Net/router guru help needed (5Ghz network)

I purchased Netgear WNDR4500 router and wanted to set it up the way that my MacBook Air (2010/Snow Leopard with latest updates) connects to it via 5Ghz network only.
The problem is that when I start up my Air one of the three times a message pops up on my MacBook saying "None of your prefered networks are available"
but below the message it offers to connect to the other found networks and my 5Ghz connection is listed there. If I press it connection starts immediately. Sometimes it connects without a problem.
If I add 2.4Ghz to known networks and MacBook can't connect to the 5Ghz (It's first prefered network in list) it connects to 2.4Ghz. There are no such problems with the other band.
However I'd like have automatic connection to 5Ghz allways not manual.
I tried different settings in router (security modes, no security, speed settings, network card access list, channels etc) but no luck...SSID's are CCC and CCC 5Ghz respectiveley.
Maybe there are some advanced settings in router to solve this or terminal commands in MacBook.

On your MacBook......
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Network
Click on AirPort on the left
Click Advanced at the lower right
Make sure that the CCC 5 GHz network name is at the top of the connection order list. If it's not, drag it to that position.
Also make sure that there is a check mark in the box next to "Remember networks this computer has joined". No other boxes should be checked.
Click OK, then click Apply and close the windows
Your should understand that the 5 GHz network is not necessarily the strongest or best quality signal since 5 GHz frequencies are absorbed by any obstrucitons much more quickly than 2.4 GHz signals.
Another way of saying the same thing is that need line of sight...or close to it.....between the computer and router for really good performance with 5 GHz.

Net info manager, Help Needed

Good Morning all
I have a Mac that is on my network and I am trying to get it to connect to a web server, so I can do some browser testing. It will connect OK if I use the IP in the browser. But not when I try and use Net info manager
This works fine on My other Mac and I have copied the settings like for like in net info manager.
I have also made sure that there is no proxy info.
Am I missing a setting??

Airport Express/Router Connection - Help Needed!

I was given an Airport Express for Christmas to use to beam my iTunes from my iMac to a pair of powered speakers in a different room. I was using the AE in conjunction with a Netgear wireless router.
It was a pig to set up but now I wish to change everything and I might need help.
I want to connect my router to the iMac by ethernet cable - the 2 bits of equipment are only 2 feet apart! Thus the AE will be the only piece of kit connected wirelessly to the router.
I would like to delete the present connection of AE to router and start again.
Is there anything I need to know about changing my router to Mac connection from wireless to wired and reinstalling my wireless connection from router to AE?

We would like to have routing (and vLans) done on the switches, and have internet failover from ISP1 to ISP2 if ISP1 fails, and go back to ISP1 when it comes back up. Trunks between all switches. We also would like to have all devices on the same vLAN if possible.
What is the best approach to do this?
(Note that left and right sides [in brown and green font] are in separate site locations, and that user end [in red font] switches only have ip base, which limits eigrp functionality.)
We tried following this, but doesn't fit our site exactly:
http://www.geekmungus.co.uk/cisco-and-networking/failoverinternetconnectionusingipslatrackingandeigrproutingforinter-sitelinks
(Also ran into issue where switch in the middle would have two routes to internet - so possible issue with priority routes)
Thanks in advance

The servers in SiteB (3750_2) are just replicated copies of the servers in SiteA (3750_1). However, there always needs to be an active connection between SiteA and SiteB. Only time that the UserSite(3750_3) needs to access servers in SiteB is when SiteA is completely down.
However, if the servers in SiteA (3750_1) can still be reached through via site SiteB (3750_2) when the direct connection between the UserSite(3750_3) and SiteA (3750_1) is down, that route should also be available (if possible).
The above is good news because it means we can route optimally for both internet and client to server traffic. STP is blocking one of the links from 3750_3, the one to 3750_2.
A couple of questions from the configurations you posted -
1) on 3750_3 you said in a previous post the clients use the vlan 10 interface IP on 3750_3 as their default gateway. But there are no default routes in the routing table on 3750_3 so how does internet work at the moment ?
In fact there are no default routes on any of the stacks. Is internet not working at the moment because i can't see how it can be.
What is weird is that you have static default routes configured on each 3750 IP Services stack but they are not even showing up in the routing tables on that stack ?
2) the 192.168.50.32/29 and 192.168.50.40/29 networks. They don't seem to be doing anything ? I think they were meant to be for the uplinks from 3750_3 but they haven't been used for this.
3) the IP services stack connections to the routers. Do you know what IP subnet is used for this. It looks like it is vlan 10 again but can you confirm ie. what are the routers LAN interface IP addresses ?
So if you can answer the above we can probably start with reconfiguration. There is going to be quite a lot. You can however do some prepatory work without affecting anything -
1) pick a new subnet for the client vlan and create the scope on your DHCP servers. If you use both DHCP servers then split the scope in half between DHCP servers
2) pick a new vlan number for use for the clients
3) assuming the router's LAN interfaces are in vlan 10 i will need 4 x /30 subnets for all four uplinks ie. 2 from 3750_3 and 2 for each IP Services stack to router connection. You can just give me a class C if you want and i will break it down
4) we only want the new client vlan on 3750_3. If 3750_3 is in VTP client mode then it will not work once we change to L3 uplinks so we need to change the VTP mode to VTP transparent on the 3750_3. Once you have done this we can then create the new client subnet and the L3 vlan interface for the client subnet + ip helper-addresses and this still won't affect your current setup.
All of the above can be done with no downtime although if you change to VTP transparent do this out of hours just in case there is an impact. There shouldn't be but it is worth being safe.
Next are the changes that will require downtime. I appreciate it is three separate sites but because you are changing the uplinks it needs to be done all at once. Basically we need to -
1) on all clients release the current IP address. Then have them shutdown.
2) modify EIGRP config for new client vlan and remove all the other stuff as it is not needed
3) reconfigure all uplinks to be L3 on switch stacks and then check the routing tables to make sure there is a route for vlan 10.
3) allocate all ports for clients into the new client vlan
4) bring clients back up and they should then get new IPs from the DHCP server
5) remove any unnecessary configuration from 3750_3
6) reconfigure 3750_1 and 3750_2 connections to their routers
7) modify EIGRP configuration on both IP Services stacks
8) modify IP SLA configuration on 3750_1. Note there is no point in tracking on 3750_2 because only when ISP1 fails do you want to use ISP2 and if ISP2 fails while ISP1 is down there is nothing to fail back to.
9) modify EIGRP config on the routers
that's a brief outline of what needs doing so you can see it is a fair bit and will need careful planning. As far as the default route goes there are two options and i'm still thinking it all through -
1) have both routers generate a defaut route and apply a delay on the 3750_3 to 3750_2 uplink so 3750_1 is preferred. The advantage of this is that 3750_3 has both routes so if the uplink to 3750_1 it can immediately switch to 3750_2. The delay would also apply to vlan 10 as well so traffic would go to 3750_1 which is what you want.
2) have only 3750_1 generate a default route and only if ISP1 fails does ISP2 then generate a default route. The advantage of this is that you would not need to tweak the delay to get ti right but if ISP1 fails there will be a delay before 3750_2 realises the default route has gone and generates it's own.
So it's a tradeoff. I'll have another look at the configs etc. and decide which is best.
It is a fairly large redesign but at the moment the configurations are quite confusing because there is a lot of extra stuff which isn't doing anything as far as i can see. I am happy to provide configs and explanations as to what you should see and also happy to be around when you implement it ie. e-mail or if you can't e-mail (no internet access ) then on the phone. You would just need to let me know when you needed me and i'll make sure i am available (no charge obviously).
If you could answer the above questions and let me know how you want to proceed then we can take it from there.

WRT54G Wireless Router Setup Help Needed

Hi,
I have a WRT 54G router I want to set up on my network.
What I want to be able to do is have the router allow wireless laptops to connect via wireless, but I want the router to assign the IP automatically through DHCP. Is this possible?
My Network information is as follows:
Router would be assigned IP 192.168.72.10
Network information for Office where this is going:
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.72.1
Primary DNS: 192.168.1.59
Secondary DNS: 192.168.1.52
any help would be appreciated...

First of all, let me say that, assuming you have a Linksys router in the main office, that there is no reason why that router could not use both fixed LAN IP addresses, and have its DHCP server turned on and give out DHCP addresses also. So, it seems like you could setup the system in the manner I mentioned in my previous post.   Unless, for some reason, you prefer not to do it this way.
If you really want to set it up with the WRT54G giving out DHCP addresses, then read on:
If you want to use the DHCP server in the WRT54G, you will need to place it on a separate subnet.
I'm still a bit confused by what you have written. You said that the WRT54G router "would be assigned IP 192.168.72.10". And later you said that my assumption was correct that you set the "Local IP Address" to this value.   However, if you want to use the DHCP server in the WRT54G, this will not work, because to use the DHCP server, the WRT54G needs to be on a separate subnet.
Instead, in the WRT54G, you would need to set the "Internet Connection Type" to "Static", then give the WRT54G the WAN address (not local IP address) of 192.168.72.10.   (You will also need to specify the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 , default gateway 192.168.72.1 , and DNS (proxy) server 192.168.72.1 ) You would need to reset the WRT54G's "Local IP address" to a subnet that is not used elsewhere in your network. Since you apparently already use 192.168.1.x and 192.168.72.x subnets, you will need to pick something else, perhaps 192.168.54.1 for the "local IP address" of the WRT54G.
In this type of setup, you would leave the DHCP server of the WRT54G enabled, and wire a LAN port from the office router to the Internet port of the WRT54G.
In this case, the WRT54G is in control of all your router settings, including port forwarding, DHCP server, and wireless settings. Also note that if you need to forward a port, you will need to forward the port through your entire network, not just the WRT54G.
One additional warning. I have not personally used a "3 subnet" system with Linksys routers. So I am not certain that all your DNS addresses will flow through the system properly. If it doesn't work, you may need to enter some of you actual Internet based DNS addresses (or perhaps your Primary and Secondary 192.168.1.59 and .52 DNS servers) into the WRT54G router by hand, rather than using the built in Linksys DNS proxy at 192.168.72.1
Hope this helps.

Help need setting up remote desktop (on a router)

hey networking pros,
I have major trouble setting up remote login (remote desktop).
Specification : OSX tiger, LINKSYS
now i have managed to use tightVNC and manage remote desktop BUT that was when i was on the same network. Now my laptop lies at home and at school (work) i have windows running and want to access my mac at home. I cant manage to do that. Since i am on a different network and that i have router at home and also i do not use air port express (i use a linksys)
I need a static ip which in need to know the DNS servers (adelphia dosent give that to me since i am not a business customer). I have enabled port forwarding (5900) i have even set up an an account with dysDNS.org (i dunno how that helped).
can some one please give me with step by step instruction.
thanks

You already have most of what you need, but you do need a little more understanding of what you're doing.
Keep in mind that the Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection client is one-way only. You can connect from a Mac to a Window XP Professional computer, but not from Windows XP Pro to Mac OS X. What I describe below is how to connect from a Mac on the Internet to a Windows XP Pro computer at home.
First, Remote Desktop may look like VNC, but it's not the same thing. Therefore, port 5900, which works with VNC, won't work for Remote Desktop. You'll want to port forward 3389 to make this work. When you go to your router and make this port forward entry, you'll enter the IP address of the machine you want to direct all RDC traffic to. This gets the RDC traffic from your router to your computer.
You went to DynDNS.org to help you find your router on the Internet. The IP address, as you've researched, can change. But if you set up your router to report its IP address to DynDNS then you can always connect to your router by name. You don't have to keep track of your IP address changing. DynDNS will do this for you. This gets the RDC traffic from you to your router.
So, the steps are:
1. Set up a DynDNS.org account and you'll give yourself a name such as "myrouter" so that you can use a name like "myrouter.homeip.net" to connect to your home network.
2. On your router, port forward all incoming Internet 3389 traffic to the IP address and port 3389 of your computer.
3. On your Windows XP Pro computer (you can't do this with Windows XP Home) enable the Remote Desktop Connection software (right-click My Computer --> Properties --> Remote tab --> select the second checkbox).
4. From a Mac somewhere on the Internet, open the RDC client and enter the DynDNS name you gave yourself and click the Connect button.
5. Your Mac will contact DynDNS and get your current IP address.
6. Your Mac will then connect to your home router, which will forward all RDC traffic (coming in on port 3389) to your Windows computer in your home.
Hope this helps! bill

Networking OS 8.6 with OS X help needed

I need to network an old Power Computing clone running 8.6 to one of my more current Macs in order to get some files off a short stack of Jaz disks. I can get the clone to see the drives on a PPC running 10.2 but have had no luck actually moving them. As the process begins the clone always freezes. I've followed some instructions I found in a 2010 c|net article (using ethernet and TCP/IP settings and Chooser), but I really don't know what I'm doing or what to try next. I also have a MacBookPro running 10.6.8 but thought I'd have more luck with an older OS. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

If both computers are connected via the built-in Ethernet switch of a router, and if there for some reason is a problem with file sharing, you may want to try transfers over the Internet instead. For a limited number of smaller files, email attachments would be one possibility.
Setting up web sharing under Mac OS 8.6 could perhaps be another way. This would allow you to access files on the old computer from a Mac OS X machine, using a normal web browser.
Yet another possibility could be FTP (either by letting an FTP client at the 8.6 machine push files, or by installing a small FTP server there).

I'm in the process of creating a WiFi network from my IMac to my LG HDTV. I am incorporating a LG WiFi capable Blu-ray player and will purchase an Apple Express or Apple Extreme router. I need some advise on using this aquipment.

I need help in determining the best way to create a WiFi network from my IMAC to a WiFi capable LG Blu-Ray player that will connect to my LG HDTV. Since I will only need one network I need to know which is the best Apple Airport router to use (Express or Extreme). What is the correct way to connect these units? It seem self explanitory,but I'm checking my thinking. My HDTV is about 20' from where the airport router will be installed with a wall between them. Has anyone created this network? Is this the best way to create a WiFi network?

Home Networking help needed.

All: I am refinishing the basement and installed some ethernet to 2 walls. I outlet for a TV (when I buy it) and another for a PC (for if the resident needs it). I also want to have my wireless from upstairs be a strong signal.
So I need to know the device that will:
1) Pick up my existing wireless signal and repeat it for the basement rooms wirelessly.
2) Have 2 ethernet ports available for the hard wiring I put in.
The location for this in the drop ceiling has an 110V outlet readily available next to it.
Can someone guide me what I need to purchase to complete this and test the wiring (connectorization) I did?
Thanks a ton: Ed

I tend to like Ubiqiti (http://www.ubnt.com/ ) products but they can be difficult to find. These are dedicated APs, they do no routing and you'd need to also get an Ethernet switch (any old switch will do) to take the one hardwire drop from upstairs and provide a few wired ports (2 for the walljacks and 1 for the AP) downstairs. I linked to a switch below.
Also nearly any wireless router can be reconfigured as a combo AP/switch, in which case I'd just reccommend something with stable firmware. (This can be hard, you just have to read LOTS of reviews, or find something on the DD-WRT compatibility list and flash the router with that firmware. Note that DD-WRT will void a router's warranty, but if you put it into a cheap router it's usually worth the risk.)

I need help to be able to print from my mac. I also have parallels running with xp installed and all the printers are installed on that side and printing fine. Hopefully someone can help me out.
Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
In order to provide the user with the ability to input a user code, the respective printer driver would have to provide the facility. If this feature did exist on a previous version of OS X, then you may have to check the vendors web site to see if there is a driver for 10.6.
If you are not sure if the function was supported previously, then go through all the user menus for the driver. The function may be present but located in an unusual location. Or it could require an additional file (aka plugin) that could be missing from the driver installation or not compatible with 10.6.
The other thing to note is that if you have the Mac's printing via a Windows queue, you will have to provide user credentials for SMB print queues. This is typically a Windows user account - not the Mac's account details. If you don't want to create accounts for the Mac users on the Windows server, then you can use LPD rather than SMB to connect to the Windows queues. This does require UNIX Printing Services to be enabled on the server.

Need Help setting up "Network Home Directories" or Something Similar

Alright so, I am sure the answer to my question exists but I have no idea what i am looking for as far as syntax is concerned. I have taken over as tech at a full mac School and have not touched a mac before in my life. I will try my best to give a detailed description without an entire life story.
My school has 10.4 on laptops which we run a script on to bind to a directory allowing them to access accounts created on our server. That part works fine. The problem we are having is syncing or saving any files/changes to these networked accounts. The accounts seem to have home directories created, i went through workgroup manager and set up login/out and background syncs, and nothing seems to work(Copy/save). This year it would have been nice to have the syncing feature since all student/teacher laptops would go back and forth from home and work. However next year will change a bit since we will keep all student laptops here and the teachers will still take them home. We also have desktops of course which do not move and will be accessed by the students.
I need to find a way for students to log into the server to access their account and have it automatically pop up displaying their own files/folder on any machine they access since they wont always be at the same machine. considering there will be upwards of 100 students accessing each machine, local syncing for this would not be a good idea. My best guess would be setting up network home directories so they can log into and work directly from the server and have nothing but the original OS installed on their local machine.
As far as the teachers go, Since they have one laptop the entire year and take them home the syncing method would be the best. That way they can come here, turn on their laptop, automatically sync as they log in, and save everything when they log out (or every so many minutes since some of them close it and just run home). I tried doing this with a student account but could not get it to work. My other problem with this is that the teacher laptops are 10.5 and I have no clue how to bind them to the directory since I was not the one who created the original script which is something i would like to reverse engineer to my standards since it has some nice little things in it I just wish to tweak.
A short recap of what i need:
1) Network based accounts with network home directories, nothing locally saved
2) Network Based accounts with Portable Home Directories, Syncing between local and server files
3) Bind 10.5 machines to server
4) Program to read and edit a script.
I somewhat know the terminology for PHDs and MHDs and have read a bit about those but still cannot get them to work, but I am extremely frustrated with my lack of terminology for NHDs (If that is what they would even be called) and have had a hard time finding any information on how to set them up. The only thing i found was stating that if the server goes down, so do the accounts. Which isnt a problem since we have multiple servers as well as last ditch local accounts for students to just access the computers.
As far as i know, our servers are running LDAPv3 w/ OD, maybe even not with OD, I really don't know. If anyone can give me any help with this it would be much appreciated. If you need any additional information let me know and I will try my best to get it to you. I may even be willing to wipe everything and start fresh if it is required since these havent been used much in over 2 years, only for drive mounting storage.

I received some information on another forum, however I am still stuck.
So i rebound a laptop to the server via Directory Access, created a new account using Workgroup Manager, set the Home Point in WGM for the Account to a specified folder on the server's raid and no luck.
The account authenticates with the server, but it saves everything locally and ignores the NHD. Anyone with any ideas?
