Can only connect 2 Macs at a time to Airport/TC

Just what the title says, I can only connect 2 devices at a time. If I want to connect a third someone needs to get off their Mac.

This happens usually because the TC is in the wrong mode..
Go to the airport utility and check if the TC is in router mode, ie DHCP and NAT.. if not place it in that model and tell me what happens.
You need to give loads more info.
Type of broadband and actual modem / router supplied is a good start.

  • Can only connect one user at a time via VPN?

    Hi, long-term Mac user but new to OS X Server. Dug thru the forums quite a bit but couldn't find an answer to this one - hopefully I wasn't searching with the wrong keywords.
    Installed OS X Server 10.6 on a MacBook (white, 1 generation back) at the office. Sits behind an Airport Extreme, which is connected to Comcast. Other machines at the office are NOT routed through the Server, but rather connect directly to the Airport Extreme for internet access. I've set up server.mydomainname.com to point to our Comcast address, and I am able to connect via VPN to the server without any problems, and access the server using the server.mydomainname.com address which I pointed to my Comcast IP address, as long as I check "Send all traffic over VPN connection" on my client.
    However, when I'm logged in via VPN on one computer, and then log in via VPN on another computer (with the same UID or a different one), the first one loses all connectivity through the VPN - it's as if it had been logged off.
    In Server Admin, under the Settings|Network tabs, I have Computer Name set up as "theserver", and Local Hostname as "theserver" (so I can access via theserver.private). VPN is set up to enable L2TP over IPsec, sharing ranges 10.0.1.200 thru 10.0.1.220; no load balancing, no PPTP. Client DNS servers is set to 10.0.1.29.
    Any ideas as to why I can only connect with one client at a time?

    Thanks. I didn't see anything interesting, but then again I'm not up on VPN details. Here's the scenario:
    First, I logged in as "user1", and I can use the VPN.
    Then, I logged in as "user2", and I can use the VPN with user2, but user1 is no longer able to do anything over the VPN.
    Then I hung up with user2, but user1 still can't see anything over the VPN.
    Then I hung up and reconnected with user1, and user1 can use the VPN again.
    Here's part of the log for this activity. I've replaced potentially identifying info with "XYZ" for safety. Appreciate any thoughts on this!

  • WRT45G: can only connect one pc at the time to internet, cannot login to router setup

    Hello,
    I don't get this. The complete network worked fine for ... years? After a call with the ISP about a general/different issue, we can now only connect one pc at the time to internet. (We were asked to take out cables and we've put them back).
    I've been trying and searching for an answer for hours.
    problem:
    We can only connect through the router to internet with only one pc at the time (the first pc we connect after starting up the router).
    Also we cannot get into the setup menu of the router at 192.168.1.1
    We've been trying to reset the modem for 10, 30 seconds.
    Auto resolve IP/DNS. DHCP is enabled.
    I also remembered that I pushed the SES button, it turned from orange to flashing bluish. I never knew aboutthis function, nor it is mentioned in the manual I downloaded. Now this SES indicator is off.
    Also WLAN and DMZ led are off.
    I downloaded EasyLink_Connect.exe, went through the setup. It recognises there's internet connection, but stops and says: cisco does not support this modem.
    Temp. replacing this WRT45G modem with another one did not resolve the issue.
    I have no clue what went wrong, what we did wrong, and how we can resolve this issue? Please help! Thanks

    2.  I do have another router, when I try that one, the problem we have remains. So that's a bit strange to me. That one is supposed to be working.
    Does this SES function configure anything other than the modem? So, does it alter PC configurations? I have no clue.   We even start to wonder whether the ISP is able to set up their internet in a way that unables us to make use of a router? That would be ridiculous

  • I can only netrestore 1 mac at a time and its slow

    I have created 3 net restore image’s and they work. But when
    I try to image more than one machine it goes to the screen to select the image
    and once selected it goes for awhile and then reboots the mac’s back into the
    hd’s. I am imaging new MBPro’s and Airs with SSD. I have looked thru console
    logs under /var/log/system.log and see no outstanding errors
    I am running standalone thru a switch the mini is acting as
    DHCP (lease 1Day) 192,168,1,10 to 192,168,1,250 (server IP is static 192.168.1.5)
    Imaging works slowly 1-2 hours per machine if I only do 1
    mac at a time.
    Image size is 30g, I know it will take some time but I was excepting
    1 hour tops plus doing more than one mac at a time
    I appreciate all thoughts and guidance
    I am running a mini (Late 2012)
    2.5 i5
    16g memory
    500g HD
    Yosemite 1010.1

    This sounds like a network issue. You might want to try a new switch.
    You should be able to restore multiple clients, and in a matter of 10-15 minutes, over a properly functioning GigE switch.

  • 2 iPads, but can only connect one iPad at a time to my home network.  Is this a known issue with Mac/iPads in general?

    At home I have a HP PC, netbook and Sony laptop with no connection issues.  Last year I bought an iPad 1 for my wife.  This year I bought an iPad 2 for myself.  However, only one iPad can connect to the wifi home network at a time. If I am using the iPad2 then the iPad1 fails to connect to the internet.  if the iPad1 is being used then the iPad2 cannot connect.   I tried resetting iPad network settings for both, reset router, and updated both iPads to latest software/firmware yesterday.  Right now the only iPad that shows any connection is the iPad1.  The iPad2 does not see the home network or any other outside network.  Any suggestions or ideas on how to resolve this?  It is odd the network issues only affect the iPad's.

    @dananova,
    It sounds like you need to either increase the number of dynamic IP addresses your router will hand out or change some of your devices to static IP addresses. 
    Check the router manual on how to change the dynamic IP range of your router.  If you don't have a manual, you can go to Belkin's website and download it.
    To change the IP address of your iPads to static addresses, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and tap the ">" next to the name of your wireless network.  DHCP should be highlighted.  Write down the all the settings on the screen. Next tap the Static button.  Enter the exact same information that you copied from the DHCP screen with the exception of the last 3 digits of the IP address.  Enter a new 3 digit number in this spot.  Generally the original IP address will end with a low number such as 009, so pick a number that is not that low but less than 255.  I would suggest a range of 240 to 250, unless the original IP range falls near this range.  Also make sure you use a different 3 digits for each device you set to use a static IP address.

  • Can only connect 1 computer at a time after changing from DSL to Cable.

    I have 2 laptops using Airport cards, and one Tower connected via ethernet to Airport basestation. With DSL no problem (DSL required PPPoE). With cable I can use internet assistant and restart each device and finally connect, but only one at a time. I'll set up one, then have to reboot everything to set up the next computer and lose the connection with the first. Cable needs to use DHCP it seems.
    To get it to work with the new modem I had to change the base stations configuration from distributing IP addresses to not distributing IP addresses. Methinks this has something to do with my not being able to get more than one computer working at a time.
    Any help would be appreciated. Have to iBooks, and a G4 tower. 2 running OSX10.4.10, and one wtih 10.5.2.

    Figured it out after about an hour talking first with Comcast, then Apple support. AEBS was not acting as router at all, and had been put in bridge mode.
    Easy solution once this was realized was to do hard reset (I thought I was doing this by unplugging the AEBS, but had to actually find and press the hard reset button) which reset all the settings at which point setup was pretty easy. Made sure it was not in bridge mode, did an automatic setup using the Airport utility, and voila. Everything including my new iPod could connect.
    Now if I could only have the 6 hours back that I spent going around in circles in bridge mode.

  • Just updated to Firefox 8, can only connect 1 User at a time, how can I fix this so both users can connect to Firefox at the same time??

    I have just upgraded to Firefox 8. I have 2 user accounts on my computer. Since the upgrade, only 1 user can access Firefox at a time. I am able to use IE on 1 and Firefox on the other. I have to close Firefox on 1 user before I can open it on the 2nd.

    I also have gone back to V 7, which fixed the issue. I have stopped the automatic updates so the issue doesn't hapen again.

  • I got a new time capsule and can only connect 1 device at a time?

    please help

    You have the TC in bridge mode..
    ie on the network tab it says.. off (bridge mode)..
    Change this to dhcp + NAT mode..
    Be aware you might then have more issues.. depending on the setup.. particularly if you have a cable modem you will need to power down the modem for 30min. maybe less.. maybe more.
    More network info helps if that simple bit didn't work.. we cannot work with nothing.. Creation ex nihilo is only for divinity.. for ordinary humans we need something to start from.

  • Can only connect to Internet from one computer at a time on network

    I have a 2 computer network in my office networked with an Asante 10/100 hub. The computers are a iMac 24 (Intel) and an old G4 (PCI). The network has worked fine until just recently. Now, I can only connect to the Internet with one computer at a time...(DSL connection). I checked cables, ports, etc, and I'm wondering if this is a 10.4.9 issue. Coincidentally, I noticed that I am not able to access the Internet via Win XP using Parallels which also worked fine up until recently. I checked with the ISP (AT&T) who confirmed that all is OK on their end. Anyone have similar problem? Could OS X 10.4.9 be the culprit? Any help on this will be much appreciated. Thanks.
    iMac 24   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   2G RAM; NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT 256

    I'd consider that a 3 computer network, Parallels being a virtual machine would alias the ethernet interface and need its own IP address. That may or may not have anything to do with your problem. Actually, the way you've described things, it sounds like a lot has to do with your contract with ATT. Is there a routing device at your end?
    The only way 10.4.9 could be the culprit would be if it were the routing device.

  • Can I connect my Mac to two separate wireless networks at the same time?

    Need some assistance with some advanced wireless networking please....
    Upstairs I have a D-link wireless router connected to the internet and wired to a couple of PCs. Downstairs I have a minimac linked to my hifi via an airport express. I have bought a D-Link DWL-G122 usb wifi dongle.
    So I want the mini mac to connect to the airport express on one wireless network (strong signal) and to be able to connect to the internet on another network (weak signal) via the usb wifi /router.
    But the airport software and the d-link driver seem to conflict and both try to take control of the two wireless devices.
    Is there any way round this to be able to run one mac with two wireless network devices at the same time?
    Thanks

    While those with more experience may be able to correct me, I'm pretty sure that you can only connect to one wireless network at a time with your Mac Mini, unless D-Link provides their own proprietary software that bypasses the computer's Airport settings.
    Using the AirPort hardware you can only connect to a single wireless network at any given time. However in this situation the 2 attempted connections are via USB and AirPort. Therefore this requires nothing special of the AirPort drivers or settings.
    It does require that the Mac OS and applications have the capability to use either network connection (USB or AirPort) depending on what data they are trying to get. In general I understand how it is theoretically possible but I have no idea if you can configure OS X to do it.
    ...I believe one of the options when setting up the Airport Extreme Base Station is that you can extend a wireless network already in place.
    True but the D-Link is not compatible with Apple's WDS therefore this is not possible in this situation.
    If you have a newer Airport Extreme Base Station with a USB port on it...
    FYI, every AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) has a USB port.
    BTW, birky has indicated that he/she is using an AirPort Express (AX) not an AEBS.

    Merry Christmas

    Repartition and format the drive for a Mac:
    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.

  • HT4199 Every time I introduce the WPA2 passwords I can´t connect. I can only connect to open wi fi networks? Does anyone know why? Thanks

    Every time I introduce the WPA2 passwords I can´t connect. I can only connect to open wi fi networks? Does anyone know why? Thanks

    Some users with various Wi-Fi connection problems have reported that they were given the following instructions by Apple Support, sometimes with success. I can't vouch for this procedure myself. After completing the procedure, you'll have to recreate all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make sure you know how to do that before you begin. Taking screenshots of the preference pane may be helpful.
    Step 1
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 2
    Reset the System Management Controller

  • Can only connect to enterprise wifi the first time each day, then does not reconnect and got the "Associati​on Failed" error

    To save battery, I leave my wifi off when the TP's screen is locked.  At home, my TP has no problem reconnecting to wifi after the screen is unlocked.  However, at work, which uses enterprise wifi, I can only connect the first time.  If I lock the screen and then unlock it (causing the wifi to turn off and on again) then the TP will not reconnect and I would get the "Association failed" error over and over again.  If I were to turn the TP off and on again, I would still get the same error.  Here's the strange part, if I come in work the next day, it would be able to connect to the wifi.  If I were to leave the wifi on all the time, it would not disconnect even if I lock the screen.  Now if I were to turn off the wifi and then turn it on again, the TP would not reconnect.  So it seems like the TP can only connect the first time each day....very strange...and frustrating.
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    Scimmia is right.  But you AcousticBruce are still very wrong.  You claim there were no error messages.  Yet after much proding and denial you finally provide small portions of error messages which fully identify the problem and can be found in many other posts in these forums.  Yet still, you haven't actually provided full output - instead you paraphrased the output after a couple of "//" symbols.
    If you don't give us the actual output we can't help - except in this case the error is so common we could very easily help.  So could the wiki page on wpa_supplicant if you had read it, as your problem is explictly listed there in a "NOTE" box.  But more importantly if you are reluctant to give us actual output we will not want to help you.
    This issue would have been solved instantly if you would have provided the actual output instead of lying about it.

  • Can only connect to HTTPS (secure) sites and can't connect to HTTP sites

    In short I CAN ONLY connect to HTTPS sites, meaning secure.
    I've narrowed this down to an issue regrading my mac book pro and the wireless router.
    Router:
    - not sure of the make model
    - other computers CAN connect to this router and go online
    My Mac:
    - Mac Book Pro
    - OS X 10.6
    - I can connect to other wireless networks just fine
    - I can surf the web for about 10 minutes or so then it blocks ALL http traffic
    and i'm only allowed to https sites
    going to a http site results in a "page is taking to long to respond"
    please anything?

    The router is a Verizon MI424WR
    hope that helps, but i doubt it will...
    just to also clairfy http sites either go really slow then time out only never to come back, https are blazing fast

  • Can only print one item at a time

    Hey everyone,
    Bit of a Photoshop novice here, use it for DVD covers and labels. I have been using CS3 previously but upgraded to CS5.5 last year. The thing is on CS5.5 I can only print one page at a time even when I input say 20 copies to be printed, only one will print. That goes for the regular printer for printing covers and the disc printer.
    I can open CS3 up and right away it will print however many I ask it to.
    Is there something I am missing? Something so painfully obvious that it is staring me in the face but I am just not seeing it?
    Thanks in advance!

    It isn't a printer setting. I have 3 different printers connected to my system and all of them worked with CS3 fine. And when I delete the preferences folder for CS5.1 it works as it should but only once, then afterwards it only prints one copy, no matter how many I ask it to print!
    So if it works when the preferences have been removed, then fails to work afterwards, how can that be a printer setting?
    I have read elsewhere that others have had similar issues with CS5 and Windows 7.
