Direct ethernet bridging g4 and macbook

well i posted this on the using tiger forum and got no replies, now i see the networking forum here...
i want to connect my old 2nd gen g4 to the macbook via ethernet. I have a x over cable and it looks like i may need it as i believe the g4 to be over 4 yrs old...
I tried just hooking up the 2 comps and hoped i would get immediate access but that is not the case. So how exactly do i set up the network? I like the idea of being able to daisy chain the internet to my g4 since it has no wifi and my macbook is recieving wifi. It looks like this would be possible but the OS tells me that it may interrupt flow from the isp. I am not sure how this will actually come in to play...
thanks for the help.

You may not need a crossover cable. They are usually only required on machines that could not auto-switch. You should find what you need in Help as well as in these:

Direct ethernet to NAS and using wireless at the same time

Hello,
I just picked up a Synology DS211 NAS and have been using my roommates' wireless router to connect to my 15" MBP unibody (OSX 10.6.5) and it's been working just fine but I need a faster connection to the NAS for the work that I do. I successfully got the NAS to connect directly to the MBP through ethernet but I lost my wireless connection to the router. I can't seem to get both to work at the same time and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.
Cheers,
Dylan

Don't mean to nitpick but just for those who may get confused that you do not typically want to change the subnet mask. I think what you are referring to is the IPv4 address, but what you are doing by changing the IP address you are creating a static IP address.
If you were changing the subnet you would be changing the one that appears as 255.255.252.0, you can change these settings to have certain computers to connect to different groups, a commonly used way to organize computers on larger networks.
Sorry just wanted to clarify, you want to create a "static IP address."

Ethernet Bridge and cat 5 cable to extend range?

I am in a building with wi-fi on the upper level, but I'm in the basement.
I have no means of extending the network "down" to me, but I'm trying to figure out a way for me to extend my range "up".
Does anybody know if a Wireless Ethernet Bridge (like the Belkin 802.11g Wireless Ethernet Bridge F5D7330) and a 50 foot ethernet cable could be used to pick up the wi-fi.
I'm thinking that I could possibly run the ethernet cable up the side of the building and place the wireless ethernet bridge on the roof, but I currently have no experience with a wireless bridge.
Thanks,
Luke

If you are running an Ethernet cable why not connect the Ethernet cable directly to the internet on the upper level instead of trying to detect the wireless signal?
Make sure that you use Ethernet cable which is rated for outdoor use and/or you place the cable in the proper conduit (pipe) to withstand the weather and meet any building codes.

WLC 2125 with 2x 1520 Mesh Points - Ethernet Bridging

Hi - I'm looking for assistance with a new Mesh set up we are deploying, the solutions consists of:
1x Wireless LAN Controller 2125
2x 1520 AP/Mesh Points
What we are trying to achieve is to bridge two networks together, I have followed the Cisco configuration guide and I simply can't get the traffic to cross from one side to the other. The WLC can see both 1520's on either side of the mesh network and I appear to have set it up right.
Here is how everything is set up:
- Local network (Class B, 10.0.0.0/16) connected to Port 1 on the WLC.
- 1520 is connected to Port 2 on the WLC via g0/0 with an IP address of 10.0.3.110 (management network, 10.0.3.111 for the wlan-management network) - this is set up as the RootAP, with ethernet bridging enabled and the bridging group set to rsqmesh.
- 2nd 1520 is around 800ft away set up as a MeshAP with ethernet bridging enabled and the bridging group set to rsqmesh. Small 5-port switch (non-cisco) connect to g0/0 on this 1520 with a device attached which has the IP of 10.0.3.37.
All help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Craig.

Bridging will not work if the RAP is directly connected to the controller. But CSCsk15792 is filed on this issue. If you put a switch between the controller and RAP traffic should start flowing.

Wireless Ethernet Bridge (WET54G) antenna

I have a WET54G Wireless Ethernet Bridge antenna and am in need of an omni-directional indoor antenna with a magnetic base. I've seen one from D-Link but cannot find a LinkSys antenna...do they make one or can someone point me in the the right direction here or will the D-Link antenna work with my bridge?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Mesh Ethernet Bridging with VLAN Tagging Issue

Hi all.
I'm a little stuck with a 4400 7.0.220.0 + RAP 1550 + MAP 1260 Ethernet bridging issue. I'm using the VLAN tagging functionality and I'm finding that periodically a VLAN that I've tagged on the MAP will deregister from the backhaul and stop passing traffic. If I go into the Mesh tab on the MAP, select the wired interface, remove the VLAN from the list of tagged VLAN IDs and then add it right back to the list, its starts passing traffic again.
Has anyone else seen this? I can't find any relevant bugs.
Justin

Hi Saravanan,
It is one RAP and three MAPs. After a TAC call and 30 hours of monitoring, my VLANs have remained registered. I think the issue was mismatched VLANs to bridge groups an it looks like the mesh bridge may be stable for now. Here is what I was seeing on the RAP and MAPs when the VLANs were deregistering unexpectedly. Notice how VLANs 2 and 10 are mapped to opposite bridge groups on the RAP and MAP:
After I removed all the VLAN IDs from the Trunk configuration on the MAPs (through each AP's Mesh tab -- Ethernet Bridging config) and then rebuilt the VLAN IDs, I ran the same commands and now see this:
My very unscientific theory here is that the mismatching was causing consistency checks to fail, so the RAP was just tearing down the registrations after getting bogus or non- responses from the MAPs during the periodic VLAN registration maintenance checks (debug mesh ethernet registration).
If I have continued issues, I'll post back with updates.
Thanks for the response!
Justin

Outdoor Mesh AP Ethernet Bridging Problem

Hi All,
I've setup 6 X 1522 MESH APs.
Setup:
There is 1 RAP and the rest are MAPs. All APs have already successfully registered with the WLC (4402-50), with the RAP being the hub and all other MAPs a single hop away. APs are all in VLAN 10 (same vlan as the AP manager) and the WLC management interface is in VLAN 9. Bth VLANs are routable to each other. All APs are configured with Ethernet Bridging checked and all are configured with the same bridge group name. The switchports (Fa0/8) for each switch connected to each AP is configured to be trunk mode with native Vlan of 10. All switches are also configure with other VLANs such as VL20 - 30 besides the mentioned VL9 & 10.
Problem:We tried to bridge VLAN 20 across the wireless bridge by plugging a notebook(A) to a switchport (Fa0/1: sw mode access & sw ac vl 20) belonging to a switch connected to MAP1; and another notebook(B) also plugged in to a VL 20 access port whose switch is connected to the RAP. From notebook A, we were able to ping all relevant IP addresses (notebook B, WLC management IP, VL 20, VL30 ip addresses of equipment somewhere else in the network behind the RAP). This means the wireless bridge is already working as VL20 is already bridge across th MAP and RAP. However, when we tried to do anything else, such as ftp, IPERF, some other TCP dependent application, it doesn;t work. we setup a FTP server on notebook B and used notebook A to retrieve a file. ftp client in notebook A was able to perform login, list directory. But when a file is being pulled, it stopped after it downloaded exactly 1024byte of information. FTP will timeout after a while with only 1024byte transferred. However, using tftp, we were able to complete transferring the entire file. It seems that the wireless bridge or the switches which the hosts were connected to allows tftp (UDP) to go through but restricted big packets/blocks of TCP information to go through (since only file transfer or any other application involving larger data exchange fails, but logging in and telneting applications still works).
Very puzzled as we had previously configured wireless bridging before on the same model of APs and it was working.
Can any experts here offer any advise to our problem?
BTW, the WLC is on the latest version of the MESH firmware as of today. All APs gets their IP address dynamically from a router in VLAN 10 configured with the correct DHCP pool and option 43 parameters. DHCP should be working well as our APs are all registered with the correct range of IP addresses and all APs are pingable from anywhere in the network. LinkSNR between the RAP and the MAPs are very good ranging from 30-38 hence it should not be an issue of poor signal or interference or noise.
Thank you
Alvin

I've personally not configured the MESH gear to form a bridge, so I can't provide any "real world" expertise. Here is short document on how to set it up, so maybe something within it will catch your eye:

AEBS and AExpress N ethernet bridge disconnects when I sleep MBP??

Hi all this is my first post but im a long time mac user having grown up in a mac house.
anyways im an it guy by profession and ive been working at this issue to no avail so I figured I might come on there and see if any of you have experienced this issue
the issue I get is that when I close/sleep my MBP it disconnects the Airport Express ethernet bridge clients
NETWORK Info
I run a small business from my home thus I have FiOS (yay 20/20) with a block of 13 static ips that i distribute via DHCP and MAC reservation to allow remote access to my network as well as keep things consistent.
I currently run cat6 from my FiOS ONT to my Airport Extreme Base Station, which i use on a strict N only in 5ghz range as my area is flooded with b/g networks but no n networks (yay again).
I recently acquired an N Airport Express to provide a wireless to ethernet bridge thus extending my network to my entertainment center (ps3 xbox etc)
(extra info: im using n here because i found that b/g limits my internet connection speeds to 7-9 mbps where as my connection is capable of 20. On my n speed network I can get my full bandwidth wirelessly, yes I know there is obviously some bandwidth and throughput loss by going wireless but not as much as a b/g network was giving me)
NETWORK SETTINGS
On my n network I distribute a range of IP addresses from my static block. I have tried a few different dhcp lease times which definitely improved my initial problem which seemed that it would log me out when the key rotated every 20 min. Currently ive bumped that up to 1 day (i know not as secure id like to set it back to 20min but it seems that when it rotates that it logs me out) and haven't had that specific issue revolving around key rotation again. ive tried the WDS, Extend a network and join a network options with no real difference in behavior when I shut my laptop and for example my GF is playing rock-band online she gets disconnected also worth noting that it seems there is an intermittent DNS issue on the express ie cant find time server even though at that time ethernet clients are able to connect and get dns response
Below is my log from my express base station when the disconnect occurs

Trying to set up Time Capsule to MacBook Air but it only recognises the ethernet LAN connection and not the WAN Any ideas?

If I put the ethernet cable in the WAN port of the capsule my book doesn't pick it up but when I put it in the LAN one it does. Then it tells me it needs the WAN connection I tried rebooting in various ways including modem but I can't get past 2 problems i.e. Problem1 - Double NAT so I click the Bridge Mode and then it asks me to place the cable in the WAN port. As soon as I do it loses it. The light is flashing amber so its clearly a connection problem. Any ideas anyone?

The WAN port is for the ethernet cable that is coming straight from your modem/router.
Plug your computer into any of the Lan ports.
Once you're configured (and in bridge mode) it won't matter after that, but leave those details for later.

Hello i buy a new macbook air white i5 ivy bridge processor and when i play a game the cpu themperature is 88-100 c its normal?

Hello i buy a new macbook air white i5 ivy bridge processor and when i play a game the cpu themperature is 88-100c it is normal?

One thing I should add. While "normal", it doesn't make it preferrrable that you should be always running near the maximum capability of the unit. The new 2012 MBA's are outfitted with CPU's that have a maximum running temp of 115 degrees C. (the 2011's were rated at 100 degrees C.)
At, or near this point, the CPU will shut down the system to safeguard from overheating. Right under this point the system's fan will be running at top speed. Any mechanical device, run at or near it's capability will undergo accelerated wear. Just how much in this situation is unknown. as such, I don't use my MBA as a full-time gaming rig. I try and keep it sensible.
The MBA is not really designed for gaming, but it's competent performance sometimes lures us to use it as such.

Beginner question: Can I create a hybrid home network between an ethernet-connected iMac and an airport connected Macbook Pro using a hybrid router?

I recently acquired an friend's used iMac, I don't know anything about networks and all I can find is how to create a Wi-Fi home network but nothing about hybrid Ethernet/Wi-Fi networks.
I have the iMac connected via Ethernet to the wireless router.
I connect via Airport with my MacBook Pro
I would appreciate if anyone has any pointers as to how I can start setting up a network between my ethernet-connected iMac and WiFi connected Macbook.
Thanks!

ethernet and airport/WiFi are just transmission media for the same network. If you can get internet on both computers, they are networked. Using the same router = same network.
So now, what is it you want to do? Share files between them?

I have a netgear n300 router broadcasting my wpa secured wireless network and bought an airport express to extend the network. I did an Ethernet setup from a MacBook, got the green checkmark but no extension. help.

I have a net gear n300 router transmitting my WPA secured network, and I bought an airport express to use as a network extender. I configured it via an Ethernet cable from a MacBook using manual setup in airport utility. I got the green checkmark at the end, but it is not extending my signal. Can you help me?

Unfortunately, most non-AirPort routers are not compatible with Apple's implementation of Wireless Distribution System (WDS)...so it very unlikely that your Netgear router can be extended wirelessly with the AirPort Express Base Station (AX).
The few non-AirPort routers that are known to work are:
Linksys WRT54G or WRT54GS (not v5)
Belkin F5D7230-4 and F5D7231
BT Voyager 2091
Netgear WGR614 v6
Buffalo WGR-G54
