IPX not working with new Network Configuration

Here is my situation. I have been engaged with a customer that had the following equipment.
1x 3640 Router running IOS c3640-d-mz.121-3a.T1
1x 3550 L3 Switch running IOS 12.1.15 EMI
8 x 3548XL L2 Switches running IOS c3500xl-c3h2s-mz.120-5.WC13.bin
When I was asked to look at the network they were experiencing slow LAN speeds (10.8MB file between two LAN hosts around 12 minutes). This network consisted of 10 Class C networks 10.5.60.x - 10.5.69.x, these networks were based on the 3560 split between two interfaces. Odd ranges on FE 0/0 and Even on FE0/1. The router was acting as a stub router on a T1 from the clients core network provider. This core provider has IPX services that my client has to be able to use. Under the old design there was no VLAN structure and basic network services such as DHCP barely worked.
Now the network is configured with the 3640 router as the edge routing device and the 3550-48-EMI is configured as the LAN routing devices. I have split the 10.5.60.x range in two using the lower segment for VLAN 60 and using the upper range as the communication network between FE 0/48 on the 3550 (ip addr 10.5.60.130 255.255.255.128) and FE 0/0 on 3640 (ip addr 10.5.60.131 255.255.255.128), these interfaces are connected via an ISL Trunk. Each VLAN is set at the 3550 with the gateway of 10.5.x.1. Each of the 8 3548XL switches is configured with all of the VLANS and are linked to the 3550 via 100 BaseT and 1000BaseT interfaces configured as dot1q trunks. Multicast routing is enabled on the 3550 to allow services like MDNS and Imaging to occur across VLANS.
With all this said IPX is not working. My 3640 edge router is still seeing all of its upstream IPX servers and networks. This router also sees the local IPX network as connected out of FE 0/0, based on this config setting (ipx network 1368023) FE 0/0. I'm guessing that this piece of the puzzle is based on my L3 changes on the LAN. But I just am not able to wrap my head around what it is. Any help that could be offered concerning this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Whatever the solution is it needs to happen with no more hardware and this new structure has to stay in place. I have been able to fix all ip network services such as DHCP and the customer reports a 1013% speed increase from the point when I first arrived. The 10.8 MB file mentioned above now transfers in about 8 to 10 seconds across the LAN.
Again Thanks.

I was pretty sure of that. Is there anyway to tag the IPX traffic to a VLAN from the 3600 as described in http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/120newft/120t/120t1/ipx_vlan.htm Which so far hasnt worked...
Or is there a way that I can simply use broadcasts at a L2 level to accomplish connectivity? This was working like a charm under the bad network configuration that was purely L2 and 10 subnets drapped accross two router interfaces. It seems like there should be some sort of simple fix I'm missing.
Otherwise is there a way to have the VLAN clients talk up to the 3600 in order to get IPX information? In the end this is a short term fix. 3 weeks from now the IPX app is being replaced by and IP app. But I need it for 3 more weeks.
Thanks,
Josh

Wifi suddenly not working with new networks?

This is already my second iPhone 5, since the last went into warranty because, ironically, of a wifi problem.
The other day, I was just minding my own business when I decided to try to connect to the local wifi of the place I was at the time, and it wouldn't connect. It would find the network, I would put the given password in and it just stayed there. The keyboard would disappear, like it normally would, but instead of returning to the wifi menu in the Setting app, it just stays there saying "Connecting to "X" network..." and nothing happens, unless I do either thing: if I tap the Home button and go back to Settings, it brings me back to the wifi menu, still unconnected; if I drag down Notification Center or bring up Control Center and bring them up/down again, a pop up shows up saying "Can't connect to the network". Apparently, this is to new networks, since when I got home, it automatically connected to my house's wifi. On the spot, I tried reseting everything from factory, and try to connect to another wifi nearby, since I had a copy of my phone on iTunes, and it worked, and when I came back to that same wifi, it didn't but I scratched the option that it was that router problem, because now I'm at my other apartment in the capital, and tried to connect to wifi (since I reseted everything and had no password saved automatically) and the same thing happened.
Help me out here, I'm going insane!

Turn off your router, wait ten seconds and turn it back on.

HT4623 my voice call services is not working with cellular network...only works fine with wifi..please help?

my voice call services is not working with cellular network...only works fine with wifi..please help?

Since you have already done some sort of reset on your Airport Express, you might as well make sure it was a "hard reset" - follow the instructions for a hard reset found at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108044
Since your Mac is running Leopard, you need to configure the Airport Express using the Airport Utility found in the Applictions->Utilities folder. You cannot install the old software that was supplied on the CD you got with the Airport Express.
In future - if you do something bad with network settings on your Mac, do NOT try to fix it with the Airport Utility. The Airport Utility is only used to configure the Airport Express - and since the problem you have created is on the Mac and not the Airport Express, there is no need to be using the Airport Utility and especially there is no need to be resetting the Airport Express.

Home sharing does not work with new mountain lion update.

home sharing does not work with new mountain lion update. Does anyone else have the same issue. Updated all computers in my home, deauthorized and reauthorized each computer. turn off home sharing and turned it back on. don't know what else to do..please help...

Our Apple TVs continue to lose connection ever since installing Mountain Lion on the host computer. The only thing that fixes them is to quit and relaunch iTunes, which only works unti the ATV goes to sleep. If a movie is paused for more than a few minutes and the ATV goes to sleep, pressing play again on the remote is greeted with "There are no movies on this computer" or "Turn on Home Sharing."
If we stop a video on one ATV and attempt to resume it in another room, the error begins again. The other ATV can't connect until iTunes is relaunched.
My guess is that it has something to do with the new [annoying] security settings. But I still haven't found a fix other than restarting iTunes everytime we want to watch something from our downloads. Fail.

Line-in not working with new driv

Has anyone else had issues with the line-in jack not working with new drivers? Is there a way to get it to work??Very frustrated. Is there a link to the beta drivers, they worked better for me then the new one.

The line input on the mini requires a 'line-level' signal, so the only microphones that work are ones that have an amplified output. Standard mics don't generate enough voltage to drive the mini's amplifiers.
That's the reason the mics work with the Griffin device (it has an amplifier) but not the mini directly.

Zen Micro Photo not working with new XP SP2 install

Okay so my Zen Micro Photo stopped being recognised on my computer about ten months ago when I upgraded to WMP (for BBC iPlayer - it's compulsory to have it). Anyway I li'ved with this and have now got thoroughly sick of the same songs and nothing new so I have done a fresh install (on a brand new hard dri've) of Windows XP SP2 WMP9 with the sole intention of using this install/hard dri've?for the player. I used the original installation disk and it prompted me to upgrade to WMP0 as I installed everything. There were no errors during the install and I rebooted when prompted to.
When I attach the player it is recognised by the machine (task bar icon and correctly labelled in System > Hardware > Device Manager which reports it to be?working okay) but the Creative media software says "player not attached" when it is. It is not visible on My Computer as a dri've so I STILL have no access to the player. Player screen reports "docked" with a logo and is flashes a charging icon. Driver v5.2.0.0. The player plays fine but hasn't had new music on in almost a year
There is nothing else on the XP install (IE6 and everything - argh!) I did the registry permission tweak thing mentioned?here:?http://support.creative.com/kb/showa....aspx?sid=9287?but it didn't do anything.
Any help greatfully received!

Did you folks search here for "advanced format drive"? People have had numerous weird problems with the new advanced format hard drives in older Toshibas. I can't look up all the threads for you. But here is one:

Airport express not working with optus network

Hi there, the airport express seems not working with my optus network. It is keeping me I cannot access the internet but I do have a wifi signal. Initially I thought there was some problems with Enhernet Wan port on the AE, but after I've done some research I found there might some changes needed to be done with my old router. All I know is im using a NETGEAR router, network type is PPPOE. Also, there were people metioned on the forum that theold modern should be changed to brigdeging mode. I have no idea what is it. Please help. cheers.

Configuration is simple if you start from a factory default condition. Then connect the Airport to AC power and finally to the Internet modem (or modem/router). Open Airport Utility on your Mac or other computer and accept all of the recommendations. After confirming that it works, insert your desired administrative and WiFi passwords.
Do not expect the Airport to respond instantly to the configuration commands. BE PATIENT!

Satellite A110 - WiFi switch is not working with new WiFi card

Hello Everyone
I have a problem with my Toshiba Notebook Satellite A110-178 (PSAB0E). I replaced the original WIFI card Intel 3945abg with Intel Link 5100 and on the new wifi card wifi hardware switch is not working.
New wifi card is discovered and drivers working correct but when I try to scan for wifi networks with IntelPro/Wireless software I have message to turn on hardware switch but it's turn on and not work. On old wifi card swich is working correct - orange light is on. On new card light is off and swich is not working.
Please help

Hi
Maybe you could enable the Wlan card using different way;
Go to device manager -> WLan card properties -> Advanced tab
There you could check if there is a option which would enables the WLan.
Its worth a try
Otherwise its a compatibility issue like suggested by PinkPanther
I read in different threads that this could happens if there is a different pin assignment on miniPCI WLan card and this could not match with the miniPCI slot on the mobo...

Hp Photosmart not working with new router

My Hp Photosmart D110a will not work wirelessly with my new Netgear N600 router. This is the second new router I have tried. With the first one Belkin I could at least get it to print from my PCs. But never with my IPad. Now the printer will not print from anything. I have reset it, entered new passwords etc. spent hours on the phone with tech support. What to do now?

@Ann99, welcome to the forums
I understand your Photosmart D110a model is not working with your new router. I will gladly do my best to help you.
I have some questions and some things for you to try.
1. Is the printer connecting to the wireless network successfully when you run the wireless setup wizard from the printers front panel or is the printer not found when you are running the installation from your PC?
2. What did tech support determine the issue was when you called them?
3. Here are some guides for you to try, these 2 guides relate to the questions I had asked in the first question:
Unable to Connect to a Wireless Network When Using WEP Encryption and Shared Key Authentication
The Printer Is Not Found During a Wireless Network Installation
4. What Operating System are you running on your computer?
5. Where are you running the installation from (disk, download or HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows for Windows)?
Please let me know all of the information and results from your troubleshooting above!

Logitech Pro 4000 not working with new Imac 24"

Just migrated from a G4 to the new Imac 24"
Cannot get the Logitech Pro 4000 to work with new mac.
Contacted Logitech and they said
"please note that the QuickCam Pro 4000 currently only supports up to Mac OS X 10.2.6"
However,the cam DID work ,even under 10.4.8 with the old G4...
Any ideas people..
Thanks!

Your nwe iMac is Intel based, which is why the old driver failed/ You could try the driver from IOXperts. They do not mention Intel support, but they do list your camera, and have a free trial.

Isub not working with new imac

the help menu is telling me to make sure that the isub is plugged in, and then to make certain it is selected under sound preferences... the only problem is that the imac is not picking up that the usb is even plugged in- there is no isub option that comes up on the sound preferences.
the isub works fine on my older mac, but just is not being read on the new one. any guesses other than my old isub is obsolete with my new imac?
thanks
-pd

The iSub is sweet! It's the best sub I've ever had! There's no reason for it to NOT work with the new Macs. It's a bummer. I still have my iSub, maybe they'll start supporting it again someday.

Xml code not working with new version

Hi,
my following code is not working with the xalan 2.7.0 version. Any one can help to convert this to work on new version.
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import org.xml.sax.*;
import org.apache.xalan.xslt.*;
public class XML2Edifact
public static void main(String args[])
throws SAXException, IOException
if(args.length < 3)
throw new IllegalArgumentException(
"Usage is XML2Edifact in.xml xsl.xsl out.edi");
InputStream sin = new FileInputStream(args[0]),
sxsl = new FileInputStream(args[1]);
OutputStream sout = new FileOutputStream(args[2]);
EdifactFormatter formatter = new EdifactFormatter(sout);
XSLTProcessor processor =
XSLTProcessorFactory.getProcessor();
XSLTInputSource in = new XSLTInputSource(sin),
xsl = new XSLTInputSource(sxsl);
XSLTResultTarget out = new XSLTResultTarget(formatter);
processor.process(in,xsl,out);
}

Solved, had to repair the Z10 with the PC! Would have thought that upgrading software would have saved the environment so that this step was not needed (played with this for several weeks on-and-off).
