Can my iBook G4 work on Wireless A Access Point?

Is there anyway, aftermarket, via USB add on or something else that I can use to modify my iBook G4 to make it work on a Wireless A band network?
Can't find anything about this on the internet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can cisco MSE(mobility service engine) configured to work with non-cisco access points?

I understand that access points can be configured to forwards all the probe requests to cisco wifi controller. cisco MSE(mobility service engine) gets the probes from wifi controller to find the location of the mobile devices.
My question, can cisco MSE(mobility service engine) be configured to work with non-cisco access points?

No and the reason why is the NMSP communication from the MSE to the WLC. Other vendors don't support this so there is no communication happening.

E1000 works behind E3500 as access point but not behind Airlink AR675W and ideas?

In my own home just testing my E1000 works fine as an access point with an E3500 as primary router using Linksys
method 1 (lan-lan connection) with E1000 IP reset to 192.168.1.2 and DHCP off and with
method 2 (lan-wan) with E1000 IP reset to 192.168.2.1 and DHCP On and different wireless SSID.
In my daughters building where I need it, I cannot get the E1000 to work as an access point. The primary router is an Airlink AR675W with ip 192.168.0.1 (255.255.255.0) delivering addresses 100 to 150.
When i try the E1000 in either method I get no internet connection on devices connected hardwired or wirelessly to the E1000. Before each setup I used the reset button and the factory defaults tab
method1 (lan-lan) I set the E1000 to IP 192.168.0.2 to be different than the Airlink and DHCP off.
method2 (lan-wan) with E1000 IP reset to 192.168.2.1 and DHCP On and different wireless SSID.
Are there any ideas why I cannot connect to the internet in this way behind the Airlink primary router

ok - i will read up on the airlink - it is a landlord situation but he will probably let me do a few things to it.
Also I see the Airlink admin IP default is 192.168.2.1 and not 192.168.0.1 like I thought so that might make a difference.
I don't know what flash DD-WRT means. Its a 10 minute drive to the other house. The internet provider is SHAW cable and I do not know the modem but it is probably Motorola SB5100 or SB5102 wired modem. The problem is it is a large house with concrete walls & floors & double pane windows so the wireless signal downstairs is weak. ethernet cables are probably ok but I'll take some more with me. The ethernet jack downstairs definately works as I can connect a single PC to it.

Setting up wireless Cisco Access Points independently and network layout

Hello,
I am technician in a school. I have been asked to upgrade wireless system in school. Currently I am using VDSL2 30Mbps line. I am using E4200 Router, which is providing internet services. The school has 3 floors. On one floor I have this router which is further attached with 16 port gigabit unmanageable switch. The same router is providing wireless service on the same floor using Class C ip address. From the switch I have extended a cable and took it on to another (second floor), where I have got one more gigabit switch. From that switch I have connected one router using different subnet and further i have attached two access points for the entire floor, which is working ok. From the same switch I have extended one more cable up to third floor where I have connected one more access point. So, 3 access points on three floors, 2 switches and two router. This is the current network layout.
Now school have decided to go over to fiber. ISP is going to put Juniper router and going to create vlan and will configure access restrictions. School will have 100Mbps unlimited up and download speed. Its because of increase in number of students. School is still waiting for the router and configuration to be done.
I have got 4 cisco 1602i access points (AIR-SAP1602I-Z-K9). These access points are POE supported. I have got one 8 port POE switch also. When I got these 4 cisco I didnt get power adapters with them. First I want to ask, is this normal. Don't they usually come with power adapter. I know they are POE, but cisco doesn't send them with power adapters.
Second I want to ask, if these access points can work independent without WLAN controller. Or do i have to have WLAN controller.
As fiber is not up yet so, for the time being I have connected these access points with POE switch using Cat5E cable and then further connected the POE switch with normal gigabit switch, which is further conneted with router at this point.
Please tell me if I am doing it correctely. I will also be needing help with the configuration.
Can anyone tell me how to setup these access points independently for current situation to provide internet access. How to set them on different channels etc......
Also want to know if there is any software that can detect access points and can help me manage these access points.
I shall be thankful.

Hi, My name is Eric Moyers. I am a Network Support Engineer in the Cisco Small Business Support Center. Thank you for using the Cisco Community Post Forums.
Under Wireless/Security how do you have the Wireless Isolation configured?
Wireless Isolation (within SSID) should be disabled to allow wireless computers associated to the same SSID to see and transfer files between each other

WAP2000 Wireless-G Access Point (Setup Help)

Hi,
We have a wireless-g access point typically (and previously, in this case) used for a small business. We were given the device for free and wanted to reset the device to use as our wireless router at home. First and foremost, can a wireless access point double as a home wireless router? I was told that only one computer/laptop at a time can connect to a wireless access point, unlike a wireless router which allows multiple devices to connect to a wireless home network at a time? Is this true?
Second, because the device is not new, we no longer have the setup instructions. Upon resetting the device (holding down the reset button for 10 or more seconds), we were unable to access the WAP2000 online setup page for a username and password. The device is being picked up by our macbooks and shows up in the Airport as "linksys-g." However, we are unable to access the setup page or communicate with the access point. We have tried typing http://198.162.1.1/ in our address bar, but have had no luck.
Do you have any suggestions as to how to set up the device? Also, can this device double as a router that will allow multiple laptops and devices (i.e. sony playstation) to access and use the wireless network simultaneously.
Thank you for your help.

Sam,
First yes you won't to factory reset the unit. You should hold down the reset button longer than 30 seconds and no longer than 45.Once this is back to factory default, the current ip address should be 192.168.1.245 , you will need to statically assign your pc an address in 192.168.1.1 /24 range and make sure you are plugged directly into WAP2000. Now you should be able to access the AP. Default username = admin password = admin
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/csbap/wap2000/quick_start/guide/WAP2000_Quick_Start_Guide.pdf
Above is a quick start guide for reference.
Now just configure accordingly.
Thanks,

Can't HP Officejet pro 8100 do wifi access point?

Yesterday my HP Officejet pro 8100 arrived and I try to connect via wifi. I thinked that It need a infrastructure access point to print via wifi.
When I powered on the printer I osserved that It create an access point autonomously with SSID: HP-Setup-7A-Officejet Pro, with IPv4 address server, etc...
I was very happy and I printed a page with my smartphone samsung s4 connected directly with printer access point (not wifi direct but standard wifi).
Today no changed occurred but I can't use printer with its own access point, but only with an external wifi access point.
Someone can help me, please? It could be an hardware problem?
Thanks,
Luca
P.S. in web server I checked that "access point connectivity" (Punto di accesso wireless connettività in Italian) is checked.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello lucait
To print via WiFi you need to have a wireless router setup. Once you have the wireless router setup correctly you will have a SSID and Wepkey that will enable you to add devices to your network. The network will allow all your devices to communicate not just with each other but with the internet. At the moment your printer was not put in a network so instead of broadcasting on a network it is broadcasting on it's own network called HP-Setup-7A-Officejet Pro which is only good for a short period of time to allow you to setup your wireless. I am going to assume you have a wireless network and you are just needing assistance getting the printer setup on that network.
To set your printer up on a network you will need to reset your network defaults so your printer begins to broadcast that HP-Setup-7A-Officejet Pro network again. You can do this buy following the steps on the HP Support document Resetting the Network Settings. Once you have done this you can begin to install the software that came with your printer on your computer. You want to set the printer up wirelessly when the option arrives. The software should configure your printers wireless for you and put it on the network. Once completed you should be able to access your printer from all your devices as long as they are on the network.
I hope this helps resolve your wireless issue. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Setting up a netgear n300 as wireless bridge/access point with airport extremee

I just replaced my netgear wireless router with the airport to allow our many devices on the network without knocking each other off and also increase the speed. But would like to use the netgear as a wireless bridge or access point so that I can still connect my NTFS formatted hard drive to be shared on the network. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I can not seem to find my netgear router with 192.168.1.1 as that comes up with another device. I have tried doing this with a windows laptop in another room but can not seem to make it work. I am now hooked up directly to the airport thinking i need to do it that way and still no luck. Please help.

As long as you intend to do this over ethernet it will work.. you cannot easily wireless repeat or bridge to an apple router.. you would need specific hardware to do it.
What is the exact model of netgear you have?
The setup method depends on the functionality of the router.. but lets assume it does not have a bridge or WAP mode.
You use WAN bypass.
1. Setup the Netgear with IP address in the correct IP range for the rest of the network.. it is hard to talk generalities so lets say the apple is main router and your network is now 10.0.1.x .. then set the Netgear to 10.0.1.250 (apple uses IP 2-200 by default) you can use any value you like outside the DHCP range. Up to the limit which is 254 as long as you keep track of all static IP devices. Apply this setting and power cycle the router.. and you might need to power cycle the computer as well to pick up the new IP.
2. Turn off the DHCP server in the Netgear. You may lose connection to the netgear now.. do not worry about it.. (this can be combined with one.. if you firstly turn off dhcp before you change the IP.. but whatever is possible.. at some point you will need to change around and if you forget what IP .. you will be in a mess.. so write it on a label and stick on the base of the router.. also without dhcp you will either need to reset router to factory using reset button or use static ip on the computer. )
3. Plug ethernet from LAN of the main router to LAN of the Netgear. Reboot the whole network is often necessary.
4. In your computer plugged somewhere in the network.. open browser and go to the address you set.. 10.0.1.250 in my example.
5. You can then setup the Netgear to do whatever you like.. DIsk access is fine.. wireless is fine.. it just cannot be a router.
Many many reboots if you get lost. Hit reset and start over.

Can't connect to WiFi at home (DLink Access Point)

Only had my iPhone for a few days now. I am trying to connect to my wifi network at home but it is just not working. I have a DLink wireless access point and have no problems connecting to it with my laptop. iPhone sees the network allows me to enter site password, but then just switches back to Edge. It doesn't seem that DHCP is setting the correct network settings on the iPhone. Any advice for troubleshooting? I see no errors, nothing to go on.

wahiggins3,
First, make sure you have the latest firmware installed for your D-Link. Many routers, and D-Link is not alone in this, don't always provide information via DHCP using the accepted standards for DHCP. Any updates that mention digital devices or gaming consoles usually address that issue.
Second, what security are you using on the router? Are you using MAC or hardware address filtering?
Personally when entering my password for the wireless network at my in-laws I had to slow down and remember that the letter that will be typed will pop up if you hold your finger on the screen. If it is incorrect you can slide your finger to the correct one, and then lift it off the screen.
Hope this helps,

Linksys router ezxs55w and wireless g access point

My laptop has suddenly stopped seeing my wireless connection. I can see the ones that belong to the neighbors, but not mine. Have rebooted computers, reset access point (even bought a new one but nothing changed) unplugged, etc to no avail. HELP! Do I need a new router? The led lights are green for link/act and 100, orange for full/col. The connection has worked with no problems for close to a year. Thank You

Whats the Model number of the Access Point? When you search for the Wireless Networks on your computers are you able to locate (linksys) under the wireless networks?
EZXS55W is a Swtich. So you have connected the Access point to the Switch? and where the switch is connected, is it connected to the Router or to the Modem? Who is your ISP.

How to detect a Wireless Internet access point (Legally)

When I am using my new Macbook Pro at a hotel that has an open and free wireless network, what do I do to note that it is there? What do I bring up to be able connect to it?
I was just at a hospital that friends (there) told me had open and free local wireless access but I could find nothing from the Airport icon/window.
Normally, at home, I am connecting through my Airport Extreme which, in turn, is connected to the DSL Router. Once I leave home, that icon, on the batr at the top of the screen, is greyed out.
MacBook Pro 2.16 dual-core Mac OS X (10.4.7) Airport Extreme

Frobozz,
You can control (somewhat) the behavior of wireless connectivity through the Network preference pane (in System Preferences), under Airport. In general, with the default settings, the computer will keep track of all of the networks that you connect to and will re-connect to these automatically. When an unknown open network is available, the computer should ask if you want to join it.
If you know that you are in the vicinity of an open wireless network, select the Airport (antenna) icon in the menu bar and the name of the network should be selectable. If there is nothing showing then perhaps the airport card is turned off or needs to be coaxed back to life by re-booting. If you want another method of checking for wireless networks you could download a widget such as Airport Radar from <http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/>.

AirPlay not working with Wi-Fi access point

Got home network, everithing worked fine including AirPlay. Decided to switch off radio on main router and place an access point to boost wi-fi signal. Model - Dlink DAP-1350. All works fine, much better coverage, BUT NO AirPlay. At all. Not a songle player is seen from wireless devices. Remove access point, turn back radio on main router - all works again.
Btw with access point on wired devices see all AirPlay speakers just fine, only wired are not working at all.
Any ideas where to look for a fix?

Correct, you will need a BlackBerry Data Plan from your carrier for the BlackBerry functions and features.
Some third party applications like Opera Mini will work, and as well, your Hotspot browser will work with the WiFi.
You must have the Data Plan, in order to get the RIM push email functions you are looking for, as well as addtional BlackBerry data services such as the internet browser, Facebook for BlackBerry, BlackBerry Messenger, and much more.
So, call your carrier and inquire about having the BlackBerry Data Plan added to your account.
Good luck.

Wireless-G Access Point HELP!

Ok, I currently am running my office with highspeed internet. I have the Internet running into the Router and than into the Wireless Access Point. BUT!, I have 2 intruders! Possibly slowing down my internet speed. I need to know how to setup a password protected lock on the wireless networking!
Thanks,
Ryan
NOTE: I did misplace my installation disc for the Access Point!

simple... you just need to open up the set-up page of the access point. by default the IP adress of your access point is 192.168.1.245
to secure the wireless router, follow these steps: (do it on a hard-wired computer)
open a web browser, type in http://192.168.1.245
username: blank, password: admin
go to wireless tab, change SSID, set channel to 11, then save settings
go to wireless security subtab, enable it, then select a security mode, example WEP 64 bit. in the key 1, type in a 10 digit characters (0-9 , a-f), then save the settings
to connect to a secured wireless network
right click on your wireless network connection icon (commonly a single computer icon, found at the bottom system tray where the clock is located at)
view available wireless network, if the network name(SSID) shows up, connect to it, then type in the exact key. confirm it then connect. once connected, try to go online. and that's it

I have a Netgear WNR2000 router and an Edimax EW-7438RPn wifi range extender. I have gotten the range extender to work well with my MacBook Air, however, while my iPhone 3Gs and iPad mini can pick up the wireless signal from the range extender, they cannot get to the Internet through it. No IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, or DNS appear in the details on either the iPhone or the iPad mini. How do I get the iPhone and the iPad to connect to the Internet. It seems that the problem is with the iPhone and iPad, since the MacBook Air works just fine with this set up.

Junglemania,
Go into the setup page of the EW-7438RPn. Go to Wireless Advanced Settings. There is a WMM settings. Make sure the WMM is enabled.
This may help you out.
