Connecting to wifi network - Measure connection time

Hi
I'm connecting to WiFi network. How can I measure the connection time? I mean, I need to get the time the connection takes.
I tried to use the following events (Of WMI):
MSNdis_StatusDot11AssociationStart
MSNdis_StatusDot11AssociationCompletion
But the second event didn't work. I mean, I get the info when the connection started but didn't get any info when the connection completed.
Can you please help?
Regards,
Nadeem Bader

Why do I have to search for a wifi network most every time I use the internet?

Why do I have to search for a wifi network almost every time I use the internet?
We have Cox internet on a wireless router.
It doesn't seem to be able to hold the wireless connection.....even a couple hours.
The router sits on the desk next to the computer.
Thanks for any suggestions you have.

I don't have any trouble connecting to the internet once I choose our network from the choices.
The computer just can't remember it.

Modify/delete a wifi network created in Time Capsule.

Hello, I created some wifi networks with Time Capsule. Now I want to eliminate some of them in order to keep only 2 or 3 "on air"; how can I do it? My Airport Utility is updated; v. 6.3.2

You cannot create multiple wifi networks.. you can create 2.. one for 2.4ghz and one for 5ghz. (Guest network I guess is also possible).. once you change the name of the network the previous ones no longer exist.
If you have a long list of wireless names in your computer.. delete them from your computer. They are simply history and no longer current.
Tesserax has info for deleting all the old names that are stored on your computer to fix connection after wake from sleep issues.

Extending a wifi network with a time capsule

My broadband router (BT) can only go in my office and is the same room that my iMac is located.
Is there any way that I can connect my Time Capsule to either my BT wireless router or my iMac via WiFi and us the Time Capsule as another wifi base station.
Idelaly I want the Time Capsule in the hallway so that I can connect via WiFo from my living room.
Currently the living room is too far from my office to connect to my BT router via WiFi.

Is there any way that I can connect my Time Capsule to either my BT wireless router or my iMac via WiFi and us the Time Capsule as another wifi base station.
Unfortunately, no...unless you want to connect the Time Capsule to the BT router using a wired Ethernet connection or by using Ethernet over Powerline (EOP) adapters.
You need two Apple routers to be able to "extend" using wireless only......since this feature only works among Apple wireless routers.
If you connected an Apple router to the BT router using a wired Ethernet connection and configured the Apple router to "create a wireless network", then you could use the Time Capsule to "extend" that same network using wireless only.

How do i connect to a wifi network after my time capsule has completed its auto setup.

Let me start by saying I contract overseas currently in Afghanistan. Ok so I have over 10 networks in my area and can not connect to a router with ethernet cable. When it does the auto setup it finds the network sometimes but doesn't stay up long enough for me to enter my password. I just dont know how or where to manually set up my network. I also dont know what information i need. I dont have access to any of the routers so this might not even be possible.
Thanks Dan

Unfortunately, the Time Capsule, and AirPort Extreme do require an Ethernet connection when they are connected to a 3rd party wireless network.
It is a bit goofy....and I don't know if it will work in your particular situation.....but here is what I do when am traveling and I want to set up a private wireless network in my room......and the hotel only provides a wireless connection. I travel with an AirPort Express and another AirPort router....two devices.
One AirPort Express is configured to "Join a wireless network", so it receives the wireless signal from the hotel. That same Express then feeds an Ethernet signal from its LAN port to the WAN port on another AirPort router, which is set up to "create a wireless network".
So, I can set up my own private network in the room and connect from multiple devices....wireless or wired...and only pay for one connection.

TS1398 Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.2 my phone will not auto-connect to the home WiFi network.

I upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2 and now my phone will not auto-connect to the home wifi network. Each time I leave and return to within range of the network I have to remember to manually connect, otherwise it continues to use 4G for data. The credentials are saved (all I have to do is tap it to connect) but just won't happen automatically any more.
Is anyone else seeing this problem?

Tried the reset multiple times. No go. Before the IOS 7.0,2 update my devices were connecting to home WIFI eventually.

Cannot print or scan with USB printer over wifi from airport express / time capsule wifi

Hi everybody,
I have recently set up time capsule connected to the router from the telephone company but created a new wifi network for the time machine to better work. Now I have bought an airport express to be able to use my USB printer over the WIFI network. I have to laptops, the printing works fine over the mac book air but not over the macbook pro. On top of that I cannot scan with either of the devices.
I have scanned most of the information out there but this issue seems not to be addressed properly anywhere. Advices given do always repeat itself but no solution worked for me.
Now I have plugged the usb from the printer directly back into mac book pro and the problem seems to persist here too. The message I receive everywhere is this one:
The software for the printer was installed incorrectly.
Would you like it to be repaired?
When I hit the Repair button a notice says 'repairing permissions' but nothing really happens. In the end nothing has been printed.
Resetting the printing systems has not really changed anything either. The problems persist.
This is the screen I get when the printer is directly plugged in through USB:
Result: printer recognised and installed, I cannot print (The software for the printer was installed incorrectly), but I can scan (probably because of the hint ('multifunction')
When I try to install the printer through the network connection (wifi network over time capsule and airport express) I get this image:
Result: printer recognised over bonjour but without multifunction (in other words without scanning), I cannot scan nor print (The software for the printer was installed incorrectly)
As I already mentioned any solution I found online would not work. Now the qustions are:
1) why can't I print? The drivers seem to be there but somehow broken, and I don't know how to repair it
2) why can't I scan over wifi? It sould possible that any function that can be performed over cable should also be able to performable over air, right?
I would very much appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you in advance,
Cris

What's up doc?
HP has not provided "network" drivers to allow advanced features when the the All-in-One is connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.
Therefore, only the printing function is supported when the All-in-One is connected to the Time Capsule's USB port.
If you need advanced features like fax, copy, scan, maintenance etc., you will need to connect over the WiFI network, or connect the All-in-One directly to your computer.

How do I change the name of my wifi network

How do I change the name of my WiFi network name on Time Capsule

Open the airport utility and type in a new name in the wireless tab.

Are LAN ports on Airport Extreme active when used to extend WiFi network?

I am thinking of buying an Airport Extreme to wirelessly extend the dual-band WiFi network from my Time Capsule. In this scenario, with the Extreme configured as a bridge, would I be able to use the LAN ports on the Extreme to join some AV kit to the network?
Thanks ... Simon

Yes

If I connect a time capsule via ethernet to an existing internet connection and use it to create a private wifi network for my wireless devices, will other users on the primary network (not the private wifi one) be able to access my files on my TCapsule?

Like it says in the title basically.
I want to use a time capsule to store my files and backups and access it from my phone and MacBook Air. However I do not want the others in my house who are currently connected to the same wifi/ethernet router to use my connection or my TC hard drives.
I had also been thinking about wirelessly extending the wifi network (a linksys N router) but I guess that will allow everyone to access my Time Capsule?
I hope you guys can help me.
Regards, Guido

......will other users on the primary network (not the private wifi one) be able to access my files on my TCapsule?
No, if you have not provided them with the Time Capsule device password.
Users will be able to "see" the Time Capsule icon under the SHARED heading in the Finder on their Macs, but they will not be able to access the drive or the files.

Same answer as above.

TS1398 I am using the wifi network at home but every time I connect I have to put my password to the network. Is there a way to identify this wifi network on my iPad and once it detects it joins directly without having to put my password?????

I am using the wifi network at home but every time I connect I have to my wifi password. Is there a way to have my wifi network per-identified on my iPad and once it's detected the iPad connects to it without having to put my password again???

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

Is there a way to see and have control over who connects to your time capsule wifi network?

Ok, have this question. Have a time capsule wifi network. Have the latest mountain lion on my mac pro. I know if you go into airport utility, and you click on the picture of my timecapsule it shows what clients are connected to my time capsule aka using my internet etc.
What I want to know, is there somewhere I can go on the mac where I can view who is connected to my time capsule wifi in more detail, see amounts of data they are using, and maybe even boot them off, or ban there computer from the network for a while if need be? Trying to assess what family members are using up all our data, and want to ban the appropriate offenders
Even if Mac doesnt have anythink, if you know any third parties from the app store that have an app that is like a "tap" on the top of your Mac that shows networking details, that would be great too!
Thanks heaps!

Nope.. TC are not burdened with controls.. don't you know..
In fact you will find it hard to find a wireless router on the market that mets your specs.. but there is a great 3rd party firmware.. called gargoyle.. this can be loaded like an official firmware in a NETGEAR WNDR3800 which is a fairly cheap very good solid wireless router.. bridge your TC behind this router running gargoyle and you can set quota for all your family members (kids I imagine). Quota can be set for daily, weekly even hourly.. and you can apply throttles or qos.. none of these controls even exist in the TC.

Using airport time capsule to create an internet connected network from pre existing wifi network

i bought an airport time capsule for college. I bought it to create a network for my dorm room so that I could take the pre existing wifi from the school and make my own mini network that I can hook my other stuff up to. Problem is that I don't have an ethernet hook up in my room so the network would have to be created from a wifi network rather that a ethernet hook up. Is this still possible? Alternate suggestions? I am afraid of either the college network blocking users from communication with other devices via the wifi, or the fact that my printer would be on a huge network for all to screw with.

Is this still possible?
NO, it won't work. Apple only works with apple.
Alternate suggestions?
I am sure your college has rules about not running your own wifi networks.. but anyway.. that is up to you.. the Apple TC cannot turn off 2.4ghz which would be handy.. so the only way to do this following the rules is ethernet. You can run a full network standalone on ethernet. And still use wireless for internet.
If you want to use wireless standalone this is also possible but you need to connect a second wifi USB dongle your Mac so you can have two networks at once.. You can use an express to connect to the college wireless and bridge that to the TC by ethernet.. then use the TC to create your own network.. since you cannot turn off 2.4ghz I guess how long the College IT people take to track you down should be hours. If you could just use 5ghz it would probably be ok.

I created a wireless network with my Time Capsule but would like to connect this network to a WiFi Hotspot for Internet Access

I have created a Wirelss Network at home with the Time Capsule and would like to connect this network to the Internet.
I can't use LAN Cable to connect to it anything becasuse I usually use the WiFi that runs through my building.
Can I connect the Time Capsule to the WiFi hotspot somehow so that all computers on my network have Internet access and if so, what do I need?
I need this done because the computers can only be connected to either the WiFi network or to my Time Capsule Network at any given time.
Or is there a way to be connected to both networks simultaneously?
I have two PC's and two Macs.
Thank you for any support and I apologise for my ignorance. I am not too good with networking.
I have tried the silliest of things like connecting a router to the TC only to then realise that the TC had an inbuilt router.
I tried connecting a USB WiFI adapter to the USB Port on the TC but it doesnt detect it that way apparently.
Please help!

I have a kinda same problem @ https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3531642

My Mac Mini (Mid 2011) doesn't connect to Time Capsule in 5GHz Network. This WiFi Network don't appear in the WiFi list. What's Wrong?

My Mac Mini (Mid 2011) doesn't connect to Time Capsule in 5GHz Network. This WiFi Network don't appear in the WiFi list. What's Wrong?

Oh yes, & 5 GHz doesn't do walls very well at all.
GHz and Network Range
The higher the frequency of a wireless signal, the shorter its range. Thus, 2.4 GHz networks cover a substantially larger range than 5 GHz wireless networks. In particular, the higher frequency wireless signals of 5 GHz networks do not penetrate solid objects nearly as well as do 2.4 GHz signals, limiting their reach inside homes.
