Please help me set up a WDS with relay

I am attempting to create a WDS with 5 Airport Express units with the main station being connected to a wired router (will this slow things down?) I used the Airport Utility to designate the main station in WDS and then scanned for another station that I set up as remote. Everything works fines at this point.
Next I selected another station as a relay and then selected the main station and the other ones which I want to act as remotes from the relay (not sure if I should include the remote that I already have set up off the main station as also a remote to the relay) But regardless this is when I get the message that I should not have DHCP and NAT enabled and that I should deselect the "Distribute IP Addresses" option which didn't come up when I set up the first remote from the main. I tried leaving these options both on or off but either way the relay didn't connect to the main however the remotes connected the the relay. (I have double checked that I have the main station for the relay selected properly.
I was confused that you are to enter a network name and password for the relay because I thought it would it would automatically be changed to the main networks names and password. (Maybe it would have if I had it working right) Since it didn't I attempted entering in the main network name and password but it didn't help. A relay in WDS doesn't create another network name correct? Computers can also connect to a relay? I also thought it was strange that when I was scanning for the stations that the MAC address would come up but the name would be listed as "unknown" but am not sure if that is a big deal. One other issue I was experiencing was that my PMG5 couldn't connect to another station after already being connected to one for some unkown reason but luckily I have a PB to work with that had no trouble accessing the different stations to then attempt to configure as I have described. I also wonder if it woud be better to kepp the PMG5 wired from the wired router and then also connect the Main Airport Express to it. If anyone can provide any advice it will be greatly appreciated! Thanks a million!

Sorry, would love to go into fine detail about this but I'm a little tired and frustrated at this point.
I'm basically having the same problem as robosapien. I just want to create this simple configuration :-
AirPort Extreme Base Station (main) <--> AirPort Express (relay) <--> Airport Express (remote)
In following various instruction manuals, common sense and logical experimentation I'm simply failing to get it to work. I've assigned MAC addresses, configured manually and with the set-up assistants but I'm begining to feel that the "multiple" configuration adjustments that happen when setting up a WDS network are somehow cancelling things out.
Here are a few things that are confusing me.
1) It appears I have set things up correctly in a single room environment with MAC addresses in the "right" boxes, main/relay/remote WDS settings assigned correctly and green lights on the 2 Express units. I then move Express 1 (relay) to another room and retain green light status. I then move Express 2 (remote) to it's intended location - another building, but with only 2 walls and 25ft between Express's - but I only get the flashing orange LED. I return to Express 1 and that too is flashing orange, as if Express 2 has messed up it's function when it was powered up. The network has fallen down.
2) When experimenting with configuring each station I don't understand why a single remote base station is in a mode classed as "Create a Wireless Network" as opposed to "Join an existing Wireless Network", but that second option disables access to WDS settings, so I'll hazard a guess that is used for bridging.
I'm sure it's probably all about the order in which you set up the base stations
and which base station holds which MAC addresses, but I've exhausted the logical combinations.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • 8330 Curve. Please help me set up to sync with Google Calendar.

    Please help.  I have a new Curve.  I spent forever getting Google Calendar loaded up with my LIFE, and now I cannot seem to get the two to sync consistently.  Would someone please simplify this for me (talk to me like I am 8) and rescue me from the panic I am in?
    I need Google Calendar to sync (both ways) with my BB.  Since I can only find a way to set two different sounding alarms on the BB, I also need to be able to have Google Calendar send e-mail alerts (because I can use a different alarm tone) and SMS (another tone) for some events.
    I had some of this working, and all of a sudden, some events are out of "sync" by a day.  (ie.  it says they are set for a Thursday, recurrring ,but they show up on Wednesday on Google).  Also, many events are not syncing from Google Cal to BB. 
    Following some of the information I read here, I re-set my Calendar Sync, re-loaded Google Sync.  I now have 3 entries in my calendar, not 823.   It would appear that most of what I need still exists in my desktop Google Calendar.  Please help me get these appointments back on to my BB!!
    Thank you.
    b

    First, you need a Google account.  If you don't have one, get it here:
    https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageAccount
    Second, get Google sync here:

    We've seen this bug on machines running IE6 with a certain security patch (I forget its number). There's a thread in the Metalink reports forum about it. It appears to be somewhat tied to another problem where IE runs the report twice (you can see that in Showjobs. You're seeing the problem in 6i; I believe it persists in 9i.
    The workarounds are (1) set Acrobat so it doesn't open within IE or (2) switch to a different browser, like Netscape. For workaround 1, Start Acrobat Reader, Choose File -> Preferences -> General, Uncheck Web Browser Integration
    There's some evidence that it occurs more often with urls that include single quote characters. I think it's worse with XP, but I don't have any proof.
    If you check Adobe's site, you will see this isn't just an Oracle Reports problem. I think we're waiting for Microsoft on this one, so don't hold your breath for a quick fix.

  • Please help me creating a new listener with different port#.

    I have two instances in a server. both have different homes. I want to create a seperate listener for the second one i created.
    But that is not happening.
    here i tried to give name from LISTENER TO LISTENER1 & Port# from 1521 to 1524.
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
    (ORACLE_HOME = /apps2/oracle)
    (PROGRAM = extproc)
    LISTENER1 =
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = aixth53)(PORT = 1524))
    When I check lsnrctl status with LISTENER1 , it still shows the other instance home with port#: 1521
    Please help me creating a new listener with different port#.
    Thanks,

    It just forks a process or a thread, and that's it.And the listener is a single point of failure. Listener goes down, you can't connect to the db. That's why you need two listeners.If listener one goes down, then listener two goes down for exact same reason since it is a single executable file.I'm not playing tit-for-tat with you. Fact is, there are situations where people who are not you might want to use more than one listener.Some folks might want to jab a sharp pencil into their eye, too.
    Just because you can do something, it does not necessarily mean it should be done.

  • I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

    I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. The mobile carrier signal as well as WIFI suddenly drops zero and are then restored automatically. Sometimes i cannot conenct to WIFI even standing infront of WIFI router. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

    Update: my phone's connecting to the WiFi again. I don't know what did the trick. I did nothing since reinstalling the software. It hadn't worked then, it is now. I tried connecting to my dad's phone's hotspot( he uses a Moto G), and it worked. I then tried connecting to the WiFi at a friend's house, and when I came back home, my phone was able to connect to my WiFi! Is it of any significance that my friend's router doesn't require a password? My issue has been resolved( for now; I hope I'm not counting my chickens before they've hatched). For anyone facing a similar issue, I suggest you try everything I did:
    1. Turn your router off for a minimum of 30 seconds, turn it back on and try connecting.
    2. Click on the WiFi network you are connected to, scroll to the bottom, tap "Renew Lease".
    3. Do a soft and hard reset.
    4. Reset network settings.
    5. Back your data up, erase all content from settings menu, restore from backup.
    6. Reinstall your software( put it in recovery mode).
    I am not sure which of the above worked for me. Make sure you try everything. If none of the above works, take it to a genius bar or an authorised service provider. Good luck! :)

  • Set up a WDS with Express an DLink

    Is it possible to set up a WDS with AP Express and Dlink 614+ or you need to use only apple products for that?
    I would like to use DLink as an extra antenna for my AP Express.
    KR

    It is not possible to use any D-Link product in an Apple WDS, since none of D-Link's products support Apple's implementation of a WDS.
    If you are in the market to buy a non Apple wireless router, get a Linksys WRT54G or WRT54GS - these two models do support Apple's WDS. Use that router as your network's "base station", and use the Airport Express to wirelessly extend the range of its network.
    If all you want to do is extend the range of an existing Airport Express that you do not want to replace by a non-Apple wireless router, I recommend you spend the money to buy a second Airport Express.

    Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

    Many, many thanks for both of you Todd and Rick.
    to Rick:
    I suppose you mean the Color Settings in Project Settings as follows:
    - Working Space: None
    - Match Legacy ... Gamma Adjustments checked ON
    But it does not correct the colors in effects. And checking or unchecking Make Movie/Output Module Settings/Color Management/Profile/Preserve RGB does not make any difference.
    to both of you:
    Those parts of the video image that does not have color effects are just fine. In these parts the color is preserved when reimporting to FCP. However, those parts having color effects (except Levels, as decribed earlier) have altered color results. So, only the parts having effects affecting color are misinterpreted in the image area. The mismatch is of course seen in AE, before making the movie.
    What I ment with "Color Management not working properly" is that (instead of "disabling" it) Color Management does not seem to be able to correct this "misinterpretation" or difference in effect handling between AE 6 and 10.
    So, would you have any solution for this problem?
    Again, many thanks for your fast replies!
