Network speed WAY down for internet - help??

I have 3 airport extreme's set up as a WDN. It all works great. Internet is fast through a cable modem attached to the main stations WAN port.
It seems though that when "certain" users are getting into heavy internet traffic, seemingly large continuous downloads, the REST of the network is slowing down. The internet slows down to a CRAWL, so much so that eventually safari brings up the "network troublshooting" thing.
What is perplexing about this is that when I try to remote desktop to another machine on the LAN, THIS TOO has slowed to a crawl! There are no other LAN transfers or interactions between machines going on, ONLY NAT/DHCP net access.
I KNOW it is other users, because when I disconnect the internet, the network speed instantly goes back to super fast, remote desktop works great etc, then it seems somebody is starting their download again (ha ha that I just disconnected) and suddenly it's crawling. This doesn't seem right, not with only 3 - 5 users on a 3 base station system, and a 1Mb/s internet cable connection.... does it? At least, if the internet is slowing down, other LAN traffic (non internet related) should not right?? This is the part that has got me confused.
Also is there any software out there that will let me see stats from the main station in regards to:
- DHCP LAN assignments
- and upload / download traffic of each of those LAN addresses and other information.
Thanks,
Miklos.
PS Just to be clear when the internet is extremely slow it is not one particular site - email doesn't work, and the same site, reloaded again and again does not load - the rest of the network is simultaneously slow - I disconnect the internet (log off via simple software app supplied by the ISP) and within 5 - 10 seconds, network speed is visibly up - things start loading properly, and the internet - the same site, starts to load very fast.
My dilemma is how can the internet usage slow the REST of the network, when it's a very fast system! Another point: I am NOT resetting the base stations, they are remaining online and nobody is getting bumped off, I'm only disconnecting the internet feed that's ALL, so it's not like they're getting kicked off and then network speed is resuming, they are still in effect logged on to the network, they just can't access the internet.

Did you run it in store? If so, the wireless instore is notoriously bogged down/slow with all the things connected to it.

Personal Domain and Network Solutions

Does anyone out there have a .Mac Personal Domain site working where Network Solutions is the Registrar? If so, how did you handle the CNAME aliasing?

For anyone else having this problem it appears that you must:
1. In the Network Solutions Advanced DNS Manager, first eliminate the numerical IP address for 'Host' entry 'www'. When you first look at this entry it will have a note something to the effect that "Currently points to the "Under Construction" page.
2. Replace the Alias 'CNAME' with the entry 'www' then enter your Domain Name (i.e. mypersonaldomain.com) in the 'Other Host' box.
I may be wrong on this but you may need to allow a period of several hours between this two steps.

Cname settings help needed for a Network Solutions Personal Domain

Hi-
I've purchased a personal domain name from Network Solutions. I've followed the instructions that Apple has given me, and have specified "web.mac.com" as the alias name, as well as specifying "www" in the drop down box in the next field to the right of the alias field. I've also set up my personal domain name on the Apple side. However, after 48 hours, I'm still seeing the "site under construction page" from Network Solutions when I go to view my personal domain. I confirmed on the Apple side that iWeb was now using my personal domain name, and I was also able to confirm that my domain name was/is pointing to web.mac.com. What am I doing wrong? Does anybody out there with a Network Solutions domain name have any experience with this?

Did you ever get an answer on this?

Network Solution

Hi all.
I need a network solution with following inventory and users/servers profile.
1-2 x 4503 Switches(cisco)
2-10 x 2950 Switches(cisco)
3-One ISA Server.
4-One Exchange Server
5-One DSL router for Internet Connectivity.
I have 4 sites and a single HQ. All the sties wii be connected to HQ over fiber using VPN.All the servers will have to be on central location.
Every site including central location have appx 100 users (WinXP).
Please suggest me some suitable solution. Security and Bandwidth saving is the main concern.
Thanks.

For site-to-site VPN, remote access, and firewall services, you create security policies to then use in ISC service requests. For site-to-site VPN, remote access, NAT, and firewall services, you create a service request, which bundles together the service policy (as applicable) and the list of CPE devices for which they are intended. You then deploy the service request, which creates the device-level configurations (called configlets) and pushes them down to provision all security devices in your network at the same time.

Outgoing email rejected by Network Solutions server

Recently my outgoing emails are being rejected by the server. My server is Network Solutions. How do I fix this.

Tap Settings
Tap Mail,Contacts,Calendars
Tap the name of the account
Scroll down and tap SMTP
Is the primary server the Network Solutions outgoing server name (you can check the instructions for mobile devices on their web site)
Tap on the name of the SMTP server
Verify that the Host Name is correct
The User Name is your email address
The Password is your email password
SSL should probably be ON, but try both ways
Authentication should probably be Password, but check their web site
Server Port will be 465 if SSL is on, but check their web site
Tap Done

Hosting website on BC but using Network Solutions for receiving emails

We have our domain name registered through Network Solutions and our emails also go through them. We went live with our Muse website (www.martellaprinting.com) by changing the A Record on NS's end by pointing to IP address 54.236.189.61. Previously, our website was pointing to some other IP 74.xxx.xxx.xx. We were advised not to redelegate to BCs World securesystems name servers because we wished to continue using NetSolutions for emails and not wipe out our existing MX records. I obtained the MX records plus 2 CNAME records, one was mail.martellaprinting.com and the other smtp.martellaprinting.com. I've spoken with NetSolutions and they say everything looks fine on their end (MX records, CNAME records.) What do I need to do in the Business Catalyst Site Settings/Site Domains? All of this is happening because, of course, we can no longer receive our emails via the email client (Thunderbird.)

Funny how life is, i have the exact reverse question to this...
How do you host just emails on BC (meanwhile porting the whole site that is hosted somewhere else with a one year contract)
A good client of mine and friend (that will redo is site with us on BC in nov 2014) received, a couple of week ago and email saying that thier hosting company for thier actual site, wont be supporting emails anymore...
they are offering my client to go the google way... which is not a bad solution.
However, it cost 50$/year per account.
i am the one who registred their 8 domains... (so i can modify the MX at the registrar.)
could i have one of them point it's MX to a BC hosting plan, while keeping it's DNS pointing to the actual website
Then tell the main domain's email to redirect to the BC one?
does that make any sence to you?
to recap:
My client has a website and hosting. but will lose email service by the end of january.
They have 5 accounts they need to keep them alive.
Could i use BC to host theses account, not the website. (not until nov 2014)
... then at the end of their website hosting contract with the other firm, we will host everything on BC (cos they allready paid for a year)
and they are a non profit organisation so they dont have tons of cash to spend
hope you all could understand my English.
i really need help with this.
best regards,
ive d.

Server Mail will not delete - tx.rr and Network solutions

I have an iphone 4s. My first iphone. I have two email accounts set up. Both of them are setup to delete from server when delete from inbox.
They are not working.
I have called apple and the pop 3 providers and neither can help.
I have tx.rr.com - road runner and Network Solutions (company I have a domain name with).
BOTH of these have worked corectly with my last two phones, Blackberry and Samsung Epic. But neither are working with the iphone.
Is anyone else having this issue or suggestions on what to try.
Of course I want to get apple and road runner on the same call so I don't keep getting sent back an forth to each one.
I REALLY want to be able to delete from the phone as I get so many emails due to my personal business...I want to be able to delete all day long and not have to go home and read/delete again.

Yes, it was definitely within Cyrus. The Apple interfaces are pretty and all but they didn't even get close to helping me solve this easily.
Essentially, what I did was download all the emails from the server (to make sure I didn't miss anything), rename my email folder to something different to preserve the emails in case I really did miss something, then do a recover on the mailbox.
Being a UNIX-head, here's what I did on the server:
cd /var/spool/imap/user
mv scott scott.dead
sudo /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/reconstruct -r user/scott
Sudo, of course, prompted me for the superuser password but everything was fixed right away after that. It is recommended to shut down the mail service from inside the Server Admin program first.

Small Office Network Solution for Final Cut Server - Proxy Storage Etc.

Hi,
I haven't been able to find any answers for this question by googling, So I would love if anyone here had some advice. I have the 10 License version of Final Cut Studio with 5 clients at the moment. I would like to set-up our office in the most effective way, however we are a non-profit organization, so we are working with a limited budget.
My question is, does anyone know of any networking solutions for Proxy Storage and Media storage, that wont bottleneck, but is not as high budget/high tech as using an Xserve/XSan system?
Right now we would be looking at running Final Cut Server off of our 24inch Intel IMac (Going to beef up the RAM). We have a Gigabit Switch, 4 more intel machines running final Cut pro, and a direct attached Drobo for Media Storage. I know this is not an Ideal set-up, but it's what I have to work with right now. So, I'm looking for any kinds of tips and tricks to make this set-up work for us, and am looking at purchasing either a Network Attached or iscsI storage system for the Proxy Storage.
I hope this is a decent description of my situation, and would love some advice.
Thanks Very Much,
MacNomad

Problem with internet. When i open System preferences, Network, message drops down: 'your network settings have been changed by another application'. I click OK, but it drops a message again and again, preventing me to do anything about the setting.

A Fix for "Your network preferences have been changed by another application" Error
In the Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ folder delete the following:
com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
NetworkInterfaces.plist
preferences.plist
com.apple.nat.plist
You will have to re-configure all your network settings since deleting.

Use Software Update to update your OS to last version of Tiger. Install all the other updates that goes along w/it.

I can use cut and paste in Rich Text Editors for all web site hosts but one. I have tried the solution you provided, but it doesn't work. Any ideas? the website that rejects cut and paste is Network Solutions

I really hoped you would fix the security policy issue in release 4. I have to close Firefox and use IE9 to maintain a website I built with Network Solutions and I'd much rather not have to endure the slowness of IE. I also have websites with Wix and WEBS and have no problems at all using cut and paste with them.

Did you have it connected to the library mac when it froze? If so, why? I would be hesitant to hook my ipod to a unprotected public computer since it may be infested with viruses or have unknown hardware problems.
In any case, if you can get it to an Apple store they can probably help you with it, it sounds like it needs replacing.
A certain percentage of any complex product will turn out to be defective and will have to be returned, it sounds like you were unlucky enough to get one. Looking over the forums here it may seem like the ipod is plagued with bugs, but don't forget that there are millions who never have a problem and so have no reason to pipe up here. Personally I think Apple deserves a thumbs up for continuing to host these forums in spite of how they may cast a negative light on thier products to the casual observer.

I can send email but not receive on my iphone 3GS. Emails to my .me address are OK but not emails to the address hosted by Network Solutions. NS have checked my settings twice. I am using IMAP. Is this a problem with iCloud?

I use IMAP email hosted by Network Solutions for my main email address. I can send and receive this OK in my Mac Mail on my MAC book and also on webmail. However my iphone doesn't receive these emails but it can send. I have checked settings on my iphone twice with Network Solutions but no luck. Emails addressed to my .me address are received OK. I have a suspicion this problem started when I signed up to icloud.
my ISP is BTconnect
Any ideas?

Useful suggestions. In fact I had already deleted and re-entered the account details a few days ago without apparent success. The error message was along the lines of "cannot access the server".
Anyway about an hour after your message, my emails started coming through after a 6 month gap! - makes me think someone at Network Solutions monitors these discussions.
Many thanks

Can't load a page using Network Solutions website tool builder using Firefox 5.0.1; they recommend using 3.6! How do I get a copy of 3.6?

I use Network Solution's Website Tool Builder to manage several websites. Since upgrading Firefox to 5.0.1, some of the pages no longer load and therefore I can't edit them. The sites come up okay in the browser, but not in NetSol's editor. When I called their tech support, they said it was a Firefox problem. They said I need to use Firefox 3.6...Is there a way for me to get a copy of that version of Firefox?

I need to access Network Solutions website builder too. It isn't compatible with Internet Explorer v9, Chrome v13, or Firefox v5! I believe Firefox v6 is out now. This is a Network Solution's problem. What's involved in rolling back? Can you still get add-ons, plugins, and extensions for such an older version? You can't save your personal preferences can you?

Creating a CNAME on Network Solutions

I am trying to create my first website with iWeb on me.com using a Domain Name I created at Network Solutions. And of course the instructions for iWeb don't quite match the forms at Network Solutions. I found how to create a personal domain name on my me.com account. It tells me to define web.me.com as the CNAME at my regristar's website. I found the account manager tool for CNAMEs at Network Solutions and am given two boxes to fill out: "alias" and "other host" The "other host" box has a radio button. Then there is another box with a radio button labeled "Refers to Host Name" and there are two choices: "www" or "@(none). I can check either the "Refers to Host Name" radio button or the "Other Host". I am guessing that I should check "Other host" and that is where I enter "web.me.com". Can some confirm?

The alias field should have the 'www' and the '@' symbols with the CNAME being set for both that then forwards to your host web.me.com.
The @ represents your domain name which is http://domain.com and then the www represents your sub domain which is http://www.domain.com. For both these options to work both 'www' and '@' need to have CNAME's forwarded to web.me.com.
If there is no option to set a CNAME for both of these - (there should be though), then you need to set the CNAME for one, possibly the www and then use web forwarding to forward the @ to the www.
Set it up like this and see what happens.

Can't get Email client to work with Network Solutions Email server

This is a new Email account started after I installed Snow Leopard. The Email server is Network Solutions. I have tried all afternoon and evening trying to set up just one account / mailbox on the Mac and I still haven't gotten it to work. I have been over the settings multiple times with Network Solutions and they tell me all the settings are correct, but still no joy. When I try to 'Get Mail' it simply spins its wheels for a minute or so then displays a (!); i.e. it times out and stops trying. I don't know if it is something about Network Solution's servers that is causing the problem or if it something wrong on my end (most likely). Any idea what I can try? Is there a log someplace that will tell me exactly what part of the process is failing?

Problem solved. For some reason the POP client had 'SSL' turned on. Guess I set it by accident during one of my many tries. All is well now.
