Help needed to setup AX as a router for Wild Blue Internet

Hello,
I have new satellite internet service with Wild Blue and for three weeks now I have been trying to figure out how to set up a router, so my husband and kids can get online on their laptops. The modem is currently attached to the oldest desktop we have (the one listed below). They told me I could use any router, but that doesn't work, because the two routers I got I had to bring back to the store because I could not read the windows based setup "wizard." Tonight, once again, I plugged in the AX and connected the ethernet cable of my modem to the ethernet port of the AX. When I try to run airport utilities, it's not showing me anything, however. It's not picking up anything at all. This desktop does not have an airport card, but that should not be the problem according to the documentation I read. All the laptops naturally have airport cards. I am at my wits end, and confused too, since my modem only has one ethernet port and I cannot connect my desktop and connect the airport express at the same time. Is that the problem ? Any help would be appreciated. Wild Blue specifically states to not offer help with routers, I read somewhere on their site. If I had known that I would not have signed a two year commitment

Hello PClaus. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
In order to administer your new AirPort Express Base Station (AXn), the computer has to have the AirPort Utility installed. This will either be available with OS X Leopard or on the installation CD that came with the AXn. If your desktop Mac is not wireless, then the only way to access the AXn would be to connect the AXn directly to the Mac with Ethernet or connect both the AXn and your Mac to an Ethernet switch. Since you state that your laptops are wireless, I suggest using one of them to do the administration. Let me know if you were successful.

    Thanks Amol for the advice.
    My friend doesn't belong to an engineering background and had not worked in a manufacturing environment.
    He holds an MBA degree specialised in systems and has worked in software companies supporting software projects and the functions(like HR,Procurement in the same setup) as a software quality guy.
    Moreover the modules mentioned by you requires engineering background with manufacturing exposure.
    He had enquired for the course at siemens and they said that he may not be suitable for any of the modules offered by them as per the above reasons.They also mentioned that they have to check with SAP Labs for expert opinion.
    Please provide your inputs.

  • Need to setup monitoring aon multiple ports for IDS

    I have a cisco 3845. I need to need to setup monitoring aon multiple ports for IDS on 2 ports. How do I do this.
    Also,
    Is there a way to make ports on the switch portion act like hubs.
    Thanks

    I assume that you are referring to the Ethernet Switch Module in the 3845. If so it should support SPAN. Here is a SPAN configurations guide:

  • Help needed in SD VC Assigning Object Dep. for all values at the 1 time

    Dear, Gurus
    I am successful in achieving pricing in VC the long way example: If Characteristic is Car_Color and values Blue, Red. I assign
    $self.Z_CarPrice=u2019Redu2019 and it works. Z_CarPrice is basically the variant condition linkage with tables SDCOM and VKOND.
    My question is how can I achieve the above by assigning it to the header so that it automatically enters the code $self into all values without me having to go into it 1 by 1 and assigning the codes? Or what is the best way in achieving the results?
    If I have 3 characteristics ex: Car_Model, Car_Color, Car_Size? 100's of values?     4th characteristic is Z_CarPrice inside this I have entered all the Values from the 3 characteristics.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi,
    Try these steps and hope will definitely resolve your issue
    Create one variant table VT_BASE_PRICE with combinations of the char Z_COLOR,Z_MODEL and Z_SIZE as key fields
    Table Structure
    Z_Color               
    Z_Model
    Z_Size
    Z_Car_Price
    Table Contents    
    Z_Color          Z_Model                         Z_Size          Z_Car_Price
    RED          Honda          Big          BP_RED_HONDA_BIG
    RED          Honda          Small          BP_RED_HONDA_SML
    Maintain the table values with all possible combinations and for each combination enter a unique key under Z_car_Price column. Remember the variant key length Max is 26  and you can use any unique value which should give a meaning by looking at
    Once maintained the table write a dependency
    Table VT_BASE_PRICE
    (Z_COLOR = Z_COLOR,
    Z_MODEL = Z_MODEL,
    Z_SIZE = Z_SIZE,
    Z_CAR_PRICE = $self.Z_CAR_PRICE)
    Thus for each combination no need to write the code to infer the variant key. It will automatically choose from table as per configuration values entered.For each variant key you need to maintain price in condition records for condition type.

  • Router for small business Internet connection

    One of our clients recently switched ISPs to Speakeasy who installed a Hatteras HN 407 bridge. We have had Internet connectivity problems using their SonicWall 3060 firewall, and we experienced similar problems when attempting to use a newer Sonicwall TZ180. We temporarily installed a Linksys W54GT router, which has been working perfectly; however, we would like to have a more robust router for their 25 user network - additional security options, performance, VPN, two WAN connections, etc. Can you recommend a small business router with 2 WAN connections? This customer has a business ethernet 3Mbps (up and down) Internet connection, uses an online medical scheduling program, normally has 10 - 20 uses using the Internet connection and will be installing a backup DSL line that we would like to use for load balancing.

    Our recommendation for Dual WAN would be RV082 This would be the prefect VPN router for small  Business and if you are looking for more ports on  the Ethernet, then we would recommend the RV016

  • Do I need an ethernet switch or new router for IP camera setup with old Airport Express

    Hello,
    I am trying to setup a third party Foscam IP camera to my network so that I can ultimately use it as a baby monitor, and am having some difficulty.  I currently still have an old Airport Express (with one ethernet port only).  This is preventing me from setting up the initial camera because I don't have another ethernet port to plug it in to on the router.  I am wondering if I can just buy an ethernet switch and have it "split" the ethernet from my modem to both the camera and the Airport (I do need to check with my ISP provider if they give me two separate IP address... but if they do, would this work?). 
    I am fairly sure however, that my ISP provider (comcast) only provides one IP for my account.  Does this mean I would have to buy a new router altogether with more than one ethernet port on it or one with a WAN port?  Would I, in this case, have to plug the modem into the WAN port on the router, and then the camera to one of the ethernet ports on the router?
    I consider myself fairly tech savy, but when it comes to routers, IPs, LAN, WAN, etc. I get a bit lost.  This has been creating quite a headache for me and any help would be appreciated!  Thanks in advance!

    I am wondering if I can just buy an ethernet switch and have it "split" the ethernet from my modem to both the camera and the Airport (I do need to check with my ISP provider if they give me two separate IP address... but if they do, would this work?).
    Sorry, but this won't work as the modem expects only a single device ... either a computer or a router to be connected to it. Unless your modem is actually a combination modem & router or gateway device, then you would need a different router to solve your networking problem.

  • Help needed to setup my Printer to work on home network...Please!!!

    I recently purchased my first Mac, a G5 PowerPC. I have connected it to my home network (3 windows PC's and my G5) by way of a LAN router and everything works fine except getting my printer to function correctly.
    I have an Epson DX4850 which works fine when connected directly to my G5 via USB but I cannot get it to work properly when connected to one of the Windows's PC's, its prefered location.
    I have done the following;
    Opened the Printer Setup Utility and clicked "Add"
    In the Printer Browser I selected "More Printers"
    In the 2 drop down menu's I selected "Windows Printing" and "Network Neighborhood"
    Then selected the name of my home network, then the name of the computer the printer is connected to then the actual printer.
    The problem seems to be that the Printer Model is listed as "Generic". When I try direct it toward my specific printer all I can find are GIMP drivers under Epson. If I select "Other" in order to navigate to my specific printer driver I seem to have trouble locating it.
    Any help would be appreciated
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I recently purchased my first Mac, a G5 PowerPC. I
    have connected it to my home network (3 windows PC's
    and my G5) by way of a LAN router and everything
    works fine except getting my printer to function
    correctly.
    I suspect that I know why. Several printer vendors, including Epson & HP, have for reasons which make sense to them elected to NOT properly support the CUPS print system which OS X uses and has used since 10.2. Those who support CUPS properly deliver drivers which will work with any connection, including being shared across a network. Those who don't, well...
    In the particular case of Epson, they're trying to push this thing: <http://www.buyepson.co.uk/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?PID=C12C824025>.
    Actually, it does make more sense to use a device which puts the printer directly on the network than to share it from a computer. However, it seems... unlikely that anyone with sense will actually buy a 160GBP thingie to attach to a 100GBP MFD... Buying a second MFD would appear to make more sense.
    I have an Epson DX4850 which works fine when
    connected directly to my G5 via USB but I cannot get
    it to work properly when connected to one of the
    Windows's PC's, its prefered location.
    I have done the following;
    Opened the Printer Setup Utility and clicked "Add"
    In the Printer Browser I selected "More Printers"
    In the 2 drop down menu's I selected "Windows
    Printing" and "Network Neighborhood"
    Then selected the name of my home network, then the
    name of the computer the printer is connected to then
    the actual printer.
    The problem seems to be that the Printer Model is
    listed as "Generic".
    There should be a specific GIMP driver for it. I think. I'm not sure, as the DX4850 isn't sold in the US, and many/most of the GIMP drivers for Epsons are written in the US. Which means that there may not be a driver specifically for that device, because the guys who'd write the driver for it haven't been able to get their hands on a machine to work with. If you can find out which print engine is at the heart of the MFD (the Stylus C86 or C88 engine is a possibility, but I don't know, I've never actually touched a DX4850) you can use the driver for that printer and it'll work just fine. At least, my old CX5400 used to work using the C84 GIMP driver.
    When I try direct it toward my
    specific printer all I can find are GIMP drivers
    under Epson.
    This is because Epson's own drivers don't do sharing. This is a Feature, according to Epson. That way it doesn't interfere with their external, expensive, USB-to-ethernet print thingie. The GIMP drivers do do sharing.
    If I select "Other" in order to
    navigate to my specific printer driver I seem to have
    trouble locating it.
    There isn't one from Epson. (Unless you have 160 pounds you're not doing anything with...) There may be a GIMP driver which will work.
    Any help would be appreciated

  • Help needed to setup template item list to send attachement within email te

    Hi! I read everything there was in the bookshelf on the setting of template on Outbound communication, advanced template and my main concern, template items list and I still can not send a template email with an attachment inside. I managed to send the email with the attachment in the message body but not send mail with an attachment separately.
    Is there a special feature or setting to the template items list or in the Siebel file system that needs to be done ? I've try to put a tag pointing to the template item in the advanced template but got no result. I've tried everything but got no result.
    My main goal is to send a template email containing the attachement of an official letter inside. Ideally, I would like the letter as an attachment to be populated by the data of the BC associated (values substitution). This is already working in the advance template. But that's another story. I would be happy if only I can send the email template to include the letter as attachement.
    Thanks in advance for helping me!

    Yes we do. Even if we go with F9 or by the send email from the file menu, the sending of emails is ok. It's just that it wont send attchment as define in the template item list. All settings are ok and are as specified in related bookshelf. By now, i'm looking if there is any activex control missing for outbond email OR if there is any html tags to put inside the advanced template so that the application could properly attach the file to the email. If you have aswer on you side, it would be appreciated.

  • Help Needed to set up Wireless Modem/Router

    Howdy all,
    I have a new MacBook Pro connected to the internet via a BigPond supplied Speedtouch modem through ethernet cable. I have an Open Network 824RLW router/adsl modem that I would like to use for a wireless connection.
    I just can't seem to get it to work. It says connected to wlan-app...
    I read some of the discussions here and on whirlpool and there seems to be concerns about the extreme cards in the MBP.
    Please can someone tell me what settings (Mac and Modem) I need to make to get the MBP to talk to the router/modem. I can get into the modem settings easily enough and think I have set it up correctly but don't have bigpond support to know exactly what needs to be done.
    Thanks.

    Two things helped me fixing this issue:
    1.) Mac OS X Diresctory Services v10.6 by Arek Dreyer and Ben Greisler. Find it @ Peachpit Press
    2.) http://support.apple.com/kb/TA23516
    This knowledge base article has been written for 10.4. But with a little understanding of 10.6 and the changes between both OS versions it was simple to get back to a clean Standalone server.
    With that it was as easy as cake to promote the server to a replica!

  • Help needed to setup wireless printing

    I have less than a month's experience of using a Mac but am really enjoying my purchase so far.
    The one issue that I have not been able to solve is printing.
    I have a HP Photosmart P1000 which I can successfully print to via USB but I have had no success when trying wirelessly using a Belkin Wireless Print Server (model F1UP0001). My PC was easy to setup using Belkin's setup disk but they omitted to add Macs to their list of operating systems!!
    I've tried following instructions given in a post on here but it didn't work
    Could anyone please offer any suggestions to find a fix?
    Thank you.
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    The driver provided by HP doesn't work for network printing, because it bypasses the CUPS system. The only comm protocol you get is what was written into the driver - USB. Install the hpijs and ESP ghostscript driver set from:
    http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
    Second issue - the windows setup software enters the server queue name during setup, but we don't have that software on OS X. You need to find the queue name in the print server docs, then enter it next to IP address in OS X Printer Setup. Common queue names are L1, lp, lpt1, etc.
    Wait - just remembered I downloaded that manual for someone elses's question. The queue name is lp1 (el-p-one). So in Printer Setup select IP printer > LPD, and enter IP address and that queue name.
    Good luck.

  • Phantom item issue, help needed with setup

    Hello,
    we are currently facing an issue that we have two goods which are exactly the same, apart from one component. These are marked as item number X and Y
    We want to integrate this into our system with one item numer Z with the option for the puchaser to choose which of the Z item they like.
    For example, this is the setup we are looking for;
    Customer has two item numbers X and Y. This is inserted as a purchase request, we then want the SAP System to assign this as item Z (component Y) or Z (component X).
    We want to have this setup so we have to maintain one item record while still keeping two items which are slightly different in the component setup. We are trying to avoid keeping two item numbers in stock
    Is there a way to have this setup?
    Thanks in advance!

    It sounds like you need to remove the attachment from the Publishing field to allow the OOTB approval to flow for the item's attachments. Have you contacted the migration tool vendor regarding this bug in their tool?

  • Help needed to setup to Network Print Server

    Hi,
    I am trying to configure the following to print from my Mac:
    D-Link DP-301U USB print server
    HP Color LaserJet 3500
    MacBook Core Duo OS X 10.4.8
    Very little information is available on both D-Link and HP website.
    The D-Link installation guide says to install via AppleTalk.
    AppleTalk has been activated on my AirPort as well as on the Web configuration of Print Server. However I cannot see any printer on adding a printer.
    In the Add Printer Browser, I can see my print server on Bonjour. When selected, I am supposed to choose my HP printer, but it is no on the HP printer list.
    Only Generic PostScript can be selected, however when printing, it prints our garbage.

    A long time ago, I worked on a print spooler and was lent a JetDirect
    box from HP to test with. A JetDirect card is in your LaserJet, I believe.
    (One of the protocols it supported was localtalk, BTW). I think the
    d-link isn't forwarding your localtalk packets. Anyway, one of the
    things I remember is that the JetDirect spoke PCL, so that's another
    consideration a driver has to deal with. The garbage you're seeing
    is raw postscript. It needs to be rasterized and translated to PCL.
    Please bear with me, my experience is very old, and there are gaps
    in my knowledge. But I think this is do-able. I think the first step is
    to add the printer directly by clicking here,
    The location of the printer should be the address of the print server
    (or canonical name if you're ever going to change addresses). The
    device should be appsocket/jetdirect. The device uri should be
    socket://nameoripaddressofdevice. The make should be HP and
    the model/driver should be one of the Laserjet series, gimp-print.
    I don't know which one, my experience ended around Laserjet 5, and
    so do the drivers! But fundamentally they have to do the same thing.
    They use the gimp-print package to rasterize the postscript and
    encapsulate it into PCL. So I would bet the LaserJet 6 driver will work.
    I'm sure everything posted here is correct, and that my experience
    is too old and I don't know enough to know why this won't work,
    but it's not a lot of effort, and if I were you I'd give it a try.
