One device has Internet access through MHS291L, the other doesn't.

I have a MacBook Pro which is connected to my MHS291L by Wi-Fi, and it works great. I also have a Windows Vista PC connected using a Wi-Fi adapter, and it does not have Internet access. I got the Wi-Fi adapter about a week ago, and it was working for a while, but it has stopped. The Vista PC shows that it is connected to the Jetpack, in the list of wireless networks, but my browser is informing that I am not connected when I try to visit any website.
I thought it might be because both computers were using the same IP address, so I renewed the IP address on the Mac. No change. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting from the network on the Vista computer, but that didn't help, either.
What might the problem be? Thank you.

If your Vista PC is not receiving internet but the MacBook is then that means there is probably an issue with the WiFi adapter on the Vista PC.  I would try uninstalling and reinstalling it from the Device Manager.  This should refresh the hardware and driver connections and allow you to better communicate with the Jetpack.  Make sure you have your wireless password entered correctly and that you have a valid IP address (192.168.1.xxx).
A reset of the Jetpack may also be helpful here incase the Jetpack is suffering from a temporary problem.  There should be a reset button somewhere on the device that will restore it back to defaults for you.  Any time you perform a reset I suggest taking a moment to setup a custom wireless password.  I'd suggest creating your own password according to strong password security best practices that takes at least a few years to crack.

  • If I choose sync settings for my add-ons, laptop and android, will one device' s add-ons go on the other automatically?

    If I choose sync settings for my add-ons, between my Windows XP laptop and android phone, will one device' s add-ons go on the other automatically?
    For example, if i add a password manager add-on to my PC, will that same add-on go onto my phone? Or will i have to separately add it again to my phone?
    If I do have to add it separately, then what exactly IS the add-on syncing doing?

    hmmm... i have no idea what the "install.rdf file" of an extension) is? or how to check that?
    thanks!

  • How do I sync iMessages so that when I delete it on one device, it will delete it from the other devices?

    I have 3 devices all using the same iCloud account: iPhone 5, iPad 3, and MacBook Pro with Mt. Lion.  I want to be able to delete an iMessage on one device and have it automatically deleted from the other devices automatically instead of having to delete the message on all 3 devices.  Is this possible?  I want it to sync up just like an email account would sync up.  Thanks.

    You got the gist of it - imessage and email accounts have different supporting "underline". Even some of the mail accounts (POP) do not have that capability. Neither does imessage. What I did is made sure that I receive my imessages to one device only. I do not know if it will work for you. Good luck.

  • New SMTP server has SSL. One of two Ethernet networked Macs works, the other doesn't. Help!

    We changed from Optimum to Verizon FIOS today. We have two Macs connected by Ethernet. The Mini running Mavericks and Thunderbird 24.6 was able to set the outgoing server as smtp.verizon.net on port 465 with connection security SSL/TLS with no authentication and it works fine.
    The other Mac is an ancient G4 running 10.3.9 and TB 2.0.23 and it does not accept running without authentication.
    With optonline, we ran on port 25 with no authentication.
    I tried putting in the user name and pw we entered on verizon.net, and that doesn't work. I tried the user name and pw from our pop mailbox, and that doesn't work. BTW, the incoming mail is working fine on both computers.
    What's going on? How do we fix it?

    But I don't know what user name and password to enter. When I enter the username and password from my Verizon account on the 2nd linked computer, it does not recognize it. Does it have to be entered on both computers? What do we select on the 1st computer running Mavericks? Normal password? Then do we enter our Verizon username and password?

    Brent I would recommend reviewing the installation log files to the update that is failing to apply.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • Is there a difference between the LG EnV3 and the LG EnV3 VX9200 is this the same phone. the reason I ask is because one says it has internet access and the other one doesn't

    It the same phone but you don't have to have data on it if you don't want since they are older phones.  We had these phones without data as I didn't think they would be good for surfing the net compared to a smart phone.  Mary

  • I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
    So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
    Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

  • I am using a verizion jetpack to wireless connect to an airport express next i want to connect a Airport extreme wired from toe express to create a second private network that has internet access via the jetpack

    Thanks for the help after looking over your sugesstion I did some additional troubleshooting which i should have done in the beginning and heres what i found
    Airport express is joined to and existing wireless network and i have internet access....all good
    I set up my Airport Extreme as follows:
                        Connect using :ethernet
                  Ethernet Wan Port : automatic
                  Connetion Sharing : Share a public IP address
    Tcpip      Configue IPv4: Using DHCP
    DHCP                   Begin address: 172.16.22.200
                               Ending address:  172.16.22.254
    Wireless    Create a wireless network
                             Wireless network name Test1
                              wpa2 security
    This is needed due to set ip address of device on this private network did not address NAT
    Conneted Express ethernet port to Extreme wan port
    All wired devices have internet access and i get a double nat status which ignore
    however my wireless device will not connect.... sometimes they will they want
    any suggestions

    Here are sceeen shots of the Express

  • One Device has malfunctiond & WIndows does not Recognize

    Getting beyond Frustrated. Bought 2gb Nano today (noon) now 730 and I still have not been able to use it. I keep getting a message that says "One Device has malfunctiond & WIndows does not Recognize, Clickon this window". NO LUCK. I have reset, Reinstalled software, My Ipod is not showing up in my Itunes. I have also changed the power settings under device manager. HELP PLEASE

    As it is new it could be a hardware problem. Is it possible for you to try the iPod on another PC. If not I'd suggest that you:
    a) make sure the iPod is fully charged,
    b) use a different USB port (if your laptop has more than one).
    c) if you have any other USB devices connected (or a USB hub) disconnect all but the iPod.
    d) if none of the above work try apple's 5Rs.
    e) put the iPod into self-diagnostic mode (method for doing this varies between iPod types you'll need to use the apple website to find the right method for your iPod).
    Of course if you are close to an apple shop it may be easier for you to get them to check your iPod.

  • One of my sons has an ipad mini and the other a larger ipad.  The one using the mini needs a larger ipad for school, so they need to switch.  They want to do so without losing their individual app progress.  Can I simply switch the SIM cards?

    SIM card has nothing to do with your Apple ID or apps.
    IOS devices do not store anything on the SIM card.
    BAckup everything on the iPads.
    REstore tbe ipad from the backup of the other iPad.
    REpeat for the other one.

  • I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
    I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
    It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple.

    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
    No data will be lost.
