Outlook and FIOS wireless

I have some PC's and some wireless laptops in my home.
Pc's function properly (Outlook 2007), but the laptops will not send e-mail from Outlook. They do receive e-mail, though.
Verizon Support told me, a few days ago, that it was an Outlook issue and to call Microsoft.
Microsoft confirmed that I have repaired and updated my Office 2007 Suite.
Any suggestions?
BTW, the Verizon troubleshooter is of no help. The wizard is of no help.
I have given up on Technical Support.
Seems like the issue might be "port blocking"...

What server/port settings are you using on the laptops?

Time Capsule and FiOS wireless router

Can I connect the Time Capsule to my FiOS router and then disable the wifi feature on the FiOS router?

Are there any known issues with the TC in general, particularly from the wifi perspective?
TC is much better than it was.. make sure you keep it cool.. place it up from the bench on a couple of pencils.. that stuff about conductive rubber.. ignore it.. rubber in all its forms is an insulator and holds in heat. If it does start running really hot.. it has a fault and you should take it back.. Same with hard disk.. they occasionally go bad.. so backup to it.. fine.. storing files on it.. no don't do it.
Remember it is covered under your computer applecare.. so if you have any computer with extended applecare it will cover TC with certain conditions.. but that gives the TC effectively 3years warranty.. after that.. dispose of it and buy a new one.. the TC is not going to be reliable as the hard disk has been starting and stopping multiple times every day for 3years.. just don't trust them.
Wireless is ok.. I don't think it is particularly good range wise. Although Apple said how much better it was than previous Generations.. I have had all 4 now.. and performance in my experience was line ball between all of them. Apple design their routers to work very well with AEBS or AEx so if you want to extend wireless it is simple.. just it doesn't work with any other brand.. apple now reflecting a rather dark empire tendency.. they used to critize in others.
Clarification question...how do I backup my current files on the Lacie to the TC? Would that simply be connecting the two devices via USB and copying over?
Backing up TM files?? Not a good idea.. TM works differently on local disks and network disks.. and TC is best left to do its own stuff. If you mean moving actual file storage.. don't. The TC is not a file store.. it is a backup target.. TC has no way to back itself up.. and TM cannot backup a network drive .. so you would have to buy 3rd party software anyway.
Also USB on the TC is purely for printer and USB connected disk.. but you cannot directly copy from one to the other.. it would have to copy over network to the computer and then back to the TC.. it will be 2x to 4x faster if you do want to copy files to use Lacie plugged into the computer.. and copy to the TC. At least files are only going one way.

How do I set up a Apple TC with a Verizon FIOS wireless modem model Actiontec 424wi F series. Does the wifi in the modem have to be shut off and will it effect the FIOS tv?

How do I set up an Apple TC with a Verizon FIOS wireless modem model MI424wr F. Does the wifi have to be turned off in the modem and then bridge it to the TC? Will FIOS tv be effected?

Your first call should be to Verizon support to ask them if you turn off the wireless on the Actiontec router....will it affect any of the features/functions of the FIOS system?
If yes, then it would be best to leave the Actiontec router "as is" and connect the Time Capsule using Ethernet in Bridge Mode as a back up device only (wireless is turned off on the Time Capsule).
If you want to use the dual band (and likely much faster) wireless capability of the Time Capsule, then you should turn off the wireless on the Actiontec device to help prevent wireless interference effects that will likely occur when two wireless routers are in close proximity to each other.
Again, the Time Capsule would be connected to the Actiontec router using an Ethernet connection from one of the LAN <-> ports on the Actiontec router to the WAN port (circle icon) on the Time Capsule. Configure the Time Capsule in Bridge Mode as well in this type of configuration.
Bottom line....what Verizon says will pretty much dictate how you can set up the TIme Capsule.

I have been a Verizon Wireless and FIOS customer for as long as I can remember

I have been a Verizon Wireless and FIOS customer for as long as I can remember. The last 2 months has been the worst customer service experience I have ever had. I own a Samsung Galaxy S4 that I purchased through the Verizon trade-up program. Initially I thought this program was a great idea for folks into technical gadgets to trade-up to the next best phone on the market. Over the last month I have called customer service numerous times regarding dropped calls, no service, and most recently my Samsung S4 will not send or receive texts within 20minutes, it will not operate effectively with the limited apps I have on the phone and I must reset the phone 5-8 times per day to make a call. I called Verizon Wireless customer service multiple times. The last call revealed an error within the software that is not yet fixable for weeks or maybe months according to the technical advisor. Like many other customers my phone is the lifeline to my world outside of work and paying a premium for a service is more than affordable as my lifeline. To date Verizon will not honor a warranty on this phone (which is within warranty) and it took a similar act of congress to get the truth from a willing tech. This is terrible and beyond disappointment. I just ordered new service from the **** pile called AT&T and I hope that in the smallest regard I receive better service from them than I have experienced from Verizon in the last 2 months. I purchased a phone, I expect it to work and if it doesn’t I expect you to honor your promise of service. You failed. Want to make it right? Give me a call!

Macbook Fios Wireless Connection Issues

Hi everyone. All of a sudden today my Macbook is having issues connecting to my Verizon Fios Wireless Internet. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or is aware of any problems with compatibility or something. Any tips or advice? Thanks!

Finally got an answer! Thanks to all the folks I talked to, one of them taught me a little trick that I wanted to share. What worked was renaming the router, then making the macbook connect to it as if it was a new network - it connected and stayed online. Then renaming the router back and connecting to it again as it were a new network and it connected and has stayed connected. Hope this works for anyone else having this issue!

Fios Quantum VS Fios Wireless

I'm planning to switch to Fios double play (50/50 internet) and i have quesiton choosing the modem. I'm planning to use my own wireless modem (have powerful AC netgear router) . With this in mind, will i be good with Fios wireless router?
Fios quantum gateway, the only difference between this 2 is the wirless speed (dual band) Is this is correct ? Is there are any other benefit to with quantum gateway for my either internet or tv services?

DigitalIP wrote:
And yeah, FIOS is accessed via a modem built into the router
That's incorrect. The MI424-WR and the G1100 are MOCA (ethernet over coax) capable routers. They are not a modem/router. Just because it connects to coax, does not make it a modem. People forget that the original ethernet implementation ran over coax and did not use modems.

WRT54G & FIOS Wireless Router Used Together - POSSIBLE???

Hello guys, I pretty much drew a picture of what I wanted to do so hopefully you guys will understand me much easier. Sorry, I am new here, so I like to introduce myself, I'm Mo. I'm pretty good with computer but learining more and more about networking. I just recently got FIOS in my house. It comes with a wireless router but problem w/ my basement is that I cannot get good connection on the 3rd floor. So my speed is really really slow.
I wanted to install the Linksys router to help that. Am I able to hook up my linksys router and use it as a "hotspot" for my 3rd floor? I get the connection from the Verizon router then goes into the 16 port switch I have installed, which sents wired connection to each rooms of the house. So I took my linksys router and plugged into one of those rooms and tried to get connection from the switch but didn't work.
Is there a way of doing this? Here's a picture I drew up. Thank you!

Yes, it should be possible to do what you have described. However, we need more information.
Please connnect your computer, by ethernet cable, directly to your FIOS wireless router. Verify that you have a properly working Internet connnection. Then do the following:
Go to "Start" > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
A black DOS box will appear. Type in "ipconfig /all" (with no quotes), then hit the Enter key. Post all the results.
Also please state the make and exact model number of your FIOS wireless router.

My ical is not populating after i reinstalled my operating system - my Outlook 2011 is ok but I now want to sink my iphone 4 with my outlook and i presume i need ical to be populated for this

Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Where did you acquire this iPhone?
What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

Airport Express Stopped Working when I switched to FIOS wireless router

AirPort Express worked for several years with Linksys router. When I upgraded to FIOS service, it came with a new wireless router. I have two Macs (iMac-G5 and MacBook 2.0 GHz) and work-supplied Lenovo T-61. Network is set up with WPA2 with 23-character-long pass phrase. AE (802.11B/G) will not connect to network. I can reset it to factory defaults and Airport Utility will find it. I then change the wireless interface on iMac to match the default network and I can configure the AE. When I apply the configuration changes, the AE reboots and never comes on-line. It stays in either the blinking orange pattern or in the alternate between orange and green pattern.
I have tried setting the AE up manually as well as "automatically" and have not had any success. I was a network engineer for over 10 years, so I have lots of experience configuring IP routing and switching. The log files on the FIOS router do not show any attempts by the AE to connect to my LAN.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Suspecting a problem with the security key, I began to experiment with different security settings. My first attempt was to change the security setting on the Verizon router from WPA2 to WPA. I did not change the key. When I did, I was able to configure the AirPort Express and then get the Airport Express to reboot and establish wireless communications with the FIOS router. Again, the only change I made was to switch the encryption type on the FIOS router from WPA2 to WPA. I have no idea why the AirPort Express would not properly join the network when the main wireless access point (the FIOS router) was using WPA2 security.

Connect hp photosmart plus b209 printer to verizon fios wireless router

Having trouble connecting HP Photosmart Plus B209 printer to verizon fios wireless router in order to access printer via home wireless network. The WPS (push button) connection option is not available on the current software version of router (VERIZON M1424WR rev.1 (Mfg. ACTIONTEC)). So, need to know how to connect via the PIN option.
Normally, to connect a wireless device (like this HP printer) to the network, the device would input the router's security pin (e.g. WEP key). But I can't figure out how to input the router's WEP key via the printers face screen. And, after talking to Verizon, there is no provision to enter the printer's pin within the router's control setup online.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

How do I get my deleted emails to go to the deleted items in Outlook and not the archived folder?

How do I get my deleted emails to go to the deleted items in Outlook and not the archived folder?

Who is the email account provider?
With an Apple iCloud account, there is a preference setting with the account settings on the iPhone to archive messages - save deleted messages in your Archive folder.
I believe the same is available with a Gmail account.

Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated by itself and now outlook and address book have each over 340,000. What should I do?

Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated entries and have now 340,000. I reinstalled microsoft office and, thus, outlook, and reinstalled mac OS X system and applications. While I managed to delete outlook contacts so that I can re-sync with my blackberry, the contacts at Mac Address Book were not deleted and still have over 340,000 entries. I do not mind deleting all contacts since I have back up, but I have not been able to delete them. Also, when I go at Address Book and try to delete or merge duplicated entries, the system takes forever and never ends because of such large amount of entries. Worse, when I do so I run out of RAM memory.
My Macbook pro is just 2 months old.
What should I do? Is there a way to delete my Mac Address Book without having the problem above?
Many thanks
Regis

No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

You need to power off the modem for 15-30 seconds, then power back up and then connect. The modem is remembering the last connection (your friend).

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time?

I've been having the same issue, but have just discovered something on my own that hasn't been pointed out in any of the forums I've visited. In what I thought would be a vain attempt to help myself, I went to System Preferences, Users & Groups, and then clicked on Login Items. I discovered that one of the Items that was listed to open automatically upon login was iTunes Helper and that there was an exclamation point beside it indicating that it was incompatible. I simply deleted that item and now I don't have the situation you described and my wireless is connected. Hope this helps!
