No MAC No WiFi Broadcast!

I have 5 Linksys WAP54GX Access Points. We run a large network with Cisco Catalyst 3560 PoE swithces at each location to run our IP phones. When we configure the access points to work on the switch the wireless won't boradcast (doesn't light up on the AP) and from the switch you cannot see the AP's MAC nor will it pass packets although you can see that the port is UP/UP.
Of the five AP's one works. The serial numbers are so close I doubt it's a bad batch. The one that works lights up wireless and passes packets. When plugged into a normal non-PoE switch, and also when plugged into the laptop they broadcast a perfect wireless signal. Had found somewhere on the net where it said to upgrade the AP's firmware to 1.16 (adds QoS) which didn't change anything.
We tried to get help from Linksys through live chat and the support tech. disconnected after they decided our problem wasn't easy enough for them so solve in a couple minutes. We tried changing the port on the switch as straight through, trunked(normal), and without power. Has anyone heard of this or have any ideas on how to fix this?

By mentioning that the wireless doesnt show UP, you mean to say the AP powers up with Radio interface signalling down???. If so, the problem should be incompatible power between the AP and the switch. The Ap can be powered by several means.
Ensure that the switch connected to is capable of providing full power for the Ap's radio to be up.

LaserJet Pro 200 Color M251nw : Cannot find its WiFi broadcast signal

I have a unique problem. I have a PC which is connected to my router via ethernet cable. I also have an iMac which is connected to the network wirelessly. I have a LaserJet Pro 200 M251nw connected to my router via ethernet cable.
I was able to print from my iMac by selecting the printer network and printing, and then switching back to my router to access the internet.
I use VMWare on my iMac in order to use Wordperfect 12. I was printing fine from Wordperfect until there was a power outage.
Nothing was damaged, but now I cannot get the WiFi broadcast from my printer any more. I cannot print from my iMac, my iPad or anything. I am confused as to the wireless direct printing and wireless printing. I am trying to figure out how to get my printer to broadcast its WiFi signal.
I am no where near technically inclined and I cannot figure this out. I did try to restore the defaults on the printer, but with every forum I have visited, I am getting more and more confused.
Can someone help me resolve this issue. If you need any further information, I will gladly provide.
I am in a desperate situation. My work demands a printer, and right now I have no means of being able to deliver.

Welcome to the HP Forums DominoDiva,
I see by your post that you are unable to print over the network through the Ethernet connection.
I can help you with this issue.
Wireless Direct is to connect directly to the printer's network and be able to print.
Wifi is to connect over the wireless network. You can access the internet at the same time and still be able to print.
Since you are connecting the printer with a Ethernet cable to the router the Wifi is automatically turned off.
You can only use one or the other.
With the Ethernet cable still connected to the router, print a configuration page to see if the printer is getting a valid IP address from the router.
Printing a Configuration Report.
Select Method one.
If not, power cycle the router and try another port on the router.
If you have a valid IP address for the printer then try and access the Embedded Web Server for the printer. If it connects then the printer and the computer are connected.
Type the IP address into your web browser's address bar. (Safari)
Click the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences.
Click Printers & Scanners, then click the + sign.
Select the printer from the list. (make sure the printer listed beside use: shows proper the printer name and not Airprint) Click on the add button. (you might have to click on the dropdown to select your printer)
Test the printer.
If you are having network issues, then add the printer through the IP Protocal.
After clicking the + button, select the IP icon across the top, type in the printer's IP address, select jet direct below and then Apply.
Test the printer on Mac platform to verify it isn't the printer or a hardware issue.
Reinstall the printer in the VMWare if you are still having issues.
You might need to contact the VMWare manufacturer for any possible issues or assistance.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

What wifi broadcaster do I need?

I am now SHARING my comcast internet from my 10,1 iMac with my iPad Air. I must keep the iMac running to do this. I desire to stop this and buy, what I would call a WiFi broadcaster, so I can shut down the iMac and use as needed.
What price should I pay for a home wifi broadcaster and what is a reliable Mac compatible brand? The cheaper the better, if I can get away w it.

At the time, it was a Netgear (which has been discontinued); I no longer have it because I switched ISPs and my new one requires me to have one of their modem/router combinations, so I sold the Netgear which was the best router I had! You can look at this page and compare/check any on this page:
http://www.netgear.com/home/products/networking/wifi-routers/
Personally, I'd probably try this one:

How do I share my Mac's Wifi Internet with my xbox (connected through Ethernet) in 10.8 Mountain Lion?

I am trying to use my MAC's wifi connection for my Xbox 360 using the Ethernet Cable. I've done it in the past in an earlier version of OSX which I saved the settings in a text file for later use... those settings do not work.
First Question: Do I use a Regular or Crossover Ethernet Cable?
Second Question: How do I get it to work?
I've tried all the 10.7 tutorials I could find (couldn't find any 10.8) as well as older ones but none seem to do the trick.
I have turned on Internet Sharing and Disable Little Snitch while testing, OSX Firewall is Disabled.
I tried Automatic Settings and also Manual ones from the tutorials...
Thanks for any help!

Mac Mini - Wifi Issue - Not Finding Established Network

Purchased and tried to setup a late 2012 Mac Mini (2.3 Quad-Core).
Current Wifi Setup
- Cable Modem into Airport Extreme.
- Airport Extreme (Base) is pushing to (2) Airport Expresses.
- (1) of the (2) Airport Expresses is underneath the desk where the Mac Mini is located.
- The devices currently on the network include: (1) MacBook, (1) Apple TV, (2) iPads and (2) iPhones. Everything is connected to the network and running properly.
Issue
One of the first things I attempted to do when I started up the computer, was join my home network. I searched for the network, found it and entered in the password. The Mac mini would not accept my password (the password is correct), claiming either password was incorrect or the connection timed out. I went to the Airport Utility and noticed the Mac mini was not locating/finding the Airport Extreme (Base), but was attempting to connect to the Airport Express underneath the desk. An important note the Mac Mini and the Airport Extreme are approximately 20 feet apart.
Here are some the methods I used to attempt a fix:
I turned off the Mac Mini Wifi and reset all (3) routers.
I updated the firmware of all (3) routers, reset them again.
I updated the OSX to 10.8.2
I ended up loading the Airport Utility on my Ipad and taking it back to where the Mac mini was located. From the attached picture, you can see on the bottom the Ipad correctly showing the Network and the on top show Mac Mini still searching for the Network.
I ended up hooking the Mac mini though Ethernet using the Airport Express underneath the desk, which is a fix however that an issue if the wifi is not working.
I’m currently at work and will have a chance to work on the computer this evening, does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this issue?
Thank you in advance.

Move a document from an iPad to a Mac without WiFi access?

Any way to move a document from an iPad to a Mac without WiFi access?
The GoFlex Satellite and the Hypershop iFlashDisk seem to only allow document transfer documents from the Mac to the device, not vice versa.
Any experience with other methods?
Thanks
Ji

That's great news!
I don't yet own iFlashDisk, but was considering - after I discovered GoFlex Satellite would not support iPad to Mac transfers.
I'm still investigating the DiskAid & FileApp Pro - will undoubtedly give them a try to see how it works.
Thanks
Jim

Mountain Lion on Mac Mini - WiFi unstable for Internet Sharing

I have a Mac Mini Mid 2010 MC270LL/A previously on 10.6.8 and everything worked fine.
I have it plugged into a Plasma TV via HDMI and network via CAT6, but it also doubles as a WiFi access point via Internet Sharing.
Previously WiFi was secured via WEP, I don't recall if 10.6.8 had anything stronger, most likely not, otherwise I would have gone WPA2.
I have now done a clean install of 10.8. ie erase hard drive, boot from USB and lay down a clean install of Mountain Lion.
Software update downloaded a new Firmware, which has also been applied and rebooted.
Now I've set-up Internet Sharing, used same SSID (maybe should have picked a new one in hind-sight), but secured via WPA2 - the only option.
Previously my Macbook Air 13" MC965LL/A, had undergone the same clean install treatment via wipe, then boot from USB and install 10.8.
The Wifi worked flawlessly with Macbook Air on 10.8 connecting to Mac Mini on 10.6.8 (Secured via WEP), no drop outs, connected even after sleep.
Even the power nap feature worked really well, I was impressed that when I open the lid on the Macbook Air, I had emails already waiting for me.
Now with the Mac Mini on 10.8, it's a really sad state, constant WiFi dropouts, my File Sharing disappears, Screen Sharing stops, it's a real pain.
I'm hoping it's not the new firmware, I guess I'll find out when I restore to 10.6.8 and see how it goes.
Anyone else have issues with Mac Mini WiFi on 10.8 ?

SUPER SIMPLE DUMB Question about hard-wired desktop mac and wifi for iPhone

Sorry if this has been already answered a million times. I have a desktop mac with a cable modem ethernet internet connection. I want to leave this hard-wired and setup a wifi network for a laptop or iPhone. What's the cheapest easiest way to do this?? I've never done anything wireless before.

Could I just somehow split the feed from the the cable modem or ethernet cable and route part of it into an AirPort express??
Unfortunately, no. This would create "confusion" for the modem as it is only expecting a single device to be connected to it. To be able to support both wired & wireless clients, you would need an Internet router with a built-in Ethernet switch, like the AirPort Extreme Base Station. If cost is an issue, you do NOT have to use an Apple router. There are a number of other vendors, like Belkin, D-Link, Linksys, & Netgear, to name a few, that offer similar models.

Lately my finder closes when I select a shared devices and I can no longer connect to other macs. Wifi working, TC okay except in finder. Mac Pro running 10.8.5

Lately my finder has been closing when I select a shared device such as another mac, a printer, or the time capsule. My WiFi connection is working - I can can still backup to the TC and use my wireless printer, but I just can't access them by clicking on them in the finder window. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks for your help
I made no changes to the mini or the server.
The router was shut down then on restart the new (replaced modem) was configured by using another mac on the network (not the file server)
Once the router and modem were online again, other macs running 9.2 were accessing the file server as usual. The mini was not.
I had been working on a file that resides on the server. I was not warned that the router was going to be shut down. When I saved the file I got the beach ball then error message.
It'll be next week before I'm in the office agin. I'll report back then. Thanks

Mac Mini Wifi went from really bad to impossibly slow with Mavericks

Is there anything I can do? I really need to use WiFi given my location. My Lenovo Laptop gets about 15 MBPS with speedtest.net but my Mac Mini in the exact same location barely gets 1 MBPS and that's after timing out about 3 times. This is completely unusable! HELP!
Note, I am not using anything bluetooth and I have a wireless USB mouse and a cabled USB keyboard. I even turned bluetooth off. THe USB mouse and keyboard I regularly use with my Lenovo and they don't cause it problems.
I use this as a development machine (XCode) for iOS development and do a tiny bit of sound recording with Garage Band, otherwise it gets very little use. I recently upgraded it to Mavericks.
Are there any diagnostics I can use or anything I can do to improve my WiFi?
TIA

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them; in that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate. Any change?
Run Software Update and install all available updates for OS X or your computer's firmware. Any change?
If possible, connect to your router with an Ethernet cable and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?
Are any other devices on the network, and if so, are they the same?
If you can connect to more than one network, are they all the same?
Are all network applications affected, or only some? If only some, which ones?
Is networking always the same, or is the problem intermittent?
Disconnect all other devices from the network. Any change?
Boot in safe mode and test. Any difference?
Boot into Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. Any difference?
If possible, turn off Bluetooth and disconnect any USB 3 devices. Any difference?

Mac mini wifi issues

Had my Ipad mini for about a week. At first, the internet connection over my Airport/time capsule( which I bought a couple months ago, so it should be the newest generation) appeared to be fine although, I noticed that the signal bar was always a single to double bar (if that's how it is called). Now, from time to time it even fails to connect.
I am now in my living room in front of my mac mini set, which is itself connected to the internet over Airport/time capsule. The Airport is about 20 meters (abt 65 ft) away. The Wifi signal of my mac mini shows full capacity. My Ipad mini signal bar...it just says" iPad". While (when) connected I also have issues with iPad's ITune Wi-Fi sync. Connected by cable, checked the sync over wifi, removed the cable and Ipad disappeared from the Itune screen. I reset the Ipad, connected and did the whole procedure with Itunes and the iPad icon sticked to the itunes screen for a while but after about an hour disappeared again.
Now the ipad won't even connect.
When this thing works, it is a wonderful item. When it doesn't, it is a source of frustration. Can anyone help to solve this connection problem (resetting won't work) ?
thank you.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Can I import photos from iPad to Mac using WiFi?

I know I can import photos from the iPad to the Mac using the USB cable, and importing them into iPhoto. But is it possible to do this without plugging in the iPad - i.e. with WiFi? I couldn't find a way to make it work.
Better still, would it be possible to automatically 'sync' photos taken on the iPad to the Mac using iCloud, without also having photos from the Mac going back to the iPad? My iPhoto archive is now quite large, and I don't want it on the iPad.
Or are there any other approaches?
I really want to be able to use the iPad to regularly "empty" my camera while travelling, and have the iPad transfer the pictures to my main photo archive (iPhoto on the Mac) whenever it gets a chance. If this can happen automatically, that is best. Manually initiating it via WiFi is next best. Mnually initiating it via a USB cable is third best - still not difficult, but more steps.

Paul Fryer wrote:
Can anybody confirm this one way or the other?
If you have 800 photos on the iPad in the Photo Stream, those 800 photos will appear in the Photo Stream in iPhoto. However, if you have 7000 photos in albums in iPhoto, they will not appear in the Photo Stream on the iPad unless you place the photos into the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is its own album in iPhoto and your already imported photos in iPhoto will not appear in there unless you add them to the photo stream.
Look at one of the WiFi photo transfer apps such as WiFi Transfer App. You can send the iPad photos to your Mac using Safari on the Mac and then Imprt them to iPhoto as you see fit. You cannot send the photos directly into iPhoto with these apps.

Mac Mini WIFI won't connect in 10.6

Hi I have a 2008 Mac mini. I got Snow Leapord and Installed it on my computer soon after it cam out, but there was one problem- it won't connect to WIFI. Other computers work fine in the same room, and my own computer works fine when running windows, but won't connect in 10.6. I have dongraded (or in my case upgraded) to 10.5.8 but am missing some of the fetures of 10.6, is there anyone else with this problem that has found a solution?

Hi Adam,
There's not really anything you can do to reset the chip. What sort of wireless encryption is deployed at your place of work? Is it 802.1x or some other enterprise level security? I've definitely seen some "wonky" things with 802.1x and Snow Leopard, it's what is deployed here at the university I work at and support. If it's something more basic like WPA or WPA/2 or worse... WEP then you can try:
Deleting the saved wireless network location
Creating a new network location
Removing any keychains associated with your credentials for the network
There are ways to "reset" the network software but it's pretty invasive and that's only a last resort. The fact that it works at another location just fine would tell me that there's no hardware/software problem.

No MAC No WiFi Broadcast!
