Remot controlling a PC that uses a WRT54G router.

I have 2 WRT54G wireless routers. I would like to remote control my remote server from my main home network. In general I would like to login to my remote server and run applicates via PCAnywhere or some remote control software such as remot administrator, webex, etc. On both of my networks, I use the router to share out the internet to all the PCs on each network. Can this be done and if so how? I tried to setup a VPN connection between the networks, but I'm guessing that my ISP is not assigning me a static IP... As best I can tell, the IP address does stay constant so long as the ISP connection is not dropped. When attempting to setup the VPN connection, I used the IP address showing in the router setup. However, my home PC is not able to resolve or connect to my remote router via this IP address. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Is MicroSoft still supporting XP? Seriously, I thought they recently stopped. If that is indeed the case, the developers of the operating system have abandoned it. The latest software for anything including Apple devices, should not be expected to support systems that the original engineers have already turn their back on.

Looking for remote control App (iPhone) to use with iMovie

I just got a Macbook Air, and my infrared Apple remote control doesn't work with it.
I wanted to be able to do presentations (in this case using iMovie) and be able to have a remote so that I could pause, go back, fast forward, i.e. the usual things a remote does.
There probably is a good App that I can install on my iPhone that will let me use my iPhone as a remote control, but I don't know which one. Any suggestions???? Ideally, it would be a bluetooth program (although Wi-Fi would work too) that would also work with other programs, like Keynote.
Thanks!

Well, I don't know much about this, but if you need to control the actual system in some way, you are going to need to use JNI (Java Native Interface), which is essentially embedding C/C++ code in your java app, which doesn't lend well to platform-independence. I too develop on a Mac, and there is a mailing list for Java related issues on the Mac. You can check it out at: http://developer.apple.com/java/
If you sign up for ADC (Apple Developer Connection, it's free), you can have access to these mailing lists. They've been quite helpful to me in the past. I don't mean to slam the forums here, but you are looking for a Mac specific solution, and you'd probably get more specific information on this mailing list. Hope this helps!!

Need Sceptre TV Remote Control code(s) that work with VZ P265v3RC -- the '335' code does NOT

Recently upgraded my TV's in my house with new Sceptre 40" and 50" TV's - thank you WalMart. Purchased in September 2014. (new / current Sceptre TVs).
All of the Verizon printed, online, and other documentation for the P265V3 RC (model RC2655005/01B) for Sceptre shows to use code '335'. I have tried the '335' code on both of the TV's and no worky at all.
Following the 'Quick Setup Guide-Verizon FIOS remote' steps (paper/PDF instructions with RC Manual):
I can successfully enter the '335' code as outlned in step 4... and 'The RED LED will blink twice and then stay on'. occurs. So far, so good.
Step 5 states, "5. Press and release the <CH +> button repeatedly until the TV turns off......." This happens perfectly... I can press the <CH+>> button a few times, and indeed, my TV turns off.
Now, onto Step 6: "Test that the remote control is programmed for your TV"..... can't get Mute, A/V, other keys to activate /. be recognized - even though I'm followijng "press and hold that key. Release it as soon as it works"
Does anyone have a working code for Sceptre TV's ??? The Verizon '335' code doesn't work for me.
I need the 'best code' anyone has found that works with new Sceptre TV's.... the 335 code that VZ recommends... no worky.

Robertop,
have you tried the following? The info below is found here
Turn on your TV and the FiOS TV Set-Top Box.
Make sure you can see live TV.
Press and hold the OK and FiOS TV buttons together then release both buttons.
The red LED light blinks 2 times and then stays on.
Press and hold the Play button.
The remote control tries a new TV code every second.
The red LED light blinks each time a new code is sent.
When the TV turns off, release the Play button immediately.
NOTE: Some TVs may respond slower than others. If necessary, you can press the Ch+ and Ch- buttons to go forward or backward one TV code at a time.
Test your remote to ensure it is working properly:
- Turn on the TV by pressing the TV button on your FiOS TV remote.
- Press the Vol+ and Vol- buttons to ensure that you can control the volume.
- Press the Mute and A/V buttons to ensure they work.
If any of these buttons do not work, press and hold that button. Release the button as soon as it works.
If all the buttons work, press OK to this TV remote code.
The red LED light blinks 3 times and then turns off. Your remote control is now programmed.

Is there a way to remotely control my iPad 2 using my iPhone?

I use my iPad in my car to entertain my child while driving and I would like to know if there is a way to change the movie he is watching (in the backseat) using my iPhone while I am sitting in the front seat? I think it would be great if I don't have to physically remove the iPad from its headrest mount to change to a different show.

A google search produced nothing in the App Store which will let your iPhone remotely control an iPad's video play.

Help! Extremely slow Internet speed using Linksys WRT54G router

I have an eMac running OS 10.3.9 and wired to a Linksys WRT54G router using ethernet cable. I have to use this router for my work PC. I'm also using WildBlue satellite internet. The problem is, I'm getting about 1.5 Mbps on my PC, but less than 33 Kbps on my eMac. It was running faster before using dial-up. I've called WildBlue and Linksys tech support, and they can't help. Can anyone help?
By the way, my son is using his iBook on the same router, only wireless, and he's happy with the speed he's getting compared to dial-up.
Thanks,
Eric

1400 kbps is a lot nicer than 33 kbps, isn't it? You can possiblly tweak it a little more --- I know I've seen a MTU of 1460 mentioned --- since you can also revert back to the 1400 MTU setting you found.
(Broadband Optimizer is in one sense a nice GUI to the terminal commnads you found and used.)
One more thing to be aware of, satellite internet is subject to longer latency times than cable or DSL, due to the unavoidable geometry of bouncing data packets off a satellite in orbit. That could be an issue if you ever want to play real-time online multiplayer adventure type games. It shouldn't be an issue for being able to grab OS updates in minutes instead of hours, through. Enjoy your broadband access!

Seeing Vista resources using a wrt54g router

I currently have 2 wireless xp machines that work fine sharing resources through the wrt54g router. My wired vista machine (through the wrt54g router) can see the 2 xp machines but the xp machines can not see the vista machine. The 2 xp machines the network name is "krizmanic" (that is the name of our wireless network) on the vista machine the network name is "network" (don't know where that came from).
How can I get the wireless xp machines to see the resources on the wired vista machine? Do I need to change the network name of the vista machine (if so how do I change the name)?
Thanks

Can't connect remote PC with Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac after using a new router

I'm using a Windows 8.1 computer as a HTPC to download files and I set it logins automatically and I just need to press the power button then use RD for Mac to control the HTPC without extra monitor, keyboard...
Here is the problem: After I took my Mac and HTPC to another place, I can't connect it with new router now. (I change the PC name to new local IP, nothing else changed)
It shows on screen that:
Unable to connect to remote PC. Please verify Remote Desktop is enabled, the remote PC is turned on and available on the network, and then try again.
I can use shared disk drive of the HTPC on my Mac so I know the connection works.
Thanks!

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Generally, if it is a home network environment, please use IP address of the target computer as the PC name.

Remote Control with Touch Screen Devices

I have encountered some trouble using CM's Remote Control with touch-enabled devices. It seems that the cursor on my screen thinks that it is in a different place than the cursor on the remote screen.
Both devices have been Dell Latitude E-series laptops. It is possible that this is isolated to these. Has anyone else encountered this? Remote Assistance seems to work fine, but that lacks in so many other ways compared to Remote Control.
This is using Remote Control with SCCM 2012 R2 just to clarify in case there are any differences between the various CM versions.
Any input would be appreciated.

We use ELO touch screens and some Dell Venue 11 Pro Tablets, and I haven't experienced any of the problems that you are talking about...
I know that's not helpful but thought I'd throw my experiences in.

Msi tv tuner remote control

Can't use the remote control while running tv tuner. It has never worked since installed. tv tuner works fine using the keyboard.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

About ten years ago, when Macs with the optional Apple TV/Video System were relatively new, some users reported that their computers were being turned ON/OFF by their Sony remote control. Because Sony is primarily a manufacturer and not just a distributor selling outsourced electronic products, it continued to use the same IR frequencies for many product models. This is why you usually see fewer Sony codes to try, when programming a universal remote control. Anyway, that's what I'd recommend, starting with the oldest Sony codes first. I don't know if all remote control functions will be activated, but it's worth a try.

Remote control don't work whith Home theatre after SP2 upgrade

I have just done a complete upgrade to windows XP SP2, I execute my Home Theatre 2.0 program , now it works ok but i have a problem:
- i cant get the remote for the PC to work with the program is there anything im doing wrong?
I have tried to reinstal tv-tuner drivers, but i don't want to use the tv@anywhere mini-remote control, i want to use the msi remote controler how before the upgrade.
do i need reinstall other drivers?
Cheers for any help you can give me
MSI MEGA PC 865
windows 98 XP whith SP2

I too have this exact same issue. The play, stop, forward, reverse buttons don't do anything, and also the sound buttons, they activate the volume window but not adjustment of the volume happens. The only buttons that work are the opening of applications and the power button. All this happened after I installed some free updating software for some other paid and free applications I have (Advanced SystemCare Professional), all quite legitiment, as a result there were corrupt icons and I had to uninstall the offending software and some corrupted software including Microsoft Office beta and reinstall... no viruses were found on a full Zonealarm scan. I have the DV6-2113TX on Win-7. If ANYONE has a clue how to fix the full functionality of the remote, please let me know as it's really niggling me that it just doesn't work even after reinstalling the drivers for the IR etc.
I tried contacting HP online and I get NO replies. I am yet to phone. It is still under warranty with 20 months left (8 months manufacturer, 12 months supplier).
cheers

Remote Control and MediaSourc

I hava an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro. I formated my HD last night and reinstalled XP. I then installed the new drivers and Media Source 5 and new DTS Neo plugin. But when I tried to install the old Remote Control plugin, it didn't work, it said I don't have a new Media Source. I couldn't find a new version of the plugin (compatible with media source 5), so, how am I supposed to make remote control work?ThxClaudio Lima[url=mailto:[email protected]">[email protected][/url]?

It is a known issue that the remote does not work in MediaSource 5.
See this thread....
http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=soundblaster&message.id=85763
You only alternati'ves are to:
. Go back to MediaSource 3.
2. Find alternati've Remote control software solutions that work regardless of the version of MediaSource. There are many alternati'ves if you search these forums.
Hope that helps!

Can do everything but Remote Control.

I have a 99 client Pro subscription. One particular computer will let me login and do everything but Remote Control. I can use the File Manger, Chat, etc. Remote Control client shows an error after it tries to authenticate. Other clients work just fine.

Tecra 750: Question about Infrared and TV remote control

Hi there,
I am wondering if anyone can help. I have an old Tecra 750 which I am using as an audio system to play my MP3 collection. It has an Infrared detector on it and I was wondering if it is possible to use this to receive IR from a TV remote control so I can use a remote to navigate my audio files. Does anyone know how to do this or where I could find out how? Is there any freeware to help perhaps? Is it even possible?
Thanks!

Hi,
The computer uses IRDA infra red and this is not compatible with the type of infra red used by normal remotes.
You could get an external infra red remote control which will plug into the USB port.

How do I share internet using WRT54G router?

I have a computer that is connected to the internet, and it has 2 Ethernet ports. I'm using 1 of them to connect to the internet, and I want to use my WRT54G router to connect to the internet through the second Ethernet port, for my wireless devices. Is this possible? If so, how would I set it up. I have it plugged in right now, but it says limited or no connectivity on my computer, and it doesn't appear to be working on my wireless device.

It is something like this. Unplug the Ethernet cable from the computer and plug it to the internet port of the router. Now install another cable from port 1 in router to your ethernet port in your computer. Port 2 to second computer, etc. You will need a wireless adapter on each computer if you want to go wireless.
Now, you have to configure your router. Either use the CD or connect it manually.
Log on to router using 192.168.1.1 and use admin as password. Leave username blank.
Click on Wireless. Now change the SSID to something other than Linksys. Ex. Yankee. Click on save.
Click on Wireless Security. Change mode to WPA2 Personal. Change Algorithms to TKPS+AES. Make up a passphrase (8 charactors or more) Click on Save.
Now go to computer with wireless adaptor and look for your wireless network (ex. Yankee Secured Network) Click on it then connect. It should ask you for the key. Put the passphrase you set up in router.

No remote control of Playbook OS 2.0 with handheld 9780

Am I missing something here?
I spent 2.5 hours trying every configuration I can think of and still no option for remote control of my Playbook using the handheld. Yes, I did attempt to follow the PDF instructions first, and second, and... Then just gave up and started deleting apps, re-installing apps, re-initiating pairings, etc.
Remote control of the Playbook appears to be a missed target for RIM.

How my bb and pb work well and now issues. maybe something in not correctly setup. are there any other devices running on Bluetooth while using the remote application?
