Can I set 1 laptop wireless connect with static IP to WRT610N?

I have a WRT610N with 3 PCs wired and various wireless devices accessing.  1 of the wireless devices, running Windows 7, needs to run a static IP.  Do/Can I set this up in the router or do I need to do in the PC?

You can use DHCP reservation in the router to assign a fixed IP address to the PC.
Or you can set the static IP address on the PC directly.

  • Can't set up wireless connection for HP C4385 All-In-One with Windows 7.

    Hi guys,
    I just got a new laptop with Windows 7 64 bit. I already had an HP C4385 All-In-One that I was using with my last computer. I have also just set up a new wireless network because I got a new cable provider. So basically I needed to do everything from the beginning.
    When I inserted the setup CD and ran the setup program, it said I couldn't continue because my OS was not supported. I went to the HP website and found the solution, which was to plug the printer in via USB and let Windows Update find the latest driver. Ok, that's fine, the printer works now when the USB cord is plugged in.
    To set up the wireless connection, the instruction manual says I need to do it through the network setup wizard p on the CD. But that brings me back to my original problem-- the setup CD won't work because it doesn't recognise Windows 7.
    So my question is-- how can I update the network settings (SSID and key) on the printer without the network setup wizard?
    Thanks for any help, this is really driving me crazy!

  • How to use both wired and wireless connection with static addresses

    Now that I have setup my home network with static addresses (router, mini1, mini2 and PC) in the way I want, (big thanks to BDAqua http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1271635&tstart=0) I would like to understand some more advanced network concepts.
    I would like to change the network so that I use both the wireless connection and the built-in ethernet connection at the same time in my Mac mini1. I would like to connect my PC to my Mac mini by using the wired ethernet connection so that I reach the Internet from my PC as well. I would also like to be in control of all the addresses therefore I want to assign the addresses manually.
    The question: What addresses should I use between mini1 and PC? Should I use the same wireless address space as I already use between the wireless router and the other computers (router: 192.168.1.1, mini1: 192.168.1.101, mini2: 192.168.1.103) or should I use something totally different like 10.X.X.X? What should I put in ethernet connection "Router"-field, the same as in Airport (192.168.1.1)? What about DNS, same as in Airport?

    If I understand this correctly, you wish your Mini to perform Internet Sharing for your PC, correct!?
    If so you'll pretty much have to let the Mini handle DHCP & NAT on the Ethernet port. You also want to be sure Airport is dragged to the top of Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations, that's what position the Mini will use 1st for Internet itself.
    On the Mini turn on both Web Sharing & Internet Sharing. The PC once connected will have the Mini's Ethernet IP as it's Gateway addy.

  • New itouch user here, We had a wireless connection with a password all set up but we couldn't remember the password meanwhile there are other connections around us but locked. So i decided to make a new one yet it still will not allow to go on safari HELP

    new itouch user here, We had a wireless connection with a password all set up but we couldn't remember the password meanwhile there are other connections around us but locked. So i decided to make a new one yet it still will not allow to go on safari after i type in the password PLEASE HELP ive turned on and off etc

    My guess is that the security settings on your router and iPod do not match.
    For a test, change your router so there is no security.  See if you can connect and get to the Internet. If that works, set up the router with security and use the same settings for the iPod.

  • Help setting up wireless network with Verizon DSL

    I bought a MacBook Pro and an Air Port Extreme yesterday. I have an iMAC G5 from October 2004. I have Verizon DSL service and a Westell Series 6100 modem.
    Bottom line --> I can't get the wireless connection to work.
    I have successfully used a wired dsl connection with my iMAC G5. But, I tried to just disconnect the ethernet cable from my computer and put it into the Airport Extreme and that didn't work. I used the utility to set up the base station and the network, but I'm not sure if I did it properly.
    I know a PPPoE is involved but I'm not sure of how to configure the system properly. I'm also not sure if the problem is with the configuration of the AirPort extreme or with my Verizon modem.
    All I know is that I want to see a green light on that thing and not a flashing orange one.
    Does any one have some instructions for setting up your AirPort Extreme using Verizon DSL? Has anyone else had similar problems? Thanks in advance!
    MacBook Pro & iMAC G%   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Just finished solving this problem. I am not a strong tech guy, but I know that since it works for others it is just a question of poking and pushing. Anyway it was nine hours in the making...
    My snow airport working with an airport express had been bullet proof with verizon dsl for a couple of years. I wanted to upgrade since I am now Intel mac and hit the blinking amber light.
    I am only going to be able to give the big picture... The AEBS found and worked with all my computers from the beginning, so the problem became that the default IP Address and Subnet Mask were wrong and never automatically adjusted by the assistants.
    Take your working plug-in ethernet connections or the working snow connections from the Airport Utility Internet Connect page. I used the manual configure process to access the info screens.
    I copied all the numbers down, but I believe you only have to insert the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router Address and DNS servers. I put "dsl.verizon.net" in the domain search box.
    Go up to the IPv4 pull down menu and select manual and put in the numbers you copied. Then click Update. When the software returns control, the AEBS will still be orange.
    Toggle the IPv4 to "using DHCP" Click Update.
    This should bring the green light.
    I think I then updated the Network Preference Pane, probably had to manually put in my wireless password again. Browser and mail program worked.
    I think that was all. I may have had to repeat the toggle to make it stick, but I am operational for the last several hours, including the airport express, a G4 laptop and a Sony PC.
    Hope this helps.

  • Best way to set up wireless Internet with my situation?

    Hello All,
    I am looking for a little help. I have a PBG4 and a new imac. I would like them both to have a wireless internet connection. Reason being is that there is no phone line/cable Internet connection in the room the imac is in. The cable internet comes into the living room where i often use my PBG4.
    Is there a way to set up my internet connection, so that the internet cable enters a router and both computers can access the wireless connection with no cabled attached. A USB printer port would be nice also. On paper it looks like the Airport Express can do this. Is this correct? Or am I missing something. I like the fact that is has the music/audio jack is well. While shopping for routers it looks like a lot of them need a home computer to be hard wired into them.
    What would my best option be?
    Thank you for your time in advance. Sorry about my lack of tech knowledge.

    Yes, an Airport Express would meet your needs.
    Or am I missing something.
    No you're not.

    They can have a computer hard wired in, but for all routers it is not essential.

  • [SOLVED] Unable to set up wireless connection (wiki read)

    Well, as you can see that's my 1st post. That's why I want, at first, congratulate the community for the amazing wiki and forums. It helped so much.
    But I'm writing here because I have a problem that I'm unable to resolve with the wiki: The wireless connection. It doesn't work.
    Now I will post my hardware and some software:
    ASUS Eeepc 1000
    01:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT2860 (as # lspci | grep -i net says)
    03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 Gigabit or Faster Ethernet (rev b0) (as # lspci | grep -i net says)
    Linux Kernel 3.2.4-1-ARCH (as # uname -r says)
    I3 window manager
    wireless_tools and wpa_supplicant installed
    (If you want to know something more, ask me)
    The wireless is enabled in the BIOS and the led indicator is on.
    Being the network controller RT2860, must I do something special? I tried to blacklist what the wiki says with no results.
    I have no problems with wired connection, but I can't set up my wireless connection with the # ip link set wlan0 up command (and yes, I execute this command as su or with sudo). I3 corroborates it in the status bar: W: down.
    # ip link list
    1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    ( I had it disconnected when I did this check)2: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether 00:22:15:08:af:e2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    3: wlan0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN qlen 1000 link/ether 00:15:af:ba:39:b8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    I tried a lot of thing, but no results at all. Must I configure manually some file like wpa_supplicant.conf, rc.conf or others? It is normal that in rc.conf, NETWORKING tab, the only interface is  eth0 (interface=eth0) with no other references to wlan0?
    Thanks for your attention.

    That thing on the wiki about blacklisting is probably outdated, it's from the times the kernel had two Ralink drivers. Now there's only one, and you should not blacklist anything.
    rc.conf is only for wired interfaces. For wireless you can do stuff manually, or use a manager - netcfg, wicd, networkmanager.
    And that's that. For further help, you'll have to provide details about which commands you used and what their output is.

  • Set Up Airport Extreme with Static IPs and DHCP same time

    I have Verizon Fios to my Business with 5 Static IP Address. One of them must be assigned to the Airport Extreme Base Station. I have 5 iMacs needing internet connection of which 2 need to use a static ip,( Filemaker Server and my Mac OS X Web Server). I also use 2 iPhones with a custom App accessing that FileMaker Server via the internet too. I want to set up my Airport Extreme Base Station to have those 2 iMacs connected with static ips , which must NEVER CHANGE, via an ethernet cable and all the rest wireless with WiFi. Do to the size of my building I also want another Airport Extreme or Express to just expand the range from the Base Station for the wireless connections only. Looking at the Airport Internet Settings I only see 3 options for Connection Sharing, "Share A Public IP Address", "Distribute a range of IP addresses", "Off (Bridge Mode)". I'm thinking I need to give 1 IP Address to the Base Station, 2 ip addresses to my servers, then 1 ip address to share for my wireless DHCP connections. The additional Airport set to Off(Bridge Mode) to expand the base station. Please advise on how I would set up that base station to do this.

    With respect to expanding the base stations range, in the Base stations Wireless Settings I would click to select "Allow this network to be extendeded". Then what settings would I need in the Additional Airport?
    Note: Both AirPorts would have to be 802.11n models in order for this to work. The additional AirPort would need to be configured to extend the Extreme. (ref: AirPort Utility > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless > Wireless Mode = Extend a wireless network)
    Would that NEED to be connected to the base station via ethernet cable or will it pick up the base station wirelessly?
    Using the "extend" feature is intended to expand the wireless range of an AirPort with another wirelessly. You would not need to connect them by Ethernet. In this configuration, the additional AirPort would be in bridge mode and will pass through the IP information from the other base station's DHCP service.

  • Can I extend my wireless network with my old Airport?

    Can I extend my wireless network with my old Airport? I have the airport extreme 802.11n & my old Airport (translucent white) base station. Can I mix the two to expand my range?

    No problem; ask as many questions as you need to.
    How do I reconfigure the Snow as a bridge to allow the AEBSn to continue to provide both NAT & DHCP services for the entire network?
    I don't have a Snow to verify this, but it should be similar to the later base stations when using the AirPort Admin Utility.
    To set up the Snow base station as a bridge, either connect to the Snow's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the Snow, and then, using the AirPort Admin Utility (located in the \Applications\Utilities folder), make these settings:
    Network tab
    o Distribute IP addresses (unchecked)
    o Apply the new setting.

  • I have a mid-2010 iMac and just purchased a 2TB TC, can't join existing wireless network with AC standard so attached to iMac via ethernet with TC wifi turned off.  How do i access TC now? not showing up in disk utility or on desktop. working fine with TM

    I have a mid-2010 iMac and just purchased a 2TB TC, I just found out that it can't join existing wireless network with new AC standard so attached to iMac via ethernet with TC's wifi turned off.  How do i access TC now? not showing up in disk utility or on desktop. It is working fine with TM.  My cheeper seagate drives etc kept crashing, so i didnt trust cheeper back up options anymore.  Connected those drives to TM via firewire and could see the drives and access them.
    Also, I didn't want to bridge TC with my new fios router that I paid 100 dollars for, to get N speed and also paying 10 dollars more a month for fast speed.  I heard that bridging slows down everything and then there can be port issues with mail etc.  I connect to the internet via airport only and it is pretty fast. Getting over 50mbs downloads and over 30mbs uploads.  Plus everything in my home it connected to my fios router, airport express for music streaming, two apple tvs, vuezone camer system.  I really didn't want to monkey around too much with my system.  But are there other options to connect the new TC.  Can't find info anywhere for this and called apple who gave me the info above.  after hanging up, i see that i cant access my TC and I am wondering if i would have to reset it to turn wifi on again to make changes to the drive, turn off blinking light  or repair it in disk utility if it should become corrupted.
    For other with similar issues i did solve some other problems: when i connected it to my ethernet port on my iMac wifi stopped working.  Found that I had to turn off the ethernet in the system>network screen, but then TM didn't see the TC so i restarted after changes and then it saw it.
    Now a rant.  I can't believe in this wireless age that Apple would make a product that cant join a wireless net work.  The apple rep said i could return it and look for the previous TC that would join an existing wireless network.  Are we going backwards?
    Thanks!

    Ok... it is getting a bit clearer but there are still some questions.
    I connect to the internet via airport only and it is pretty fast.
    I was assuming airport in this statement in your first post meant the TC or the Express.. but I now realise we are still in the mass confusion stage where apple calls everything wireless an airport. So what you mean is the airport internal card of the computer??
    Also, I didn't want to bridge TC with my new fios router that I paid 100 dollars for, to get N speed and also paying 10 dollars more a month for fast speed.  I heard that bridging slows down everything and then there can be port issues with mail etc.
    I think this is mistaken.
    Putting the TC in bridge mode plugged into your FIOS will not slow the network.. nor will it cause mail or port issues.. in bridge the TC is just a fancy WAP and switch plus the network hard drive.
    If the computer is close it will be faster than the FIOS.
    You can run both wireless networks with different names.. so it is clear which is which. But you can also setup roaming so the computers themselves pick which is the best wireless.
    I tried extending the wireless net work and tried joining wireless network, but the TC kept crashing and I had to keep resetting the TC.  the Apple support person said these, extend wireless network and joint wireless network, are no longer a connection option with the new TC because of the new AC protocol.
    Thanks again!
    You cannot extend to a non-apple wireless router.
    You cannot use join a wireless network because when you do the ethernet ports will be cut off.
    But that has not changed.. I don't think Apple support is correct.. there has been no change with the AC model.. it is simply a fact that apple routers do not work in join wireless mode other than as a dumb client. The same applies to AC as to the earlier version.. but I have asked another person to check this.
    Join in the express is the only apple router that still allows an ethernet connection.
    For now you best use of the TC is bridged to the FIOS. Wireless you can sort out between several options.

    Did you solve your printer connection problem?  I have the same issue.  When I first turn the system on, it is connected.  But after a short time (a few minutes?) it loses connection between Mac and printer, even tho both are connected to my WIFI.  I have to turn the printer and and off to reconnect it to the Mac.  Very frustrating.  I have checked Netgear, Printer and Mac settings and can't find any explanation.

  • Zyxel pk500z router/wireless modem loses wireless connectivity with imac

    My iMac loses wireless connectivity with wirelss internet from my Qwest  ZyXel PK5000Z modem/router intermittently. Have to constantly reboot the router to allow my Imac and other Mac notebooks nto reconnect to wireless internet connection.

    Suggest that you take one or more of Mac laptops down to the coffee place and connect there to check  your performance. If you get a good connection there....as I suspect you will...you know the Macs are functioning correctly.
    If the Macs perform well at the coffee place, you need to contact the ZyXel support folks for ideas on why the PK5000Z device is requiring constant restarts.
    As you might imagine....on an Apple support forum, we are not going to be able to provide much help with a ZyXel product.
