Network Port Doesn't Seem to worl - EVER

Hi yall,
I have an Airport Express. I originaly just wanted it to stream music to my stereo. But now that my TV, Blu-Ray and Wii all have network connections, I wanted to extend my wireless network.
I have a Dell XPS One computer with Vista and a Westell/Verizon Wireless DSL Router.
My computer is connected via cable to the router and I have no problem connecting laptops wirelessly to the network.
I used "join existing network" and the Air Tunes function works flawlessly.
Shouldn't I be able to plug into the ethernet port and get network connectivity from the Airport too?
Jason C

Does it make sense that Airtunes works perfectly?
Yes
Is another option to get a second Airport Express and connect with ethernet wire to the router? Then the two Airport epxresss should talk to each other, right?
Yes that will work.

Hp compaq d610 d40 laptop network port doesn't wake up

I have tried looking for a fix for this and can't find one so if there is one and i've missed, it my apologies but basically...
I have a hp compaq d610 model d40 and with the basic windows xp installation and the default drivers (hp) on, when the system goes into stand and then is brought out of the standby mode everything wakes up except for the network port and the only way to get this to wake up is to go into device manage and scan for hardware changes or reboot.
I have tried different drivers, bios changes (not update) with no luck but strangelly enough the other 3 makes and models of the same laptop work fine.
Now, before I look into bios updates has anybody come across this?
Cheers

My 2nd Firewire port doesn't seem to work. Is it defective?

Brand new iMac Core Duo 2Ghz. I just bought a LaCie external 250gb Porsche hard drive. At first I thought it might be defective. After many tech support emails and trial and error I've now determined that it works 100% of the time on the firewire port that is closest to the power cord (I call this firewire port #1). And it 100% of the time does NOT work on the second firewire port. LaCie suggests that this port is dead.
I don't have any other firewire devices to try on this port.
My "More info" button on my "About this Mac" menu item just says "Firewire". It doesn't distinguish between one port and the other.
Say.. this is probably stupid user error huh. As in.. everyone but me knows to use the first port first, and the second port only if you have a second device.. otherwise it plays dead. hehee..
any advice?

I'm getting the same thing. The drive wouldn't even mount (though mounts perfectly on my G4 powerbook). Resetting the SMC, got it to mount fine, but then when I try to open the dive to access it's contents, finder goes beachball. I've waited 15min thus far.
It has mounted once or twice in probably 30 attemtps, but only ever by itself an not in the chain of my three firewire drives. That said, my other drives seem to mount just fine (a 1250 GB Porche drive and a 120 GB no-name enclosure). the one that doesn't work is an OWC Neptune 250GB. I'm open to any suggestions....

"Wake for network access" doesn't seem to work

I have several Yosemite Macs. My main Mac Energy Saver setting is set to wake for network access. That's the only box checked (Display set to turn off after an hour).
I can't seem to get access to this computer on my network (get a "connection failed") after the display turns off.
Any other settings I need to set to cure this?

Please follow Linc Davis's advice to see if you have a Sleep Proxy server on your home network. For example, here is what the command shows on my home network:
dns-sd -B _sleep-proxy._udp local
Browsing for _sleep-proxy._udp.local
DATE: ---Sun 12 Apr 2015---
16:34:14.530 ...STARTING...
Timestamp     A/R    Flags if Domain        Service Type         Instance Name
16:34:14.531 Add        3   5 local.        _sleep-proxy._udp.   30-35-10-70.1 Pantry
16:34:14.531 Add        2   5 local.        _sleep-proxy._udp.   50-35-10-70.1 TV_Console
I have 2 Sleep Proxy servers active on my network (both are Apple Airport Extreme home WiFi Router base stations; the names Pantry and TV_Console are the management names I have given them).
If you DO NOT have a Sleep Proxy server, then you MUST use a special program to wake up a sleeping Mac. WakeOnLan is one such program.
<http://www.readpixel.com/wakeonlan/index.html>
The Sleep Proxy or WakeOnLan will send a specially composed network packet that the networking hardware listens for and will wake up the Mac when it is seen.
The Sleep Proxy server pretends to be your Mac while it is asleep, and if you attempt to connect to the Advertised service, the Sleep Proxy server will send that magic network packet to wake up the Mac, and forward the connection request to the new awake Mac.

Charging port doesn't seem to work?

Please help me.
Randomly during the day yesterday, my computer would not charge even though it was plugged into the outlet and everything. It wouldnt come up as charging. I figured that the outlet itself was the problem because the computer worked fine charging the night before. It died this morning and still will not charge in any outlet even with chargers I know are working in other macbooks. I cleaned out the charging port with some rubbing alcohol and a Qtip and it seemed to be very dirty.. although when I finished cleaning it out the computer still would not respond to a charger plugged in. Now the computer has been dropped before.. Many many months ago.. which is why I don't think that has anything to do with it. It was working fine up until today. I think the problem is with the actual charging port. Can this be replaced? And if so, at the Apple store? It's really unfortunate that this happened on Memorial day, I cant get a hold of anyone even on the call system. I need help with this immediately.... I have to make a presentation using my MacBook this week. Please help.Thanks

Apple stores are open today!

BTHUB 5 opening ports doesn't seem to work.

I've was recently got a upgrad to my phone line and got the Unlimited Faster Broadband package.
The extra speed is great, but I'm unable to access thing like my online banking and various other sites. I do a little gaming and purchased a new game (Wildstar). It requires various ports open which from what I can see the new BT HUB 5 won't allow. I've spent the last 2 days reading all the problems and troubleshooting and have still been unable to open the ports.
Most of what I read goes over my head, so in the end I decided to give up and pay this 10 a month IT help with BT. Explained the problem and he got remote access to open the ports. Tried the game and it didn't work. He opened all the ports and dropped firewall. Still the game didn't work. He explained that nothing is wrong with the hub and it will be the game that is the problem.
I've just checked with one of the site to see if the ports are open and it says they are still closed....
I went to PC world yesterday to get a replacement for the BTHUB 5 and the sales rep recommended NETGEAT N600. It has a fiber contection, but don't think it will work.
At this point I refuse to give up... Should I keep trying with the BTHUB 5 or try to find a alternitive router.
Any adivise would be greatly appeciated as I'm currently running in circles.
Cheers
trying to open ports to access to
Solved!
Go to Solution.

When the BT guy was saying that he'd remotely opened the ports were you checking this by seeing if a site that checks whether ports are open on an IP address was saying that they're open? Just because the router says they're open doesn't mean they're open. Just because some BT guy says they're open doesn't mean they're open! Only evidence says whether they're actually open or not!!
OF COURSE he'd blame the game! His bonus depends on "solving your issue" (measured as "getting you off the phone") as quickly as possible. They measure what's easiest to measure = length of the phone call(s).

Sieve port doesn't seem to be listening

After the Mavericks upgrade, I noticed that the roundcube plugin was failing for managesieve. I get the famous "cannot connect to server" dialog in roundcube when selecting the plug-in.
After verifying the setup was still correct, I noticed that I cannot telnet into port 4190 via localhost. This would explain the connection problem, but I've done nothing to block this port. Is this a new security change and if so, how can I address it?
Thanks.

Okay, here's how to solve this in Mavericks.
sudo serveradmin settings mail:imap:enable_sieve = yes
No idea why they disabled it silently, but that should do the trick,

I spilled water on my ipod touch and I have tried the rice remedy and it doesn't seem like its ever going to power on again, so my question is is there a way i can access my pictures that were on it?

what can i do to retrieve my pictures that were on my ipod.. it no longer comes on due to water spilling on it? i had a icloud storage back up

If iTunes does not see your iPod then your only hope is a data recovery company. Not cheap.
However, you may be able to get some photos by:

- If they are in an iPod backup then restore another iPOd, iPhone or iPad from that backup. See the restore topic of:

- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

HP Probook 6445b LAN port doesn't connect

I have a HP Probook 6445b and the LAN port doesn't seem to connect when I plug a cable in. Any Ideas????

try going to the "search programs" filed at the bottom of the Windows start menu and type in cmd and then right click the little black box icon and select run as administrator and then type in the "DOS box" the following and hit enter
ipconfig /all
And see what the output is. Let us know. I assume if you connect the same cable to a different computer it gets on the internet, etc?
You may want to check network properties of the wired ethernet connection to see if perhaps someone set a static network configuration that is not compatible with your router's settings.

What is going on with the scroll function? It doesn't seem to work in any applications, now that I downloaded the new Mountain Lion?

What is going on with the scroll function. It doesn't seem to work ever since I downloaded Mountain Lion.

I've noticed this too...when I'm in Safari, scrolling is a bit jerky and sometimes it stops even though I'm still scrolling...my fingers go right off the trackpad. I just downloaded the new updates onto my brand new macbook air- had to do it manually as "power nap" doesn't work, even after the SMC reset. Lamesauce.

ThinkPad USB 3.0 dock network port has problems with our Cisco 6509 switch

We purchased a ThinkPad USB 3.0 dock for and X1 carbon and the main issue we are having is the network port does not seem to work with our Cisco 6509 switch. I tried updating the firmware on the dock but it still hasn't fixed the issue. I was wondering if anyone else had run into this problem with any other networks out there.

I'm seeing the same issue with a ThinkPad W520. When I connect my ethernet cable directly to the laptop, my internet speeds are on par with my service provider of 18 Mbps. When I move that cable to the dock, I will only see 1.5 Mbps. I have two displays attached to the dock and I'm running Windows 7. I've updated the dock firmware and have installed the latest system drivers. Is there anything else to try?

Port mapping doesn't seem to work - AEBS

I have a dsl connection to an Alcatel SpeedTouch 530 modem, linked via ethernet cable to the WAN of my AEBS, which shares the connection to three Macs and 2 Win boxes. I want to connect to aMule and get a High-ID. In the wiki.amule.org FAQ it states that to achieve this, I must use port mapping behind a firewall, and map ports 4662 (TCP) and 4665 (UDP) to my machine (which, after reading http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=607426&#607426, I have assigned to AirPort TCP/IP address 10.0.1.201, by the way).
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work, and I'm still getting the annoying 'low-ID' warnings on aMule.
Following some advice on the aMule forum, I mapped port 80 and verified that the WebServer is accessible inside the wLan, if that's of any help.
Thanks, people.

Hi Tim, a couple of questions:
1. If I go ahead and un-check the 'Distribute IP
addresses' box, how will the three Macs and two Win
computers on this wlan be affected? Do we still have
access to each other's shares, and do we still access
the internet through the AEBS?
Once you turn off the 'distribute the IP address box' then your alcatel router will then distribute ip adresses and your macs and wintel boxes will still be on the same network and using the sharepoints will remain the same if you setup the shares using the bonjour names.
I am making an assumption here in that your alcatel box is setup as a NAT router and not as a Bridge.
2. Do I just give a static internal IP to my own
powerbook, or to all the above computers?
You only need to give a static ip to the mac your doing the port forwarding to. So that is the mac that is running the p2p software, infact you would do the same for any computer on the LAN that would run a server, such as a webserver, email server etc.
Many thanks, as always.
You are welcome.
PS I had the impression that the basic idea of what I
need to do to successfully map the ports to my Mac
was to map ports from the DSL modem to the AEBS, then
from AEBS to my Mac. Is this not right? Or is this
another kind of solution to the same problem, albeit
slightly more complicated to your suggestion above?
If the alcatel modem was just behaving as a modem then you would use the AEBS as the NAT device and do the port mapping on that. However the Alcatel modem is also a router.
If you setup up your alcatel router as a bridge you would then use the AEBS as your PPPoE client and then port mapping would work.

Ever since my upgrade to lion 10.7.3, and iCloud, my macbook is running extremely slow. What can I do? It doesn't seem like my contacts are pushing through to the computer from iPhone.

Ever since my upgrade to lion 10.7.3, and iCloud, my macbook is running extremely slow. What can I do? It doesn't seem like my contacts are pushing through to the computer from iPhone.

Then your basic issues are: too little RAM, incompatible software, dysfunctional installation.
Add more RAM or kill as many programs that you use until the computer is running normally.
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps. Upgrade any old software.

My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

Thank you both for your responses but my daughter was reassured by the salesman in the iStyle store (official Apple store in the UAE) that iMessages would work but conceded that FaceTime wouldn't. My iTunes account is registered in the uk and my daughter's iPhone has iMessages even though she bought it (and uses it) in Dubai. Can anyone else throw any light on this?

Port forwarding to Apex doesn't seem to work

Hi,
We have an Oracle 11.1.0.7 database running on Linux in which I've upgraded Apex to 3.2
I'm using the embedded gateway/listener (no Apache).
Now I want to make this Apex instance available over the Internet so that a developer can work remotely. However this doesn't seem to work.
Check the listener log file I see the following lines:

Can someone explain this log file to me?
Meanwhile, I'm off to try Apache.

Hi Rob,
No, this is from internal LAN connections. I haven't been able to detect anything in the log files when attempting to connect from the internet.
I'll increase the logging level & post some findings on this later (I'm at a client site right now).
Cheers,
Colin
