Mech Warrior 4, 1 wired PC, 3 Wireless computers, and opening the ports to all?

Ok, recently MW4 became a free game to the world and I like so many others went and got it. I now have it on 4 computers in my house and we want to go play as a team. We currently play UT2k4 and I have only had to open the ports for it to the IP of my computer since I host the servers for Ventrilo and UT. I now have a person telling me I need to open the ports for MW4 to each IP in my house so that the others can play. What I need to know is if there is a way to open the ports to a range of IP's since everytime I try to open the same ports to different IP's it tells me that the range already exist (not helpful).
The ports in question are 2300-2400 ( I thought of range them by 25 for each IP) and then we have port 47624. Ideas? Should I just trigger the 47624 and set up the others by 25? I am at a loss on this one.

Note the MW4 lines. Eveidently since Mechwarrior 4 came out there have been issues with trying to run multiple PC's behind a firewall with this game. We need a workable solution to this soon. Eveidently I need to have ports 2300-2400 open to all the computers in my house for them to play online at the same time. I'm failing to understand why this is since we don't need to do this with UT2k4, but I'm no guru.I've tried to split the range up by 25's to all pcs with no luck, only .110 can still connect at eh range 2300-2325. I think the 47624 is only needed to host servers.
What I need is for .110 (wired to be able to both host and play), .111,.112,.113 to be able to play all at the same time! I know no easy task. I really wish that the router could support this type of setting (easier than fumbleing this out) and that there were more lines to make available ports. Maybe twice as many?
I hope you can help me with this, you'll be helping an entire community!
Thanks!

TS3048 I changed the battery in my wireless keyboard and checked the batteries to make sure that they work. When I returned to my computer (the computer was already on) the keyboard would not work, no response at all. What do I do?

I changed the battery in my wireless keyboard and checked the batteries to make sure that they are good, I left the computer on while I changed the batteries. When I returned to the computer, the computer does not acknowledge the keyboard so I can't do any diagnostics. What do I do?

Hold the power key on the keyboard down for 5 secs to power off, tap the power button once to start. It should connect automatically.

OK so I just made a wireless network and using the apple box or whatever. And I want to change the network name. How do I do that?

Just want to confirm that I am also having this issue, The connection is fine, and it is in fact charging (@ 100%)
Everything Rick has said is like an echo to what is happening to me.
I have tried re-installing iTunes, and restarting the Bonjour service, sadly there is no change.
earlier before i updated iTunes it recognised my iPod but said that I had to update iTunes in order for it to work.
So i updated iTunes but now it's not even showing the device anywhere.
In case this helps:
OS: Windows 8.1
iTunes version: 11.3.1.8
Device: 5th generation iPod touch 16GB with ios 7

Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

Yes, if the AirPort Extreme is joining a wireless network that has been created by another Apple router. In this case, it will be extending the wireless network and the Ethernet ports are enabled on the "remote" AirPort Extreme.
No, if the AirPort Extreme will be used with another router from another manfacturer.
Ironically, the less expensive AirPort Express can do what you ask about with virtually any wireless network using a special feature called ProxySTA. It won't extend the wireless with a non-Apple router, but the Ethernet port will be enabled.

I need an ethernet cable connection to a non-wireless device that isn't near my current airport express. Can I buy an extra one to plug in near the non wireless device to receive the wireless data and put the signal out in ethernet form?

Yes, you can.
This is a special feature of the AirPort Express 802.11n. You will have to set it up "manually" to "enable Ethernet clients".
If your "main" AirPort Express is an 802.11n version, it is also possible to setup the second Express to "extend a wireless network" to provide additional wireless coverage in addtion to enabling the Ethernet port.
If you need the steps, post back to let us know what operating system you are using on the Mac or PC that will be used for the setup of the new AirPort Express.

Not Connecting to Wired Network and Forcing the loss of all Connections on the Home Network

Just got a new G550 laptop w/Win 7 OS. Tried to connect to wired router and got message "network cable not connected". Recycled laptop and router and came up with router connected to the laptop. Same message after search and identify steps finished. I then noticed I lost connection to the net/router with my other home networked units as well! Tried another cable, same results along with losing the entire home network connection. Disconnected the G550 from home network, via the cable, and the home network reconnected without any intervention. Tried another reboot directly connected to the cable modem, no go there either!
I also rebooted with the wireless search shutoff and got the same problems as on the wired attempt. Thought it might have been the NIC card so I exchanged the system back at the store. Sorry, same problem!!

I have a very similar problem... New Lenovo G550, running Vista Home Premium 64-bit. Right from the start it causes my TrendNet TEW-432BRP router to crash every 10 seconds. I bought a new DLink WBR-1310 and experience the same problem. Connecting to either router through either a wireless connection or a LAN cable connection causes the router to crash every 10 seconds. The router crashes, reboots, establishes a connection with the laptop, communication starts and then the router crashes again.
I am looking for help.

Secured wireless network and open internet...

I own a camp ground and have people using my internet and I found out last week that could see in my laptops because I have a network and share files with all my computers. I am using a Wireless G router. Can I secure my network and leave the internet open to the people???? Thanks for your help....

Another possible solution to you problem is to replace your current router with a router that supports multiple wireless networks, like the WRV200.
The WRV200 allows you to setup 1 to 4 wireless networks. These networks exist on separate secure VLANs (virtual LANs). All of the networks can share the same Internet connection, but otherwise, their files are kept separated.
The router sounds expensive, but I found it at CDW for $80.

Unable to have wireless computers connect to the internet

After a lot of problems with Time Warner Cable, being denied the ability to forward my ports so that people could connect to me for multiplayer video games and having a monthly fee for using their modem/router being tacked on being the breaking point, I bought my own modem and router - a Motorola SB6121 and a Linksys E1200 Router.
After a lot of grief with TWC setting up the modem, I'm ready to set up the router. The problem is, once I did that, nothing got an internet connection. My desktop couldn't get internet access, and although they were able to connect to the router, neither could any wireless devices. I unhook the router and try it all again, and then only one wireless device gets wireless internet access while everything else suffers without internet. A third time and the desktop has access, but nothing gets wireless past local access. At this point, I can't even get into the router with the standard 192.168.1.1 login address to change anything and I'm at an impass.
Any help would be appreciated, because I'm getting exhausted by this.

If you have tried the setup disk that came with the router but failed to get the internet to work, install the router manually. You plug-in the computer to the router that was used to establish the internet access when plugged-in to your new modem. You open the router’s page: http://192.168.1.1 and click MAC Address Clone under the Setup tab. Enable and click the clone my PC’s MAC option from there and click Save Settings at the bottom of the page. You go to the Status tab after that and check if there is an Internet IP Address. You may need to power down the router and modem for 30 seconds as well. You may refer to this link I found from Cisco’s KB site: Setting up a Linksys router with Cable Internet service.

HT3819 I don't see my apple tv on my device list on my ITunes? I already reset the apple tv, connect it to my library, they are both connected already to the same wireless network and to the internet, home sharing is enable on my I Tunes and already tried

I Can't visualize my apple tv at my Itunes, I tried everything, both are on the same network, both are connected to the internet, my itunes is enable for home sharing and even tried to manually sync my Iyunes to my apple tv using the preferences option,,,,but still can't see the apple tv on my device list..

Hello maxpalmer9,
It sounds like you are not able to access your iTunes Library from your iPad or Apple TV using Home Sharing. I found an article with steps that I think would help with this issue.
I recommend reviewing the full article below, but I think steps 4-7 are specifically useful for what you described:

Connect your new phone to your computer using the USB cable and it should appear in iTunes. If it doesn't you will need to troubleshoot. Then see: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109

WRT54G lost connection to Internet from Wired computer, but wireless still connect

I have the router hard wired to a desktop computer and have 2 other computers connecting wirelessly through it. The hard wired computer suddenly could not connect to the internet, yet the 2 wireless computers still can. The computer was 5 yrs. old and I had bought a new one, so thought it was the best time to set it up. I have the same problem with the new computer. The only way I could get access to the internet on it was to run a line from the USB port on the DSL modem directly to the computer. I can still see the 2 other computers and their files through the router, just can't get the router to see the modem from the hard wired computer. The 2 wireless computers can access the modem through the router, but the wired one can't! According to Linksys the problem is with my ethernet/lan on the computer.(both computers?!) According to the repair/diagnose on my lan connection, it says there is a problem with the router or modem. Any suggestions?

I found the problem, the router is bad. I bought a new router and installed it, made no changes to the computer hardware, and the new router worked fine with the ethernet connection for the hard wired computer. I am really disappointed in the help that I received from linksys. They kept insisting there was nothing wrong with the router and that the 2 computers I tried to hard wire to the router both had bad ethernet ports. I will not be buying their products again.

How do I use the airport express to connect a remote PC via ethernet cable and access the internet via wireless connection, How do I use the airport express to connect a remote PC via ethernet cable and access the internet via wireless connection

Trying to connect my xbox to the airport express. Have wireless in home and do not have a ethernet point behind tv/xbox. How do I configure the airport express to connect to my wireless network and then the airport express can use its connection via ethernet to connect the xbox to the internet.

Is your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) a 802.11n model? If it is, you can reconfigure it as a wireless Ethernet bridge or ProxySTA. This would allow the AX to join another wireless network and have its Ethernet port enabled for wired clients, like the Xbox 360.
To activate ProxySTA, you must set up the Express to join a wireless network and then enable the Allow Ethernet Clients setting; both settings are located in the Wireless tab of AirPort Utility.

Wireless mouse and keyboard not recognized

I know that I have had this issue before, but can't remember what the solution is (old age?) My iMac G5 PPC has a wireless mouse and keyboard (the old apple white one). The iMac came with these as an option but WITHOUT the bluetooth card inside. (I still don't know how this works, but it does). Anyway, the mouse and keyboard were not recognized when I tried to get on today. The batteries are good. If I go to system prefs (using an even older wired mouse) there is no bluetooth option (since no card is present). I don't know how to get the computer to try to recognize both. Any help is definitely appreciated.

HI David,
If the iMac didn't come with Bluetooth software/hardware, then are you using a USB Bluetooth dongle?
And open System Profile (Applications/Utilities)
Select Bluetooth on the left under Hardware. You may need to click the gray disclosure triangle so it faces down. What does it say on the right?
If the Bluetooth icon is in your Status Menu Bar (top right in your screen). Click the icon and make sure Bluetooth is turned on. Then click: Open Bluetooth Preferences and try re-pairing the mouse and keyboard.
