Can I use a WTR54G for satelitte internet access

I am having wildblue satelitte internet installed.the install tech said I could use linksys wireless g to hook up two computers for internet access.I have bought the linksys equipment and was reading on the web site that it wont work with satelitte internet.has anyone done this please help

vickers57,
I've been using wildblue satellite with a WRT54Gv5 for 18 months now. It will operate in the DHCP mode, which is the default. I would reset the WRT54G to factory settings by unplugging the power adapter, hold in reset button on rear, then plug in while you hold for 10 seconds, then release.
Run a standard Ethernet patch cable (straight-thru,not crossover) from wildblue modem to 'Uplink' port on WRT54G, then another standard Ethernet patch cable from your pc to one of the 4 ports on the WRT54G. Set your pc Ethernet port to 'obtain IP automatically'.
Power cycle (remove power plug, wait 10 seconds, then plug in) the wildblue modem, when it's 'up' and the top 2 lights are solid not flashing (power and receive), then power cycle the WRT54G. Lastly, if your pc is win98 or winME then reboot it, otherwise XP should get the new IP address from the router OK without rebooting. If not, reboot your pc.
To view the WRT54G configuration, lauch your browser, type in http://192.168.1.1 in the URL bar and hit 'enter'. The default username is 'default' and the password is 'admin'. Click on the far right on 'Status'. If all is good you should see the wildblue modem's IP address and wildblue's DNS.
Let me know how it goes!

    Yes, but you have to have your phone set up for tethering. Depending on your carrier that might require a special plan.

    As a router or do you want to use the phone signal to provide an Internet connection? If that is what you are attempting to do you are asking about tethering and need to speak to your cell phone provider to get that service turned on. If you actually want the phone to be a router, no it does not have that ability.

    When I use my IPhone 4S to view the Shaw Go Movie Central App when I am at home I only use WiFi which is automatic, I start watching a show and sometimes I will get a message like "you can not use your cellular for video playback" or something close to that. Then I received an email from Telus saying I had used my 3G instead of Wi-Fi  using 75% of my data. How can this happen when I'm on Wi-Fi at home? If it switched to 3G for some reason I should have been disconnected and not just transferred to 3G network using up my data. What is the fix for this??

    It doesn't have to be that complicated, Verizon iPhones come unlocked, just tell VZ you're going on Holiday/Traveling and suspend the service, no need to pay for service if you're not going to be using it. Pick up local SIM cards in the countries of your choosing, pop them in, re-activate iMessage and you're set!
    I recommend getting a SIM card from the Three network in England, they have great EU roaming rates and free like-home roaming in Italy.
    Set your phone's region to match the country you're in, it'll save from some headaches when calling local/international numbers.
    To answer your questions,
    1. If you choose not to have a local SIM card, it is good to keep your phone in Airplane mode to save battery.
    2. Make sure the two iPhones have different names to reduce sync/restore issues.
    3. If husband has an iPhone also, you can chat with iMessage/Facetime, just give him heads up about the new number you'll have. Otherwise, use Whatsapp if he's got an Android. You can activate Whatsapp with your American number or the international number if you choose to get a SIM in Europe.
    Also, Get the MagicJack app and/or Google Hangouts, both of those apps provide you with free calling to the USA and Canada using any internet connection. Google Voice is another good way to SMS across the seas.
    Let me know if you need any more tips for iPhoning across the pond.

    Thanks

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

  • Can I use touch ID for App Store without using a passcode?

    It seems that the ony way I can use the touch ID for App Store and iTunes is if I have a passcode to get into my phone. I don't want a passcode, it get in and out of my phone too often to have to unlock it all the time and I hate manually typing in my password for App I buy. Why can't it do both, isn't the touch ID just as secure for purchases even if you don't have to unlock the phone to get to it??

    From the article:
    You can set up Touch ID in iOS Setup Assistant or by tapping Settings > Touch ID & Passcode. To set up Touch ID, you must first set a passcode. Touch ID is designed to minimize the input of your passcode, but you need a passcode for additional security validation, such as enrolling new fingerprints.
    So yes, that's how it's designed. You must have a passcode, though as long as you understand the caveats:
    In addition, you will need to enter your passcode to unlock your iPhone in these conditions:
    After restarting your iPhone 5s
    When more than 48 hours have elapsed from the last time you unlocked your iPhone 5s
    To enter the Touch ID & Passcode setting
    and
    You can't use Touch ID for purchases if Require Password in Settings > General > Restrictions is set to Immediately.
    you should be able to use Touch ID without needing your passcode. If none of those circumstances is true and you're still being asked for your passcode to make a purchase from the iTunes Store, it would seem that something is amiss with your iPhone.

  • HT3354 how can i use one table for reference to another

    how can i use a table for a referance to another eg when i type a word in a cell, i will like it to match the word with another table then return the information in the cell i am using

    you can use vlookup() (or any of the lookup family of functions) to locate an item based on a key value:
    Here is an example of something you can do with two tables:
    The table on the right is title "Data" and stores a list of names with age and favorite color.
    The table on the left uses the value in the first column to lookup up information in the table Data
    in the table on the left:
    B2=IFERROR(A2&" is " & VLOOKUP(A2, Data :: A:D, 2, 0)&" years old and likes the color "& VLOOKUP(A2, Data :: A:D, 3, 0), "NOT FOUND")
    I know this look complicated.  so I'll break it up into smalled pieces:
    first the "&" is called the concatenate operator and joins two strings.  like this:
    a string is a set of characters between double quotes.
    so "string 1" & "string 2" becomes "string 1string2"  or "Sam " & "Jones" becomes "Sam Jones"
    you can use cell references instead of strings directly in which case the concatenation is performed on the contents of the cells.
    so if cell A1 contains "Hi " and the cell A2 contains "There"  then A1 & A2 will result in "Hi There"
    so you could add the formula
    A3=A1 & A2
    this is short hand for select cell A3 then type everything including the A3 so that A3 contains "=A1 & A2" (omit the double quote)
    OK.  So the formula I provided concatenates several items together:
    it concatenates A2, then the string " is " then a formula, then the string " years old and likes the color " then a formula
    the two formulas (highlighted in blue) perform a lookup of the value in cell A2 in columns A thru D of the table named "Data".  If if finds the value in cell A2 in the first column of the lookup range in the table Data (column A) then it returns the value from the same row but in the second or third column.
    all that is in a function calld iserror() to trap the condition where the calue you enter in A2 does not exist in the table Data:
    You will find the Numbers users guide and function reference helpful.  You can download then from Apple here:

  • How can I use jbo:InputSelect for a char type filed?

    How can I use <jbo:InputSelect for a char type filed?
    I have two tables. One is room (primary key is room(type is char)), another table is responsibility (foreign ker is room(type is char)). Both tables have same length for room column.
    There is a problem:
    If I use (in the "DataEditComponent.jsp" file)
    <jbo:InputSelect multiple="false" datasource="dsEdit" displaydatasource="roomData" displaydataitem="ROOM" displayvaluedataitem="ROOM" ></jbo:InputSelect>
    to get the room input for responsibility from combobox(Datasource roomData is from room table). In the form the room field cannot bind the data in combobox, alway select the first item. And if I select one item and click the update button.There is an error message:
    Error Message: JBO-27010: Attribute set with value H409 for Room in Responsibility has invalid precision/scale
    I found If I changed the field type from char to varchar2 in database also change the entity objects, it works well. I wonder if there are any diffrence using <jbo:InputSelect tag in char and varchar2 type. How can I use <jbo:InputSelect for a char type filed as i don't want to change my datatype in database at this stage.
    I try this in JDeveloper 9.03, 9.034, 9.04. The result is the same.

    If I were in your shoes, here's how I would do it:
    <%-- Assuming you have dsRoom and dsResponsibility --%>
    <%-- Select is an HTML tag --%>
    <select name="ROOM" size="1">
    <% char roomID =""; // Init your character var
    // Open a rowsetIterator to get the records and add them to the LOV
    <jbo:RowsetIterate datasource="dsResponsibility" changecurrentrow="true" >
    <% roomID = (char)dsResponsibility.getRowSet().getCurrentRow().getAttribute("ROOM"); // Grab the char value
    // add the value to the LOV
    %>
    <option value="<%=roomID%>"><%=roomID%></option>
    </jbo:RowsetIterate>
    </select>
    If you are using this as part of an edit page you may want to utilize the "selected" option of the <option> tag. In one instance I am doing this on an edit page because the use may open an existing record. If I don't account for it, then it will change the DB to contain the first value from the list! You can do a simple check like:
    //Set the current record's char
    char curRecord = (char)rowEdit.getAttribute("ROOM");
    // inside the iterate:
    if (curRecord == roomID) {
    <option value="<%=roomID%>" selected><%=roomID%></option>
    } else {
    <option value="<%=roomID%>" ><%=roomID%></option>
    Hope that helps!
