E4200 not strong enough from garage to house??? WHY???

Hi everybody,
I own a cisco E4200 and was told  that it could cover my whole house with wireless. I live in the garage which is disconnected from the house by about 20ft if that. I hokked everything up and when i am in the house my iphone cannot detect the wireless! I hope that there is something that could be done because i spent a lot of money on this router thinking it could cover the house i live in. It is a single story house. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO MAKE THE RANGE BETTER AND/OR SIGNAL STRONGER PLEASE! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE! - ME

Try to optimize the wireless settings in the router management page:
A] With the help of Cisco Connect Software (if at all you have installed the router with the help of this software)
1] Open the software and go to the option which says "Router Settings"
2] Then click on the option which says "Advanced Settings" which will take you to the router's configuration page.
3] Then go to the Wireless tab, keep network mode as mixed,
For Channel Settings of 2.4 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, 11..
For Channel Settings of 5 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 40 or 161...
B] If you haven't installed Cisco Connect then you can log on to the router's user interface using it's default IP address in the browser which is 192.168.1.1 and type in 'admin' as the password leaving the username field blank. This will take you to the router's web interface and then follow steps as mentioned above to make the changes.
Then check the connectivity status…

  • MBP 2.4 Not strong enough? Dropped frames? Tutorial Files

    I just got the book FCP Editing (PEACH PIT), editing monk, sea world and commercial.
    Keep getting errors that DISK not fast enough (running from external HD), or too many RT (turned it to SAFE=still got error), any idea? The whole project is in red, perhaps I don't have a setting set up correct? Surely this system is CPU FPU fast enough.
    Advice?
    Thanks

    Perhaps your settings aren't correct.
    What is the format of the media, and what is the flavor of your 'external HD' -- FW400? USB? FW800?
    What are your sequence settings?
    Welcome to the forum... we'll get this straightened out!!

  • Plusnet Technicolor Router Not Strong Enough - can Airport Express Boost Signal?

    Hello,
    I'm not a techie, and need step by step guidance. I have a Plusnet Technicolour router in my living room. The signal is fine except in our bedroom. I have an airport express (new version) and I realised I can't use it wirelessly to boost the signal. Can I do this via a wire from my plusnet router to the express? If yes, what exactly do I need to do? I have a macbook air circa 2010 if it helps...
    Thanks community support!

    Power up the AirPort Express for a few minutes, then hold in the reset button on the back of the Express for 10-12 seconds. Release the reset button and allow a full minute for the Express to restart to a slow, blinking amber light.
    Connect the Ethernet cable from a LAN <--> port on the PlusNet router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Express.
    Ethernet can be run 300+ feet or about 100 meters with virtually no loss, so you can locate the Express just about anywhere you want that the cable will reach.
    On your Mac....
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Other WiFi Devices
    Click on AirPort Express
    The utility will take a minute to analyze things, then produce a window that looks like the example below, with an updated picture of the AirPort Express:
    Network Name.......Type in the exact name of your PlusNet wireless network
    Base Station Name....Type in a name that you want to call the Express
    Password......Type in the exact same password that you use for the PlusNet wireless network
    Verify Password
    Click Next
    The utility will set up everything for you. When you see the message of Setup Complete in a minute or two click Done.
    Close AirPort Utility and you will have a much "bigger" network than you did before. This assumes that your PlusNet router is usingWPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless security settings, which almost all modern routers are using.

  • AirPort Extreme signal not strong enough

    I have an AirPort Extreme. The signal is strong everywhere except in the kitchen, 15 meters but one story  below...thick walls, concrete. Can I extend it using a simple Fritz Box (AVM Fritz wireless LAN 300E)?

    Yes, follow the directions in KB 107454, AirPort Extreme and Express: Using WDS to create a network from multiple base stations.

  • Living in Africa, internet not strong enough for software update

    Greetings Apple,
    I'm living in Mozambique right now and finding it very difficult to update the Apple updates. The internet that I am able to access is about as good as it gets here in this country. I'm going to have to find a way to do it and hope you will offer some suggestions.
    Here is what happens:
    When I go to the usual apple menu drop-down and select software update, it goes through the initial process, then begins the download, with the box: "downloading 2 items - downloading Mac OSX Update Combined . . . 1.37 GB of 1.06 GB - About 5 seconds"
    but, part way through, something goes amiss (probably the Mozambican internet is interrupted as it usually is) and I never even get to the place where I can then install them. I consistently get a message box that says: "The update 'Mac OS X Update Combined can't be saved. Software Update can't connect to the update server. Make sure you're connected to the internet, and then try again.'"
    Is there a way that I can go to the apple website, get the list of what is included in the upgrades, and then download them one at a time? That would help those of us living in less-than-ideal internet situations.
    thanks for your assistance!
    Autumn

    Thanks for your reply.
    I have also been doing this that you suggest.
    I have gone to the Mac OSX v10.6.6 Update Combo page
    and been trying over and over to download it, but am not able to. Also tried the Mac OSX v10.6.6 update (not combo). It downloaded 55.1 of 144 MB quite well, then stopped downloading, even though the internet connection was fine, and didn't go anywhere. This problem has been happening consistently for me.
    I have gone to the download site and individually downloaded the following:
    I did iTunes 10
    I did Safari 5.0.3
    what else am I missing?
    Thanks again,
    Autumn

  • Empty Trash does not delete photo from Masters File.  Why?

    When I delete a photo and then empty the trash the file still remains in the Masters File in the iPhoto Library. This is concerning since these are large files that don't need to be there. Am I doing something wrong. How do I get rid of these unwanted picture files?

    Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Fix #2
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select options #1, #2, #5 and #6.
    Click to view full size
    Fix #3
    Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If you have a lot of photos that you've deleted and the Masters copy is still in the library Fix #3 may be the only one that will remove those rogue files from the library. You'll just have to check after running each.

  • VLD-2771 System privileges may not allow extraction from source ....??

    When I try to deploy the mappings in OWB Deployment Manager, I got a Warning "VLD-2771 System privileges may not allow extraction from source ORDER_ITEMS". WHY? ^^""
    ========================================
    I define a Runtime Repository Connections "ORACLE_HW_RUNTIME"
    Host Name: localhost
    Port Number: 1521
    Service Name: GBGLM
    Connect As User: owb904rr
    Runtime Repository Owner: owb904rr
    and the "ORACLE_HW_RUNTIME" is in "ORACLE_WAREHOUSE" module, the "ORACLE_WAREHOUSE" use the link "OE" and the owner is "OWBUSER"
    p.s. the table "ORDER_ITEMS" is in "OE" schema. I had grant DBA to "owb904rr" and "OWBUSER".
    then use "ORACLE_HW_RUNTIME" to deploy the Mappings "WH_ORDERS_MAP". What I need to do for deploy?
    ^_^||

    Anyone with similar experience using SQL Server as the source?
    First I get: VLD-2771: System privileges may not allow extraction from source Product.
    Then if i ignore the warning and deploy, i get
    ORA-06550: line 15, column 18:
    PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    I have a public database link to the sql server database.
    When I create the mapping, I am able to see the tables and create the map. So why this problem when deploying. Which user is to be granted access to the source tables. I belive we cannot grant access to remote database tables using a database link. So what is the work around?
    Any help is highly appreciated.

  • I am trying to install a program on my Mac Book Pro Retina from a Apple SuperDrive. Every time I run the installer, it says I do not have enough memory to install. However, I definitely have enough memory (186.74 GB). Any ideas why?

    I am trying to install a program on my Mac Book Pro Retina from a Apple SuperDrive. Every time I run the installer, it says I do not have enough memory to install. However, I definitely have enough memory (186.74 GB). The program takes only 550 MB. Any ideas why?

    Thanks for the clarification on the terms. I consider myself proficent at my computer, but not exactly in its inner-workings! I have 8 GB of memory installed.
    I am still confused as to why I do not have any space for the program. This is the exact error message I get: "There is not enough free space on Macintosh HD disk. The Print Shop 2 application requires about 550 MB to be installed. Free some disk space and try again."
    Thank you again for your help.

  • ITunes error: The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. is preventing my iPhone from syncing. How do I fix it?

    The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. is preventing my iPhone from syncing. How do I fix it? I have changed permissions until blue in the face. What is going on? Why is this so hard? I just want to sync my phone.
    A little background. My iTunes library is in a shared folder. My Aperture library is on a .DMG in the shared folder with "ignore permissions on this volume" checked. I have added myself with read and write privileges to everything that I can find. What gives? Thanks in advance.

    PC, windows7, iphone4, updated iphone (5.0.1) and itunes (10.5.2.11) software. Started getting "iphone cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" message.
    Solution I found that worked: Uncheck "Sync photos from Iphone" in Itunes / Devices / Photos tab.

  • I have deleted my private folder and do not have enough space to reinstall my operating system. How can i transfer files from my hard drive to an USB drive to free up space when the operating system isn't working. or do i need to erase disk?

    i have deleted my private folder and do not have enough space to reinstall my operating system. How can i transfer files from my hard drive to an USB drive to free up space when the operating system isn't working. or do i need to erase disk through disk utilities without erasing data (but will it delete my programs such as photoshop, office, creative suite?

    Connect the computer to another Mac and put it in FireWire Target Disk mode, or use the Disk Utility to clone the drive or image specific folders with the USB drive as the target. After you've copied off everything you want, you'll likely need to erase the drive and reinstall the applications.

  • I am trying to burn a dvd and it will not allow me to do this because it states that i do not have enough space for encoding disk. how do i free up space and from where?

    I am trying to burn a dvd and it will not allow me to do this because it states I do not have enough space for encoding. how do i free up space and from where?

    iDVD can only use your startup hard disk for the "scratch space" it needs for calculations during the encoding process.  25 GB is a good average requirement, but a large project (3 or 4 hours of content) might require more.
    To free up space, you will have to move items to an external hard drive and/or delete items you no longer want.
    Please note that iDVD can't use and external hard drive for this "scratch space".

  • My podcasts do not show the pictures only the sound when I import them to iTunes from Garage Band.  How do I get the pictures to show up in iTunes?

    My podcasts do not show the pictures only the sound when I import them to iTunes from Garage Band.  How do I get the pictures to show up in iTunes?

    Well, all I can tell you is that if your file is an m4a with chapter markers, those markers having suitably sized images attached, and you drag it into the Music area of iTunes (so that it appears as a song) in List view, when you play it and then command-click on the small image in the header (next to the progress bar) you should see your embedded images.
    If this isn't happening the best place to ask would be in the GarageBand forum: my own experience of GB is rather out of date and in any case I've never used it for podcasting.
