Can't get switch ports to work

Okay so I have a basic home lab, 2600 router x2 and 2900 XL switch x 2. I've connected each router together (they "see" each other in cdp), and each router to one switch. My problem is that the interfaces that the router connects to the switch won't accept an ip address, (it says unrecognized command) and the switch lights are off). A "show status" says only the trunk port (22 on each switch) are connected. I've checked the cabling, it works, and the cables are out of the box. What am I missing/forgetting?
Sorry if i newb :\ I'm Looking forward to going over static routes xD
Thanks,
Devlin
(I looked throught the documentation, maybe I missed it? I did a config reset on the switches. I bought these used, I hope they aren't broken :\)

Quantum Gateway G1100 router - can't get ethernet ports to work?!

I just got a Quantum Gateway G1100 router, and the improvement in wireless networking speed over my old Actiontec router is as advertised.
However, I find that I can’t get any of my wired devices to connect to the router via any of the four yellow Ethernet ports on the back of the unit. I can only connect to this thing wirelessly. Hooking up my PC to the router with an Ethernet cable gets me no connection, not even to the router itself at 192.168.1.1 (or myfiosgateway.com).
I have a PC, a printer, a network drive/media server and a Roku all wired to my router, none of them are detected. I can connect my PC and Roku wirelessly, but the network drive and printer must be wired.
The instructions act like it should be plug-and-go for the Ethernet ports, which has always been my experience with other routers over 10+ years of using Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, Actiontec, etc., units. Usually it’s the wireless network config that has hiccups. This is a first for me.
Am I missing something obvious? I’ve swapped back in my old Actiontec router just to check things out, and the wired devices all see my home network and the internet as well.
Interestingly, if I go to the “My Network” tab on the router, I see one and only one Ethernet device. I don’t know what it is, and it is labeled “Active”, but it’s sitting on 192.168.1.4, which is the static IP address I’d configured my network drive to grab, yet it is not the network drive (any attempt to connect to it just times out).

it does give me an IP address for the ethernet connection - 192.168.1.151 - that is different from the one for the wireless connection, which is 192.168.1.152. I can see both of these listed on the router's connections as well, in the My Network tab, if I Show All. But if I disable the wireless, my PC cannot ping either iteself or the router at 192.168.1.1.
In fact, I can ping 192.168.1.152 (the wireless connection) but never 192.168.1.151.
There is no IP address for my other wired devices, except that I do see 192.168.1.4 appearing, which is the static address of the network drive device. But I cannot connect to it (there is a web and media server running on the device which ordinarily pops up a config screen at 192.168.1.4).

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

HT201413 I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again?

I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode, however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again? I have updated and restored 5 times! When connected to itunes it only shows the summary page saying ipod in recovery mode.

Fixed it!
1. Made sure itunes software was up to date
2. Pressed and held 'home' button and 'on-off' button at the same time for about 10 seconds till ipod reset (I hadn't done this step previously)
3. Connected to itunes
4. Pressed restore and update ipod
Update successful and ipod taken out of recovery mode

How can I get my speaker to work again?

How can I get my speaker to work again? I've tried turning my phone off and on, hard reset, removing SIM, cleaning out dust, using the hair dryer, network reset, cleaning headphone port, made sure the phone was not on vibrate,and made sure "Change with buttons" was on. There was no liquid/moisture damage. I was watching a video on youtube and all of a sudden my speaker went out. If I tap on the speaker it goes in and out but does not stay on/loud.

Do you get sound in any apps e.g. in Music and Videos but not notifications or sound in other apps ? If you do get sound in Music and Videos then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If you don't get sound in any apps then have you could try a soft-reset to see if you get sound after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Can't get video chat to work outside of LAN...

Hello,
I can't get video chat to work.
All computers, LAN and WAN are running the latest iChat under 10.4 (including latest updates).
Within our LAN, via Bonjour, everything is fine.
I'm now trying to set up an offsite Intel iMac (10.4) and I can't connect via video chat with them.
I've had this problem in the past and eventually gave up (so much for "it just works" - I've spent the last 10+ years dealing with Macs and Mac-based networking, I can't imagine "my dad" figuring this all out). Trying again with fingers crossed...?
If someone could help, it'd be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Kristin.
The studio router/firewall is a SonicWall TZ 170 Standard.
This router has a static IP.
All suggested ports on the SonicWall are set up correctly to allow in/out from our LAN.
All computers on the LAN have static IP addresses.
Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
No iChat add-ons on any computers.
Internet connection speed = 7404 kb/s
The offside router/firewall is a LinkSys WRT54G
This router does not have a static IP.
DMZ is ON and set to the only computer connected to it.
Computer has a static IP address.
Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
No iChat add-ons on computer.
Internet connection speed = 5116 kb/s
If any more information is required to help you help me, just let me know!

Does the TZ170 have UPnP or Port Triggering then ?
I can not see that it does here
Opening the ports in the manner listed on that link will only allow one computer (IP) to use the open ports.
The Linksys is router and you have not mentioned what the modem is doing at that end.
Why not use UPnP here ? The Linksys does it (on the Administration page)
Most likely this needs the Respond to Anonymous Pings checked on the Security page.

Can't get Lion Server to work

Hi
As written above. I can't get Lion server to work.
I have succesfully installed the program, and turn on some of the services. Then I have bought a domain, to connect to my server. But if I try to connect to my IP, from another computer, it doesn't connect. I have tried to "port forwarding" port 80 on my router, and given my Mac a static IP. I have checked with a "Check port opener" if the port 80 was in reach, it was.
So my question is, what is the next I can do to make it work. First with the IP and then with my domain?

Yes, SMTP used to work but stopped after new cert applied. IMAP works fine. Removed SSL and still doesn't work (although should it be restarted or is save for changes okay).

Can't get cell borders to work

I'm new Mac user...and I'm having a terrible time working with some spreadsheets that I created in Excel and saved as .numbers docs.
My current problem is: I can't get cell borders to work. I had an existing Excel spreadsheet and when I saved it as a num.doc, I lost my column headers. I selected table columns for 3 columns. When I did this I lost the existing cell borders. Now when I try to put them back, they appear while I am in the selected rows, so it looks like it worked, but then when I click another cell, the borders all disappear.
Can anyone help me out?
Right now I really miss my PC
People keep telling me I'll love my MAC one day, but I'm still waiting...

Microsoft Office is available for Macs. That might be one solution to your problem and might make this switch from PC to Mac a little easier for you.
Conversions from one format to another are often not perfect. Numbers and Excel are sufficiently different that you might spend considerable time redesigning an imported Excel spreadsheet to make it look and print as you would like it to in Numbers. With regards to borders, it is possible you are not following the proper steps to create borders. There is definitely a learning curve going from Excel to Numbers. Have you downloaded and read the Numbers Users Manual that is available in the Help menu?

Can't get iCal alarm to work

I've tried everything that I've read ... but I can't get the alarm to work - Does anyone else have this problem OR solution?
Thx in advance!

Do you have it set to go off to a certain song, or the beep? It might be that if you have it set off to go to a song, that listening to tunes might override the alarm. I'll know more in about 1 minute...
Mine works while playing music without headphones and the alarm is set to beep. Another minute or two and I'll test the alarm going off to a song while in shuffle mode.
I did just what I said...and it worked fine. It plays the little beeping tune and then switches to a song in the playlist you've selected.
I'm out of ideas on why it might not be working. All I can think of is to make sure that the alarm you set is listed before going back to the main menu.

How can i get fallout 2 to work

How can I get Fallout 2 to work on my mac book pro. I just got my computer and the graphics are all messed up. I tryed installing it on a friends computer and it worked. He has a mac book pro that is only about 8 months old. Why wont it work on mine?

Ask your fellow MBP owners -
MacBook Pro
http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro
I hope none of you are getting it off torrents, always trouble in that dept.
Maybe it needs a patch for yours and ATI 6xxxx mobility.
It helps to know the specs, and model number (17"? etc)
http://support.apple.com/specs/#macbookpro
Graphics and video support
AMD Radeon HD 6490M graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR5 memory on 2.0GHz configuration; or AMD Radeon HD 6750M graphics processor with 1GB of GDDR5 memory on 2.2GHz configuration
Intel HD Graphics 3000 with 384MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory5
Automatic graphics switching
Dual display and video mirroring: Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on an external display, both at millions of colors
so it could be getting messed up with using the Intel graphics - for all I don't know - or you have 6490M with just 256MB

Please help. How can i get my mic to work??

+ Hi all
I have a creative inspire 5. 5700 hooked up to my X-FI extreme music via Digital I/O port.
However im a bit pissed off because i cant get a microphone to work, it seems that the port i use my speakers for is the same port as the microphone..
Any ideas how to get my mic to work without unplugging the digital I/O?
Cheers

/Re: Please help. How can i get my mic to work? The only solution that I can think of is to get the?X-Fi I/O Dri've. Unfortunately, Creative does not sell this anymore on their store. You can buy it online, though most places I find it at, it is refurbished.
This is what it looks like: http://us.creative.com/products/prod...5&product=4659#
The other alternati've is the X-Fi I/O Console. This, however is rather expensi've (I think it is anyways).

Unfortunately those are the only ways I know of. The X-Fi Xtreme Music does not hook into normal front panel solutions.

Imac i5 late 2009 running OS X 10.8.4 and can't get FireWire connection to work

I have Imac i5 late 2009 running OS X 10.8.4 and can't get FireWire connection to work with LaCie external drive. I have gone through older posts and tried with no luck power cable and holding down start button for 15 seconds and restoring power and also removing power cable waitng 10 minutes replugging power cable holding down alt command P, R keys until second beep is heard. I know that LaCie drive and cable are working, they were connnected to another iMac without issues. What options do I have left to get FireWire to work? The System Report just says
FireWire Bus:
Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec.
Thanks for any help
CS

I did not mention in original post that when initially connected to the Firewire port the LaCie drive I can hear activity so the drive is getting power. Does this mean the Firewire port may not be physically damamged and there may be options for resetting? Are there any 3rd party software repair programs worth buying for diagnostics and repair of the FireWire port?

I can't get the connect to work after base installion.

Hello, everyone, I am new to Arch Linux.
I follow the installation guide install Arch Linux, Everything run pretty smooth, except at the part when I need to choose the package, I am not so sure what I am doing. So I choose everything except for the thing that I am sure I would never need.
When the installation is complete, I try to go to the next setup which update my system, but some how, I can't get the connection working, switch mean, I couldn't do anything beyond that. (both wireless and wired network, BTW I am using DSL and I do try the adsl thing)
Every thing seem make sense to me during the installation, but I just can't get the network connection working.
BTW: my laptop is a Toshiba portege M100.
Any idea?
Thanks

Try typing in:
dhcpcd eth0 (or whatever interface you are using)
and hit enter, I had the same type of problem and this woke up my network connection.
Edit: Also, once you gain your connection up and running, you might want to install ifplugd. It is a daemon which will automatically configure your Ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically unconfigure it if the cable is pulled, which is good for laptops. Once installed make sure you put it in /etc/rc.conf under the DAEMONS section.
Here is some info in the wiki http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_network
