Ipad push applications on Apples Dual band router - Help

All, why are my push apps not pushing when I'm connected to the Apple dual band router, internet works fine though? Funny thing is at my moms house it pushes fine with her cheap netgear. Can someone with a dual band and push working on your iPad please provide what settings you used on the router ? Is it best to just a separate name for 5ghz ?
Its been so hard to find help on this. Thanks

I am also finding streaming (from YouTube) to be poor both on wifi and 3G. My first gen iPad had a lot of problems, but streaming was never one of them. Signal strength is good and I haven't changed any network hardware or settings.

  • IPad Air: stumped by streaming problem on dual band router

    I have a dual band router at home. My iPad Air will stream very poorly when connected to the 5 GHz band. By streaming, I mean Netflix, Crackle, etc. Everything works fine if I connect to the 2.4 GHz band. The strange part is that my old iPad One streams fine from either band. Even stranger, downloading stuff like apps or magazines works fine with the iPad Air on either band. The problem is only with the iPad Air when streaming on the 5Ghz band. Any one else has this problem?

  • I have a dual band router. How can I tell if my iPad is using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz.

    I have a dual band router. How can I tell if my iPad is using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz. I want to try and manage all the devices in the house over our WLAN. Thanks. Nik

    I'm not really sure there is a way to tell, it certainly doesn't seem to be something you can set within the iPad so I'd assume that if a 5Ghz frequency is available it would use that, otherwise it would default to using a 2.4Ghz frequency instead.  I'd also assume from having a 5Ghz router myself that there would be some sort of light on your router which will flash on/off when data is recieved so if iPad is your only 5Ghz device and it's sending/receiving data then this light should flash on your router.

  • Dual band router that ipad will stay connected with

    Is there a dual band router that ipad3 will stay connected to

    My son-in-law uses a Netgear model WNDR3700-100NAS Dual Band Router. I just bought one but it hasn't arrived yet. This router is compatible with the iPad: 802.11a/b/g/n, supports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, supports WPA2 encryption.
    I have ATT UVerse, but the UVerse router range is quite low. I bought a wifi repeater, which increases the range somewhat. The output from the UVerse will be plugged in to the Netgear router.

  • NetGear N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR 3400

    Hi all,
    My neighbor and I (Sarah) both live on the second floor of a circa 1820 house.
    Wi-fi is included in our rent.
    Neither of us can connect to the house's NetGear N600 Wireless Dual Band Router (which is on the first floor) with our MacBooks (both purchased new earlier this year and both running Mac OS 10.7).
    We can connect to the network with our iPhones, iPads and Windows Notebooks.
    But when we try to connect with our MacBooks, we get a connection timeout error.
    Any help would be mucho appreciated.
    Mike

    This is a part of the larger MacBook Pro connectivity issue. There are several related threads dealing with the MBP's networking problems. If your unit is suffering from this type of difficulty, good luck ... (or a long ethernet cable)
    (PS Everybody please make noise on this one so apple comes up with a solution.)

  • Wired Apple TV3 not seeing 2.4GHz on dual band router

    I have an iPhone 4 that will not airplay to my apple TV. The iPhone 4 operates on my 2.4GHz band of my dual band router (netgear WNDR3700) The SSID for 2.4 is network and the 5ghz is network-5GHz. Am I to believe that these both must be the same name for the Apple TV to see it? I don't understand why it has issues since my ATV is wired and not using wireless and my 2 iPhone 5, and iPad 2 have no issues AirPlaying. (all on 5GHz) Shouldn't the fact that it is wired mean that it should see any device on my network? I have searched the forums and have not really found and issue like this, so I do apologize if there is one out there that I did not see.
    Thanks for any help, this is really bugging me.

    Alos I just switched my iPhone 5 to 2.4GHz and it worked. Looks like it might be just an issue with my iPhone 4. Weird....

  • I have an older version of the airport extreme, can i still set it up to be a dual band router like the newer versions?

    Wondering if an airport extreme router that I bought back in 2009 will function as a dual band router, similar to the newer versions.  I wish to run my mac off of the lesser Ghz and the periphery devices off of the other(ipad, iphone).  I also have an apple tV, is this possible?

    The 2009 model extremes are simultaneous dual band (but the 2007 model was not - it was dual band, but not simultaneous).  Your problem is that I know of no way to force a given device onto a given bandwidth on an extreme.  Both channels share the same SSID, and a device simple connects via whichever frequency it gets the best connection.
    This is unlike other simultaneous dual band wifi routers.  I use a netgear wndr4500 (n900), and each radio is assigned a different SSID (and can also be configured independently in terms of security settings, and even turned on or off indepentently).  That way, I can force a given dual-band device to connect on a particular frequency by connecting it to that frequency's SSID.  The two SSIDs still function over the same subnet, so all 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz connected devices can see eachother on the same DHCP subnet.
    But, I do not think you can set up an airport extreme like that - that sort of configuration is simply not an option with those devices.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-all-in-one printer & dual band router

    Hi, I'm hoping someone will be able to confirm whether this printer is compatible with my router which is a dual band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. I am not able to connect it to the internet. The box says that the printer is compatible only with 2.4 GHz routers. Would the fact that my router is dual band mean that it will not work with the printer? 

    Hello @JMHouston , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you are looking into your options for a dual band router.  I would love to help.
    The printer will only connect to a 2.4 GHz broadcast.  To quote this document on Print | Rate this content HP Printers - Tips and Workarounds for Common Wireless Network Printer Iss...
    Dual band routers provide both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHZ frequency ranges. HP printers connect to the 2.4GHz frequency band and the 20 MHz bandwidth only. Many dual band routers let devices connected to the 2.4 GHz band communicate with devices connected to the 5.0 GHz band. But not all routers support this feature.
    To manage the different bands and what devices connect to each, try assigning a unique SSID (network name) to each band. For example, name the 2.4 GHz band to “Mynetwork” and the 5.0 GHz band to “Mynetwork-5G”.
    Communication and connectivity issues might occur with the printer connected to the 2.4 GHz band and the computer connected to the 5 GHz band. Try connecting the computer to the 2.4 GHz band.
    As long as your router is broadcasting both network channels, you should have no issue connecting.
    Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Computer doesn't see second channel in Dual Band router

    I have just purchased a Cisco Linksys simultaneous dual band wireless N gigabit router (model WRT610N-EU). 
    The router has two channels, 1) linksys and 2) linksys_media.  Both my computer and my TV see and connect without problem to linksys.  However, my intention with the dual band router what to have one channel for my laptop and one for the TV.  Unfortunately, neither see the linksys_media channel.  What is strange is that a visiting friend was able to see both channels on his laptop.  So why don't I?
    Is there a compatibility issue here or am I doing something wrong?
    BTW, my laptop is less than six months old and is running Windows 7 (newer than my friend's laptop).  The TV is a top of the line model and two months old.

    Most likely your devices don't support the 5 GHz band. Check the specifications of the wireless adapters in your wireless devices.

  • Is the 802.11n 1st generation a dual band router?

    Is the 802.11n 1st generation a dual band router?

    Yes, but not simultaneously I think.  If you look at the tech specs (http://support.apple.com/specs/#airport) for the Airport Extreme, the 1st and 2nd generation all say "2.4GHz or 5GHz" while the 3rd generation and up say "2.4GHz and 5GHz simultaneously".

  • Connecting Harmony Hub to Apple Dual Band Router

    It appears that the Harmony Hub only connects to 2.4 ghz and my dual Airport Extreme, although it sends out both 5 and 2.4 doesn't work with it. If we can't find a work around one thing we are considering is whether we can add a second (2.4ghz only) router to the network either directly to the modem or as an extension of the network. I'm a little (a lot) over my head on this stuff so would appreciate any suggestions or approaches. thanks

    Hi @SP-Michigan ,
    I see that you are experiencing issues with setting up the printer over the network on the Comcast Dual Band Router.
    I will do my best to help you.
    Restore the factory settings on the printer.
    Press the OK button on the printer, go to service, then select restore defaults.
    Print a configuration page from the printer to make sure the IP and SSID are cleared.
    Most likely it is the settings on the router that might need to be changed.
    If it is set to 5 GHZ network you may need to change to 2.4 GHZ. (rename the 5ghz or shut it off)
    You might also have to set it to WPA personal.
    The WPA key setting needs to be on AES to work correctly not TKIP.
    Multi casting needs to be turned on.
    Firewall on router has to have open ports for printer.
    If you have Mac Filtering you need to give printer hardware address from configuration page.
    You might need to contact Comcast for further assistance to check those settings.
    I have provided a document for setting up the wireless connection or you can follow my different methods provided.
    Installing the Printer Software on a Wireless or Wired (Ethernet) Network.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Problem connecting 1525nw to Comcast Dual Band Router

    I recently got a new Comcast Dual Band router. Since then I have not been able to connect my HP 1525nw wireless printer to the network. Have tried all methods, WPS, PushButton, Pin, installation thru HP drivers, resetting to factory defaults etc.......any suggestions?
    BTW - the printer was connected earlier to the Comcast Single Band router. It used to work just fine then.

  • Kindly Is the Linksys E4200 Dual Band Router compatible with DHCP and VPN ?

    Kindly 
    Is the Linksys E4200 Dual Band Router compatible with DHCP and VPN?
    Thanks,

    Linksys/Cisco E4200 are compatible with DHCP. Second, these Wireless-N routers are only capable of enabling the VPN traffic to pass through the device.  You will need a VPN router and software to create the actual network to connect with your VPN client.

  • Wireless Expander WRE54G and Dual Band router WRT610N

    I used to have a band G-type network with a Linksys Router and a Wireless Expander WRE54G. It worked fine.
    Now I have a WRT610 N Dual Band router. I am trying to connect the WRE54G to the netowrk (using the G-band of course) but it doesn't work. Runnig the Setup utility from the CD (og the Range Expander) ends in a "Site survey" which terminates with an error "Site survey fail". Maybe the installation program is not able to handle the WRT610N.
    Any suggestions?

    Press and hold the reset button on WRE for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your Expander, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...
    Connect your Expander to a computer, click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>> Network Connections - Right click on the icon for Local area connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the following IP address'- Provide IP Address - 192.168.1.5, Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0...Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...
    Now open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.240. Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...It should open your Expander set-up...
    Once you get to the set-up page,change the Expander Settings...While changing the Expander settings you have to make sure that the Wireless Settings(SSID/Network Name and WEP/WPA Key) are identical on both the devices(Router and Expander)...Also make sure to change the Expander's default IP to match your network and Gateway Address should be your Router's address...ex.Expander's IP Address : 192.168.1.240(assuming your router's default IP Address is 192.168.1.1),Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1...
    After configuring the Expander you should disconnect it from the Computer and go into Local Area Connection TCP/IP Properties and set it back to Obtain IP Address Automatically...Disconnect the Expander from the computer and power cycle both the devices(Expander and Router) ...Your Expander should be configured...

  • Extend an AE dual-band router with a 2nd AE dbr: will automatic mode work?

    I have a new Apple Extreme dual-band router, and it works just great. My N devices all get the maximum bandwidth, and the G devices connect easily as well. I have a section of my house that gets weak reception, and want to extend the network with a second router.
    If I bought a second Apple Extreme dual-band router, and configured it to Extend Wireless Network and Allow Wireless Clients, could I then leave it on the default radio mode of Automatic? It seems like either router would then be able to tell if the wireless clients were N or G, but communication between the routers would be N. I want to keep the maximum bandwidth for my N devices.
    Thanks in advance
