Creating WDS for a/b/g AND extended 'n' network..can I do both???

I have finally been able to get my Airport Extreme-n and Airport Express-n setup as a WDS since all of my wireless nodes currently only support a/b/g and i needed to boost my signal in the house. It took quite some time to setup just right, after using this forum, and trail+error / docs. I ended up turning off the 'n' protocol, but maybe did not need too. Now I simply have a 2.4 WDS wireless network established and extended via the AP Express and so far so good.
I see an AppleTV in my future and I will want and need to re-establish the 'n' 5.0 Ghz network and may need to extend the N via my Airport Express too. So, can I do both??? Continue to have the WDS with the APexpress acting as the remote and turn back on the 5.0 ghz network and extend the n to my Express? My only stipulation is that this would be WIRELESSLY extending, not using the AP express ethernet port to connect to my extreme's ethernet port.
I was hoping switching to "802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)” and then enabling the extending feature on both the extreme express would wirelessly extend the .n network, while I can keep the WDS configuration to 'extend' by non-n wireless devices.
Since I have an iMac with n-device, I presume I could try this as a test as well???

Hi Bob, my current configuration is using the WDS option; I have the latest versions of the Dual-band AP Extreme and latest AP Express hardward. I was told that since I had a/b/g nodes, that the only option I had was to create a WDS and have both Airport devices participate in that configuration. I was told specifically in other posts that I could not utilize the "extend a wireless network" feature since this is exclusively for .N devices only and since I have a mixed bag of devices, I had to use the 'Participate in a WDS' configuration.
I did try to use the "extend a wireless" configuration and this would not work well at all. I just dont see getting rid of my a/b/g devices anytime soon.
Should I turn on dual-band N for my Airport Extreme, but not use the "extend a wireless" feature and hope that the 5gzh signal is strong enough to connect to future .N nodes as I obtain them?
Kind regards,
Rob

    New iMac. Flash drive is primary for OS and apps.  I want to use my HD 2 (1 TB hard drive) for my bulky photo and music files.  Can I direct iPhoto and iTunes to use the larger hard drive as the primary target when importing?

    Yes.  Unfortunately, I don't know the specifics because I don't use iPhoto anymore and I completely copied over 15 years of MP3 files recently when I installed 10.7.  Needless to say, I have not opened iTunes since and probably never will again - not because of iTunes but because of my stupidity.  I did have some of the files backed up but I hadn't backed up in a while.......anyway....
    When I imported my CD's, I had them go directly to my external firewire.  I can't remember exactly how to set it, but in the preference section of iTunes you can specify an import destination to any drive that's available to your machine.  I did this with iPhoto as well way back at one point when I was using Tiger, but I don't remember the specifics on that either.  I can't imagine they would have discontinued support for that feature since then. 
    Sorry I couldn't help more.

    Hello JB-Baby
    You can't create a subfolder in Sent. Mail does this automatically for each account you set up. If you wish to organise messages you send by some criteria or other, why not consider a Smart Mailbox?
    I assume by your second question you mean can you change the columns in the message viewer? Yes you can. You select View -> Columns and check the ones you want. You can adjust the order of the columns by dragging the titles around in the message viewer.
    If you didn't mean this, maybe you could explain what you are after in a little more detail.

  • Adf bc jar for base entity classes and extending them existing  project

    Hi,
    I am using jdev 11.1.1.0 and have created a base workspace/project and adf jar for my base entity classes.
    1. I can consume this base adf bc jar in a separate new consuming workspace and create VO based on base bc classes or create new EOs that extend base bc entity classes.
    2. Furthermore, for an existing consuming project that earlier included src/ of base entity (BC components), i can remove the dependency on bc source and bring in this new adf jar and everything including the view controller and the service/datacontrol works fine.
    The issue i am running into is as follows.
    - In the existing project (#2) above i try to create a couple of entities based on entities in my base jar; associations are automatically brought in. Note i am not overriding any attributes. My intent here is to generate .java and implement some code.
    - I then try to make my existing VOs based on the newly extended entity (VO overview->Entity Objects-> Shuttle NewEntity from Available to Selected)
    - I then try to remove the old EO from selected under VO overview->Entity Objects->Shuttle OldEntity from Selected back
    - I get a warning dialog box that says something to the effect that some viewlinks are dependent on these old EOs in this consuming project.
    - I tried to laboriously analyzed dependencies and it this dialog box does not make any sense as I have already extended EOs and the tooling should be able to let me use these
    My questions
    - Why I am not able to remove old entities from VO dependencies
    - Is it ok to leave the old EOs in "Selected" along with the newly extended EO ? What are the implications for this?
    - I also thought about extending base associations, but did not go anywhere.
    In general, I am ok with consuming an ADF BC jar that has entities etc. but not clear about removing dependencies of base EOs on VOs when entities are extended and consumed in a pre-existing project that used base entities.
    I can send a project if any PM is willing to take a look at it.
    Thanks,
    ps:
    I have already gone over the following info
    http://technology.amis.nl/blog/215/organization-of-bc4j-domain-eo-and-business-vo-package
    .. wants to create an enterprise data model in BC4J, reflecting the Enterprise Data Model set up in the RDBMS. All (or at least most) business rules will be implemented in the Middle Tier – to take the load of the database and also allow developers not comfortable with PL/SQL to define and maintain the business rules. It is clear that this means that all applications that need to access – and manipulate – the database, need to go through the BC4J foundation layer. Martijn wants to define the Entity Objects – and their business rules – only once and share that definition between different projects. Each projects can create its own ViewObjects on top of these shared Enterprise Entity Objects.
    http://radio-weblogs.com/0118231/2005/09/29.html
    I am currently working on a project for a partner where we will be using ADF BC as our model layer for a large application. In order to keep the footprint of each application module down to a reasonable size, we are intending to create a number of separate 'root' application modules for each functional area of the application. Within, these 'root' application modules we will then use nested application modules to further partition the application. All of the application modules will be accessing the same datasource and will need access to the same database objects.
    In order to separate our code between the development team and into function areas, our initial thoughts were that we would create an ADF BC model project containing Entity Objects for all of the database tables e.t.c. as these are common amongst all functional areas. We have configured all of the EOs for validation rules, defaulting values and extending doDML() as appropriate. Happy at this stage we then created a simple .jar file to deploy all of the definitions. Upon creating a new ADF BC project for each functional area we added the jar file as a library import into the new project. However when we the tried to create some new View Objects via the JDev Wizard we were unable to see the imported Entity Objects.
    Is the only way to share Entity Object definitions between different ADF BC projects to manually copy the source definition files into the new projects src directory? Since this would mean multiple copies of the same components, it could prove to be a maintenance nightmare.Is there a way of doing it without creating multiple copies of the same object definitions?
    The developer is spot on in their ideas of layering and reuse, and even has created a library for their reusable entities. This last step is not something everyone thinks to do. The missing step is known as "importing" components, so with that one extra bit of knowledge under his belt, he should be able to do exactly what he envisions. My little article called Difference Between Adding and Importing Business Components tries to explain the difference and gives the menu options to choose to perform the importing.

  • What is the difference between WDS and Extending a network?

    What is the difference between the two? Why choose one over the other?

    Both the WDS and "Extend a wireless network setting will add more coverage area to a wireless network.
    WDS must be used if any device on the network is an older "g" device. The downsides to WDS are that it drops the overall wireless speed down to "g" levels (even if there are other newer "n" routers on the network) and cuts the bandwidth capability of the network in half for each "remote" device that is added to the network. That's a really severe loss in performance.
    "Extend a wireless network" is a newer technology that can be used only if all of the routers on the network are newer "n" capable devices. It allows full "n" speeds and imposes only a small bandwidth penalty on the network. Obviously, this is the setup to use if your devices will support the technology.

  • Help Needed Creating AppleScript for Dial Up Access and Updates

    Hello,
    Due to my location I can only access the internet via Dial Up. I would like to create a script that wakes up my Mini early in the AM, dials my ISP and checks to see if there are any Apple Updates. I'd like to do this at night so my family doesn't have to compete with updates when they are using the computer.
    I've done the Apple Scripting tutorials and have a feel how to do the basics. But I cannot find any information on how to access the USB Modem (US Robotics), get it to dial, access the "Check for Updates" page, download, install and then disconnect.
    Can anyone point me to a functional script that will do this or tell me where I can find the modem related scripting commands?
    Thanks

    1). Does your script both get and install updates if they exist ? If not what should be added to accomplish that?
    If you use man softwareupdate to look at the command line options for softwareupdate you'll find:
    -i | --install
    Each update specified by args is downloaded and unarchived,
    and also installed. The install flag requires root. args
    can be one of the following:
    item ... One or more update names.
    -a | --all All appropriate updates.
    -r | --req All required updates.
    So '-i' tells softwareupdate to install the updates, and '-a' tells it to install all available updates, as opposed to a specific update, or 'required' ones.
    2). Can you suggest an addition to the script that will disconnect the dial up modem and then shut down our Mac Mini?
    That's going to be harder because, as written, the script performs the softwareupdate in the background. It does that so that you don't run into timeout issues (by default AppleScript will timeout after a certain period, canceling the script in progress). Since it's not clear how long the updates will take to download and install it isn't possible to predict what the appropriate timeout should be.
    The easiest way to disconnect would be to just configure the dialup connection to disconnect after a certain period of idleness (System Preferences -> Network -> Modem -> Advanced -> PPP -> Options or some such). If that doesn't suffice let me know and I'll craft up a revised script.

  • HT1578 My Macbook Pro has been trying to create this for 4 hours now, and is only 25% done.. ideas?

    I'm trying to create a small password-protected image, and followed the instructions in this article; however, it has been stuck at "creating image" for about 4 hours now and is only 25% done. Ideas?

    Hi, tough to tell, but...
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

  • SOLUTION TO Time Capsule and extend wireless network using AEBS, Printers..

    Hello GUYS
    I find the solution: at least I have extended wireless using TC and old AEBS.
    : well everybody have same problems to initialize second AEBS, and set it up.
    OK follow this steps:
    put next to each other TC (time capsule) and AEBS (airport extreme) -> switch AEBS off
    If you followed installation TC correctly it should work without any problem.
    SETING UP TC PART 1
    pres in finder Command + Shift + U =then click Airport utility
    set your TC with manual.
    On piece of paper record Airport ID:
    Click on TIME CAPSULE
    I recommend change name not to use deffault long name for TC. Simply call it TC if you want. Set password.
    In wireless. Write a name of your Network, keep it simple TC627 what ever. Write it down on paper. security WPA2 personal and password.
    Update. and close utility
    End of part 1
    Part 2:
    AEBS setup.
    Switch AEBS on: No need to switch off TC
    Press reset button for more than 5 sec. so everything is restore to factory settings.
    -> in the bar top click wireless and select AEBS. You have to do this otherwise Airport utility will not recognise AEBS.
    When you are done. Command shift U
    Click airport utility. and manual setup.
    -> write down the Airport ID.
    Set up your AEBS, name something simple so you know what it is. Password and security.
    Here do yourself favor use the same passwords as on TC and security.
    NOW ->
    click Wireless.
    *Wireless network has to be same as on TC.*( it is on the paper)
    Select Participate in wireless network
    Radio mode b,g compatible or only N it is up to you.
    I setup WPA2Personal again with the same password( same on TC)
    Click WDS
    Select WDS remote
    select Allow wireless clients
    and now write the TC airport ID into WDS main: number (it is on your paper)
    Update.
    switch off utility.
    no go to right top and change airport back to TC.
    Go to manual
    Click Wireless:
    Select Participate in WDS Network
    Click WDS: wds mode to Main
    allow wireless clients: and write into WDS remotes AEBS ID, (it is on the paper).
    and update.
    both airports will restart.
    and you are extended.
    You made it. Go to Utility Cmd,shift, U and you should be able to see both airports.
    Now what you have to do is to take AEBS to different place.
    Put it somewhere in second room. Go back to your computer. Leave it for couple of minutes. 10 -15 is ok.
    to make sure your TC can find AEBS. If not TC will indicate by flashing green and orange. = >AEBS has to be closer.
    correct is that TC has still green light.
    Before you start with time machine: read what files to include
    hope it helps.
