able to access the Internet using a separate WPA2 key?
2. I will need to remotely configure that shared wifi by replacing the WAP key now and then, not the
main key for my private access, only the one for visitors. Is it possible to remotely connect to my
router (dynamic IP address, not static) and configure it remotely so each time a new visitor shows
up, I can change her/his WPA2 key ?
If yes, what do I need? Some kind of OpenDNS service?
The idea is for a house that is rented during vacation time. Each time a new visitor would show up,
I'd have to set a new key so the renter can access the Internet for the rental time, and then change
the key remotely to disable access until the next visitor.
Thanks for any clarification.
Steve

Hi Steve,
Yep I have to admit I have for some time  personally used DynamicDNS because I am too thrifty to buy a fixed IP.
I guess for the silly reason Dyndns was the first in the list of choices in the management gui. .
Next time you buy a Small Business Wireless  Router, move away from the End of Life WRV200 product  have a look at the new RV120W or  RV220W wireless routers,
But the older WRV200 allow for remote management, if you know it's IP address or domain name (via DYNDNS or TZO).
Have fun.
regards Dave

  • Unplugging all network devices from Fios router prevents DVR freezing and remote control lock ups.

    All,
    I recently had a Verizon tech visit my house due to constant DVR and remote control freezing. TV content was freezing whether it was locally recorded, pulled from another DVR in the house, or On Demand. On a hunch after the tech tested everything and was about to leave, he unplugged my gigabit switch from the Fios router. Lo and behold everything started running perfectly. Since to the tech, the problem was solved, he closed the case and was on his way. The probem is of course I have more devices than the built in router switch provides ports for. My network is compised of an 8 port Netgear gigabit switch downstream from the Fios router with two wireless access points (with their own built in gigbait switches) connecting to the Netgear gigabit switch. There are no loops in the switch topology. I've tried changing out the router, the gigabit switch, removing the wireless acces points individually as well as plugging the access points directly into the Fios router switch (one at a time with no Netgear switch in the middle) and all scenarious cause the DVR/remote control freeezing to come back. The only devices I can plug into the Fios router without causing freezes are PC's....anything with it's own switch essentially brings the network to it's knees. If anyone has an idea how to get my network back in one piece AND make the DVR's/remotes behave, I'd greatly appreciate the help!
    My Fios equipment:
    MI-424WR GEN-3I  rev I (eye) running firmware 40.19.36
    5 Motorola HD-DVRs all QIP 7232-2 running software release 1.9.1 platform build 25.39 (Oct. 22, 2012)
    Specific config:
    75/35 Fios connecting via ethernet from ONT. Set-top boxes connect to Fios router coax port via powered splitter.
    *All SNR/dB mesasurements taken by the tech from the set-top boxes and router are well within spec.
    Fios router provides DHCP addressing. Wireless N access points are configured for roaming with the same SSID and non-overlapping channels. Access points are not providing routing or IP adressing...all layer 3 and up services still provided by Fios router

    I am inclined to echo several of the "tns" comments, particularly with respect to your splitter.  My layout is based on a standard 8-port splitter of the type usually supplied in a VZ install.  In addition I do have a ChannelPlus device that functions as a powered splitter, but its use is limited to distribution of secondary TV signals to older analog TVs.  My first point then is that this may be an offender as "tns" has suggested.
    In addition, I'd describe your wiring as "non-standard" (red-colored items in the above diagram)  As you're no doubt aware, with 75/35 you don't really need Cat5e from the ONT (your original diagram).  It seems the highest tiers do require it, but in "standard" installations this run is coax directly to an 8-port non-powered splitter (below diagram), then from that splitter via coax to all STBs and CableCards, other TVs, et.), and also to the Actiontec.   Subsequent feeds from the Actiontec to wired devices (including WAPs) are via Ethernet (typically Cat 5e).
    In fact I don't immediately see how your STBs get additional services such as On Demand and IMG with the wiring shown in your diagram (perhaps someone can help me out here).  In "standard" installs the Actiontec must be connected via coax to the ONT to provide such services to other network clients.  I don't see that requirement being met here.
    For starters I'd recommend that you change your service from WAN Ethernet to WAN coax.  This can easily be accomplished over the telephone.  Then I'd run coax directly from the ONT to the Actiontec as in my revised diagram below (blue-colored items).  If your setup can manage with this arrangement, I think it will help greatly with the "freezing" issue.

    Subsequent Note:  You provided additional info while I was composing a response, and I'd  like to offer another comment.  Structured wiring "panels" of the type usually available are pre-configured to provide data, phone and video.  This usually means that one is in certain respects limited by the ideas of the panel designer.  I have what can be called a structured wiring layout, but it really is composed of individual small custom networks for  each service (automation, security, video, data, telco, etc.), configured so that all wiring terminates in "home run" fashion at a central panel (a few details here: http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Home-Networking/Cmon-Show-Us-Your-Network/m-p/481733#M765 ).  This layout makes it easier to make adjustments (and there have been quite a few over the intervening years).  I'm thinking that in your case you may have to abandon the powered splitter (presumably) built into the panel in order to avoid your present fix.
    Subsequent Subsequent Note:   From your description it seems that you are using more than a single "whole house" DVR to supply programming to other devices.  This is a bit puzzling to me because somewhere along the line I recall reading that only a single whole house DVR was allowed on the network.  Can you elaborate a bit?

  • Fingerprint and remote control supported on Satellite P100-387

    Does p100-387 have a fingerprint and remote control? Please, somebody answer me.
    Thanks.

    Hi
    In my knowledge the Satellite P100-387 does not support the fingerprint reader and is not delivered with remote control.
    But you are right.
    The fingerprint and remote control are optional and some notebooks from the P100 series support the fingerprint reader and are delivered with remote control.
    I found also this site with the hardware specification of P100-387:

    Use 2nd gen apple tv and remote control app on iphones and ipad.  We can control some functions on the apple tv but unable to purchase, access such controls as reset, restart, turn off home sharing, etc.  Home sharing stuck on old apple ID. Please help.

    That is why I said to restore via iTunes, did you check the link?
    This will put it back to factory settings and you can set it up with the new ID once you reconnect with your HDTV. This is not done via ethernet, as per the link you need to connect to the computer via micro usb. You cannot bypass home sharing.
    FYI: An Apple ID cannot be deleted so the old one would still exist (even if you no longer use the email account it is associated with).

  • Policy Packages and Remote Control

    Hi-
    I've been slowly but surely setting up ZFD 3.2 on a Netware Small
    Business 6 Server. I'm getting very close, I have auto import
    seemingly
    working, I can initiate chat with the workstation, but not remote
    control or view. I'm pretty sure it's a policy issue, but I'm having
    trouble visualizing where the various policies are supposed to be in
    the
    tree in relation to the workstation objects, the user objects, and the
    server objects.
    It doesn't help that our system has grown quite a bit and our tree is
    probably pretty messy. I wouldn't mind a good resource for a visual representation of a "good, clean tree" for a company with two
    locations
    and two servers...
    Any help would be much appreciated- I'm one of those "defacto" tech
    guys...
    Thanks,
    Brandt

    Here is how I normally do things.
    Tree
    ORG1 ORG2
    OU Users OU Users
    OU Policies OU Policies
    OU APPS OU APPS
    This is for a different organization for each location. Like Locations
    west and Location East.
    Then you have your organizational unit for the different users and
    then
    for your zen policies.
    This way you can go directly to the container that contains all your
    polices and dont' have to search through several objects to find it.
    ON your policies you would have your associations as to were they aregoing to apply.
    It is not about location of policies, but about association.
    Does that help any?
    It will also help you to have a search policy setup too.
    Here is a link for some information on search policy.

  • Device not working after updating from 8 to 8.1: SMK Ehome Infrared Transceiver and remote control (usb)

    Hi all,
    An excellent 2015 to you all. 
    I wonder whether it's possible to get my (USB) SMK Ehome Infrared transceiver (which serves to connect my PC to a remote control)  to work again. It functioned okay under Windows 8, but when I upgraded my system to Windows 8.1 it didn't respond anymore.
    How's that possible? And do you have any ideas how I can resolve this?
    I use the remote control to start and stop videos and to adjust the sound volume.
    What I have done already:
    -disabled and enabled the consumer IR devices under 'HID devices' in device management.
    -disabled and enabled the USB controller for the Ehome Infrared Receiver.
    No luck so far. Anybody knows what to do?
    Cheers,
    Peter

    Hi,
    What is the driver status in device manager? Have you tried to manually download the right version driver for Windows 8.1 from the transceiver's manufacture website and install it in your system?
    Meanwhile, please run services.msc to launch services manager, then scroll down to "Human Interface Device Access service", make sure the service is "started" to "manual" or "automatic", test the issue again.
    Yolanda Zhu
    TechNet Community Support
    Thanks, Yolanda Zhu. There is no driver on the manufacturer's website, but the driver is included from  Windows versions XP to 8 and the device responds as expected under these OS Versions. In Windows 8.1 it seems also to be included, and device manager
    indicates under Human Interface Devices that the 'Microsoft eHome infra transceiver' driver  functions correctly and under
    Universal Serial Bus controllers that 'eHome infrared receiver' (USBCIR) functions correctly as well.  But when I press the remote, the red LED blinks, but nothing else happens.
    The "Human Interface Device Service" is set to automatic and is being executed.
    Can it be that the mapping ('action on remote' to 'action on PC') is lost somehow?
    Cheers,
    Peter AKA Django

  • BT Vision Box and Remote Control not working prope...

    Hi,
    Can anybody help me please?
    I have a black BT Vision Box. The remote control had increasingly been sticking so tonight I just turned the power off tonight, left it off for 20 seconds and turned it back on.
    It seemed to turn back on and reboot itself normally, it took the amount of time it normally does on a couple of occasions when it froze a few months back. However since I rebooted it approximately 3 hours ago it has been turning itself off and rebooting itself every 10 minutes or so. On one occasion when I turned it off on the front of the machine and left it for a few minutes, it turned itself on and started rebooting itself again. 
    The remote control is worse than when it was sticking, now there is a delay of up to 30 seconds after I press a button. Sometimes it does not work at all, when that happens it just becomes stuck and eventually reboots itself.
    So far I have tried turning it off and on again, I have also tried rebooting the internet connection (which is working fine). I have tried pressing the off button on the actual box for 10 seconds and resetting it that way. I have put new batteries in the remote. Nothing has worked. If anyone can help me that would be great.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi, 
    Unfortunately I can't get that far now.
    I turned all TV related systems off last night in an effort to see if it would work properly today.
    I came home from work and turned everything on. The system boots itself up until it gets to a grey screen that says "Nearly there..." with the BT logo in the bottom right corner. It stays like that for approximately one minute. Then it turns itself off and starts rebooting itself again. 
    I have tried pressing the on/off button on the front of the box and holding it in for 10 secs or so until the box turns itself off and reboots but the effect is still the same as above. 
    Do you have any other suggestions pleaase, aside from throwing it in the bin?

  • After updating my iphone 3G and my ipodtouch 3G ios5, universal dock and remote control doesn´t work

    After updating my iphone 3G and my ipotouch 3G with ios5, the apple remote controls (the white and the aluminium one) doesn´t react when iphone or ipod are docked at the universal dock. The remote controls both still work with my Macbook, therefore it must be a problem with the dock. I have tried to connect both with the dock (Menu + left for 6 seconds) but it doesn´t help. Further the volume control doesn´t react on the iphone and the ipod when they are docked. Neither the one on the touchscreen nor the buttons. The day before the update everything was fine. Anyone any idea?
    Thanks!

    Look at the previous posts on the right under the heading: "More Like This".  I appears that others are having the same problem.

  • Memory and Remote Control Troubles Encore CS4

    Hi again After a week I have not seen any solution (or cause to my problem and hope perhaps someone will have some tips for me. So I copy my last new post and keep my fingers crossed! ( I think I read somewhere this is the way to go about - reposting)
    I just finished reading threads re memory problem with encore. Some from 2008! I'm using files I have created in PPcs4 with AVCHD clips exported as media to give me .avi files that I use to make a dvd in Encore. Usually it goes all well only for one thing my remote control end product does not work as it should at all, yes I still can play back the whole DVD and even go from one chapter to the next but not really choose and not with the menu on screen.
    So that is where the next trouble arises as I try to get the remote control in  the pannel preview to work. After only a few changes in the button routing trying the preview will get me the insufficient memory warning. It does not really crash, the preview may freeze but I can terminate it and try again. But from then on it's "go slow" to no where I read Bill H's entry about page filing and tried a few things I have 8gb ram so used one of my TB and allocated this x3 in virtual memory. I don't really understand what I'm doing, just tried to follow some instructions. but this did not make any difference at all. I also have asked my system (W7 4gb ram i5 intel and plenty of HD realestate) to optimise for best performance. So my Desktop is now looking a little pale! Still to no joy.
    My other trouble which seems related is this darn remote control. I can't get it working I used it in pp2 suite I can't quite remember how it was but it worked. Here in CS 4 all I can see is a slight highlight when I hover over it but it does not seem to respond. I've been to so many searches but none seem to respond to "enable preview remote control" or anything around this meaning. So as long as I can't use it in the pgr as long it will not be correct on my dvd!
    I have not used Mpg and can see my Audio timeline the same length as my Video
    I just imported such a file in a new project chose a preset menu (Before I used a blank menu and created buttons on a jpeg), made 3 chapters linked correctly (my Build /check did not return any error) but still unable to use the remote control, It's ok with the mouse till I try a little more and I get a memory problem.
    PS I always had a memory problem but not related to computers! I feel a little embarrassed that I have not been able to solve this after so much time spent on it and hope some one may have an answer. Thank you
    I have not been through defrag and turning everything else off as I worked in PP with nil such problem and thought I gave PP a harder job with my hd clips,  titles, added audio. Perhaps I'm quite wrong.
    I also remember reading about someone who's remote control would work ok on 4:3 ratio but not on wide, so I tried both to no avail in my case.
    Ok I'll go quiet
    PS: I also added that i did go through defrag and found it was not needed. as I suspected I had lots of room. (i5 8gb ram, 2X1tb hd external 1/2 tb )
    I'm aware and do appreciate that people who give help on forum are doing it on a voluntary basis using their own time and am very thankful for it.

    Thank you Stan. It's not going too well, first I tried to capture the screen (I have 2 monitors) and it gave me a lot of trouble unlike yesterday, (it kept capturing the wrong screen although Encore was the one activated) and  I ended with a black and white screen?
    Then my memory error became worse. I turned the internet off and lots of processes with no improvement. Anyway here is what I got about routing.I wonder why it's a gif image I saved it for the web. Actually these buttons weren't routed anymore and had a zero on most branches (arrows) - Hmm I can see "Sunpeak" with such zeros here! I don't know what happened but even "play All" was routed to "Banff" at the bottom right that is 1 to 2. before I took the screen shot. I might have to try with a conventional lay out menu button. This is difficult with all my memory crashes. I looked at quite a few threads to optimise but many relate more to AE that has a memory setting in Preferences. (actually, as a trial, I even allocated 5 gb ram for other application from AE that I don't even use, but to no avail)
    I definitely routed each button 1to 8 but here it's not anymore the way it was! And I'm sure I save it after doing so.
    I'll give it another go but not sure when.

  • PDA and remote control

    Hello,
    I am attempting to use a PDA to remotely control a computer.  However I am getting errors such as "property node 'Property Node': Not supported for current target". 
    Another error I am running into the the inability to execute subVIs.
    Let me know if I should provide additional information.

    Hi Thejoeblack,
    Thanks for contacting National Instruments.  I've been looking into your question about using a PDA and I have a suggestion for you.  First off, are you just getting started with the PDA? If so, then I would suggest searching in Help>>Find Examples for "PDA."  Here you can find some good examples that I think will help you out.  One in particular is entitled "PDA Tutorial-Pocket PC."  I would suggest looking at this example and the Getting Started Guide located on your computer under Start>>All Programs>>National Instruments>>LabVIEW>>LabVIEW Manuals.  I hope some of this helps and please feel free to reply if you still have some questions.  Thanks!

  • Audigy Sound Blaster and Remotely controlled speake

    I own Sound Blaster Audigy card and I would like to purchase set of Dolby surround speakers that would work flawlessly with that card. I am thinking to buy Creative speakers since they also make this card, but I need a set that could be remotely controlled, either through wire or wirelessly. Anyone out there with this older model of Audigy that has surround speakers connected to it which can be remotely controlled? Any suggestions? I wrote an email with my question to Creative sales, but nobody responded yet.
    Thank you,

    If it is the very first Audigy model (Audigy ) then it a 5. soundcard. So any 5. speaker system or below would work nati'vely with your soundcard. If you choose a 6. or 7. system they usually have an upmix function to make 5. sounds play over all satellites.
    Also, most speaker sets (regardless of manufacturer) uses some kind of remote control (either through cable or IR).
    Your question is extremely hard to answer if you are looking for tips on which speaker set to buy, but easy to answer if we take the question "Anyone out there with this older model of Audigy that has surround speakers connected to it which can be remotely controlled?" at face value as everyone with any kind of speakers should have some kind of control pod or IR remote control to their speakers.
    Edit: I will try to answer your question: you can choose whatever speaker set you want as I think it is safe to say they all got either a cable remote control or an IR remote. The question then becomes what exactly you are looking for and in what price range.

    Is anyone aware of a problem whereby installing the latest ZFD mgmt.

    "Either you do not have the rights to Remote Control or the target

    Both of these statements are false so I am not sure what the problem

    Anyone?

    Yes, no more holding magnets stopped that when they went alu...
    if you don't have it at too much o an angel you can rest it on top.. they should have given an alu remote to match it though. that might b why it doesn't stick any more you have to hide the un-matching remote lol
