Any way to bypass the router?

Hi, I'm wondering if there's a way for me to run my internet connection through my router yet bypass it entirely at the same time. I've got the WRT54GS and my brother needs the wireless connection for his laptop, but I'm wired into it through the LAN port and am having problems with various programs and web-based apps. Obviously we're sharing the one internet connection, but I simply want to bypass the router settings so I don't have to deal with the firewall and ports and everything else.
Sorry if this has been asked a million times before -- I've honestly searched for an answer and haven't found it.

Yeah, it's just that I've spent way too much time already trying to figure out all the settings and stuff; I'm not that computer savvy and I just don't have the patience or free time to do this anymore. Of course I can appreciate what a router is capable of doing in the hands of someone with a great deal more knowledge of them than I, but honestly I was completely happy with the way things were a few weeks ago when I didn't have the thing and I'd be entirely satisfied with this switch setup you mentioned. Unfortunately I don't know what a switch is.
Any insight into what I should be looking at purchasing would be more than helpful.
Also, from your suggestion, I'm also assuming there's no way of simply turning off all the router settings and stuff for the router's LAN port or whatever?
Thanks again.

    Try deleting your last backup by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again.  If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

    If Disk Warrior does not work you can try the following steps (but they may not work if the disk has a hardware error).
    Get the disk (DVD or CD) that came with the system (since you have it listed as 10.6.8).  If it is 10.7 or 10.8 use the Recovery partition to boot from or the USB installer if you have that option.
    Insert the disk then power down
    HOLDING the C key, power up to boot from the disc.
    Get to Disk Utility
    If Disk Utility will now show your hard drive, use DU to REPAIR the disk.
    When it completes the Repair process successfully as indicated in DU, do a shut down.  If Repair is not successful then an different course of action is indicated below.
    Then HOLDING THE APPLE (or Command key depending on your keyboard) KEY AND THE OPTION KEY AND THE LETTER P AND R KEYS, continue hiolding them until you hear the chime tone for the THIRD time then release all four keys.
    If REPAIR is not successful, use the Install disc as a boot and REINSTALL THE OS X OPERATING SYSTEM  DO NOT ERASE THE DISK OR VOLUME FIRST.  REPEAT DO NOT erase the disk or volume before trying to reinstall the OS X operating system.  After re-installing the OS do a software update.  Note that ERASING the disk is NOT required to do an OS re-install.  This allows your existing data and application files to remain.
    If that fails then you are down to the "bitter end" of erasing the volume and reinstalling the OS and then all the other software.
    If erasing the Volume fails then your last hope is to completely erase the entire hard drive, repartion the disk  and try a re-install.
    If that fasils then you may have a defective hard disk.

  • Sharing: Any way to "bypass" the max number of simultaneous connections of

    I want to share one computer at the beginning of a course with 22 (young) users.
    Only ten can connect to it simultaneously.
    Is there a way to do it - without installing a "server" $$$ ??
    Clients are 10.4.11 and shared computer is an runs Leopard.
    Thanks.

    Is there a way to do it - without installing a "server" $$$ ??
    On one machine? Legally? no. That's the limit of the license you agreed to, and is why Server exists.
    I'm not even sure it can be done illegally, and even if it could be done, no one here is going to be stupid enough to say
    If you have multiple machines, you might be able to get there via resharing - have one machine mount the sharepoint from the first machine and reshare it to another 10 clients - but you'd need three machines to cover your 22 users, performance would suffer and there may be access control issues if multiple users are trying to use the same files at once. Not to mention that three systems costs more than a single copy of Mac OS X Server...

  • Is there any way to bypass the

    wheels in the calendar and just enter date and time from the keyboard?  I find getting the wheels to stop accurately to be nearly impossible, rendering the calendar a major annoyance.

    Afraid not.
    Now if you have access to another calendar, for example, if you have outlook on your computer, you can make the appointment there then e-mail it to yourself and import it into the calendar app and the app will display your appointment.
    Is it faster than the date wheels? Dunno. just another way to do it.
    Another way would be to look for another app.

  • Any way to bypass iPhone backup so I can upgrade to 2.1?

    I'm really looking forward to upgrading my iPhone to 2.1, but in order to upgrade it has to backup the iPhone first. It's been running for an hour now and the progress bar has barely moved! At this pace it'll take at least 10 hours to backup! And if I receive a phone call, I'm screwed. Since this is my business phone, chances are really high that I'm going to get a call in the next several hours.
    So is there any way to bypass the backup so I can install 2.1?

    You're suggestion works if you don't mind rebuilding everything afterwards. I was able to restore to 2.1 in a few minutes, but the iPhone wouldn't pull in stuff from my last backup. Something about it being incompatible.
    So now I'm in the process of rebuilding/updating everything. Luckily most of my stuff can quickly be added back like contacts, music, etc. All my email accounts are IMAP, so no big deal there either. And now since 3rd party apps update a LOT quicker, that part won't be so painful.

    I assume that you don't have the installation discs, so:
    1. Reboot
    2. Hold command + s key down after you hear the chime.
    3. When you get a text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
    (Type these commands very carefully)
    mount -uw /
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    shutdown -h now
    4. You will go through the setup process again, create a new admin account, login to it and then change your existing account password or whatever else you need to do. You can delete the account you made in this process, or not.

  • Any way to bypass server certificate validation in AIR client?

    Is there any way to bypass certificate validation and server identification for secure Channels or ChannelSets? I am aware of the existing workaround to import my own certificate into the user's CA chain, but I feel that having greater control on the client-side is preferred.
    If there is not a way to bypass client-side certificate validation I will be filing this as a feature request at http://bugs.adobe.com
    Thanks,
    Karl
    When producing a client-server solution it is occasionally useful to override the default behavior of HTTPS certificate validation and server identification. I would like to request the ability to override these systems in the AIR environment for applications installed with the "UNRESTRICTED" system access option.
    Simply allowing the use of self-signed certificates without verification (perhaps signified by a secure protocol identifier other than "https") would provide adequate functionality, but some users may desire finer control.
    This issue is partly addressed by bugs FP-711 and FP-214 but I feel it is important that any enhancement include the BlazeDS Channel in the case that the AIR application has unrestricted system access.
    When deploying an AIR client application which is securely connected to a network appliance which is controlled by the same developer it is desirable to bypass the overhead of acquiring a PKI issued certificate for every customer. Independent, open-source, and not-for-profit developers could see increased ability to adopt the AIR platform with this improvement.
    When deploying a network appliance to be used with an AIR application the requirement for a PKI issued certificate complicates the deployment of the network appliance by requiring DNS access, and thereby requiring Internet connectivity. Some customer sites require network isolation.
    It is possible to generate a developer-specific certificate and import that certificate into the AIR client host's Trusted Root Certification Authorities list. This workaround deteriorates PKI best practices and complicates the installation of AIR software. It is not possible to depend solely on the ".air" packaging for installation with the added requirement to install a new CA on the user's host.
    Java provides the requested functionality by allowing developers to provide their own implementations of javax.net.ssl.TrustManager for verification and javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier for identification. We have used this technique to communicate over the SDEE protocol with Cisco IDS devices which do not usually have PKI issued certificates.

  • Is there any way to use the bundled PHP compiler without web sharing on?

    Is there any way to use the bundled PHP compiler without Web Sharing on? Is there a way to make sure Web Sharing only allows local access so others on the network cannot access it? Any other easy way to get a PHP compiler on a Mac? I currently run Mac OS X 10.7.4. Any other security issues that might pop up from leaving Web Sharing on? Basically I just want a local PHP compiler so I can do some coding.

    You can use another router as an 'extender' (I know that this will work seemlessly with AirPort Extemes and AirPort Express's - you'll have to check with your router manufacturer to determine what they recommend for range extenders).
    You may also want to take a look at this link - http://www.wi-fiplanet.com/tutorials/7-tips-to-increase-wi-fi-performance.html - it may offer some tips.

  • Is there any way to prevent the OS from querying the Superdrive when start

    Just a random question. Whenever my MacBook Pro starts up (either from sleep or a complete/fresh start, the OS queries the drive slot to see if there is a disc present. While this may be normal behavior, it seems to slow down the start up process. (I rarely ever have a disc in the drive). Just curious if this, in fact, normal, or if there's something awry.

    No

    How can you tell? Based on the noise it makes?

  • Is there any way to retreive the FileName in the mapping

    Is there any way to retreive the FileName and so that I can use that in my mapping. This is FILE2RFC scenario with NO BPM.
       I am using the adapter specific message attributes in the file sender CC.
    Thanks,

    Yes you can retreive it.  Create an simple user defined function in the mapping and use the following code.
    Imports: com.sap.aii.mapping.api.*;
    Parameter: String filename
    Paramter: String filename;
    filename = fileName + ".DAT";
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
    .getTransformationParameters()
    .get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
    conf.put(key, filename);
    return filename;
    Or
    Just do whatever mentioned in this weblog:

  • Is there any way to repeat the last action on a new selection?

    I'm playing with Pages to see if I can use it instead of Word. I'm very expert with Word, just starting with Pages. Like some things, don't like some, but I think it's worth continuing to play with it to see if it will work for me. One problem I've been having is repeating an action. In Word, if you do something (in the particular situation I just had, it was deleting a row in a table), and then click on another place and do command-Y, it repeats what you did. Similarly, if you format a word as bold, say, and then select another word and do command-Y the second word will also be made bold. I realize the latter can be done in pages by selecting "emphasis" style for the second word, but I couldn't figure out any work-around for deleting the table rows (I tried selecting several non-adjacent rows, but "delete row" was greyed out on the actions menu). Any way to do this that I've missed?

    Thanks anyway. I'm sorry that Apple didn't include a "repeat" keyboard shortcut - going to the Inspector and then the actions wheel and then "delete row" time after time wasn't fun.
    I'm afraid I failed to communicate well about outline format - I didn't mean a bulleted or numbered list, I do know how to do that, but rather making a single character (or in my particular interest a symbol, the diamond and heart suit symbols) appear in outline text format. You can do it by going to format->font->outline, but if I want to do it for several occurrences of the same thing (or a few different things), it's not much fun to do it that way. But maybe I can define a character format that's outline and that will work. Still would prefer to have a keyboard shortcut to apply the character format though.
    Incidentally, while I'm talking about diamonds and hearts, is there any way to change the amount of space that gets put in after the diamond and heart symbols if you insert them using Edit->Special Characters? I write a lot of documents that use those symbols and lines end up unevenly spaced because of the large amount of space below each symbol (I've figured out a partial work-around - I defined a style for "body after suit symbol" that is raised enough to get the line spacing right, but that only works when I want to have a hard return at the end of the line with the suit symbols, since if the lines wrap, both lines have to have the same paragraph formatting. This problem isn't really Pages related - I have the same difficult with Word .

  • Is there any  way to Mask the Name when  a select statement is issued?

    e.g if Name: CHIEV SONG MEE

    CHXXV SXNG MXX
    Thank You

    but it seems there is no option in oracle it self which can be used as there they are saying to get a data masking software which we can't due to some internal issues....I would not say that. How one implements masking depends entirely on the requirements that need to be met.
    For example, schema A owns all the tables. Schema B can be created as a "trusted" schema - in other words, schema A trusts schema B and allows it full access (with grants) to its tables. Schema B implements data masking as views. For each table in A, a view exists in B that implements the required masking. B can now grant select access on these views to user C. User C will see the same data object names in B as it would have if it used A - only, by using the B data objects it uses masked data objects and not the original source data objects.
    Another example - schema Dev is to have all the data objects of schema Prod, but masked where needed. One can use CTAS (Create Table As Select) to create the required tables in Dev with masked values where relevant. This Dev schema can be "refreshed" on weekends by dropping all tables and getting a new fresh copy of production data and masking it - ready for the next week's development cycle.
    If the application use is for example APEX, then instead of coding SQL directly as reporting regions to display, a function is used instead. APEX supports reporting regions where it calls a function and this function provides the APEX run-time with the SQL to execute and contents to render. It is easy to use this approach to implement logic in functions that masked column data depending on who the APEX user is, the security/role attributes of the user, and so on.
    No there is not a single "+mask this column!+" feature in Oracle.. but that does not mean that such a feature is not supported and cannot be implemented. Oracle has a very comprehensive and rich set of tools - more so than most (if not all) other RDBMS products.
    It is up to the architect/designer/developer to use this toolkit in creating a system that meets the specific requirements at hand.
