Lynksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router - Help needed to share internet connection from PC to home network

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me out with a problem I have:
I am currently connecting my PC to a mobile phone as a Wireless Access Point to give that PC access the internet. I also have a small home network, with one other PC and a Game Console. I own a Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router. My problem is this. How do I share that internet connection with the rest of the home network?
To the best of my knowledge its not possible to connect my mobile phone directly to my Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router, although if anyone has any ideas how to do this I'd love to hear!
So my alternative idea is to connect to the internet via one PC, set up that internet connection as "Shared." and then allow the other devices on the home network to connect thru this. My question is how do I set up my Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router to allow my other PC and game console connect to the internet? Bridge Mode? PPPoE? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! PS: both PC's are running on Windows 8

I have Cisco Linksys E900 router. I want to make my home Wi-Fi zone. But I don’t have Static IP. One more thing is that Service provider have web page Authentication. I have username and pass.
I am able to make SSID and security for my WI-FI LAN. I can use internet on one device. If I tried from second device again it’s asking me for username and password. While login it’s showing your first session in not logout. (Means I have to logout from 1st device and have to login on 2nd device.)
Is there any option that I can Use my all devices at same time?

Help needed to setup my Printer to work on home network...Please!!!

I recently purchased my first Mac, a G5 PowerPC. I have connected it to my home network (3 windows PC's and my G5) by way of a LAN router and everything works fine except getting my printer to function correctly.
I have an Epson DX4850 which works fine when connected directly to my G5 via USB but I cannot get it to work properly when connected to one of the Windows's PC's, its prefered location.
I have done the following;
Opened the Printer Setup Utility and clicked "Add"
In the Printer Browser I selected "More Printers"
In the 2 drop down menu's I selected "Windows Printing" and "Network Neighborhood"
Then selected the name of my home network, then the name of the computer the printer is connected to then the actual printer.
The problem seems to be that the Printer Model is listed as "Generic". When I try direct it toward my specific printer all I can find are GIMP drivers under Epson. If I select "Other" in order to navigate to my specific printer driver I seem to have trouble locating it.
Any help would be appreciated

I recently purchased my first Mac, a G5 PowerPC. I
have connected it to my home network (3 windows PC's
and my G5) by way of a LAN router and everything
works fine except getting my printer to function
correctly.
I suspect that I know why. Several printer vendors, including Epson & HP, have for reasons which make sense to them elected to NOT properly support the CUPS print system which OS X uses and has used since 10.2. Those who support CUPS properly deliver drivers which will work with any connection, including being shared across a network. Those who don't, well...
In the particular case of Epson, they're trying to push this thing: <http://www.buyepson.co.uk/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?PID=C12C824025>.
Actually, it does make more sense to use a device which puts the printer directly on the network than to share it from a computer. However, it seems... unlikely that anyone with sense will actually buy a 160GBP thingie to attach to a 100GBP MFD... Buying a second MFD would appear to make more sense.

There should be a specific GIMP driver for it. I think. I'm not sure, as the DX4850 isn't sold in the US, and many/most of the GIMP drivers for Epsons are written in the US. Which means that there may not be a driver specifically for that device, because the guys who'd write the driver for it haven't been able to get their hands on a machine to work with. If you can find out which print engine is at the heart of the MFD (the Stylus C86 or C88 engine is a possibility, but I don't know, I've never actually touched a DX4850) you can use the driver for that printer and it'll work just fine. At least, my old CX5400 used to work using the C84 GIMP driver.
When I try direct it toward my
specific printer all I can find are GIMP drivers
under Epson.
This is because Epson's own drivers don't do sharing. This is a Feature, according to Epson. That way it doesn't interfere with their external, expensive, USB-to-ethernet print thingie. The GIMP drivers do do sharing.
If I select "Other" in order to
navigate to my specific printer driver I seem to have
trouble locating it.
There isn't one from Epson. (Unless you have 160 pounds you're not doing anything with...) There may be a GIMP driver which will work.
Any help would be appreciated

IPhone 5s can connect to wireless WIFI router but can not access internet.

iPhone 5s can connect to wireless WIFI router but can not access internet at work. The admin says the router lets my iPhone connect to LAN, but the iPhone does not have server IP to access the internet. I entered the server IP and port number in the HTTP PROXY fields but I still can not access the web. Any ideas?
TIA
Rich

You IT person should be able to sort this out. But, they seems to be too busy or disinterested to do this. Suggest you provide the it person with an iPhone to get interested.
Any could be lots of things.
The best you can do is to get access to the admin setup for networking on a pc? The internet settings are all the same. Only what names the manufactures change from OS to OS. Check and compare parameters.
Phone works to internet at home, I assume?

It appears since my Windows PC McAfee AV subscription expired my PC's iTunes doesn't see my two Apple TV2's. My computer has internet connection thru router and my ATV has internet connection thru same router. My iPad can see the ATV but it can't see iT

My Windows PC iTunes doesn't see my two Apple TV2's (in the speaker button in lower right of iTunes), I believe this problem began when my PC's McAfee AV subscription expired. My computer has internet connection thru router and my ATVs have internet connection thru same router so it's not a networking issue. My iPad can see the ATVs but it can't see iTunes so the problem appears to be PC/iTunes related. I turned the PC's firewall off but no joy. I uninstalled the expired McAfee and still no joy. Reboot = no joy. Glass of scotch = no joy. Need help!!

Wanted to add that I turned on Home Sharing w/the same account in iTunes and ATVs. And I've successfully streamed music/photos to my ATVs for over a year.

Apple Help engine erroneously reports internet connection missing

I was using the help for TextWrangler, which is implemented in the Apple Help system. Sometimes, inconsistently, it fails to bring up a help page, and reports
Internet connection required
The help topic you’re opening requires an Internet connection. Choose Apple > System Preferences, and then click Network to check your network settings and, if necessary, connect to the Internet.
Of course my internet connection is just fine. I did a google search on that error message and found a suggestion that other people are experiencing this same error in Help in other applications and that Apple has been notified of the problem, so I thought I'd check here if anyone knows anything about this.
Thanks!

Turn on 64-BIT WEP encryption on your router. Pick a 10 digit password for key 1. Turn on Wireless with SSID broadcast on. Pick a name for your network other than "LINKSYS"
On the Mac turn on wireless (icon next to the speaker, upper right)
Select the network you just made. Type in the key.
and you're on

HT1657 Do i need to have internet connection to watch a rented movie

If I download a rental movie from iTunes do I need to have Internet connection to be able to watch the movie? I frequently travel on Northlink ferries and would like to be able to watch a movie but they internet/3G disappears soon after the ferry has left port?

iTunes Store Movie Rental FAQ - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657
After downloading a rented movie, do I need Internet connection to watch it? - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17114214 - No, you don't need a connection.
Do you have to have an internet connection to watch a rented movie from itunes? - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17934850 - Yes, you do need a connection.
Internet connection for rented movies? - https://discussions.apple.com/message/13361498 - No, you do not need a connection.
Can you watch a rented movie without internet connection? - https://discussions.apple.com/message/12857284
Nobody has come up with a definitive answer. It seems you have to start watching a rented movie with an Internet connection so it can start the 24 hour timer, but after that you can continue to watch it.

Setting up HP L-7590 via usb to wireless router, help needed..!

Hi,
I have been using my L7590 via lan to a wireless router for a few years... that was perfrect...
Recently I had to change router because of change of ISP. The new router is a Huawei B683... the problem I have is that this router does not allow LAN connections from the router ...!! It does has a USB port that is for the printer...
I am unsure as to how I setup the printer connected via usb to the router....
Do I use the network installation setup...? Or do I use the USB setup...??
Any help is greatly appreciated...
Thanks

Hi,
Connecting the printer to a router's USB port (aka. print server) will only allow you basic print functionality , it won't provide you any scan functionality, faxing from the computer, ink levels or any operation of the HP Solution Center program.
To get full functionality you must work with the provided functionality which means USB connection directly to a single PC or Ethernet connection to a router.. therefore using an Ethernet router will be the preferred solution for you.
In order to setup the printer as you described you should connect the printer to the USB port and go to Control Panel > System. click add a printer and add it through the network.. there might be a need to enter your wireless homepage to enable the printer through the USB, there might be additional setup information in there.. that veries between different print servers and you may contact Huawei support or your ISP for any assistant within the print server configuration.

Westell 7500 Wireless modem/router help please.

Hi, newbie here
I recently purchased a laptop for the first time in my life and I am trying to connect it to a wireless connection, which I have never done as well. I am using a Westell 7500 modem provided to me by Verizon. I did a bit of researched and apparently (if I'm correct) I don't need a wireless router or any other devices to get wireless internet.
If I am correct, I went to my modem's IP address and turned on wireless. I set up and changed the SSID and enabled a pass phrase, and I connected to the network at the bottom right. It connects, but there is no internet connection. What I mean by this is that it connects to the device successfully, but there is a triangular yellow warning sign with an exclamation mark on my internet bar at the bottom right and in my "Network and Sharing center" it says "no internet access."
Am I doing something wrong or do I need to buy an wireless router? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

You do not need to buy a wireless router. the 7500 will do the job! I assume you have windows 7. OPen network and sharing center, manage wirleless networks, do you have any entries for your Verizon ISP? If yes delete the entry and go to step 2.
If no go to desktop and press f1 to bring up help - search for (Setp 2) "set up wirless network" and let us know if that works for you. Welcome to the forum

Port/Connection Routing through Share Internet Connection...need help

Alright here's the situation: I have a Linux server that I bought for cheap from a friend and its upstairs in my bedroom. The router and dsl is downstairs and the server has to stay up in the bedroom. I don't have the cabling to run all the way up and thats tacky anyway. And linux doesnt have wireless support for my wireless card. Sooo I've turned on connection sharing with my new iMac that is in the bedroom as well and internet is coming through airport, while the connection shared with the server is wired. In airport, out eth0 to server.
Ok, so what I'm wanting to do is experiment with multiple types of servers on linux (i.e. Samba, FTP, Mail, etc) but I need to figure out a quick fix on routing or forwarding those connections routes and ports through the mac to the linux box. The linux box has no problem reaching the internet and has its own static ip but is also showing up on network 192.168.0 when the rest of my network is 192.168.1
Any third party free programs for adding advanced routing or easier setup and more features to the OSX internet sharing? Or maybe a tweak ya'll know of?

Hi Aaron,
flying buttress is a GUI for the UNIX firewall built into OSX. It has more functionality than the GUI in the sharing preferences.
By sharing network connection from another mac it will be on a differnent subnet to the rest of your LAN. The mac that is setup as the gateway is effectively acting as a gateway like your router is. So therefore your linux box is behind 2 NAT devices. You would need to setup up 2 sets of NAT rules.
This is quite an advanced setup for someone just experimenting.
I don't have the cabling to run all the way up and thats tacky anyway. And linux doesnt have wireless support for my wireless card.
Cable does not have to look tacky. It can be installed neatly if use use conduit or tack it to the skirting board. Also given that wireless cars cost about £20 you could easily get your linux box connected to your router.

Help Needed i can't connect to the router via VPN

I can not connect to my server via the VPN client i have attached the config. I also havve a bif problem i can't use the webb gui any more and idon't know why.
Thanks i advance

You would need to change the NAT from standard ACL to extended ACL as follows:
access-list 150 deny ip 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 150 permit ip 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 any
ip nat inside source list 150 interface ATM0.1 overload
no ip nat inside source list 1 interface ATM0.1 overload

Just got a new IPOD Touch and it wont connect to our Wifi home network with a Belken N Router. Our router uses WEP 64 bit security, but had a "blank" password field, which the IPOD did not like. Changing to a 6 char numeric PW didnt help either.

OS is whatever OS ships with current IPOD Touch
I cannot understand why the APPLE engineers have designed this product so that it has SO MANY WIFI problems. This is supposed to be an easy-to-use product. We've had no problems connecting our new laptop, our ROKU box, etc, but it seems impossible to get the IPOD touch to work. NOTHING LIKE SPENDING XMAS MORNING DOING APPLE TECH SUPPORT TROUBLESHOOTING TO LEAVE YOU IN THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT!!! Argh!
In fact, the only way we have been able to get this expensive brand new IPOD to work on our home network is to DISABLE SECURITY in the router settings. THIS IS ANYTHING BUT A GOOD IDEA.
DON"T KNOW WHY BUT MANY OTHER USERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME KIND OF PROBLEM SO APPLE ENGINEERING NEEDS TO GET BUSY AND FIX THIS PROBLEM SO THAT NEW USERS CAN CONNECT TO THE INTERNET WITHOUT HAVING TO BE TRAINED ROUTER ENGINEERS TO DO IT!!!!
Ok, sorry for the rant, but surely those of you who are experiencing this share my frustration. This is not why I bought an APPLE product.
IS THERE ANY POSSIBILITY THAT APPLE WILL NOT ALLOW A WIFI PASSWORD with more than one identical alphanumeric character? Any ideas? We also tried eliminating the 40 MHZ setting under Bandwidth settings in the router settings for our router, but it made no difference. The router has the latest firmware, too. Running out of ideas, and am ready to box this unit up and send it back!

Thanks, Bob! You are correct. And, we learned this as we spoke with APPLE TECH SUPPORT by phone on Christmas day (800-APL-CARE). One of their reps spent the time to help us troubleshoot this, but the boiled down conclusion is your answer, and to repeat for the benefit of others, here is what worked:
1. With our Belkin router set to "out-of-the-box" WEP 64 bit security, we could not get wireless access of any kind. Only with the Security Mode set to DISABLED, could we gain access.
2. Changing the router's security mode setting to "WPA/WPA-2...." and entering a new min. 8 char passphrase, and then entering that same passphrase into the IPOD Touch, and restarting the router, did the trick!
Based on this, and some info found in another posting, I can only conclude that the IPODs and IPHONES do not support WEP security mode in many generic routers used by thousands of consumers. Hopefully, those same consumers can figure out how to change their wireless router setttings to WPA/WPA-2 security mode and ALSO get all their other wireless devices (PCs, laptops, WII boxes, ROKU boxes) all reconfigured to WPA mode, too.
I THINK THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT APPLE NEEDS TO ADDRESS WITH WEP COMPATIBILITY and it may also be the case that MOST CONSUMERS ARE USING WEP 64 BIT security on their home wireless routers?
In any case, it's working now, so anyone who is having problems should try changing to WPA mode and post back here if it worked for them!

Help needed on upgrading portal application from sp3 to weblogic portal 10

Hi Guys
I have an application which is currently running on BEA Weblogic Portal 8.1 sp3. We need to upgrade our application from 8.1 sp3 to BEA Weblogic 10 version.
(1) Is there any way for upgradation from 8.1 sp3 to portal 10 directly or do I need to upgrade it from sp3 to sp4 and then from sp4 to portal 10? Pls clarify?
(2) How reliable are the BEAs automated scripts for retaining the personalization/customization of my application on sp3 to upgraded version i.e portal 10?
(3) I believe, we do not need to do any coding/design changes/architectural changes into my application for this upgrade.
Any help on this will be highly appreciated
Thanks
Jameel

1) I believe only sp4 and later to weblogic 10 is supported (http://www.bea.com/content/news_events/white_papers/BEA_WL_Portal10_ds.pdf)
so yes i think you need to upgrade from sp3 to a later version of the service pack
2) You tell us :)
3) Depends on your application and the features you have used. E.g. I believe Content management has changed between sp3 and what 10 supports.

Help needed to access internet while roaming

Hi, I m new to this community and do not know properly how to get support. I have I pad mini with retina display, WiFi & Cellular, 32 GB, OS: iOS 7.1.2. To use internet I have taken Vodafone SIM (UP, West, India) which is a handmade nano SIM. I am able to use internet facility when present in home circle. However, when I visit to other states I can not access internet (even after the setting change as a roaming). Whenever I open the browser, message comes on screen "Could not activate cellular data network" or "You are not subscribed to a cellular network service". In this connection I contacted ISP (Vodafone), but they say there is no problem with ISP and suggest me to contact Apple. I made contact with apple too. They made all the heat and trial with the setting but the result was the same. Finally they say this problem could be because of hand cut nano SIM and suggested me to get factory cut nano SIM. I am still having hand cut SIM. I request all of you to help me in this regard so that I could use internet while traveling.
Thank you
Arun Verma

Get a factory cut nano sim as Vodaphone suggested. The handout sim seems
to have a problem. Is there some reason you don't want to follow the suggestion
you have been given?

IPad 1only connects to wifi in room router is in. Used to connect from all over house. Any help on this greatly appreciated. Thanks

How can I get my iPad to connect to wifi in rooms other than the room router is in? It used to connect from every room & now connection is either intermittent or completely gone.
Thanks.
Most up to date operating system & software. Not a problem with Internet provider- already investigated that.

Try this:
1. Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears
2.Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings
