Connect to 5 GhZ Band on Cisco E3000 (with Macbook Pro)

Hi,
I just recently bought the Cisco E3000 and I set it up and such and everything works great (set-up ran through my computer).  The only problem I have is that my own macbook pro won't connect to the 5 Ghz band and I don't know how to make it connect to it.  My brother's old macbook and new macbook connect fine to the 5 Ghz.  And my parent's older PC laptops connect to the 2.4 Ghz band.   I googled this problem and I saw that other people tried to assign a different name to the 5 Ghz band and then to assign the computer's preference to that but I don't know how to create a unique name for each band.  
Please help me!!  Thanks a ton!!!  Any help would be appreciated!!

Which network adapter you are using on your Mac computer....?
Make sure that the adapter you are using on your Mac computer should 5Ghz network.If it support then,you can try by changing the wireles channel on the router.To change the channel or the network name on the router,open the Cisco Connect software and go to Advance settings,there you can open the setup page of the router and make the required changes.

  • Airport not maintaining internet connection on my D-link router with Macbook Pro 5.5 with Snow leopard

    Airport keeps throwing me out of internet connection on my D-link router with Macbook Pro 5.5 with Snow leopard. Pls if anyone has a solution to this then let me know

    I'm using my PC notebook because connecting with my iMac is IMPOSSIBLE!!! If I get connected at all, it's worse than dial-up speed.
    We are wireless via a D-Link DIR-625 (new) -- but was having some problems before with a netgear. Problem much worse now. My computers are not the primary computers. My sister gets that coin toss. She is a PC user. I share with her using WPA2. When the iMac "wakes" the signal bands are strong, but when I go to a page I lose all signal strength. And several times a day I get a message indicating an error joining the network -- arghhhhh -- HELP!
    Is the problem with D-Link or Mac? Thanks for any help.

    Hello chrispyw,
    If your content is still being displayed incorrectly, I would check the resolution setting for the built in display with this article:
    OS X Yosemite: Adjust your display’s resolution
    If it keeps happening whenever you use AirPlay then I would use this section of the following article to reset the display system:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,

    I connected to home share on my ipad iphone and macbook pro now it's asking me to turn on home share on the apple tv but I have no other remote, any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If home sharing isn't enabled on the Apple TV, you will need the aluminium remote that came with it to do so.

    i have samsung corby gts3653 mobile and need to connect internet to mac through it but it doesn't have wifi and pcsuite for mac and how could i able to connect it, through gprs? GPRS is active in mobile but unable to link it with macbook pro(using lion os) can any one reply.

    Until the MacBook Air was released and supported in 10.5, the Mac did not consider USB to be a valid Networking Protocol. So set the Mac with USB solutions aside.
    To connect computer-to-computer, you typically need to be using an Ethernet crossover cable. Assigning the same address to two Ethernet devices is never the solution -- it gives a Network Conflict, just as you said.
    If your Windows box has some mechanism for Sharing its WiFi connection over Ethernet, you would have to follow its rules. Whether that means Manually assigning an Ethernet Address in the same range or the PC will provide the Address, I do not know.
    Best success may be running an Ethernet cable to your Wired/Wireless Base Station, or using a "gaming adapter" (Ethernet-to-Wireless no drivers required) connected to the Mac's Ethernet port to give it WiFi access. What is your Base Station {Cable, DSL, FIOS, Other} ? Ethernet cables can be up to 100 meters (an American Football Field). Often the Base Station can be moved closer for more convenience.

  • I cant connect my new wimax usb stick bm328 on my macbook pro. please help me

    i cant connect my new wimax usb stick bm328 on my macbook pro. please help me

    The Hardware Test detected a RAM problem.  Take out the chips and make certain that the connections are clean and reinstall them.  Make certain that they are well seated. 
    If the problem occurs again, test with one chip at a time.  Also swap bays if necessary.
    Please indicate if you have installed new RAM and if so what brand and the specifications.
    Ciao.

  • Does 'Network Connect' work with MacBook Pro?

    My safari unexpectedly quits when attempting to log into my company's VPN.
    - I log into our VPN website and the connection begins to initialize
    - with my MacBook, Safari (2.0.3) unexpectedly quits
    - with my PowerBook, 'Network Connect' automatically starts and the VPN connection completes without any problem
    Does 'Network Connect' work with MacBook Pro? Any ideas?

    Resolved. MacBook Pro was having trouble dowloading the 'Network Connect' application when I logged into my VPN client for the first time. I copied it from my PowerBook G4 over to the appropriate folder and it now works perfectly.

    You could try updating your apple TV and then restarting it. Bit of a guess.
