How do I set up my router for use with only my laptop?

I want to use my WRT300N v1 broadband router wirelessly with only my laptop, but the set-up instructions I've seen involve wiring the router to a desktop. Can anyone provide me with the instructions I need?
Thanks.

It is not an mandotary step to connect the Desktop to the Router... it just indicates that first you need ant computer connected to the router using cable & working online ....
If you want to go online with Laptop .... either you can connect the Laptop to the Router using Cable or you can wirelessly go online ,.....
Connect the Laptop to the router using Ethernet Cable ,,,,, at LAN port 1-4 .... Check the light status ... access setup page ...
Click on the Wireless tab on the Setup page- Here Wireless Network mode
should be mixed- Provide any non linksys network name ....
Name (SSID) box- Set wireless channel to 11- And wireless SSID
broadcast should be Enabled and then click on "Save Settings" >>Now
Click on the Sub tab under wireless > "Wireless Security" Change the
Wireless security mode to "WEP/WPA"...have a note of the key ... click save settings ...
On the Laptop try connecting to the Wireless network ...
See if it connects ....

How do I set up Aperture 3 for use with wide gamut monitor?

I use a NEC 2690wuxi attached to a macbook pro for my main screen when i do retouching on photos. Right now the images come up a bit neon on the NEC and look fine on the laptop screen. Is there a way to adjust this?...
I have no problem with this when working in Photoshop CS3 or Lightroom 2.6.
thanks...

I have the same problem using my macbook Pro and a EIZO CG241W monitor.
I calibrate both the macbook screen and the EIZO and set the colorsync profile to make the EIZO the default profile. If I have aperture on the macbook screen all appears ok including the picture I open in Photoshop to compare. If I have the preview on the external monitor the colors are overly saturated in Aperture and no where close to the picture opened in photoshop. Strangely enough the thumbnail previews seem to show the proper color.It is the large preview as well as the mirrored screen (option+M) that show the wrong colors. I also notice that if I click on an image opened in Photoshop CS4 and drag it to the external monitor that as long as I hold it clicked the colors match those in the preview but as soon as I let go the colors change back to what I think is the proper colors. This means that Aperture is still using the macbook monitor profile even though the EIZO monitor has been set as default in the colorsync program. I have had the same issue with aperture2.
Photoshop, bridge,lightroom 2 and Phaseone Capture 1 Pro versions 3 through 5 all handle the profiles correctly. I have been doing pre press for european catalogues for years this way. I also reverted to OS X 10.5.8 after having installed snow leopard as snow leopard also had colorsync problems while using dual monitors on a Macbook Pro. I don't think anyone here in the forums will have a solution to this problem ,I can only hope enough people have complained to apple directly so that the software engineers will be put to work to fix this problem. Aperture 3 is absolutely impossible for me to use like this and I am very disappointed to have spent money on professional software that obviously does not work correctly on a dual monitor set up. And no.. I can not do proper color correction on my MAcbook Pro Screen!!
Should anyone have an idea how to solve the problem outside of the obvious answers I am all ears,
as of now I will copy this and send it to apple support!

My Deskjet 3050 J610 will not connect to my Virgin WiFi router for use with Apple Mac laptop.

I live in the UK and have Broadband access via a Virgin connection and WiFi router. My Apple MacBook laptop connects to the WiFi with no difficulties. However I have an HP Deskjet 3050 J610 printer which will not connect to the router. When I try to connect, the blue light just keeps on flashing but a connection is not found. Consequently my MacBook cannot "see" the printer on the network. Any suggestions? Thanks!

See if this helps.
Printer does not maintain wireless connection.

Best wireless router for use with Powerbook 15"

Not everyone uses the Apple Airport, and some who do have mixed feelings about the various models.
What is the best wireless router, from any manufacturer, for use with an AlBook? What has the least problems, most reliable, strongest signal, fewest drops, best range, etc in your experience.

Joeski,
I'll have to get back to you on what card my wifes laptop is using. I think it's a 802.11a/g, but I will confirm. My Powerbook 1.67 has the built in wireless card and to be honest, I have never looked to see what it uses.
We have our D-Link router set up for WPA2.
Neither her or I have had any issues when we have had to connect anywhere to any other wireless network and when I come home, I can connect back to my router automatically since my network is set up on my Powerbook as my 1st network of choice in connecting.
As far as replacing the antenna, I really dont know. It's has 3 antennas on it and I get a great signal, so I never thought about replacing it.
Hope this information is helpful to you!

How do i configure the usb port on a draytek vigor 2820n router for use with my imac

i have an imac connected to the internet through a draytek vigor 2820n router. this router has a USB port with a HP Deskjet 5560 printer attached (for use as a network printer for other machines on the network). How do I configure this printer on the iMAC?

I checked on the HP web site. Your aswer is on the HP website under your printer type. Update your drivers and follow the instructions given by HP and the printer will work as you have it connected.
Good Luck

How Do I create a Modular Function for use with Event Listeners

OK I'm very new to AS3 and I'm curious as to how to get
modular functions to work in AS3.
for instance if I have this code:
function snowfall(snowflake:MovieClip, movement:Number):void
snowflake.y = movement;
snowfall(snowflake1_mc, 10);
snowfall(snowflake2_mc, 20);
snowfall(snowflake3_mc, 30);
Now on the stage I place 3 instances of a snowflake movie
clip. Each time I call the "snowfall" function I refer to a new
instance of the snowflake movie clip and a different amount of
movement along the y axis.
This is great but what if I want to use a button to control
these snowflake movie clips and I want to maintain that modular
nature? I don't really get how to do this. I created a button with
an instance name of "myButton" and I've tried this code but it is
throwing an error I don't really understand:
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
snowfall(snowflake3_mc, 30));
Can I not pass information to a function using an
EventListener?

Hi --
What you want to do on your button is this..
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,snowfall)
Then in the function you can check which button called the
function using
properties of the event..
function snowfall(event:MouseEvent) {
trace(event)
I am not sure off the top of my head of the data available in
the "event"
but the trace will show you all the variables you can access.
As far as the amount of movement -- how is this information
set? You can
keep this in a global variable and then read it from inside
the event
handler rather than needing to pass it to the event.

How do I set miminum # of connections for pool with Oracle and Tomcat?

Hi,
I can't seem to find any attribute to initialize the number of connections for my connection pool. Here is my current context.xml file under my /App1 directory:
<Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
<Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
user="app1" password="app1" />
</Context>
I've been googling and reading forums, but haven't found a way to establish the minimum number of connections. I've tried all sorts of parameters like InitialLimit, MinLimit, MinActive, etc, with no success.
Here is some sample code that I am testing:
package web;
import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
import javax.naming.*;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
import java.util.Properties;
public class ConnectionPool {
String message = "Not Connected";
public void init() {
OracleConnection conn = null;
ResultSet rst = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
message = "Here.";
     String user = ds.getUser();
if (envContext == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
if (ds == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
if (ds != null) {
message = "Trying to connect...";
conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xxx");
if (conn != null) {
message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
          conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
stmt = conn.createStatement();
rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT username, server from v$session where username is not null");
while (rst.next()) {
message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; Server: " + rst.getString(2);
rst.close();
rst = null;
stmt.close();
stmt = null;
conn.close(); // Return to connection pool
conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
// and the connection is returned to the pool
if (rst != null) {
try {
rst.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
rst = null;
if (stmt != null) {
try {
stmt.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
stmt = null;
if (conn != null) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
conn = null;
public String getMessage() {
return message;
I'm using a utility to repeatedly call a JSP page that uses this class and displays the message variable. This utility allows me to specify the number of concurrent web requests and an overall number of requests to try. While that is running, I look at V$SESSION in Oracle and occassionaly, I will see a brief entry for app1 or adavey depending on the timing of my query and how far along the code has processed in this example. So it seems that I am only using one connection at a time and not a true connection pool.
Is it possible that I need to use the oci driver instead of the thin driver? I've looked at the javadoc for oci and the OCIConnectionPool has a setPoolConfig method to set initial, min and max connections. However, it appears that this can only be set via Java code and not as a parameter in my context.xml resource file. If I have to set it each time I get a database connection, it seems like it sort of defeats the purpose of having Tomcat maintain the connection pool for me and that I need to implement my own connection pool. I'm a newbie to this technology so I really don't want to go this route.
Any advice on setting up a proper connection pool that works with Tomcat and Oracle proxy sessions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alan

Well I did some more experiments and I am able to at least create a connection pool within my example code:
package web;
import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
import javax.naming.*;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
import java.util.Properties;
public class ConnectionPool {
String message = "Not Connected";
public void init() {
OracleConnection conn = null;
ResultSet rst = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
message = "Here.";
     String user = ds.getUser();
if (envContext == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
if (ds == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
if (ds != null) {
message = "Trying to connect...";
boolean cache_enabled = ds.getConnectionCachingEnabled();
if (!cache_enabled){
ds.setConnectionCachingEnabled(true);
Properties cacheProps = new Properties();
cacheProps.put("InitialLimit","5");
     cacheProps.put("MinLimit","5");
cacheProps.put("MaxLimit","10");
ds.setConnectionCacheProperties(cacheProps);
          conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xyz");
if (conn != null) {
message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
          conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
stmt = conn.createStatement();
//rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT 'Success obtaining connection' FROM DUAL");
rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT user, SYS_CONTEXT ('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER') from dual");
while (rst.next()) {
message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; sys_context: " + rst.getString(2);
message += "; Was cache enabled?: " + cache_enabled;
rst.close();
rst = null;
stmt.close();
stmt = null;
conn.close(OracleConnection.PROXY_SESSION); // Return to connection pool
conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
// and the connection is returned to the pool
if (rst != null) {
try {
rst.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
rst = null;
if (stmt != null) {
try {
stmt.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
stmt = null;
if (conn != null) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
conn = null;
public String getMessage() {
return message;
In my context.xml file, I tried to specify the same Connection Cache Properties as attributes, but no luck:
<Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
<Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
user="app1" password="app1"
ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" MinLimit="5" MaxLimit="20"/>
</Context>
These attributes seemed to have no effect:
ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" ; also tried "true"
MinLimit="5"
MaxLimit="20"
So basically if I could find some way to get these attributes set within the context.xml file instead of my code, I would be a happy developer :-)
Oh well, it's almost Miller time here on the east coast. Maybe a few beers will help me find the solution I'm looking for.

Cannot configure wrt54gs v6 router for use with filezilla FTP client

I am new to working with FTP and very rusty on networking in general. I just downloaded filezilla to create a FTP client on my desktop. When I run their wizard, it says the connection is tainted by my router. All the forums for filezilla say I need to configure my router to allow traffic on either port 21 (ftp) or a range of ports ( they suggest 50000 to 50100).
Please let me know what I need to do to make this work
thanks in advance
ldygunner

To answer your other questions, the tutorials have it all wrong. What they really need to explain, but fail to do so, is that the only situation where a FTP client would need to use active mode (the PORT command) is where the FTP server can't accept inbound connections on arbitrary port numbers. But that's a pathological case anyway: the FTP server can always accept connections on some well defined set of port numbers, to keep its own local firewall or NAT router happy. Consequently, there is really no need at all for a FTP client system to open up any ports to support active mode, rather than always operate in passive mode (as browsers do.)
The fact of the matter is that if passive mode works in a browser for you, it will work for Filezilla also.
And the configuration tests it runs are brain damaged. Even though the wizard recommends passive mode, it never tests for it. And it doesn't really test active mode either. What it really tests is whether anything between the client and the server is "transparently" translating IP addresses and port numbers. Such a test is broken, because the mere fact of port numbers being rewritten in TCP packets is irrelevant to whether PORT (active mode) will succeed or fail.
For completeness, in case someone decides to get pedantic, there is a case where a FTP client system would need the active mode PORT command to work, but that case is now of historical interest only. It's a scenario that FTP servers no longer support, for security reasons. (What is it? When the FTP client is operating as a controller to remotely transfer files between two servers: it tells one server to use passive mode, and sends the address/port it gets to the other server in active mode, which in theory would make the second server open a connection to the first. This, in fact, is why two modes, active and passive, were originally defined in the FTP standard!) And it still wouldn't need open ports on the client system.

How to make a fill in template for use with ipad

If I have a custom made excel spreadsheet, that I use for fill in information, what app do i need to open, fill in and save the template for printing and sharing

As an update for the actual table, the scenario is a bit different from this example: there is a form filled in with information. Some is correct, some incorrect. I am trying to simulate a supervisor reviewing the form and finding and fixing the incorrect information. And yes, it has to be accessible.
I used two methods. First, I split up the table into individual quiz questions using T/F and Fill-In-The-Blank. The T/F asks the learner if all of the information for the day is correct. Then they use Fill-In-The-Blank to correct wrong answers. It worked, kinda, but the graded quizzes in Cp6 do not indicate specifically what was right and wrong (just the correct or incorrect feedback text boxes appear), so it is not as useful to the learner.
I am now working another tactic: The table is imported as an image. I plan to hand-type the contents into the Accessibility tab. Since the info is only meant to be read horizontally (by day), I am hoping that that works. Each data cell is overlayed with a transparent smartshape, named, and has its own variable. On clicking, the variable increments by 1. That is how the learner can indicate which cells contain wrong information.
There are advanced actions for each cell to indicate whether they clicked correctly or not. Now my issue is that I have one "Submit" button and want to launch 10 advanced actions at one time. Is there any way to trigger that?

How do I convert Word 2004 files for use with Mavericks?

I have recently upgraded to Mavericks and now find that my old Word files (2004) can't be opened. (I can still open my Word 2008 files.) I have been a maths teacher for decades and have many old files which are still very useful but they contain more than just text; they contain diagrams, MathType expressions etc. etc. I need to be able to convert these files to files that can be opened with Mavericks. Can anyone tell me how I can do this?

Office 2008 should function in Mavericks and it willl open Office 2004 files:

Hence, you do not need to partition and install Snow Leopard into a new partition. I gave you my previous advice before you indicated you are now using Office 2008.

How do I import an AVI file for use with FInal Cut Express

How do I import or use an AVI file with Final Cut Express?
Thank you. Do I need to convert my AVI file and what is the
easiest way to do that? Thank you.

You should convert the media to QuickTime. Without knowing any specifics most likely the simplest way is to use MPEG Streamclip.

How can I establish an enum typedef for use with state machines and action engines?

Hey all--
I have an action engine with several instances. Any time that I add a method to the engine, I have to modify all of the calling code to update the constant that determines the method being called. There must be a smarter way to address this problem but my LV experience is insufficient to identify it. Can any of you wiz-bangs tell me if it is possible to make a type def (I can do this) and use it with each instance of the action engine call so that changing any instance also updates the typedef?
Thanks.

Take your enumerator. If it is not a control (ie constant), change it to a control.
Under File Menu, select New > Custom Control.
Move (or copy) your Enum Control to the Custom Control. Change the Control to Strict Type Def (the selection to the right of the wrench). Save it.
(EDIT: ** OOps, the picture shows the wrong one.. sorry**)
Copy that new Strict Type Def control to your code.
See images below.
OR.. If you're using LV8.x, and using a project, I would recomment that you do it from within your project explorer. Simply insert a new "Control". The rest of the steps are similar, except that you can insert it from your project.

How tune flash player 9 for use with proxy

I use me browser with proxy. But flash player, when i show
yourtube etc, use direct connection and not use proxy server. How
tune flash player (last fersion, 9) for use with proxy. I want what
all traffic go over proxy

Will alienate? They've already alienated users a long time
ago. That isn't the point, though, because it doesn't matter if
users are alienated, it only matters if the users need flash.
The only thing that could make flash player better is open
source. I don't see why they don't do it. They make money on the
authoring tool, not the player. All of my Linux machines are ppc
and x86_64, no flash there. I also don't have flash on my PDA, a
Palm T|X. If the player was open sourced, people would stop
complaining about how much flash sucks -- because, right now, there
are very serious, legitimate, complaints against it.
Anyway, for now I'm hoping that SVG matures quickly.
Although, I"m sure that once Adobe sees that train coming, they
will extend Flash (dev.) to export SVG movies containing embedded
binary data that can only play with their binary plugin.
