Connecting to mass storage and printers on another router

I have my wireless router connected to another router that router is connected to the internet. My wireless connection works fine getting to the internet, but I am unable to see the other items connected to the first router. This would be my network printer and mass storage. What can I do?

Windows uses a protocol called SMB to connect to network shares. You will need to route ports 139, 445, and possibly 137 between the 2 networks. Unless you have a specific reason I would dump the non-wireless router. Having 2 routers is asking for problems and making your network overly complicated.

BB 9360 Curve don´t connect the mass storage to my usb car audio system.

Hello:
I´ve got a BB 9360 curve. There is no problem when i connect to my PC, It questions if i want connect mass storage, charge, etc...
But when i connect it to my USB car audio system, it connects automatically to charge without any message or option to connect to mass storage, and i can not access to my music stored in the memory card.
Waiting your answers, so many thanks to all.

Hello xaxu and welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
Thanks for your question on Mass Storage mode.
Currently, Mass Storage mode is supported when the BlackBerry® smartphone is connected to a Windows® or Mac® based computer system.
Hope this answers your question.
Thanks!

IPOD seen as two drives(USB Mass Storage & and Dell USB )

My IPOD classic has not worked properly since I updated my OS to Windows XP. At first the IPOD was seen as two different USB controllers (Apple USB Driver, and a USB Mass Storage Device) I've gone through every troubleshooting article on the apple website. After downloading a hotfix, my computer recognizes the IPOD as an IPOD but it doesn't connect to itunes long enough for me to restore it. It automatically disconnects after being plugged into the computer. If anybody can help, please, please please let me know.
Thanks.

I just purchased an ipod classic 120GB and after downloading itunes to the computer I can no longer use my DVD/CD drive as the ipod is using that drive now, which is the E drive on my computer. I noticed that if I uninstall itunes I get to use my DVD/CD drive again. I do not know what next to try either. So my ipod is seen as a mass storage device, I need help too, can anyone help?

Samsung A900 USB mass storage and Tiger

I just got a Samsung A900 phone, when I connect with USB as mass storage device, the phone is mounted write protected in 10.4.3. In 10.3.9, it mounts as a writeable drive.

Hi there. I just bought a Samsung A900 and figured out how to use the phone as a USB Mass storage device:
My setup is a PowerBook G4 with 10.4.6 all updates (including the latest Security Updates and iLife '06 updates).
1. Plug the USB cable into the phone, and your computer.
2. The phone should say "USB Cable connected" on the main screen. If it doesn't, turn the phone off, and back on again with the cable plugged in.
3. Press the Menu button
4. Go to Tools
5. Go to Mass Storage
6. Select "Connect to PC."
You will not be able to receive phone calls while the phone is in USB Mass Storage mode.
A new volume should appear in the OS X Finder as "Untitled."
You have access to the same folders as with a Bluetooth connection.
Unfortunately, this also means that it is not a solution to get custom ring tones from an MP3 you own.
I tried looking in Terminal for any hidden folders, and I can't find any. I honestly think a firmware update/hack is needed to enable this on the phone.
Hope this helps.

Can i use my time capsule as wireless storage and not as a router too?

hi there i just bought my self a time capsule its a 500gb one as i do not need the 1tb+ storage.
i play a lot of online games and have a fast router so i do not want the time capsule for its router capabilitys i only want to use it as a wireless storage unit is this possible to do?
if not i can connect a usb storage to my current router and use that as my wireless storage if so where is the best place to sell this time capsule?

You simply bridge the TC and plug it into the existing router.. it will then provide network storage..
Can connect either via the existing router or the TC.. if you set up wireless correctly.. if it is a gen1 you can set to 5ghz only.. that will keep it from interferring with the existing router.

IPod Classic, 80GB won't sync but shows as Mass Storage and even shows it as " names iPod"?

A few years ago, I was given an iPod Classic 80GB for Christmas, but due to the age of my PC at the time (steam powered almost), I couldn't connect it to iTunes. I used my friends iTunes to put music on it. A few years down the line I now have my own laptop and an extensive music library on my iTunes. I tried to connect it to Sync today for the first time, and it won't.
The laptop knows it's there as it comes up as a device. When I click it, I can find "<names> iPod" in the devices hardware. When I open iTunes, it allows me to Scan and Fix. The iPod charges fine, connects and plays music that's already on it. However, when I open File in iTunes, the command "Sync iPod" is not highlighted, and therefore, unclickable.
In short -
iPod does everything it should, except Sync with my iTunes.
Any help would be very much appriciated.
My laptop is running Windows 7 and the latest iTunes.

Try the iPod Hard Reset -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, then release the button
Select your preferred language.
This wont delete or erase any song/data on your iPod Classic.
See this Apple Support Article on 5Rs

If the above doesn't work, perhaps you should post it in the iTunes community forum.

Using WRT54G and WET11 with another router as the Gateway

I have a wired network in the house with access to the Internet through a router on the 2nd floor. I connect a ReplayTV DVR in the basement to the network with a Cat5 cable running across the floor between the DVR and a switch. I'd like to replace that with a wireless solution.
I have at my disposal one WET11 bridge and two WRT54G routers. Neither of those routers is the one connecting the house to the cable modem. Is there a way I can connect one of the WRT54G routers to a switch in the basement and have it talk to the WET11 connected to the DVR on the other side of the basement?

I made some progress, but then ran into a couple of snags. I'm not routing with the WRT54G so I connect it to a switch through one of the 4 ports that is not the one labeled Internet.The network looks like this:
Cable Modem --> Netgear Router --> Switch --> WRT54G(port 1)
Laptop --> WRT54G(port 4)
With that cable arrangement I was able to log in to the WRT54G's administration page from my laptop, give the WRT54G a name and change it's IP address to 192.168.1.251. I left the subnet as 255.255.255.0.I also started to configure some other settings, but I did not write them down. I was able to access the Internet from the laptop at that time.
I was also able to move the cable going from the laptop to port 4 on the WRT54G with the WET11 Ethernet Bridge and could access the Internet. And, I was able to remove the bridge, turn on the laptop's wireless capability and access the Internet through a wireless connection to the WRT54G.
I tried to access the WRT54G's admin page wirelessly, but was not able to get to the login screen. I ran out of time and set everything aside for a week. When I got back to it, I was unable to access the WRT54G's loging screen. I can still connect the laptop to port 4 on the WRT54G and reach the Internet, but I cannot do so using the bridge.
Is there some tool I can use to determine the IP address of the WRT54G? I tried resetting (using the button on the back), and I tried several IP addresses in addition to the one I'm pretty sure I used. I'm assuming that I'm trying to log in using the wrong IP address.
I have a second WRT54G that I can still log on to. However, I don't want to do anything with it until I understand what I did wrong with the first one. (Both of them are version 6.)
Another snag is that I was never able to get the setup program to find the WET11. It claimed that it couldn't find the one I had plugged into the laptop's Ethernet port, even though I was able to connect to the Internet using that bridge to the WRT54G. However, that does not work anymore.
Pointers as to what went wrong would be most appreciated.
Thanks.

Getting error and connection problems with iPad and DLink DI-634M router

We're seeing spotty connectivity from our iPad - sometimes it works fine, other times it can't get to any websites. Looking at our wireless router logs, I found a bunch of messages like this for the iPad's address:
"Blocked incoming TCP packet from 192.168.0.140:52023 to 74.125.0.222:80 with unexpected acknowledgement 3307518865 (expected 3307530074 to 3307595610)"
What does this indicate and how can I fix it?
Searching a bit, I found recommendations to disable SPI on the router's firewall, but I don't see any option for doing that on the DI-634M's admin pages.
Any help appreciated - thanks.

Nokia C5-03 and Mac OSX Lion - Problems copying files to phone in Mass Storage mode

Whenever I try to load more than one file from my iMac (early 2008, OSX Lion 10.7.2) to my new Nokia C5-03 in Mass Storage mode —since the files are MP3s and Multimedia Transfer doesn’t seem to work at all, I keep on getting asked which transfer mode I want to activate for several times, I always choose Mass Storage, and then the first file starts copying, but when it ends with the first one I have to wait for ±30s only to get asked the same again and again until the second file starts copying, and so on.
It’s driving me crazy, I’ve tried setting in the USB connectivity options not to ask me for the mode when I connect the phone, but it doesn’t work either. It still goes very slow and a lot of “USB Mass Storage transfer mode activated” messages appear.
I’ve tested it with a friend’s C5-03 and it’s still the same, but when connecting them to a Windows computer everything goes great and fast. Has somebody had this problem before? Is there a solution to this? I don’t know if this is the correct board to post this, sorry if it’s not.
Thanks in advance.
PS: Sorry if there are any mistakes or my English sounds weird, i’m Spanish.

KDE 4.2 and USB Mass Storage , does not write data until unmounted

Hi,
I have a Nokia phone that I connect for USB mass storage, and KDE 4.2.2 does not seem to write the data to the device until I unmount.
Is there a way to force the write so it happens right away? It's annoying because I can't see any progress when it copies the data at unmount.
Later,
Snorkel

That's kinda the way linux does things, not specifically a KDE issue. It's so that the system only has to write out to the media only once, even if you separately add/delete/move 50 different files.
I think you can run 'sync' and that will flush all the file system buffers to disk.

Mass storage issues (does not play in car on home stereo) after upgrading to V4.5

I am having issues with Mass Storage after upgrading my 8130 to V4.5. I can no longe hook the device to my home stereo or car stereo to play music. My computer does read the device. It is not my media card. I still have my old blackberry: the card shows up on both phones and computers. It is not my cables as they work with my old phone. I have also done all the obvious things like pull the battery and play with the media card setting
This guy had the same issue though i never saw resolution:
Any idea is appreciated! After upgrading the device software to version 4.5 earlier this week (BlackBerry 8800 with v4.5.0.69 (platform 2.7.0.72)) as proposed by T-Mobile and RIM Germany something has changed with the behaviour when connecting via USB as a mass storage device:
Using a micro-SD card with 2 GB for some months now as a storage for MP3-Files which can be played with my Blue&Me system in my car. This is some kind of Microsoft Windows mobile platform (Automotive) providing playback of MP3-files etc connected via USB. This was never a problem with the previous software. It behaved as it should. Here is an example of what it previously did (taken from http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=BlackBerryDesktopSoftware&thread.id=3...):
"On your Blackberry device, you may or may not first see a message about insufficient current. It just means you can't charge your Blackberry with that PC USB port. Hit the escape key once (on your Blackberry device). You will be prompted a question : do you want to activate USB Mass Storage Mode. You can answer YES or NO. Answer YES."
The message about insufficient current is important here because the Blue&Me system does not provide the current as proposed by USB-standards. Anyway after clicking this message/warning away the Blue&Me would recognize the mass storage and start playback.
After upgrading to v4.5 there is no warning about current any more and the mass storage can't be recognized. I've checked both components: The B&M works fine with any other USB-devices connected, and the BB works fine with Windows after connecting via USB (presumably because there is enough current!). All standard settings in Options/Media card for enabling mass storage have been tested but without success.
Hopefully someone whose genius far exceeds mine will help me with this. Thank You.

I have exactly the same issue with my car stereo equiped with USB and my 8130 device. OS 4.3 works fine (and displays the "insuficcient current" message) and after upgrading to 4.5 mass storage mode not works anymore. And of course it works with regular desktop/notebook computers. I've made many experiments with different storage cards (now I use SDHC 8G from SanDisk). The card works fine if I attach it through card reader in my car, it even see multiple drives which cardreader creates.
Even more I wrote the small blackberry application in java (i'am professional programmer) and ordered BB keys for $20 to deploy it to device. The program uses the RIM api call Device.requestStorageMode() which in my opinion should turn on storage mode of device. But the result was the same - car audio don't see the mass storage with OS 4.5.
Interesting fact that in OS 4.3 the message about "insufficient current" appears BUT the device CHARGES via this USB without a problem. The same case with OS 4.5 - charging device is possible.
Also, I can't switch to OS 4.3 because it have the serious problem with bluethooth connections - it suddenly lost my handsfree link and its very bad if I get incomming call during driving and my handsfree not work.
Forgot to mention - now I have the OS 4.5.0.127

No Mass Storage/Media Transfer for OS X users...

Yesterday i purchased Nokia 808 PureView
I'm really happy to have this piece of pure technology everyday ( from now on) with me
But i am OS X user. And guess what? My 808 with Belle FP1 won't connect to my mac mini in mass storage or media transfer modes.
When i try to connect in mass storage phone becomes unresponsive ( removing battery is the only fix i know at the moment to reboot it ) Is there any other way i can reboot Nokia 808?
in media transfer nothing happens..
In windows 7 i did not experience this issues even though i launch it on the same mac
Screenshot with info about my system is attached.
P.S. I hope Media Transfer will work again on OS X soon
With Nokia N8, X7, 700 or 603 on Belle i did not have any troubles with mass storage mode on my mac mini.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Now from 5 attempts i have mass storage 5 times.
Thank you for your time For me issue is solved.
I hope that this topic will be useful for someone.

Help...Mass storage doesn't appear to work

Hi,
Just recently updated my 8900 last night where it asked to do a back-up and then did what it needed to do. didn't appear to be a problem.. until I hooked it up today.
To make a long story short.. Now when I hook it up to my USB I am no longer prompted to go into Mass storage Mode...Which is what I want...cause now it doesn't allow me to transfer files from my PC using file explorer like it use to.
My mass storage settings appear to be alright, I tried disabling it and enabling a couple times with no change.
Any advice out there on how to fix this?
Thank you.

Hello,
I am having something of the same problem. About two months ago my phone started to mess up (changing call profiles on it's own, going crazy on re-notifying (?) facebook and email notifications, etc) So I took it into Vodafone (my carrier) and they tried to just update the software, but it wasn't connecting properly, so it was sent away for repairs. It came back and all things seem to be a go - a few changes like the way the icons look on the main screen and that the lock button on top of the phone only locks the keyboard and not the whole phone anymore are not a problem, but the biggest is that I really can't connect to mass storage.
I have media card support: on
Mass Storage Mode Support: On
Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode when connected: prompt
I followed all the advice from this post: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Desktop-Software/HOWTO-use-your-blackberry-as-a-US...
And still nothing is working. I have just had the phone connected to the computer for a while and was charging when all of a sudden I got a message saying that because of a problem with the USB hub, my settings on the computer, etc, it couldn't charge.
Could this be a problem related to the software updates that were done when I sent the computer away for repairs? Any ideas for how to get it to work again?
Thanks,

5800 files deleted from mem card in mass storage -...

I have connected my phone via USB mass storage and deleted some MP3s
however
there is no extra free space showing on the phone (in File Manager)
I had this problem before and it somehow fixed it self after a reboot/sync, but this time it isn't working.
I reallly can't face the hassle of soft/hard reset/card format - life is too short!
Has anyone else fixed this problem

Hi,
I had the same concern in my N96. All my messages were deleted. This happened thrice with me. I had activated the silent profile & was listening to music in the handset, I received a message & the handset restarted. then all the messages in the handset were deleted. I had around 1300 messages. I tried a lot to retrieve those messages, but couldn't find any solution. I guess you cannot retrieve the deleted messages.

N96 mass storage problem

Hi my friends
I have nokia n96 (RM-247) not branded and I experienced some problems after I install the new firmware 30.033. When I connect the phone in mass storage mode I am receiving the following message: Exception Processing Message c0000013 Parameters 75b6bf7c 4 75b6f7c 75b6bf7c with options Cancel, Try Again, Continue. I tried all of them but after few seconds the message appears again. I tried this on several computers all of them using windows xp, still the same. When I connect the phone in PC Suite then everything is OK. Any solutions??? Thanks in advance!

Sounds like something has messed up somewhere and created a memory problem
Try taking your memory card out then connecting in mass storage, does the problem persist,
If it does then try the reset factory settings, and see if that helps,
If that doesn't work then go for a format of the mass memory followed by a
hard reset (remember to back up all of your data first)
To format the mass memory, tools, file manager ,E:Mass Memory, options, format
To hard reset.
1. Switch off the phone.
2. Hold down the following three buttons: Green (the call answer button), * button, and '3' button.
3. While holding these buttons, hold the power button for a second to switch on the phone.
4. Release when the phone shows the nokia hands logo or shows other signs of life like the language selection screen.
It may take a few attempts and very flexible fingers.
