Connect to two routers at same time?

I connect to internet throught router #1
Set up time capsule as stand alone (i.e. did not join network on router #1).  Let's call time capsule router #2
When I look at my wifi, I have to join router #1 and get internet access, and no access to files on time capsule OR join router #2 with access to files, but no internet access.
Any way to join both networks (routers) at the same time?
I know, I could set up time capsule to join the netwrk on router #1, but as stand alone, file transfer is faster.
Thanks.

It is not possible for the AirPort networking feature of your Mac to be connected to two wifi networks simultaneously.
If you're going to use the Time Capsule for backup only, you're probably better off buying a FireWire hard drive since that will be much faster than any wifi-based backup device.
Alternatively, connect your Time Capsule to "router #1" with an ethernet cable and then you can use it both for your wifi connection and backups.
If you don't need to use "router #1" then just use the Time Capsule - it's a very good router and wifi hub.

  • Can psc2510 work connected and wireless at the same time?

    My PSC2510 all-in-one is connected to my desktop the old-fashioned way.  Can I get my laptop to print wirelessly from the same printer?

    I'm pretty sure that USB and wireless connections can work at the same time on this printer. Just make sure the same PC is not connected by both USB and wireless. The software will get "confused" as to which way to communicate with the printer.

  • Can you connect 2 iPods at the SAME TIME to iTunes?

    I have a HUGE music library and I have 2 60 Gb iPods. I manage them manually. I'd like to connect them BOTH, AT THE SAME TIME , to make it easier to make sure they have totally different songs on each of them, and remembering is out of the question :-}. I would have to connect them both simultaneously, and be able to drag songs to either of them. Can this be done without problems?

  • RV042 VPN Client Access not able to connect two users at same time

    I have a RV042 and have set it up for VPN Client access using the QuickVPN client to connect my remote users. I discovered today that I cannot have two users connect in at the same time. Both users are in the same remote office. They can connect individually with no problem but if one is connected and the other tries connect also the second user gets a message the gateway is not responding. They are both running WinXPPRo SP3. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Were your QuickVPN clients behind a firewall router of some sort? For multiple QuickVPN clients to be able to connect to the remote RV042 at the same time, the local firewall router must have VPN Passthrough correctly implemented. You could try using a RV042 as the firewall router for your QuickVPN clients and you should be able to maintain 2 tunnels at the same time to the remote RV042.

  • Connect two ipods at same time?

    I have a fortunate problem/question. My son got a nano ipod and I got a 30MB ipod. We both would like to charge them and get running. Can you connect both at the same time? I have two USB ports and could physically do it. I know that you can use multiple units with a single computer, but there is nothing about charging them at the same time in the documentation.
    Thanks

    I've had 3 ipods connected at the same time. They all show up under Devices.

  • Multiple Users Connected to Airport Disk at Same Time

    It used to be that I could have multiple user accounts on my MBP connected at the same time to my AirPort Extreme Base Station (802.11n). Now, every time I switch users, I have to reconnect to the AEBS, which in turn seems to disconnect the other user. File Sharing is set up to allow connections via the AEBS password, which always worked fine in the past.
    I'm not sure what has changed in my setup, other than installing Snow Leopard (which I don't assume changed anything in this regard).
    Any ideas will be most appreciated.

    Sorry no one has answered this question. I have the exact problem. I have two user accounts on my MBP. I selected connecting AEBS via AEBS password, too. I can connect with one account and see everything on the disk. When I switch to the other account, it sees the disk but nothing on it. If I disconnect from the disk in that account and then reconnect to the disk, the second account sees everything on the disk. Switching back to the first account, it now can see nothing on the disk and the disk emblem has an icon on it which indicates no access. Clicking on the disk tells me I have no access privileges for the disk. I can then do the same as I did on the second account - use the disconnect button, reconnect, and then all files appear. Of course, when going back to the second account, can no longer access the information. I can do this all day switching back and forth, disconnecting and reconnecting. Obviously, this is not the way it is suppose to work.
    I am using snow leopard also.
    I have tried setting the disk up by using accounts - created two user accounts and passwords In the Airport Utility application. I can access the disk but nothing shows up on it. I suppose I could have created stuff on it and it would not have been available to the other account. Still, not the way I want to use it. I think I tried using the disk password method also and I think it reacted just like the user account issue or maybe the other---neither will keep both users logged in and have access to whatever is on the disk - which is how I want to use it.
    I add this reply in hopes that someone will read both accounts and give us both an answer. OR, if the original poster now has the answer, please provide!!!

  • Photoshop CS6 - 'Two computers at same time' question

    Hi guys.
    I've tried searching for this question before but I couldn't find a definitive answer to it in the threads (maybe that's for a reason!).  Now, clearly the TOS stipulate about using PS on one computer at a time.  I understand that, as otherwise you could give a copy to a friend, for example.  However, for work purposes it would be helpful for me to have the program open on two of my computers here in my household at the same time; of course I'd only be actively at one computer at any given moment so not technically using the other, but it would be open.  It would also be using the same internet connection because of this (just in case that's a 'thing' worth mentioning).
    My question is really this: Is the 'one computer' requirement actively enforced via the software (a little like the monthly (or so?) online validation of the software serial), or is it more of a 'Please just don't do this' type of deal?  I can ensure people my reasons are legitimate but I don't want to risk installing again in case I'm 'flagged' and lose access to expensive software that I can ill afford to replace.
    Many thanks for any and all answers.

    ave the program open on two of my computers here in my household at the same time; of course I'd only be actively at one computer at any given moment so not technically using the other, but it would be open.
    My experience with this is that nothing deactivates but, upon launching the second copy on the same network, a window appears saying that two copies have been launched and the first copy should first be closed if you wish to continue using the second copy.
    So I've never been able to run the software on two computers simutaneously on the same network.

  • Using multi-threading: Setting a VI to be used for two sequences at same time

    I have two sequences running as two different threads. This is supposed to be in parallel but both sequences access the same VI, then they're not executing as parallel because one sequence use this VI then liberates it and the other sequence use it, and so on consecutively until both sequences finish. This is not what I want.
    How can I do to set this VI with any kind of property or something that can be accessed for both sequences at the same time?
    Thanks,

    Hi Margarita, you can set a VI to be reentrant (under VI Setup»Execution Options from TestStand, this function can also be used from LabVIEW) . Now depending on the king of VI you are using this can be something safe or can cause trouble. If the VI needs to keep information (for example a Functional Global Variable) or it is handling Hardware it can give you errors (for example trying to access the same DAQ at the same time from different task.
    If you need more information can you tell us what does this VI does?

    Hi friend,
    Yes it is possible for configuration go to NACE and select the Procedure and then the relevant output condition and in details you will find something called Print option and there you have different options for the print based on user, sales organsation etc.
    Hope the answer will help you.

  • Operating two Vis at same time

    First time posting here on NI, need some help with setting up a Labview program. A little background so you know what we are attempting to do and the level of skills involved in it. I'm a undergrad research assistant and I have never used labview before until I started on this project and just have a basic understand of the program now. All the programs involved in this were written before I started on the project by other undergrad and grad students. So any answers will probably have to be dumbed down to a noobs level for me. Here is our problem : 
    We have two VIs that we are having to run at the same time. The First VI is a program that we use to run a automated arm/probe. It is setup to run manually by using the arrow keys on the keyboard or we have a grid system setup on our test box and can tell it were to travel too by inputting the x y cords into the program. The second VI is a safety loop, the testing we are doing is dealing with EM fields and detection of them. We have equipment that generates the field inside the test box but we can not allow it to get over a certain watts level. The second program was designed to detect when we reached this level and turn the system off for safety. Both of the programs work just fine. 
    So here is the problem, we can not run them at the same time which is an issue. Anytime they try and run them together the system bogs down then crashes or they just fail to load and run at the same time.
    Here is the solution I would like to try and find. What is the best, fastest and simplest way to link both of this programs as a single VI that wouldn't take a lot of programming and knowledge. Basically the programming team that made the VIs is gone now. If needed I an post the VIs. Thanks for any help or input 

    I would guess that your programs are not programmed very efficiently and are running with what are known as greedy loops. That is, the VIs have a loop in them but don't provide any means for LabVIEW to switch between tasks. One, or both, are starving the CPU which causes your execution issues. Even some as simple as adding a Wait(0) to the loop will help to prevent greedy loops from occuring. Additionally, they could have issues with maintaining memory and do things like allowing arrays to grow infinitely large. Without seeing the code though it will be difficult to give you specific advice.

  • Delivering two videos at same time

    I am trying to simulate a software-instructional classroom by showing two (720x480) videos at the same time. One video showing the instructor in the classroom and the other of the instructor's computer screen.
    The first video (of the classroom) would be shot using standard DV footage shot with a Sony PD 170.
    The second "video" (screen capture video) would be captured using software such as SnapZ Pro, Camtasia, or similar software. It is important that this "video" be as large as possible to show the detail of the software.
    If displaying two (720 x480) videos at the same time is not possible, does anyone have suggestions for producing a full size screen capture video (larger than 720x480) with the ability to place the (720x480) instructor video in a corner of the screen capture video?
    Is this possible with FCP or any other application?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I came up with an interesting workflow for this.
    There are three challenges:
    1. SnapZ will create files that QT/FCP will interpret as 10fps no mater what you do. I don't know if this has been fixed yet. This post describes the workaround and this post describes the underlying reasons for the issue.
    2. using a display resolution higher than 720x480 will allow you to zoom into areas of the interface to show detail, but will require rendering when combining with SD footage in an SD sequence.
    3. Even if you use snapZ to record a 720x480 display, the 10fps issue and format difference may still require lots of rendering.
    Sooooo, here's what I did:
    I recorded snapZ movies at "full" display resolution. This allowed me to do some zooms in post. You can also zoom in real time with a bit of rehearsal by using the ctrl-scroll ball trick.
    I planned to edit the screen caps in two stages, first to cut for timing at full-res, and second to combine with SD footage and add the zooms and other graphics.
    I created sequences native to the full-res clips' format using the "make multiclip sequence" command.
    I fixed the frame rate by placing each one into a sequence at full resolution, but with the correct frame rate, then re-exporting to new quicktimes. You may find it helpful to create a sequence preset with these settings. Your list of sequence presets will be the same list of formats you can choose for a batch export.
    Once I had cut for timing in a full-res sequence, I took the contents and pasted them into an SD sequence, using paste attributes to scale them all down to fit. Now I had the hi-res clips in an SD sequence that I could zoom into without them just looking like blurry crud.
    Alternatively, there are other hardware solutions you can use to get HD video out of the computer, but you'll need another computer or recording device to capture it. AJA, Blackmagic, and Matrox have capture cards that can output your desktop as HD video. You can also just get a simple DVI to HDMI adapter, but all of these solutions lack the simplicity of SnapZ's one-system-no-recorder setup. SnapZ also allowed me to record more than 2 tracks of audio, in my case the "live" voiceover and the stereo output of the music software we were demoing.
    One more option to avoid rendering during cutting if you have to mix formats with the SnapZ workflow is to create DV proxy footage of the hi-res, then reconnect to the HD at the end. However, this requires the fame rates to match, and assigning matching timecode and reel, if applicable, after re-importing to FCP and before reconnecting.
    Hope this helps, or at least made some interesting reading, if you made it this far.

  • Recording two tracks at same time

    I want to record guitar on one track and vocal on another at the same time. At the moment I have two ways this might work: I have an Apogee Jam interface for the guitar and A Dual Tube audio inferface for the mic. Or, theoretically, I could plug the guitar into one of the two instrument/XLR inputs on the Dual Tube. When I use option one, with the two different interfaces (Jam and Dual)  Logic Audio preferences will only let me choose one "device"  as input. Not both.  If I use just the Dual Tube with Guitar and mic plugged in to the L and R inputs, they go to the same track, since the Dual is seen as one single Input device.  I cant even arm a second track for recording.  The sound isn't bad, but I can't mix the tracks independently of each other.  Any ideas how to come up with two separate tracks at the same time, or do I have to simply record the Guitar first and add vocals later? THat's what I've always done, but wanted a "live" feel this time. I just switched from Logic Express to Logic Pro X.   Thanks in advance for any help!

    You can create an aggregate device for a couple of different interfaces in the Audio MIDI Setup OS utility and select that in Logic's Preferences/Devices tab - I've never had to do it myself, so I couldn't be sure it works well with all devices.
    It isn't me, but if it were I'd want to record them separately anyway, just for concentration on performance of each element, that's the difference between making good audio and making something that sounds like a proper record, no matter how simple or complex the music is.

  • Two logins at same time

    Somehow I ended up with what looks like two identical logins at the same time. The most obvious symptom is that there are two duplicate logout, shut down, restart, and force quit lines in the apple menu. I tried doing those things, but as soon as I go back in, both come back.
    Please advise how to kill the second login.
