E 3000 router - Can computers using xp sp1 or sp2 connect wirelessly

I have one older computer that has xp sp1 and 3 others with sp2.  I loaded sp3 in my main computer but do not wish to install SP3 on other computers. My E3000 is an upgrade from a WRT 160n as I was hoping to gain speed and range. Do I have to go back to my old router or is there a way to make my computers work with the E3000 router in wireless mode?

Yes, I have an older dell (dual core) processor, w/ XP pro,  sp2, and connected my e3000 wi-fi, web based.  The one problem that plagues me is no access to Cisco connect, to access connect it appears I must have sp3, which my pooter is unable to do.
For what it's worth I was working at a Microsoft location and asked a techie about my sp3 dilemma, he advised me not to install sp3 because it caused him undue problems to make changes to unspecified programs on his PC, but this was a few years ago maybe things have changed, but I still fail every auto install.
Good luck.

  • Can I use the Airport Express to connect to a Linksys Wireless Network and then use the Ethernet port on the Airport for a wired connection to a device for internet access?  Would I be able to then also use that Ethernet pt to a Ntwk Hub for more wired c

    Thanks for the help.  Looked but not clear on what I am trying to do as being possible.  Can I use an Airport Express to connect wireless to a Linksys Wireless Router, such that I can then use the Ethernet ports on the Airport to either connected to a PC wired, or even use a hub off the Airport Express to allow multiple wired connections to it? 
    I am not looking to have the Airport Express extend my wireless network, just connect to it and provide me wired connections in a different location from where my Linksys Route is located.  Would prefer to replace Linksys with all Apple, but just not possible financially yet.  Thanks for the help.

    If the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is an 802.11n model, then yes, you can reconfigure it as a wireless Ethernet bridge. In this configuration, the AX would join the wireless network provided by the Linksys router and its Ethernet port would be enabled for either a single wired device or for an Ethernet hub or switch for multiple devices.

  • I have an airport extreme and express, if I use the extreme as a base station connected to my old router can I use the express to extend the signal while also creating a new network that only I can use?

    I have an airport extreme and express, if I use the extreme as a base station connected to my old router can I use the express to extend the signal while also creating a new network that only I can use? Essentially having two wifi connection off the same network? If so how do I set this up?

    Extending using a wireless connection always results in a performance compromise.
    If the Express is going to extend using a wireless connection, then the Express will need to be located about half way between the AirPort Extreme and the general area where you need more wireless coverage. The more that you have line-of-sight between the Extreme and Express, the better the network will operate.
    Remember......the Express can only "extend" the quality and signal speed that it receives, so it needs to be located where it can get a very good signal from the Extreme. Although Apple cleverly uses the term "extend", a more accurate term for the Express would be "repeater".
    If the Express will extend by connecting to the Extreme using a permanent, wired Ethernet cable connection......highly recommended for best performance.....then the Express can be located exactly where you need more wireless coverage. There is no signal loss at all through the Ethernet cable, so the Express gets a full speed signal no matter where it might be located.
    Post back to let us know which way to you want to go.

  • If I dont have wifi at home, can i use my iphone 4s to connect to the router?

    If I dont have wifi at home, can i use my iphone 4s to connect to the router and how?

    A lot of routers have the network name (ssid) and security key (password) for their wi-fi function  printed on a sticker on the bottom or back
    It sounds like your uncle is talking about a router with a wps ( wi-fi protected setup) function where you can press a button on the pc and router and then the router sends the network info to the pc, well unfortunately this does not work with the iPhone, you will need the password.
    Alternatively you can get the password by entering the routers internet based managment page by typing in its ip address into the address bar of your web browser ( usually this is somthing like 192.168.1.1 if this dosent work try googling the manufacturers name, model number and a query  e.g. linksys 54geu router managment ip address? ) if after typing in the router management ip address you get a page asking for a user name and password try entering Admin for the username and password for the password ( these are somtimes used as defaults untill you log in and change them) if these dont work they have probably been changed. Once in the router management page go to the wireless section and you will find the  network security key (password) in the security tab usually these are obscured as astrixes but ticking the show characters box will let you see them.

    Can I use non-apple notebook to connect AirPort Extreme?

    He might be trying to do so to promote his products or may be there was some misunderstanding.
    Airport Extreme will work as a wireless router supporting upto 50 systems including Mac computers, PCs, iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Apple TV and virtually all 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi wireless devices — all at the same time.

  • Can I use my Airport Extreme as a wireless bridge?

    Can I use my Airport Extreme as a wireless bridge?

    When you say "wireless bridge", I assume that you want the AirPort Extreme to receive a wireless signal and provide an Ethernet output, correct?
    If you have another Apple router providing your "main" wireless network, the AirPort Extreme could possibly be configured to "Extend a wireless network".
    In that setting, the Extreme provides more wireless coverage and Ethernet ports are enabled, so you could connect an Ethernet device that way.
    But, the AirPort Extreme cannot do this with a product from another manufacturer.
    So, in order to answer your question specifically, can you provide the make and model number of your "main" router?

  • HT4356 Can I use a 'pc' network printer connected via ethernet to the home wifi network ?

    Can I use a 'pc' network printer connected via ethernet to the home wifi network ?
    or must the printer I want to use also have a wifi connection ?
    I have a home network using ethernet connected devices to a router, also attached to th erouter is a WiFi unit. We are using the WiFi unit to connect to the network and hence to the big wide WWW.  We now want to print from our IPads pereferable to our netowk connected HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a series. (not the wireless model).
    I was using the HP ePrint app to print from the Ipad, but I do not fully understand how this works. It seems that you must use the app to do the printing which is fine for basic email and photos, but I can not access the drawing package I have, and want to print from it. Please what is it that I do not understand.

    You must use an airprint printer directly connected to wifi through it's own wifi card.

  • Can I use airplay(reflector) without internet connection ?

    Can I use airplay(reflector) without internet connection ?

    I don't see why you couldn't use AirPlay as a stand alone thing. Obviously you'll need wifi, but as for Internet I really don't know. Again, Internet shouldn't have any say but it might.
    Test it out, unplug the cable to your modem. If it's a modem/wifi router then unplug the DSL cable or cable internet cable.

  • Can I use more than one database connections in a jdeveloper project?

    I use jdeveloper version 9.0.4.0 (build 1407),Can I use more than one database connections in one jdeveloper project?

    9.0.4 is a fairly old version, so you may only find a few people who know how it worked.
    Assuming you're using ADF BC, once known as BC4J, once know as JBO, in the project, and that the architecture hasn't changed much, then the answer is only 1 connection per project.
    Programmatically you're free to use as many connections via JEE as you see fit, but ADF BC is limited to one connection.

  • Can I use Microsoft Project Professional to connect hyperlink a some documents in the server of our company?

    Just like the titre,
    Can I use Microsoft Project Professional to connect hyperlink to some documents in the server of our company?  I want to share some documents not in my computer, which is in the server of our company. 

    Hello,
    Sure you can, right click on required task that relates to the document, at the bottom on that menu you will see "Hyperlink". Click Hyperlink and a new window will open, in the new window in the "address" field type or paste in the web address / file share
    address etc. Click OK then you will see a web link appear in the indicator column.

  • How many PCI-FBUS/2 cards can be used in a PC to connect to various Fielbus networks?

    How many PCI-FBUS/2 cards can be used in a PC to connect to various Fielbus networks?  Are there limitations with the Communications Manager and Configurator?
    I currently have 1 PC with a PCI-FBUS/2 card interfaced to 2 Fieldbusses. Can I place any PCI-FBUS/2 card into the PC and run 2 additional Fieldbusses?

    Hi hhsatBeck,
    The limitations of CM and Configurator is,
    Configurator supports maximum 4 FF online segments, including H1 and HSE. For more than 4 segments, extra upgrade package should be purchased.
    CM supports maximum 16 FF segments, including both online and offline.
    So, you can use at most two PCI-FBUS/2 card (4 segments) on one PC.

    I mean the network makes you communicate with others connect to one internal network. Though you can connect over cellular network.
    Cellular network is still a network.
