Belkin Wireless keypad with Multimedia control - Model F8E855EA

Does anyone know if this numeric keypad is working on snow leopard? It says it does on the box, but I can't seem to get it connected. Battery is working, dongel is working, but I don't see the keyboard.
Does it need a special driver? I got the new small keyboard with my new iMac, and thought of adding this number keypad... At 50 euro's it would be sad if it would not work...
Any insight would be highly appreciated!

Hi Ralph,
Thanks for the reply. I re-read your page on SIP and realize that it was a modem (not router) issue after I posted. Dohh! Thanks for being so polite.
I agree that the DoS seems like the key, and hopefully the specific security log messages will facilitate useful feedback from the Belkin tech support folks to whom I sent a copy of my post.
I tried turning on WAN Ping Blocking - no change. The System Settings tab allows me to set the password, date/time, and enable/disable of remote management, NAT, UPNP, and auto-update for the firmware. Of those I have only switched UPNP on and off. Unfortunately there is nothing on packet size settings anywhere that I could find.
I tossed the packaging for the router, so I may not be able to return it easily. If this is the case, and Belkin (or someone in the forum) doesn't come through with a solution, I was thinking of buying an inexpensive wired router to connect between the modem and the iMac, and also run the Belkin off of the wired router for wireless access. Are there well-known problems daisy-chaining routers like this?
The obvious alternative would be to sell the Belkin (to some non iChat user) and replace it with something known to work well with iChat. I read a recommendation for the Netgear DG834G in another posting, which could also take the place of my Speedstream modem (although there is nothing wrong with it). Any other recommendations from this wise community?
For the time being I am switching between the router routine tasks and direct-to-modem with PPPoE for iChat. Not elegant, not easy to teach to spouse, but it works.
Cheers,

Extend Range of Belkin Wireless Router with Airport Express Base Station

I would like to know if I can extend the range of my Belkin N1 Wireless Router using the the Apple Airport Express Base Station?
If so, can someone help me to find out which settings/configuration I need to set of my Router and Airport Express in order the extend the range of my network.
Thank you in advance for your support.

DLink Xtreme wireless N cabled to the Time Capsule 1TB - Simultaneous dual-band Wi-Fi. In addition to extending wireless range, would this also allow me to connect cabled devices to the Airport? In essence, increasing the number of cable ports available on the network?
Connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the D-Link router to the WAN (circle icon) port on the Time Capsule.
Configure the Time Capsule as a "bridge" to use the exact same wireless network name, exact security and password as the D-Link router and you will in effect, have one large wireless network. Computers will be able to "roam" from one area to another and they will automatically connect to the router with the strongest signal.
The ethernet ports on the Time Capsule would be active and operate exactly the same as the LAN ports on the D-Link. Computers could plug into either router for an ethernet connection.
The toughest challenge in this type of configuration with routers from two different manufacturers is that they typically use different names for security types. If the security settings between the two routers do not match exactly, you won't have one network, you'll have two, each requiring a separate log on.
Check the configuration pages on the D-Link to see what type of security it is configured to use. Hopefully, it is +WPA2 Personal+, since that is the most compatible type of security among devices. Or +WPA/WPA2 Personal+ would work.
If the D-Link does not use this type of security, what is it using now? What are the other WPA associated settings that are available? We need to know this in order to provide you with the correct step by step configuration.
Post back with your questions and findings.

Can I use wireless headphones with my Sony model KDL 32L5000?

It is hard to hear voices well in some movies, I'd like some headphones but don't know if it is possible.
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes, it is possible to connect wireless headphones such as the Sony MDR-IF245RK to your KDL-32L5000 TV via the stereo mini plug cord. The single end of the said cord will go to AUDIO IN port on the headphone transmitter while the other ends of the cords will be connected to the AUDIO OUT of the TV (see here). Then set SPEAKERS option on the TV menu to AUDIO SYSTEM (page 27 of the manual). With this setup you can hear sound only through the headphones. You can hear sound from both TV speakers and headphones at the same time.
The MDR-IF245RK Headphones are in stock at our Sony Online Store here.

Belkin Wireless Range Extender (F5D7132)?

I've just bought a Belkin Wireless G Universal Range Extender (model: F5D7132) and am trying to get it to extend the range of our D-Link wireless network.
According to Belkin's installation guide, I simply need to place the unit next to my current wireless modem/router, hold down an 'Auto Connect Button' for 10 seconds, and the Belkin unit will then automatically extend the range of the D-Link.
Sadly, this hasn't happened, and Belkin's help pages are of zero use.
Does anybody have this unit? If so, are you able to point me in the correct direction to connect the unit to wirelessly extend my D-Link unit?

Hello, thanks BDAcqua, it is encouraging to hear from you. I will try to clarify the problem I am having. It is fairly simple to describe: Whenever I place my laptop within range of our Access Point(repeater), my Internet connection fails, server fails, etc., everything fails concerning Internet access, even though my Airport is showing full reception of the wireless signal. The wireless signal is coming through loud and clear, I am just unable to use it for anything whatsoever. Only if I remove my laptop from the range of the AP and place myself close to the 'main' wireless router am I able to go online(wirelessly). I can go online with Airport successfully anywhere I get reception except with the new AP we have set up here. The new AP at present works fine only with Windows OS.
I tried what you suggest in your reply and entered the two DNS server numbers, but no change yet.
I can still just get online if I stay very close to our primary router's signal. Any idea what I could try next? I did connect to Apple at router, but not at the AP.
Does this define the problem I'm having more clearly?
Thanks, jb

How can I disable the Wireless Keypad?

The touchscreen tablet chirps all day about a "Communications Failure" with the wireless keypad. The tablet itself and our iPhones are all we use to arm/disarm the system. Plus, the wireless kepad goes through batteries like nuts. How can we either disable the keypad, or disable the notifications?

I think you can remove the wireless keypad with the touchscreen. Go to settings, enter the installer code, find the keypad and remove it. If it burns through battery's it probably is too far away from the touch screen with not enough other devices in between. If you would place some other zigbee devices in between the keypad wouldn't need to increase it's radio signal to communicate.

IBook printing with Belkin Wireless Print Server

Hi Guys
Ok, I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction. I am a windows user (groan!, get a proper computer, yes, I know. lol lol) But trying to set up a simple network consisting of three pcs, one laptop all running windows xp/vista and one IBook. Not the best on macs but can find my way round!! All works Ok as far as seeing each other on the network and communicating/internet etc. Have introduced Belkin wireless print server to network and all ok for windows regarding printing wirelessly over the network. However, the IBook I set up as IP printing and set the appropriate address in the ibook printer setup screen. But when printing from the IBook it says the print has gone but it is actually stuck in the queue and never prints. Can anyone help with what may be a simple entry in the setup or is it some black magic IBook setting that evades us windows users??
All help will be gratefully received and promise to look at conversion!!
Thanks in anticipation of help..........

Your printer is a non-postscript printer and requires a CUPS driver in order to use the network printing protocols which are part of the CUPS system in OS X. Except for Brother, no manufacturer of non-postscript printers is providing CUPS drivers. The printer model doesn't show up because the OS X driver only works for USB. Apple tried to get around this by including open source Gimp-Print (CUPS) drivers with OS X. But very few HPs are supported. You should try HP Deskjet 900 Series, Gimp-Print driver to see if it "might" work.
For PPC Macs, there is another open source driver set that supports most HPs, including yours:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
But, these aren't Universal binaries, so they don't work on Intel Macs. The source code is available, and I think it will readily compile on your Mac, but I don't have an Intel Mac to try that on.
Next issue - print server setup. We don't have auto-setup software, so we have to read the manual closely and decide which protocol to use. If it's IPP (=internet printing protocol, not IP printing) or LPR/LPD, you need to find the print server's queue name (sometimes called port name), and enter that in Add printer dialog near IP address.
There are other ways to do network printing. The Airport Express print server from Apple allows you to use the USB driver because it uses Airport-Bonjour software to redirect USB output, instead of using standard protocols.
Hope this helps.

Belkin YourType Wireless Keypad won't connect

Belkin YourType WIRELESS KEYPAD (2015)
Mac Pro 1.1
Lion 10.7.5
Apple Wireless Keyboard/Magic Trackpad
I have just purchased Belkin's wireless keypad but can't complete the pairing process.
The device is recognised but I am unable to enter the displayed passcode as the keypad won't respond to any keystrokes. When pairing my wireless keyboard, the first passcode number was highlighted but the Keypad's passcode display does not show this. I have tried using 'Passcode Options' route, entering the passcode using the Wireless keyboard, without any success. I've tried the numbers lock but as keypad in responding at all I'm unsure what state the keypad is in. I've tried rebooting computer, re-inserting batteries... also holding power button untill passcode stage of pairing (which I used successfully when pairing Apple wireless keyboard).
Any other work-around suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks Barry.
I have contacted Belkin as you suggested, but after trying various combinations to connect I got the same result. The Belkin tech concluded the unit itself was faulty. I have exchanged it for another keypad at the Apple store but I'm getting the exact same problem.
Just to clarify what I am experiencing when trying to connect.
The pairing screen shown in Belkin's user instruction has a 'Pair' button which when clicked on will make the connection without the need for a passcode. My setup is different in that it does request a Passcode. When pairing Apple's Wireless Keyboard I was able to activate the code successfully, but with the Keypad the Passcode page seems inactive with all buttons greyed out - although by pressing the 'enter' key it takes me to the previous 'search for device' page.
The Keypad is the perfect addition to my studio setup, but perhaps it is not compatible with my setup.
Has anyone been successful in hooking up to a Mac Pro 1.1 OS X 10.7.5?

PowerMac G4 With Belkin Wireless Card

I recently moved my G4 (MDD) to the basement where I do not have wiring for the network. I have a belkin wireless pci card that I was not using so I thought I'd try to install it in the G4. How should I go about doing this. Thanks
Jon

If the Belkin card uses the Broadcomm chipset it will just work, otherwise confirm with Belkin that they supply Mac drivers.

Can i use a belkin wireless g router with an iMac

can i use a belkin wireless g router with an imac

It will work. The wireless card in iMacs (recent ones) work with n, g, and b networks. The g protocol is slower (54 mbs) versus n (130 mbs up to 300 mbs). My employer has hundreds of such access points and has been updating them all to n, but there are still some g routers they haven't gotten to, and they work fine. 54 mbs is not bad, it's about 5 megabytes/sec roughly. Typical actual throughput is lower than these numbers by ~ 50%, so doing a large Mac OS update download of 300 Megabytes would take about ~ 2 minutes with a g router, and maybe a bit less than 1 minute with an n router.

Wireless keypad not pairing with imac

I purchased a wireless keypad for my iMac but can't get it to pair with the Mac. The computer recognizes it but pairing is unsuccessful. I can't get it to work.

How did you get on? My brother is having a similar problem, he bought a replacement wireless keyboard which is not recognized by/paired with his iMac and thus he can't login..

List all users with full control on a SharePoint 2013 Sub site from SharePoint Object Model in C#

If I have a sub site URL and a user with Site Admin, can I list all users in that sub site that have Full Control at that level?
Any C# code sample?

Still you can do that, just pass the subsites to your code and from their you can find the users dynamically.
You could also use SPWeb.Users property to get users assigned to a subsite

alternatively you can also use SPWeb.SiteUsers to get all users

TS3474 I purchaed the earpods with mic & controls and they don't work with 6th generation nano. Are the features supposed to be compatible with this model of nano?

I purchased the earpods with mic & controls and the features don't work with 6th generation nano--is this normal?

Hi there,
According to the product page:
The remote and mic are supported by all models of iPod, iPhone, and iPad (not all models support volume up/down functions). Audio is supported by all iPod models.
Your iPod Nano may be one of the models that does not support the volume up/down function. Take a look at the page below for more information.

Why doesn't apple make a wireless keyboard with a built in keypad?

Why doesn't Apple make a bluetooth wireless keyboard with a built in keypad. I don't want clutter on my desktop, but I need a keypad. I think we should demand this product!

You can tell Apple your thoughts on them making such a keyboard:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
In the meantime, you can get an add-on keypad. If one of the separate keypads is too much clutter, then LMP makes one that attaches directly to, and matches aluminum finish of, the Apple Wireless Keyboard:
