Acess to USB harddisk on Neatgear WGT634U WLAN router

Hello folks!
Hoping someone can help me, pleeeeeaaaase!
Until recently, I have been using an iBook (MacOS 10.3.9), that is connecting wireless to a Netgear WGT634U router. On this router, I have an external harddisk, connected via USB. On the iBook, if I want to connect to the harddisk, I go from the Finder to "Go to" > "Connect to server" , type "smb://192.168.1.1/ (which is the default IP of the router, then I get a window asking me to log in with a user name and password and finally I have access.
Now I have bought a brand new MacBook running 10.5.1. If I do the same steps as described above, a window comes up where I can choose between "guest" and "registered user". I then use the same login/password combination as on the iBook, but can't get access ("Wrong user name or password!")
Any idea, why this procedure works on the older iBook but not on the MacBook? Netgear can't help me with the old router but claims it is compatible to 10.5.1!

  • Usb-harddisk can´t include in time machine backup

    Hello,
    I have a problem including a 2 TB USB Harddisk (Fat32 formatted) with one volume. With OS Lion, it is no problem to read/write on it. But, it is not possible to include the volume (384 GB data written on it) to time machine. It appears, but it could not be marked in the menue for "not including". Also a 16 GB FAT32 USB Stick could not marked for including in the time machine options.
    The time machine volume is a seconde usb harddisk with 1 TB. Everything is connected by usb.
    Thank you very much

    Yes, same thing there. TM will only back up "Mac Extended" formatted drives. Any FAT32, NTFS, etc, drives, sticks or cards will not get backed up.

  • Trouble connecting to USB Harddisk

    Hi all,
    I recently bought an AEBS to set up a wireless network for my Windows PC and Laptop. So far so good, both wintel machines can connect to internet, and both can print to the USB printer hooked to the AEBS.
    I also connected a USB harddisk to the AEBS, but only my laptop can connect to it. My workstation fails and keeps telling me that the supplied password is incorrect, no matter what I try: client access or disk access.
    *One more thing I like to know:*
    How can I create a share on my Desktop that will be visible for my laptop. I used to have this when I had everything wired with a simple router. But now I have it all wireless, and I cannot figure out how to do this (sharing directories and/or disks) because Windows does not show the wireless network in "available network places" (or whatever this is called).
    Thanks

  • Equium L10-300: Cannot see my Wlan router!

    I have a Toshiba Equium L10 300 laptop with an internal Infocomm IPN 2220 wireless network card.
    The laptop is running Windows XP Home SP2 and ConfigFree. I have updated the wireless drivers to the latest version.
    I am trying to connect the laptop to a Belkin ADSL Modem with Wireless G Router (Model: FSD7632-A)
    The wireless button is turned on.
    When I refresh the wireless LANs in either windows or configFree, I can see every wireless LAN SSID on my street (which are also 54G) apart from mine. I have a other laptop which quite happily connects to the Belkin. The L10 stubbornly refuses to acknowledge its existence.
    Does anyone have any idea why this is?
    Any help woud be much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Alasdair

    Hi
    The WLan card seems to works because the other WLans are visible.
    In my knowledge the integrated Ambit minPCI WLan card support 802.11b/g wireless technology.
    I would recommend switching the mode to G only. This can be done in device manager -> WLan card properties -> advanced tab
    Please also check if the Wlan card uses the same channel like Wlan router.

  • Wlan router restarts when streaming music to Airport express

    Hi guys,
    Yesterday I received my brand new Airport express which I plan to use for streaming music from iTunes to my Stereo. Unpacking and installing the lovely looking AE was like x-mas eve and birthday all in one .
    After the installation where I set up the AE to join my wireless network. My wlan is a WEP 64 bit encrypted one, I had some problems adding it to the network with the wizard of the AE tool, but this worked just fine after using the manual set-up procedure instead where I chose WEP 40 bit in the AE tool. I also upgraded AE firmware as a part of this process.
    So, the AE pops up nicely in iTunes, and I started streaming music to them, and it worked perfectly... for 10 seconds. Then the music stopped, the play-bar in iTunes stopped, and I also noticed that my laptop (Acer laptop running Windows Vista) lost the internet connection.
    After some investigations where I switched off volume adjustment on remote speakers in iTunes and reseting and re-installing the AE, I noticed that the reasons for the problems seems to my wlan router re-booted whenever I started streaming music to the AE. My wlan router is a Zyxel Prestige 660, and it has worked flawlessly for the last two years. The AE is connected to the network, it gets an IP address, and it shows up just fine in the IP list on the router, that is before it restarts... And once the router re-starts the logs are gone, so it's not possible to see what's happening in that end.
    Has anyone ever experienced the same? What can the root cause be? Changing the wlan encryption is unfortunately not an option since the router is pre-programmed from my ISP. I'm considering changing my modem, but I'm reluctant to spending 150 bucks on a new modem if this may not resolve the issue.
    Any comments or suggestions would be highly appreciated.

    Part 2: The mystic restart of the router was solved through changing to a Thompson Speedtouch 780 (luckily my ISP sent me a new wlan router and I didn't even have to pay).
    However, the problem with the music breaking up when streaming from iTunes to the AE remains; The stream is broken after just a few seconds, and it also seems to mess up other internet traffic on my laptop . I've tried with the AE in a number of different locations, even 1 meter away from my laptop - nothing works.
    As it is now, the AE is useless. What a disappointment .

  • Which Wlan router do I need?

    Please can anyone help?
    I am on a BT line and my service provider is wanadoo through orange. I want to go wireless.
    What sort of router do i need?
    Thanks

    Hi
    Sorry for this question but why did you post this question in the Toshiba forum???
    There are so many WLan routers on the market and I think you should read some test articles about the router hardware. Maybe then you will bring more light into this case.
    By the way, I use the WLAN-Router Sinus 154 DSL Basic 3

  • I can't access my USB network drive connected to my router.

    I have a G5 that I was running Tiger, and could easily access a usb network drive connected to my router. As soon as I upgraded to Leopard, I sporadically get access, but usually not.
    I just purchased an iMac with Snow Leopard and then upgraded to Lion, but I have never had access to this drive.
    I can't get access with either Mac now, but I have no problem accessing the drive from a PC on the same home network, so I know the drive is connected properly, and is working properly.
    Any thoughts how to access this drive from my Macs?

    Let's say that the name of your drive is Hard Drive
    Check using AirPort Utility to get the IP address of your AirPort Extreme, for example you see that it is 10.0.1.1
    You'll need to know the device name for the AirPort Extreme. This is not the wireless password, it's the device password.
    On the PC, open My Computer
    Click on Tools and select Map Network Drive.
    Select the drive you want, "Z" for example
    On the next line for Folder, type in
    \\10.0.1.1\Hard Drive
    Click Finish
    Type in your user name
    Type in the device password for the AirPort Extreme

  • E65 can't get through my wlan router

    My Nokia E65 can't get through my wlan router. Can anybody help?
    When using wireless at home I can browse the wifi-router homepage (192.168.0.1), but the Internet application won't load internet pages.
    I've tried different security settings, even totally open. Always the same at my TrendNet TEW611 BRP using default settings. At other routers internet is ok.
    What's strange is that the SIP phone application gets through, so I can make phonecalls but no internet. Can anyone explain this?

    try to connect using WiFi connection manager like HandyWi, www.handywi.com, if that still doesn't work when it's probably something wrong with the settings on your router. Can also be that the page your are trying to load is too large for the mobile browser to process.

  • Equium M50 will only connect to WLan router when security is off

    MY Equium M50 will only connect to my wireless BELKIN G+ MIMO ROUTER when the security is turned off,
    What is the reason for this please?
    Blonde Bimbo!!

    Hello
    Did you mean the WLan encryption which secures the entry to the wireless LAN?
    I suppose you have set the encryption (WPA, WEP, etc...) on your WLan router but didnt configure the WLan card.
    Well, in my opinion you should check which WLan encryption does the card support and then choose it on the WLan router. The encryption key should be set on the router and on the notebook!

  • Connect Airport Express to PC and WLAN Router

    Hi,
    I have a PC running with WinXP that is connected to a Siemens Gigaset 551 WLAN router and I try to use airtunes with that combination.
    The problem is that I cannot connect to the airport express station. I cannot see it as a wireless network and also cannot get access by the airport configuration tool.
    Wen I use my Win XP laptop with a build in LAN card there is no problem.
    Does somebody know where to find setup guide?
    Thx

    To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
    AirPort tab
    - Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    - Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
    - Wireless Network: <select the existing wireless network>
    Music tab
    - Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
    - Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
    - iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
    - iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
    In iTunes:
    iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
    - Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

  • TC wireless failed; Use as USB backup with Netgear R7000 as router?

    TC wireless failed. Can TC (500Gb hard drive) be  used as USB backup with Netgear R7000 as router or to nearby iMac?

    No, you cannot use the USB to access an internal disk in the TC.
    If its wireless has failed the rest will not be far behind.. the 500GB is Gen1 or early Gen2.. and they are simply failing in numbers.. you can probably repair it with a power supply, I kind of doubt the wireless itself would die but is symptomatic of failure of the unit as a whole.
    If you want a backup just buy a large USB drive and plug it straight into the iMac. Choose the fastest interface you can afford.. ie firewire 800 is still head and shoulders better than usb2.. but usb3 or thunderbolt in the later machines are a big improvement.. with the later costing an arm and leg still, with most of the bits in between.

  • WLAN Router problem - No Push Notifications

    Hi all!, I have a iPod Touch 2nd Gen and can´t get push notifications via a WRTP54G router. Am I the only one with this issue? Does anybody know wich ports can I un-block from the router to get it to work?. My girlfriend´s WLAN router WRT54G (not WRTP54G) works.

    In the iPhone Configuration Utility I have just found this log entry when I switch on push notifications on the iPod:
