Changing channel on AE when in client mode to avoid audio dropouts with itu

I am getting audio dropouts 7 to 8 seconds into a song consistently on my mac book which is wirelessly connected to g5 via lynksys router. There is some traffic on my current channel, but I can't figure out how to change the channel in client mode I can only change it own independent network. Will this even help? or am I asking too much? Do I even need to lynksys because both macs have airport built in? G5 seems to work fine with itunes connected to 3 airports it's when I play itunes from mac book that I get the dropouts.

  • My microphone won't work when in Speaker mode, but will when in regular mode. What is up with that?

    My iPhone's microphone will not work in the Speaker mode, but will when in Regular mode. The microphone works even when in bluetooth mode. This was sudden and no updates have been made recently, but it is up to date with the software.

    I took it to the apple store and it was determined to be a mechanical problem. Since I had apple care, they replaced the phone.

  • HT1731 Airport wont show up in Airport Utility when in client mode.

    When i follow these steps on my Airport Extreme it restarts but then it wont show up in Airport Utility and my PC or Xbox wont connect to the internet through ethernet. The amber light is green and the AE is connected to my iPhone. I'm sharing internet from my iPhone and using the Airport Utility on my PC. Any advice?

    I am not sure that I understand your setup, but it might be important to note that the AirPort Extreme needs an Ethernet connection at its WAN "O" port to be able to provide an Internet connection to any devices that are connected to the LAN Ethernet ports on the Extreme.
    If you happen to have the AirPort Extreme picking up a wireless signal, the Ethernet ports are not enabled on the Extreme in this type of setup.

  • How do I change my master password when the current password is to press enter (with nothing in the password blank)?

    Whenever I try and change my master password I can not manage to.  I got a new hard drive and the person at the apple store told me that the password was to just press enter (with nothing in password blank), and that I would be able to change it.  Everytime I try and change the master password it says, "incorrect password" under the current master password blank.  It has been awhile since then and I have moved so I can not go back there and get them to figure it out.  So the question is, Is there anyway to change it without wiping my entire hard drive and starting over?

  • Medium write error when i try to burn an audio cd with itunes

    I have been surfing through a lot of forums and some people found it useful to choose a slower burn speed, some cleaned their disc drives and were helped for a few days but this problem keeps recurring. I have tried the opensource software "BURN" with no problems. I think the main problem is itunes and their low level software that communicates with the hardware. This is really an inconvenience. safari has major problems loading webpage unless opendns is used. I dont know what going on. I agree that apple probably makes the best softwares compared to microsoft in terms of speed and performance but they often get the basics wrong. Im switching back to a slower pc, atleast it will browse the net, play flv's properly and burn my f###ng discs. Ohh another greatest achievement by apple: The iphone 4.

  • Airport Express disconnects every 5mins (Client Mode)

    Hi all,
    I recently bought an Airport Express (n) so I could stream music to my Hi-Fi and bridge my Xbox 360.
    I have configured the AX to connect to my existing wireless network which is served up by a Billion 7800n router (G+N mode).
    However, every 5 minutes it disconnects from the network, here are sample of the logs..

    I'm using WPA2 AES encryption, wireless is on a non-competing channel and the airport is only 2-3 meters away from the router in the same room.
    Things I've tried are upgrading Router firmware to latest (1.6), switching Wi-Fi channels, enabling B mode on the router (BGN) but nothing seems to work.
    I don't think it's interference as it disconnects almost every 5 minutes which suggests some config/hardware issue.
    Anyone have any ideas? I've hit a brick wall.
    Thanks...

    Update:
    This appears to be by design? - connection doesn't drop when using AirTunes/Airfoil which is what I bought it for.
    However I thought the Ethernet port wouldn't work when used in Client mode (according to the FAQ). I was able to connect my Xbox 360 to the AX when in Client mode using a network cable and it is able to connect to Xbox Live. When doing this it drops off on the 5 minute intervals when the AX disconnects and reconnects.
    I guess if I used AirTunes at the same time as the X360 it would work.
    Would be nice if it worked as a stable bridge in client mode as I could bin off my other wireless bridges. Never mind - I ain't forking out for another AX so I can use "Apple's" WDS.

  • Audio cuts out (mDP - HDMI) when entering clamshell mode

    Hi - my MBA is late 2012 (8 GB, 2 GHz i7, 10.7.4). When I hook it up to the LED TV (a Toshiba 40L2200U) using a Folsom miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable (no separate adaptors, it's a 6' cable with mDP at one end and hdmi at the other) it works fine - audio is transmitted and it comes through the TV speakers. But when I close the lid and try to continue watching with the laptop in clamshell mode (a magic trackpad is around that is paired to it), video continues just fine but the audio cuts out.
    Annoyingly, when I open the lid back up the audio still doesn't work. I have to futz around a while before it comes back (restart any programs with audio output, unplug the cable and plug it back in again, move the audio output in system preferences to core audio and back again to the TV etc.)
    Does anyone know what's up with this? I don't think it can be the cable's fault--clearly it's able to transmit audio along with the video, and nothing changes about the cable when I close the lid.
    Could anyone with a similar setup (MBA/Lion -> TV via HDMI adaptor) let me know if you are able to enter clamshell mode without losing audio over hdmi?

    In 'alsamixer' I have a setting called ''Headphone Jack Sense' which if enabled mutes the speaker when a headphone jack is inserted.

  • AirPort Express cannot connect in client mode when encryption used

    I'm trying to set up my brand new AirPort Express in client mode to stream my music wirelessly to my receiver, which is on another floor of my house. I can't get it to associate with my Linksys WRV200 wireless router when using any kind of encryption. It works fine with encryption disabled, but I really don't want to leave that kind of security hole in my network.
    -Equipment-
    AirPort Extreme - v6.3 firmware
    AirPort Admin - v4.2
    WRV200 - v1.0.12 firmware (latest version)
    Dell desktop with Windows XP SP2 (Running iTunes 6.0.5.20)
    Dell laptop with Windows XP SP2 (running AirPort Admin)
    IBM laptop with Fedora Core 5 (for connection testing)
    -Procedure-
    Various encryption methods were set on the WRV200's primary SSID and matching settings were set on the AirPort. All changes to the AirPort Extreme were done wirelessly with AirPort Admin 4.2 on Windows XP SP2+latest updates. Here are the changes from default that I made on the AirPort:
    AirPort Tab
    -Name and password were changed
    -Wireless mode was set to "Join an existing wireless network (wireless client)"
    -Network name was changed but stayed consistent throughout the tests
    -Security setting was changed for each test
    Internet Tab
    -DHCP or manual IP were specified depending on the test.
    Music Tab
    -"Enable Air Tunes" was checked
    -A name was given to the share
    -Results-
    No Encryption - iTunes sees the AirPort Extreme and can stream music to it. This works in both DHCP and manual IP mode. Interestingly enough, when set to DHCP, it grabs the same address as the manual one I input, which isn't the next one in sequence for the DHCP server (192.168.1.250 instead of 192.168.1.103)
    128 bit WEP - Flashing orange light on the AirPort, no DHCP lease, no connection. Still doesn't work when a manual IP address is provided.
    WPA2 Personal - Solid green light for 10 seconds, then two amber flashes and back to solid green. I can see association requests in my router's log every 10 seconds or so while this is going on. The strange light pattern only happens when a manual IP is selected. I still see the association requests when DHCP is selected, but the light on the AirPort just flashes amber all the time.
    I know that the router's working correctly as my Linux and Windows laptops can DHCP and connect to the Internet with WEP or WPA2, but for some reason I can't connect the AirPort Express to the wireless router when I use encryption. I'd switch out the Linksys box, but I don't know of any other consumer-level wireless routers that allow multiple simultaneous wireless SSIDs.
    Does anyone have a suggestion of what to try next?
    AirPort Express   Other OS  

    One of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier for people, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
    The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a Netgear client and vice versa.
    One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is required).
    Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key must be used regardless.

  • How to change channel on 5GHz on new (2012) Airport Express when connecting to en excsiting network?

    Airport Express only provides channel 100 automatically when configuring it to connect to an excisting wireless network at 5GHz. This is out of range for most routers, which typicaly provieds channels 36 through 48 for connecting 5GHz devices.Only when you configure the Airport Express to establish a new wireless network it allows you to change channels manually. This is really weird. I have severeal Airport Express units (older model) around my house for streaming music, and they work just fine on 2.4 GHz, and so does the new (2012) one, but I bought it specifically to use 5GHz in a corner of my house with interference from surrounding 2.4 GHz networks, so I am really disappointed with this product. There should and must be a way to connect it to an excisting 5GHz network, but how to get the channel right in this cnfiguration mode?

    When you extend wireless you cannot switch channels.. The Express is locked to the channel used by the Extreme.. there is no choice about this.
    Reboot the extreme .. wait a minute and then reboot the express.. Channels will be tested on reboot to pick the best.. there is nothing much else you can do.

  • When change channels audio stuck in loop

    Starting yesterday when I change channels on the HD FIOS box- the channels change immediately as usual but the last sentence of the channel audio previous channel loops and repeats for about 7-8 seconds. Once it stops, the audio on the new channel is out of sync. If I change channels again- it corrects iteself.  I can usually change about 3-4 more channels and evertything is normal, however it will start up again. This is not a picture problem- just audio as descrived above.
    I have unplugged the HDMI- the cable from the wall to the unit- and uplugged the power to the HD unit yesterday (did not matter) and today (Did not matter).  Could the HD box need to be replaced?  I have an HD DVR downstairs and there is no problem on that system down stairs.
    Thanks

    Not sure if this will help, but did you try going into the DVR customer support menus and selecting the item called Fix Common STB/DVR issues?   This can correct a lot of audio & video issues on a DVR.  You will have to hunt for this menu item since Verizon for some reason keeps moving it around and renaming it every few months.  It will take 5 - 10 minutes to run and will reboot your DVR (perhaps a couple of times).
    I don't recommend pulling the plug on a Verizon DVR since you will likely cause more damage to the DVR hard drive.  The Verizon DVR is always recording your current channel even when it is in screensaver mode.  When you pull the plug, it may cause the recording head on the hard drive to become damaged or damage the recording surface since the drive head is not properly parked when it loses power.  At best you will corrupt the filesystem  on the hard drive.  Try the Fix Common DVR Issues app a couple of times before pulling the plug.   Pulling the plug should be the absolute last resort.

  • How to set a I/O channel in NI PXIe-6556 to ground when in PMU mode

    Is there a way or API call in LabVIEW to set any one of the channels to ground within the PXIe-6556 when in PMU mode?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you disconnect the PMU, you will have the option to go to tristate or your previous digital state, but not ground. Forcing 0V is probably the closest you can get to a GND like behavior. The default line state is tristate for this device, which will leave the line floating if there is no active driver.

  • Popping sound soundbar when changing channels

    I recently purchased a soundbar to go with my HDTV set. Experience popping when changing channels or when changing settings in the DVR. Manufacturer of the soundbar says that I must match the STB (Motorola 7232) audio settings with the TV's which is Force or LPCM and turn off Dolby Digital. However, I cannot find these settings.
    Take the soundbar out of the mix and the TV does not experience any popping. This tells me that this cannot be the STB but the manufacturer says it is. Any help with audio on FiOS TV would be greatly appreciated.
    Solved!

    Let us know if you find the menu. The tricky thing is that you have to power it off from the front display and then do ok menu using the remote. It took ne a couple times to get there with the new box. Best of luck.
