Report on Airport Utility when connecting Access Points to Airport Extreme

I have a plan to upgrade my Access Points for a better bandwidth of speed rate of wireless connection in my local connection.
There are the lasted model of Airport Extreme, and 2* Airport Express. Both of the Airport Express are connecting to Extreme by CAT5E.
The speed transfer will always be limited at 100Mbps, due to the limitation of Ethernet port in Airport Express.
The question is, if I replace Airport Express with other brands that support up to 600Mbps with USB support for printer, what would it be reported in Airport Utility.
Would I still be able to manage as an Acces Point through the Utility, and use it for printing server.

Mmmm, if you replace those expresses with 3'rd party routers, you may run into some issues there.

  • Indirectly Connected Access points

    Hi all, i'm just after a little clarification.
    According to the Cisco 3850 QA sheet, (http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps12686/qa_c67-722110.html), this unit does not support indirectly connected AP's.
    Q.
    Does the Cisco Catalyst 3850 support indirectly connected access points?
    A. No. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 switch will always terminate the CAPWAP tunnel locally. Pass-through mode or indirectly connected access point is not supported at this time.
    What doesnt make sense to me is that i can buy 50 AP licenses per switch/wlc so i don't understand how i am going to attach these AP's to the 3850.
    In our current setup we have a 5508 connected to a Cat4506 with all the AP's connected to an "AP vlan" on the Cat4506 - fairly typical setup i imagine.
    We couldnt have each AP connected directly to the 3850 do to cabling and multiple buildings.
    Any clarification would be appreciated,
    Cheers,

    the asnwer to that is a bit farther down.
    Q.
    How is the access point count license managed across a Cisco Catalyst 3850 stack?
    A. The total access point count license of a Cisco Catalyst 3850 stack is equal to the sum of all the individual member access point count licenses, up to a maximum of 50 access points. When new members are added to the stack, the total access point count license of the stack is automatically recalculated. When members are removed from the stack, the access point count license does not decrement until a reload of the stack.
    teh 3850 is designed to have AP's terminate in the closets vs coming all the way back to the core.

    Yes i am hoping staff here will look into things, even if i can not get the speeds back what i previously had for near 6 months it would be nice to know why i can not and why the download has dropped by around 10Mb and why my upload is now inconsistant.
    Ironically the post concerned got edited because i actually posted the full rather silly reply the Indian call centre made babbling on about down rates rather than the uprate i queried with them.
    Bit of a shambles really no real way on BTs web site to contact anyone with regards to broadband issues.
    The form which you kindly suggested and i appreciated your help ended up in the hands of someone who either did not bother to read the query or just had such a poor grasp of English they did not understand the query.
    Pretty pathetic really when BT are the largest telco in the UK. I think ill be taking my broadband business elsewhere regardless at the end of my 18 month contract, while im sure staff here are wonderful and may even yet help me, i do not particularly want to go through the almost like pulling teeth pain of getting any future issue looked at.
    They are great at quickly fixing voice line problems and have a great test on their site. Broadband side of things and support for that though seems a shambles.

  • Cannot determine MAC address of connected Access Point using Access Connections version 5

    I recently installed the newst version of Access Connections (version 5) and discovered I am unable to determine the MAC address of the connected access point.  The 'Graphical' screen shows the SSID, IP address of client etc - but does not show the MAC address of the access point.  The 'Details' screen shows the MAC address of the access points - but the radial button on the left does not indicate the cfurrently associated access point.

    Is it the switch where the node is directly connected ?
    Is the NIC at node side, working fine ?
    Another fact to consider is, a mac will wipe itself out after the MAC-age timeout.

  • Connecting Access point through wireless

    Hi there can anybody guide me whether i can connect one cisco access point though wired connection. and rest of the access points will be aquiring the ip address from the wired connected access point without using any wired connectivity? Is it possible if yes how can i implement that and how feasible it is?
    Please i am in urgent need. Thanks in advance

    An Access Point is designed to only pass traffic for WIRELESS clients ONLY. It will not pass traffic for wired clients that are communicating to a bridge, (unless it is a Working Group bridge.)

  • SmartConnect fails when GPRS access point configur...

    I am trying to configure SmartConnect to cycle between a Wi-Fi and a GPRS access point.
    The GPRS access point allows only HTTP/HTTPS traffic through a proxy server (this is a limitation of my service package through the mobile operator; direct Internet connectivity is much more expensive).
    When using an HTTP application (e.g. Opera, Gmail) directly with the GPRS access point, everything works fine.
    However, if I use the application with the SmartConnect access point, the connection fails.
    Just for testing, I replaced the GPRS access point with one that allows direct internet connectivity without a proxy server (at a much higher cost) -  everything worked fine.
    So, I concluded that this is a bug in SmartConnect - they didn't take into account the fact that the access point may work only through a proxy server, and maybe they do some kind of connectivity check that is not HTTP and that fails. I tried to look everywhere support contact information for Birdstep but couldn't find any.
    Has anybody encountered this? Or does anyone have contact information for Birdstep's support? I am guessing the fix probably super-simple.
    ==============================================
    Summary of my settings:
    Device: Nokia E51
    Access Points under Connection settings:
        1 - "Home WLAN" - WiFi, my home WLAN network
        2 - "IL Orange WAP" - GPRS with Proxy Server that allows HTTP/HTTPS to the Internet (and unlimited WAP)
        3 - "IL Orange Internet" - GPRS without proxy server that allows direct Internet connectivity without limitations
    SmartConnect configuration that doesn't work:
        Priority 1: "Home WLAN"
        Priority 2: "IL Orange WAP"
    SmartConnect configuration that does work:
        Priority 1: "Home WLAN"
        Priority 2: "IL Orange Internet"
    Does SmartConnect perform some connectivity check prior to "releasing" the connection to the applications?
    ===================================================

    Just got this from Birdstep's support:
    "SmartConnect is not using the proxy setting of the connection. This is known problem with SmartConnect. Currently there is no fix or workaround for it".
    So that seems to be the end of it, for now at least.

  • Display MAC (media access control) address of connected access point.

    Hi all! Sorry if this is already posted somewhere but I tried searching and was having difficulty because of the word MAC having multiple meanings here.
    Anyways I want to be able to view the MAC (media access control) address of the access point I am connected to. Is this possible? I can't find it in System Preferences. Is there a terminal command that would allow me to see it? Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks!

    I'm looking at it right now. In the top portion, next to the active graph, it has the SSID of my access point. In the table beneath that, my access point is the first on the list, and the MAC address is clearly visible.
    Second if I click on my access point in the list, the MAC address appears, temporarily at the bottom of the window.
    For comparison, in the iStumbler preferences, on the AirPort tab, I have only "Auto-Select Best Network" & "Keep on Top" selected.

    Hi Peera,
    the first message is because the user switched quickly between SSIDs. This is a behavior that WLC blocks by default.
    Change the option "Fast SSID change" to enabled if you want to stop that blocking.
    The second message simply means that the client was not configured for wpa/wpa2 ... This is something I can hardly comment on since I can't see the client configuration

  • Wireless Client Authentication issues when roaming Access Points (Local)

    I have a Cisco 5508 with Software version 7.4.121.0 and Field Recovery 7.6.101.1.
    There are a handful of clients that when roaming between AP's with the same SSID that get an authentication issue and have to restart the wireless to get back on.
    From Cisco ISE
    Event
    5400 Authentication failed
    Failure Reason
    11514 Unexpectedly received empty TLS message; treating as a rejection by the client
    Resolution
    Ensure that the client's supplicant does not have any known compatibility issues and that it is properly configured. Also ensure that the ISE server certificate is trusted by the client, by configuring the supplicant with the CA certificate that signed the ISE server certificate. It is strongly recommended to not disable the server certificate validation on the client!
    Root cause
    While trying to negotiate a TLS handshake with the client, ISE expected to receive a non-empty TLS message or TLS alert message, but instead received an empty TLS message. This could be due to an inconformity in the implementation of the protocol between ISE and the supplicant. For example, it is a known issue that the XP supplicant sends an empty TLS message instead of a non-empty TLS alert message. It might also involve the supplicant not trusting the ISE server certificate for some reason. ISE treated the unexpected message as a sign that the client rejected the tunnel establishment.
    I am having a hard time figuring out what is causing this. My assumption is if there were a problem with the Controller or AP configurations then it would happen to everyone. My further assumption is if the client had a problem with their laptop (windows 7) then why does work at other times? So I have checked and the ISE certificate is trusted by client.
    Is something happening that the previous access point is holding on to the mac and the return authentication traffic is going to the old AP instead of the new one or something like that which is corrupting the data?
    I also had this from Splunk for the same client:
    Mar 5 13:44:51 usstlz-piseps01 CISE_Failed_Attempts 0014809622 1 0 2015-03-05 13:44:51.952 +00:00 0865003824 5435 NOTICE RADIUS: NAS conducted several failed authentications of the same scenario
     FailureReason="12929 NAS sends RADIUS accounting update messages too frequently"
    Any help on this would be appreciated. These error messages give me an idea but doesn't give me the exact answer to why the problem occurred and what needs to be done to fix it.
    Thanks

  • E5 Packet data connection/access point

    I was just wondering what this is.
    I think I don't need it being as I don't have a "Data Package" set up with AT&T...am I right?
    If I'm wrong, what to do next.

    This would be needed for internet access and mms usage on your phone. Internett access only if you're thinking about surfing on the network. Wlan does not require any data packet connection over the phone network but will be saved as an access point though.
    You will also need a packet data connection for using A-gps as it needs a few kb to locate the phone through the network.
    But you can use the gps without agps.
    So if you don't plan on browsing internett on the phone network, you don't need a packet data connection for that/ acces point.
    If you don't need to send mms, you don't need one for that either, but those acces points are separeted from each others.
    If you can not send mms, but you want to, you will probably be able to order the settings (accesspoint) from your providers web page. It will usually be in form of a text message sent to your phone. Same for the other access points.
    Did this help you in any way or was it just confusing?
    A Packet data connection will pretty much be an access point for internet/mms/wap over your network.
    Using you wlan will be installed as a access point too, but that will of course be free (or just cost what you pay to have your internett).

  • Connecting ACCESS point

    guys i have a cable broadband installed in my home i just bought cisco 1200 series access point...now can someone please guide me how to configure my access point.....i beleive i have to plugged fastethernet cable coming out of my cable modem to access point after that???? what i have to do ....do ihve to configure the cable modem as wlel or not??? many thanks

    The first question is whether or not you need the AP to do NAT? If you were to have used a Linksys or other switch+ap with built in nat/router then you would already be covered.
    To answer this question, does your provider give you a registered or unregistered address? If they give you an unregistered address, then you do not need nat. However, most providers only give out one address for home users. If that is the case, you will need to use NAT and DHCP on the AP to allow multiple machines access.
    The best thing to do is configure the AP with an IP address and then connect to the web interface to complete the config.
    Start here for guides as to how to configure the AP.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/wireless/ps430/tsd_products_support_series_home.html
    You might also need a crossover cable from the modem to the AP.

  • Crystal Report not showing fields when connected to a stored procedure

    I have a Stored Procedure that returns results when run in SQL Server, but when I add this to a Crystal Report it doesn't show any fields in the Field Explorer. But if I try any other SP, it works fine and I can see its fields.
    As you can see in the picture below, I am unable to expand the fields in the report while creating the report using standard report procedure too.
    I tried different ways, but nothing worked for me here. Please help me here.
    (FYI, I am using Crystal Reports 2008, SQL Server 2008R2)

    Hi Jamie,
    I just found out the reason for this issue.
    I wrote the stored procedure using the fields in the Datamart but the fields in the datamart in backend are connected to a different database which doesn't have SQL Server Authentication (for the Credentials) and that's the reason I was getting this issue.
    Once my BI team granted the permission, for that fields connecting to the backend database, I was able to see all fields in the Crystal Report.

    You need to put the IP address in the hosts file.
    Also verify if your Default Gateway at networking level is configured for the NIC. The Default Gateway information could be displayed executing 'netstat -anr'.
    Also check the network through nslookup.
    Is http service is running?
    How many network adapters are there?
    Has IP address changed?

  • WLAN access point "missing" when connection alread...

    Hello,
    I have an E63 with version 400.21.013 firmware.  However, I have experienced this problem from day one.  I do not have a data plan but I use WLAN at various locations, and there is a list of access points in the Settings.
    I have a home access point configured with WPA2 and I have all the settings saved in the Connection Manager (or is it WLAN Wizard - I don't know).  When the phone is not connected to any AP and I use a program that wants data, it will almost always show the "Home" AP in the list which appears right after "Searching for available access points" is briefly displayed.  "Home" shows up right below Search for WLAN.  There is no problem making the first connection.
    However, if the "Home" AP is already in use and I open another program that wants data, at times it will not show my Home AP in the list.  If "Searching for available access points" is only displayed for a split second, "Home" will not be in the list.  Sometimes I can close the program and open it again and if "Searching for available access points" stays on screen for about a second, then "Home" will be on the list and I can connect.  Sometimes I will have to try 3, 4, 5 times, and sometimes it will never "see" the AP unless I disconnect the WLAN and start all over.
    Right at this moment, there is no problem.  I can open program after program and connect via my "Home" AP. But it is frustrating when it does happen.  Has anyone seen this or found a remedy?
    Thanks. 

    Have you tried changing the WLAN channel (i.e. frequency) of your home WLAN access point / router?
    Try switching between few different channels (like 1, 3, 6, 9, 11) to see if some channel happens to work more reliably. It is possible that there is some radio interference (neighbouring WLAN networks, cordless phones, Bluetooth devices etc.) on the currently used WLAN channel, causing phone to discover this network less reliably.
    In case your WLAN access point / router includes 802.11n support, make sure that your AP's "channel width" is set to a standard 20MHz mode (instead 20/40MHz).
    This is a bit long shot suggestion (just guessing), but if switching the WLAN channel related setting on the AP doesn't help then you could also try editing your phone's access point (the one created for you home WLAN network, under Tools -> Settings -> Connection -> Access Points) so that your phone should consider this particular WLAN network as an "Hidden SSID" (even if network really isn't hidden) by changing the "Network status" setting from Public to Hidden.
