Can't connect to Internet and 192.168.1 network at the same time

I have been having an issue with my MacBook's networking for the past 4 months. Here are the specifics:
*My MacBook is connected to the Internet via a linux router, with an address in the 192.168.1.x address space. DNS server is an openDns server, 208.67.222.222
*My MacBook is assigned an IP Address manually in the 192.168.1.x namespace
*I have a printer manually assigned an address in the 192.168.1.x namespace
Problem:
* I can only connect to my printer if I leave my DNS server entry blank under my Airport TCP/IP configuration
* I can only connect to the Internet when my DNS server entry to set to the openDNS server entry.
Question:
Is there any way I can connect to both my local network printer and the Internet at the same time? I have set up two locations that I can switch between, but I would prefer to be able to access both networks at once.

I tried turning AppleTalk on, but no luck.
It seems that the problem is related to basic TCP/IP connectivity. For example, when my DNS server is set to blank, I get a fine response from the command "ping 192.168.1.253". However, when my DNS is set to one of the openDNS servers, I get this error:
PING 192.168.1.253 (192.168.1.253): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: sendto: Host is down

DSL Internet and Firewire Windows network at the same time?

I've got DSL internet via ethernet port on my Macbook and Firewire network with Windows, but it seems they can't work at the same time. If I turn DSL on first than firewire won't work and vice-versa. My guess that's because of the way MacOS X choose which port to use as Windows Sharing. Is there any way to choose manually which port to use?

I'll try to explain this problem as full as possible.
I've got DSL modem which is connected to Macbook via Ethernet port and Macbook is the only thing connected to modem. Then I've got Windows XP machine which work as storage. It doesn't have internet connection and I don't want to share my internet connection from Macbook with it. The only thing I want is File Sharing. Everything work fine if only Ethernet or Firewire plugged. The problem is they can't work together. If drag Built-in Ethernet to top then Mac tries to connect to Internet via Ethernet and it tries to do File sharing via Ethernet too. As the result Internet is working and file sharing is not (it sets ip address of file sharing to Ethernet's ip address). If I drag Built-in FireWire to top then Mac tries to connect to Internet via Firewire and it tries to do File sharing via FireWire too. As the result Internet is not working and file sharing is working (it sets ip address of Internet to FireWire's ip address). I think when Mac starts searching for networks according to Network Port configuration list it found first network and stops searching and network that I set on top is working and another is not. Maybe Mac can be only at one network at the same time? That's why I asked is there any way to set ports for Internet and File Sharing manually?

Can I connect an iMac AND a MacBook Pro at the same time on icloud ?

I arrived without a problem connecting my MacBook Pro icloud but I can not open a session with my iMac when I get the Apple ID and my password and he said "The login is currently impossible.Try reconnecting" and below the two boxes there writes : "Apple ID or password not recognized". I do not understand why, while on the same iMac I connect without problem on www.icloud.com

After 1 or 2 reboot system I managed was enter my MacBook Pro my AppleID and it is connected I managed so to have the flow of "Stream Photo" from my iPhone 4 S to my iPad 2 on the MacBook. But incomprehensible how the function "find my Mac" not recognize the MacBook Pro in "iCloud.com" or App in the iPhone 4 / iPad 2. Thus I do little "see the iMac, iPhone 4 and my iPad 2" and not the Macbook Pro !?!

Roaming (ethernet connected base station) and wireless extended network at the same time. Good idea?

I have a Time Capsule (6th gen.) which is my main base station. I also have a number of airport extremes around the house. I only use them in the client mode, i.e. they just join the network so that I can stream audio to devices connected to them.
As I had bad reception in the garden, I installed my old dual-band airport extreme (4th gen) in the garden shed. All Apple articles I read on the topic convinced me that roaming (ethernet connected base station) is much better than wireless extending because you don't lose throughput. As I had no ethernet in the shed, I used two powerline adapters to bring ethernet there and I connected my airport extreme.
Then I had to re-install all the airport expresses (as I had also changed the name of the network) and I noticed that the default option of the Airport utility is to make them extend the network wirelessly instead of just joining to it. I did not do it, but I am wondering. Is it a good idea? As they are in different rooms than the Time Capsule, of course the network there is not as strong as close to the Time Capsule. I still get "good enough" connection, but I will I have an improvement if I allow every Airport Express to extend the network as well? Or will I have problems with the throughput. My idea is not to do it and keep the net as simple as possible, i.e just extend it with roaming in the garden where I really need it and let the airport expresses in client mode.

As usual AirPort Utility is trying to be clever. It is proposing what Apple thinks most people will want to do with it, and most of the time it succeeds.
Having the Expresses "wirelessly extend" the Time Capsule's wireless network will increase your wireless network service area and should not introduce new problems. If that is not what you want to do though, you can certainly return to AirPort Utility and select "join a wireless network". It is a simpler configuration, and simpler is better for home wireless networks.

How can I listen to itunes and play a game at the same time on my ipad 4?

How can I listen to itunes and play a game at the same time on my ipad 4? This means I need to run 2 apps at the same time itunes and my game. The game has its own sound control so I can turn off its sound while i listen to itunes tracks. But I don't know how to set it up so the ipad does both.

Anytime you open an app that has a persistant sound stream - a movie, a podcast, some games - it will overide the music app's stream. nothiong you can do to change it.

How can you listen to music and play a game at the same time?

I am playing music, by starting the Crash Baandicoot Nitro Kart 3D game it shuts off the music playing. Is there a way around this?
It seems like this should be possible.

Select the music play list you want to listen to and start it playing. Go back to the home screen and start the app you want to use, music will stop. Press the home button two time quickly and it will bring up a simple control for controling the music. This works for me with all of the apps I have purchased including games. Just a note you can pull up the same music control if the iPod is a sleep and locked by pressing the button three times quickly.

How do I get the Time Capsule to run both 5GHz and 2.4GHz networks at the same time.

How do I get the Time Capsule to run both 5GHz and 2.4GHz networks at the same time.

Thanks for digging out the facts.
You have a 1st Generation Time Capsule.
Your model can produce two bands....either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz....but not both simultaneously.
You would need a Generation 2, 3 or 4 Time Capsule for simultaneous dual band capability.

WRT54G can''t connect to internet or 192.168.1.1

My router used to work. I updated the firmware to 4.21. xx and after that I can't connect to internet.
When I connect directly to modem, I can go to the internet . I power recycled etc but when I connect to the router, it says limited connectivity. It shows autoconfigurtion ip:169.254.251.135
I don't know why this is so.
I don't have the setup cd disk but I read the users' guide and it seems that I really don;t need the cd. But no matter what I do , I can't get to 192.168.1.1 .
Do I need a setup cd and where I can download?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks ,
Sankar

Do the 30/30/30 Hard Reset and then check the IP address on that computer. For the reset steps do the following:
The following procedure will clear out the NVRAM and set Router back to default values:
With the unit powered on, press and hold the reset button on back of unit for 30 seconds
Without releasing the reset button, unplug the unit and hold reset for another 30 seconds
Plug the unit back in STILL holding the reset button a final 30 seconds....
If still you are getting same IP address then try to reduce the LAN card speed. Here is the step:
START--> right-click My Network Places and click Properties
right-click on the device and click properties
Click on the CONFIGURE button
Select the ADVANCED tab and the settings you can alter are listed on the left.

Can I set up wireless internet and a wireless printer at the same time?

I have an AirPort Express configured already which allows wireless access to the internet (as it is connected to my broadband router) but can I also configure it to allow wireless printer sharing at the same time?
I would appreciate an answer on this as I have been unable to determine it so far.
Many thanks

The Express has a single Ethernet port, whereas, the Extreme has four would be one of most distinguishing feature differences. Obviously size differences would be #1. (ref: Identifying AirPort Hardware)
When connected directly another router, you have (effectively) two routers in series. In this configuration, the AirPort Express would need to be reconfigured as a bridge. This will allow the broadband router to provide both NAT & DHCP services for all the wired/wireless clients connected to either router.

Can a single AE receive and deliver multiple signals at the same time?

I've looked through the forums and the AE pdf manual and have not been able to find a definitive answer so far.
We have a (all Apple) cafe in a remote location with no Apple support and we presently operate wireless music and wireless internet for customer use from one iMac and one AE. The iMac is also our cashier station. We have another iMac for customers who don't have their own laptops. The iMacs switch to screensaver displays promoting the cafe when not in use.
Our wired TV monitors that are currently not associated with our AE display either satellite TV, cable TV or from DVD player using a manually switched hub with the three separate receivers wired to the hub.
We want to add streaming TV from the internet to the TV monitors so we will have four sources. I am looking at connecting this internet streaming TV source to the TVs via AE hence I want to also allow the other TV sources to operate via AE. If possible, we would also like to switch in the screensaver from one iMac on a timed basis (or using Apple remote to one iMac) if there is nothing else of particular interest on the TVs.
The AE has multiple ports that can be expanded using hubs that we can hopefully connect the existing 3 TV sources, and can receive / transmit to multiple computers but can it operate the iTunes, internet distribution, and TV output (with switching TV inputs via the iMac & AE Utility) at the same time or do we need multiple AEs and another computer?

The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) does not have a TV or video output.
The AEBS, just like any other router, supports multiple clients simultaneously. Of course there is always bandwidth limitations for any device. So in theory the AEBS can support all of that. In reality the performance of each service will depend on the bandwidth used by each and the bandwidth available. This is no different than any router.

Can I have an IPOD and an IPOD Shuffle at the same time?

I have had my IPOD for almost 2 years. Recently as a gift I received an IPOD shuffle. Can I connect the shuffle to my pretty robust ITunes that is connected to my 20GB IPOD?
I don't want to mess up my current library, so before I tried hooking up the shuffle, I wanted to make sure nothing bad would happen.

As Samtherocker says, you can use two (or more) iPods with one computer; in fact, you can connect them both at the same time and iTunes will allow you to maintain them separately. The iPod preferences in iTunes will now have a drop down list when they're both connected and you can have separate preferences.
This article goes into more details: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300432
As an experiment, I connected all three of my iPods to my Powerbook and it worked flawlessly; the only problem I then had was that I ran out of USB ports, so I couldn't use my mouse. Time to get a wireless mouse methinks...

How can i send multiple videos and photos, via mail, at the same time?

you allowed to send only one video or 10(+) photos via mail.
but can you send both at the same time? so 10(+) photos and a video (or more than one) in one mail?
because if my mom has birthday pictures or something like that. She likes to be able to send it directly from her iphone to every person she knows in just one mail.
anyone any tips or tricks?

Those restrictions are generally part of the email provider, not just the phone. Attachments are restricted due to size, bandwith use, etc. Trying to send that much information in an email attachment is even restricted on a computer. Sharing via photo sites is generally a better option for large amounts of pictures and large video files.

Can AirPort Express connect a wireless and a non-wireless at the same time

Hello everyone,
I have both a PowerBook G4 with wireless card, and a 17 inch iMac G4. Is there a way to connect both of them to the internet using the airport express?? can the PB access via wireless and the iMac via the usb port perhaps?? right now I connect the non-wireless directly to the broadband modem using ethernet.any pointers will be really appreciated!!
Thanks

If you have a single Airport Express then the answer is no.
The USB port is for printing only.
