Access Connection 5.5: Max Number of Saved Ports? 3?

Hi,
It appears that Access Connections can only save 3 ethernet ports? Is this by design or is this a bug? If by design, why such a low number? If a bug, please fix this ASAP.
Cheers,

LANOgre,
Thank you.
While you're at it, will you also please ask for clarification why you can only set priority for the first 4 locations under "automatic location switching"? Locations greater than 4 do not have a priority number, and you can not increase / decrease their priority.
Cheers,

Access Connections Ethernet Location Switching only saves one port at a time

Like many other people, I cannot get automatic location switching between two Ethernet networks to work properly.
I have two stored network locations; one for home and one for work. Both of these are set up as Best Available Network with both Ethernet and Wireless.
Under Tools - Location Switching, both networks are listed, and "Include Ethernet connections in automatic switching and prompt me to save Ethernet ports" is checked. However, in the details column, the current location has 1 saved port(s), and the other has 0 saved ports. The saved port is always the one most recently connected.
If I go to Edit Saved Ports, only one location is listed, with the correct IP address and MAC address for the router. If I connect at the other location, only that location is listed, again with the correct IP address and MAC address.
The router IP addresses are different (work is 192.168.0.1, and home is 192.168.1.254), and obviously the MAC addresses are different, so it should be possible for Access Connections to distinguish them. Unfortunately the only "editing" that is possible is to delete the saved port. I would be happy to add a saved port manually, but that is not an option. In addtion, despite the "...prompt me to save Ethernet ports" being checked, I have never received a prompt. Even if I delete the saved port, it resaves automatically next time without any prompt.
I have also tried setting up both locations as Ethernet only, but have exactly the same problem.
My T520 was supplied with Access Connections 5.85 preinstalled. I tried upgrading to 5.97 in the hope that it had been fixed in the meantime. Unfortunately it has not.
Access Connections is still marginally useful to me for automatic switching between Wireless and Ethernet, and for a simple manual switch of settings such as default printer, home page, and file sharing. However, it would be very useful for the home and work locations to be autodetected and switched.
From the number of unresolved questions on this board on the same topic, it appears that this is a long standing deficiency with Access Connections. Is there any chance of this being fixed?

I found from another bulletin board that ethernet location switching seemed to work OK with Access Connections 3.82, but stopped working with releases after that, and from my experience still does not work with 5.97
http://www.thinkpads.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=38514
Two questions:
1. Does anyone know if Access Connections 3.82 works with Windows 7?
2. If so, where could I get a copy? The oldest version on the Lenovo website appears to be 5.50
I will refrain from commenting on the necessity of going back to such an old version to recover basic functionality for this utility......

Max number of simultaneous connections?

Hi everyone!
how is possible to determine in advance the max number of simultaneous connection for my FMS?
thanks!

Hi,
Like Jay had mentioned the limitation on the number of connection to server depends on the capability of your server.
You can get the maximum number of connections made to the server, number of active clients... etc details through Administration APIs.
'getServerStats' gives you the "total_connects", which is the maximum number of connections made to the server. "connected" property will return the number of active clients to your server at one point. It also has many more statistics for your reference. This api returns the overall information of the server. If you want to get the details for specific vhost, you can use getVHostStats or getActiveVHostStats. To get more details on Administration API, refer your pdf documentation on "Administration API", that gets installed in your system under "$Root\Flash Media Server\documentation\flashmediaserver_3.5_administrationAPI.pdf".

Real-time 8.6 Remote panel connection exceeds max number of licenses- with no connections

I've been using the remote panel right along with no problems to connect to my Compact Fieldpoint. This morning I accidently opened the connection twice on the same computer and tripped the "Remote panel connection exceeds max number of licenses" error. Now it will not let me connect anymore from my computer. I've tried clearing cookies, cache and history in Internet Explorer and rebooting my computer. I've fired up the Remote Panel Connection Manager which shows no connections, and the NI License Information window does not show any connections which have been denied due to max # of clients being exceeded. Is there a way to reset this without having to reboot my RT controller? I'm running RT8.6 and LV 8.6 Full Dev System and understanding that it should come with 1 remote panel license.
Thanks

The boss wanted to see an updated feature, so I was forced to deploy a new version and reboot. Problem went away as I suspected it would.
I did manage to make the same mistake again this morning (launch the remote panel in 2 different MSIE windows) and after closing them both I could reconnect. Must be a glitch or a bug? It'd be interesting to see if anyone else has this problem. For now...solved, but it would be nice to see a way to fix this without rebooting.

Max number of connection for adapters

Hi PI/XI Experts,
I have a WS to Proxy Syncronous scenario. I need to know how many client could consume the web service at the same time? Are there any limitation? If so what is the max. number? and where it can be changed?
There is another question that how many of the WS clients message could be processed via ABAP Proxy? It is important to transport the all the messages to ABAP Proxy at the same time as much as possible.
Kind regards,
Altuğ Bayram

Hi Raj,
Where you get this knowledge? When i do search before this message i only found about RFC adapter max connection limitations. Every server/adapter should have a maximum capacity. Maybe it is high number for WS and XI adapters but i need to know what it is. If you how can i find it please share the information.
Kind regards,

DataSource max number of open connections

We are using Oracle 9i AS.
We are using the pre installed emulated data source.
We have specified 30 and 100 as the min and max number of open connections.
We are using BC4J application modules in my application . For each application module we have specified the JDBC data source, so the default connection pooling at the Application Module level is disabled, via doConnectonPooling = true.
The question :
1. When i go into the OC4J Home screen and monitor the Open JDBC connections, why is the number more than the max that i have specified ? My data source is being used , because my app is up and running.
thx.

Chints -- There were a few cases that where max connections was not honored prior to the Oracle9ias v903 release. These issues should be fixed in the Oracle9iAS v903 production release.
Thanks -- Jeff Would there be any difference if we were to use a non Emulated data source..we are using Oracle 9i on the back end
thx!!

Is there max number of switches I can connect to Linksys SD2008? Slow down issues...

I have a SD2008 main 8-port switch. Connected to this, I have THREE 5-port switches from DLINK, each on its own SD2008 port.
1) My DSL provides 10 Mbps maximum.
2) On two of the DLINK switches, I can get 10 Mbps with speedtest.net
3) On third switch (connected last in time), I can only get about 2 Mbps.
4) If I disconnect one of the other two switches, the 3rd slow one now is 10 Mbps.
It seems like there can only be 2 switches connected to the SD2008. Is this true?
If so - is there a new model of switch that I can connect 3 switches to (two 5 ports and one 8 port).

Access connections does not see wireless networks but can connect if you know the SSID

Running a Thinkpad x200 using windows 7 and Access Connections 5.42.
A few weeks ago i was traveling and was connecting to a hotel wireless network.
Could receive email but wasn't able to send email due to hotel port restrictions so long-story short version-- IT staff at hotel told me to connect via LAN. Which i did by simply plugging in LAN line to the thinkpad and to the hotel -- port -- no other changes. have done this a million times at home and elsewhere.
All is well....
until....
I get home and i notice that when i use access connections, it doesn't see any wireless connections (no icons in the radar screen). It automatically connects to my home network and i can use the home profile to connect. Same for any connection that i know the SSID for -- i can't see it but i can connect to it.
But it doesn't show any icons during "find" or find again. It only shows the home icon i am connected to. If i disconnect and try to find wireless networks. It doesn't show any.
So i know
1) radio is working
2) can connect via lan
3) can connect to a known wireless if i know the SSID and either manually configure it or if i have the profile saved
4) i have run antivirus, malwarebytes - etc -- all clean
5) have rebooted, turned radio on off
6) system restore doesn't help
7) all wireless networks are now invisible to radar screen. Have tried this at starbucks, around town - etc -- available wireless network icons are invisible
I'm not sure that hooking up LAN in the hotel did anything but it seems too coincidental. Also seem to recall a thread where this has been known to happen.
Help!!!

First off, it sees the networks. That's good. You reset network settings which usually corrects a number of problems. Let's focus on your home network and getting connected to that.
1. Reboot your router (just power it off for 10 secs). Try to connect. If it works, you are done. If not, step 2
2. Reset your network settings again. However, this time log onto your network by tapping Settings > WiFi > Other and re-entering your network name, security settings, and password.
Check your connection by tapping the blue > next to the network name with the checkmark. If your IP starts with 169.x, then you are connected but your router is not issuing you an IP address. This leads to a couple of additional problem areas - WEP encryption and outdated router firmware.
If you continue to have problems, tell us which router/model, security settings used, etc.

1252 - Max Number of Clients

I have customer that is looking at deploying 1252 access points. I was wondering what the maximum number of clients that can associate to a single 1252. Does this count differ between 1252s running autonomous and LWAPP? The proposed configuration is using B/G radios at 54Mbps but quoting the A/B/G model for future 802.11n deployment (5Ghz radios would be turned off for now).
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thx
Joe

Its not as simple as the max number of clients but you also have to consider the type of client. Also food RF deisign and survey are critical to maximising client throughput.
There are rules for existing aps of approx 20-25 max for data. This would be 7 for voice in mixed mode b/g or 14 for g only and 20 for a only.
The ap can theoretically support many more clients, I think the figure is 256. With very simplistic data transfer such as bar code scanning I have seen as may as 50 clients with no issues.
As you ar lookig at abg these figures seem realistic.
With 802.11n you hav more bandwith available, better utilisation of the spectrum and therefore more client but its about being realistic and looking at what you are trying to connect.
Streaming multimedia would be lower than data only. Data only I would say 50 clients no issues but thats quite a density considering the RF footprint. For voice you are stuck with the above figures as you are still only dealing with abg clients.
Hope that helps

T500: Access Connections and windows wifi management issue PostPosted: Fri Oct 29, 2010 2:31 pm

Hello all,
This is my very first post here so please beare with me.
My T500:
Product: ThinkPad T500 2056-AK5
Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium x64 (but same problem on Ultimate x64)
Original description: Based 2056-4RG: T9400(2.53GHz), 3GB RAM, 160GB 7200rpm HD, 15.4in 1680x1050 LCD, 256MB ATI Radeon HD3650, CDRW/DVDRW, Intel 802.11agn wireless, Bluetooth, Modem, 1Gb Ether, UltraNav, Sec Chip, FPR, 9c Li-Ion, WinVista Business 32
The wifi NIC is Intel 5100 AGN, the gigabit is 82567LM. I bought also an Ericsson F3507g Mobile Broadband modem. All are working as supposed.
The win7 is freshly installed from recovery dvd's, all updates, both Lenovo and Micro$oft are up to date.
The problem: Access connections seems to be "behind" the automated wifi management of windows 7. I have two, three profiles saved for may home wifi network, my office wifi network and so on. My home network has settings like 192.168.7.xx, no encryption, only MAC registration, the office network has 192.168.4.xx, encryption WPA, therefore a switch is needed everyday between these.
The problem is that AC doesn't do that, eventually doesn't even switch between locations at all. In AC->Tools location switching is properly set up
The T500 connects let say at home, then when I starts in the office it connects to the office network but still using my home IP (192.168.7.xx) even if I saved in the profiles different IP numbers for both location. I have tried stopping the windows wifi connection service but then AC stop either.
This seems to me like windows try and force reconnect to the new network with the old settings, even before AC could interfere with its settings saved in profiles.
Only 2 things I can do:
1. in windows' wireless network and sharing center I choose to start manually these networks, then start them manually from AC;
2. Stop the network as connected automatically by windows (with wrong IP settings) then restart it from AC;
Both these are frustrating because my good old T60 running winXP did this automatically, without my inference.
Could anyone help me out of these, please?

I had similar problems with my T400. AC would refuse to even show my access point most of the time. I finally gave up and uninstalled AC. The Windows 7 wifi management works just fine, but no profiles
Others on this forum smarter than me insist that AC works with Windows 7, just not for me. It worked perfectly when running XP on this T and on my T61.
If you dump AC, do the basic wifi functions work for you?

T400 Vista vs Access Connections

(I hope this doesn't show up twice. My first try failed with an undecipherable server error)
Basically, wifi is unusable on my new T400 when running Vista Ultimate or Vista Business 64. If I run XP it works just fine. All 3 are stock Lenovo OEM installs from factory media.
My home wifi router is sitting close to the laptop. W/Vista, I can usually see it via "find" but usually can't connect. Occasionally after rebooting I can. Sometimes I can't even see it in find. W/XP on this T400, or with XP on my T61, it works as expected.
I suspect confiicts between Vista wifi management and Access Connections. With XP, one could solve this by unchecking the "let windows manage..." box in wifi properties. There doesn't seem to be such an option in Vista. I have tried disabling the windows "Zero Configuration" service (WLAN Autoconfig after SP1) but that doesn't help. Without that service, AC can't even turn on the radio. Worse (!) I can't turn the radio on manually via Fx-F5 either. Bluetooth yes, wifi no.
It looks like AC actually uses some/all of the WLAN Autoconfig function.
One thing I haven't tried yet is uninstalling AC and just using the Vista wifi management. Even if that works, it gives up a lot in terms of profile management.
I welcome any suggestions. As it stands, this shiny new T400 is unusable. It's a nice little machine, but this isn't the first of the frustrations....
Thanks,
Z

Unfortunately, I need to use this thing on the road as well as at home, so a fixed IP address isn't an option since I won't know what subnet(s) will be in use. I experienced the same problems last weekend at two hotels and in the Denver airport, so it isn't my router.
I have done quite a bit more experimentation with this problem, without any resolution. I do notice that when it fails Vista thinks it is connected, but only locally. It has assigned a 169... address which I take to mean that DHCP has failed. Trying a command: ipconfig /renew fails with an error.
If I let it fail, then reboot, it usually will succeed as long as I try to connect to the same access point that failed before the reboot.
I tried uninstalling Access Connections, but Vista has the same problem(s) when it is doing the management! Failed connections, local only connections, and often success after a reboot. One interesting and nasty difference is that when using the Windows management w/out Access Connections, wired connections will also fail in the same way!
I see many, many people on the web who are having similar problems. Some of the threads go back more than a year with no resolution.
I have gone around and around with IBM/Lenovo support. They have escalated the problem to a series of lead techs who never return phone calls. Very disappointing, since the first tier techs are quite friendly and helpful - and generally return calls.
My next step is to go back to the nice man who handles escalations from the sales side, and ask him where to send this piece of junk. It boggles my mind that Microsoft and Lenovo will put this kind of half-baked crap in the marketplace, and then do nothing to get it working.

Access Connections fails to launch - "has encountered a problem and needs to close..."

I have an R61 with XP, SP3 installed. The underlying functionality of Access Connections appears to be working properly (I have access to both Ethernet and wireless using profiles previously established), but when I attempt to launch Access Connections (from system tray icon, Programs, etc.) I get the error message, "Access Connections has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience," and the option to send or not send an error report to Microsoft. This makes it impossible to create or edit location profiles. I first encountered this error several months ago with AC version 5.33 (might have also seen it under 5.3). Subsequently I have upgraded to version 5.50 and have the same problem. Today I uninstalled AC, restared, reinstalled ver 5.5 (from a fresh download), and restarted. I still encountering the problem.
Additional information: Norton Internet Security (2010) is installed. Microsoft and ThinkVantage patches are up to date.
Please recommend "next steps" in troubleshooting or a way to resolve this issue.
Thanks

Hmmm... could be a corrupt profile.
Try this.
1. Uninstall Access Connections (but don't delete the profiles)
2. After the reboot, open REGEDIT.
3. In the left pane, expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, then SOFTWARE, then Lenovo
4. Still in the left pane, right click on Access Connection and choose export
5. Assign an appropriate filename and click Save (I suggest somewhere on the Desktop).
6. Right click on Access Connections again and choose delete.
7. Open Windows Explorer and go to C:\Program Files\Thinkpad\ConnectUtilities directory.
8. Delete any files in this directory.
9. Reinstall Access Connections v5.50
10. Try and create a profile.
If you still get an error trying to create a profile, then something else is broken. Be sure you have .NET 3.5 SP1 (it may be under optional downloads in Windows Update).
If it works fine, then you have a bad profile. Unfortunately, there isn;t an easy way to figure out which one other than try and error of delete profiles and trying one at a time.
To restore your profiles.
1. Unistall Access Connections. Reboot.
2. Double click the saved .reg file on your Desktop and answer Yes to merge it into the registry.
3. Install Access Connections. Reboot.

Can't power on Wireless Radio Access Connections ver. 5.83 build 83C753WW

I had the wireless working just fine. I did a System Update and now I can't get the Wireless Radio to power on for the life of me.
I've tried many things. I read many many other problems that sound the same but they are working with older version of Access Connections and most of them are working with XP.
I'm working with Win7 64bit Professional on a Thinkpad L512. Windows has all the updates available. The only way I know of to turn on the radio is with <Function> F5. I see the 802.11 Wireless Radio in the Off state. I see the power button. When I select the power button nothing happens.
I have replaced the hard drive and loaded the recovery disks. Then the wireless works just fine. So I know it's not a hardware issue. When I put the original hard drive back in I can't get the radio to power on. I have removed and reinstalled a number of pieces of software in a specific order but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
Thanks,
Docfxit

look in device manager / network adapter to ensure the wireless card driver is working
