Blocking one device?

I know this sounds **bleep**, but bear with me. I have no clue about any of this. Is there a way to block one device from using the wireless in my house? Let's say, hypothetically of course, that I want to block a certain adolescent's iPod from accessing the internet. Can I block just that device? Or is there a way to set up a password that everyone who uses the wireless would have to have?
Thanks in advance....

Yes to both questions.
1) If you want to block a specific device, you can use an advanced filter.
Click on the Advanced icon
Select Network Objects
Click Add. The Edit Network Object screen is displayed.
Enter a description such as "Blocked iPods".
Click Add again
Select MAC address from the pull-down.
Enter the MAC address of the iPod you want to block.
APPLY. The Network Objects screen is displayed.
Click ADD if you want to add another device to the rule, otherwise APPLY.
Click on the Firewall Settings icon.
Select Advanced Filtering from the menu on the left.
Under Output Rule Sets, Click ADD across from Wireless Access Point Rules
Add Advanced Filter screen is displayed.
From the Source Address field, select "Blocked iPods".
From the Operation radio button, select drop.
In the "When should this rule occur" pull-down, select Always or create a schedule.
APPLY
Click APPLY again.

Unable to connect more than one device

Hi.
We have copper Broadband with a fairly decent speed (13MB) and a HH3.
I run a desktop PC for general internet access but my wife uses an iPad and is always downloading films, music etc. We also have a BT Vision box which is connected via Ethernet direct to the HH3 (there are no issues at all with the Vision).
The hub is located centrally within very close range of the devices with no major structures blocking the path, indeed wireless strength is excellent.
For a long time now it has been the case that with one of us on, the other cannot use their device as the connection is either too slow or it actually knocks the other off-line. I used to run an Ethernet connection for my PC (my wife is wireless) but having read that the HH3 does not like mixed connections I bought a wireless dongle which initially seemed to help but now we are back to where we started.
Re-starting the hub sometimes seems to help but not always and might just be a coincidence.
Obviously it is very inconveniant being able to only use one device at a time.
Does this sound like a hub issue?

It could be a faulty hub because the HH3 should be able to handle multiple connections of both wireless and Ethernet without problem.
The first thing do do is try a factory reset of the homehub by pressing a pin into the recess button on the rear for about 20 seconds which can often sort out configuration problems.

How to block mobile devices connected to internal Wi-Fi networks on Lync 2013

How to block mobile devices connected to internal Wi-Fi networks on Lync 2013.
we don't have lyncdiscoverinternal.contoso.com and lyncdiscover.contoso.com in internal DNS record, all mobile users are connecting from Internet, and we want it to be that way.
So if I create the lyncdiscoverinternal.contoso.com record for Windows desktop clients autodiscover, how do I block internal mobile users from connecting to Lync??
Praveen | MCSE Messaging 2003

Hi Praveen,
Based on my experience, one way to achieve this purpose you need to use the Reverse Proxy that is integrate with a Firewall (e.g. TMG 2010 , F5, etc…).
Please have a look at the following picture.
In Lync Server 2013,
both the internal Mobility Service URL and the external Mobility Service URL are associated with the external Web Services FQDN.
From the above picture, if you use a reverse proxy that is
separate from the firewall, then the hairpin will be created,
and cause the mobile client which connected to the internal Wifi will be able to
access the external interface of the Reverse Proxy.
In this situation, the mobile client which from Internet will not be effected.
Best regards,
Eric

Blocking a device on a Stand Along Cisco AP

Hello all I have a device that is constantly trying to use some one else' credentials to authenticate and locking that persons account on one of the stand alone AP's. I went ahead and tried to block the MAC by using the MAC filter ACL on the AP but looks like it is still able to connect and send the authentication request. Is there a way to completely block this device?
Here is what I did:
conf t
access-list 700 deny xxxx.yyyy.xyz1 0000.0000.0000
dot11 association mac-list 700
end
wr mem
exit
Also when I do "show acces-list" I do show hits on the "deny" ACL.

Thank you yes that was one of the site I used to setup the ACL. Weird thing is that I did not see that device trying to associate in the logs however the ACL shows denies.
Bridge address access list 700
deny 1834.51af.a953 0000.0000.0000 (110 matches)
permit 0000.0000.0000 ffff.ffff.ffff (12 matches)
And looking at the ACS server I see the wrong authentication requests from this particular AP and the MAC address that is being denied.

My internet keeps freezing and blocking other devices

My wifi works for about 10 seconds then freezes, it also blocks other devices from using the wifi (when I switch off they are fine), have tried re-setting and clearing the computer and internet history, does any one have any advice please?

THe Gen3 TC fails on the ethernet side fairly often due to capacitor failure.
See here.
https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem s/apple-time-capsule-repair/new-issue-with-a1355-gen-3-tc
There are two distinct issues.. capacitors shorted and the whole thing stops.. capacitors lose their function .. go open circuit if you like and then the ripple goes up to the point where ethernet fails.

How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

unless i'm missing something, i think you got mixed up, this is easy google for walk throughs
i'm assuming this is the new 3tb tc AC or 'tower' shape, if so, its wifi will run circles around your at&t device
unplug the at&t box for a minute and plug it back in
factory reset your tc - unplug it, hold down reset and keep holding while you plug it back in - only release reset when amber light flashes in 10-20s
connect the tc to your at&t box via eth in the wan port, wait 1 minute, open airport utility look in 'other wifi devices' to setup the tc
create a new wifi network (give it a different name than your at&t one) and put the tc in bridge mode (it may do this automatically for you, but you should double check) under the 'network' tab
login to your at&t router and disable wifi on it
add new clients to the new wifi network, and point your Macs to the time machine for backups

If you change the apple id on one device, is the id locked to that device for three months?

I bought two ipod touches for my children last week (all kids under 10 if it makes a difference). Child #3 already has one. When I bought them, I was told that I can download movies on each for an upcoming long distance trip. If child 1 wants to watch something downloaded on child 2's ipod, they can sign in under child 2's account and watch it on their own ipod BUT it won't be saved to that device.
However, I went in today to get them set up. I asked about this, and music and other things. I was told that if you sign in on one device under a different apple id, that device is locked to that apple id for three months. Its apparently an effort to stop pirating. I was told its the same for music. If I buy a song on my account that my 5 year old wants, I have to buy it twice because if my son signs onto his ipod under my apple id, the ipod is then under my account for the next 3 months, along with all my games, music etc. and his apps are no longer accessible to him.
Is this acccurate? Honestly, I"m afraid to try. I don't want my kids to be stuck with my apple id, which has no apps or antyhing attached to it other than some music.
BTW I had to set up their own itunes account despite that they're too young to have one because we're maxed at 5 devices (2 iphones, ipad and our own ipods). We couldn't add any others so I created a itunes account for my two youngest to share and a separate account for my 10 year old so that he could have his own facetime.
Can anyone help? Can I sign onto my kids ipod with my id without having them locked out of their apps? Can the two of them share a movie?

Not exactly but it is locked for the purpose of redownning past purchases. See:
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID

Can I have paid apps on more than one device and how?

This must have been answered before, but I wasn't sure how to search for it, so apologies in advance...
I have several Apple devices and I want to put the paid apps I have on one device on another as well. I would have assumed this was possible - perhaps via iTunes, but I can't see how to do it.
It doesn't seem to make any difference whether I restore from a previous device's backup (to the new device), or create a 'new' device.
So, for example, I have bought Air Display for my iPad mk1 and I now want to put it on my iPad mini as well. (I don't want to use them simultaneously.) The iPad mini is set up as a new device, so hasn't been restored from the iPad mk1's backup.
As another example, I have an iPhone 5 that I restored from an iPhone 4s backup. Most things were installed, but none of the paid apps came across and they're not listed in my iTunes library.
Do I have to buy them all again? Or am I doing something wrong? I would have assumed that they would be stored with my account details (all the devices are set up with the same Apple id).
Many thanks.

It is possible, I have some of my apps on my iPad and iPhone (and some of them on an old iPod Touch). A backup doesn't contain the apps, just their contents and settings, so unless the actual apps are on your computer's iTunes then restoring to a backup won't copy them onto it.
You should be able to copy your apps (and other iTunes purchases so that you have copies of them and so that you can sync them either back to the same device if you ever need to restore it, or to other devices that you own) from the device that they are on to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases) and then sync them to the other devices (assuming that you have the relevant iOS version on them and the apps are compatible e.g. some apps are iPad-only, and some require full-phone capabilities so are iPhone-only). Or you can re-download them on your computer's iTunes and sync them or re-download them directly on the device that you want them on.

My AirPort Extreme will only let me have one device on the wifi at a time. How do i put multiple computers, phones, and wireless devices on my wifi network at the same time?

I have a Macbook Pro and it works perfectly fine on my AirPort extreem until I try and put a different computer, ipod, or phone on the wireless. When I try and put more than one device on the network only one device will receive internet access and the other(s) will get a message saying it is because of a shared ip address. Is there a way to change it so they can all share an ip address? Please help me configure my wifi and devices so that I can use more than one device on the wifi at a time.
Thanks!

Hmm... Those two screen shot disagree. the first shows that the duplication was on 192.168.1.64, while the second showed you were using 192.168.1.63. That confuses matters further.
From the screen that you show, click on the "Advanced..." button in the lower right, then the "TCP/IP" tab.
SHow us a shot of the screen or copy the text from the "Configure IPv4" line and the three under that (IPv4 Address, Subnet Mask, and Router).
Then launch AirPort Utility.
If you have one of the old 5.6.x versions:
* Click on the icon for your Extreme.
* Click on the "Manual Setup" button and supply the password if needed.
* Click on the "Internet" icon at the top.
* Click on the "DHCP" tab.
* Give us a screen shot or transcribe the results.
If you have AirPort Utility 6.2 (the latest):
* Click on the icon for your Extreme.
* Click on the "Edit" button in the balloon that pops up, supply the password if needed.
* Click on the "Network" tab.
* Give us a screen shot or transcribe the results.

Multiple apple IDs on one device

Can i use more than one apple id on one device, though not simultaneously. I have an office apple id which has my corporate card linked, and a personal id with my personal card linked. can these two be used on one device of course one at a time.
thank you for help with this information.

Note though, that as far as the iTunes or App store is concerned, you can only change the AppleID once every 90 days, see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627

Is there a stereo bluetooth headset that can pair with more than one device at a time?

Is there a stereo bluetooth headset that can pair, i.e. multipoint, with more than one device at a time?
Are the MacBook and iPhone 4 capable of multipoint bluetooth technoloagy?
The goal is for my wife to be able to watch her Korean TV soap operas on her MacBook and still receive a call on her iPhone 4 via a stereo bluetooth headset.
I was looking at the Motorola S10-HD but after further review saw that it only pairs with one device at a time.
Appreciate any and all input. My Googling has returned no results.

You can only pair one device at a time to your 8330, or any other phone for that matter. The "pairings" are saved to the phone, you can use one or the other and you won't have to pair it again. Once you turn your bluetooth device on and the phone is on, they will find each other again.
Hope this helps,

E3200 - USB port does NOT work for more than one device

We needed a new router that had the dual band connectivity as our previous router stopped working properly when we started using a baby monitor operating on the same 2.4 GHz. The choice was between E3200 and E2500. We chose the E3200 mainly because it also offered a USB port. We were hoping to use that to connect our printer and two external drives (thus bypassing our old desktop that's been working as a server). However, it turns out that the USB port on E3200 does NOT support USB hubs! So, you can ONLY use ONE device - either a printer or one external storage drive. That wasn't really clear at all from the description. I feel like we wasted the extra $50 hoping to get functionality that just isn't there. Can't believe that in this day and age, Cisco thinks we all have only ONE USB device we might want to connect to the network! The router itself is fast enough, but the extra $50 for a USB port that doesn't do much and some speedboost phantom ability is just not worth it.

Just to save time to you all, after numerous attempts to install a USB hub to my E3200,
I wrote to Cisco Customer Service (live chat) and I specifically requested how to set up the usb hub or the virtual USB port and they said that they do not have a software to install a USB hub.
Hope this help

How do I change an Apple ID just for one device, an iPod Touch?

Hello, all...I recently purchased my nephew (I'm his guardian and am raising him) a brand new iPod Touch for his 13th birthday. I activated the device using my Apple ID (which I also use for my iMac, iPhone and Macbook Air). I'm thinking now about changing his iPod over to a different Apple ID to keep my iCloud "pure" (for lack of a better word), with just my stuff on it, and because his iPod is mysteriously picking up text messages to me that are supposed to go to (and which still do go to) my iPhone. Is it possible to change the Apple ID for just that one device, the iPod and, if so, how does one do that? I have several e-mail accounts/addresses that I could use instead of the one I use for my current Apple ID. I'm technology-challenged in the worst way, so your help/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

CHANGE ID
The ID is used in the following locations and you have to change them.
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
Settings>iCloud
and Settings>iTunes and App store
You have to sign out of ID (for iCloud you delete the iCloud account from the iPod) and sign in with other ID.
Note the following are resolved if you use Family Sharing (iOS 8 and later):
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
If the iPod has iOS 7 or later then you have the enter the password for Apple ID presently sign in Settings>iCloud.
Also, a Restriction can be set (Settings>General>Restrictions) the prevents changing accounts

How do I sign out of iCloud just on one device? And will deleting my account on iCloud completely delete the account or just on this one device?

I am sharing an iCloud account and I want to sign out of iCloud! But when I go to settings and my iCloud account the account name is ge
Grey as If I can't change it.

That means the Restriction is set that prevents changing accounts. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and unset it so you can delete the account.
Deleting the account for one device does not effect the account on other devices.

How do I change my Apple ID on only one device?

How do I change my Apple ID on only one device? I inherited my husband's iPhone 5. He cleared it but I set it up with same Apple ID so we could share same iTunes account. However, I realised that there are inconveniences such as not being able to Facetime each other. In addition, his iTunes account is UK-based and we'd like to also have a New Zealand iTunes account for various reasons.

Go to settings/icloud and sign out. Then sign in by creating a new Apple ID. Do the same in Settings for Messages, FaceTime and iTunes & App Store. Next, link your Apple IDs using Family Sharing so you can still share music and apps. Family Sharing - Apple Support
