Controlling Traffic Through WRT610N Router Ethernet Port

I would like to know how I can configure the Ethernet ports on my WRT610N router to only accept connections from specific PC MAC addresses/s
Thought that this should be straight forward but cannot find where to allow these settings in the configuration UI.

The built-in ethernet switches of most consumer brand routers are simple ethernet switches. They don't do any filtering and they don't offer any configuration. It doesn't have anything to do with software or hardware control. The whole switching fabric is implemented in hardware in the switch. That's the cheapest way to built it and that's the way it is.
Managed switches which allow LAN filtering are much more complicated and much more expensive...

Airport express connected to my existing network - Can I connect a device to the network through it's ethernet port?

Is it possible when my airport express is wirelessly connected to my existing network - to connect a device to the network through it's ethernet port or is it wireless only at that point?
I'm trying to connect my A/V Receiver in another room to my network without having to run a CAT5 cable all the way to the router. I'd rather be able to connect it to my airport express if it will work that way.

Is it possible when my airport express is wirelessly connected to my existing network - to connect a device to the network through it's ethernet port or is it wireless only at that point?
Yes.....IF
You have an AirPort Express 802.11"n" version configured to "join a wireless network" and you have enabled the option to "Enable Ethernet Clients"
Or
You have an AirPort Express 802.11"n" configured to "extend a wireless network" from another Apple "n" router, in which case the Ethernet port is enabled by default

How do I add an airport extreme to existing time capsule network and be able to use the router ethernet ports?

Good day everyone. I recently upgraded my airport extreme network by replacing the base station with a time capsule router. Since I now have an "extra" airport extreme router, I've set it up on the other side of the house to both extend the wireless range as well as use it's LAN ports for a home theater system in that location. Connecting the two routers was done via ethernet. It now appears that I need to do something "else" as the LAN ports on the now relocated airport extreme are nonfunctional. All devices are operating well for wireless and as a review, the modem is connected to the time capsule WAN which is connected to the airport extreme via ethernet cable via LAN to it's WAN port. What do I need to change on configurations to get the LAN ports functioning on the airport extreme? Thank you for any help.

With both base stations interconnected by Ethernet you have the basis for a "roaming" type network. If properly configured, both base stations' Ethernet ports would be enabled for wired clients.
The key configuration items for a roaming network are as follows:
All base stations used must be interconnected by Ethernet.
The "main" base station; the one connected to the Internet modem, must be configured to provide both NAT & DHCP services; all other base stations used must be configured as bridges (NAT & DHCP disabled.)
Each base station must have a unique base station name.
Each base station must use the same wireless security type and password.

Network Configuration Window Freezes When USB NDIS Internet Connection Sharing and Ethernet Port Are Used Simultaneously

Current Setup:
Asrock Extreme 4 Z77 mobo with built-in Broadcom NetLink (TM) Gigabit Ethernet. Windows 8 Pro. Intel i5-3570k (using onboard Intel 4000 HD Graphics). RAID0- 2 OCZ Vertex 4's.
I will refer to this setup as my tower.
The Ethernet port works fine by itself. When I use wired tethering with my Android phone (Droid 4 running on 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich), it works fine when nothing is connected into the Ethernet port in the mobo.
The issue arises when I try to connect both simultaneously. The network configuration window in windows basically freezes and I cannot really navigate it without a ~60 second delay at best.
I would like to be able to accept the internet from my Android via a USB tether and either bridge the connection or use the internet connection sharing service to route traffic through the unused Ethernet port on the mobo (either to another computer/xbox
or more desirably a switch/router to spread to the entire home network). I have extensively researched the issue of Windows 8 become slow and unresponsive when I attempt to do this and I have not found anyone with the exact problem. I am able to
do both the MAC bridge miniport (bridge 2 connections) and Internet Connection Sharing though a Windows Vista (home premium) Laptop I have. The difference between the laptop and the tower I am try to do this on is the laptop has a WIFI and Ethernet connection
while the tower only has the on-board Ethernet.
Do I have all the necessary equipment to accomplish this, or do I need to buy a PCIe WIFI card? If so could I get away with just getting a USB WIFI dongle?
Any help would be very appreciated.

I had the same problem and came here by searching.
Per Rosengren's method solved the problem, but he didn't say how to do it, so I'll try to explain step-by-step for anyone that may venture here.
Open Device Manager (right click on Computer > Manage > on the left side, under System Tools choose Device Manager)
Choose the problematic device in Network Adapters (for me it's called HTC Remote NDIS based device)
Right click on it and choose Update Driver Software...
Click Browse my computer for driver software
Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers
Uncheck the box Show compatible hardware
For the manufacturer, choose Microsoft Corporation
Now you will have two options:
- Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device
- Remote NDIS Compatible Device
I chose the second one and it solved the problem, but if it doesn't work you could try the other one. In my case, the driver that was being used was neither of these, but a special driver from Android SDK ADT bundle.
Pick one and click Next. If a dialog comes up, confirm by clicking Yes.
Wait a few seconds for the connection to restart. If it doesn't work, try disabling and reenabling USB tethering on the phone, or reconnect the USB cable.
I should also note that I'm using a custom Android ROM on HTC Wildfire S (unofficial Cyanogenmod). If you have a stock ROM with HTC Sense, maybe this method may not work and you'll need a proprietary HTC driver.

RV042 - direct browsing traffic to only one WAN port?

Hi, I have a RV042 (firmware 1.3.13.02-tm). Is it possible to configure so traffic from a specific domain (incl. its sub-domains) is directed exclusively to one WAN port? If so, how can I do this? Thanks.

Hi PAC, in a load balance environment it affects only outbound traffic which would use protocol bind to force traffic through a particular WAN port, meaning it won't affect inbound traffic.
The access rules page only supports source interface but you may try to create an access rule that looks something like this;
Action Allow
Service - (Whatever service you're using)
Source interface WAN 1
Source IP address - Range of public IP address from the domain/sub domains
Destination Ip address - The IP address of your subnet or specific nodes
Now, if you're using a load balance environment, you may want to bind traffic to WAN 1 that originate from the specific hosts that make the request to the domain/sub domains to ensure the source IP address leaving the router otherwise it would be possible to have a different source IP going over the 2nd WAN.
I'm not sure if it would work this way but to the best of my knowledge this would about be the only way to make it work since the router doesn't support telling inbound services to use a specific WAN.

Ethernet port to 100 speed

all,
can we force a router ethernet port to run at 100 meg? as far as i know this runs at 10 meg. can i configure it to 100 meg and duplex to full so that it communicate with a switch

hi jon, here's a show version of our router:
cisco 2610 (MPC860) processor (revision 0x202) with 61440K/4096K bytes of memory
Processor board ID JAB0314034T (1672352097)
M860 processor: part number 0, mask 49
Bridging software.
X.25 software, Version 3.0.0.
1 Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 interface(s)
1 Serial network interface(s)
32K bytes of non-volatile configuration memory.
16384K bytes of processor board System flash (Read/Write)
Configuration register is 0x2102
the ethernet interface will be connected to the LAN through a fastethernet port on a 2950G switch. my boss wants to run the connection at 100 meg. is this possible on ethernet port?

Any way to select Ethernet ports for outgoing SMTP mail?

We've got an Xserve G4 running OS X Tiger Server 10.4.6. We're hosting two domains for Web and Mail services (call them mydomain1.com and mydomain2.com). Web service is running great, and Mail service is running fairly well except for one minor snafu I can't seem to figure out.
The problem is that outbound SMTP mail is always directed out through the same Ethernet port -- the primary Ethernet port. What I would like to have happen is that mail coming from [email protected] addresses go out through the primary Ethernet port (mail.mydomain1.com) and mail coming from [email protected] addresses go out through a secondary Ethernet port (mail.mydomain2.com). If we don't do this, there's a few mail servers out there who become paranoid and think we're spamming them -- they see mail coming from an IP address associated with the mydomain1.com domain for a user with a mydomain2.com ReplyTo address.
Does anyone know of any way to select which port gets used for outbound mail selectively? Offhand I can't see any solution except to get a second e-mail server to handle mail for mydomain2.com.
This may not impact the issue, but for incoming mail I'm making use of virtual domains (but not virtual hosts) so that mail can be received by a user in any of the following ways:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, I found the solution in case anyone else is having this same problem. What I did was:
1. Delete the MobileMe account from the iPhone
2. Create the POP account with the proper inbound and outbound settings
3. iPhone will attempt to connect to the POP via SSL which fails and prompts to go sans-SSL
4. Accept the non-SSL option and back out of the Mail setup
5. Create the MobileMe account
6. Tap Add SMTP server
7. The POP account's SMTP server will be listed, turn it on
6. Turn off MobileMe's SMTP server
9. Back out to view accounts and select the POP account
10. Disable the POP account (prevents duplicate emails)
It turns out that the phone will allow you to turn of SSL on POP accounts because it goes through the process of checking to see if it can use SSL -- when that fails, you have the option to turn it off. Because of the way MobileMe sets up, you don't have that option on that account which is why you need to create the POP first.

Creating Dual Ethernet ports and separateing Internet vs. LAN

I have a situation in a shared office where I would like to be on the LAN so as to be able to share files and peripheral equipment such as printers, but I would like to have my own dedicated highspeed DSL service instead of what is provided and shared by the rest of the LAN. What is the best way to go about this?
Can I install a second Ethernet card in my G5 and have the connection from the DSL modem go directly into that port? If so, how would I tell the computer to use that port for Internet instead of using the other used for LAN? I mean since technically I would have dual Internet services coming to my machine (one through my LAN and the other through the secondary Ethernet port) how could it know which one to access?
PowerMac G5 Dual 2GH Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Also, as a follow up question, can I use any Ethernet card or are there Mac specific one that I need to get?

I have a MacBook Pro and all of a sudden I cannot get wireless internet connectivity to my router or any other router, I get connectivity through the ethernet port but not wireless. This was working well till this morning

What do you mean it did not work! What were the results of the diagnostic tests?
Have you contacted your ISP to determine if the problem is on their end?
Have you changed your router channel? Sometimes this resolves wireless problems.

Which one can I use properly to monitor all the wireless Devices in my hous

Actually, none of the options will do what you are looking for it to do. That is because, this application only monitors the traffic from the device it is hosted on. That would also mean that you would have to run a copy on each computer that will access the Internet on your network; note their individual usages, and then, combine them to get an idea of the total usage.
However, if you are only interested in the amount of Wi-Fi traffic that only your computer is seeing, then the "AirPort Network Card" option would be the correct choice.

Traffic policy in pps for through the router data

Hello. I need to construct an inbound traffic policy for a router to limit pps. The traffic is actually through the router traffic destined for hosts further in the network. What I am seeing is that pps can only be applied to control plane policies and control plane policy, as I understand it, is for to the router traffic (BGP etc). Is there another way to do this or am I incorrect in my understanding of the control plane? I am working with an ASR 1002. Thanks.

In case you're interested I explain how the MAX DECODE approach works, with step by step examples, in my new Rows to Columns tutorial series.

ONT: Ethernet port & DGL-4500 router

Hello everyone,
Currently I have only FIOS Internet and do not have any plans to get TV service, so this will make the setup substantially more flexible.
Right now I have my ActionTec configured as a bridge and connected to a Coaxial cable. From the ActionTec, I connect to my DGL-4500. This is my main router. I've had to use the ActionTec as a bridge due to the coaxial cable.
I would prefer to ditch the ActionTec completely and connect my DGL-4500 directly to the ONT via that Ethernet Port. However, there's 2 problems: First, the ethernet port on the ONT has a bunch of clear goo in it, and it's extremely hard to get out. What the heck is this? Secondly, the light is competely turned off, even after plugging it into my router.
The light being off, according to my investigation, is deliberate. This is because you cannot have the MocA and the Ethernet enabled simultaneously. If this is true, I would have to get technical support to enable it remotely, right? I always hate having to call verizon, so if this can be avoided that would be ideal.
The first thing I want to know is if I would benefit by ditching the ActionTec as a bridge and connecting my DGL-4500 router directly. Is there any extra overhead? If the router does no processing and literally acts as a Layer 2 switch, then it shouldn't be too bad. However, I'm worried that it is processing traffic.
Secondly, how easy is it to get the ethernet port enabled? What would you guys recommend for my setup?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Your issue is simple to resolve - You state you are not a video customer - therefore may use your own router - Via pm provide me with your contact information and I can re-provision your ckt to Ethernet.

I want to turn off the wifi radio and only access my macs through the ethernet ports, I already have an excelent wireless system for my entire house, can I turn off radio?

How to turn off radio but still backup through the ethernet ports?
Thanks

If you are asking about turning off the wireless radio on an Apple router / Time Capsule.....
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > AirPort Utility
Click on the AirPort / Time Capsule
Click Edit
Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next page
Change the setting for Network Mode to Off

Can I activate the ethernet ports (routing) of Time Capsule "joining" an existing non-Apple wireless network ?

Hello,
I have a DSL modem that is also a WIFI router as my main WIFI network from room A. In room B, I have a TC wirelessly joining the existing WIFI network (not creating a new one). That works fine, I have one SSID, and I can wirelessly access the TC disks and backup my Mac on my TC.
Now, I would like to connect a wired device (with on WIFI) to the ethernet port of my TC. Unfortunately, the ethernet ports of the TC don't seem to be "activated" as they do not have internet on them.
More precisely, I'd like to connect a GE Cordless Skype Phone Model# 31591 (http://www.gephones.com/products/skype/dect-6-0-expandable-digital-cordless-phon e-with-skypetm.html) that connects to a router via Ethernet. I'm aware that I could simply connect it to the DLS router, but that's not what I want... Is there any way to activate the ethernet ports of the TC while in "join" mode ? Or do I really have to buy a Airport Express to create my main network and then extend it ?!?

Thanks, the reason why I asked again, is because you told me to start another thread with the specifics of the device I want to connect, so I did
Not a big deal, and it is easy to become confused.....but to be clear about this
Your question.....
is there a way I can connect my Bluray player to the TC ?
My Answer.....
Please start a new post for that. Tell us the make and model number of the player and whether you plan to connect using wireless or Ethernet.
so I tried to creat the main WIFI network with a first-generation Airport Express M9470LL/A (802.11b/g, no "draft N" or "n" support) and the TC wouldn't extend it either, is it too old/not supported
Unfortunately, the "extend" setup will only work with "n" devices. The older Express does not have a setting to "Allow this network to be extended", so the Time Capsule cannot pick up the signal.
I'm not sure what else to suggest other than what I already have. I'm assuming that you do not want to buy another new Airport Express.

Trying to connect 2nd printer through Ethernet Port of AEX b/g

Hello all, Hello (maybe) Duane,
I do have a 2nd Airport Express b/g on our home network, and have a normal laser printer running as a wireless bonjour printer through that 2nd AEX, which is set up as a remote base station. I do have the Ethernet port free on that AEX, and want to connect a Brother 4040cn network ready color laser printer through the Ethernet port of this base station and use it as a bonjour printer? wirelessly... The AEX is set up as a remote base station to the main base station using WDS... I read a lot that the ethernet port only works when this station is in WDS mode - it is, but I still can't get it to work...
I talked to a guy at the Apple Store and he told me it should work, and that I somehow have to configure the Ethernet port of the AEX as a bridge so that could work.... ? It is not a supported solution (as expected...) so I tried to find that, but I am not able to work it out.
I can see the printer using the brother software, it shows me the status of the printer correctly, but I cannot get any printouts. The printing windows shows the printer, even lets me pick it as a bonjour printer, sends it off to the printer, but nothing arrives at the printer... I can use the web based printer management utility, which directly connects to the using the IP address, and can send stuff that is printed out, but i cannot get it working.
Hope that makes sense - anyone out there able to help?
Ningaloo

Hello,
If you wanted to setup a wireless network, you could look at some Wireless Ethernet USB adapters (will work just like the AirPort):
http://www.afterthemac.com/
Understand that the "AirPort" is just Apple's fancy name for Standard WiFi Networking. It's not anything special. Just Apple's implementation.
So, any WiFi Ethernet Adapter is going to be compatible with Apple's Airport network.
If you want to use the standard USB to Ethernet adapters, then you could look to see if you can find a suitable driver that will either enable your adapter (the one you just purchased) to work, or perhaps find an adapter that has a 3rd-party driver and then purchase that one. The following website lists Mac OS drivers that will enable "Windows-Only" adapters to work:
http://www.sustworks.com/site/newsusbethernet.html
The problem there, is that most USB to Ethernet (not wireless) adapters come only with Windows drivers. So, this website provides information and support to make those devices with with Mac OS X.
Otherwise, I have not found a pre-packaged USB to Wired Ethernet device that comes with Mac drivers.
But, the first website lists lots of USB to Wireless Ethernet adapters that come with Mac Drivers.
I hope this helps.
