Can I be connected to two networks at the same time?

Hi there
I have an imac desktop with 10.5.8 running. I have a wireless network with my timecapsule and a printer connected to it. We have two mac computers in the house
that print wirelessly via this network. I also have the internet coming in via a wireless modem/wifi which both computers use to go online. The trouble is everytime I want to print from either computer I have to change back and forth from the internet/network to the timecapsule/printer network. This is really fumbly and I wind up having to restart all the time because the printer gets locked up. It's just a big hassle. Is there any way I can be on both of these networks at the same time or is there some other way I can configure this?
Thanks!

Yes, you can reconfigure the Time Capsule (TC) to "Join a wireless network." In this case the wireless network would be the one created by the other wireless Internet router. In this configuration, the TC can still share its internal (and external) hard drive and a printer attached to the USB port. However, note that this would disable the TC as a router and an Ethernet switch so basically it will perform as a wireless client.

Connecting to two networks at the same time

Hi Kadin,
I am looking for the same answer for a long time. I have two situations that requires to connect to two different metworks and that is when I travel with my portable Linksys router WRT54GC .
1. I stay at a hotel with a wireless Internet network connection and I try to use the network to access the Internet and then (2) I also need to access my external Maxtor harddrive to which I am connected through my portable router WRT54GC .
2. I have an almost identical situation but instead of the hotel network now I have a brand new T-Mobil cell phone made by ITC, which is called Wings and it uses a new way to connect my laptop to the Internet by using a Windows Mobile 6 Internet-share connection, which basically connects my laptop to the T-Mobile network and assigns it a IP address.
The problem that I have is that in both cases I can connect to each one of the networks separately but not simultaneously.
Any advise as to how this can be done. I also tried the Wireless WET54G as a bridge with similar negative results.
Thanks,
Pole

Ok not real clear on your setup, but here is the "networking answer" why you can not connect to two networks.
A device must have an IP address on the same subnet of the device you want to establish a connection or an IP route must be known to the network routers, since your internal address are most likely in the reserved private range, no internet router is not going to know how to deliver the packets to the correct hosts.
the simple answer is assign a secondary IP address to the network adapter on your laptop.
In the windows IP address properties for secondary address you can not set a default gateway. Windows only has 1 default gateway.
good luck

One again, "can I use CC on two computers at the same time?" - in practice.

I know this has been asked before and all those threads are locked. Many asked the question, but I haven't found a satisfying answer yet.
Can I multi task with CC?
I want to have my laptop next to my desktop. And while I render, export or whatever my newly shot documentary on the laptop I want to work with a music video project on my desktop. Then when the render is finished I render the music video and go back to the laptop and continue on the documentary. Or maybe I just work 5 minutes on the desktop music video, then come up with something brilliant for the project on the laptop and switch. Back and forth. Will that kind of activity result in any kind of limitation, usage-wise?
So, working on Premiere on my two computers at the same time.. is it possible? Technically? I know the EULA says "only one person". But will it let one person mutli task?
I need to know this before I buy. sorry for asking this again, please bless me with a clear answer

Hi Jimmy Crim,
Yes in case of Creative cloud subscription you are allowed to install and use the cc apps in any two machines.
Even if you want you care allowed to use these apps together in both the machines.
Thanks

Can the ipad connect to two bluetooths at the same time.

i have an ipad 2 and i just bought the ipad 2 with the bluetooth keyboard, but i was wondering if the ipad could connect to the keyboard and mouse bluetooth at the same time.

You can only pair with one device at a time

Two Networks at the same time

For various reasons we have two entirely separate networks that we do not wish to create into one big network. Is it possible for me to connect to both networks simultaneously ie one through a cable connection and one through Airport, so that I can use one for internet access and the other for file sharing?
As I understand it, the cable and wireless network cards in my emac are two separate entities, each with their own MAC address, so shouldn't this be possible in theory? One problem might be that I don't want to create a bridge between the networks that would enable computers on either side to see each other.
Any advice gratefully received.

Hi Dave,
Yes, you can connect to the internet and your LAN at the same time. The following article explains various ways of doing it.

Can I Send Music to Two Airtunes at the same time?

I read somewhere there was some software or other fix that would allow me to send my iTunes music to two separate Airport Express Airtunes (to different stereo systems in different rooms, of course) at the same time.
Is this true? If yes, how/where do I get the fix?

And there would be no easy way to synchronize the
sounds coming out of two Airport Expresses controlled
by two different users.
I'm not denying that. My point is that synchronizing multiple AirTunes streams is far from trivial due to the prebuffering delay and the fact that TCP is being used as a transport. The TCP transport is the most complicating factor because of the automatic retries when packets are dropped, which introduces latency (delays).
There's one other difficulty with TCP: The communication is point-to-point. This means that each Express must have its own stream. With each stream taking approximately 700 kbps of bandwidth, two Expresses would chew up 1.4 Mbps of bandwidth, three would use 2.1 Mbps, etc. If you have a less-than-ideal wireless connection, dropouts become much more likely with each added Express.
There's actually a convoluted approach I figured out over a year ago involving n + 1 users, each running an instance of iTunes, where n is the number of Expresses being streamed to. Nicecast was used to create an MP3 stream from one iTunes instance and then the other iTunes instances would pick up the stream and play it through the Expresses. It, too, suffered from the bandwidth escalation I described above.

HT2736 Can I gift a song to two people at the same time so I only have to go through the process once?

As the subject says can I gift a song to two people at the same time so I only have to go through the process once? For example can I enter two seperate email addresses in the "To" line seperated by a semicolon like I can in Outlook?
Thanks for the help

How can I compare more than two VIs at a same time in labview 2009

How can I compare more than two VIs at the same time. I am an Lab Engineer I have to check assignments submitted by students and I want to know how many of them are copied from each other. Labview compare VI can only compare two VI at a time while I want to check about 30 VIs at same time.
Regards,

I'm not aware of a tool to compare multiple VIs. If you don't find anything, consider posting this to the LabVIEW Idea Exchange to expose this idea directly to NI R&D.
Thanks!

I am using several Macs running Yosemite. I was recently “upgraded” to Xfinity’s new cable modem which can support both 2.5Ghz and 5Ghz networks at the same time. Actually I can connect to the internet over both with a satisfactory bump in speed for the Ghz. However when I connect to the 5Ghz the Time capsule disappears from the Airport Utility and claims to be Not Found. Is there something I have done wrong or just a Yosemite Teething Problem

First restart your mac and try again.
It could be
that the router and the TC are interfering wirelessly with each other.
You can check this by pressing the option key while clicking on the wireless icon on your screen
Open Wireless Diagnostics
enter your user password
Press CMD 4 then Scan
You will see all the wireless channels being used in your location and you can check if they are on the same channel
Make the SSID for the TC simple like MyTC
Set 5Ghz to auto
Update the TC
Try again

Can i power my iphone from the mains and connect to my mac at the same time

HI
Here is my dilemma, my daughter dropped my wifes iphone in the bath and it will now only power up when plugged into the mains. When plugged in it cannott find the sim and according to the local apple store the wifi antenna is also broken.
We are not bothered about the phone it is the 1500 photos and videos of our girls which we dont want to lose. The phone hasnt been backed up recently and she is not registered with icloud so that is out the window.
So, i thought that if the phone could be powered by the mains and somehow connected to my pac at the same time i could perhaps get the photos synced and then the phone can be traded in at the store for a £119 replacement, thank you by the way Apple!!! you pay full retail for a product (£419) and all you get told is "your phones knackered, that will be £119 please"
It worht pointing out that the USB doesnt turn the phone on when connected to the mac.
Is there such a cable in existence which has two usb leads from the iphone dock connector??
I just cant beleive that the photos and videos cannot be accessed and saved by a company that always tells us they are cutting edge and ahead of the rest of the market, especially as the phone traded in will get, repaired, wiped and sold on as a refubed phone, if they can do that they can get us our files off.
Anyway, any advice, assitance, product reccommendations would be very very welcome.
Many Thanks

How, exactly, would you propose connecting it to both an AC power adapter and your computer when it has only one dock connector? If you don't want to set it on fire, I wouldn't try.
If it can power on when on AC power AND it can connect to either the cellular network or WiFi, plug it in and power it on and e-mail the photos to yourself. Not the most elegant solution, but it beats losing all of them. I assume you were not in the habit of backing up very often.

Can I access two websites at the same time?

Does Dreamweaver have the ability to open two websites at the same time?
I basically have a CMS hosted on one server, that connects to my clients sites on other servers. I want to be able to open files on one server and edit them and also edit files on another server at the same time.
If this isn't available in Dreamweaver, then I think it should be. I often need to copy code from one page in a site to another page in different site. To have the ability to have two windows open, each connected to a different website server would be invaluable to me. By having separate windows, each can have its own server connection. I don't know how easy that would be, but I'd love it!
Cheers

You can only connect to one site at a time. And you need to edit files locally, save & then upload to the remote server. AFAIK, no single FTP app is capable of connecting to more than one server at a time. You might be able to do what you want with DW open and an additional 3rd party FTP client like Filezilla, each connecting to different servers.

How can I start two Vi at the same time?

I have two Vi's, each of these Vi has a stop button. I want to start these two Vis at the same time. I also want to be able to stop the two Vis at the same time. What should I do? Thanks.

One way to start them is with an Invoke Node and the Run method. You can then stop them with the Set Control Value [Variant] method. When you use the Set Control Value [Variant], you just have to specify the name of the front panel control that stops the while loop. Older versions of LabVIEW only had the Set Control Value method in which you had to use the flatten to string function to pass the Type Descriptor and Flattened Data.
