Quantum Gateway G1100 router - can't get ethernet ports to work?!

I just got a Quantum Gateway G1100 router, and the improvement in wireless networking speed over my old Actiontec router is as advertised.
However, I find that I can’t get any of my wired devices to connect to the router via any of the four yellow Ethernet ports on the back of the unit. I can only connect to this thing wirelessly. Hooking up my PC to the router with an Ethernet cable gets me no connection, not even to the router itself at 192.168.1.1 (or myfiosgateway.com).
I have a PC, a printer, a network drive/media server and a Roku all wired to my router, none of them are detected. I can connect my PC and Roku wirelessly, but the network drive and printer must be wired.
The instructions act like it should be plug-and-go for the Ethernet ports, which has always been my experience with other routers over 10+ years of using Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, Actiontec, etc., units. Usually it’s the wireless network config that has hiccups. This is a first for me.
Am I missing something obvious? I’ve swapped back in my old Actiontec router just to check things out, and the wired devices all see my home network and the internet as well.
Interestingly, if I go to the “My Network” tab on the router, I see one and only one Ethernet device. I don’t know what it is, and it is labeled “Active”, but it’s sitting on 192.168.1.4, which is the static IP address I’d configured my network drive to grab, yet it is not the network drive (any attempt to connect to it just times out).

it does give me an IP address for the ethernet connection - 192.168.1.151 - that is different from the one for the wireless connection, which is 192.168.1.152. I can see both of these listed on the router's connections as well, in the My Network tab, if I Show All. But if I disable the wireless, my PC cannot ping either iteself or the router at 192.168.1.1.
In fact, I can ping 192.168.1.152 (the wireless connection) but never 192.168.1.151.
There is no IP address for my other wired devices, except that I do see 192.168.1.4 appearing, which is the static address of the network drive device. But I cannot connect to it (there is a web and media server running on the device which ordinarily pops up a config screen at 192.168.1.4).

[SOLVED] Can't get ethernet and wireless working on timelineX 3820TG

Hi folks I am new around here, but wanted to try arch for a while now.
So here is my problem and description :
I installed Arch (everything in order there and the guide is great! ), but when I come to the part of connecting to the internet I seem to be left without an option for internet conection. Which is strange because I have Ubuntu installed on the machine and wireless works (propriatary drivers) and ethernet kind of works (atheros driver).
Now from Ubuntu I know that for my wifi I need the wl kernel module (Broadcom wireless card) and that I need the atl1c module for the Ethernet.
So here is some basic info about the machine:
installed image 2010.05 x64 with kernel:
2.6.33-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu May 13 11:32:37 CEST 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 450 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
ifconfig -a output :
lo Link encap:Local Loopback

TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
Even if I load the atl1c module the output is the same, I tried loading the atl1e instead. I also tried blacklisting atl1c and atl1e and adding them with modprobe command.
here are the two adapters (wireless and lan) :
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8151 v1.0 Gigabit Ethernet (rev c0)
05:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Device 4357 (rev 01)
EDIT:
Well...
After a quite extensive research I see that the atl1c and atl1e are quite buggy... so I guess in my case they won't work.
But I am not giving up yet...
all I need is internet conection (wireles or wired), so I did some research on the Broadcom 4357.
It turnes out that I can find it in the AUR repository. And there is also a tar from broadcom.
I also found this guide which describes how to install the driver.
That however presents new problems...
make command output for the broadcom driver :
make: *** /lib/modules/"release"/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
while "makepgk" tells me that makepgk is not installed.
I also searched in the packages section for build-essential, makepgk... but found nothing relevant. Maybe I did something wrong ?
Any Ideas on how to get it all working and compile the driver? (preferably with the files from AUR)
Any help is greatly appreciated.

thanks. i found this one: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19514
that's too bad. i was hoping i wouldn't have to use it, but maybe i have no choice.
but now that broadcom has released the driver as open source (see this: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ker … ral/55418), will broadcom-wl become obsolete?

Can't get switch ports to work

Okay so I have a basic home lab, 2600 router x2 and 2900 XL switch x 2. I've connected each router together (they "see" each other in cdp), and each router to one switch. My problem is that the interfaces that the router connects to the switch won't accept an ip address, (it says unrecognized command) and the switch lights are off). A "show status" says only the trunk port (22 on each switch) are connected. I've checked the cabling, it works, and the cables are out of the box. What am I missing/forgetting?
Sorry if i newb :\ I'm Looking forward to going over static routes xD
Thanks,

Can't get airport express to work with new wireless router

I just swapped out a linksys wrt54gl for a linksys E1200 wireless router on my home network. My PCs and iPads, and TV all made the switch to the new network fine, but the airport express isn't working. All I want to use it for is to transfer iPad audio to my home speakers. but my iPad AirPlay shows the old Airport as an option, I can switch to the Airport, no sound comes out the home speakers, then the iPad reverts AirPlay back to iPad. This model Airport just has power, USB, and LANA ports, so it doesn't seem like it would be complicated. A CAT 5 cable goes from the airport WAN port to one of the ports on the back of the new wireless router. What did I overlook?

I thought I'd jump in here with you network experts for some help with a related networking problem.
Equipment: iMac 24-inch, Early 2009 2.93 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 2 MBP w/Retina Display; AirPort Express version 7.6.4 (Conncected Using: DHCP; Router Mode: DHCP and NAT); Comcast/Xfinity Gateway 1 Modem w/2.4 GHz WiFi.
#1. Comcast forced me to change modems to their Gateway 1 saying mine was at “End of Life.” Previously, my home network was set up with AP Express and worked fine using my iMac as a server. After installing the Gateway 1, I could not get my network to work after repeated calls to their support, online chats, trial and error, reading community chats and articles, etc. I put the Comcast modem in passive mode using the “Bridge” setting and re-established my network with my AP. I’m using my iMac as a server for file sharing with my two MBP’s. The network isn’t recognized in sleep mode and will not wake from sleep and I can’t find it or Connect to Server when the computer is asleep. I’ve tried all combinations within the Energy Saver/Screen Saver/Security preferences. I’ve reset the SMC and other like resetting to factory defaults. How can I fix this and what are the correct settings for my home network to function again with my AP Express?
#2. TimeMachine stops doing backups when the computer is in sleep mode, understandably because I’m not making any changes on the iMac that need to be backed up. But using my laptops on the network, I am making changes in shared files that are hosted on the iMac that I would like backed up. I cannot get the schedule feature to work to wake up the computer long enough to do a backup nightly because, as a security feature, I log out after 30 minutes of inactivity. I understand the schedule doesn’t work unless you’re logged in. Is there a way for me to make this work?
Thanks!

Can't get video chat to work outside of LAN...

Hello,
I can't get video chat to work.
All computers, LAN and WAN are running the latest iChat under 10.4 (including latest updates).
Within our LAN, via Bonjour, everything is fine.
I'm now trying to set up an offsite Intel iMac (10.4) and I can't connect via video chat with them.
I've had this problem in the past and eventually gave up (so much for "it just works" - I've spent the last 10+ years dealing with Macs and Mac-based networking, I can't imagine "my dad" figuring this all out). Trying again with fingers crossed...?
If someone could help, it'd be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Kristin.
The studio router/firewall is a SonicWall TZ 170 Standard.
This router has a static IP.
All suggested ports on the SonicWall are set up correctly to allow in/out from our LAN.
All computers on the LAN have static IP addresses.
Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
No iChat add-ons on any computers.
Internet connection speed = 7404 kb/s
The offside router/firewall is a LinkSys WRT54G
This router does not have a static IP.
DMZ is ON and set to the only computer connected to it.
Computer has a static IP address.
Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
No iChat add-ons on computer.
Internet connection speed = 5116 kb/s
If any more information is required to help you help me, just let me know!

Does the TZ170 have UPnP or Port Triggering then ?
I can not see that it does here
Opening the ports in the manner listed on that link will only allow one computer (IP) to use the open ports.
The Linksys is router and you have not mentioned what the modem is doing at that end.
Why not use UPnP here ? The Linksys does it (on the Administration page)
Most likely this needs the Respond to Anonymous Pings checked on the Security page.

Can't get my TC to work in Bridge mode...

I installed Time Capsule TC to my exsisting network, that has a Linksys router. Can't get my TC to work in Bridge mode. Suggestions?
I have the TC directly connected to the router and want to use the TC for wireless Time Machine back ups and to share other hardrives via
the network. I also have an old airport express for airplay speakers in one room. And an airport extreme that I thought I had set up to extend
the network wirelessly. I have yet to find a concise and clear list of steps to make this happen.
Any help would be appreciated.
Holly

The problem is the steps changed with the new airport utility..
I can tell you the steps on a 5.x utility. If you run Lion then download the real tool.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Go to manual setup.. internet tab.. connection sharing.. select off, bridge mode.. update the TC..
Wasn't too hard was it.

Can't get Lion Server to work

Hi
As written above. I can't get Lion server to work.
I have succesfully installed the program, and turn on some of the services. Then I have bought a domain, to connect to my server. But if I try to connect to my IP, from another computer, it doesn't connect. I have tried to "port forwarding" port 80 on my router, and given my Mac a static IP. I have checked with a "Check port opener" if the port 80 was in reach, it was.
So my question is, what is the next I can do to make it work. First with the IP and then with my domain?

Yes, SMTP used to work but stopped after new cert applied. IMAP works fine. Removed SSL and still doesn't work (although should it be restarted or is save for changes okay).

Can't get Home Sharing to work with ATV, v7.0.3 and iTunes 12.1.0.50

I can't get Home Sharing to work. I'm looking at my MacBook screen and iTunes says Home Sharing is On. On Apple TV, it says Turn On Home Sharing in iTunes. Both are using the same Apple ID and password (signed out and signed back in manually on both). I have tried the following: Signing out of and into Home Sharing on Apple TV and iTunes, closing iTunes and restarting the MacBook, restarting and restoring Apple TV to factory settings, restarting my router, all possible iterations of the aforementioned. Nothing seems to work. Also tried renaming my computer in preferences/sharing.
Any new ideas?
Using ATV3 software v7.0.3
iTunes software v12.1.0.50
MacBook software OS X Yosemite v10.10.2

Only have one network; wireless. On it's own, the MacBook can use wifi to surf the net and Apple TV can watch movie previews from Apple via wifi.
It did work about two months ago. I haven't used it since then for home sharing but have used the Apple TV on its own.
I read the Troubleshooting page on Apple Support. It involves turning various things on and off, which I did

Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode
Hello, I am having problems migrating data from my old PC running XP (SP3) to my new Mac Pro 2012 using the Migration Assistant.
- I downloaded and installed the Windows Migration Assistant from Apple
- My Mac recognized PC and displays passcode
- The sasscode does not show / display on my PC
- My Mac is then stuck in "authenticating" loop and the PC is stuck "waiting for Mac to connect."
- Both computers are connected on same network (have connected PC on WIFI and using ethernet to Reuter)
I have looked on support site and only response I saw says to reinstall Windows Migration Assistant (which I have done)
Any ideas? If cant get this to workare there instructions for manually bring across relevant data eg itunes music and apps, photos, picasa data etc?

Why not turn off the Windows firewall and uninstall any other firewall software you have installed?
If you are using a Norton product uninstall it and discard it. To fully unistall most Norton products you have to go to the Norton website and download a soecial program to completely get rid of it. The normal uninstall feature built into the program will not remove all of it.

I have bought a TC to extend the range of the wireless network in the house and would like someone to explain the best way to do this? My combine router/modem is supplied by Movistar(in Spain) model Xavi 7958 router ADSL with four ethernet ports.

What is the best way to extend my wireless network in the house using a TC? I currently use a combined router/modem supplied by Movistar(live in Spain) model XAVI 7958 router ADSL with four ethernet ports. What is the best configuration and can you explain what is meant by bridging and which is best to bridge for signal strenght TC or Xavi modem/router? Have ipads, iphones, apple tv...etc and want a connection them all in the whole house which, not just downstairs, to our wireless network.

You cannot wireless bridge Apple to non-apple router.. so that is out.
The only way you can do this is run ethernet or EOP adapters.. and place the TC in a location where the other apple idevices can reach it.
If you want to repeat wireless with apple routers you have to use another apple router next to the modem.. plugged in an running as an AP.
Basically the TC is the wrong piece of equipment unless you want Time Machine backups.. take it back and buy a universal repeater.. not apple. Or buy more apple stuff like an extreme or express.. one apple router is useless to you without running ethernet.

I can't get the connect to work after base installion.

Hello, everyone, I am new to Arch Linux.
I follow the installation guide install Arch Linux, Everything run pretty smooth, except at the part when I need to choose the package, I am not so sure what I am doing. So I choose everything except for the thing that I am sure I would never need.
When the installation is complete, I try to go to the next setup which update my system, but some how, I can't get the connection working, switch mean, I couldn't do anything beyond that. (both wireless and wired network, BTW I am using DSL and I do try the adsl thing)
Every thing seem make sense to me during the installation, but I just can't get the network connection working.
BTW: my laptop is a Toshiba portege M100.
Any idea?
Thanks

Try typing in:
dhcpcd eth0 (or whatever interface you are using)
and hit enter, I had the same type of problem and this woke up my network connection.
Edit: Also, once you gain your connection up and running, you might want to install ifplugd. It is a daemon which will automatically configure your Ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically unconfigure it if the cable is pulled, which is good for laptops. Once installed make sure you put it in /etc/rc.conf under the DAEMONS section.
Here is some info in the wiki http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_network

HT4356 I can't get air print to work from my iPhone 4. I've verified everything. Th phone gets WIFI from AT&T. Computer's WIFI through Netgear, Charter. How do I resolve this?

I can't get air print to work from my iPhone 4. I have newest phone operating system, and the phone is air print enabled.
The phone gets WIFI from AT&T. My computer, to which my printer is wirelessly connected, gets WIFI from Charter Communications and a Netgear router.
That must be the problem. How do I resolve that?

For Airprint to work your iPhone and printer must be on the same local network. Your printer must support Airprint (see here for list: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356).
Can you connect your iPhone to the Netgear router WiFi?
