Can I use the LAN port out of the network?

I just bought an Express to use with a neighbor. They have a desk top PC and a DSL modem. If we plug the modem into the extreme, can I just plug his PC into the LAN Port without having to configure it to the Extreme (we don't want to create a linked network, we just need the signal to pass through like a router)? Ideally, this is what I want, for them to not have anything to deal with, just me setting up my own laptop and leaving their system be.
Will our computers be linked at all if the wireless aspect of it is only being used for my g4 ibook?

cactus101, Welcome to the discussion area!
You mention Express and Extreme. I'm going to assume that you are connecting the PC to the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).
Yes you can plug the PC into the AEBS's LAN port. The PC will be configured to use Ethernet and DHCP to get an IP address. The PC doesn't won't even know that the AEBS exists. It will only know that a router exists and it is connected via Ethernet.Will our computers be linked at all if the wireless aspect of it is only being used for my g4 ibook?Yes they will be on the same network subnet.

  • Can I use my iPhone 6 out of the box to take photos, before syncing it with my computer?

    I will be receiving a new iPhone 6 at the beginning an upcoming trip and would like to use the great camera on it to take photos. The problem is I won't have my computer with me during this trip. Will I be able to use my iPhone right out of the box to take photos, and when I sync my iPhone for the first time will I risk losing those photos? Thank you for the help.

  • Can i use an air port express on the road when im travelling

    Hi
    I am going away on hoiladays and wondering if my apple air port express will work if i just plug

    It can, but only very slowly since the iPhone power adapter doesn't put out as much current. If you only have room for one adapter, take the iPad adapter.

  • When using an airport extreme to extend a wireless modern, will the lan ports work?

    When using an airport extreme to extend a wireless modern, will the lAN ports work?

    The AirPort Extreme can extend the wireless signal from another Apple wireless router. When it does, the Ethernet ports on the extending AirPort router are enabled.
    Apple's "extend" feature appears to be a proprietary Apple function, so it would be extremely unlikely that an AirPort Extreme...or any other Apple router....could extend a 3rd party router product wirelessly....if that is really what you are asking here.

  • Can I use the LAN port of my Airport Express, which is being used to extend my wi-fi network from my Time Capsule?

    I have a home wi-fi network based on a Time Capsule (3rd Gen.).  I recently added a new "n" Airport Express to extend my wi-fi coverage to areas of my home where the signal has been weak or non-existant.  The setup went very well (Airport Utility 6 on my MacBook Pro running Mtn. Lion) and was extremely simple and trouble free.  Now I am attempting ot plug an ethernet device (internet bridge reciver from a wirelss weather station) into the LAN port.  The weather station instructions say the device should communicate fine plugged directly into my router (not physically available where the device needs to be) OR plugged into a LAN port of an ethernet hub.  My question is then:  with the Airport Express in wi-fi extend mode, is the LAN port available to cable internet devices into the network?

    My question is then:  with the Airport Express in wi-fi extend mode, is the LAN port available to cable internet devices into the network?
    Yes, assuming that the setup went correctly.
    Test by moving your laptop or other computer close to the AirPort Express. Temporarily, turn off the wireless on the laptop and connect it using a spare Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the Express.
    See if you can get an Internet connection. If you can, you know the Express has been configured and is functioning correctly.
    Since the Express is in bridge mode when it "extends" both ports become LAN ports, so if you have a second device that needs an Ethernet connection, connect it to the WAN port as it will work as well.

  • I have an Extreme Gen 5 wirelessly extending a gen 4, Can I use my LAN on the extended extreme?

    I have an Extreme Gen 5 wirelessly extending an extreme gen 4. Can I use my LAN on the extended extreme that is wirelessly extending the other extreme?

    Are the LAN ports enabled to extened internet by default?
    Yes, in fact I do not believe that there is a way to turn them "off", even if you want to.
    However, sometimes users will get the extending device configured to "join a wireless network". The Ethernet port are not enabled in that configuration.
    Try connecting another computer or Ethernet device if you can to verify that things are working.

  • Equium M50 will not recognise the LAN port - error: Network Cable unplugged

    I own a Toshiba Equium M50 and have problems with the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller.
    I used to connect via an 'ADDON' Modem/ADSL Switch and had no problems. I then replaced the ADDON with a 'NETGEAR' DG834G ADSL Modem/Router to gain the wireless port, and since then my machine will not recognise the LAN port. <error: Network Cable unplugged>.
    I know that the cables are OK as I used them with other laptops and had no trouble. I can also plug in a PCI card to connect without any problems. It looks to me as if the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller has a problem with the netgear Modem/Router.
    Anyone out there with a similar experience and some advice/suggestions?
    PLEASE

    Hi
    For me it doesnt show like a LAN card problem but your router is a problem.
    Check the device manager if the LAN card was properly recognized. If there are no yellow exclamation marks so everything is ok!
    You can try to delete the LAN card from the device manager and after new reboot install the LAN driver again.
    The issue has stared after installing or connecting the new Netgear modem router.
    Therefore I would recommend to checking firstly the settings or to update the firmware on this router.

  • Can T420 use 3 display with out a dock.

    Can T420 use 3 displays with out a dock.

    I use T420  4178-BYT with Intel HD Graphic 3000 (no nvidia).

    You have to re-activate it with the original sim card, or one from the same carrier it's locked to (unless it's not locked, then any GSM sim card will do).  The sim card itself doesn't have to be activated, it just has to be the correct one and be inserted.  After that you can use it as an iPod Touch.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3406.

  • Can I use 2 Actiontec FIOS routers in the same house in a single network?

    I currently have my FIOS Actiontec router in the top level of my 2 story house. I want to be able to have a wired ethernet connection to the PS3 and Computer that it is in the basement. Unfortunately, there is no way to route an ethernet cable from the top level to the basement. There are a lot of "outside" Wi-Fi signal that create inteference, so I don't want to use a Wi-Fi connection.
    Can I buy a second Actiontec router and connect it using the Coaxial cable available in the basement to connect the PS3 and Computer via Ethernet cable using the LAN ports in the Actiontec router, while keeping everything in the same network?
    Will I still get 25/25 speeds?
    I bought a Netgear MoCA adapter but the speeds were horrible (10/2) and it didn't work very well.
    The setup would be:
    Top Level:  Actiontec Router connected via Coaxial and connecting 3 computers via Ethernet
    Basement: Second Actiontec router connected via Coaxial conecting the PS3 and another computer via Ethernet.
    Thanks

    MOCA should run at north of 200mbps, so if you are getting much less than that, something is wrong.
    I would try re-seating the coax at the splitters, and possible replacing the coax connectors on the cables, or at least cleaning them up.  Make sure that the splitters in use are bi-directional and good to at least 1 Ghz.
    If the connection to the basement wasn't there when the FiOS service as installed, it might be on an old splitter left over from Cable or Sat days. FiOS places the MOCA signal at frequencies well above those normally used for Cable and Sat service, so splitters left over from those installations may not work acceptably. In addition if the cable going to the basement is from a previous installation, it may not be in the best condition, or especially suitable for FiOS, and you might try replacing it with new cable. Coaxial Cable has a finite life.
    If all else fails, you might consider Powerline Ethernet adapters. These transmit Ethernet over the powerlines in the house, and can usually provide 80mbps or so bandwidth, which is probably more than your FiOS connection is good for. They basically allow you to relocate ports from the router to just about anywhere else in the house where there is an electric outlet.

  • Recently bought airport Extreme and have connected the device to the modem. WIFI works. However when I connect the LAN port to a switch I do not see the LAN printer and my NAS. Which setting do I miss?

    I have installed my Airport Extreme and have conencted it directly to a modem. WIFI works fine. However I do not see my LAN network (printer. NAS,..).
    Analysis:
    Scen#1: When I connect the LAN port of the Airport Extreme to a switch (as input) and connect the other LAN devices also to the switch, those LAN devices do not have access to the internet. Also connecting the iPAD with WIFI to the Airport Extreme I cannot find my LAN printer and other devices.
    Scen#2: When I connect the LAN port of the Airport Extreme to a router X (as input) and connect the router X to the same switch, and the LAN devices to the switch, those LAN devices do have access to the internet. Also connecting the iPAD with WIFI to the router X I can find my LAN printer and other devices in the LAN network.
    Question what has impacted the behaviour of the Airport Extreme, not to detect the devices in the LAN network. Why is the use of a switch directly behind the Airport Extreme not working (no internet access for the other devices and Airport Extreme is not the basis station for the LAN network)?

    Your scenario #1 is a correct configuration and should work. It seems as though your Extreme is not acting as a router as I believe you intend.
    Most likely, you need to reset your modem. Power it down and let it rest for a few moments. Some need longer than others. Then, I recommend you "hard reset" your Extreme (see below) and configure it again, after the modem has been reset. From then on do not change what is connected to your modem without powering it down first.
    Once configured, confirm your Extreme's wireless network works as expected and that your iPad and every other wireless device can load web pages. Then, connect the printer directly to one of the Extreme's LAN ports and confirm that it works as well. After that it should work equally well with a switch between it and the Extreme, as should every other wired device connected to the switch. This assumes your switch is an unmanaged device requiring no specific configuration.
    Scenario #2: Having a router connected downstream of another is not a normal configuration, so don't pursue that as a solution. It will only distract you from determining the problem. If you want to repurpose Router X as another device do so only after everything else is working to your satisfaction.
    To "hard reset" an AirPort Base Station: make sure it's powered up, then press and hold its tiny reset button and keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.

    Well if you want to connect anything with 10g to a 3750X, you're limited to using a module with 10g ports. 
    Other than 10g capability on some module cards, something to note, the module ports, I believe, are supported by larger buffers (including the gig module ports).
    As the others have noted, you can use any port for any purpose.  However, if you connect a server to a 10g port, be aware you might start to see drops on your other host (gig) ports as the server will now be able send faster than the host port can receive data.  To minimize this, you might either disable QoS on the switch (providing maximum buffers to all egress traffic) or you might need to tweak buffer resource settings (the default settings often drop some packets, when there are bursts, of default marked packets).

  • My iPhone 3Gs is stuck in Recovery Mode. My phone has never been jailbroken. What can I do to get it out of the Recovery Mode loop?

    My iPhone 3Gs went into Recovery Mode yesterday when I got home. When I plug it into my computer iTunes opens and gives me this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." I click the "Restore iPhone" button and wait while iTunes reinstalls the software on the iPhone. As soon as the install is done, I get the same message again "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." I'm stuck in a Recovery Mode loop. How do I get out?
    This iPhone has never been jailbroken. After a litte research on line I saw some people got stuck in Recovery Mode after a jailbreak, but this is not the case here. Please help.
