Connecting wirelessly using the USB Port

I recently saw a small device at Best Buy that allows my computer to connect remotely to the internet (via cable modem) using the USB port that costs only $60. Do you know of this and can you comment?

Are you trying to do this because your Ethernet port is broken? Is it a wireless device? Can you link to a product description?

    Thanks Eric for responding.
    I checked and it does not appear in the Applications folder.
    I tried yesterday on an ethernet connection with a download speed of 2 Mbps but, unfortunately the connection died(It happened from the ISP end, which is out of my control) in between after which there was no trace of the download that happened for so long(till the internet connection death). 
    One more serious query which I am unable to understand. If the internet connection, dies in the midst of the download is in progress why is it so that the state does not persist and one has to restart the entire process again. Is there no solution for this?
    I tried so many times and its the same case after some amount of download it vanishes. So many unsuccessful attempts. I am ****** off now. Is it not possible to see Mavericks? Why does different machines of Apple behave differently? Somewhere it goes smoothly and somewhere like my mine. Why did not Apple release a non apple store version? Is this not a bad sign of letting the users struggle when something is being offered for free?
    The reason I asked as whether we can download the .app of Mavericks is that, there are so many applications that I have downloaded web and have installed. All that works fine. Can't we do the same here? You download a copy of Mavericks installer application and upload it for me in Google drive or like online storage places which can be downloaded and used by me? Help me understand.
    Thanks again.

  • HT1386 I have iTunes (up to date) and an iPhone 4s. When I connect it using the USB cable it does not appear in the top right corner. Other devices do and also the cable is fine as it charges and the PC sees it as a device. I've looked online and have no

    I'm new to this and I think I typed a long heading!
    Anyway the issue is I have iTunes and just updated it to the latest. I also have various Apple devices however my iPhone won't sync with iTunes. When I connect it using the USB cable it does not appear in the top right corner as does other devices. The cable is fine as it charges and also my PC sees the device. However it does not appear in iTunes so I can't sync music to it.
    I've searched the web but all asume iTunes can see the device.
    Help!?

  • Is it safe to use the USB port in my car to charge my iPhone 5s or do I need to buy a car charger?

    Is it safe to use the USB port in my car to charge my iPhone 5s or do I need to buy a car charger?

    Check car manual to see if it supports charging ,some do not
    or use a USB 12 volt plug in for the "cigarrette lighter" socket and plug into that ,probably a better solution

  • Acquiring Images using the USB port

    I want to acquire Images using the USB port of the PC. Is it possible to acquire images using the USB port and analyze the image using IMAQ library. If we use the USB port direct then we may not need the IMAQ vision acquisition card.

    Try Irene's drivers (see previous answer above), or Peter Parente's webcam drivers (www.mindofpete.org).

    190.36.1.1 is probably the WAN address of your firewall which will then be NAT to your server
    So currently from outside your network, if you browse 190.36.1.1:8008 you would then reach your remote management screen.
    This is therefore not the correct IP address, you need the internal LAN address of the server to enter into your workstation NW Client box

    You assume good, but I leave Tree blank, the context blank and in fieldserver I use the address Ip 190.36.1.1, that is the ip addressconfigured for the conection with the remote manager of Novell(190.36.1.1:8008).
    I think that the config that I need is in the server.

  • Using the USB port for an external HD dumb question

    OK. Forgive a possibly really dumb question here...
    My external HD has a USB 2.0 interface and I hooked it up to the USB port using a cable that came with an old USB 1 hub I'm not using right now.
    My dumb question is this: is there such a thing as a USB 2.0 cable? Or are the USB cables all the same?
    Also, how long should it be taking to transfer 12.1 GB of data (about 9,000 photos) from my external HD mounted on the AirMac base station to my MBP? There are still 48 minutes left and it seems an awfully long time for 12.1 GB of data. That's why I was wondering if the cable could be an issue...
    Thanks,
    doug

    I am suspecting now that my HD might really have been a USB 1.0 drive...

  • W4 Windows tablet - any way to charge while also using the USB port?

    I have an Acer W4 tablet with Windows 8 and I want to keep a USB printer and the USB charger attached to the tablet at the same time, but since it only has one USB port I cannot seem to make this work. I have tried an external, AC-powered USB hub which also charges attached USB devices, but it seems like the tablet won't charge when the USB port is in "host" mode, which it needs to be to talk to the printer. Anyone have a workaroud (hardware or software) for this problem? Thanks

    I think the end of this thread:http://community.acer.com/t5/Windows-Tablets-and-Convertibles/how-to-charge-the-W4-820-tablet-while-data-transfer-is-going-on/m-p/271906/highlight/true#M11301has the most current info on it.  Not easy but theoretically can work.

  • How do I connect a Canon Selphy CP900 using the USB port on Time Capsule

    I am running a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion (10.8.5) and have installed the CP 900 driver (6.2) supplied by Canon from their website.  I have a Time Capsule set up as a stand alone internal network at my home and use it as a network attched hard drive directly - not via Time Machine.  I can "see" the printer when I connect but cannot print to it.    I open a photo in preview and select the printer and print.
    I get a
    Cannin Selphy CP Generic
    connection method not supported message - 9786
    The printer does show up in my Print and Scan control panel in System Preferences
    I also cannot reach it to check suplies
    At the print it dsiplays the printer to computer connection via USB
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks, Asa

    Hi Asa,
    I experienced the same error -9786 although I'm not using the time capsule, but only through the wifi.
    I did following and resolved the problem.
    1. I re-installed the driver software.
    2. I re-configured the printer settings. (System Preferences - Printers and Scanners - "+" button)
    3. I didn't add the selphy manually, but just I just input "CP" in the searchbox in "Add" dialog, and clicked "OK" button then the printer is set automatically.
    4. I tried pringing a photo from iPhoto and could print correctly.
    it looks like the key action is #2 and #3 above, so why don't you give a try?

  • Can't connect my camera using the usb port.  Why does an error message appear?

    I've connected this camera hundreds of times in the past.  But now it says"A USB is attached that is drawing too much current.  The hub to which it is attached will be deactivated."  What's going on?  This is just a little digital point and shoot.

    A powered hub is a USB hub with it's own power supply.  Google "powered hub".  There's plenty to choose from.  These don't depend on the computer connection to supply power to the USB devices connected to them.  That's the reason for them requiring a separate power supply and of course why they are called "powered hubs".
    The fact that your camera works when the printer is disconnected confirms what I have been saying.  The machine just cannot supply enough power (I think it's 500mA max) to supply all the devices you want to connect concurrently (or it's right on the ragged edge).
    As for seeing the power draw, the info is indeed in the System Profiler*.  Select a USB device and look for info labeled "Current Available (mA)" and "Current Required (mA)".  It's the current required that I think is the power draw.
    * It's also shown in USB Prober in the Developert tools utilities.

    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.
