Dispatch texts have sequential address - how to set unique ringtone?

Good evening all,
I'm a volunteer firefighter and our department utilizes a text-based dispatch system as one of the ways of notifying us. The texts have a sequential number as part of the FROM address... i.e. [email protected] One message may end with ###138 and the next may be ###165. Obviously, this makes it difficult to set a contact and assign a unique ringtone as the address constantly changes.
The question I have... how can I set a unique ringtone to a constantly changing address?????
Thanks!
Pete

Yes. It's come up a few times. The iPhone uses the caller ID string to associate an incoming call or message with a custom ring/text tone. Unfortunalely, it can not base that on a partial number match. It must match the entire number.
The only real solution would be to assign a custom tone to all of your contacts and a separate tone as the default. That causes its own issue as anything coming from anyone other than your contacts will use the default.

Any suggestions on how to set all ringtones at once?

I want to know when a call comes in if it is from one of my contacts (and therefore someone that I know), or if it is not (and therefore probably a sales call). I only have 5 contact that currently have unique ringtones and would halve no problem resetting those after I did a full change. Again, just changing the default does not accomplish this distinction, all incomming calls ring with the default ringtone, unless the contact is has a different ringtone.

that is correct. That is the action that you are describing. The default ringtone is just that, default. Unless you set a unique tone for other contacts. The only way to set a unique ringtone for someone is to manually set it, and there is no way to set a default for contacts and then a default for unknown callers.

how i can set song as ringtone for my iphone 5s?

You can't. You need to purchase a ringtone or create your own ringtone segment from a song that does not include DRM protection with an app on your iPhone or on your computer followed by transferring the custom ringtone to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process.

How to set up TimeCapsule (4th) to create own private (wired) network behind Airport Express (5th) that is set up to join existing wifi-network of fritz adsl modem/router?

I work in an office building with free Wifi to connect to the Internet. I want to be able to use this internetconnection, but at the same time I want to shield of my own wired network.
I've made the following configuration:
- fritz adsl modem / router
- Airport Extreme (5th gen) set up to join existing wireless network (green light, works)
- Lan-cable from lan-port AE to wan-port TC (4th gen)
- Lan-cable from TC to Mac
- Lan-cable from TC to Printer
When I set my TC (network-settings) in bridge-mode everything works fine, but my Mac and Printer get an IP-address from the fritz modem / router and are visible to others.
I tried to set TC in NAT/DHCP-mode, but then I get the error message that I should set a static IP-adress for TC. When I set TC in DHCP-mode, it looses connection to the AE. I'm not sure what to do now. Does anyone know how to set up my TC and create my own private network and still be able to get on the internet?

Is there a better alternative? I'd rather not want to reset my TC every day.
You are using free internet.. so there is a price to pay.. that is convenience and non-ideal network setup.
The better alternative is to pay for your own connection. Then you are completely free of the possibility of others in the bullding seeing your connection. (as long as you secure the wireless).
But I think you are probably over worrying about public wifi.. if it is setup right.. ask the building admins.. it should be setup so each user cannot see another users connection. This is typical for most wifi setup and simply means you can see internet connection but nobody else on the connection. ie other wireless users.
Having a router with NAT makes it then more secure again and allows clients on your own network to interact with each other. But you can setup wireless to the free wifi for every client.. (depending on how many IP you are allowed).. and run a secondary network without internet access. This is easy for desktop etc where you have a wireless and a wired connection but less convenient for mobile devices.. unless you use a cloud connection and each client can link and share via that.
Have I made the explanation worse??
Think of it this way.. if you had 3 laptops.. all 3 could connect to the internet from the building wifi.. but they cannot talk to each other or share resources in local office. You can put resources out in the cloud, that can be shared.. but that adds traffic and most free services are not fast.
Now you can also plug all three into Time Capsule by ethernet.. and share local resources. Files, printers backup etc. This network is not connected to the internet at all. Each laptop has internet via free wifi and local connection.
For devices like iphones that have no ethernet or other method.. you could use local wireless and public wireless.. but in turns.. still the only advantage is less issues with double NAT.. if that causes problems.. then this is an alternative.
