Network Settings:  Need Help!

Hi people,
I have an older iMac I'm playing with.
I have a Verizon FiOS connection, but am using airport to connect to Verizon's router. (There are two other computers using this network).
On my other systems, my duplex setting is always at half duplex.
But on this machine and this Verizon router, my Duplex setting always reverts to Full-Duplex.
Is this a problem that slows my system down? Or is this the correct setting for Verizon's Routers?
Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
Walt.

Full duplex is faster than half duplex. It has nothing to do with your particular router. Duplex is part of the communications protocols. See this article.

  • My iPad says I am connected to wifi, but the internet won't work. I have tried turning wifi on/off and also resetting the network settings. Help!

    The past two days my iPad mini has not been working with the wifi at my house. There is also and iPhone 5 and an iPad air that are working perfectly fine. I don't know what to do

    Try forgetting the network, reboot your iPad and then try joining the network again.
    Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Forget this network. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Go back to Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Enter your password>Tap Join.
    If that doesn't work, reset network settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. Reboot the iPad again. Go back to Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Enter your password>Tap join.

  • Belkin Router Firewall Settings - Need Help Please

    Hi
    I'm new to Apple and love the machine, but I am having a problem with the firewall on my router. Let me explain the setup, then the problem...
    I have the following in my home network:
    1 hp desktop running Windows XP Media Center Edition, SP3 (Professional)
    1 Belkin wired / wireless router
    1 Canon Pixma MP500 Printer set for Sharing (Connected to hp desktop through USB)
    1 iMac 20" running Leopard OS
    The hp desktop and the iMac are both hardwired to the router. The router's security settings are as follows:
    Will NOT broadcast the SSID
    Mac Filtering is ENABLED (iMac MAC address is included in list of allowed connections)
    WPA-PSK Security ENABLED
    Wireless connectivity is ENABLED (For Wii, PSP, and Xbox 360)
    Now the problem...
    Everything on the network works beautifully, except the iMac. It will not allow iChat services, will not allow sharing of the desktop with other iChat members. It does, however, connect to the internet, but will not access the hp shared folders or printer. When I attempt to even add the printer, the printer does not even show up. I DO have Bonjour installed on the hp, but when I run Bonjour, I get a message that reads something like, "There are no Bonjour enabled printers available."
    I know it is the firewall built into the Belkin router because I placed the iMac into the Demilitarized Zone, and everything started working as expected. For those of you not familiar with DMZ on the router, it basically allows you to pick an IP address to place outside of the firewall, so you can keep the router firewall enabled, but you can choose an IP address (i.e., a computer) that is not behind the firewall.
    After placing the iMac in the DMZ, I went to add the shared printer on iMac. Not only did it show up immediately and give me the ability to add it and print to it, but I could also browse shared folders on my hp. I was also able to connect to a friend on iChat, and we were able to share each other's desktops.
    Before placing the iMac in the DMZ, I opened a couple of ports (I don't recall which ones at the moment), and I was able to get iChat AV to work properly, but could not get the shared desktop feature to work. I believe if I had a comprehensive list of ports to enable, I could get this issue resolved, but I can't seem to find such a list anywhere on Apple's web site (or any other web site for that matter). Do any of you have such a list of ports??
    I can provide more information if needed, but any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

    Thank you, Larry.
    I found a soft copy of the Belkin router's setup instructions on-line. I am going to enable the UPnP feature, as the manual indicates that it is necessary to have this feature enabled to do the things I want to do. The manual also indicates that the router ships with this feature disabled by default. I have not had a need to enable the feature when I had two PCs, so hopefully this will solve the problem.
    In either case, thanks for directing me to the common ports. If enabling the UPnP feature does not work, at least I can see which ports I need to enable.

  • Trying to connect to xbox live using my home network, I need help.

    I have a xbox 360 that I want to connect to xbox live with, using my home network. Every time I try to connect to xbox live the only part that fails is the connecting to xbox live part. This is how my network is set up. I have Cox Cable as my ISP, a Linksys WCG200 gateway(v2), and WRT54GS(v7). The cable wire is connected to the WCG200 gateway, then an Ethernet cable connects the gateway to the WRT54GS router, and finally an Ethernet cable connects the router to my xbox 360. I have contacted Cox, Linksys, and Microsoft about the situation and they all say the problem is the version of the router. Someone told me that I may just need to change the firmware, but I don't know how to do that. If anyone could tell me what the problem is and hopefully how to fix it, it would be much appreciated.

    u might to open port numbers 88 and 234 on your router
    here's how to open ports
    1: open IE and on the address bar, type in 192.168.1.1 and hit enter
               USERNAME: ( leave it blank )
               PASSWORD: admin ( all in lowercases )
    2: click on the tab " applications and gaming "  then click on the SUBTAB port triggering.
    3: you can just name the application like, box or whatever and fill in 88 for each of the boxes in the first line
    4: same goes to application number 2 but you have to put 2304 for each of the boxes and pls do not forget to enable it, then save settings
    5: Teset the xbox if it's now working.
    6: if still not working, go to the SECURITY tab and uncheck the bock that says, " block anonymous internet requests and save settings.
    7: teset xboox agan and if it still won't work
    8: go to the SET UP tab and look for MTU.
    9: set it to manual and lower down the size by 10.( by default, it's 1500. )→ save settings.
              Hope it will help. goodluck!

  • HT4623 want to unlock iphone to other network providers need help

    trying to unlock iphone so i am able to use any other network but ive tried and i just cant seem to do it does anyone know other ways of unlocking the phone need hel please

    The only ones who can unlock your iPhone is your phone company/carrier.
    You need to contact them and if they offer unlocking for your phone then ask them to unlock it and if they don't, there is nothing you can do.  In this case, you either need to purchase another phone that is fully and officially unlocked or you need to continue to use your phone with your current operator.
    Contact your phone comapny/carrier directly - they are the ONLY ones who can help you.

    Network is configured as follows:
    1. The two ethernets are aggregated
    2. Created Vlana dn have vlan id
    3. vswitch is presented to the guests as vsw0 and vsw1.
    After configuring the guest's network, guest can not reach the default gateway.

    We'll need some data... Could you please post the output from the following commands (in the control domain):
    ldm -V
    ldm list

    And from both guest domains and the control domian, please issue:

  • Hp laserjet 4015 network issue need help

    hello and sorry if you all seen this already, i did this post yesterday but its not showing up and my info is not showing i did the post.
    ok here's the deal.  i have a hp laserjet p4015n printer.  right now its connected to a network and every pc thats on the network can see it and print to it etc.

    so i am trying to get everything set up before i do that and i am having problems.
    i can get everything else working just fine regardless of what router i  use and on both the old slower brother printer is found and can print just fine but the hp printer refuses to be recognized.
    i have two routers i have tried this with
    a belkin n600
    linksys wrt54g
    with the linksys router when the printer is connected to it it shows as a device is connected as the light lights up solid but nothing i do can get the printer installed.
    i can not ping the route either.
    its connected to the router via an ethernet cable
    the pcs on the network mostly use win 7 but one is using windows vista but none can install the printer.
    i've tried installin gusin ghte host name and ip address

  • Problem saving Default settings - Need Help

    Hello. New user to this forum.
    I am running BB Desktop Software V. 7.1.0.41 (Bundle 42) on a Windows 7 64 bit "Ultimate" platform. I'm using a "domain" account (from Active Directory) and it has "Enterprise Administrator" rights.
    When I start BB Desktop, I click on "Tools--> Desktop Options," and then I click the "Change" button to change the "Deffault File location" for saving backup files (it defaults to "MY Documents\BlackBerry\Backup"). I change it, save it, and it changes to the new directory location I specify.  I then do my backup and sync operation, and exit the program.
    However, when I restart the program for the next backup and  sync, I find the the location has returned to the default location ("My Documents\BlackBerry\Backup") and not what I changed it to the previous session.  I change it again, and it stays changed but only for the duration of that session, If I exit the program and return to it, it goes back to the default setting...
    Is this the normal behvaior of the program? Are we not allowed to change the default backup location permanently? Or is something else stopping it from changing permanently? Perhaps a Local or domain policy setting (I dion't know if Blackberry Desktop Software is affected by these settings)...
    Any help greately appreciated. It's just a pain to have to change the location every time I enter the program.
    Thanks very much.

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    Hi All, this is my first post and question.
    I have LR3 running on 2 PC's. I wanted to change a couple of the default settings. On one of the PC's, I made a couple of changes and saved them using, Develop-Set Default Settings. When I restarted LR3, these changes were saved and being used. On the other PC, I did the exact same thing and when I restarted LR3, the changes had not been saved. Any idea why this may have happened?
    Is it possible that you are using a different body with your other PC.  The Develop presets are camera dependant. That's the only thing that I can think of.
    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    Also, I am wondering about watermarks used in LR3. On one of my PC's there is a watermarks called, A Charming Font. On the other PC, in LR3, that is not am option. I really like this watermark. Can I somehow add it to the one that does not have it?
    I believe that you should find the watermark somewhere within the "Application Support (may be called something else on a PC)" folder for Lightroom. Im not sure where that would be on a PC though. Try searching on your OS (ctrl+F) for "A Charming Font."

    Hiya!
    You're going to need to be more specific. What exactly are you not able to access? what happens? has it ever worked? can you access the internet? do you get any errors?
    If you cannot access the internet at all on your phone, chances are you do not have the correct data plan on your account and you should contact your carrier for assistance.

  • Airport will not connect to my home network after trying to connect to my school's network. Need help!

    Airport on my Macbook will no longer connect to my internet network at home. I was on campus using my university's network today and now Airport only wants to connect to it and will not change back to my home network. It has something to do with the 802.1X, and I don't know enough about networks to know what that does. Is there someway I can just reset my entire airport settings to where it would be like the first time I used my Macbook and configured it to my home network?

    Is there someway I can just reset my entire airport settings to where it would be like the first time I used my Macbook and configured it to my home network?
    Did you Shut Down the Mac and then power it back up?  Can you connect to your home network now if you click the fan shaped AirPort icon at the top of the Mac's screen? 
    If your home network name does not appear, click Join Other Network, then click Show Networks.
    Click the name of the network that you want to join and enter the password if required
    Are you saying that you want to delete the connection to the school network from your Mac?  If you do this, you will have to setup the connection again if you head back to the school.

  • TS3694 what network settings need to be set to update software?

    I am having a horrible trying to connect and updatting my ipad. Please help!!

    Hello Carl,
    to have romaing working fine you need to be sure of following:
    1) RF designed correctly , and enough overlapping is availble between the AP's.
    in addition for environment to be free from external noise..
    this can be confirmed with spectrum expert site survey
    2) what authentication and encryption used ( WEP , or WPA-PSK no need to check this point ->> skip :-) )
    if you are using any authentication like 802.1x ->> then enable CCKM on the WLAN to make more seamless roaming.
    3) if more than one WLC availble on site , configure mobility group between them,
    so if client roam from one AP in WLC 1 to AP on WLC 2 ->> no disocnnection observed....
    Kind regards

  • Newb here has been put in charge of a small company network. Need help!

    I'm new to ARD, but well versed in Macs and OSX. A friend's family has a small company and the head honcho uses ARD to monitor the other Macs at the office from her iMac running 10.6.3 there at the office, as well as from home using another iMac and a Macbook Air. I was asked to help and am well paid to figure out ARD for them. They booted their last IT guy, by the way. So the boss's Macbook Air and her Office iMac are the Administrators, and the iMac at home is the client. All machines running 10.6.3 and latest ARD 3.3.2 Admin and Client s/w.
    For whatever reason I can only control or watch the office iMac from the iMac at home, and cannot access the home iMac from the office.
    For the record, the Macbook Air does not have this same issue, but I've yet to tackle it.
    When I double click the office iMac from the Home iMac and look through the tabs, I am told the Client s/w on that office iMac is an old version.
    I have read the white papers and watched the Apple videos. This just doesn't make sense!
    What is going on? Any hints? Please......

    FIXED! However........
    The home iMac "supposedly" has a fixed IP address. Well, it wandered a bit apparently so there was a small change at the ISP that threw everything off. I looked into an email sent from that machine's user and displayed the long header to get the IP address of the home iMac. I then entered that new IP address into ARD from the office iMac, and BAM, works like a charm now!
    What I can't figure out is why the ARD on home iMac says the office iMac is running 10.5.8, when it is running 10.6.3 and it also says the office ARD client is 3.2.X rather than the actual 3.3.2 it is indeed running. Weird?
    Any ideas? Maybe everything will update once I use ARD from the home iMac into the office iMac?

  • I setup a Cisco Home Network and Need help Logging into It

    Hello, I have four 2521 routers and three 2954 switches.  I connected my ISPs modem from the ethernet port and plugged it into port 24 of one of my switches.  I also configured the switch for VTY access and gave it a login password.  I would like to log into the switch to configure it and telnet into all the other devices from a remote location.  But I am unable to ping the public address assigned to me by my ISP.  So I can't even telnet to the switch.  Help

    With help from elsewhere, I have learned how to change the colors and figured out a few other things. I have another question, though.
    I want to put a Twitter widget and a comment box on my website. I have the widget code from Twitter, but it is HTML and javascript or something. Can I just put these codes into the modules of the flash template? If you look at the template, you should see that it has modules that have editable HTML  text areas, but I don't know if it is limited to text or something, or if it will function correctly if I put other HTML codes in it such as script codes, etc in it.
    Also, if that works, does anyone know where I can get a code to put the comment box in one of the modules? I don't mean a contact box, I mean a widget where people can leave comments and the comments display on the page, like on a myspace profile. Just something simple that allows a visitor to leave a name and a text-only comment. I would also like to be able to selectively delete comments in case of spammers, etc.
    I found this, which might be what I am looking for, just a simple comment box, but this one is flash:
