How do you use 3 devices on one Router?

    Hello< I'm new to the forum and new to networking. My question may seem very basic and it may not, I'm not sure. I will say that I have tried to learn things about routers and networking over the past few days with not much success.  Of the 3 million plus acronyms used for networking and networking devices, I know maybe two of them, so trying to read about this stuff is like trying to read pig latin.
    My set-up is one Lynksys cable modem and a WRT54G wireless router using Comcast cable internet. I have one PC wired to the router, one Xbox360 wired to the router, and one PSP (Playstation Portable) wirelessly connected to the router using a WPA personal. I currently have my router set to "Automatic Configuration - DHCP."
    The PC is always connected to the internet and always works, although, once and a while I do get the little yellow shield in my toolbar that says there is an IP conflict. After setting up or resetting the router I can then log on with both my PC and the Xbox at the same time with no trouble. While both the Xbox and PC are looged in,the PSP will not log in,says "could not connect." As soon as I log off the Xbox, the PSP will then be able to connect without doing anything else. If I then log off the PSP I have to reset the router before the Xbox can log in again. If I do not reset the router at this point, and run the Xbox network test utility it will say the IP address has failed.
   Is there a way that I can log in with all 3 devices at once? If not, is there a way that I can at least not have to reset the router everytime I switch from the PSP to the Xbox?
Thanks to anyone who replies to this post. I am getting a little frustrated and I can't seem to gain any understanding of these devices or how they work.

Thanks a lot for that information Sean. Those guides made it extremely easy to set up all my devices to a static IP. I now have all 3 devices logged at the same time and no longer need to reset my router. Nice!
There is one problem though. Now, when I use the test utility on the Xbox, everything is confirmed, but when it gets to NAT it says "moderate." It used to say "open."
IP Adress - Confirmed
DNS         - Confirmed
MTU         - Confirmed
ICMP        - Confirmed
Xbox Live - Connected
NAT          - Moderate (should say "open")
This is what it says when I select "more info" under NAT;
"This test indicates the type of NAT that your router or gateway is using. Devices that perform strict or moderate NAT can restrict or limit the ability of gamers to find each other, participate in sessions, or hear each other on Xbox Live. If your router or gateway is using a strict or moderate NAT, replace it with a Xbox Live compatible device. For a listing of compatible devises visit www.xbox.com."
I have since tried joining a live game session and everything seemed to work fine, although I havn't yet had a chance to confirm if the Live voice chat is working yet.
I have checked the Xbox website and found that my modem is certified Xbox Live compatible. It lists WRT54G (V1, V2, and V3) supporting firmware version 3.01.3 and 3.03.6. It also states that firmaware v2.02.7 will not allow you to log onto Xbox Live, so I know I don't want that version. In my router's set-up menu it says Firmware v1.00.9. Should I update my firmware? Am I missing something else?
Again, thanks for your help and hopefully I can figure out this "moderate" thing.
Hi
Well first of all , No worries budd.
and secondly ,
am happy about the fact u did the settings correctly ,thats why u able to get online with All three devices . appreciate it .
Thirdly ,
firmware could be an issue . as u stated u firmware version on router showin as v1.00.9 . i found out it is WRT54G v5.
upgrade the router to the latest firmware version - v1.02.5 !
How to upgrade the router in correct mannar , click this magic link .
Fourth , if stll problem persist !
enable the port forwards in the correct mannar for the static ip u provided to xbox, follow this magic link 2 for more info.
hope for gudd..

How to you use more than one input with an audio interface

Looking at the PreSonus FireStudio Mobile. Nice little box. It says that it has 10 inputs, 2 are the usual XLR/-1/4" type and there are 2 gain control and 2 meters. But there are 6 other inputs on the back. How would one use those? With only 2 gain pots on front? Also how do you configure LE to take those all in? I generally record on track (input) at a time. But what if I want to record more? How do I do that?
Thanks

Yes. If you are in the Photos app in thumbnail view (i.e. the photos are not full screen), then if you tap the icon top right of the box with the arrow coming out of it, you should be able to select up to 5 photos and be able to then tap the Email button top left to attach them to an email

How do you use more then one computer for your Ipod??

One of my computers died and I want to still use iTunes to get more music but I don’t want to erase what I have on my iPod now. I need to use a different computer with out erasing all the music I have now?? HELP

If your iPod is set to update automatically you need to take care connecting to a different iTunes. You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7.3 or later installed hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys together. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes - Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual. If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
Syncing Music to iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

How can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

how can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

No you do not need separate Apple ID's in order to use 3 devices with one Apple ID. I use 4 devices to Message and FaceTime and all use the same Apple ID. You do need to add additional email addresses for the other devices.
Look at this very informative video for the instructions.

How do you use one managed session bean from another?

Hello -
I am a complete newbie to JSF coming from Struts 1. My question is how do you use one managed bean from the method of another one? I think this would be a common senario. For example I put a bean in session scope when a user logs in and in a different method within a different bean I want to get some of this user's information. What is the correct way to retireve one bean from a method in another with session scope?
Also what would the code look like to retieve another bean from the method of a managed bean where the bean you want to retrieve has application scope?
Thank you in advance.

Sinplicity wrote:
Could you be a bit more specific? If a bean is configured in the faces config file then all of it's properties are managed, correct?Not necessarily.
What would the code look like to retireve the bean?You don't retrieve it, it has been injected.
Can I retrieve the whole bean or just a property of the bean. I would be really interested in seeing how this is done in code? And would really love a bit more information on what it means to be a managed property?Time to consult a JSF tutorial.

Can you use more than one email address on one account as to enable two or three devices to use imsg????

Can you use more than one email address on one account as to enable two or three devices to use imsg as when i add new email address's in settings it just says veriyfying and nothing happens????

If I read your question right, yes.
My pad has two e mail addresses, and my phone has a phone number as well as a e mail address. For each device you can add additional 'receive at' addresses in settings.
Note, when you add a new address, apple will send an e mail to that new address that you need to respond to, to show that it is a valid address. So look in the inbox of that e mail account for the verification e mail. Note further, some spam filters think that the verification e mail might be spam, so if it does not show up in your in box, look in any spam file you might have.
in my case, the verification e mail came within a few minutes of declaring the new address.
The multiple address are useful if you have more than one device under your apple id, and want to be able to send stuff to that particular device.

How do you use the bluetooth VIs with a Microsoft Bluetooth Driver?

How do you use the LabVIEW Bluetooth VIs with the Microsoft Bluetooth driver? I have been trying with no such luck.
   I want to use 2 computers to talk to each other using the bluetooth VIs.  Eventually, I think we would like a PDA/phone to talk to a custom built electronics board with Bluetooth. But for now, I would just like 2 computers to talk and then eventually talk to our own device.
One is a desktop w/ the Belkin F8T012 USB adapter. It installs fine with the Belkin driver (but I know I need to use the Microsoft Driver in order to use the LabVIEW VIs, but I have tried to get Windows to install its own but it says it is a BCM92045DG-Flash. It says it cannot install it because it cannot find the necessary hardware. I thought this USB adapter was on the approved Bluetooth devices list? What else should I try? Another Bluetooth USB adapter?
The other computer is a Dell Latitude 820. It has a built in Bluetooth module which I believe is the Dell 350 Bluetooth Module. On this machine I have been able to setup a COM port with a bluetooth device (blood glucose meter). It came with a serial port interface which we modifed to go through a bluetooth interface. It comes up as COM40. We have been able to communicate to it using their program originally designed to talk through a serial port. But we would like to use the Bluetooth VIs in LabVIEW. I can't even use the Discover VI.  Perhaps it is not using the Microsoft Driver as well. Do I just uninstall the driver and then try to have Windows install its own driver? Do you have any other recommendations?
Thanks,
Javi

Hi Javi,
This sounds like an issue with Windows and your specific Bluetooth devices. As you mentioned, the LV Bluetooth VI's do require that the devices use the Windows drivers. Take a look at this link for specific requirements for using Bluetooth with LabVIEW. Also, you can take a look at our Developer Zone tutorial on designing Bluetooth applications a found here. Regarding your device drivers, sometimes it is as easy as uninstalling the driver and then letting Windows discover the device and fine its own driver. You could check out the Microsoft Knowledgebase for more information. Thanks and have a great day!

How do you use Airport extreme at hotels etc, when traveling? I can plug my computer into the Airport with my ethernet but how does Airport pickup signal?

How do you use Airport extreme at hotels etc, when traveling? I can plug my computer into the Airport with my ethernet but how does Airport pickup signal? What equipment & devices do I need to travel with to make this possible?

You may mean the AirPort Express.....not AirPort Extreme.....as the Express is a popular travel router.
The whole idea behind using this device is that the hotel must provide an Ethernet jack in the hotel room. Then you connect the AirPort Express to the Ethernet jack with an Ethernet cable and configure it to provide your own wireless network in the room. You still have to agree to terms, pay the fees, etc.
The problem with this approach is that it is getting very difficult to find hotels in North America that prrovide an Ethernet jack....most have moved to wireless networks and the others are not far behind.
So, if the hotel is already providing a wireless signal, the AirPort Express is of no use in that situation.
If you normally stay at the same hotels, and know that they provide Ethernet ports, an AirPort Express might make sense in terms of convenience.

How do you use your iPod Touch?

I'm thinking of buying an ipod touch 5th gen, but I have to convince myself that it would help me significantly before I drop $300 on a device. My question: how do you use your iPod Touch, aka, what things have helped you significantly, excluding games? I've heard a ton about how awesome the new version is, and everything about its camera and retina display, but I want to know that I would actually use one first....
Thanks.

Surf the web from bed and coffee shops/bookstores. When in a store that has WiFi I may research a product that looks interesting to buy.
It is a camera that is always with you (assuming you always take it with you), so you can capture that picture that happens once in a life time. Also the camera is great when shopping for "Big Ticket" items as you can take pictures to remind you of things you were looking at so you can do additional research at home before making your final decision.
Check my mail from bed and coffee shops/bookstores, etc... when WiFi is available.
Use it as an alarm clock, meeting reminder, todo reminder.
Take notes (not school notes, just ideas, stuff I maybe want to buy, useful information I may pick up in a bookstore, books I may want to buy, etc...)
Contains my contacts for friends, family, and businesses (plumber, dentist, doctor, etc...)
Plays music, or in my case, I listen to podcasts
Reading ebooks. I use it a lot to read ebooks. It is always with me, so I can read a book anywhere, such as waiting in a doctor/dentist office, at the motor vehicle registry. And reading in bed is great as when you fall asleep, it remembers what page you were on vs that book that drops onto your face and wakes you back up while at the same time loosing your page
The Maps app is great for finding where something is located, and plotting how to get there (not as good as having an iPhone with GPS, but still useful). Also the satellite images make it easier to visualize where you are going.
When connected to WiFi it can be used for Facetime when calling a friend or family member that also has an iOS device. Seeing a loved one when they are not near can be emotionally satisfying. You can also make skype calls.
I use 1Password to store all my passwords. It keeps them secure, I always have them with me, and I do not need to use the same password over and over again, or make them too simple to remember. 1Password has a built-in browser so you it can substitute the correct password for the web site you are visting without actually needing to look it up.
1Password related but not passwords. Because 1Password encrypts all the data it holds, I can also store sensitive information (such as medical conditions, or other information I do not want made public should my device be lost or stolen), yet always have that information with me should I need it.
I can get the weather. This week, I've been using an app to get high/low Tide infromation, plus sunrise information. But getting weather info when you wake up so you can plan your day and if you need to shovel the driveway before going to work. I find it easier to get the weather from my iOS device than it is to use my laptop or turn on the Weather Channel.
Calclator. 2+2 = 4, but there are times you do need to get something right, and calculators are useful. They have all kinds available, including hexidecimal calculators for programmers.
RSS newsfeed reader (I follow about 20+ feeds, including these discussions groups via RSS feeds).
Travel services. Most airports have WiFi, and you can get updated travel info for your flights via some speciallized travel apps.
If you are into tracking your car mileage, gas usage, maintenance costs, etc..., there are apps for that.
While you can watch video on your iOS device (downloaded movies, YouTube), you can also stream movies from services such as Netflix. This can be useful when traveling, or if you are stuck in bed with a cold, or if you have lost control of the "Remote" and do not want to watch "Dancing with the Stars"
TV related, there are apps that will give you the TV schedule for your area, so you can browse the shows on this evening.
List. You can keep lists, including grocery shopping lists, items to pack for a trip lists, things to do for that bathroom remodel, things you need to get before school starts, Christmas lists, etc.... NOTE: Ideas for Christmas/Birthday/Anniversary gifts may come anytime during the year, but if you do not write them down, you may be scratching your head when the event arrives. Putting them in a list can help you later on.
You can get a Level app. You may laugh, but I have actually used my iOS device to check if something was level. It was there, and a carpenters level was not. Not perfect, but it did what I needed at the time.
Finding a good resturante (Yelp, Urbanspoon, etc...). The iOS device can be very helpful in finding a good nearby place to eat when away from home, or even discovering a new play where you live to get out of that eat at the same place rut.
That is some of the things I use my iOS device for.

How do you use forward and back button on mouse and use "zoom" in web browser.

Ok so apparently this forum is ruled with an iron fist or something my very honest and truthful problems with these issues seem to have been instantly deleted in my last discussion?
I'll try this once more.
1) How do you use the forward and back button on a mouse without having to buy a product like Steer Mouse? There must be a way to do this without having to buy a program given it's such a useful feature that 99% of users need. I don't want to spend hours researching something that should already work. Any advice?
2) How do you zoom in for web browsers like Chrome without it globally zooming in everything on the monitor (even background applications). I don't want to zoom in background applications. I want to be able to zoom in the web browser and still maintain all the features like the side bar, not just a little magnifying glass type thing.
I'm currently zooming in with the CTRL-Middle Mouse button, but I can't find a way to use this feature so it's useful to browse the web it seems to not scale the browser correctly but rather is a global zoom. Any solution for this?

Thanks so much!
Like I said I am new to Apple products so it's still unclear to me which programs I do or don't need as I'm setting up and configuring all my software and devices.
The Logitech Control Center appears to work perfectly for what I was trying to do!
I accidently clicked "This helped me" instead of "This Solved My Question", sorry about that this was a solve!

I have a 120gb Classic that has no space left on it. i am going to buy a larger gb capacity ipod as soon as i get clearer instruction on how to get the old ipod content to the new ipod. How do you get content from one ipod to the other?

how do you get content from one ipod to the new one? my content is on an external hard drive not on my pc and i have run out of space on my 120gb classic. can you get old ipod content to new? my itunes has only got short cuts, the real content is on an external drive? can this be done?? please help

If the content is on an external drive, but your library knows where to find it, then it should all work. Connect your device, make some selections for what to put on it, and sync. If, on the other hand, your current iPod is the only place holding some of your media then see this user tip: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???

How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???
Where are the instructions on how the information in the Multiple Item Information dialog box equates to ...
1. The way iTunes sorts tracks and albums
2. The reason to select a leading check box
3. Why there are Option selections (Yes /No) and leading check boxes.
4. Why some changes remain in the track info, but do not "take effect" in iTunes (Part of a compilation is an example)
Looked in Help, Support, went to the local Genius bar for an hour, even arrainged a call from apple support ...
Thanks

As Christopher says, it's a compilation. Different tracks are by different artists.
Setting the *Album Artist* field to *Various Artists* and setting *Part of a compilation* to Yes should be all that is required. Depending on your *Group compilations when browsing* setting ( I recommend On ) either should suffice but I suggest doing both.
Based on your commentary, I selected all the "O Brother" tracks, and checked the boxes for everything line that was blank in the Info and the Sort panes. Only exceptions were the album name and the disc number 1 of 1 and the artwork. I blanked and checked anything else.
That's not what I meant. When you select multiple tracks, only those values which +are already common+ to all tracks are displayed. Typically these will include Artist, though not with compilation albums, Album Artist, Album, No. of Tracks, Genre plus various sort fields. A blank value may indicate that different tracks have different values or it may be that the value is blank for all tracks. For the drop down values on the Options tab the value shown may not reflect the information in every tag. If values you expect to be common, such as Album Artist or the Album title are not displayed you can simply type these in and click OK. This will often be enough to group the album.
If you place a checkmark against the blank boxes and apply changes then you will clear those fields so you should only do this if that is the effect you want. Putting a checkmark next to an empty (representing different values) *Track No.* box, for example, will just clear the all the track numbers which is very rarely useful.
Adding then removing extra text is for a specific problem where despite all common values being identical across the tracks of the album iTunes seems to "remember" that it should see two albums. A typical example would be when an album originally listed as *Album CD1* & *Album CD2* is given disc numbers X of Y and then has the Album name changed to Album. I've seen iTunes merge all but one track into the new album, but insist on listing one remaining track separately, despite both albums having the same title. In this case I've found overtyping the album title again has no effect whereas changing it to AlbumX and then back to Album does what I was trying to achieve in the first place.
Don't forget that even properly organsied albums may still break up if you don't chose an album-friendly view. Sorting on the track name or track number columns can be useful in some circumstances but in general I revert to Album by Artist when browsing through my library.

How do you use ReadyHosting's myLittleTools?

A client I do some work for occasionally, has normally wanted me to add links to various partner websites. These have all been pretty small over the years I’ve done this work for him, like make 5 at most. Well now he’s hit me
with about 2 dozen partners that he wants a link to. When it gets to this point I think of databases.
I created a MS SQL Server database on Ready Hosting’s server, associated with my client’s account. (Got his permission before doing so.) Then I created a user for that, so that I could get into it. Ready Hosting uses something
called “myLIttleTools” for managing and administering one’s SQL Server databases on their servers. So I tried going into it, entering the credentials that I created. But it refuses to allow me to log in. I get the following error message:
“Error -2147217843
Login failed for user ‘MyID'.
Provider=sqloledb;Data Source=ReadyHostingServer;Initial Catalog=ClientDB;User Id=MyID;Password=MyPassword;Connect Timeout=120;”
(Clearly I’ve changed the credentials here; they’re not what I’ve created.)
Two days ago I opened a help ticket with them. Still haven’t heard from them.
So I’m asking here, does anyone have any experience with SQL Server database management on ReadyHosting? How am I supposed to log in when it refuses to accept the credentials for the user I created on it? They want you to use
this “myLittleTools” thing, but WOW how do you use that when you’re prevented from even getting into the door?
Rod

Readyhosting is still around? They were a really good host back at the turn of the century then were bought by a company that proceeded to hire incompetents and became totally unreliable. I'd have thought they folded a decade ago.
As others said, this is an issue to be resolved through Readyhosting's support personnel. EW is not really deigned for managing database servers. If their connection permits it you can use the MS SQL tools to manage remotely (doubt they allow it though)
and most people use MS Web Developer Express for their database work on small websites not EW.
