Home sharing works on primary wifi but not via Access Point

I have two wifi routers set up at either ends of the house.  The primary router (Netgear DGN2000) is connected to an Access Point (Edimax EW-7416APN) via a D-link Powerline ethernet connection.  Both are configured with identical SSID names/passwords meaning I get seamless switching between the units when walking from one end of the house to the other.  Internet connectivity works fine when connected to either unit on laptop, phone and ipad.
The only issue I am having is with itunes Home Sharing.  My main PC is connected to the primary router via a further D-link Powerline ethernet connection.  When I am within the wifi signal of the primary router, the Home Sharing library from the Main PC shows on my ipad2 and I can access all music no problem.  However, if I walk to the other end of the house whilst playing a track then as soon as the wifi connection switches to the AP then the track will stop.  When I search for libraries then the Home Sharing library doesn't show.
The Access Point is set to be in AP mode. The latest version of itunes is installed.  The PC is running Windows XP
Any pointers anyone can give with this issue would be very welcomed as our main entertaining room is in the range of the AP wifi.

Do the old "forget this network" while on your home wifi, then reconnect to it.    If that doesn't fix it, it's prob a router/internet issue at your home.    Would need some more info to help futher troubleshoot.

  • Problems with Home Sharing - works with some users but not all

    Hi all,
    On our Mac we have 3 different user accounts. Among the three, home sharing seems to work for two of them, but not three. For example, if I'm logged into User A's account, I'm able to access the library for users B & C. However, B & C are able to see user A's library, but items do not play or transfer. B & C can use each other's shared libraries without a problem.
    Previously, all three users could use the other's libraries. I've done the obvious: restarted the computer, made sure sharing was turned on on all 3 accounts and synced the Apple ID and password on all three iTunes so that they're runing on the same Apple ID account.
    The error I get when trying to transfer songs from A to either B or C is: "There was a problem downloading "[song name]". The URL "" could not be found on the server."
    We're using iTunes 9.0.2.
    Thanks all in advance

  • Home sharing works with one account but not another?

    My family has an apple tv, we've been having problems setting up the home sharing and tried everything. We eventually decided to try my brother's apple id instead of my mother's and it worked. So my question is; why does home sharing not work with one id but works with the other? any suggestions to get it to work with my mother's id?

    Try resetting the Apple TV. enter your mother's ID again. Then remove her ID on iTunes and re-add it. Then see if it works this time.

  • A website will open via wifi but not via 3G. Is this a setting on the iPad?

    A website will open via wifi but not via 3G. Is this a setting on the iPad?

    Probably not.  How's your 3G connection?  I ask because I've had issues when the 3G connection isn't strong.  Same with WiFi too, actually.

  • Apple TV Home Sharing only detects Macbook Pro but not iPads

    Hello
    My Apple TV (2nd gen) will only detect my Macbook Pro on Home Sharing. I have two iPads (1st gen and iPad Mini) both updated to the latest iOS but they just wont show up on apple TV home sharing.
    Any thoughts?
    The software on all devices is up to date, and all devices are connected to the same network.

    Your first generation iPad is only capable of basic AirPlay, instruction for basic AirPlay are:
    Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    Your problems on the iPad mini, indicate a network problem at your end, perhaps the distances are too great or you have interference on your network.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • Home sharing works for apple TV, but no longer works for iPad or iPhone

    Originally I thought the problem was just something was wrong with my iPad.  All of a sudden, whenever I try to load videos from my home sharing library into my iPad, the little circle that indicates the percentage of library that's been loaded would only form a semicircle - half way around, indicating about 50% of the library was loaded, then freezes and loads no more.
    I was having so many problems with my iPad that I did a restore on it.  After the restore, the library did load, but before I played any of the videos, it went back to the way it was before, half loading and freezing.
    I just this week replaced my iphone with a new 5s, and even though I don't really plan on watching videos through home sharing on the iphone, I thought I'd see how it behaved.  It behaved identically to the ipad.
    In the meantime, our apple TV streams home sharing flawlessly, which is good, because if I'm going to have problems with home sharing, I wouldn't want it to be with the apple TV.
    Still, though, I'd like to be able to use my iPad again since It's proven handy in the past.
    I have upgraded to the latest ios on both the iPad and the iPhone, however, the problem didn't start when I upgraded, I used it for a couple of weeks before the problem developed.
    I'm using a virtually new airport extreme for my home network. 
    I can only assume the problem is in itunes somewhere, but where I don't know.

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.

  • Screen Sharing works for alien hosts but not for LAN hosts

    Hello!
    I am having a really strange problem in a customer network. The network is a local private network with one MacOS Server 10.6.8 and around 12 iMacs running MacOS 10.6.8. The server is running headless in cellar so the user maintain the backup via screen sharing from an iMac to the server.
    Since a few weeks they can not login to the server via screen sharing from any local host BUT I can login from my MBP (alien) via ARD or Screen Sharing without any problem. Even hosts connected to the network via VPN can connect to the server via screen sharing.
    In short:
    Every local host gets a message that login is not possible and my MBP and VPN-hosts get connected without any problems with the same credentials.
    At the local clients I get this message in system.log:
    Oct 28 09:33:41 verwaltung1 LKDCHelper[228]: Starting (uid=501)
    Oct 28 09:33:48 verwaltung1 com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[166] (com.apple.Kerberos.renew.plist): Throttling respawn: Will start in 530 seconds

    and at the server I get:
    Oct 28 09:33:48 solserv AppleVNCServer[11503]: no such user: adminloc@LKDC:SHA1.DE03ABCC86F74D11AD139E44388D6B94155B4D9E: 2
    When I connect from VPN or my MBP I get no messages in system.log.
    I tried to kickstart ARD at the server but it does not change anything, I bound the clients to OpenDir of the server with no effect also.
    I do not have any idea what is happening here. Every help is welcome,
    Christop

    Hello MrHoffmann!
    changeip says "The names match. There is nothing to change."
    To give more infos, the server and all the clients are connected to the same network switch, all belong to 192.168.183/24 and when I use my MBP, it is connected via WLAN and gets an IP-address from this server with an IP from this range. my MBP is in the same broadcast domain.
    VPN clients connect via PPTP to the gateway (192.168.183.1) and get IP addresses assigned from 192.168.183.48-52.
    There is no routing between the clients and the server.
    There is no other problem - every client reaches the server for file serivces (AFP/SMB), smtp, imap, DHCP and DNS.
    BTW. screen sharing from the clients worked without a problem when I first setup the network about 1 year ago, but since a few weeks no client that belongs to this network can use screen sharing except for my MBP when I am at customer site.
    History:
    The new SLS is a replacement for an old Windows 2000 Server. Both servers ran in parallel for some time but within different IP-networks (all Macs at 192.168.183/24 - all Windows at 192.168.2/24) the gateway routed between both networks. But now it is time to switch off every windows computer because every service now runs at the SLS. AFAIK the windows 2000 Server is the last Windows machine in the network. We switched off DHCP at the windows server and switched on DHCP at the SLS a few weeks ago. Hm .... maybe there is something wrong? But the clients have fixed ip-addresses.
    Still wondering what is going on here, bye,
    Christoph

  • Wi-fi at home: it works with my laptop, but not with my iphone

    Hey guys. I just got an iphone and i cannot connect to my wi-fi network, but i can with my laptop (it's an hp). Does anyone know anything that i can do to connect? It is password protected, but i entered the password with iphone. Also, when I turn the iphone on after sleep mode, it picks up the network signal, but when i try to go onto the internet or itunes it does not work. Thanks a lot guys!

    I had the exact same problem, your wireless router has a firewall set up not allowing you to access the wi-fi. You need to go to your firewall security setup and you will see your firewall encryption, that's the password your iPhone wants. If the letters are seperated by comma's, do not enter them. For example, I have 128bit encryption, which has 13 sets of letters/numbers seperated by commas, without commas I have a total of 26. Enter that as shown and you should be able to use your wifi at home.
