Know a good network management app?

Know a good network management app? We have a Time Capsule/router with multiple devices (MacBook Air, iPhones, iPads) plus other PCs when we have people visiting. Is there any way I can see what websites were visited through my WIFI and how much bandwith was consumed?
Ideally - I'd be able to monitor this on one screen - ie iPhone XYZ downloaded 200MB from YouTube, HP laptop downloaded 1.3GB on Skype, etc.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

No, the things you are asking are well beyond a time capsule.. which is a simple basic router.
Get a WNDR3800 netgear and load gargoyle firmware on it.
You need to recognise what you are asking of a domestic router is not available in any out of the box solution. gargoyle is extremely easy to load and works very well.
Plus it allows you to set quotas..

Looking for a good Password Manager App for the iPhone

I'm looking for a good and reliable Password Manager App for the iPhone with sync capabilities on macs. I've read several reviews on several different apps on iTunes, and either they don't work properly, or they're a rip off, or they just don't sync or all of the above. Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

I've been very happy with 1Password, though I haven't used the iPhone component (not having an iPhone).

A good project management app?

I'm working on a large project (a book) and am looking for something to keep my deadlines together and to break my work into manageable chunks. I know there are a lot of good programs like OmniPlan, but I just need to plan out my own project—I'm not coordinating a team or working with other people—so a program like OmniPlan is way more than I need. Does anyone know of any good personal project management software?
iMac 24" Mac OS X (10.4.8)

If you happen to use Microsoft Office 2004, the Project Manager in Entourage is actually quite good. I started using it a few weeks ago.
There are a bunch of open source web based project managers that you could setup pretty easily on your system as well. That with the use of MAMP, you could easily setup something up for free in no time.
I did run across this this which was directed towards writers, when i was looking for some sort of project manager a few weeks ago.

Network Management App

I would like some recommendations on an app which would keep track on my data usage, and also manage my network settings.
I have a data plan which allows me 3 GB of data each month, and any further usage is charged at a very high rate. This 3 GB limit is just about sufficient for me, but I managed to exceed this limit a couple of times, which showed a huge impact on my bills. So I'm worried about downloading data after using up the limit of 3 GB. So I'm looking for an app that would switch off my network settings or at least warn me to switch it off, after I reach the 3 GB data usage. I don't want to rely on the Usage data in settings, because for that I have to manually keep checking my data usage.
Any app which would be fit for me?

You might want to try
Data Usage

Anyone know a good time signal app?

I am looking for an app that can make a noise at a specific time - just a tone, not an alarm that has to be turned off.
For example, at 3 PM during the week, I would like my phone to make doorbell sound. Is there anything that does that?
Thanks.

Step 1. Load custom ringtone (if builtin doesn't have a doorbell)
Step 2a. Set & schedule alarm for said time with desired ringtone
If alarm is not what you seek continue to step 2b.
Step 2b. Set and schedule Calendar event at said time with alert at time of event with desired ringtone.
Step 3. Wait in anticipation for the event/alarm to go off.
Step 4. Ding!

Network Manager doesnt detect tty/ACM0 for Broadband Network

Hi all,
I have just installed Arch Linux and slowly getting acquainted to it. I have a mobile broadband connection via GPRS. Previously I was using Zenwalk OS and the Network Manager used to detect my device as soon as it was connected (provided the kernel module cdc_acm was enabled and 'dialout' group was added for that user).
I tried the same in Arch linux, but the Network manager though has options for connecting to Mobile Broadband, doesn't detect my device.
Somehow, I am using the Mobile broadband by using wvdial (had to do trial and error to fix it), but I am interested to know, why the Network Manager failed and hence think about fixing the issue.
Can anyone please guide me regarding this issue and help me out to sort the problem ?
Thanks in advance
With regards,
Ajay Kumar G

Welcome to the Arch forums!
Your post does a good job providing a very basic idea of what is going on, but unfortunately not much more than that. More information is required in order to properly diagnose this issue. You should check if there are error messages in the journal, or any other indications as to why things might be failing. Your computer typically makes an attempt at telling you what is going wrong.
From what you have posted though, it kind of sounds like you are trying to use two network management services at the same time. If you use wifi-menu, you are essentially using the ncurses front end to netctl. Netctl is basically just a collection of scripts that wrap the most basic networking tools. If this is in use, then networkmanager is bound to fail as you then have two services competing (and likely failing) to control that hardware.
Check to see if you have more than one service trying to handle things. You can run systemctl with no arguments to see everything that systemd wants to start. Though if you use systemctl --type=service then you can have it tell you only about services (as opposed to all unit types, like mount, automount, device, socket files and more).

That, at least, should fix your initial issue. I have only just begun to learn more about dbus, so I have no clue about the second problem.
Mmmmm no entries as <policy at_console="true"> in my NetworkManager.conf....

Wireless network management solution

We are running a pilot project to deploy a centralize wireless solution for our campus. The pilot consists of only about 20 Cisco1200 access points. We are in need of Network Management solution to manage these access points. The NMS would have to pretty much behave like what we already have into place for our wired networks such as: alerts on snmp traps, thresholds settings, data capture, administration,etc, in general be able to proactively check possible shortcomings on the infrastructure and help to troubleshoot problems. Once we fully deploy the centrally controlled wireless network, there could be any way from 1200 to 1500 access points, so whichever system we choose must be able to scale to these numbers.
Im interested in knowing which wireless network management solutions are the preferred one from the audience on this forum. Your input will help me to narrow down possible options.
Thanks a lot for any information.

I would suggest that you go for the WLSE. CiscoWorks WLSE is a centralized, systems-level application for managing and controlling an entire Cisco Aironet WLAN infrastructure. For more information on this read

I am on the edge. I've been working on this wireless to get work for 1 week. And i am getting frustrated. I have Ralink with rt2500 chipset. For now i am trying the netcfg2. Though the result is same in network-manager.I can connect to wireless network but after 30 seconds i cannot browse any site.It is still seen as connected though.
My rc.conf:

INTERFACES=(lo eth0 wlan0)
# Routes to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each route then list in ROUTES
# - prefix an entry in ROUTES with a ! to disable it

# Enable these network profiles at boot-up. These are only useful
# if you happen to need multiple network configurations (ie, laptop users)

# Network profiles are found in /etc/network-profiles
#NET_PROFILES=()

It all really depends upon what you want. Since you are asking for free games, just download them and try. It does not cost anything.

Mock RFP for SUN network management tool, desperate 4 help, just need specs

OK, I have a project that in essence is a mock Request for Proposal (RFP), I play as an intern, & our instructor roleplays the manager we need to convince. The different network management tools that were available were for example; HP Openview, Cisco Works, Sniffer....& I of course chose SunNet. We need to gather information on the tool, then turn around & design a relatively simple network from the specs that were given, & finally discuss how the management tool's abilities could benefit the (mock) company...power point presentation & all.
Here it is from the homework sheet given to us...."These products will need to be useful in a 5000 node network that has four main locations that are primarily Ethernet. There is a legacy 100 nodes of Token Ring attached to a mainframe. Cisco or Foundry routers connect the Four main locations, with swiches employed. Other connections to these sites are done via DSL or ISDN. Additional considerations are wireless communications, VOIP & Content delivery systems.
I know this is a lot & I'm not asking for someone to do all this for me, just simply provide any information you know about Enterprise management tools 2.0 or 3.0,or anything you may feel better suits my needs, as the links I have surfed about them give little to nothing about specifics that I need to make any argument. If you have any links send them...if you have anyting in hard copy I will pay for postage... I need to get this done & have little time as I go to school & work full time at Motorola (but only as a contractor), so I'm starting to choke & need help....any u can give is so very appreciated....& sorry to make this request a publishable novel here on the board, but thats what it is. Thanks again......Mark

A good solution. Liked it very much. Can you please make it a technet blog for others.

[SOLVED] Network Manager with iPhone 3G S

OK, so work got me a shiny new iPhone 3G S today. When I'm being paid to play with it, I'll give it a shot
Anyway, I've successfully paired the iPhone over bluetooth with Arch on my laptop, which creates the bnep0 network interface. If I run dhcpcd on this interface, the iPhone gives me a DHCP lease in the 192.168.20.x subnet, and after configuring the opendns nameservers, I'm successfully tethered to the iPhone with full network connectivity
Is there a way I can get Network Manager to do the 'dhcp' and 'nameserver' parts for me? In the nm-applet GUI, there's no option for specifying interfaces or anything just "wired" (eth0) and "wireless" (wlan0) as well as the VPN, 3G etc tabs.
Also (I know someone wants to mention this), I am already aware that bluetooth is going to be speed limiting, but this connection will generally only be used for SSH sessions back to the office, so I don't really care about that. I'm happy to use bluetooth to reduce the number of cables required - already have external mouse, external hard drive, power supply and serial cable when I'm at a client site, I don't really want a USB cable to the iPhone as well. Unless Network Manager can't do this over bluetooth, but it can over USB, then I'll concede on the extra cable.

Here's instructions for Ubuntu, I doubt there will be many discrepancies between Ubuntu and Arch though. Just translate the apt-get crap with the appropriate yaourt or pacman command.
http://undulynoted.net/2009/06/tether-i … -required/
Ubuntu:
Why oh why does apple hardware suck so hard with linux. You will get constant disconnects if your phone is more than a few feet away from the computer. But alas, it is still faster than pdanet or iphonemodem2.
If you are not on a mac congratulations, you have had fewer headaches.
Open the terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install blueman bluez-compat
This will remove wcid which hopefully isn't a problem for most of you.
It will ask you to restart, please do.
Once Ubuntu is back up click on your bluetooth icon in the upper right (which is now managed by blueman)
IMPORTANT: Right click on the bluetooth icon and choose local services. Make sure to click the radio box that says "Network manager" instead of "blueman" under the network pane. This will allow Network Manager to take over the controlling of your connection (which is good). REBOOT AFTER THIS STEP!
Go to the bluetooth settings in your iphone (Settings > General > Bluetooth) and make sure they are on.
Hit the search button in blueman and you should see your iphone after a few seconds.
WARNING: This is where it gets flaky on the macbook pro. Best results I have has is to highlight the phone in blueman and hit "Bond"
Choose to auto generate a pass on the next option. Next. Now wait for the iPhone to ask you to type in the passphrase. Type in the 4 digit one that blueman gives you. VERY IMPORTANT. While they are joining eachother keep you eye on the computer. It will ask you if you always want to trust the iPhone (device name). Hit Always or else you will have trouble.
Always initiate the connection from the iPhone. In the bluetooth settings on the iphone you will now see your computer name listed and the words "not conencted" next to it. Click it. Wait a few and it will hopefully say connected. Look back to blueman and you will now see status bars on the iphone. Right click on your iphone in blueman. Choose "Setup". Network access point is click by default so just hit "Next".
Now head over to Network Manager and you should see "Auto benp0″. Click it to connect and give it a few to generate an IP. DONE enjoy surfing the internet through your data plan without jailbreaking. I have noticed quite a few speed gains over pdanet. Also, i noticed I got better results when i used openDNS's servers (208.67.220.220 and 208.67.222.222).
If you have done everything correctly and Network Manager won't take over the connection of you can see it and it says "not managed" or something of the sort you need to check out the following:
Open terminal and type: sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
see if you have bnep0 located there. if you do, comment out or delete that line. and reboot your machine.
