Problems with Bridge Mode - Please advise.

Folks I have my Time Capsule on our network in bridge mode to use it as a switch and wireless access point. Internet connectivity seems to keep having problems and I am not sure if my setup makes sense:
My Setup: Netgear DGN3500 Router (modem built in) ->Time Capsule (in bridge mode via ethernet) -> Network devices
Problems:
- Time Capsule TCP/IP has 169.xxx.xx.xx IP Address using DHCP, subnet is wrong (missing one "255" set) , router address is correct
- Netgear router sees Time Capsule connected with a proper IP address (192.168.1.xxx) in routing table
- flashing amber light due to airport not having a valid IP address even though I turned wireless off temporarily for the purposes of trouble shooting. I first just want to get ethernet working correctly
I've reset my router, the Time Capsule all settings, renewed DHCP Lease in Time Capsule...all the standard fanfare.
Any ideas folks or is this thing just done?
Tesserax if you're out there, please respond. I think you've addressed this as well, but I have no solution.

If my router is the DHCP server and my TC is in bridge mode (accepting DHCP info) shouldn't my TC be getting 192.xxx.x.xxx numbers and same subnet mask?
Yes. Have you power cycled the entire network as a troubleshooting step in this regard? If not, power everything down on the entire network, order is not important.
Start your modem first and let it run a moment by itself, then start the next router connected to the modem the same way. Start the Time Capsule the same way. Continue starting devices one a time the same way until the entire network is powered back up.
Additionally, if the TC is in bridge mode, can it serve other devices through the other LAN ports?
Yes. In bridge mode the ethernet ports are acting like a simple ethernet switch. Since they all behave like LAN ports in this configuration, try a different port on the Time Capsule for your connection from the switch to see if that helps.
I suppose I could tell my netgear to only give a range of addresses and the TC another range, but I didn't think I'd have to go through all of that.
I would not recommend that you do this. Even if you are able to avoid IP address conflicts, you'll have a Double NAT error on the network, at best slowing communications down. At worst, devices on one sub net will not be able to communicate with devices on the other sub net.
By the way I forgot to mention one part of my network - the switch (not the LAN one built into my netgear router). There's a 24-port
As a troubleshooting step, try bypassing the switch to see if that makes any difference in the performance of the TC. I like Netgear switches and have used them for years, but I've also had an occasional failure in several of their ethernet switches. It does happen.

Problems with Bridge mode at a hotel

Hi there,
I have my Airport Express (N) set up to create a wireless network, use DHCP, and be in Bridge mode. When I plug in the Ethernet cable from a hotel (where you are required to subscribe and pay for their service), I can use the internet from my laptop wirelessly without problems. However when I connect to wifi from my iPhone 3GS, it connects to the network, but prompts me to repay for another service. The site also states that the price is 'per computer'. I was under the impression that when a router was in Bridge mode, it was invisible to the hotel network, and you can share the internet connection with multiple computers, but somehow the hotel is detecting exactly that. Am I missing anything here?

Sorry, the hotel router is configured to charge you for each separate device that connects. In other words, if you connected with your computer and paid the fee, and then another person tried to connect their laptop, the hotel router sees another device and will charge for that device.
Bridge mode on the Express allows you to configure your computer so that the hotel router sees your computer as the connecting device. Bridge mode is the only setting that will work correctly to allow you to configure your Express.
Specifically, the hotel assigns an IP when you connect your computer, if you try to connect another device, it needs to assign another IP address. The hotel will charge you for each IP address.

IPhoto won't see iPhone. No problem with iTunes. Please advise.

I have upgraded to iPhoto '11 v. 9.1.3 a few weeks ago. At some point since then I have noticed that my iPhone will not appear in iPhoto so I cannot import photos. I have tried all the obvsious ways around this but it's not coming up so I have no way of backing up my photos. Can't even get the Bluetooth route to work but that's another question! Have done all the usual such as re-starting both devices etc and nothing. I also recently had to do a restore on my phone and the problem may have happened since then. The phone appears in iTunes no problem.
Please advise as I have some lovely pics of my kids that I want to back up asap! Thanks

Greetings Lisa,
The most common cause of this issue is #1. Incompatible picture (received via email or downloaded from the Internet) in the camera roll and #2. Issues with the iOS (not up to date, damaged, etc). As you just did a restore we can probably eliminate #2.
I have tried all the obvsious ways around this but it's not coming up so
This doesn't tell us anything. If you tell us what you have tried that will help you to receive new ideas as opposed to repeats of what you've already done.
Can't even get the Bluetooth route to work
iPhoto does not import images over Bluetooth from an iPhone that I am aware of. I certainly wouldn't recommend it given low data transfer rates of Bluetooth and the possibility of wireless interference were it possible.
Please advise as I have some lovely pics of my kids that I want to back up asap!
Email the desired images to yourself if you need them off the phone quickly.
Try using Image Capture to import your images. It is found in Macintosh HD > Applications > Image Capture.
If that is not of assistance then follow this article completely as it covers this behavior quite thoroughly: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3195

Hi I have been having a problem with Bridge in CS4 recently. So uninstalled CS4 and Lightroom 4.4 and reinstalled them on my Desktop PC. When I turned on Bridge through CS4, My thumb nail images disappeared and a thumb nail icon with CR2 appeared. Now some of my images have disappeared from Light room 4.4, but I can find them in CS4 and Bridge now shows some thumb nails as images and some as an icon with CR2. I have spent two weeks going through preferences etc. to find how to resolve my problem. Please can you Help? Meany thanks in advance

I don't use LR and rarely use the bridge so I can not answers about thumbnails in them, However thumbnails in windows file explorer and windows dialog for CS2 files will only show if you have installed codec into windows that will produce them. Windows does not do CR2 thumbnails on its own. I use FastPictureViewer Codec package for RAW File and PSD files thunbmail support.

By uninstalling the previous version you have fouled up the file association. You can try the manual method of preferences/file type assoications and changing the default. If this does not work there are other ways that involve more work.

We recently switched ISPs. To connect to the new ISP our Airport Extreme has to be in bridge mode. Now our Nintendo Wii won't connect to the Airport. Is it an issue with bridge mode that is causing this?

We recently switched ISPs. To connect to the new ISP our Airport Extreme has to be in bridge mode. Now our Nintendo Wii won't connect to the Airport. Is it an issue with bridge mode that is causing this? We're running two Macs wirelessly with no problems. And the Wii did connect before the switch.

Hello and thanks for the reply. I gave this a try, turned off Airport on one of the computers and tried the Wii again. Still no connection. I should say that we're also running an old G4 (wired) off the Airport as well, with no problems. I've tried many things to make the Wii to work, including power cycling the Airport, turning off the security settings in the Airport, resetting the Airport to it's default and redoing the network, resetting the network setting on the Wii (several times), moved the Airport closer to the Wii, all with no luck. The Wii "sees" the Airport but won't connect to it. I'm at a loss for anything else to try, so any help is appreciated.

Having problems with Bridge shutting down after saving photo in PS Cs5,,,,,,,,, Also when i attempt to update either PS or bridge get an error message in Adobe application manger "Error loading updater workflow"

Having problems with Bridge shutting down after saving photo in PS Cs5,,,,,,,,, Also when i attempt to update either PS or bridge get an error message in Adobe application manger "Error loading updater workflow"

Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is.

Problem with Append mode in File Receiver

Hello,
I am facing some problem with Append Mode in File Receiver.
In channel config, i have given :
Construction Mode : Append
File Type : Text
Message Protocol : File Content Conversion
The size of the file which i am trying to send is about 9.5MB.
I got this error,
"Recovering from loss of connection to database; message
loaded into queue by recover job: System Job (Failover Recovery)".
So, it would seem that there was a loss of connnection to the database
while the file was being written.
Note - XI successfully recovered from the connection loss and
successfully wrote the file, however since the communication channel
was set to append, it appended to the partial file that was written
before the database connection loss. This is not correct. The file
should have been overwritten after the recovery even though the communication
channel was configured to append.
Can anyone help me on this regard.
Thanks,
Soorya.

Hi Venkat,
I would suggest u to split the file in to chunks if u face any problem in processing at a time in append mode and also
Memory Requirements are must 4 processing huge files:
Q: Which memory requirements does the File Adapter have? Is there a restriction on the maximum file size it can process?
A: The maximum file size that can be processed by the File Adapter depends on a number of factors:
o The most important one is the size of the Java heap, which is shared among all messages processed at a certain point in time. In order to be able to process larger messages without an out of memory error (OOM), it is recommended to increase the size of the available Java heap and/or to reduce the concurrency in the system so that fewer messages are processed in parallel.
o Another factor negatively influencing the maximum message size in releases up to and including XI 3.0 SP 13 is an enabled charcter set (encoding) conversion if the message type is set to "Text".
o Using the transport protocol "File Transfer Protocol (FTP)" also uses more memory for processing than the transport protocol "File System (NFS)" (up to and including XI 3.0 SP 13).
o If the Message Protocol "File Content Conversion" is used in a File Sender channel, consider that not only the size of the input file affects the File Adapter's memory usage, but even more the size of the XML resulting from the conversion, which is usually a few factors larger than the original plain text file.
To reduce the memory consumption in this scenario, consider configuring the setting "Maximum Recordsets per Message" for the sender channel. This will cause the input file to be split into multiple smaller mesages.
Plz do refer the following links:
U may plan the availability of ur communication channel using "Planning Availability Times" feature

Problem with Fullscreen mode

Hello. I have problem with Fullscreen mode in Pages 09. Let me explain it. I launch Pages 09 on space nr 4, than i activate fullscreen mode and now when fullscreen is active i switch for example to space nr 2. And what happens? Pages also moves to space nr 2, but i don't want to move my pages to space nr 2. I guess it is a bug in Pages 09. Thank you for your advice.

Hi There
By the sounds of this behaviour you haven't set any space options for Pages within System Preferences (Expose and Spaces Pane). After experimenting with different options this is what I experience:
1. Pages not listed in application assignment in spaces Preferences - Enter full screen in pages, switch from one space to another pages window will follow and exit fullscreen (this sounds like what you are experiencing).
2. Pages set to every space in app assignment - Enter full screen in pages, switch from one space to another and pages will follow but wont exit full screen.
3. Pages set to a single space in app assignment - Enter full screen in pages, switch from one space to another using control and arrow keys pages will pull me back into the space it is set to and will exit fullscreen. Using the control and number keys pages will stay in its set space but upon returning to that space pages had exited fullscreen.
I suggest you add pages to the the spaces application assignment in System Preferences by clicking the plus arrow under the list of apps and select a specific space for pages to open in, once open Pages will only move from this space if you move it manually.
You can send your feedback to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html if you wish
Hope this helps

Problem with passive mode FTP server and NAT

Hi,
I have a problem with Passive mode FTP and NAT.
I am trying to run both an FTP server and sharing the Internet connection via NAT. I have by the way specified the passive ports to use in ftpaccess (65000-65534). Everything works fine until someone tries to connect via Passive mode. I have tracked the problem down to the firewall and the rule that handles NAT.
Firewall rule config without NAT:
00001 allow udp from any 626 to any dst-port 626
01000 allow ip from any to any via lo0
12300 allow ip from any to any
65535 allow ip from any to any
Firewall rule config with NAT
00001 allow udp from any 626 to any dst-port 626
00010 divert 8668 ip from any to any via en1
01000 allow ip from any to any via lo0
12300 allow ip from any to any
65535 allow ip from any to any
So, passive ports do not work when NAT is on. If I turn it off, Passive ftp works like a charm.
But how do I solve my problem? I have in my quest for the answer stumbled upon "-punch_fw" but do not know how to use it or if it even helps me at all?
Best regards,
Peter

Frustrating problem with Bridge 6.1.0

I have been experiencing a frustrating problem with Bridge 6.1.0 and previous versions. Soemtimes when I save a file to a particular folder, the file is present in the Finder window, but is not visible in Bridge. If I move the file from Finder to Bridge by draging it there, then it shows up but it is so frustrating to have to do it this way. I have tried to use the «Refresh» function in Bridge but that does not help. All scripts are turned on in Preferences- I have Mac OS X 10.9.4

The current version will not run on Mac OS 10.6.8. Thanks for any assistance.
The easiest way would be to update to at least 10.7.5 (supported on most older Macs) but maybe you have strong reasons not to do so, however it will put you in to more trouble in the future because newer applications have more often the habit of not being able to support older OS versions due to limitations of this old OS.
Here is the announcement of Adobe:
http://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/moving-ahead-with-mac-os-x-10-7-and-higher/
However PS CC should still work on your system and otherwise CS6 should. As a cloud subscriber you still have access to both CC and CS6 on the Adobe CC download pages. But only PS is a major upgrade (changed to version 2014) and Bridge has just a minor update and should still work on 10.6.8 I would think?
Installing the updates and upgrades did not remove or uninstall the CC versions of PS, otherwise use CC application to install CC again.

Problem with bridge and getting internet on android

My ISP uses a modem/router that's mounted outside of my house. From there it runs into my Linksys E1200. Since it's a router connected to a router I have to use it as an access point. I don't have any cable connected to the internet port in other words.
So I get a cheap LG Adroid for wifi only. The phone hasn't been activated and it doesn't have a service plan. The wifi works on it though as I've connected and used the wifi at businesses that provide it for free.
My desktop is wired with a ethernet cable. My notebook is wireless and it connects and get the internet. So ISP router> Linksys in bridge mode. The cable from the router can be put in any port but it's in a yellow one. My notebook on the other side of the house conected via wifi and getting the internet.
My problem is the phone. No matter what I've tried it connects to the router but I end up getting a "Internet not availible: message shortly after. I didn't know whether to use the Linksys IP info to setup on the phone or the IP of my ISP's router/modem. I've tried to enter both on the phone when modifying the network.
I unplugged everything but my desktop and connected it to the Linksys. Did ipconfig /all. Used a browser to get to the Linksys setup. Set it in bridge mode. Disabled DCHP. All security is disabled., including the WPS that's a feature on my router. Specified my own IP info in the setup tab, using the information I got from the ipconfig. Rehooked up the cables in the back. All is well. I have internet o nthe desktop and the notebook, just not the phone. To get to the Linksys setup page I not longer do the 198.162.1.1. I enter the gateway of my isp's modem/router.
I've entered all of this same information on the phone with a static connection instead of DCHP.Choose a IP that was a few digits higher than the gateway. I still get the "Internet not availible" that Cisco reports back. On the desktop I pinged the IP I assinged my phone. Packets are recieved. I can aslo acces the Linksys setup page on my phone so it really is connecting to the router.
I'm at my wits end. I've tried different things, too many to remember. If anyone has any idea I would appreciate it.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

No the phone should get it's IP from your DHCP server.
The IP Address of the Linksys is just so you can access it and has nothing to do with the network. You turned it into a repeater\switch.
What is your DHCP server's IP Address and DHCP range? This info will basically spell things out.
If you plug a computer into one of the Linksys lan ports it should work normally and so should the wireless devices in that case
