Networking through Dial-up

I have many computers, and was wondering if I could turn one of them into a mini isp, so that I could dial-up my computer from either my house or from a phone.
I would probably use my ibook g3, which gets it's internet through wifi or ethernet.

Alternatively, if you need Wi-Fi for an older computer, there may be ways to achieve that as well. For example, some older PowerBook computers can be made to work with a wireless PC Card.

Almost any Ethernet-capable computer will work with a wireless Ethernet bridge (such as WNCE2001 or WET610N from Linksys; or an older model from these companies or Belkin or D-Link). Some PDAs can use a separate Wi-Fi card.

How can I know which clients are connected to my network through express and which are connected through extreme?

I have an airport express extending, through wireless, a network provided by an airport extreme. How can I know which clients are connected to my network through express and which are connected through extreme?
Here you can see both routers:
I would expect to some clients connected to the express, other than the extreme. And that's all I see: only the airport extreme appears as client of the airport express.
Below, one can see the summary of the config for both routers.
Would somebody explain it?
Thanks,
Marcelo

How to restrict users working on Windows 7 clients from accessing Windows Explorer and other systems in the network through Group Policy with a domain controller running on Windows Server 2008 r2

Dear All,
We are having an infrastructure setup of around 500 client computers managed through group policy.
Recently the domain controllers have been migrated from Windows Server 2003 to Server 2008 R2.
Since this account requires extremely strict environment, we need to figure the solution for restricting the users from access anything locally.
It would be great if you can assist me with the following query.
How to restrict users logged on Windows 7 clients from accessing Windows Explorer and browsing other systems in the network through Group Policy with a domain controller running on Windows Server 2008 r2 ?
Can we disable Network Tab on the left hand pane ?
explorer.exe is blocked already, but users are able to enter the Windows Explorer by clicking on the name which is visible on the Start Menu.

You cannot block explorer.exe when you do not replace the shell - the
desktop you see effectively IS explorer.exe...
Your requirement sounds like you need a custom shell:

Accessing my home network through the internet?

Is it possible to access my home network through the internet via my AirPort Express? I would like to have full access to my Mac Mini's hard drive from my MacBook while at work.

Yes. You will need to enable file sharing on your Mac Mini (via Sharing in System Preferences) and then you will need to port forward all your ports (since I don't know exactly what file sharing method you will be using) of your Mac Mini via the AirPort Utility.

Airport express connected to my existing network - Can I connect a device to the network through it's ethernet port?

Is it possible when my airport express is wirelessly connected to my existing network - to connect a device to the network through it's ethernet port or is it wireless only at that point?
I'm trying to connect my A/V Receiver in another room to my network without having to run a CAT5 cable all the way to the router. I'd rather be able to connect it to my airport express if it will work that way.

Is it possible when my airport express is wirelessly connected to my existing network - to connect a device to the network through it's ethernet port or is it wireless only at that point?
Yes.....IF
You have an AirPort Express 802.11"n" version configured to "join a wireless network" and you have enabled the option to "Enable Ethernet Clients"
Or
You have an AirPort Express 802.11"n" configured to "extend a wireless network" from another Apple "n" router, in which case the Ethernet port is enabled by default

Appletalk network through Linksys seems impossible to set up...

I wonder if anyone might have an idea why I seem unable to get an Appletalk network set up between my MDD G4 1.25 and my new iMac with Leopard?
I'm trying to establish an ethernet network through a Linksys Wireless-G 2.4 543 mbps router.
I've followed all the steps involved... I've set both computers to:
Appletalk on
Share printer in the security pane
Automatically configure the ethernet
I've loaded the printer driver in both computers.
But I've had no luck whatsoever with any of it.
I can't even get the network to show up in the Network Utility.
I can't get the printer to show up in the add new printer setup...
I've tried unplugging the router and changing the ethernet cable plug-ins.
It all sounds so easy in the instructions at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106658
Does this sound like a hardware problem?
I'm totally flummoxed....
Thanks for any ideas...

"Anyhow, I've turned on printer sharing, Appletalk, no-sleep with both machines on and the printer on... and still I can't get any sign of an Appletalk network showing up."
What sign are you looking for? I think you're being distracted by all this talk about Appletalk. You won't automatically see the disks of the other computers, nor will you automatically see the shared printer from the other computers. Once computers are on the network, which your are if, for example,you can browse the internet, then in order to see each other's hard disks you have to mount them.
The following describes 10.4; I don't know how much different it might be on 10.5. If I remember correctly, it was much the same in 10.3, but it's been a while.
On computer #1, in System Preferences, Sharing, it will tell you something like "Other computers on your local subnet can access your computer at ...", and some name will be in place of the ...
On computer #2, in the Finder's "Go" menu select "Connect to Server." Type in the name you saw in the preference pane on #1.
If the printer you want shared is on #1, then on #2 you have to go to the Printer Setup utility and look for the shared printer there. In my limited experience, it's not too hard to find a shared printer in the Printer Setup Utility.

Unable to connect to network through repeater

Hi
I Cannot join network through the wireless repeater. My Iphone 4 works fine next to the router but when I walk downstairs it disconnects. It can 'see' the repeater as the signal goes to full before disconnecting. I have tried resetting networks ect but this does not help. Everytime I put the password in it says 'unable to join network' but works fine if I go near the main router or switch the repeater off.
It used to work fine untill I got sky on demand. when I connected this through the repeater it seems to have kicked my phone out?? i have since removed the on demand but still cant get my iphone to work. My girlfriends Galaxy also doesn't get signal through the repeater either. Any help please

Sending video stream to another network through vpn

Hello,
Am christopher from TANZANIA (EAST AFRICAN COUNTRY).
Please help me.
we have our cable tv and we want to stream it to our another office in another region, where we have configured a VPN in this two offices using cisco router RV180. I have tried multicast IP but didn't work.
Please help me how do i send this video signal to another region with our VPN connection. the video is through/output in UDP.
Any advice please.

The problem is routing that multicast IP to another network through VPN, and am using RV180 CISCO ROUTER.

Need some advice on setting up network through distribution panel

We just moved into a new house with a distributed wiring panel and I currently have my wireless network up and running. Problem is, I also have ethernet jacks throughout the house that I would like to use for Internet connectivity (the panel didn't include a network module so they just dumped the cabling runs in there). I currently have a cheapo cable modem in the panel, with one ethernet port, and I ran it out to my jack where my Time Capsule is located, so Airport is working fine. Now I need to get some of those other ports working in the house so I can use them for wired connections if I need them.
I tried using an 8-port switch in the panel. and I get connectivity out to the jacks, but I can't connect to the Internet on our Macbooks. So, I'm guessing I would need to use a router in the panel instead. So my questions are ... Would my Airport network through the TC still work when connected through a router, or would I need to reconfigure a bunch of stuff? And do routers usually require a lot of setup, or are they pretty much PNP? I'm fairly new at this stuff and know about enough to get me into trouble. Thanks!

Hi Jimintexas,
My home is also wired with 37 data jacks and 32 video, with 3 distributed panels( w/16 port gigabit switches) in various areas. My cable modem is also in a different location than the airport. I found that instead of adding routers and such, that as long as I had 2 jacks in the same location, I could connect the cable modem ethernet port directly to the WAN port for the AEBS (TC in your case) by patching the jacks at the panel, and then I connected the LAN port back to any of the switches (that are all connected) through the second jack at the location. I don't know what your distribution panel setup is but chances are it is just 110 punchdowns with standard cable patches so this is fairly easy to accomplish.
Hope this helps,
Jamy

Can't see other computers on network through wireless/wired OK

Our wireless clients that connect through our AP541N cannot see other computers on the network. They can ping other computers by IP and host name and access the internet OK. Mapped network drives can be connected initially but are very unreliable and always end up disconnecting. Restarting the computer does not help. When these computers are wired they see the network as expected. Does anyone know why my wireless network would behave differently then the wired? The wired and wireless networks are on the same VLAN. The wireless clients are all Windows 7 systems. Thanks.

Hi Andy,
Thank you for posting. Go to Wireless Network Setup (VAPs) and see if Station Isolation is enabled for the SSID in question. From the Help menu:
When Station Isolation is disabled, wireless clients can communicate with one another normally by sending traffic through the AP.
When Station Isolation is enabled, the AP blocks communication between wireless clients on the same VAP. The AP still allows data traffic between its wireless clients and wired devices on the network, across a WDS link, and with other wireless clients associated with a different VAP.

Apple Tv can't connect to iTunes when on same network through Airport Express

Hello All,
Its very rare i need to resort to the community for help but this one has me in a corner.
I have a 2013 Airport Time Capsule (3TB not that it matters), and a 2nd Gen Airport Express, and 2 Apple TV's (3rd gens).
Time capsule in basement of a large home. I can connect to the time capsule with iPhone 6, 4s, iPad 4, macbook air (2013 model), MBP (2012), mostly without issue however from time to time the signal gets kind of weak and cuts off occasionally from the iPad. Slows down a bit for the phones also. Not a huge deal, this is why I bought the airport express.
The Apple TV's are in two bedrooms beside each other on the 2nd floor in my home (office and bedroom). The Airport Express i've tried in 3 different areas of the house (1- Main floor of home on top of fridge in kitchen, roughly 20 feet away from the time capsule through the floor, 2- Main floor at bottom of stairs heading up to 2nd floor and almost line of sight to doorways of the two bedrooms also 20 feet away from the time cause through the floor, 3- 2nd floor hardwired directly to one apple tv (2nd apple tv through double layer of drywall and 10 feet away.)
In any of these locations the Apple TV's randomly get this issue where they do not see my Mac Mini which is hardwired to the time capsule, and running iTunes with all my movies shows and music of course. It gives me an error "Apple TV cannot connect to (name of library) as it may not be on the same network, please ensure iTunes is updated to the most recent version, and ensure you have the latest updates for your apple tv."
On my MBP I was running Yosemite Dev Beta 8, which is fine if that doesn't work, but it did and still had this random issue.
On my Mac Mini i was still running Mavericks with current iTunes (11.4 i believe, now 12 beta).
I unplugged my airport Express from power, now everything is connecting to my time capsule and apple tv's stream fine mostly, however there are slow buffering issues and occasional wifi disconnects just due to 2 floors in-between and quite a distance also, among multiple wireless devices using the network.
My questions are (yea yea a novel i know),
1- If the airport express doesn't see any data going through it for a while, does it go into a sleep mode which might be causing this "iTunes not found" issue even though other devices are still able to see my shared library on my network?
2- If yes to above - how can i shut that off?
3- If no, then why is this happening?
Mac Mini specs, i5 2.5ghz, 16 gb ram, 120gb ssd, 500 gb hdd, 2 TB External USB 3 hdd, ethernet hardwired to time capsule.
Air Port Express is in extended network mode synced to the Time Capsule.
Other devices will connect fine to my iTunes library when the apple tv's will not.
Any help appreciated! Thanks!

I have seen suggestions that bonjour goes into sleep mode.. but Apple offers no info and no controls so whether it does or not is irrelevant.
I am not clear what Time Capsule you have.. 2013 was the change over.. so is it AC tall one.. or previous model, flat one. The picture in the airport utility will show you.
Extend wireless is always a poor way to do things.. can you run some ethernet cabling to a point on the first floor where you could plug in an express.. if so that is the ideal.. if no, then using EOP (homeplug) adapters might work,, but they are not 100% guaranteed to work so make sure you know the return policy.
My experience is with the one extend wireless link that i do have .. it is fragile. Mostly it works.. but i have spent a deal of time making it work.
eg.. I use short names and different names for both bands.. so i can force the connection.. I set fixed channels.. I use the right firmware.. even so at certain times.. (full moon, strong North Wind.. you know typical wireless).. it will decide it won't work.
NOTE.. only airport utility v5 is of use to show link speeds and how things are going.. v6 airport utility (toyland fisher price version) has link status as poor, good or excellent.. which is to say the least.. uninformative.
so here is the link in v6 ..
It says.. good.. yeah.. !!
And here is the info in v5 utility. It has a workmen utility feel to it with piles of info.
The link between the two routers is the top of the listing.. and tells me it is linked at 5ghz and is running at 60Mbps at both ends..
By trial and error I have found left to its own devices it will connect on 2.4ghz and will join at 6Mbps when it starts dropping out.. so by taking full manual control I can produce reasonable link speed and reasonable stability.. and in v5 utility I can tell what is going on.. none of this is easy or like it should work out of the box.

IPhone no longer connects to my computer over local network through apps

I've been trying to fix this for months. I've worked with technology and Apple computers for three years. I am by no means an expert but you can believe me when I say I've tried all the basics.
I first noticed the problem using FullControl. I liked to use this first thing in the morning. One morning it wouldn't connect, "Error: Connection error (22)." I hadn't updated or changed anything. I actually put my computer to sleep the night before using the app! I was on the local network. My computer was running the helper. My computer was showing up as a device in the app. But it would not connect. I figured something was wrong with the app.
So I opened up Splashtop 2. My iMac showed up in my list but with a satelite icon informing me it was not connecting on the local network. I was still on my wifi as was my computer. I used it earlier that week.
I checked out the support pages for both apps. I updated everything. I turned off, on, and checked the connections for my firewall. I turned off my security applications and followed guides to remedy blocks they might cause. Nothing worked.
I checked Apple discussions and found people having similar issues but no one had a fix. A few found success but nothing worked for me.
A few days later I went to use my Remote app. My iTunes Library showed up in the local devices but it would not connect, "Remote can't connect to your iTunes library. Check your network settings and try again." I checked. Tried again. "Could not find [my] Library." I went back to the devices and connected to my Apple TV 2 instantly. I tried connecting my iMac with the Apple TV and found no issues. Each communicated with the other fine. I tried to connect Remote to my iTunes again but it failed.
I verified and repaired my permissions. I thought the "SUID... ARDAgent.app... [permission] has been modified and will not be repaired" could've been the problem but Apple and these Discussions assure me that this is normal and not a problem.
I recently downloaded Air Playit and ran into the same problem. I set it up on my computer following the instructions. I opened the app. The app showed my computer as a "Computer on Local Network" but when I tried to connect to server, "Connect Server Failed: Cannot connect the server, check the IP, Port and try again." I did and it didn't connect.
Save for this new app, everything worked before. Nothing has worked since that morning FullContol failed (including the new app).
Is there an answer out there?!

Intego's VirusBarrier X6 was blocking my iPhone's connection.
I saw that the program was blocking attempts to connect and took the address off the Blocked list. I instantly connected through everything again. It turned out to be a major oversight and easy fix!
If anyone else is having similar issues, check your AntiVandal software and make sure your devices are not being blocked.

How do I set up my Windows 7 laptop to view computers on my home network through time capsule?

I have a mac connected to a Time Capsule. I am able to use my laptop to wirelessly connect to the internet (through the time capsule), but am unable to access files stored on the time capsule. I was able to do this with another laptop, but have no idea how. Can anyone help?

Load the airport utility onto the win7 computer and that will also load the required files to see the airport.. but you should be able to access it as a normal network drive..
In windows explorer simply type the ip address as normal.. ie \\ipaddress\sharename
Don't use homegroup if you expect anything else to work.

File sharing with Leopard through dial up modem on Performa 6400

There are some really important files that i need to get off my Macintosh Performa 6400 (running 8.6) but the only connection that my iMac G5 (running 10.5.4) and the performa share is the dial up modem. I can't get an internet connection on the performa since we have broadband and it does not have an ethernet port, so that's out of the question. Some of the files are too big to fit on a floppy and my iMac doesn't have a floppy drive anyways.
I turned on file sharing on both computers, but they don't see each other being as they're connected through the dial up modems. After having searched up and down Google with no answer, my question is: is there anyway i can file share through the dial up modem using the aforementioned configuration?
Since I'll only need to do this once, I don't want to have go out and buy something in order to get this to work.
Thank you for any and all help you guys may provide.

I realise that you didn't, originally, intend to spend anything but, if you have a spare PCI slot left in your 6400. I wonder if maybe installing a Keyspan USB PCI card would help. That way the 6400 could communicate direct with the G5 and save the hassle of removing its HD.
http://www.allmacshop.co.uk/proddetail/19184/KeyspanUSB_PCI_Card_2-Port_Mac_Win__UPCI-2/
The manufacturer's part number is UPCI-2.
I installed one of these in my PowerMac 6500/300. Turned to be one of my better decisions as I was then able then to import photos direct from my digital camera and all sorts.
Or there's this which is better still-
http://www.macheaven.co.uk/?page=proddetail&prod=1343
Check compatibility with your 6400 though as I don't have one of these so I don't know if it works or not. Don't see why it shouldn't though.
