How to setup a Class B network with WRT54GX ver. 2

Hi all,
I bought a WRT54GX ver. 2 router. I wanna know how to setup the IP address say 128.1.50.136 with subnet mask 255.255.0.0 (Class B network)? By the way, 128.1.0.0 is my network zone.
If the router can't change, what should I do? Any other router support Class B network?
Thanks!

I did but it doesn't work. It seems don't have 255.255.0.0 to select.
would you state more clear of how to do it? Thanks!
It does not have that because it does not support it... the router runs on CLASS C only because it was designed and made for SOHO only... bussiness lines of Linksys or Cisco can do that....but not this router...

How to setup peer to peer network with Vista machine.

Hello,
I just got my very first Apple computer last week and I'd like to copy some files from my Dell PC with Vista Premium installed. I don't have a wireless network setup yet (hopefully soon), but I'd like to copy some files from my PC to my Mini. I was wondering if it were possible to network the two systems using just an ethernet cable between the two.
Might someone know how to set this up or refer me to a document that explains all the steps needed to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Apple have a page that talks you through doing this:

Probably a good place to start.

How do i create a little network with my i-mac and macbook

how do i create a little network with my i-mac and macbook

Hello:
To give a sensible answer, a little more information is needed.
I am guessing that you want to set up a wireless network as you have both a desktop and laptop.
There are some pretty good tutorials/articles in the knowledge base articles.

How can I expand my wireless network with a Time Capsule and Airport Express?

My entire house is wired for ethernet access (2 floors). I have a Time Capsule on the 2nd floor that reaches the entire house except for one room.
In this one room I have an ethernet port plugged into an Airport Express.
The problem I encounter is that I have two separate wifi networks with two separate names. I realize I can extend the wireless network on the 2nd floor to the 1st floor but I can only do this wirelessly to my knowledge, and the entire problem is that the signal doesn't reach the front room. Also, there is really no place in-between that the AE can be placed to extend the reach. The building is concrete and steel, I think that has a lot to do with the problem.
My question is: Can I have two wireless routers (connected to the same home network via ethernet) broadcast the same wifi network? I also have a SONOS system that further complicates things, I'm afraid. Would it help if I drew some sort of diagram?
Thanks!

Your network is not working as you describe.. or I have misunderstood the layout..
What is the broadband type? Modem is where? What is the main router?
From your screen shots the main router is the airport express that covers one room which seems wrong.
Why isn't the TC the main router? or both bridged.. if you go back and look at the apple document.. one or both apple routers are in bridge mode..
You are having issues with setup .. half of which is caused by v6 airport utility.
What OS are you running? Please install 5.6 utility.. do it.. do it now!!
Easy for Lion.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Messy but possible for ML.
How to load 5.6 into ML.
1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
2. Download and install unpkg.
http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
You cannot uninstall 6.1 so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.

How to setup a Seamless Transaction Gateway with PayPal (Australia Only)

I've been working with the team at PayPal to allow BC Partners to set up a cost effective way to setup a Seamless Transaction Shopping Cart Process on their BC eCommerce website without the need for a 3rd Party Merchant Provider like eWay or Secure Pay or their bank. This is designed for entry level businesses who want to control their setup costs and keep all funds in one place (PayPal).
Currently BC doesn't support Paypal's Payments Pro plan in Australia so you are limited with either a non-seamless payment process or using a 3rd Party Merchant provider with can be costly.
Without going into too much detail, the setup on PayPal's side is a mixture of a couple of plans, and is a little complicated however through our discussions we come to an arrangement of any additional fee's associated with the setup being waived since this is more so of a technical workaround than anything else.
Basically PayPal is the merchant provider, and the customer doesn't leave your website when making a purchase through the Shopping Cart. The setup is only $25/month plus transaction fees of between 1.1 to 2.4% + 30 cents depending on the number of payments (this is just an initial guide and confirmed on your discussion with the PayPal).
Because the setup involves quite a few steps and departments I've arranged a contact that will fast track this process and is familiar with this unique setup.
How to setup PayPal for a Seamless Transaction Process
Sign up for PayPal Business account Timeframe: <20 minutes
Email Peter [email protected] or phone (02) 8288 0333. CC me [email protected] or mention my name so he can correctly setup the process and apply the discounted pricing.
Prepare for the Verification process for the PayPal account (Proof of ID, Proof of Address, Business documents etc).
Wait for Account Verification. You will be informed to setup both PayFlow Pro* and Website Payments Pro (*the PayFlow payment will be waived as mentioned previously). Timeframe: up to 5 business days depending on swift supply of required documentation.
Wait for your Billing Agreement for Website Payments Pro once application has been approved. Sometimes they will receive a phone call to verify details of the application. Timeframe: Up to 72 hours
Login into your PayPal account to accept the Billing Agreement.
Notify Peter once the Billing Agreement has been accepted so your PayFlow Pro can be linked to your Website Payments Pro
Login into your Business Catalyst Website and navigate e-Commerce > Payment Gateways
Select PayPal PayFlow Payment Gateway (..,AU, ..)
Enter your Username, PayPal Password, and add VSA as the Partner
Setting up PayPal Payments
If you also want to make payments via PayPal (ie, with the customers Pay Pal account) you can continue with setting up the PayPal Website Standard secure with your PayPal Customer ID and your PDT Token which you'll need to setup in your PayPal Account.
If you have any questions give me or Peter an email. I'll continue to update this document as I go.
Please note this setup is current for Australian Pay Pal Customers only. This process does not support re-occurring billing.

Dennis, sounds like you are having issues connecting to your network. Here is what we are going to do.
On your first question, and second question for that matter, I would suggest using a WPA password. Our printers doe not associate with the other types as well as WPA. You should be able to do that, though I have not personally set up a router that way to have experience in how it will react with the networked devices. As for the issues you are having, once the settings are all in the correct order I am going to suggest we connect the printer to the network through the computer.
What you will do is install the printer using a USB connection, then re-run the setup software. Here there should be an option for USB to Wireless. This will be the easiest way to be sure that all the settings are correctly transferred over.

How can I extend my wireless network with the Time Capsule?

I recently bought a Time Capsule and set it up, backed up all my data, etc. It is currently plugged in to my AT&T Uverse wireless router via a LAN CAT5e cable. I am wondering if it is possible to wirelessly extend my preexisting network with the Time Capsule so I can move it somewhere else in my house where it can still pick up the signal but extend it. And if possible, how so? Or does it ALWAYS have to be wired'connected to my router for the internet to work?
Thanks in advance.

I am wondering if it is possible to wirelessly extend my preexisting network with the Time Capsule so I can move it somewhere else in my house where it can still pick up the signal but extend it.
Sorry but no. Extending using only wireless would require that the Time Capsule connect to another Apple router that is producing the wireless network.
Another way of saying the same thing is that you must have two Apple routers to be able to extend the signal wirelessly.

HT1338 How to setup an external HDMI screen with a Mac Book Air

How do I setup an external HDMI screen with a Mac Book Air? I am using an Apple accessory Moshi cable interface with a Samsung Syncmaster screen SB24B300 and I am unable to get any response. Thank you.

You need to connect it to the computer using either USB or Thunderbolt. Setup is simply prepping the SSD:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.

How can i extend a wireless network with time capsule

How can i extend an existing wifi verizon wireless network with time capsule? the router is connected on the bottom floor. want to boost the signal to a home office on the top floor, four flights up. connect time capsule via ethernet cable to iMac on 4th floor? Do I have to start a second wifi network or can I set it to just boost the one I have? thank you

How can i extend an existing wifi verizon wireless network with time capsule?
It all depends on what you mean by "extend".
If you plan to "extend" by connecting the Time Capsule to the Verizon router using a wired Ethernet cable, this can be accomplished.
If you were hoping to connect the Time Capsule to the Verizon router using wireless only, unfortunately the Time Capsule and Verizon products are not compatible for that purpose.
Check with Verizon to see if they offer an "extender" or "repeater" that could be located very close to the Time Capsule.
This would provide both more wireless coverage and also allow you to connect the Time Capsule using an Ethernet cable from the "extender" or "repeater".

How to setup a small office network

Hello,
I am looking to setup a small office network comprising 6 G4 macs (existing computers) that have been upgraded to the newest OS version. What is the best way to go about networking these computers together in terms of being able to share files, internet connection, access to peripherals and also implementing a firewall.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

1, Get a cable internet ISP account; depending on your service you should be able to secure a 5Mbps down and 2Mbps up on the cable e.g. Cox or Comcast.
2. Get a good router. The mass market Linksys and Netgear routers aren't very good in terms of reliability. I use a ZyXEL P-330W router is the best I've ever seen. Its reliable and very efficient in terms of throughout. The Apple Airport Extreme is good.
3. Set up the router to support UPnP. This way all computers will be able to share iChatAV video conferencing. If you enabled "port forwarding" only one Mac would be able to use iChatAV video conferencing.
4. Set up your router for DHCP to dynamically issue Internet address to all your computers.
5. Setup the wireless router for encryption such as WPA. This will encrypt wireless communication.
6. Setup the wireless router for only your computers. You'll have to get the MAC/AirPort ID network addresses as expressed in terms of an xx:xx:xx:xx address. You can get this thru your Systems Preferences -> Network window -> AirPort (in the sidebar) -> Advanced button.
7. If you have Ethernet in your office then skip steps 5 and 6 above.
8. On each computer open up the System Preferences -> Sharing and check-off the File Sharing. Set your user access preferences appropriately.
9. Get a Network enabled All-in-one printer and setup Printer Sharing options. Hook-it up to your network and add your printer by clicking on the "+" sign in your "Print and Fax" Preferences.
10. Don't enable Apple Firewall on each Mac. The router will be the Firewall.
Ok. That's the short-hand.. plug it all in and go!

How to setup 24 hours guest network access with Time Capsule 4th gen. ?

Hello,
I just bought a Time Capsule 2TB and I cannot find the setting to limit the network access to 24 hours.
I updated the firmware and Airport Utility to the latest version and it seems that most of help on this setting I fond on internat are based on previous version.
By example I do not have a "Manual setting" in the "Base Station" menu like described in the manual.
Can someone help on this ?
Thank you and Regards,
Sebastien

Suggest that you download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion. It will have the settings that you are looking for.
You can keep both AirPort Utility 5.6 and 6.0 on your Mac and use the one that you need.

How do i connect to a network with cifs

I'm looking to buy a Netgear NAS drive and I have an issue trying to figure out how I'm going to connect with it.
I have macs running 10.6 and 10.8 and according to the manufacturers the only way to connect is using the CIFs protocols.
Does anyone have experience and knowledge to share on this kind of set up and if this is the best way to set up a home NAS systems?
The other question I have is I read that a CIFs configured networks can only handle file sizes under 4gb, is this true?

Yes 4 GB is the limit for CIFS or SMB.
Once you know the IP use like...
smb://10.0.1.5
smb://192.168.1.3
cifs://10.0.1.5
cifs://192.168.1.3
I'd avoid a NAS drive despite the Rage, I'd opt for a Mac Fornatted external drive.

How do I set up printer network with my two macs?

I tried to find an answer to this "newbie" question but didn't seem to find exactly what I am needed to know.
We have a desk top Mac G5 (Tiger) that belongs to my partner (lets call that Jim's Computer) which is connected to an HP 6310 printer via USB. I have a new Macbook (Leopard) that I use exclusively with the Airport terminal. I need to be able to click print on the laptop what ever office I am in, and go to the main office and get my page off the printer. Both computers are on the same connection, the airport is a branch off the main hub.
We have set both computers to "share printers" on all accounts. My Macbook sees "Jim's Computer" and will subset it so I can actually see all three user files on his computer (Jim, mrbarth, B&B guest). I can easily access my folders and files in my accounts from computer to computer via Airport this way. I can not, however, use the printer function. I also need to point out that his computer is password protected for his account(Master) but I have access to both my account and guest account files if this makes any difference.
Here is how I have both computers set up. Please tell me what I am doing wrong or what I need to add to make this work.
On the main Desktop (w/printer attached) I have the printer Info which states its location at "Jim's Computer", its host name with a "lot of numbers plus our Internet service provider's CC.shawcable.net". It is set on the master and other accounts to share printer. On my laptop I have (under options and supplies) Location "Jim's computer" and host name "localhost". I also have the printer configuration to share on my Macbook.
Do I need to somehow change the location of my Macbook configuration to read something like: "Jim's computer/mrbarth" or "Jim's computer.mrbarth"?
Sorry for not understanding this. I am sure it is very easy and I just have one thing in the chain wrong. I am still a newbie on this even though I have been at the keyboards for over 10 years.

First, you need to try logging into his admin account and trying to print. If that works then most likely there's something he must configure for the account you normally log into on his computer to allow a remote user to print.
Second, consult the printer's manual to ascertain what if anything may require configuration to allow wireless printing. It's also likely that if you cannot print wirelessly that it's a problem with the printer driver that was selected when you added the shared printer. If there's a GutenPrint driver for you printer model try using it instead of the manufacturer's proprietary driver. If you don't have these drivers installed you can install them from your OS X Installer Disc's Optional Installs installer or you can download them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Usually troubleshooting this type of issue requires starting from the basics. First be sure you can print when the printer is connected directly to your computer. Then check to be sure you can print with the printer shared from the other computer without any sort of imposed protections, firewalls, etc. Since this is a USB printer be sure you enable Printer Sharing on the computer to which the printer is connected. File Sharing is not a requirement for printing, but Printer Sharing is. Once you determine things are working with the most basic setup, you can start adding in each piece to the final setup checking along the way until either everything works or you find where it stops working. You can then start troubleshooting that issue.

How can I extend a wireless network with my AirPort Extreme Base Station?

Today I purchased a brand new, dual-band base station to replace my Belkin N router, as I have had a handful of firewall, coverage, and other networking problems in my house lately. First off, I really like this router and it was very easy to setup. My MacBook Pro could use both bands and established a 300 Mbit/s link very quickly. After tweaking various settings to my liking, I was also able to maximize the connections on many of my non-Apple machines and devices. I noticed that the range of its network was better than my Belkin's, but unfortunately, it failed to completely saturate the area sufficiently. Since the Belkin still works well enough, I was hoping I could bridge them together one way or the other.
The Belkin router does not support any bridge mode that I know of, but the AirPort Extreme should be able to join a wireless network and then extend that over WiFi and Ethernet, correct? I would like to place them at opposite ends of my home so I can get strong WiFi signals everywhere inside. However, when I try to get the base station to connect to my preexisting WiFi connection, it tells me that I can't extend the network and fails to join.
So is this possible? And if it is, how would I go about setting it up? I know it would probably be easier if I had a simple range booster such as an AirPort Express, but I didn't buy one while I was at Fry's since I hoped I could make use of the older Belkin. This is its product page, if needed. Thanks for any suggestions.

Sorry, but no. The AirPort Extreme Base Station cannot "join" a network like the AirPort Express or Time Capsule, but you wouldn't want to do this anyway because in this configuration these devices will only perform as wireless clients ... not routers.
Instead, the AirPort Extreme can either be extended or can extend another 802.11g or 802.11n AirPort ... or a very very few non-AirPort devices.
One option for your Belkin would be to connect it to the AirPort Extreme by Ethernet but this may not meet your requirements or be a desirable situation. Otherwise, you would need to get another AirPort to extend your current one.

How do I control my home network with NWM on all my computers

I just activated my NWMagic and I have downloaded the program on each computer on our family network. My problem is each of them have access to all the controls. I want to be able to have one person, me, control what happens on the network and the network settings. How do I do this?

I am not sure. I want to be the administrator to our family's home network. I purchased NWM so I can monitor my network and control what my children are doing on the internet. I had to download the NWM on all of the computers on my network. The problem is each computer can access all the NWM software.
I was going to uninstall it on the kids computers and I couldn't do that. I want them to have internet acess but I want to use the controls that NWM has. When I go on their computer, I see exactly what I have on my computer. I don't want them to know it is even there. I want to monitor them, limit their time on the internet and be watch out for them.
When I configured my network I put it on a flash drive like directed but it wouldn't work. So I downloaded the whole program and used my activation code on each one. We have 5 computers on our home network. I want my children also to have access to the printer on my computer.
I'm not sure what to do. Everytime I call the tech support it costs me money to have them come on to my computer and look at things. I just spent $39.00 for NWM and then another $9.99 today to get it set up right. I like the features and it helps me trouble shoot if one of my kids mess around with my computer when I am not around.
Any help would be so appreciated.
