Issue with Internet Sharing

Hey folks,
Just wondering if anyone has encountered something like this. I'm using my imac to share it's internet connection wirelessly with several clients (not a perfect scenario i know) and the clients hog the bandwidth. I was wondering if theres a way to limit the bandwidth that is shared. For example. Have the host using 75% of bandwidth and clients using 25% between them.
Any info would be greatly appericiated
Cheers
Nick

I know that apple have released a rubbish version of mac that has problemos with internet sharing
so here is da answer
1. go to finder>(computer name)>macintosh HD>library>preferences
2. copy the entire systemconfiguration folder and systemconfiguration.old folder to your desktop
3. restart mac and device which you share intenet to
then you have internet that is about 3x slower than the da 10.7.3 intenet sharing, but works
then, just wait for apple to release da 10.7.4 fixed
please use da steps!

Using Airport Express with Internet Sharing in Leopard

Howdy all,
I have Internet Sharing enabled on my MacBook Pro running Leopard 10.5.4. I use a Sprint Sierra Wireless Aircard 597E modem to connect to the Internet.
I'm trying to get my Airport Express & Time Machine to recognize my MacBook Pro, or the other way around. Basically, I want to be able to access the Airport Express to wirelessly play music through a pair of speakers and be able to access the Time Machine for backups & accessing files.
With Internet Sharing enabled, my iPhone can access the web, so I believe I have the sharing set up correctly. However, I can't see the Time Machine and my Airport Express just keeps blinking amber.
Does anyone know what I might need to do to resolve this issue?
Any help is so very very much appreciated!

Thanks Kappy,
I'm not sure you're exactly following me on this one, though. Here's what I've discovered on my own for anyone else facing the same situation I am:
1. You /cannot/ use Airport Express while using Leopard's Internet Sharing.
2. If you want to create a local network, in this situation, you'll need to use Time Capsule to establish the initial local network, then join the Airport Express into that network. At that point you can use Time Machine with Time Capsule, access it as a hard drive and use AirTunes with the Airport Express.
But you cannot use the Sprint AirCard (and I assume any other similar setup) and your Mac with Internet Sharing to build the local network and then join the other devices to it. Unfortunately.

Since the Mountain Lion OS update today I've had issues with internet connection and e-mail, has anyone else?

Since the Mountain Lion OS update today I've had issues with internet connection and e-mail, has anyone else?

That's what I would have thought, but even after saving the setting, as soon as I shut down my computer or log out of Mail, it automatically defaults back to 25. It's a bit frustrating.
Now I just need to figure out how to get rid of those horrible pop-up banners but still have my glass sound and number of emails in the red dot when I get an email...
These little tweaks are the only thing I HATE about upgrading my OS.

Split DNS with internet sharing

Hi
I'm running a Mac mini as a server, with Internet sharing on its wifi. Since NAT'd addresses connecting to the machine's outside interface performs rather poorly, I was wanting to run some form of split dns for local domains - so connecting to, say, smtp and imap would hit 10.0.2.1 instead of the external IP.
As it turns out, I'm already running two copies of named - one to serve the domains on the system (out of /usr/local), and the other one running Internet sharing through the /etc/com.apple.named.conf.proxy config file. Since my changes wouldn't "stick" in that file, running a separate copy seemed to make sense for me. But now I want to change the behavior of the named used for Internet sharing to give out different results. Has anybody figured out a way to do this that is sane (won't break on reboot/OS upgrade/etc)?

Anybody?

AppleTV don't show in iTunes with internet sharing on

Dear all,
I have a problem with my new appletv. I'm sharing internet connection via ethernet on my iMac directly connected to a linksys access point. tv have a wireless connection to the linksys and the ethernet ip address of my iMac as a gateway. With internet sharing on my iTunes don't show tv and don't synchronize with it.
My current setup is iTunes 8.1 and tv 2.3.1 firmware. With previous firmware release all is ok.
Any suggestion? Is it possible to use internet sharing and iTunes sync at the same time?

Songs will only show up if they are in the library. Did you copy the music from your old iTunes library and load it on the new computer?

AirPort Express wireless connection, when I surf the news sites so I linked to **** pages. And must close the window. If I use my iPhone with Internet sharing the same computer, then I have no problem.
I believe that it is in AirPort Express, and would have to clean it. How do you do that?

You need to use the Express in router mode.. I think you are trying to use it in bridge mode.. but you need to give us a lot more details.. screenshots might help more than anything.

Firewall interfering with Internet Sharing?

Hello -- I have an iMac (let's call it "iMac 1") physically connected to a cable modem, and, using Internet Sharing on that machine, I can connect to it via AirPort with another iMac ("iMac 2") and access the internet without any problems. However, when I activate the firewall on iMac 1, I can no longer access the internet with iMac 2. I know it's a good idea to use the firewall. What should I be doing differently in order to make this work?
Thanks,
Dieter

You may want to ask this question in the Tiger forums (Getting Online and Networking). I had a look there just now, and there is a bit of discussion about Internet sharing and firewall use. I did not find anything directly on point, but then again I did not look through each discussion on the issue. Some of the posts seemed to suggest that perhaps you could not have the firewall enable on you iMac 1, or that to do so, you need to open certain ports to share the connection with iMac 2. Sorry I cannot be of more assistance.

New iMac won't sleep with internet sharing on

Less than 3 month old iMac (core i5) has stoppped being able to sleep when Internet Sharing is enabled. It took me a good while to narrow it down to that but I've confirmed that when Internet sharing is off, it will sleep as it's supposed to. When sharing is on though, not only will it not automatically sleep per the energy saver setting, it wo'nt even sleep when forced with the Apple command. The display will turn off, but the machine does not sleep. I can tell by the facts that my wifi access on my iPhone continues to run off the iMac, and the Caps lock on the keyboard remains lit. (Too bad the blinking LED is no more on the new iMacs).
Sleep was working fine when I first got the new machine; it seems to have stopped shortly after I upgraded to Lion. (I think it may have been working for a few days after installing Lion, but I'm not positive...I'm thinking now I just thought it was asleep because the display would turn off.)
I've looked at all the related sleep posts I could find but nothing seems to address this particular issue. I know I could just turn off sharing whenver I want it to sleep, but tha't's like having to disconnect my car battery when I want to shut the car off.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jamie

Well, I'm certainly no expert at this and I'd never enable internet sharing (being too concerned about the health of my Mac and/or not knowing what untoward sites/networks/people may be seeking access), but it seems to me that having it turned on means that your computer is sharing a connection, so anytime anyone on the network seeks access, it will either wake up the Mac or cause it to stay awake. Here is an excerpt from the Help Menu (in Finder) (which has nothing to do with your question, but I found it interesting nonetheless):
If your Internet connection and your local network use the same port (Ethernet, for example), investigate possible side effects before you turn on Internet sharing. In some cases (if you use a cable modem, for example) you might unintentionally affect the network settings of other ISP customers, and your ISP might terminate your service to prevent you from disrupting its network.

Issue with Internet facing site and Intranet sites

Hello All,
I have migrated the SP2013 environment using database attach method for our intranet site. We also working on the
SP2013 Internet facing site using the same content database as Internet site.
When I extended the web application for Internet facing site, zone to
Internet and these are the URLs: The Intranet website URL is
https://intranet.contoso.com/SitePages/home.aspx (Root Site) and
SP2013 Internet facing site http://contoso.com (not a root site and publishing site template)
However, I found on the http://contoso.com users can still access the
http://contoso.com/SitePages/home with same content as Intranet.
After done some Google search, bloggers mentioned to have move https://intranet.contoso.com/SitePages/home.aspx to another site collection so that Internet facing site can exist root site.
Can 2 we have to two root sites in same web application? I need the content database to be same so that managers can check
Internet facing site and after signing into SP2013, redirects to
Internet site.
Which is the best option to achieve this with same content database.
Please advice.
Regards,
Aroh

Business Requirement:
Content Managers want to control internal Internet site (https://intranet.contoso.com) (with default zone, port 443, Root site) and also want to have SP2013 Internet site (with Internet zone
http://www.contoso.com (not a root site and publishing site template)), Anonymous access at Web Application level. I configured the site architecture
to have intranet zone as default zone and extended Web Application for Internet facing site with Anonymous site. This the current site architecture
Because content managers do not want to duplicate public site (Internet facing site) with will be shared with some lists that are stored in intranet site.
For e.g. a sub site named “News and Events” will be shared with Public site as well as Internet users. Therefore, if a manger wants to update a list in the public site, it should reflect in intranet site as well. Thus, managers
don’t want to have separate database but same content database.
Problem:
I have extended web application to have different Internet zone, the site URL looks this: http://www.contoso.com/sites/public with publishing template and Anonymous access. Managers want to have public site URL to be just
http://www.contoso.com and not   http://www.contoso.com/SitePages/Home.aspx. As I am using path based site collection for extending site collection, I am
getting this URL http://www.contoso.com/SitePages/Home.aspx
We also tried host named site collection, but it does not provide anonymous access and keep on asking for user credentials.
Q1: We want to have Intranet and Public site with same content database as per business requirements, Shall I following link       http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/81172/moving-content-db-for-a-site-collection-to-another-db-server?
Q2: Because I am constrained that I don’t want to have separate web application, (I know, its not regular requirement), how could achieve this requirements?
Q3: Do have to completely re-design web site architecture, with
www.contoso.com as main web application, then copy Intranet site collection and move this to
www.contoso.com/intranet using
Move-SPSite command
Any kind of pointer and help will be highly appreciated as I am struggling for 2 weeks to solve this.

Weird graphics and other issues with internet explorer in all versions.

One of our laptops has an issue with their Internet Explorer. First, whenever the user logs on and starts internet explorer and navigates to any website, the website loads for a bit but then immediately displays a "Page cannot be displayed" error.
Every single time. If we try browsing again/refreshing the page it loads fine. But during regular browsing, we might get that page again.
Another issue that happens is sometimes the graphics logos won't load properly. See screenshot:
http://i.imgur.com/0usOPpu.jpg
And this happens a lot. If this won't happen, the websites will only load with half its formatting missing.
Now we have:
-Thoroughly checked computer for viruses. Several full scans have been done with MalwareBytes with no issues found. Microsoft Security Essentials has been installed, full scan done, no viruses/spyware/adware found.
-We have tried upgrading to IE11. Same issue. Downgraded to IE10. Same issue. Downgraded to IE9, same issue yet again. IE was Reset each time.
We checked if it could be a network issue, but none of the other computers connected to the same switch has issue like that.
Any suggestions/ideas to try?

Hi,
I suggest you temporary disable antivirus and firewall, then check the result.
You may try the steps from the links below to check the issue:
