PC54G Access Point half working

My ADSL Internet connection comes through the modem to a switch then to a desktop pc via lan which is also fitted with a PC54G wireless card. I have 2 laptops with 801.11g wireless cards, I can get a normal network, email and I can ping the modem from them and that is all. I cant ping the outside world or receive the Net, MSN messenger, ICQ etc. I have tried a few configurations without success.
What should I use, Access Point or Gateway?? Should I have bridged connections, if so which ones?? Anything else that might help

I think you must use a ACCESS Point
and you must enable DHCP client on your HOST PC
Some Internet connection dosnt support manual sharing of internet

List of routers/access points that work/don't work with new airport extreme

Lets try to put together a list of routers/access points that work with the integrated airport extreme in the new intel macs and 10.4.5 (or 10.4.4) The purpose is to determine what is needed to make this work.
1) only wireless g, 802.11b does not seem to have this problem, psp probably is not supported by most 802.11b cards so its probably disabled in that mode.
I'll start off.
imac dou core. ( 1 week old)
dlink 2100ap , wireless g , does not work, slow not paifully slow internet access, very degraded video/audio streaming over local network.

I'm afraid 11b is affected.
I have a D-Link DSL 604+ router, which is 11b only.
Wireless is very slow, I noticed it right away. I get the sawtooth readout in activity monitor's network section.
Also, after putting the iMac to sleep it cannot find my wifi network upon waking. I have to restart the system before it'll connect to my wifi network again.

Access point not work correctly

Hello everybody, I have a problem in my BlackBerry Passport. I can't turn on "access point" function,this function not work. Does this function work in the future OS updates?
P.S access point give your internet from the mobile network to your WiFi

Hotspot does work on all versions of BlackBerry 10 OS and all BB10 models. It is, however, controlled by your carrier. If it won't turn on you have one of several possible problems:
1) Your mobile data is off or not working.
2) You need to have Hotspot provisioned on your account by your carrier.

Stor.E access point stops working after a few seconds

Purchased a Stor.E Wireless Adapter and followed instructions but after turning the device on by connecting to USB power using supplies cables, WIFI access point disconnects after 4 or around seconds.
1. i connect the device to usb power
2. Power light blinks green and stays on
3. wireless light becomes green and stay on, turns off after a few seconds
Managed to connect to it using the mobile app a few times, while its on, but since the WIFI point disconnects, cannot use it.
Any thoughts ?

1. i connect the device to usb power
The Stor.e Wireless Adapter should be connected to mains power and the other end to the external HDD.
Then you could use the app to access the content wirelessly.

How to Setup WRITTEN as a wireless access point to work with WRITTEN

Hi,
I had a router WRITTEN which was not covering the whole space in my house. I was looking for a N wireless access point or a range extender.
The shop seller convinced me to buy WRITTEN saying that the Dual N will fix my problem.
well it did not. The reception in some locations is still poor.
the same reseller advised me to use the 350N as a wireless access point instead of buying one. The question is how to do it.
I am thinking about the following:
1- Have the WRITTEN installed next to the internet modem connect to the modem by cable
2- in another room have the WRITTEN (approx 20 meters away) not connected by a cable to the WRITTEN
3- When using the laptop in the weak reception area, I try to connect wirelessly to WRITTEN which should be also connected wirelessly to the WRITTEN
Would that be possible. I hope so since there is no way to have a cable connecting the 350N and 610N due to many reasons
appreciate your help in adance

I am sorry but the spelling checker repalced my router names to another word
the correct text is:

Can a single Access Point support both bridge mode and Access Point mode at the same time

Hi Guys
Does anyone know which access point can work in both bridge mode and AP mode ?
Cheers

Well what are you trying to cover. If its really a large outdoor area, then look at the mesh AP. Those require a WLC. Autonomous or stand alone ap can perform bridging on one radio and client access on another. You can also look at AP that support indoor mesh that also controlled by a wlc. If your putting APs outdoors, then look at the outdoor mesh.
Thanks,

RE: How to secure an access point signal.

Hi everyone,
I have difficulty making my access point wireless signal secure. My network setup is simple, Modem to Router to Homeplug 1st floor, (secure wireless signal),
2nd floor (secure signal). Problem when comes to 3rd floor, signal too weak, so I place Homeplug to Access Point. (wireless works well but not secured).
Tried calling D-link support but was told that I need to fix static IP address before things can work. What the **** is that? Was told many technical issue about sub-net different, etc. Lastly the setup disc don't work with a Mac. (HaHa).
Thank you all in advance for the solution.

How are you going to connect them? cat5 or coax?
cat5 instructions:
Can I use my wireless or an extra router along with the Verizon provided router?
coax instructions:
Can I get an ethernet connection in a room with only coax?

Silly doubt abt access-points and bridges

hi all i have read cisco doc wherein clients connecting to access-points and also where the cisco access-point is working like a bridge and still clients can connect to it .
then any specific reason why people generally connect clients to access-points.
i mean is there any benefit of either method over the other.
any help and guidance would be really helpful.
regards
sushil

In short, it is preferred to have users connect to access points.... 99% of the time. You can use a wireless bridge (that is associated to an AP) that is connected to a switch/hub to supply network connectivity to wired users off the switch/hub. There are also access points that can be used as a bridge for building point to point connectivity.
Look at the home users with wireless.... it allows then to move from place to place (as long as there is coverage) without having to be wired in.

Wireless LAN Controller not broadcasting network to Access points

Good Day Team,
I am working with a 2100 series WLC controller and 1100 series access point.
I noticed that the wireless lan controller is working. Also the access point is working.
The issue is that there is no internet connection on the access point.
What could be the error?
Kindly advice

Try do diagnose your problem following this steps:
1) Connect to the wireless network
2) Check your IP address with "ifconfig"
3) Check if your gateway is set correctly with "route -n"
4) Try to ping your gateway. Is it working?
5) Try to ping an internet IP like google: "ping 74.125.234.115"
6) Try to resolve names with "nslookup www.google.com" for example.
7) Try to traceroute to an IP or name on internet. Check the result to see the last hop you reached.
8) If you passed all those tests, try this: "telnet www.google.com 80"
If everything works, but not the test #8, your problem could be related to some proxy configuration.

SmartConnect fails when GPRS access point configur...

I am trying to configure SmartConnect to cycle between a Wi-Fi and a GPRS access point.
The GPRS access point allows only HTTP/HTTPS traffic through a proxy server (this is a limitation of my service package through the mobile operator; direct Internet connectivity is much more expensive).
When using an HTTP application (e.g. Opera, Gmail) directly with the GPRS access point, everything works fine.
However, if I use the application with the SmartConnect access point, the connection fails.
Just for testing, I replaced the GPRS access point with one that allows direct internet connectivity without a proxy server (at a much higher cost) - everything worked fine.
So, I concluded that this is a bug in SmartConnect - they didn't take into account the fact that the access point may work only through a proxy server, and maybe they do some kind of connectivity check that is not HTTP and that fails. I tried to look everywhere support contact information for Birdstep but couldn't find any.
Has anybody encountered this? Or does anyone have contact information for Birdstep's support? I am guessing the fix probably super-simple.
==============================================
Summary of my settings:
Device: Nokia E51
Access Points under Connection settings:
1 - "Home WLAN" - WiFi, my home WLAN network
2 - "IL Orange WAP" - GPRS with Proxy Server that allows HTTP/HTTPS to the Internet (and unlimited WAP)
3 - "IL Orange Internet" - GPRS without proxy server that allows direct Internet connectivity without limitations
SmartConnect configuration that doesn't work:
Priority 1: "Home WLAN"
Priority 2: "IL Orange WAP"
SmartConnect configuration that does work:
Priority 1: "Home WLAN"
Priority 2: "IL Orange Internet"
Does SmartConnect perform some connectivity check prior to "releasing" the connection to the applications?
===================================================

Just got this from Birdstep's support:
"SmartConnect is not using the proxy setting of the connection. This is known problem with SmartConnect. Currently there is no fix or workaround for it".
So that seems to be the end of it, for now at least.

Can't find my Airplay - using Airport Express as an Access Point

Hi,
i've a slight problem with my airport express. i build a network with an easybox 803 router as base and an airport express as an access point in the next room. the airport led shows me that is all fine (green light). but i can't find the airplay service. I suspect that my macbook connects to the base and not to the access point.
now i want to know: how can i config my mac or my airport express, so that i can find the airplay service
best regards and thx for your help

Solved.
I had likely the same problem. It was solved by replacing the home router internal connections with a real switch.
Many home routers will not properly multicast the required Airplay/Bonjour multicasts. Netgear and D-Link for instance does not work, although some ASUS routers work if you turn off IGMP snooping and fiddle with the firewall, but only with some firmware, so it is very iffy.
So, in my case, I connect Internet modem <-> router <-> switch <-> access points <-> devices
Works without any problem. Also the wired devices connect to the switch.
Do not connect any Airplay devices to the router!

Setting up wireless Cisco Access Points independently and network layout

Hello,
I am technician in a school. I have been asked to upgrade wireless system in school. Currently I am using VDSL2 30Mbps line. I am using E4200 Router, which is providing internet services. The school has 3 floors. On one floor I have this router which is further attached with 16 port gigabit unmanageable switch. The same router is providing wireless service on the same floor using Class C ip address. From the switch I have extended a cable and took it on to another (second floor), where I have got one more gigabit switch. From that switch I have connected one router using different subnet and further i have attached two access points for the entire floor, which is working ok. From the same switch I have extended one more cable up to third floor where I have connected one more access point. So, 3 access points on three floors, 2 switches and two router. This is the current network layout.
Now school have decided to go over to fiber. ISP is going to put Juniper router and going to create vlan and will configure access restrictions. School will have 100Mbps unlimited up and download speed. Its because of increase in number of students. School is still waiting for the router and configuration to be done.
I have got 4 cisco 1602i access points (AIR-SAP1602I-Z-K9). These access points are POE supported. I have got one 8 port POE switch also. When I got these 4 cisco I didnt get power adapters with them. First I want to ask, is this normal. Don't they usually come with power adapter. I know they are POE, but cisco doesn't send them with power adapters.
Second I want to ask, if these access points can work independent without WLAN controller. Or do i have to have WLAN controller.
As fiber is not up yet so, for the time being I have connected these access points with POE switch using Cat5E cable and then further connected the POE switch with normal gigabit switch, which is further conneted with router at this point.
Please tell me if I am doing it correctely. I will also be needing help with the configuration.
Can anyone tell me how to setup these access points independently for current situation to provide internet access. How to set them on different channels etc......
Also want to know if there is any software that can detect access points and can help me manage these access points.
I shall be thankful.

1130AG Access Point PoE Problem with Cat 3750G-24PS-E switch

I am having a problem on the PoE negotiation of Catalyst 3750G-24PS-E and 1130AG Access point. I used straight and cross cable for physical connection since by default the auto mdix per port of the switch is enabled/on. I used CLI, CNA and Web Device Manager on both devices to isolate and troubleshoot the problem but still the PoE negotiation on both devices won't work out. But when I used the access point into other switch (CE500 PoE Switch), the access point is working properly. Does anyone can help me to distinguish what the problem really is? The IOS Version of 3750G switch is 12.2(25) SEE2 and the 1130AG access point IOS Version is 12.3(8)JEA.

Hi Rob,
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I tried shut/no shut on the switchport many times. I saw that the switch grant power inline on the port but the port still can't/won't provide any power to boot up the access point.
Thanks,
Nelmar

Access points configuration

What is best practise to configure 10 access points? working on project in big warehouse.
Sent from Cisco Technical Support Android App

Hi,
You can use any option you like to get the access points to join the WLC.
If the access points are on the same subnet as the WLC then you can stay with basic layer 2 discovery method that what the AP will do is once it gets an IP address if will send a broadcast request on the same subnet to join a WLC and since there is a WLC on the same subnet it will reply back and the AP will be able to join the WLC.
If the access points are on a different subnet then the WLC you need to use a layer 3 discovery method so that the AP can learn the IP address of the WLC that is on a different subnet and send a unicast join request to the specifc IP address.
The options would be option 43 or DNS lockup.
DNS option.
