Closet - core routed link. What to do with VLAN1.

I am connecting closets to core over routed links, what do I do with VLAN1? Right now it is enabled with no IP address. Do I do a shut? Leave it up and give it an addres with a 255.255.255.255 mask? Everything seems to be working except for NTP which may not be related.

For security reasons I would disable vlan1, this is Cisco's default vlan. I still would suggest setting up a vlan for management purposes (vlan10 or similar) and give it an IP address so you can remotley manage this device.

L2 and L3 Routed Link between 2 COREs

Hi
What is the difference between L2 (Dot1q) and L3 Routed Link between 2 COREs in term of Functionality
thanks

Hello Ibrahim ,
I will try to explain ,
VLANs put tag on frames to ensure packet do not leave layer 2 broadcast domain and yet will reach to all ports part of that vlan ( as per tag ) .
Layer 3 SVIs on other hand provides layer 3 reachability for vlans and hosts inside layer 2 vlan . To achieve this all layer2 vlan host provide with related layer 3 SVIs ip address as gateway .
I hope you got it by now .

Modem router link down in a small network when I connect any mac with OSX

With OS9 I have no problems at all the other machines are PCs, I try whith 2 diferent laptops, and 2 macmini and the internet connection throught a modem router link down inmediatly... and the modem try to connect many times automaticly, and connect for few minutes... after that being link down again... any ideas what the problem is? I think a protocol interference may cause this, but I don't know what really... thanks

Start by changing the wireless names to SMB compatible names.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. Make sure the HP is in range of the router.
You can use the WPS setup via the utility main menu. There is no WPS button as such but apple has had to provide some way to handle this directly.

I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).

HT4260 I have an AirPort Extreme and a linksys router. What is the best way to get 6-8 wired connections with ac speeds?

I have an AirPort Extreme and a linksys router. What is the best way to get 6-8 wired connections with ac speeds?
Appreciate your assistance.

The answer depends on whether the AirPort Extreme is your main router....or...the Linksys device is your main router.
In either case, the two devices must connect together using a wired Ethernet connection using CAT5e or CAT6 cabling.
Any version of the AirPort Extreme produced within the last 5 years will have Gigabit Ethernet ports. In order to get the same speeds from the Linksys router, it will also need to be Gigabit Ethernet capable.
If you need additional Ethernet ports, you will need to add a Gigabit Ethernet switch to either the AirPort Extreme or Linksys router.
It is assumed that your other devices connecting to the AirPort Extreme and Linksys router will also have Gigabit Ethernet capability.
Not sure why you mention "ac" speeds in your post. This relates to wireless connections, not wired.

Banner with a clickable link, what am I doing wrong???

I am trying to make a web banner out of an image I have with a link added so when you click the banner it takes you to the website. It looks fine on my computer but when I saved and email it the image is gone but the link still works. What am I doing wrong?

HTML emails require you to save the images on a server then link to those images with absolute links in the email.
The recipient's email client also needs to be set up to view images (many aren't).

What to do with old ATC?

My Airport Time Capsule (purchased April 2009) has apparently died.
A 'factory reset' results in a green light, then flashing amber, then solid amber, then the LED goes dark. It never appears in Airport utility during this process.
I was using it mainly for backup and don't need a wireless router, so I bought an external hard drive to serve that purpose.
So what do I do with the old ATC? I don't know if my data is still on it or not. I hate to throw it in the trash. Is it recycleable? Is it worth anything to someone with the know-how to fix it? If they fix it, will my data be exposed?
I just don't know what to do with it now. Any suggestions?

You were right. Power supply was dead.
I've never done anything like this before, but thanks to the link you provided with instructions, I opened up my time capsule.
I have no way to wipe the hard drive, so I decided to take a chance on replacing the power supply.
Ordered one on eBay ($79.95) and installed it. Time Capsule powered up and is running fine. It runs really hot so after reading about all the issues with the design, I decided to leave the rubber mat off the bottom and got some 'feet' for it so it doesn't sit flat on the shelf.
I wiped the hard drive and started my Time Machine backups again. I really prefer the 'wireless' backup to the TC rather than having the USB hard drive plugged into my Macbook Pro for backups.
If I can get another 4 years out of it, it will be well worth it!
Thanks again for the advice!

What to do with the CPU whine?

I have a Core 2 Duo 2,16Ghz White Macbook bought a month ago. It has the infamous CPU (or logic board) whine - which Apple aknowledged on their MacBook Pro line. I have gone to the local Apple dealer where they said yes it whines but that Apple hasn't issued any orders as to what to do with the whine so try to put up with it... not very nice actually.
The Macbook whine behaves almost identically to the Macbook Pro whine, so you can minimize it using PhotoBooth and some other programs. And using a Apple Might Mouse Bluetooth also takes the whine away (because the cpu is less idle).
How can i get rid of the whine (high pitched noise-buzz)?

I've seen quite a number of posts on the whine from various manufacturers. HP has actually posted a BIOS update to address the problem (at a significant cost to power management):
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?docname=c00965412&cc=us&dlc=e n&lc=en&jumpid=regR1002USEN
As the MacBooks (and MacBook Pros) don't have a BIOS, Apple would have to push out an EFI firmware update. I would certainly prefer that if they go this route, they give you an option in preferences to either enable or disable the power saver features.
Here is another comment referencing the whine other machines:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=103747 (Toshiba, Sony, and HP)
Unfortunately... I don't see any easy fix to this. I would imagine it is possible that some logic boards may exhibit the problem to greater or lesser degrees, but there would be no way to guarantee that replacing the logic board would result in a machine with less whine.

What's wrong with networking since Leopard?

Hi,
I'm with Mac since years. I was a PC User once and spent hours with all kinds of network troubles. What convinced me with Mac right in the beginning was easy networking: It just worked!
But since Leopard things got worse: I have several MBP's, iMacs, Airport Extreme's and Airport Express's at different places which I installed, and I face the same problems at EVERY place:
- I can't connect to AExtreme for several reasons: timeout, security incompatibility, ...
- Sometimes only two Macs are allowed to connect to one AExtreme
- Airport doesn't find Aiport or any other networks for minutes
- After connecting to the router, can't get an IP (self-assigned IP only) - other PCs get an IP.
- Aiport Extreme crashes (yellow blinking)
- connection loss (even when AExtreme is very close)
Now I know about networking, about configuration, I've done this for years. Whatever I do, problems disappear and appear again, at different times, at different places with different hardware.
What is wrong with Leopard? Such problems remind me of times with Windows98 and stuff like that.

What's wrong with networking since Leopard?
on my network and many i have setup there have been no problems with leopard. However there are always teething problems with new operating systems. Thankfully with leopard only a tiny percentage of users experience technical difficulties.
can't connect to AExtreme for several reasons: timeout, security incompatibility,
is it set to use WPA/WPA2
Airport doesn't find Aiport or any other networks for minutes
sometimes my macbook pro takes a while to show up any networks if there are lots in the area this is because it is scanning them all.
After connecting to the router, can't get an IP (self-assigned IP only) - other PCs get an IP.
What kind of router are you using? What happens if you powercycle the router?
# Aiport Extreme crashes (yellow blinking)
# connection loss (even when AExtreme is very close)
Have you tried resetting your AE to default. reinstalling its firmware or checking for a firmware update?
Have you tried changing hte wireless channel your networ is broadcasting on?
What is wrong with Leopard? Such problems remind me of times with Windows98 and stuff like that.
Did you upgrade install your leopard installation or did you do clean (erase) installations?
Have you tried created new network locations?

What's happening with my 2ndGen AEX at night? Pings sometimes go over 1000ms!

What's happening with my 2ndGen AEX at night? Pings sometimes go over 1000ms!
My Airport Extreme is perfect all day but sometimes late at night my ping goes over 1000ms. Wired or Wifi is the same. There's no rhyme or reason as to when it happens either. Random times and random nights (sometimes several nights in a row, other times not for week or more). Resetting doesn't help, but If I go direct to the modem, pings are around 15-30ms... normal for me. It's been a problem for me for a while now, and I'm not sure if its the latest firmware update that did it. I first noticed it playing my Xbox 360 sometime last summer or fall. The ping times will suddenly (usually around midnight or 1am) be so high that I can't play any multiplayer games. I go to speedtest.net and my ping is anywhere from 500ms to 1118ms is the highest I've seen. If I reset the router, it is fine for a couple minutes and then right back to to the high pings. As I said, the modem is fine when I go direct, so something is causing the Airport Extreme to have trouble. It's not the XB360, cause it also happens with my XB1 and only at night. I play during the day, as well, and have no troubles.
I believe that there are certain programs that can cause this, like Vuze, but this only ever happens when everyone in the house is in bed, and both mine and my wife's laptops will be asleep. I do have a Mac Mini connected to another TV in the house, but the only thing it should be doing at that hour is its hourly Time Machine backup to a USB drive plugged directly into it. I do have a network drive attached to the AEX, but I only use that for manual backups for our laptops, neither of which is being done when this occurs. My wife and I also each have an iPad (the 2 and an Air) and an iPhone 5. Could they somehow be causing this? Maybe an automated iCloud backup occuring at night? Although, I use several devices on my network all day long without this kind of thing happening so I don't know why that would cause this kind of problem. Just to round out my collection, I have to older Airport Expresses as well to extend the network and are mostly used for the audio out.

Test after each of the following steps that you haven’t already tried:
Step 1
Take all the steps suggested in this support article. That's the starting point for any further effort to solve the problem. Skipping any of those steps may mean that the problem won't be solved.
Step 2
From the menu bar, select
System Preferences ▹ Accessibility ▹ Speakable Items: Off
Step 3
Reset the SMC.
Step 4
Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal. Don’t launch any applications at first. If sleep still doesn’t work properly, back up all data and reinstall the OS. After that, if you still have the issue, make a “Genius” appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
If sleep now works as expected, go on to the next step.
Step 5
Still in safe mode, launch the usual set of applications that are running when you have the problem, including your login items, one at a time, testing after each one. Some applications may not work; skip them. You might be able to identify the cause of the problem this way.
Step 6
If sleep is still working after you’ve launched all the usual applications, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and test again. If sleep still works, you’re done, at least for the moment.
If you still have the sleep issue after booting out of safe mode, post again.

Your wifi problem sounds very much like the problem I had. The wifi would drop out, the icon showed it was still connected. If I turned it off, I couldn't turn it back on. Another user here pointed me to the problem, which was the wifi cable (the flat cable goint from the card to the motherboard). I found it on ebay for $13 and it's been running fine since I replaced it. This is the repair guide for your machine. The part number will be on there if you click the link.

New router: cp1525nw wifi install fails with vague error message

Product: HP Laserjet Pro cp1525nw
OS: WIndows 8.1
Hardware: Asus laptop
Recently received new router from Verizon (FIOS), model FQG1100 BHR4 Router
Purchased printer in 2012.
Printer was working with old router; it won't communicate with new router.
Over four days I have repeatedly removed the printer from the laptop and tried reinstalling using the wifi method. The install instructions say to run the CD, choose wifi, connect the USB cable when prompted, configure, remove cable when prompted.
When I attach the USB cable the configuration starts, but it either times out ("taking too long") or fails with vague message about not finding the product. I am never prompted for an SSID.
I tried a USB install and that worked; so the USB cable is good.
Windows File & Print Sharing is enabled.
I've tried re-setting the printer to defaults, and ensured the wifi menu says "ON" for wifi.
I ran a wireless network test report:
PASS for wireless on, wireless working, and Security.
FAIL for Network Name (SSID) Found.
NOT RUN for: printer settings consistant with wireless router settings, No filtering, connected, signal strength, other networks detected.
Wireless netwrorks detected: 9
I note the router label does not statE "SSID", but says "ESSID".
I would appreciate any ideas for what to try.

Last night I finally got it to work. I removed the printer fully from the PC and rebooted. I turned off the printer. I ran a cable to the router (cable modem). I reset the router, which then assigned an IP address to the printer. I changed the security settings on the router to use WEP instead of WPA. I ran the HP printer setup program---and it finally presented me with the "provide SSID" screen. The program ran successully. I printed a test page. I changed the router secuirty back to WPA2. I printed another test page. I tried rebooting everything and printed again. I also tried removing the cable and then printing again---the printing failed.
In short, I needed to do two things: connect a cable and change the router temporarily to WEP for the install.
In my case, my printer is close enough to the router to run the cable. A little disappointing that the true wireless won't work, but I can print wirelessly from my laptop.
I've seen how a lot of people have had the same issue I had, and how HP is of no help in solving this issue. I'm convinced the printer has a flaw. I hope my posts will be of benefit to a few people having the same issue.
