Problems connecting two wireless rooters without cable.

How do I set two Roter, if one is already configured.
The other is a model Edimax BR-6504n.
For the first Roter I know the MAC address and no password ... I connect with any laptop without the password, I am interested in someone who knows better to enlighten me.
I know from the manual that the rooter supports the following options:
AP
AP Bridge-Point to Point
AP Bridge-Point to Multi Point
AP Bridge-WDS
And in the MAC section of the AP Bridge-Point to Point I put the MAC of the first rooter, and here is the problem cause I do not know the channel of the first rooter. Is there a program or something that find the channel.
I have access only to the second rooter.
And it is important what options to set so that i reduce the number of combination to try when i put the channel.
What option should I put to the LAN? to make the ip different from the first rooter?
IP of first rooter: 192.168.2.100-200 I think this are the range ip of the first rooter.
Should I put the second rooter IP in another range like 192.168.1.*.* or leave it to 192.168.2.*.*?
The problem is that I must link them wireless not by wire.
So how do I connect the second rooter to the first so that I can extend the range of the wireless.
For those interested, here is found the user manual.
http://www.edimax.com/en/support_detail ... 2&pl1_id=1
Or just download the attached file.

In this mode, you canconnect your wireless rooter with another, to combine two access points and expend the scope of the wireless network, and all clients of two wireless rooter will think they'rw on the same physical network.....etc see the image below.
So i think it must work...but i du not know how to config them.
Look in this section.

Help, Issues Connecting two Wireless Routers

Ahead of time I would like to thank everyone for their responses and help. I tried to be as clear as possible. I believe I got all the details right. Some things are repetitive and might be a little confusing, but please ask questions for any clarification. Thanks for the help.
Current Routers:
1. Linksys WRT600N ---- Used as primary router. Connected to the 4 ports are 3 PCs and a wireless router. All three PC have static IPs I reservered, also have a static IP reserved for the WGT624 wireless router. DMZ is also enabled and destination is the IP reserved for WGT624.
2. Netgear WGT624 ---- WGT624 is connected to WRT600N through the WAN port on the WGT624 to port number X on the WRT600N . I was using Netgear WGT624 as an access point for a Xbox360 , a couple of macs and ubuntu netbook. This router recently died needs to be replaced.
3. Linksys E3000 ---- Recently purchased to replace the Netgear WGT624 that has died. I want to use this as my new access point. Having trouble setting up the settings for this router. I want the same setup as before.
Detailed Problem
I currently have the WRT600N located in the basement connected to a cable modem through the WAN port. Connected to the 4 ports on the back of WRT600N are 3 PCs and a Wireless router. Most of the settings on the WRT600N I left alone. The only thing I changed was reserving 4 IPs for the 3 PCs and the WGT624 wireless router. I also enabled the DMZ for the destination IP of the WGT624. I also opened a couple of ports.
The Netgear WGT624 that died was located on the upper level third floor. I was using it primarily as an access point. It was connected through the WAN port of the WGT624 to port X on the WRT600N which is located in the basement. Settings on this are a little different. On the WGT624 I disabled the firewall. I left both the Auto DHCP enabled and the DHCP server. WPA was enabled on the WGT624. With these settings on the WGT624 I was able to connect to a xbox 360 and a few macs wirelessly to the internet with no issues . I also noticed that the the internet IP displayed on the status tab on the WGT624 was the IP I had reserved on the WRT600N.
Recently the WGT624 died after years of usage. So I purchased a Linkys E3000. I want to have a similar setup as before with the WGT624. However I have been running into issues. Wirelessly I cannot get access to the internet through the E3000. The E3000 is connected to the WRT600N in the same was as the WGT624. The WAN port of the E3000 is connected to the port number X of WRT600N. On the status tab of the E3000 I seem to be getting a strange Internet IP address. 127.0.0.1. This I think is a loopback address, I am not sure? Same with the subnet mask of 255.0.0.0
So the problem is I want the keep the same setup as before if I can. I don't want to the any computers who connect to the access point to have access to any computers that are connected to the 600N.
I read on another thread I could connect two wireless routers together by connecting port X on the 600N to port X on the E3000. Then changing the internal IP of the second router from 192.168.1.1 to 198.168.1.2 and then disabling the DHCP server.
I really want to keep the same set up as before if posslble. More importantly I want to know why my setup prior, the WRT600N to the WGT624 worked with no problems. Why could I use the WGT624 as an access point and not the E3000? Should I switch the the two routers use the 600N as the access point and E3000 as my main router?
Thanks again.

1. You have chained two routers. The WRT600N uses LAN IP address 192.168.1.1 subnet mask 255.255.255.0. The Netgear is connected with the WAN port to the WRT (thus uses an 192.168.1.* address on the WAN port) and uses 192.168.0.1 by default on the LAN side. Your new E3000, however, uses the Linksys default 192.168.1.1 on the LAN side. If you connect the E3000 to the WRT600 without making any changes it won't work. A router cannot work if WAN and LAN side both use 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0. That's impossible.
2. Thus, the quick and easy setup to get the same as before would be to change the LAN IP address of the E3000 from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.0.1. After that change you can connect the internet port of the E3000 to the WRT and everything works like before.
3. However, in particular because you need port forwarding and you do port forwarding through two routers I would recommend not to run two routers chained. I can't see why it is necessary for you to run two routers and two separated networks. The basic setup and an explaination why a different setup may be better is here. I think in your case it would make things much simpler and you have full connectivity between all your computers. You can set up a roaming wireless network, too. The only problem is that you will "loose" one port on the E3000 because you cannot use the internet port.

You can connect two Macs with an ethernet wire, or conect two Macs using Firewire if one is placed in target disk mode, but that is it.

Problem Connecting Two Monitors

Just set up a new HP Mini 300-30 with two monitors. Monitor connection is through a device I bought that has HDMI cable connecting to back of HP Mini and two outlets on device to connect two monitors using VGA cables that came with each monitor. Monitors work but are set up with mirror image and I have not been able to find a way to make each monitor run indpendently. If I use keyboard and press Windows key + P it brings up a screen where I can select monitor options. I select the option to run separate monitors but nothing happens. I believe I have tried everything but the correct way.

Problem connecting two seperate straight line paths. Please help!

Hi there, I'm new to illustrator and have been having a problem connecting two straight line paths. They never seem to line up correctly. Attached is a photo of the problem. I assume this is an easy fix but I can't figure it out myself.

Brigid,
There seems to be two aspects:
One is to get the end points to coincide. You may tick View>Snap Guides, then click one path by the end Anchor Point and drag it to snap (Smart Guides say anchor when you are there).
The other is to get rid of the gap in the stroke(s), You may join the paths into one, dragging across the coinciding Anchor Points with the Direct Selection Tool and Ctrl/Cmd+J, or you may keep the separate paths and change the Cap to Round in the Stroke palette/panel which will give you a rounded outer appearance); I presume the former is what you wish, in which case you may choose between Round and Miter Join.

Problem connecting two trunks to sip provider using same CUBE

We need to connect two SIP trunks from service provider to Cisco CUCM 7.1 using CUBE “Cisco 2821”, SP using the following configuration:
First SIP PSTN Link Configuration(In-Out DID/DOD 218 7700 – 218 7799)
Customer IP Address =   10.196.191.158/30
SP IP Address = 10.196.191.157/30
Protocol= SIP
SIP Port = 5060
Transport Protocol=UDP
Voice Codec= G711 A-Law
DTMF = IN-Band DTMF without RFC2833
Signaling IP address = 10.201.20.49
IP Address 10.201.20.10 (Media IP) must be visible from IP PABX
Second SIP PSTN Link Configuration( Inbound Only 920009999)
Customer IP Address =   10.196.192.94/30
SP IP Address = 10.196.192.93/30
Protocol= SIP
SIP Port = 5060
Transport Protocol=UDP
Voice Codec= G711 A-Law
DTMF = IN-Band DTMF without RFC2833
SIP server IP address = 10.201.20.49
IP Address 10.201.20.10 (Media IP) must be visible from IP PABX
When we tried to configure both links on the same CUBE we faced two problems:
-          Routing issue, as we can’t route traffic using single CUBE through two different interfaces to the same destination “ i.e we have to configure static route commend (ip route 10.201.20.49 255.255.255.255 10.196.191.157 & ip route 10.201.20.49 255.255.255.255 10.196.192.93), sip traffic coming from one link can’t be sure to send it back to the same link.
-          SIP media & signaling control binding issue, as CUBE support sip binding using one interface only “one IP Address”, if we not using binding commands on the CUBE we can’t receive any calls though any link.
We have two options:
SP to send both traffic on the same trunk link
Or
Have another CUBE for the second link.
Attached network diagram.
Any solution?????
Regards,
Ahmed Rizk

I didn't mean NAT CUCM, I meant the interface towards it. But since you're using a single interface then yes that is what you NAT. You have a lot going on in that config. Probably a lot more than you need. Like I said you should work on this in two legs. CUBE to ITSP, and then CUCM to CUBE. You're trying to make the whole thing work in one shot which is going to cause you some headaches.
Install XLite free version. In the account settings set your UserID to a generic 10 digit phone number, domain to something generic, then at the bottom set the Proxy Address to the IP of your CUBE. The media ports will be negotiated dynamically between the CUBE and the ITSP. Since you said you're not registering you will also need to give the ITSP YOUR peer IP (this is how they secure the trunk) which is whatever IP you're sourcing from when you leave your network (what you're NAT'ing the CUBE to).
For testing, reduce your config to something like this:
voice service voip
allow-connections sip to sip
allow-connections h323 to sip
no supplementary-service sip moved-temporarily
no supplementary-service sip refer
signaling forward none
sip
dial-peer voice 10 voip
description CUBE_TO_ITSP
session protocol sipv2
session target ipv4:SIGNALING IP PROVIDED BY ITSP
destination-pattern [2-9].........
codec g711ulaw
dtmf-relay rtp-nte sip-notify
no vad
dial-peer voice 20 voip
description ITSP_TO_CUBE
destination-pattern .
session protocol sipv2
session target ipv4:Eventually your CUCM IP...for now set it to your computers IP.
codec g711ulaw
dtmf-relay rtp-nte sip-notify
no vad
Use XLite to place a phone call from your PC (if you have a mic and speakers you can have audio if the call connects). This should come pretty close to getting your outward leg established. Once you get this part working you can add in more codecs and translation profiles if you want. Let me know what happens. Include any debug or packet cap results if you can.

Can't connect to wireless networks without disabling firewall.

I just had the built-in battery replaced on my MBP by the genius bar. When I started the machine up I was bombarded with firewall messages asking if applications should be given access to incoming network connections. I didn't recognize a few of them and clicked "deny". Now my machine will no longer connect to a wireless network without first disabling the firewall. Then I can re-enable the firewall and it seems to work okay.
I went through the Security panel and edited the list of applications allowed to have incoming connections and enabled all the ones that were disabled hoping that would fix it. The only one that is disabled now is OSXVNC, which I don't use and don't want to be enabled.
I'm not sure why replacing the battery caused all the windows to pop up, but now I don't know how to fix this issue. Anyone have any advice? Is there a way to restore my old firewall settings?

Go to the /Macintosh HD/Library/Preferences/ folder and remove the file called "com.apple.alf.plist", then restart your system.
This file is the preferences file for the application firewall. Removing it will clear all the firewall rules and set up the firewall from scratch. Sometimes after hardware configuration changes, or even hard crashes the firewall may not work properly and removing this file to set it up from scratch should do the trick. It will still ask you to allow some services and applications after doing this, but should not ask to for every system service and feature that uses the network.

Problem connecting two ipads to wifi

I'm sorry if this has been asked already. I'm having trouble connecting two ipads or an iPad and iPhone to my home wifi. Ive found that if I have an iPad or iPhone connected to my wifi, then i cant connect a second iPad at all. I have to turn the wifi setting off on the connected device, then I have to completely turn off the device I'm trying to connect, turn it back on, then it will accept the wifi password & connect. Long of the short, my friend and I can't use our ipads at the same time on my wifi. Is there a setting I could change on my router to fix this problem?

Or u cn try chk hw many ip address ur router was set to allocate.
Another router setting u cn try is set to WEP shared instead of WEP Open. I not sure if this solve, i set to WEP Shared bcos previous my nintendo DS only work with with WEP shared.
My home network is able to connect with 2 ipad and 2 iphs all at the same time, sometime with an additional laptop. Meeting 5 devices.

Having problems connecting to wireless network when extended

Hi. I recently switched over to a mac and love it!! However I recently purchased a Time Capsule and a Airport Extreme to extend the network and am having problems. My macbook continues to log onto the guest network and not the main wireless network. When I try to switch to the main network it asks me for the WPA password and then it tries to connect but then states connection timeout. When I remove the guest network from my list of networks it will not allow me to connect to the internet at all through the main wireless network unless I power down the airport extreme that is extending the network. One final note, I have no problems at all if I keep the airport extreme shut down and do not extend the network. It seems it is not the time capsule but the airport extreme. One other additional note, my windows machines are having no problem connecting to the main wireless network with the network extended!!

Welcome to the discussions!
A few thoughts:
If you have not already done so, it will makes things easier to troubleshoot if you assign separate names to your "main" and "guest" network. By default, they are the same name and it sometimes is difficult to know what network you are actually connected to.
Open AirPort Utility, click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
Look for an "options" button. This should allow you to assign a separate name for the "guest" network.
The "main" network can be extended, but the "guest" network cannot be extended. Your other computers may be connecting to the "guest" network unless they are newer devices capable of connecting at 802.11n only 5 GHz.
It's easy to make a mistake when setting up the "extend" feature. Please check the following settings for your TC and AirPort AX or AEBS (You posted in the Airport Express forum, but talk about having an AirPort Extreme in your post).
You will use AirPort Utility - Manual Setup as above to check your settings as follows:
_On the Time Capsule:_
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
Wireless Mode should be "Create a wireless network"
Make sure there is a check mark next to "Allow this network to be extended"
_On the AX or AEBS:_
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
Wireless Mode should be set to "Extend a wireless network"
Make sure there is a check mark next to "Allow wireless clients"
The Security and Password settings must match the settings of the TC exactly
You should now be able to identify whether your computers are connecting to the "main" or "guest" network. If your computers are connecting to the "guest" network, they are connecting directly to the Time Capsule regardless of their location in relation to your device that is extending the network.
Using your Mac, if you hold down the "option" key while you click on the fan shaped airport icon at the top of the screen, you will be able to see whether you are connected to the "main" network (802.11n 5 GHz) or the "guest" network" (802.11 2.4 GHz).
The BSSID will display the AirPort ID of the device that you are connected to. By noting the ID of your Time Capsule and AX or AEBS, you will know which device you are actually connected to on the network. As you move closer to the "extending" device, your computer should automatically switch to the device with the strongest signal.
Please post back on your findings.

Problem connecting two storage networks

Hello,
I connect two datacenters with 10GB modules. I'm using single mode fiber, it has 10Km between datacenters. Now I need connect the storage network in both datacenters using the same fiber. The storage networks use FCoE.
What solution can I use to connect the two storage networks. My budget is really limited.
Storage Network 1---------Network 1-------Fiber---------Network 2------Storage Network 2
Thanks for the help.

Connecting two wireless routers!?

Recently i got an iMac and now i have everything setup, except the internet. My office PC has a comcast netgear router, and i have an old linkskys router, how would i go about creating a wireless bridge? If it helps to solve the problem, heres some more info:
1)The PC is Windows XP media center
2)The iMac is a Snow g3.
3)The PC is the computer with internet from the wall, every other computer uses the wifi
4)I don't know the exact details of the two routers, but if it helps i could find out
Also, do i need to buy any extra cables or cards? I would like to avoid buying new things, but i will if i have to. My ISP is comcast, they told me that as i needed to get something i could find at my local best buy, but i'm not sure of the specifics.
Thanks for the help, the sooner i get this solved the better, and ask me anything if it might help you.

WDS stands for Wireless Distribution System. It is a means for having a central router to which various wireless access points can connect thus eliminating the need for multiple routers. An access point just provides an external wireless transceiver that connects to a computers Ethernet or USB port. In effect it is like a wireless card. The access point does not create networks but can connect to an existing network created by the central router. The router distributes IP addresses to the access point that in turn is used by the connected device.
Some more modern routers handle the configuration transparently so that the user does not get bogged down in configuration setups. You will have to explore what your cable modem/router does. Only the documentation for it will help you. in the documentation you may well find it explains how to do what you want. You will need the documentation for the LinkSys in order to configure it properly. Otherwise you can hire someone locally to set it all up for you.

MBP problem connecting to wireless internet

I recently tried to get online using my Macbook Pro (Intel) and I was prompted for the password to access the wireless internet network which was unusual as it normally connected automatically every time. Once I had entered the correct password I was met with the pop up window "'There was an error connecting to the network 'Vlsise'" (Vlsise is the name of our home network). I think that this may have been due to recently downloading some updates the day before but I can't be sure.
I have an iMac (Intel) and PlayStation 3 which connect fine to the internet wirelessly but I've not gotten around to downloading the latest updates for the iMac in fear of it encountering the same problem as my MBP.
My laptop can connect via the ethernet cable but when I try to connect wirelessly I briefly see the IP Address 169.254.109.180 in the network settings window before the error message appears, if that is of any use.
The router I'm using is a 'Zyxel 660HW-T3' and has been great for the year that I've had it. It may also be worth pointing out that our provider 'Telefonica O2' upgraded our service last month but as the MBP is the only Mac that has a problem I can't really see this being related.
If anyone has a solution to my problem or any tips to try rectify the problem they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

So I took my MBP to work to try their WPA2 password protected network and it connected no problem! I'm absolutely stumped on this one I think my last resort will be to re-install OSX and see if that works. If someone else has already tried this and it didn't work then please inform me so that I can save myself the hassle.

Does airport express have to be connected to wireless modem by cable

I'm trying to set up my wireless network with my wireless modem in my hall and AirPort Extreme in lounge. I thought that the airport would use the wireless signal from the modem and operate as if it was connected by Ethernet cable. Wrong?

You need a minimum of two Apple routers if you want to "extend" a wireless nework using wireless only.
The AirPort cannot "extend" a wireless network from a 3rd party router using wireless only.
If you have a 3rd party router and an AirPort Exteme, the AirPort will need to be connected directly to your main router using a wired Ethernet cable connection.

Problems connecting on Wireless 802.11n with my T61 with Intel Wireless AGN

Hi, I live in Thailand and have a similar problem as others with my Intel Wireless AGN connection as others. I have a D-Link Model DSL-2740B Rangebooster N ADSL2/2+ Modem Router. It is supposed to support 802.11n draft wireless connections of up to a maximum of 270 MBPS versus 54 MBPS for 802-11G wireless. Of course, I don't expect it to reach the maximum transfer speed, particularly here in Thaiand, however I would expect it to produce results better than the 54 MBPS rate for 802-11G. I first tried it on my ThinkPad T61 which incorporates Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN. When connected, it shows a speed of 54MBPS (802-11G) instead of higher wireless 802-11n speeds. I've upgraded my router to the latest firmware and have tried different configurations with no improvement in performance. One think I have noted is that when I make an on-line configuration change to my router configuration then select "apply", immediately my ThinkPad rate changes to 150 MBPS momentarily then my connection is lost (to be expected as the router changes are being implemented), followed by reconnection of wireless signal only to return at 54 MBPS again. I also have an older ThinkPad model without built-in wireless capability so I purchased a Belkin wireless 802.11n USB adapter to connect to my router. Again, the maximum connection is at 54 MBPS. When I repeat configuration changes to my router as I did above, my ThinkPad connection momentarily changes to only 1 MBPS instead of 150 MBPS as in my other T61 ThinkPad then reverts back to 54 MBPS once the configuration changes have been completed. Has anyone successfully used wireless 802.11n successfully at the higher transfer rates (above 54 MBPS)? Is it possible that my TOT Goldcyber connection speed is artificially limited? I notice that my rated speed for my desktop computer connected to my same D-Link DSL-2740B only indicates a rated speed of 100 MBPS. I use Vista Home Premium 64-bit on my destop, Vista Home Premium 32-bit on my ThinkPad T61, but us Windows XP Professional on my older ThinkPad. I feel that my problem is either with my ADSL carrier (TOT) or compatibility with my D-Link DSL-2740B Modem Router and my ThinkPad T61 internal wireless card and/or Belkin wireless n USB adapter. IT-City is letting me swap out the Belkin USB for the D-Link Rangebooster n DWA-140 USB adapter next week when they restock. The only other think that I can think of is that wireless n just doesn't work in Thailand and that maybe I should just stick with wireless G and go with a higher powered wireless USB model such as the business rated EmGenius EUB 362 EXT. Has anyone used this model and had good success with it; I've heard that it is a long range model and has the capability of reaching 108 MBPS through some sort of magic? Looking forward to reading your replies and possible solution.
Pattayadavid

Hi!
Intel Wi-Fi cards support full 802.11n speed of 300 Mb/s working at 5 GHz range only. Your D-Link DSL-2740B works only in 2.4 GHz range. So to get 300 Mb/s you have to get another wi-fi router that supports 802.11n in both 2.4 and 5 GHz, for instance Lynksys WRT610N or Apple Airport Extreme or whatever.

WRT350N problem connecting to wireless after firware upgrade to 1.04.4

I have a WRT350N which has been in service for some time without any real trouble. I connect to it with a variety of laptops off and on and a ps3. Recently, my wife's laptop began disconnecting randomly and frequently. I repaired her windows after the usual tricks didn't help. After the repair, her problem was gone for a few weeks, then returned. It is a Dell Lattitude 110L and I suspect the wireless device in it is giving up. But I thought I would see if there were any firmware upgrades for my router, in case there was help for the situation that way. I was running 1.03.8 and 1.04.4 was available. So I downloaded and installed the upgrade.
My wired network continued to function just fine. But now none of my laptops or the ps3 could connect to the wireless. They saw the SSID being broadcast. They did key exchange. They requested a dhcp address, and then the connectionstopped being answered by the WRT350N. I tried many things. No joy. Decided to contact Cisco support via live chat. They had me change a number of settings for thresholds and channels and such with no effect. While doing this, I happened to notice that wireless QoS was disabled and the help says that by default it should be enabled. I have never changed this setting myself. In desperation, I put all the setting which Cisco had me mess with back to their defaults (where they were before Shaharyiar tried to help me) and I tried setting wireless QoS to enabled. Bingo. All my laptops and the ps3 now connect again. I suggested to the agent that they log this as a bug in the upgrade or the firmware. I got the impression that might not be followed up on, so I am posting my story here in the hopes it may prove helpful to others.

If you have other devices on your network that support Wireless QoS, select Enabled. Otherwise, keep the default, Disabled.
Thanks for the information. Your post will definitely help other users.
