IPad Network

I deleted my home network on my iPad the other day as it wasn't finding it. I set it up again with the same network name and it now works fine, but didn't know which security to use. I was given the following choices; None, WEP, WPA, WPA2, WPA Enterprise or WPA2 Enterprise. For whatever reason I opted for WEP, but which one should I actually use and why a particular one over another?

Hello Simon:
I have never done it, but I think you need to reset the base station:

IPAD/Network Shares/Active Directory Domain

Can an IPAD connect to Network Shares within an Server 2003 Active Directory Domain? If so how?

The iPad cannot natively connect to file shares. There are third-party apps that allow this, though. FileBrowser is one that is often recommended:

though there are others.

Hello,
EXCLUDE=SCHEMA:"IN ('SYS','SYSTEM','OUTLN','PS','SYSADM','DBSNMP','PEOPLE','DIP','ORACLE_OCM','CSMIG','PSMON','PERFSTAT'"It seems that it lacks the right parenthesis on the above syntax.
According to the Note *1133013.1* of My Oracle Support, a wrong syntax of the EXCLUDE parameter may cause the error ORA-39126: Worker unexpected fatal error in KUPW$WORKER.GET_TABLE_DATA_OBJECTS* if you use IMPDB with a Network Link.
So you may correct the EXCLUDE parameter and try again.
Hope this help.

I am currently having problems accessing a network connection. I have reset my IPAD network connections and am still having a problem. I know that it is not my network because I can access the internet on my laptop computer.

I am having problems opening any email or apps on my IPAD 2. It says there is no network connection but I don't have any problems accessing the internet on my laptop.

In any event, if your OS X version is 10.7.x, download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Lion:
Lion: AirPort Utility 5.6.
If your OS X version is 10.5.x or 10.6.x, download and install AirPort Utility 5.5.3:
Leopard, Snow Leopard: AirPort Utility 5.5.3.
After you install the appropriate version of AirPort Utility, open it. The program will be located in your Utilities folder, which in turn is found in your Applications folder.
To open the Utilities folder, go to the Finder and select "Utilities" from the Go menu:
AirPort Utility 5.6 looks like this:
... but make sure you use the version of AirPort Utility you just downloaded.
Launch AirPort Utility and select your Time Capsule. Click Manual Setup, then the Guest Menu tab, then you can elect to disable the guest network, or to establish whatever security settings you want.
The window looks somewhat like this:
If your version of AirPort Utility does not look anything like that, you are probably not using the one you just downloaded. Find it and start over.
When you are finished configuring your Time Capsule, click Update and allow the Time Capsule to restart.

Ipad network connection is slow; can't reach server

My iPad and iPhone are unable to reach some websites or to download some things. The Internet works fine on my PC desktop running Windows 7, but it has a physical connection it's not on WiFi. The Apple devices tell me that they "can't reach the server" or they are just extremely slow.
Any ideas what the problem may be?

Hello dianne,
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.

IPad network adapter wifi + 3G multiple connections

I have an iPad2 64gb wifi+3g on Verizon. Wifi seems to automatically take network priority over 3g for mail and internet. This would be a nice feature, except that often I use my wifi connection to connect a particular iPad app with a digital audio mixer and would like to continue using my 3g connection for data/internet. If I were on my MBP I would be able to tell an application to use a certain connection. Is there a way to do this on the iPad or do I have to wait for a jailbreak app?
Thanks!
-Steve

Well it's a shared network so with half duplex wireless, your speed is cut in half. If your connect at 54mbps it's really half of that. So actual throughput should be around 27mbps. The iPad 2 isn't 802.11n so the max should be 54mbps 27mbps actual.

Hi,
Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
Restart the iPad.
More help here for Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Also my home button has been very sketchy lately. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt.
Probably a good idea to get that repaired. If you just purchased this iPad you have 14 days from purchase for an exchange or refund.

Will iPad network with iMac when iOS 5 is downloaded?

I've been waiting for the day when the iPad and iMac recognize each other in order to network or at least share files like iMac and MacBook Pro. Will iOS 5 help with this?

The only info that I'm aware of that has been released about iOS 5 is on this page http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/ . For anything else we'll have to wait until if/when it is announced

2 iPads, but can only connect one iPad at a time to my home network. Is this a known issue with Mac/iPads in general?

At home I have a HP PC, netbook and Sony laptop with no connection issues. Last year I bought an iPad 1 for my wife. This year I bought an iPad 2 for myself. However, only one iPad can connect to the wifi home network at a time. If I am using the iPad2 then the iPad1 fails to connect to the internet. if the iPad1 is being used then the iPad2 cannot connect. I tried resetting iPad network settings for both, reset router, and updated both iPads to latest software/firmware yesterday. Right now the only iPad that shows any connection is the iPad1. The iPad2 does not see the home network or any other outside network. Any suggestions or ideas on how to resolve this? It is odd the network issues only affect the iPad's.

@dananova,
It sounds like you need to either increase the number of dynamic IP addresses your router will hand out or change some of your devices to static IP addresses.
Check the router manual on how to change the dynamic IP range of your router. If you don't have a manual, you can go to Belkin's website and download it.
To change the IP address of your iPads to static addresses, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and tap the ">" next to the name of your wireless network. DHCP should be highlighted. Write down the all the settings on the screen. Next tap the Static button. Enter the exact same information that you copied from the DHCP screen with the exception of the last 3 digits of the IP address. Enter a new 3 digit number in this spot. Generally the original IP address will end with a low number such as 009, so pick a number that is not that low but less than 255. I would suggest a range of 240 to 250, unless the original IP range falls near this range. Also make sure you use a different 3 digits for each device you set to use a static IP address.

I have just updated the i06 software for my ipad and it will not connect to my home wifi network - all my other devices are able to connect - i have tried all troubleshooting options and none have worked - please help

I have just updated the i06 software for my iPad and it will not connect to my home wifi network - all my other devices are able to connect to my wifi network.
I have attempted all troubleshooting actions suggested and nothing has worked. I have restored my iPad network and factory settings - Please help - this is frustrating me

you have to set up your router to solve th problem. first find and write down the ipad mac address.
then log on to your router using your laptop or any device that can connect to router at 192.168.0.1 in your web browser. please check out my posting about how to resolve the wifi connection problem.
i think the ios6 update has reset the networking but if you set up the router then you should not have the same problem any more.

IPads banned from Princeton network baring software upgrade..

Basically, My ipad appears to be a giant ipod with no internet : / Princeton university network has basically banned the devices from the network.
It would appear that they won't let ipads back onto the network until apple fixes the the software issue they are referring to below:
"Apple iPad Network Connectivity Issues
Status: Start Time: End Time: Last Update:
Alert In Progress 4/8/2010 10:13am
Details:
Network monitoring has shown that many iPad devices are causing a problem on the campus network. These devices are continuing to use an IP address they have been leased well beyond the time they should. This behavior causes a disruption on the campus network.
At this time, we have seen this behavior from the majority of iPad devices connected to the campus network. We believe this is a bug within the iPad operating system. OIT has reported this bug to Apple in hopes that they will be able to provide a fix for this issue.
Until a fix is provided by Apple, OIT recommends not connecting your iPad device to the campus network as it is extremely likely it will malfunction. iPad devices that malfunction in this manner while connected to the campus network may need to be blocked to maintain the stability and reliability of campus network services.
Services Affected:
Apple iPad
Does anyone have an idea as to how long something like this might take to fix? Or if there might be a fix?

I read the article that deggie posted:
http://www.pcworld.com/article/134941/ciscosays_network_gear_caused_duke_iphoneflooding.html
The article says that network was being hosed by an ARP storm, which is a very common network problem. It can be caused by any improperly behaving device on the network. Google 'ARP storm' if you want to read more about it.
I'm a retired Cisco router guy. If Cisco says that their software bug caused it, you should believe them.
Here is a document about a Cisco ARP storm vulnerability that they fixed in about the same timeframe as the reports about the ARP storms on iPhones:

Need help choosing how to extend my existing home network to my detached garage?

I have done as much research as possible on this scenario but cannot seem to match the ideal solution with my wants. Perhaps I simply just do not understand networking as well as I thought I did. Either way, any helpful information or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Objective: Extend my wireless network to my detached garage.
My current ISP provider is Time Warner Cable. I have RoadRunner Extreme, which in my area gives consistent speeds of 50 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload when I am connected via ethernet cable. When I upgraded to the "Extreme" package i found out I was forced to use their Motorola SB6580 ... its a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem + wireless router. I was able to access the Motorola's setup options on the internet and I disabled the wireless function. This has allowed me to use my Time Capsule as the primary router to provide wireless access on my home network. I have not had any issues with this setup and is my preferred way to operate.
I have recently moved my home office to the 2nd story of my detached garage and need to extend my wireless network to meet the demands of all my gear. I have decided to achieve this goal by going with one of the following 3 options:
1.) enable the wireless function on the motorola modem making it the primary router. move my time capsule out to the office and use it in bridge mode. However I do not think I understand bridge mode correctly. I thought the secondary router (in this case my TC) in bridge mode needed to be connected w/ an ethernet cable at all times to enable this feature? If I understand similar networking discussions I will lose the ethernet ports with this option? If this isnt called Bridge mode once i take away the ethernet cable what is it "technically" called?
2.) buy a 2nd airport extreme base station and create the same type of wireless network extension setup. The difference here is I would leave my motorola's wireless features disabled, use 2 apple products that speak apples to apples wirelessly and relieve myself of all the headaches involved with a neopolitan setup. This seems like the obvious choice b/c Apple products are much more user friendly, but I dont want to spend the $200 on a new router if I can achieve a comparable setup by just enabling the equipment I already have.
3.) use either of these 2 scenarios above & go buy a 150' ethernet cable to join them together. if this is the case wouldnt a $50 hub suffice on the end of the cable? I dont necessarily need to have wireless, just reliable connectivity. I can access the existing wireless network now, but download speeds are not great and things really start to slow down when i have multiple clients connected. I would rather not have to drill through exterior walls, bury conduit and install learn how to install data wall plates, but i will if this is the pros far out way the cons.
Current modem/router placement: if standing @ the front door of my 1 story house facing out towards the street my motorola modem/router is in the front right-hand corner of the house.
Distance location of the detached garage office setup: if standing @ my front door my my work area is in the far back left corner of my property. it is approx 175' from the router and on the 2nd story of the garage. I said 150' cable earlier b/c i could relocate the router to a bedroom on the opposite end of the house, however this would eleminate the current wired status of the items connected to it and I would prefer to keep them wired in.
clients connected in the house: (4) apple tv's; Roku; Xbox; Wii; Playstation 3; (2) Lenovo laptops; iPad; (2) Blackberry's; (2) iPhones; iPod touch; (2) wireless netowrk printers; (2) smart tv's ... a handful of these are currently wired into the time capsule now which provides an uninterupted viwing experience for the MLB package. This of course trumps all opportunity costs involved with moving the router. There is nothing more frustrating than a screen buffering in the botton of the 9th inning after you've sat there for 3 hours.
clients connected in the office: (2) 27" imacs; apple tv; iPad; network printer; Wii; Harmony Link universal remote; Mac Book Pro ...
I have approx 5TB of digital media that is shared over the network via shared iTunes libraries that I would like to access as well. iCloud helps with all of our household gadgets as far as acessibility but with all the backups going on simutaneously it also creates headaches when you need the throughput. I need to do a better job of managing those settings. nonetheless, I would like some guidance on the best way to extend my current netowrk, suggestions for better scenarios i did not mention and thus am probably not aware of and any networking 101 schooling if it doesnt sound like i understand the way bridge mode/network extension works. sorry for the long post and thank you for your time & help.

Ethernet beats all other solutions hands down..
A single ethernet connection from wherever is the closest point in the house to the garage office... wins. You can plug a router working as AP and switch or pure switch on to it. Get a cabler in to do the job.. and they can probably figure it out and do the whole job whilst you scatch your head.. yes you will pay for it.. but a cabler knows how to do it. And most likely leave the inside network exactly as it is. Since office is important to be reliable.. there is one and one only reliable method.. ethernet.
If the garage and house are on one electrical circuit.. which is doubtful if it is a separate building then EOP adapters can often work well.. They do not handle earth leakage protection, breakers (rather than fuses) or meters at all well.. but if they are simply all connected to power.. behind the same meter and using old fashioned fuse box.. EOP rated at 200mbps or some now are 500mbps can work reasonably well. Speed about the same as wireless at its best but if it works when installed will generally not change with the weather, moon, and wind direction which wireless is liable to do.
Wireless bridging.. hmm avoid if possible. For reliable connection no.. apple products can do wireless repeater but as you mentioned that turns off the ethernet ports except for the Express.. that is the only unit you can use as a bridge and plug a switch into it. Why Apple why??
So if you want to bridge two points by wireless buy specialised wireless bridge.. that means an AP in the house plugged into the existing network.. and AP unit perhaps on the outside of the garage.. or in windows if you have a window in the house that looks at a window in your office. Look at products from companies like ubiquiti.. they are not too expensive but professional equipment and designed for precisely this kind of work.
Hence the reliability is dramatically better than domestic stuff.. and will require a lot less work to maintain the link.
Conclusion.. wire it.
Unless you rent the house.. an investment in ethernet cabling install once properly and forget .. beats every other solution even if it costs x5 as other solutions.

How do I send emails from various accounts in gmail from my iPad?

I imap 3 accounts through my gmail account. Gmail, in it's browser form, allows me to choose from which account I send an email from in a drop-down menu. I don't see how to do this on the iPad mail app or through safari for iPad.
If not possible, what are ur solutions for efficiently responding to emails from various accounts on the iPad (network solutions, gmail, and university).
Thanks!

If you log into Gmail from a computer, you can specify in the settings to always reply from the account the email came from. You should only have to do it once for each account.
