Can I move EA6500 router out of basement to 2nd floor of my house for better wireless range?

I am having issue with EA6500 wireless range from one end of house to other.  Currently, the EA6500 router is in the basement connected to my SB6141 cable modem.
Would it be possible to move EA6500 out of basement and to the 2nd floor of my home while keeping modem in the basement.
I was wondering if I could purchase a switch to place between cable modem and router which would allow me to place the router in closer proximity to my wireless devices.
I've already tried changing wireless channels and using inSSID but that has not resolved my problem.
Please let me know.  Thanks.

It is possible to change the EA6500 router’s location from the basement to the 2nd floor. You need to have a long cable but it should not be 100 meters long since it will cause the connection to drop. It is also advisable to have a wireless AC adapter on our wireless devices/computers to optimize the wireless features of the EA6500 router.
For your Connected Home, you may use the 2.4 GHz network to connect your wireless devices to surf the Internet and email, share files and print.  The 5 GHz network is best for heavy applications including Voice over IP (VoIP) calls, online gaming, and streaming high-definition videos.

    Share your GarageBand iPad project to iTunes as a project. Then you can import it into GarageBand and upgrade it to a GarageBand Mac project. And Logic can open GarageBand for Mac projects.

  • I can't move text boxes out of box at top of page

    I am using the iWeb SEO program to optimize my site for search engines.  In so doing I created my own hyperlinked page names in individual text boxes and then placed them at the very top of the page.  The trouble is that they will not show up when I update the site and I cannot move them out of a box at the top of the page.
    There is a thin, wide rectangle sitting atop a thin line that runs all the way across the page.  I cannot delete that thin rectangular box and if I try to drag it down it hits the line and just pushes the line further down.  The same thing happens if I grab any of my navigation boxes (Home, etc.)  If I attempt to move them down than that thin line moves down as well pushing the rest of the content down as I go.  How do I rescue my navigation boxes from this area and why in the world are they locked in there in the first place???????

    Hold the command key to dag textboxes from one layer to another.
    And the default navigation links are locked in the naviation layer by design.
    To add your own custom navigation, have a look here :

  • Moving to France from North America - can I move my router

    Hi,
    Seems most of my computer equipment will be fine on the new voltages. Anyone know if my old Linksys router GHz will work with a simple wall converter plug? 
    Are there other network config issues I should consider? We're moving from Alberta to France, Paris specifically.
    Thanks for any advice.
    Dawn

    Check the power adapter. If it's 100-240V you can use it. If not, you can buy a universal power adapter in an hardware store which delivers the same output voltage and enough ampere.
    Please remember, that your router with american firmware can only use channels 1-11 on 2.4 GHz band. You are allowed to use 12 and 13 in Europe.
    Also remember, that your old router may be too slow for a new, faster internet service, depending on how old the router is. Thus, you may get a 100 Mbit/s service and your router isn't able to deliver it that fast. In the end you may get a new router anyway...

  • Can't move an application out of the applications folder to a different location?

    I had a couple of applications in the applications folder that I thought would be better suited on the desktop, but evertime I tried dragging the application to the desktop (or any other location on my Mac for that matter) it only seemed to create a shortcut, eventually I resorted to moving the application to the trash and then from the trash to the desktop, but this seems a bit cumbersome, isn't there a better way to do it? In the future should I settle for just creating a shortcut?

    But they were originally placed on the desktop when I first installed them, then manually put in the applications folder myself.
    Thanks for the speedy reply

  • How can you move the objects from one server to another?

    how can you move the objects from one server to another?

    Hi,
    Collecting objects for Transporting
    1. rsa1->transport connection
    2. left panel choose 'object type', middle panel choose 'infocube' and 'select objects'
    3. then choose your infocube and 'transfer'
    4. will go to right panel, choose collection mode 'manual' and grouping only 'necessary objects'
    5. after objects collection finished, create request
    6. If they are $TMP, then change the package.
    7. When you click the Save on the change package, it will prompt for transport. Here you can provide an existing open transport request number, or if you like here itself you can create a new one.
    8. You can check the request in SE09 to confirm.
    Releasing Transport Request  
    Lets say you are transporting from BWD to BWQ
    Step 1: In BWD go to TCode SE10
    Step 2: Find the request and release it (Truck Icon or option can be found by right click on request #)
    Note: First release the child request and then the parent request
    Steps below are to import transport (generally done by basis )
    Step 1: In BWQ go to Tcode STMS
    Step 2: Click on Import queue button
    Step 3: Double Click on the line which says BWQ (or the system into which transport has to be imported)
    Step 4: Click on refresh button
    Step 5: High light the trasnport request and import it (using the truck icon)
    Transport

  • How can I move music from my iPod touch to my new macbook.

    So here's the deal, I have been using my parents apple ID ever since I bought my first apple product. I have a TON of music stored up on their apple ID (Both cd's and iTunes music). I just got my own apple ID and have successfully transferred my music to my iPod touch. How can I move that music to my new macbook? The macbook is authorized for my parents apple ID and I can download the music that I bought from the iTunes store, but the problem is that I can't move the stuff originally from CD's. Most of the CD's are already trashed, lost, forgotten, and the only copy I have left is on my parents iTunes.

  • I have an older Power Mac and it does not have the ability/hardware to connect to my wireless network.It is on 2nd floor which has no ethernet connections available. How can I get connected wirelessly?

    I have an older Power Mac desktop computer. I do not believe it has the hardware to connect wirelessly to my wireless network. The computer is located on the 2nd floor of my house where there are no ethernet network connections so I would have to use wireless to connect to the internet. I have a wireless LinkSys router downstairs that I use to create my wireless network. I also have a Time Capsule upstairs but without the ability to plug an ethernet network cable into it, I cannot use it to get internet access t the computer.
    What hardware can I add to give me the abiity to connect the Power Mac to my wireless network?
    Is there a way perhaps to link routers? IE. Can I somehow have my existing wireless router downstairs connect wirelessly with the Time Capsule upstairs that i could then plug the Power Mac into for connectivity?
    Not sure what version of OS this computer is currently using but do know it does not have the newer dual Intel processors. As such I am unable to update to newer OS versions.

    While uselessSABOTAGE's advice is great, in case of future issues, it would helps us in the future if you would post accurate tech specs of your model iMac.
    You info states you have an older IMac PowerMac, but is also says your OS X version is OS X 10.7.2.
    This is not possible. OS X 10.7.2 Lion only runs on Intel CPU Macs.
    Please, go up to the Apple symbol in the upper top left of OS X main menu bar. Click the symbol. Then click About this Mac. A popup window appears that gives some basic info. Then, click the More Info button and both post your iMacs complete specs by selecting/highlighting all of the info and copy paste this into a reply to this post, editing out your iMac's serial number. Then update the info you posted in your user profile with some of this new found data for future postings.

  • We have a movie downloaded on a laptop connected to the internet pluged into our router in the basement and an apple tv upstairs trying to play the movie through home sharing but it wont play. can anyone tell me whats wrong?

    we have a movie downloaded on a laptop connected to the internet pluged into our router in the basement and an apple tv upstairs trying to play the movie through home sharing but it wont play. can anyone tell me whats wrong? it comes to the last loading page where it shows the desscription of the movie befor it acually plays.

    It can come about without any change done by the user, and it's not just from other networks. The placement of the router can also affect performance. Also make sure router is up to date.
    Apart from that would be the reboots.

  • I'm running Final Cut Express 2. How can I move entire project and application from one internal hard drive to another? Ran out of space on one drive. Thanks.

    I'm running Final Cut Express 2. My video project is 95% done and I've run out of space on my 500g internal hard drive. How can I (1) move the complete FCE program and video to my unused 250g internal hard drive and operate it from there and (2) how do I then purge all the FCE info from the 500g drive without losing anything from the 250 drive?
    Also, is it possible to change the aspect ratio from 4:3 to 16:9 when the project is finished? If so, how? I now know this all should have been done before I started. Thanks for the help.

    1. You can't move the application. It must remain on the system drive. Move your capture scratch folder to the external FireWire drive and use the reconnect function in the project.
    2. What's the media 16:9 or 4:3?

  • Can't move emails from one account to another, some accts greyed out.

    I am using the iphone 4s and ios 6    I have two gmail accounts and one outlook exchange accout through work.  I used to be able to move messages from 1st gmail to the second or even to the outlook exchange acct just fine.  Now depending on which acct I am starting in, some of the other accts are greyed out and I can't click on them.   What has happened and how can I fix this?  I think this may have been in another thread but I didn't see anything specific or any fixes.
    Thank You

    I have similar problem here which problem began this morning. When attempting to move an image file to a folder (something I've done a kazillion times) an error message pops up:
    The item "*.jpeg" could not be moved because "Raw Images" cannot be modified.
    No amount of changing file permissions makes any difference. Redoing the image with PhotoShop doesn't help. Tried to move an image file I created years ago and get same message. Also changed permissions on destination folder - no effect.
    I can however move the same recalcitrant file to a backup HD or a memory stick without problem. Can also move same file into iPhoto with no problem.
    Ran Applejack utility - no difference.
    Is this a virus or Trojan Horse of some kind??? Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • HT4847 How can I move a back up from an old iPhone out of iCloud but not delete it?

    How can I move a back up from an old iPhone out of icloud and onto my own storage device? I don't want to delete it, I just don't want to keep it in iCloud

    Unfortunately you do not have direct access to iOS backs in iCloud.
    I am not sure what you mean by:
    It's locked with an enterprise (third party code)
    Do you mean it is a corporate device and managed by Mobile Device Management software?
    If so the IT department can reset the passcode.
    Other than that, there is no third party iOS app that can lock the device at that level unless it is jailbroken and then no one here can help you.

  • Can I move all my photo that I can see on iPhoto from my Mac hardrive and put them on an external hard drive and still be able to see them as thumbnails in iPhoto? Thanks! The reason, I need to know if I can do this is b/c I am running out of HD space!sp

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
