ConfigFree Autoswitch wireless to wired lan

I use laptop on office wired Lan then at home on wireless lan. I have set auto network switch to switch networks. Then I have set auto profile switch using SSIS and saved a home wireless LAN profile that changes proxy and printer.
It all works when go from office to home. However I cannot find anyway to get profile to switch back to office settings when I return to office and it auto swicthes to wires LAN. I can save and Office Lan profile but as it is not wireless and does not have a SSID it will not switch back automatically.
Anyway to do this?

Hi
> but as it is not wireless and does not have a SSID it will not switch back automatically.
I think this is the point;
In my opinion the Configsys doesnt switch to the LAN because of the missing LAN identification (SSID)
Here you can find nice description how to configure the Auto Switch by SSID
http://209.167.114.38/support/techsupport/troubleshooting/Configfree/index.htm
I think without the SSID you will not be able to get this function working.

Why do I get connection failed when logging in on app store on wireless, but Wired LAN works fine?

I've been having the same issue as many other people. On OSX Lion with latest updates as of 3/20/2012. Tried deleting .plist files, checking keychain access and even reset keychain. I still get the error of Connection Failed when trying to download updates or a new app from the app store.
I also can't connect to the iTunes "Account" area. It produces an error that the request failed (-1200)
I finally decided to try a wired connection instead of my wireless. Now it works great! So I removed my wireless network and re-added it. Back to square one. Work around for now is fine, but I should be able to use this over wireless, too!
I just now tested connecting to a different wireless network (EVO Hotspot) and it worked fine. So it's something specific to my office wireless network. Nothing changed on our firewall (I'm the administrator). It just stopped working.

Disable Wireless on Wired LAN Connection

Hi,
Right Now, my macbook pro use my ethernet and my wifi at the same time and i don't want that. Is there a way to say to my macbook pro to stay only with my ethernet connection when my cable is plug in it and no wifi come by? (I travel a lot with my mac and i cannot just do Turn Off / ON Wifi each time i plug ny cable in my mac)
Thanks in advance

The issue with what everyone suggests is that your computer STILL obtains 2 IP addresses. If you have 4 laptops in the family thats 8 IP's.. if you're in a workplace of 30 people thats 60 IP's for 30 systems.. doesn't matter if they are being 'used' or not. it's a huge waste of network resource.
Thats a HORRIBLE way to manage your resources. Plus, it wastes battery maintaining a connection it doesn't use.. Thats just silly! Apple truly does need to address this.. Even Dell laptops disable wireless connectivity (turns wifi on for GPS as needed, but keeps from connecting) while wired is connected.

Using a WRT54G as a second wireless and wired router on a LAN

I have setup a WRT54G as a second wired and wireless router on my local LAN.
The WAN wired side of the WRT54G is setup completely DHCP. It gets IP 192.168.1.104 most of the time. (I have used a PC with DHCP on theis ethernet wire and it gets to the internet OK).
The LAN side of the WRT54G is setup as 192.168.20.1 and all wireless and wired devices connecting to it get ips of 192.168.20.xxx and communicate between them selfs perfectly. However, none of them can get to the internet through the WRT54G. What have I done wrong?
Thank You

I guess your WRT54G is not connected to Internet directly, but it's connected to another router that has Internet access.
If this is the case, you can configure this device as access point/hub only in order to get Internet access from the other router. Ignore the WAN connection on this WRT54G, just connect both router's LAN port with crossover cable.. After that configure the WRT54G's wireless setting. You can get more detailed info on how to do it in following article:

Hope helps..

How can I get my wired LAN to share my iMac's wireless internet connection

Hi. (sorry for the long-winded posting below. I really struggled to explain what I'm trying to do, but would really appreciate any help from people who can recognise what I'm aiming for!)
I've seen several postings about sharing internet connection, but none (I think) which sort my problem.
I have a wired LAN with 3 Macs connected to a router, and the router to a cable modem and the internet. All working fine. All Macs have internet access.
I'm considering ditching my broadband provider, and so looking for a replacement configuration, at least for the short term.
So, I'd like to change the arrangement, connecting one of the Macs to the internet (through a local free WIFI hotspot) using it's airport card (that bit is done) and enable the other two Macs to share that connection via the router.
I've turned internet sharing on, and share connection from Built-In ethernet, on the internet connected Mac. But whatever
Has anyone got this setup working?
PB
Intel iMac 4,1 (early 2006) Mac OS X (10.4.8) 1Gb SDRAM, 2GHz

You can share a connection through the router or you can share a connection from the Mac via Internet Sharing, but you can't share an already shared connection.

AirPort Express (2nd gen), share internet wireless and wired in the same time

If I use my AirPort Express (2nd gen) and I connect the modem in WAN port, and a switch in the LAN port (this swich connect a computer and a NAS wired), can I share the internet wireless and via LAN and the same time?, the wireless devices and the wired devices would be in the same network?.
Thanks.

Thanks!

Wired LAN on iPhone

Hey guys,
I was trying to use office internet on my laptop to access net on iPhone. I have a wired LAN.
Any clues on how to do it if at all its possible???

Anirudh Hingle wrote:
I have already followed his blog but i think he is explaining the process if one has a data cord or something...
The iPhone cannot connect to the Internet through it's cable the only way to do it is via Wi-Fi through your laptop this is the process that he was explaining.
m not sure whether it will work for wired lan
While your Network at work is wired and thus off-limits to the iPhone 9due to connection limitations) you can use your laptop to create an wireless access point thus giving the iPhone a way in.
The process described in the link is the only setup possible with you current hardware to be able to do this.
If you are having trouble setting this up my recommendation would be to just invest in a Wi-Fi router (or get your work to), you can get them for very little cost and they will save you from having to play around with network settings and quite possibly compromising your work's network security.
You could get anything from a USB dongle style to an AirPort Express or even An AirPort Extreme base Station (just to name Apple's products that will work with this)
This would greatly simplify your task for you
otherwise if you still want to use the hardware you have available to you i would recommend hopping onto Microsofts discussion forum and ask about creating a Wireless access point with your Laptop as they would be better suited to answer those questions since they are Microsoft related. That link unfortunatley is the best laid out and informative one i know of without me writing one up myself.
I feel that what you are really trying to acheive is a mixed network topology system in a Multiple star network layout (which is similar to what i run at home but mines more of a mesh architecture).
With Wired and Wi-Fi options both integrated and the best way to acheive this is with a Wi-Fi router
(wish you could draw diagrams for usage on here would make life a lot easier )

[Solved] Failed to connect internet by Wired LAN, but wifi is working.

After installation of gnome in archlinux, I enabled NetworkManager.service. I can successfully connect to wireless network. But I can't connect to internet through wired LAN. It shows wired connection established in NetworkManager. But no internet connection is accessible. I found that when connected to wired network, running "dhcpcd" in terminal shows messages like "dhcpcd[13584]: enp19s0: reject NAK via 192.168.1.1" and finally timed out.
Can anyone give any suggestion ?

It seems like a problem in dhcp, you could try setting a static route in network manager, just copy the route of your wifi conection. TheSaint was asking for the output of the shell commands posted by him to diagnose the network problem.

Can't detect or print to C8189A All-in-One-Printer on a wired LAN

Computers on my home wired LAN repeatedly but intermittently stop being able to print to the HP C8189A printer attached via wired LAN connection. I began trouble shooting last night and uninstalled all HP software to start afresh.
I cannot print to my HP C8189A all-in-one printer conected to a wired network from my desktop PC running Windows XP with SP3. I can see the printer has pulled an IP from the router by looking at the router's attached client list. I can ping the printer at its assigned LAN IP address.
My desktop pc and the C8189A printer share a common DLINK Gigabit Switch which connects wired wired LAN to the DLINK router.
I uninstalled and reinstalled all HP software but during the HP Solutions Center software reinstall it could not find the PRINTER on the lan, even when inserting the Printer's assigned IP address.
When checking the network configuration from the printer, it confirms that it is has the correct IP address, but the HP software still cannot detect it. I have pulled the power connector from the back of the power a couple times to RESET the printer. This usually corrects what is now a terribly frustrating problem accessing the printer.
Additional factoids: 1) other PCs can print to this printer, 2) SPYBOT Search & Destroy is running on my PC and popped some registry change windows during the install.
I'm running out of ideas - any suggestions please?

Hmmm ... this is interesting. In review:
You can print intermittently from your XP SP3 box to the OJP L7680.
Disabling the SW firewall (Norton/Symantec, Zonealarm, McAfee, etc) on the SP3 PC doesn't help.
Other computers on your network have no problems printing to the OJP L7680.
You are running a wired (Ethernet) network.
Did I get this right? I'd like to ask a few more questions:
What are the other types of computers on your network and what firewall do they run?
The next time your XP SP3 computer has trouble printing to the OJP L7680, try to access the printer's internal web page.
What are the IP addresses of the other devices on your network? By chance, is there a duplicate address on your network?
Finally, you can try adding the print driver manually to see if we can get you printing. This is the sequence for XP:
Click "Start" button --> Printers and Faxes.
Under Printer Tasks, click "Add Printer".
Click "Next" button on the first Add Printer Wizard window.
If the option for Local or Network printer appears, select "Local printer attached to this computer" and deselect the "Automatically detect and install My Plug and play printer" option. Click "Next".
Under Select a Printer Port option, select "Create a new port" and select "Standard TCP/IP Port" and click "Next" button.
In the "Welcome to the Add Standard TCP/IP printer port wizard" make sure that the printer is turned on and configured. Click "Next" button.
Under "Add Standard TCP/IP Printer Port" enter the printer's host name (that is the hostname of printer that printed in network configuration page)
under "Additional Port Information" select "Standard". Click Next, and then click Finish.
Now, select HP from the list of manufacturers, select your printer from the list of Printer models and click 'Next' button.
The Printer name will be highlighted on the next window.
Click "Next" button.
It ask for the Printer name -- leave it as is.
Select "Yes" option for making the printer default.
Click "Next" button.
The Printer Sharing dialog box will open.
Click "Next" button.
The Print Test Page box appears.
Select "Yes" option to print a test page.
Print Test Page.
Completing the Add Printer Wizard box appears.
Click "Finish" button and wait for the files to copy
This should work to get you a print queue for your XP box.

Wired LAN for Laserjet P1100 printer?

I have a Laserjet pro P1100 printer that was connected to my iMac desktop via USB.We've moved and our new house has wired LAN outlets which I'd prefer to use rather than USB or wireless connections. Is there a way to adapt a standard RJ45 ethernet cable to the USB port on my printer?

Hey @drmac1 ,
Thanks a lot for the question, now lets get you an answer!
Unfortunately that is not possible.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Have a great day!
I worked for HP.

Wired LAN for Canon MP620

I have had mixed success once I upgraded my MacBook Pro 17CoreDuo to Snow Leopard with my Canon MP620 in my office. In Leopard, it was set up as a wired LAN, with a cable running from my Airport Extreme Base Station to my printer. Scanning was nice and speedy.
All I can seem to do now is get it set up wirelessly, and the scanning is way too slow.
What is the proper way to set up a wired LAN with Airport Extreme?
I have gone so far as to get the printer on the same IP settings as my Mac.
Mac IP is 192.168.1.55 Printer IP is 192.168.1.70
Mac Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0 Printer Subnet Mask is the same
Mac Router setting is 192.168.1.1 Printer Router Setting is the same
On the Printer, it is set to Wired LAN, and the wired LAN settings are all reading correctly.
I can print as long as I keep the USB connected to the printer. As soon as I try to remove it, it shows up as "offline".

When you have the printer connected via wired or wireless, you will have to add another print queue. The USB queue is purely for connecting from the Mac to the printer via USB, so this is why it will show offline when the USB is disconnected.
To add the network printer on 10.6, you don't use More Printer > Canon IJ Printer menu like you did with 10.5. Instead, you need to select the Default browser view and wait. The printer will eventually appear in the Default view with the Kind column showing 'canonijnetwork'. Note that you will probably see the scanner appear very quickly, because it uses a different protocol to advertise itself on the network.
Note that the printer will only advertise itself on the network if the v10.26 driver is installed. The version 10.19 driver included with 10.6 does not work across the network. If you open the Options & Supplies button for the USB printer queue, it will show which version you are using under the General tab.
Note also, if you have the Parallels VM application installed, this can stop the network printer from appearing in the Default browser view.

Sync with USB or UTP/wired-LAN?

Hi,
I'm seriously considering to buy an AppleTV. Now, the only question is concerning how the movies being sync into the Apple TV.
I'm running a PC with WinXP and do not have wireless devices. I see that AppleTV has a USB port and also an Etnernet port for wired LAN. Can I connect the Apple TV to my PC via either the USB or the Ethernet port and then sync (or copy) the movies to Apple TV?
If not, then I may need also to buy a wireless adapter for my PC. It will be on additional cost.

Can I connect the
Apple TV to my PC via either the USB or the Ethernet
port and then sync (or copy) the movies to Apple TV?
Yes using Ethernet; no using USB.

Windows Sharing problem from WLC 5508 to wired LAN

Dear All,
I'm having problem with windows sharing (file/printer sharing) from Wireless lan client which is connected to AP3500 and
WLC 5508 then to Nexus 7010. It's already using ip command, for example \\192.168.84.65
WLC os version 7.0.116.0 (using AP groups)
Nexus os version 4.2(6)
The weird thing is i can connect using windows sharing from wired LAN to wireless user however not vice versa.
for better explanation, here are the scenarios
1. Wireless lan to wired LAN using windows sharing - failed
1. Wired LAN to Wireless lan using windows sharing - success.
I've been analyzing by making sure that all the to end, there would be no firewall within source pc(s) and destination pc(s) and also
the ACL inside Nexus.
Been dying here to find solution for this, due to the customer is using it for file and printer sharing service.
Anyone has idea to solve this problem, i'm looking forward for any suggestion coming.
Arrai.

Peer to peer within wlc is using default setting which is allowed and as you may know, peer to peer permission only related between wireless client not wired one. CMIIW.

AirTunes works on wireless, not wired - same pc

AirTunes works perfectly when my pc is connected to my router via wireless, but when I am only connected via wired lan, the speakers aren't detected. The Airport Admin Utility also detects my AE via wireless, but via lan I have to use the Other… button and enter its ip address and password (indicating that there is still some kind of connection).
Likewise with my laptop.
Turning off Windows firewall makes no difference. Wireless and lan cards are on the same subnet. Airport light is always green.
I have Airport Express v6.3 configured as a client,
D-Link DSL-G604T router (wireless + lan) with latest firmware,
iTunes 7.02.16,
Airport Admin 4.2,
Windows XP SP2
The forum has been great to get me as far as this (it's been a battle), but I haven't seen anyone with this problem.
Thanks a lot.
(In case you're wondering, I want to take the wireless network card out of my pc because it causes it to crash at random.)

There will be no conflict at all. You can have as many A-TV's as you like.
The limits for home sharing are 5 computers and unlimited devices. (A-TV is considered a device)

Unable to see Shared Folder / Drop Box on wired LAN

I am unable to connect to another Mac on my wired LAN (Netgear wndr3700), and it is unable to connect to my machine. We cannot see each others’ Public Folder / Drop Box.
We can see each others Macs in the Shared section of the Finder’s sidebar, but trying to connect fails: “The server … may not exist or it is unavailable at this time…”
Both are running 10.6.4 Snow Leopard SL. No Windows machines on the LAN - so this should be AFP only.
We can see and connect to another Mac running 10.4.11 Tiger with no problem. BUT it is unable to connect to either 10.6.4 machine.
Firewall on both machines: On; File Sharing (AFP) set to “Allow incoming connections”; Stealth mode Enabled (toggling doesn’t change); “Automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections” is Off; “Block all incoming connections” is Off. Some other apps and services are set to Block… (krb5kdc, numbed, smbd…) AppleFileServer is set to Allow.
Sharing: File Sharing Service only is On:
Hard Drive - Everyone - Read & Write
Users - Everyone - Read Only
~ (My Home Directory) - Everyone - Read Only
Public - Everyone - Read & Write
Drop Box - Everyone - Write only
Thanks for any suggestions.

It isn't directly related to the firewall, I'm having the same problem between two up to date machines, and to be sure, I have disabled the firewall on both. however, If i connect using the connect to server dialogue, I get through just fine. I believe it could be a dns resolution problem.
strike that.
Just tested, check in advanced network settings, and if you have any wins servers listed, remove them.
krb5kdc needs to be allowed to accept connections, for me it popped up in little snitch when it was authenticating.
