Can Apple TV ethernet port be used as internet "out"?

I have my new Applet TV connected to my network wirelessly and everything is working fine. Given it's connected wirelessly, can the ethernet port be used as an "outbound" network connection? I want to connect my digital satellite box to the internet and the only way to get internet to it right now is to have an Airport Express connected. Seems a waste to have an Apple TV and Express right beside each other just for one more internet connection.
Thanks,

The current 27-inch iMac can. Other iMac models can't outside of a VNC setup or ScreenRecycler; all such solutions require a standalone monitor for setup and troubleshooting.

Thanks for replying. The plan you have it would be an additional charge to add the hotspot feature. It's not free with the Nationwide plan. You would need to add the feature online at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon

Quantum Gateway G1100 router - can't get ethernet ports to work?!

I just got a Quantum Gateway G1100 router, and the improvement in wireless networking speed over my old Actiontec router is as advertised.
However, I find that I can’t get any of my wired devices to connect to the router via any of the four yellow Ethernet ports on the back of the unit. I can only connect to this thing wirelessly. Hooking up my PC to the router with an Ethernet cable gets me no connection, not even to the router itself at 192.168.1.1 (or myfiosgateway.com).
I have a PC, a printer, a network drive/media server and a Roku all wired to my router, none of them are detected. I can connect my PC and Roku wirelessly, but the network drive and printer must be wired.
The instructions act like it should be plug-and-go for the Ethernet ports, which has always been my experience with other routers over 10+ years of using Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, Actiontec, etc., units. Usually it’s the wireless network config that has hiccups. This is a first for me.
Am I missing something obvious? I’ve swapped back in my old Actiontec router just to check things out, and the wired devices all see my home network and the internet as well.
Interestingly, if I go to the “My Network” tab on the router, I see one and only one Ethernet device. I don’t know what it is, and it is labeled “Active”, but it’s sitting on 192.168.1.4, which is the static IP address I’d configured my network drive to grab, yet it is not the network drive (any attempt to connect to it just times out).

it does give me an IP address for the ethernet connection - 192.168.1.151 - that is different from the one for the wireless connection, which is 192.168.1.152. I can see both of these listed on the router's connections as well, in the My Network tab, if I Show All. But if I disable the wireless, my PC cannot ping either iteself or the router at 192.168.1.1.
In fact, I can ping 192.168.1.152 (the wireless connection) but never 192.168.1.151.
There is no IP address for my other wired devices, except that I do see 192.168.1.4 appearing, which is the static address of the network drive device. But I cannot connect to it (there is a web and media server running on the device which ordinarily pops up a config screen at 192.168.1.4).

Using separate ethernet ports for LAN and internet

Following scenario:
A couple of Lion clients and a Lion server connected to a switch. Switch connected to router for internet access. All devices, clients, server and router are in the same C-Class net.
I'd like to connect the Lion server with 2 ethernet ports to the switch, so that one port is solely used for connections to the Lion clients (aka LAN) and the other port is solely used for connections to the internet. That way heavy LAN traffic to/from the server cannot bog down internet access to the server. Any ideas how to acomplish that?
Usually you would configure the Lion server as a router and connect the Lion clients (via a switch) to one port and the cable modem to the other, so both ports are in different subnets. But I don't want all internet traffic from the clients going through the Lion server.
The best I've come up so far was to configure both ethernet ports with static IP addresses. The one connecting to the clients with a 255.255.255.0 netmask but no router IP given. The one for internet with a 255.255.255.255 netmask and the router IP set to my physical router IP. It seems to work, but I'm not sure, whether this is the suggested way to do such a setup.
Maybe some manual editing of the routing table is are more solid solution?
Any tips appreciated.
Pete

What you want to do can be done but maybe not the way you are trying.
First yes, you would use two Etherner ports on the Mac, if it is a Mac Pro or XServe it has two built-in, other Mac models can do this using a USB Ethernet interface.
Next, the way I would normally do this is to have a separate switch for the WAN router, this would make the setup look like the following
LAN Switch ----- Server ------------ Router --- Internet
       | |                             |
       | |                            NAT
       | +-----------------------------+
       |
       +------ Client Devices
The router could be doing NAT via one interface, or a separate Firewall box could do the NAT.
Another possible way would involve segmenting the lan switch by setting up a VLAN and putting one port for the Servers second Ethernet connection on to that VLAN (using public IP addresses and the a connection to the router on that VLAN, the LAN switch could then route between the two VLANs. Cheaper LAN switches do not have this ability.

ACE: Can the ft-vlan port be used for other vlans or not?

Hi People,
I am a bit confused reading cisco's documentation. I am now using the ft-vlan in a dedicated port (no other vlans), but I would like to use it as a normal port in order to use it in a context.
From cisco website:
"You cannot use this dedicated FT VLAN Ethernet port for normal network traffic; it must be dedicated for redundancy only.
When you specify an Ethernet port or a port-channel interface as a dedicated FT VLAN, you have the option to either configure the dedicated VLAN as the only VLAN associated with the Ethernet port or port-channel interface, or to allocate it as part of a VLAN trunk link (see "(config-if) switchport trunk allowed vlan"). Note that the ACE automatically includes the FT VLAN in the VLAN trunk link. If you choose to configure VLAN trunking, it is not necessary for you to assign the FT VLAN in the trunk link along with the other VLANs."
First it says, you cannot use this port for other traffic, and then it says this port can be a trunk port. If the port is trunk, then obviously you pass other vlans too. Right? or not? So can the port that has the ft-vlan be used in a context with other vlans?
thanks,
george

Then simply do not use the 'ft-port' command.
This command "auto" configure the interface to be switchtrunk with one vlan allowed.
If you reconfigure the interface with your own switchport command, all you risk is some kind of collision or a future software version which will deny this kind of configuration.
Here is what I use to have vlan 500 part of a normal trunk interface.
But be aware, that if your interface is overloaded, FT traffic could get dropped and therefore you will end up with 2 active units causing major traffic disuption.
This is why we recommend to run FT on its own interface with no other traffic.
Generating configuration....
interface gigabitEthernet 1/1
switchport access vlan 1000

interface gigabitEthernet 1/2
shutdown
interface gigabitEthernet 1/3
switchport trunk native vlan 20
switchport trunk allowed vlan 10-500
no shutdown

Forcing a Mac with 2 connected ethernet ports to use one over the other

I have a G5 Quad and a Mac Pro that are connected to a large network (including internet) on ETHERNET 1, and they are also directly connected over ETHERNET 2 (using Jumbo Frames). I need to ensure the G5 uses ETHERNET 2, and not ETHERNET 1, to connect to the Mac Pro. They must use both connections. How do I do this?
Tim

I've solved the problem. When connecting to the other computer, don't map the drive from the Finder sidebar. Instead, go to the Finder, hit Cmd+K, or select Go > Connect to Server..., then type the IP address of the other computer's ethernet port that you are directly connected to. Then write an Applescript to automatically mount the drive on startup.
Example Applescript:
+mount volume "afp://192.168.1.1/"+
Compile and Save the script as an Application with none of the Options checked. Place the script on the remote computer (the G5 Quad in my situation) in a suitable location like the Documents folder for your Username.
Next, on the remote computer, open System Preferences > Accounts, and select the correct account. Select the Login Items tab, and click the + to add your Applescript application to the list. After adding the Applescript, check the Hide checkbox so the script runs in the background. Close System Preferences and you're done. Reboot the computer to verify it connects, and voila!

How can I add ethernet ports to a TC?

How can I add additional ethernet ports to a Time Capsule for my audio system to have direct hard wire to the Internet?

Go into any large computer store and ask for a switch.. 8 ports is usually the best value.. 5 is a couple to short and you lose one with the connection.. it is much better to plug all the items into the switch.. and just have one cable running to the TC from switch.. although that is not necessity.. it keeps speeds up for local LAN.
eg. Netgear GS108, GS608
TP-Link TL-SG1008D
You can buy them from $30 or so now.

Apple TV Ethernet Port

Quick question,
Is the Ethernet port on my Apple TV suitable to plug in a smart TV, in order to connect the TV to my WiFi network ?
Thanks,
David.

No, the ATV does not provide Internet access to any other device, it is not a hub/switch or Wi-Fi hotspot.

How can I know a port being used or not

Hello, I have a trouble, I don't know how to realize whether a port has been used or not.
For example, I have some command:
ServerSocket server1 = new ServerSocket(2001);
ServerSocket server2 = new ServerSocket(2002);
ServerSocket server3 = new ServerSocket(2003);
ServerSocket server4 = new ServerSocket(2004);
I wonder how I can realize the fact that server1, server1, server3 or server4 is avalable?
Please help me. Thank you.

Maybe you misunderstood my question. Not in the slightest. I answered the question you asked.
The fact is that you asked the wrong question. You asked about ports in use. You're now asking how to know if a Socket is active. That's a different question. A port is different from a socket, and they're both different from a connection.
To answer that new question, Java provides Socket.isClosed(), Socket.isConnected(), etc.
But note that all these APIs can do, in any language, is tell you what you have personally done with that Socket instance, in the current application. So actually these APIs are formally redundant: all they do is just maintain a few booleans recording what methods have been called. What they don't do, and can't do, in any language, is tell you about the state of the connection. Only reading or writing can do that.

Can Apple not force people to use the podcast app if they dont want to?!

Can Apple please NOT force people to use the podcast app if they dont want to?
It is a horrific app.
It uses data to play the podcasts which, once downloaded should not reqiure wifi to play!
Fix it, otherwise stop forcing us to use it and allow us a choice!

They do. There's lots of podcasting apps in the store, and you can erase the podcasts app and go back to the old way of playing them with the music app. Biggest downside is that you can't download podcasts on the phone without the podcasts app, so either do it on your computer or download the app, get the podcasts and erase the app. There's a few topics on here on how to do this. Search is your friend.

Network Configuration Window Freezes When USB NDIS Internet Connection Sharing and Ethernet Port Are Used Simultaneously

Current Setup:
Asrock Extreme 4 Z77 mobo with built-in Broadcom NetLink (TM) Gigabit Ethernet. Windows 8 Pro. Intel i5-3570k (using onboard Intel 4000 HD Graphics). RAID0- 2 OCZ Vertex 4's.
I will refer to this setup as my tower.
The Ethernet port works fine by itself. When I use wired tethering with my Android phone (Droid 4 running on 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich), it works fine when nothing is connected into the Ethernet port in the mobo.
The issue arises when I try to connect both simultaneously. The network configuration window in windows basically freezes and I cannot really navigate it without a ~60 second delay at best.
I would like to be able to accept the internet from my Android via a USB tether and either bridge the connection or use the internet connection sharing service to route traffic through the unused Ethernet port on the mobo (either to another computer/xbox
or more desirably a switch/router to spread to the entire home network). I have extensively researched the issue of Windows 8 become slow and unresponsive when I attempt to do this and I have not found anyone with the exact problem. I am able to
do both the MAC bridge miniport (bridge 2 connections) and Internet Connection Sharing though a Windows Vista (home premium) Laptop I have. The difference between the laptop and the tower I am try to do this on is the laptop has a WIFI and Ethernet connection
while the tower only has the on-board Ethernet.
Do I have all the necessary equipment to accomplish this, or do I need to buy a PCIe WIFI card? If so could I get away with just getting a USB WIFI dongle?
Any help would be very appreciated.

I had the same problem and came here by searching.
Per Rosengren's method solved the problem, but he didn't say how to do it, so I'll try to explain step-by-step for anyone that may venture here.
Open Device Manager (right click on Computer > Manage > on the left side, under System Tools choose Device Manager)
Choose the problematic device in Network Adapters (for me it's called HTC Remote NDIS based device)
Right click on it and choose Update Driver Software...
Click Browse my computer for driver software
Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers
Uncheck the box Show compatible hardware
For the manufacturer, choose Microsoft Corporation
Now you will have two options:
- Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device
- Remote NDIS Compatible Device
I chose the second one and it solved the problem, but if it doesn't work you could try the other one. In my case, the driver that was being used was neither of these, but a special driver from Android SDK ADT bundle.
Pick one and click Next. If a dialog comes up, confirm by clicking Yes.
Wait a few seconds for the connection to restart. If it doesn't work, try disabling and reenabling USB tethering on the phone, or reconnect the USB cable.
I should also note that I'm using a custom Android ROM on HTC Wildfire S (unofficial Cyanogenmod). If you have a stock ROM with HTC Sense, maybe this method may not work and you'll need a proprietary HTC driver.

Losing ethernet port after turning on internet sharing

Just received a new iMac with Mountain Lion. I am connected to the internet through ethernet. I was setting up to share my internet access through the system prefs panel and internet sharing checkbox. This used to be called web sharing. However, once I check internet sharing to turn it on, I lose my internet connectivity through my ethernet port. If I turn on my wifi, and set the status order to use wifi works, then the internet access works ok. If I uncheck internet sharing, the ethernet port does not come back working. I have to delete that ethernet port under the Network panel and then create a new ethernet port. Then everything will work again. I have not seen this problem before.
Any ideas appreciated.

Next time the ethernet drops off, try opening System Preferences/Network, click on the Assist me button, and run Diagnostics to see if that will show you anything helpful. If the ethernet is working now, likely the test will not show anything.
If you monitor the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads. Maybe you can find other ideas there.

Why can't I p.t.v. using 'in to out' in FCE 3.0?

I am trying to print to video using 'in to out' from the pop up window/dialogue box, but it just stalls after printing five seconds of lead-in. Print to video is working fine when I choose 'entire media' from the pop up window. Why won't FCE print to video using 'in to out' points in my timeline?

Thanks, I think I answered my own question. (I had to change my 'Easy Setup' settings to NTSC DV in order to 'output' my video because output was set to none, under Custom setup), but I had set my in and out points on my timeline prior to the new settings change (in my 'easy setup'). Those in and out pts were locked in to my older settings apparently, even though I moved them around afterwards. After deleting those in/out points in my timeline, and then making new ones, I can now ptv using 'in to out' option.
