How do I set up my AEv5 using DHCP with a Netgear DG834Gv5?

Hi,
I've recently bought a MBPro and love it.
I then bought an Airport Extreme to extend my available Wi-Fi distance and increase its speed. It's good, but it's not currently set up as I'd like it to be.
My kit...
Netgear DG834v5 Modem/Wireless Router
Apple Airport Extreme v5
Currently the AEv5 is set up in Bridge mode, with the wireless of the Netgear switched off completely. As I understand it, this makes the Netgear a wired modem, from which the AEv5 acts as the replacement (improved) Wi-Fi mast.
I want to change the AEv5 from Bridge mode to DHCP/DHCP+NAT for the following reasons...
- I can then set up a 'guest' wi-fi network.
- I can then see a full list of the devices interacting with my Wi-Fi signal and block any potential intrusions.
I don't know the implications of whether or not the AEv5 controlling the NAT is a good thing or not, so...
- Can someone please explain the difference and benefits/drawbacks of the AEv5 controlling NAT as well as DHCP?
I then need to know...
- How I can turn off all DHCP/NAT/DHCP+NAT on the Netgear?
- How I can set up the AEv5 to do the DHCP/NAT/DHCP+NAT itself?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've spent hours searching the net already with no luck. I'm out of my depth and out of ideas; if someone knows anything that could help me it'd be great to hear it!
Cheers!

Can't help with Netgear, since I have not used the device that you have there, but can offer a few thoughts about the AirPort Extreme.

Correct. This makes the Netgear a wired modem/router, since it is also configured to handle DHCP and NAT services for the network.

If you want to enable the Guest Network, then the AirPort Extreme must be configured to provide DHCP and NAT services.
If you open AirPort Utility on your Mac, click on the AirPort Extreme icon, click Edit, then click the Network tab at the top of the screen, you will see that the AirPort Extreme is currently configured in a Router Mode of Bridge Mode.....which is the correct setting for the AirPort Extreme with your Netgear modem/router.
To make the AirPort Extreme provide DHCP and NAT service, you would change the setting for the Router Mode to DHCP and NAT. But, do not do this....yet.
The DHCP only setting on the AirPort cannot be used if you want to enable the Guest Network. This setting is rarely used, and would only be required if your Intenet Service Provider is furnishing you with a bank of fixed IP addresses....usually 4 or 5......to use for your connection and devices.
- How I can turn off all DHCP/NAT/DHCP+NAT on the Netgear?
Seems like that would be a question for Netgear support. It may....or may not....be possible to do this.
Even if you do this, there will be no guarantees that this setting will work correctly with AirPort Extreme.
But, before you consider doing this, it would be good idea to check with your Internet Service Provider to make sure that they will support this type of configuration.
I'm sure that you will agree that it would be of little value if you configured the Netgear device to turn off DHCP and NAT and function in Bridge Mode, and then had a connection issue....and your service provider refused to help you.
Perhaps your service provider has a simple modem that they could offer to you. That would work with the AirPort Extreme and you would not have to worry about trying to configure the Netgear to do something that it was not likely designed to do.

Hi, I want to use my Capsule just as a back up via wireless. How do I set this up without connecting it with an ethernet cable to either a router or the iMac??

Hi, I want to use my Capsule just as a back up via wireless. How do I set this up without connecting it with an ethernet cable to either a router or the iMac??

I misunderstood what Time Capsule is and had hoped for a wireless backup device that didn't have to be connected to the router.
The TC is a wireless backup device.. it does not need to be connected to the main router..
The problem is the computer.. not the TC.. the computer has only one wireless card.. if your current internet is by wireless.. then you must choose.. internet or backup.
But my other suggestion will work.. get a wireless USB stick compatible with Mac OS.. there are plenty and cheap.. since you are in the same room as the TC they will work fine.. plug it in and load the driver.. taint hard.
You should do the first backup by ethernet though.. wireless is too slow.. once you have that, you will do fine.
Search ebay for wireless n usb.. Mac compatible..

As you can see.. they are getting smaller and neater.
I have no idea if it works .. haven't tried one.. but I have used USB wireless stick on the Mac to overcome this issue.
You will need to set static IP .. not hard but you need to set specifics if you do buy one post again for the setup.

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 it a BizHub? If so, use the booklet printing from the Koncia driver.
If it's like the one I have, click the Printer button at the bottom of InDesign's print dialog, then choose Layout/Finish from the drop down menu, and booklet from there.
One thing to note: with this method, leave your paper size the same as one page of your document.

Is there a set up tutorial for using Outlook with iCloud

I am using Outlook on my PC (windows 7 and Outlook 2010)
1. Is there a set up tutorial for using Outlook with iCloud?
2. Please clarify, I don't need to set up a XXX@me email account to get iCloud to sync with Outlook, correct?
3. My emails appear to by syncing, but the Outlook Calendar does not sync its Pre-Cloud entries with my Iphone and IPad. Is this what is to e expected?
4. If I put a calendar entry on my PC's Outlook Calendar, it should sync with my Iphone and Ipad correct? Again, what about entries that were made in Outlook before I signed up for iCloud?
I am hoping there is a simple step by step tutorial somewhere, because I am pretty disappointed with Apple about how confusing this is all becoming.

Hello:
Sorry I can't bring you a solution but I am surprised your mail is working. Many of us with outlook 2010 seem to be having trouble sending. It seems apple's Pxx-smpt.mail.me.com server is rejecting the loging. I have tried it on three PC's with Win7 and Outlook 2010. It simply does not work after installing from the iCloud control panel. I have also manually configured the servers, encryption method, etc to no avail.
On the positive side, Calenda and contacts does work. First time around, the claendar duplictaed everything but I manually cleans it out. The iCloud calendar is a seperate calendar in Outlook. It seems to perform a sync with your local calendar one time. From them on, I beleive you need to use the iCloud calendar to have the same appointments show on each device. I renamed the defaut iClouds calendar to "iCloud Calendar". It's definatelly confusing and not seamless. It would be nicer to sync your OL calendar permenantly so you don;t see two or more.
Let me know your settings for iCloud email on Outlook. Try sending an email from the @me.com account.
Thanks,
Kevin

How do I set up my iphone to sync with my outlook account?

How do I set up my iphone to sync with my outlook account?

Hi maryannmc,
You have two options.
1. You can plug the iPhone into iTunes and select the "Info" tab and choose "Sync Mail Accounts" and this will transfer the settings across.
2. In the iPhone you can go to Settings > General > Mail, Contacts and Calendars and choose "Add account"
You will need to know if your account is POP, IMAP or Exchange and this will help determine what settings you need to enter and how to set it up so both your computer and iPhone can receive email.
The iPhone can add most popular accounts with ease such as gmail, yahoo or hotmail.
Hope this helps,

How do i set the iphone to auto sync with the mac book pro

Thanks but this is not what I am looking for. I am looking for the settings - setting that allows our iphone to auto sync with your mac book when you make a puchase on either device.
You aren't going to sync with my MacBook when I make a purchase.
And you are not going to autosync your iPod with the MacBook unless you tell it to sync or plug it in.
You can enable Automatic downloads when you make a purchase.
iTunes settings > Store.
When you make a purchase, it will automatically download that purchase to devices set up the same way.
This is not the same as autosyncing your device to your computer (as you first asked).

once made a selection in photoshop how do you export in Illustrator and use it with a cutting plotter?

Plotters require continuous paths. Convert the selection to a path and clean it up suitably. Copy&paste it to Illustrator and use it as a clipping mask on your artwork or whatever. You may also need to create a duplicate layer/ separate PDF file file. Talk to the people doing the plotting.

I'm hooked up to the ethernet using DHCP with manual address. It's running (green) but my internet (Safari, messenger, email) doesn't work! Help!

I'm running an iMac with Mountain Lion. Not only do we do accounting work on this computer with AccountEdge, but the computer functions as a server to another computer in a different state.
Anyway, I set a static IP address (Using DHCP with manual address) on it (to allow for a VPN to the computer in the different state) and it is connected (green dot) - meaning that the other computer in the different state can connect to us via that ethernet line - but for some reason Safari, Messanger, and Apple Email won't work.
But if I switch a dynamic IP (DHCP auto), I can use the internet (Safari, messanger, email), but the computer in the different state can't connect to this computer.
How can I fix this so that the computer in the different state can connect to this computer and that the internet (Safari, messanger, and email) can work at the same time?
Much thanks!

No but if they are using a VPN Tunnel for the connection that restricts all internet traffic over the tunnel. Which means you can't use that same computer to broswe the internet or connect to other computers or devices on your LAN.
I'd need to see the actual setup, router and the IP addresses you are using.
Networking and remote networking is fairly easy when you are in front of the systems you are working on. Doing it over the internet on a forum is almost impossible. Tha is why I suggested you get local help, like the person that originally set it up.

Leopard : Network : Unable to use DHCP with manual address.

After installing Leopard on my Macmini (PowerPC 1.42Ghz, 1GB RAM, 80GB HDD), I found my IP address obtains different IP address than Panther and Tiger use. Then I go into System Preferences -> Network -> select Ethernet -> select "Using DHCP with manual address" in the "Configure" combo box, and change the IP address from 192.168.0.8 to 192.168.0.100. Once I hit apply, the network connection never comes back. There is no complaint that another computer is using the 192.168.0.100 IP address. This works if I am using Panther or Tiger on the same computer.
Any help is appreciated.

Setting the DHCP to a number you want to use can be very useful in a busy environment. I usually choose to use numbers that are outside of the range of numbers being controlled by my router (Westell).
Port Forwarding for services like ARD, Azureus, or any server application break when the IP number changes for any reason.
Some routers will not allow numbers outside of a restricted range of numbers that can be set up in the router configuration menu's. In this case, I find out if the router is assigning numbers from the high or low end and make sure I assign numbers at the opposite end of the range.
My Westell router does allow me to use numbers other than the range of 50 numbers it has been told to use for DHCP, but I have also encountered problems when trying this on a wireless connection.
