E3000 as an access point with an E3200 as the primary router not showing all connected devices

I recently rewired my home with cat 6. All network and telephone comes in to the basement. While most devices in the home were converted to LAN connections a few remain WiFi connected.  The connections are as follows:
Cable modem -> E3200 ->High Speed Switch <--> E3000.
I purchased the E3200 to be the primary router. I'm using both 5.0 and 2.4 ghz connections. I set up my (existing) E3000 as an access point (AP) according to these instructions. I used the LAN-LAN setup so that all devices would be on the same network. Both E3200 and E3000 are at the latest firmware level. Both use the  same SSIDs, one each for 5ghz connection and a second for 2.4 ghz connection. Almost everything is working but there are a few nagging issues.
1) A smart  phone connected wirelessly to the AP shows as a LAN connection when viewing the E3200 DHCP client list
2) I set up a DHCP reservation for my network attached printer on the E3200.  When it connects via the AP it is not assigned the predefined IP address
3) I can see the network attached printer on the E3000 MAC filter list but I can't see it when viewing DHCP clients or MAC wireless clients from the E3200 even though the printer is attached and working correctly.
I can understand the reasons for issue 1 but it seems that a client attached to a wireless AP should also show as wireless to the main router.

Well, let me know what IP addressess you have assigned to the network devices? Second if you remove the switch from the network (between E3200 and E3000) does the issue still persist... Once powercycle the whole network and then check whether it happens or not.

  • [solved] Arch linux access point with multiple interfaces for the NAT

    Hi, I have a router running Arch linux. It is connected via LAN (let's call it eth0) to the internet. It has a second LAN interface, eth1, and a wireless interface in master mode, wlan0.
    Now, Everything works perfectly except providing network connectivity on eth1 and wlan0 simultaneously. I followed the guide in the "Internet share" wiki article and use dnsmasq/hostapd for the AP. It appears as if all traffic from the router is sent to the wlan0 interface, even if it came in through eth1 (for example, dhcp requests). I cannot really find information how to solve this. The words "bonding" and "iptables" are floating around, but there is not really an easy to understand tutorial for this.
    What do I need to do to use both the eth1 and wlan0 interface (for different clients!) on my router?
    Best regards, and thank you in advance

    /e: This seems to be my problem: http://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7000318 How do I solve this using the usual iptables? (The way described in the article doesn't work: "RTNETLINK answers: No such process" errors.)

    Or you could bridge eth1 and wlan0, and make dnsmasq bind/listen on that bridge...

  • I had 2 acts with different apple ids and recently my notes on all 3 devices disappeared

    my notes on my iphone 4S, my original ipad & macbk pro disappeared
    i had 2  apple accts each with a different id. one was an aol address & the other was a me.com from mobile me
    i tried to consolidate and the ipad and iphone worked beautifully merging the info/data
    However, my macbk is resisting.
    Can i safely wipe out the mobile me acct on the macbk and will all merge together
    right now, the 2 mobile devices are perfect, but my macbk is missing all my most recent notes
    Any suggestions on how to make all the same without losing anything
    or duplicating to much?
    all software is the most current
    thnks

    You cant delete an Apple ID permanently, you can just stop using it. Your GameCenter is linked to the Apple ID that your phone uses to download stuff. So whatever ID is linked to your phone when you download things from th AppStore and iTunes is also the account that is linked to your GameCenter. if you keep switching accounts thats why the random accounts keep popping up, just stick to one and you should be grand.

  • How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

    How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

    The Guest Network function of the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme cannot be enabled when the device is in Bridge Mode. Unfortunately, with another router...the Telus...upstream on your network, Bridge Mode is indicated as the correct setting for all other routers on the network.
    If you can replace the Telus gateway with a simple modem (that performs no routing functions), you should be able to configure either the Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme....whichever is connected to the modem....to provide a Guest Network.

  • Is there any way I can control which specific access point I connect (and stay connected) to from amongst a set of access points with the same SSID?

    I'm working from a boat in a harbor in which the ISP has deployed numerous access points around the periphery.  All the access points share the same SSID and each is configured to use either channel 1, 6 or 11.   From my location, there are over a dozen of these access points "visible" (based on the the output of WiFi Scanner) with a range of RSSI and S/N values that vary over time.
    The ISP has told me that the quality of my connection should be "perfectly fine" for any access point with an RSSI value better than -75, but I know from experience that my connection quality is miserable (i.e. < 50Kbps download) for almost all of these, including those with RSSI values better than -75.  There is at least one exception, however, which gives me on the order of 2Mbps download, which is "great" in this context.
    I've tried using a more powerful USB antenna plugged into my MacBook Air (mid 2011), but as far as I can tell, it really doesn't make much difference.  Neither does my location within the boat.   The overriding factor seems to be which access point I happen to connect up to.
    I should point out that the closest access points are about 75 yards away, with many of them being several hundred yards away or more.  I'm guessing that even though the signal strength of some of the distant access points is causing them to get "chosen" some times, the results are unacceptable due to the distance.
    I'm hoping that I can determine, through experimentation, which access point(s) provide(s) acceptable performance and then configure my Mac to limit my connection to those points through whatever mechanism I need to use (e.g. channel, MAC id, etc.).

    Establishing a wireless connection with a client computer is left to the access point for various reasons. One reason that your Mac may not connect to the strongest access point is that it may have reached a limit of the number of clients it can serve, leaving it unable to accept a connection with another. The limit may not be very large.
    Suppose that happens, and your Mac establishes a connection with a more distant access point having a weaker signal. Then, suppose a client drops off the network. Doesn't this mean your Mac will switch to the stronger access point? Not necessarily. The throughput delivered to and from your Mac would have to drop below a threshold specified in the AP for it to drop the client, leaving your Mac free to connect with another one. The reason for this is to prevent rapid switching from one AP to another in an area in which two signals are of approximately equal quality. If that were to occur the frequent and repetitive handshaking between the two devices would slow throughput to zero.
    In an environment in which several access points are broadcasting the same SSID, Apple provides no insight as to how it determines which access point to choose. This is the reason I suspect this "choice" is a function of the router, or access point. The connection originates with it, not the Mac.
    Now, what would solve your dilemma would be to determine a way to control the access point with which your Mac connects, by specifying the access point's unique MAC address for example. In this happy circumstance, you could maintain an editable "whitelist" or "blacklist" of the harbor's access points and be able to choose which among them you prefer.
    I do not believe OS X maintains such a record of MAC addresses though, only those of the routers it uses. If I am correct about that, such a solution is unlikely to exist. Don't let that discourage you from searching for one though... I would concentrate on something like "selecting access point by specific MAC address".
    I did find this patent application though:
    Roaming Network Stations Using A Mac Address Identifier To Select New Access Point
    Perhaps it's a start

  • Wi-Fi Access Point with B Channel or Wi-Fi with B Channel

    What does Wi- Fi with B channel or Wi-Fi Access point with B Channel mean. Can someone explain me. I am confused

    I don't know what your asking.  if your talking about 802.11b, that is a standard and you can compare the difference of 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, 802.11n and or 802.11ac. Wireless devices, that means client devices have to be able to support the standard that the access point is using.  So if an access point is 802.11b only, the wireless client device has to be able to support 802.11b.  If for example, the access point is 802.11b/g/a/n/ac, that means the client has to be able to support at least one of those standards to be able to connect.
    Just take a look at the standards,  here is a link to a quick comparison.

  • Mimo access points with Static WEP security do not allow connection speeds above 54mbps

    I am getting this message:
    Access Connections - Mimo access points with Static WEP security do not allow connection speeds above 54mbps
    If I switch from WEP to WAP i do not get the message but I still only get 54mbps speed.  I have a Linksys Wireless-N Broadband Router.  Is there a setting that I am missing???

    Yes you need to use WPA-AES or WPA2-AES, or no encryption, to go faster than 54Mbps. This is part of the 802.11n spec.
    That's not so bad, because if you have the right 802.11n card and use the right settings you can go up to 300Mbps!
    What bites is that the 802.11n card which comes with X-Series ThinkPads is the Intel 4965AGN. It does not support the broader 802.11n 40MHz channel width option, limiting the top speed to 130Mbps .
    The new ThinkPads based on the Montevina/Centrino 2 platform will most likely use the Intel WiFi Link 5100/5300 802.11n/WiMax cards, which I hope will fix this, coz I'm going to buy one!

  • Looking for an Access Point with 2 Ethernet ports and powered via PoE

    Hi Gurus,
    I am looking for an Access Point with 2 Ethernet ports and the access point can be powered via PoE. I have been assigned with a requirement where the rooms need to have access point as well as an Ethernet Cable provided from the Access Point as a backup for connectivity.
    The room only has one data cable coming from the main IT room as well does not have a spare power socket to power the Access Point. Will be good if it can be centrally controlled or controller based.
    Any recommendations?
    Regards
    J

    For the backup plan, the cheapest solution may be to just run a couple new cat5e drops to the room(est cost $250). If not then purchase a small Cisco POE switch for the room(est cost $2k). For wireless I would purchase a POE enabled Cisco AP. But you will need to verify the POE switch/blade you will be connecting the AP to can power the AP you buy. I got burned by that issue when we purchased some Cisco 1251 AP's with dual radios and they needed more power than our 4500 POE blades could handle. We were told we would need to purchase new 48 port 10/100/1000 blades or power injectors. Our Cisco sales vendor took the heat for that mistake.

  • WAP54G as Access Point with another WAP54G as Repeater

    I've got two WAP54G's.  Both are the 3.1 hardware model and I've updated to the latest firmware on both (3.0.5)...
    The first WAP, is hardwired to my router.  That WAP works great.
    I'd like to to use the second WAP54G as a repeater for the first.  I've read through the Linksys docs and done a bunch of googling.  I confess that I'm still not getting it.
    Some info about root WAP:
    - Set the SSID
    - Channel 6
    - WPA2-Personal
    - Static IP
    Some questions about setting up the 2nd as a repeater:
    1) Do I need to run it on a different channel?  11 perhaps?
    2) Do I need to configure it with a different SSID than the root WAP?
    3) The linksys docs indicate that when I configure the 2nd WAP in "repeater" mode I need to enter the root WAPs wireless MAC address.  But the root WAP doesn't seem to have a "wireless" mac, just a "MAC" (it doesn't seem to have two different MAC addresses to pick from).
    4) Should I configure this with a static IP address compatible with my LAN?  The root router has a static IP assigned to it, do I assign another unique IP to this one?
    5) Do I need to restart after the config changes?
    6) Can I expect DHCP to propogate from my DSL modem through my root WAP, over the repeater connection, and to devices server by the repeater?
    In general, I'm a little confused about what "repeater" mode should do for me.
    Do I setup the repeater-mode (with the MAC address) and then expect the WAP to "mirror" the root?
    Or do I setup the repeater as if it were, itself, a "root" (give it a SSID, an IP, a security setup, etc.) and then just expect the repeater setting as an alternative to what would otherwise be a hardwire to my dsl modem?
    And how do I know when it's working?  Do I need to restart?
    Gary

    The WAP54G's repeater mode essentially sets up the 2nd access point as an extender of the main (root) access point. Since you will be extending the signal, you will need to configure the same wireless settings on both devices. SSIDs, channels, security settings need to be identical. Do set a STATIC IP address for your APs. If your network allows you to use the default IP (192.168.1.245) of the AP, you may set the 2nd unit to have an IP address like 192.168.1.246. The APs need to be in the same network.
    An essential step in setting up the AP to repeater mode is indicating the main AP's wireless MAC address. This will register the main device to the second AP and will get them to communicate. To get this info, you need to:
    1. Login to the main AP's setup page.
    2. Go to Status.
    3. Click on the Wireless subtab.
    4. Retrieve the MAC address indicated.
    Register this info unto the 2nd AP and Save Settings. You may need to reboot the devices to get the connection going. Once the devices are in sync, the client devices should be getting IP addresses assigned by the DHCP server (your DSL modem). To confirm that your setup is operational, you should be able to roam on the network in a location you would not have network access to without the AP on wireless repeater mode.

  • API for setting Access points with PEAP programmatically

    Dear Godly developers,
    Would like to find out if there is any APIs for setting Access points with PEAP programmatically?
    Regards
    hAoZ

    Thanks for your response. We don't have the Wireless LAN Controller installed and have only configured directly through the AP's, which don't seem to have any configuration changes regarding Aironet IE's. Is there a config change that needs to be made just on the AP's? Or is the Wireless LAN Controller software necessary to make this change?
    Thanks again.

    I recently updated my e-mail address with apple, but now it does not show all the "purchased" music that I purchased under my old e-mail address.  How can I re-gain access to those hundreds of purchased songs?

    You are trying to find a loophole to circumvent a basic rule that prohibits the transfer of purchased content from one Apple ID to another.
    Content tied to an Apple ID are bound to that Apple ID forever. You can not merge or trade accounts. Well, not (officially) anyway...
