Problems with internet sharing/network connection/ethernet and XBOX 360

So basically I have a sent my Mac Book Pro 13" (Snow Leopard) away to be fixed, and in return I got a loan Mac Book Pro 15" (Lion). In the two weeks my Mac book was away getting fixed I purchased an XBOX 360, because of my location I am unable to use wireless on my XBOX, so instead I connect the loan Mac Book to the XBOX 360 via network cable.
This worked fine and I could now connect to XBOX Live and be on the Mac Book at the same time.
So today my Mac Book (13") is returned, I connect everything up exactly the same also changing the settings on internet sharing making sure that it can be used to send the connection to other devices via ethernet.
But it just wont connect.
The XBOX doesnt find the connection like it did before, and it also doesnt register on the MAC Book either.
I've tried different cables, the same cable I used where it worked before.
I've tried turning of Virus protection.
Both still at both ends it is not registering a connection, I have used this Mac Book before through a network cable so I dont think there is a problem there, to my knowledge everything is the same as I did on the other Mac Book but this one does work.
Have you any advice or tips on how to get this to work?
Thanks for your time.

What I did to get my network running again (although I still haven't found out why DHCP has stopped working):
1. Open the Control Panel of the computer that's trying to connect to the network (not the computer sharing the internet connection)
2. Go to 'Network' panel, and select the AirPort connection
3. Under the 'TCP/IP' tab, change 'Configure IPv4' pull-down menu from 'Using DHCP' to 'Manually'.
4. Enter an IP address between 10.0.2.2 and 10.0.2.256 (I randomly chose 10.0.2.40), a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, and enter 10.0.2.1 in the Router box.
5. Click "Apply now"
The computer should now be connected to the network, and able to access the internet. If not, you may need to manually enter a DNS server - put '4.2.2.1' (or an IP for a DNS server provided by your ISP) into the 'DNS Servers' box.
You need to do that process for each computer you're trying to connect to the shared network, making sure you enter a different IP Address for each.

  • How to deal with a shared network connection when installing 10 EX

    I am in the process of setting up a Virtual PC XP environment on my Vista Business machine to load Oracle EX in the virtual environment. I am having an issue of receiving a shared network connection with my broadband wireless card within the virtual XP SP3 environment, which Internet access is required for the Oracle EX installation. I checked out a couple tech sites and could not find a solution. I might have to get an Internet access at home from TWC.
    How to resolve this conflict? Thanks.

    I am not sure how +"I am having an issue of receiving a shared network connection with my broadband wireless card within the virtual XP SP3 environment"+ can be resolved on an Oracle forum? There are probalby Windows experts on the forum but I would personally aim for a Windows forum.
    You may want to double check if Oracle XE is even running in a Virtual PC environment before starting this exercise.

  • CSS Problem with Internet Explorer 8.0 Filters and linked reports

    Hi ,
    The Internet explorer 8.0 re presents the filter prompt for linked reports and a warning of "Prevention of XSS" is flashed on the browser. Is there a patch for this since changes in Interner explorer security setting are not possible to be changed in all clients.
    Thanks
    Regards
    Shivakanth

    Jovaini,
    IE 8 handles threads different than previous versions. Thus, if you sign into an APEX workspace and then try to start a new instance of IE 8, that process is no longer seen as a separate process like IE 6 & 7, but rather as another "tab", if you will. Thus, as soon as you log into workspace 2, your login credentials for workspace 1 are invalidated. This is true even if workspace 2 is the APEX Admin Console, as it uses the same underlying authentication mechanism.
    To solve this, you have a couple of options:
    1) Use two different browsers (i.e. IE 8 and Google Chrome).
    2) Use the hostname for one session and the IP address for another session. This will limit you to two concurrent logins.
    3) Either edit your local hosts file or if you can, have your network administrator create a number of aliases to the same APEX server. You can then use each alias for a different session with the same browser. APEX manages its session cookies based on the hostname, so if you have 10 aliases, you will be able to be logged into 10 separate workspaces within the same browser using this approach.
    Thanks,

  • Problem with Internet connection sharing between eMac and Powerbook G3

    Hi,
    I seem to be having a slight problem with internet connection sharing.
    My eMac is the main machine with the internet connection, and its running 10.4.6, the Powerbook G3 is running 10.2.8.
    I can connect them all up and get online with both, but I the problem I am having is when I turn the Firewall on on the eMac, the powerbook can't connect.
    Is there anyway I can keep the Firewall enabled and still use internet connection sharing?

    How do I know which ports the Powerbook is using?
    Also I had web sharing enabled on the eMac and it made no difference at all.
    Plus I don't know if this means anything to you, trying to decipher it myself, all I can make out myself on there is port 80.

    AirPort Express wireless connection, when I surf the news sites so I linked to **** pages. And must close the window. If I use my iPhone with Internet sharing the same computer, then I have no problem.
    I believe that it is in AirPort Express, and would have to clean it. How do you do that?

    You need to use the Express in router mode.. I think you are trying to use it in bridge mode.. but you need to give us a lot more details.. screenshots might help more than anything.

  • Problem with Airport wireless network utilising a Time Capsule. No internet connection?

    Right, I have an Apple Mac and I am creating a Wireless network with an Apple Time Machine. I have had both devices for approx 2 years, they have be fine to date - until I now have the following issue: The Wirless network has been created and can be connected to but that network isn't then connected to the internet. IN have checked with the Cable network provider Virgin and there is a network without proplem provided to the Modem - I have also connected an ethernet cable to direct to the Mac and connected to the www, no probs. I have also asttempted to reset and set up my time capsule / airport again howver the same problem arises. When I go to network Diagnostics I Have a green light for the following; Airport, Airport Settigns, Network Settings,Network Settings, ISP then an amberlight for Internet and server.....Please assist!!!! Is this an ISP address issue. Welcome any help, Thanks in advance. Jimbob

    Sounds like chaos..
    How many outlets are we talking about and what specific equipment?
    Do you really need routers on every one? How many clients do you use?
    Basically there are three non-overlapping channels on 2.4ghz.. using more than three routers in the house is pointless as they will just interfere with each other.. range on 2.4ghz should be sufficient to reach at least half a normal house from one AP. If not there are better high power routers available.
    And there should be just one device that is the main router.. all the other routers should be bridged/ wan bypassed so they are merely AP and switch. Otherwise NAT will cause issues to devices stuck behind a secondary router.

  • Can't create airport/wifi internet-sharing network with other laptop

    I have an iBook running Tiger 10.4.11 connected to the net with ethernet. The internet connection comes through a radio antenna which acts like a router to which I don't have access.
    I want to share my internet connection, and to be able to transfer files, between the iBook and another laptop. I've tried it with two - one running Fedora 11 (mine) and one running Windows XP, and have the same problems with both.
    I turn wifi on on the ibook and linux laptop. I turn on internet sharing from built-in ethernet to airport in System Preferences. First I try it with no encryption. 'Other settings may interfere with internet sharing' shows up; it tells me to enable Personal Web Sharing, which I do. When I click start Little Snitch tells me natd wants to connect to 10.0.2.1 (presumably the router in the antenna), which I allow. I try to connect with the linux laptop and it tries then disconnects.
    1) isn't personal web sharing for serving web pages? — why is it necessary here at all?
    2) what am I doing wrong in making my network work?
    If I enable encryption using WEP, the other password asks me for authenticication, I put in the password, and it then tells me the network has been disconnected.
    3) is WEP the best encryption I can use from Tiger?
    4) I think the problem's with Tiger (both laptops can connect to other wifi networks not set up by me). Is there a piece of free software I can use to share the connection instead of the built-in one?
    I can't make a functional network in reverse either (i.e. setting it up on the other laptop and trying to connect wirelessly with the ibook).
    What I am trying to do is precisely this (http://my.safaribooksonline.com/0596009135/runmacx2-CHP-11-SECT-13) — it just doesn't work.

    When I click start Little Snitch tells me natd wants to connect to 10.0.2.1 (presumably the router in the antenna), which I allow. I try to connect with the linux laptop and it tries then disconnects.
    Back on that part, at that Point the Mac is a NATD Router, don't try to connect to the other computers.
    On the Mac, with Internet Sharing enabled, open NetInfo Manager in Applications>Utilities.
    From there on out, it's a bit foggy, but iirc Config>DHCP>Subnets><the subnet>, then down where it says com.apple.nat... what does it report for IPs?
    If it were say 10.43.29.1 then the others trying to join should have that as a Router/Gateway, and then 10.43.29.2, 10.43.29.3, etc. as IPs.
    Apple says you can't set it Manually, but I've had it work a couple of times.

  • Adding To The LIst Of Problems With Internet Explolrer 11 And Another Browser

    I've b1 of the EA6500 router and like the othe posts I can't use IE 11.  The "solution" is to use either Chrome or Firefox but not my Chrome has stopped working.  All I get now is the LInksys Blue background.  When I first see the site it looks like it's trying but then gives me a blue page.  I've included screen prints of what I see when I go to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi page and below that is the version number.  I have deleted my browser history, cache, saved form data, etc. but the result is still the same.  And it doesn't matter if I use the router IP address or the Smartsys Wi-Fi link.
    So right now the only broweser that will let me do router administration is Firefox but something tells me it too will have problems eventually.
    the problem I'm having isn't with the router, it is with the company.  People have tried to blame Micrtosoft in these posts for the problem but it's not their problem.  The real kicker is that these Smart Wi-Fi routers are not old. nor are they cheap.  LInksys announced this line at CES 2012, then again in April, and the last one announced for thie "initial" line-up of new routers  was the EA6500 (the EA6500 was anounced in June 2012).
    I've been mostly happy with LInksys reouters but if this is the way they are going to conduct business, then maybe I need to make certain adjustments with the networking products we purchase. 
    To put it bluntly...this situation is unacceptable.

    Believe it or not I stumbled across the solution to the problem and need to partially retract one of my previous statements.  In a sense part of the responsibility does go to Microsoft because during one of their infamous "updates", the default version of Internet Explorer was changed to use the 64-bit version.  I rarely used the Internet Explorer (64 bit) link in my Start Menu...I always used the "default" which apparently was the 32-bit version because there are plenty of companies that have not updated their software for 64-bit.
    The article I came across is Problem With Internet Explorer? Maybe You Need Fewer Bits.  The fix is simple and all it really takes is to right-click the icon for Internet Explorer and choose "Properties".  When that comes up change the value in the "Target" field from "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe".  Once you make the change save the change and then use that link to get to administer your browser.  I tried it and it worked.  I guess I missed the post from Linksys Support about that possibility.

  • I  have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7  PC. For several years, I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months

    I  have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7  PC. For several years,
    I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months ago I decided to use Mobile Me. However, there were problems with duplication of calendars and then “rogue events” – which could not be deleted – even if deleted on Outlook and on the iPhone (or both at the same time) – they would just reappear after the next synchronisation.  All other synchronisation areas (eg Contacts, Notes etc) work fine.
    I have looked for help through the Apple Support Community and tried many things.  I have repaired my Outlook. I have repaired my .pst file in Windows. I have re-installed the latest version of iTunes on my PC. I have re-installed the firmware on my iPhone. I have tried many permutations on my iPhone. I have closed down all Mobile Me functions on the iPhone. I have spent upwards of 24 hours trying to solve this problem.
    What am I left with? Outlook works seamlessly on my PC. My iPhone calendar now has no events from  my calendar, but does not synchronise through iTunes. Nor does it send events initiated on the iPhone to the Outlook. I am at the point of abandoning iPhones and iPads altogether.  I need to have a properly synchronising calendar on my phone.  Do you have any suggestions?

    In the control panel goto the "Lenovo - Power Manager" and click the battery tab, there is a maintenance button in there that will let you change the charging profile for your battery.   (from memory, so exact wording may be off)
     The lower the numbers you use there, the longer the battery *should* last.    These batteries degrade faster at higher charge levels, however storing them at too low of levels is also not good for them... I've read that 40% is optimal, but just not realistic if you use your computer.

  • AppleTV don't show in iTunes with internet sharing on

    Dear all,
    I have a problem with my new appletv. I'm sharing internet connection via ethernet on my iMac directly connected to a linksys access point. tv have a wireless connection to the linksys and the ethernet ip address of my iMac as a gateway. With internet sharing on my iTunes don't show tv and don't synchronize with it.
    My current setup is iTunes 8.1 and tv 2.3.1 firmware. With previous firmware release all is ok.
    Any suggestion? Is it possible to use internet sharing and iTunes sync at the same time?
