Searching for PPPoE?

This is what my my airport icon keeps saying..anyone know anything about this?

RichB
I tried this, and yes the searching for PPPoE stopped, but my Airport went to flashing amber and I was not conencting to the internet via my base station. I could still conenct to other networks without trouble.
From what I know my isp does require me to connect (dsl) using PPPoE. The only time I get the green light is when it is set-up for Connect using Ethernet, PPPoE in the Admin Utility section. I have it now to conenct using PPPoE everywhere and not working....but can still connect to other networks....
Gosh I hope this can be figured out......is it the modem? This is MTS TV and uses a unit that does the digital TV and has the modem in it too. And I am using a very long ethernet cable....who knows. I do get the green light though.

Airport searches for PPPoE

I have my mac mini which i was using the airport for my wireless router but i tried to go on Safari and it said it could not connect so i tried the network diagnostics and it went through this setup but i'm not sure what to put in and now it says that it can't find a PPPoE so i had to use my Ethernet to connect to it to write this...How would i get it back to working order as it was doing before with no problems...Thanks

If your provider won't tell you then you must use their provided router.. some ISP are like that.

Looking for PPPoE host BUT connected to the Internet

Hi, so I have a home network that consists of a BritePort 8012-G1 which is set-up to connect to earthlink DSL using PPPoE with its login and password. The DSL modem is set in half-bridge mode (I am thinking of switching it to full bridge mode and authenticating with the airport extreme instead but that is really not my problem... if you have suggestions either way on this topic feel free to post in this thread but that is not the issue I want resolved) and passes ip and dns server information correctly to the airport extreme. The airport extreme is setup to share the internet connection using DHCP and NAT. There are 6 devices that connect to the airport extreme, 5 of which work perfectly. The ones that work are a Mac Pro running 10.5.4 connected through ethernet, a Macbook Pro running 10.5.4 connected through wifi, two iphones that connect using wifi when in the apartment and a nintendo wii also connecting through wifi. The last device, the one causing problems, is a macbook pro running 10.4.11 which is connecting through wifi.
The problem with this last computer is that when it connects to the airport extreme base station it continually says looking for PPPoE host in the menu bar. The strange thing is that the computer is connecting to the internet (you can browse the net and download stuff) even though it is showing the message. Even stranger is that in TCP/IP it doesn't show any DNS information (it should show the airport extreme). I had never had this happen before, but I recently changed the security settings on the airport from WPA/WAP2 to only have WAP2 so I thought that maybe by reversing it to the old setting the message would go away, but it didn't happen. You may all wonder why I think its a problem if I can still surf the net and download stuff, well first of all seeing the message is annoying, but more importantly it seems to have an effect on the speed at which I can surf the web on that computer. It is much slower than the other devices on the network and maybe it is even slowing down the network as a whole.
Just so you know, I have looked to make sure that all the use PPPoE settings are off in both the airport and ethernet configuration for this particular laptop. I have even turned them on and back off for good measure but it seems to make no difference. I have disconnected myself from the router and re-connected hundred of times.
Thank you for you time!

PS Yes I have searched the forums before posting but everything I found about looking for PPPoE host had people not connected to the internet

I can't connect to my ISP using PPoE either using Firmware 7.3.2. I had to downgrade to 7.3.1 to connect to the PPoE.

Configure ATM on cisco router 1841 for PPPoE

Hi Geeks,
I have searched the net with answers but still no success to achieving what I needed.
My scenario, I 'am replacing my Netcom with a cisco 1841 router. Now, I need advise or better guided steps on how to configure my ATM interface for PPPoE to connect to my ISP network. With the netcom its easy since its uses GUI and connection picks up automatically as long username and password are correct to connect to ISP.
Appreciate any help here?
Thank you.

from the sounds of it you purchased a '4 port WAN Interface Card' to be put into your router.
(the HWIC4 cannot be used to create a 'DMZ' as you require; you will need additional Ethernet interfaces, not WAN interfaces)
a few things first...
1) yes you have increased the routers ability to serve more than one network. with an HWIC4, you can configure upto 4 more WAN segments that the router can route for.
2) if you had a 4 port Ethernet Card, then you could configure each interface to act like a DMZ, but without proper security in place, it will not be much more than a 'hop' from one network to another.
NOTE: you need to build very detailed, granular access lists to filter traffic if you wish to have any chance of provding the slightest amount of security to your inside users & hosts.
(a firewall will provide you better security control and DMZ definition and is a recommended best practice for the solution you're looking for)
your DMZ definition says it all, "...subnet between a trusted network and an untrusted network..."
firewalls inherently provide a 'trusted' interface, an 'untrusted' interface and one or more 'less than trusted' or DMZ interfaces.
routers do not inherently provide this type of security segregation. you should be using a firewall to provide your solution and security in this case.

I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. Any suggestions?

I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. The drive is not listed in Disk Utility. Any suggestions?

Is the computer in you equipment line:
Dual Core Intel Xenon
(which is not a PowerMac but a Mac Pro) the one you are asking about, or do you have an older PowerMac?
If a Mac Pro, their forums are here:
Mac Pro
and, as Mac Pros have a totally different architecture from the pre-2005 Macs this forum covers, you may not have the same issues that can affect the older models. If someone didn't notice your equipment line, you could get advice that doesn't apply.
If you really have a pre-2005 PowerMac, read on.
If the stubborn external is USB and does not have its own power brick (i.e., it gets power only from the computer's UBS ports--"bus powered"), it may not be getting enough power. As electric motors age, they can demand more power than when new, and the power available on any USB port is limited.
The typical workabouts to making a computer recognize an aging, bus-powered USB drive are:
Get a powered USB hub (has its own power brick
Get a "Y" USB cable: 1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
The second gets power from two USB ports on the computer and often that's enough.
Remember that the USB ports on your keyboard seldom provide enough power even for a thumb drive, so be sure to use the USB ports on the back of the computer.

Windows 8 hangs or freezes whenever search for anything

Rebuild the Index
Whenever you try to search for something in windows, its indexing which find the things quickly and brings that to you.If indexing is disabled or corrupt computer won't be able to search and will not present the search results.Windows uses the index to perform very fast searches on your computer.
The index requires almost no maintenance. However, if the index can't find a file that you know exists in an indexed location, you might need to rebuild the index. Rebuilding the index can take several hours, and searches might be incomplete until the index is fully rebuilt.
Go to Control panel and open Indexing Options.
Click the Advanced button at the bottom of the Indexing Options window. This displays a new window titled Advanced Options.
Click the Index Settings tab if it isn’t selected already.
Click the Rebuild button to delete and rebuild the file index.
Click OK to confirm.
For more information on Advance indexing option you can read article on microsoft's website http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows7/change-advanced-indexing-options
Step 2 will always fix this issue but just in case its not helpful try the next Step 3.
3.Check the Registry Value
Manual Fix 1
1. Press Windows Key + R to get the run dialogue box.
2. Type "regedit.exe" in the box and hit enter.
3. Using the box on the left, navigate to the following directory:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
4. We need to change a registry called "Start_SearchFiles" to a value of 2. If you are like me, yours is already 2. We need to reset this so what we are going to do it change it to 0, then back to 2.
5. Double-click Start_SearchFiles or right-click and select "Modify" to get the edit box. Change the number under "Value data" to 0 then click "Ok".
6. Repeat step 5, changing the value back to 2.

Hi,
Regarding current information we can't say that it related to this exe file.
We need to use Clean boot mode and Safe mode to test the results:
Please first restart the Windows in Clean boot and see if the issue still persists after reboot:
How to perform a clean boot
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
If the issue doesn’t appear, you can determine which one can be the cause by using dichotomy in MSconfig. Checking on half of Non-Microsoft service and restart, determining which half of the services cause the issue and repeating to check half of the problematic
half services.
If the issue still persists in Clean boot mode, please test in Safe mode.
Let me know the results in Safe mode.
If we cannot identify this issue in Clean boot and safe mode, please help to collect the boot trace and let's see what cause this issue:

Iphone 5s - Calls Breaking Up - Searching for Network

Hello.
I recently started using my new Iphone 5s and I have a big problem.
Every call I get or make, the call suddenly breaks up during the first minute. My network reception bar drops to 1 bar, then says "searching..." briefly, and then it comes back. But the call is already gone. There are no problems when I remake the call. But I get this problem with every single call that I make. I've never had a problem with my Iphone 4 for 2 years, so I don't think it's about my carrier. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? Any suggestions?

I have the same problem. My phone keeps "Searching..." for network, and if I don't fix it, it can go on like that for days. I tried several solutions, Reset Network Settings, Reset All Settings, hard reset, and finally I restored my iphone to factory settings then re installed ios 8.1.3, which I had trouble doing because my phone took 4 days to finally have a successful restore. I am not sure if this is about updating to ios 8.1.3, but all of this happened to my iphone 5s a few days after updating. Anyway, after my phone had miraculously went thru with the restore, my phone was back to the way it was, but after 2 days, it went back to searching for network again whenever I get to an area with poor signal. I put phone in Airplane mode for about 10-20 mins, then turn off Airplane mode to check if signal is back. If it still doesnt, I reset network settings, then airplane mode again. I have not yet used reset all settings since my iPhone restore. I tried to google and see if this really is an ios problem or just my case, then I came across your question. The latest fix I did just this morning is I plugged my phone to my wall charger and tried to dial a number and pressing the green call button several times until the signal went back. That was by far the simplest solution I have discovered, but I still can't say if that IS the solution because it was just my first time to do it. I advise you not to restore your phone because in my case, mine took 4 days to until i was able to use my phone again since restoring wasn't working. You don't want to end up with a dead brick phone. With mine, I just kept trying until it went thru and I don't think I will be doing the restore all over again because of what happened. I hope this is just a problem with ios update and that apple will soon find a permanent fix to this.

My podcast has been accepted by apple and has been working on the itunes store for a few years until recently. If I search for it I can see some of the episodes but no matter which store I am in I am told I can't few the episodes in my current store

I have a podcast that has been submitted to itunes a few years back that has been working just fine. The person updating it broke it a few months back, I have fixed the error and reformatted it but the podcast still doesn't work. If I go in itunes and choose to open stream and connect to the podcast URL there, then it works just fine, but If I search for it in the itunes store (search: Jubilee Community Church) then a couple of the episodes show up (see The Art of Marriage by Stephen van Rhyn) but if I click on any of them it just tells me that my podcast is not available in the current store. But I submitted it from the UK store and it is not even available on that store. I have send numerous emails to Apple Support but they have been incredibly unhelpful. I hoped it would update overtime and start working again but its been a month and still nothing, I can't get hold of anyone technical from itunes support to reload my podcast or tell me whats wrong, I can't even resubmit my podcast because it's already been submitted and therefore won't allow me too. I've run out of options, any help would be appreciated!

A 4th gen iPod can not be upgraded to iOS 8. 7.0.2 is the high version it can run.

Why isn't my iTunes store loading properly? It lists everything in text without images, and I can't seem to access the store when I try to search for music or movies etc.

1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
If you've done something different then provide some more details about what is where and I should be able to help.
2) Purchases on the device should automatically transfer to a Purchased on <DeviceName> playlist, but it my depend a bit on whether automatic iCloud downloads are enabled. If there is a cloudy link then the transfer might not happen. You can use File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. In iTunes you should also check out iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
3) Backup the device, then immediately restore it. In some cases you need to add a restore as new device into that equation. Obbviously not to be attempted until you're sure all your media is in your library. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device should it be needed.
4) I believe there is complimentary 1 incident 90-day support with hardware purchases, but no free software support for iTunes itself. AppleCare gets you a different level of support.

In Pages document, how do I search for word and view its frequency and page numbers in a sidebar?

I have a long document and I want to be able to search for certain key words and phrases, and then see how many times they appear in the document and exactly where. How do I conduct this sort of search and viewing? In the past, in Pages and Word, I've been able to view my "finds" in a sidebar but I can't figure out how to activate that service anymore.
Thanks!

Here is a word frequency concordance Automator Service that works in both versions of Pages. It does not present a page number reference. It is by descending count, and alphabetically, within the repetitive counts as shown in the image here. In any document, you select the text to process, then Menu > Application Name > Services > Frequency. The Service will open TextEdit with the n-pages of scrollable results. It is 16 pt Helvetica Neue for legibility.
Here is the code:
on run {input, parameters}
     try
          set mySelection to input as text
          set formatted_result to concordance(mySelection)
          if formatted_result is not null then
               set textHeading to "Word Frequency List"
               tell application "TextEdit"
               activate
                     set NewDoc to make new document with properties {name:"Concordance"}
                     make new paragraph at beginning of text of NewDoc with data textHeading & return
                     make new paragraph at end of text of NewDoc with data formatted_result
                     tell text of NewDoc
                           set font to "Helvetica Neue"
                           set size to 16
                           set color of paragraph 1 to {0, 0, 65535}

Launch /Applications/Automator and choose New Document, then click the Service icon, and then select the Choose button.
On the left, you will have a list of Libraries from which to choose workflow items. Find Library > Utilities. In the adjacent column, locate the Run Applescript workflow. Click on it, then drag and drop it in the large workflow window to your right.
At the top, you can select Service receives text in any application. Leave Output replaces selected text unchecked.
In your Run AppleScript workflow window, you will see AppleScript boilerplate. Click on it and press command+A, then backspace to delete this content. Copy and paste the above code into this Run AppleScript workflow window. Press the Run button in Automator's upper right corner. If (and it should) a TextEdit window pops up, you are good, and you want to press File > Save. A dialog box will pop-up where you can name your Service. I called my Frequency, you may wish to call it something else. Once you have save it, you can exit Automator. Services are deposited in yourlogin directory/Library/Services.
If you have a Pages document open with text, either select it, or command+a to select the entire document. Now, you select your Service via Pages > Services > Frequency.

Jabber - Search for phone Numbers (extensions)

Hi there,
as on the old Cisco Personal Communicator there was a possibillity to search for extension numbers on the search field. If I enter an extension number on the Jabber Client on Windows, there is no Name and Picture shown from this employee. For example, if you type in 1234 in the field it just says "call 1234" but I want so find the employee which extension is 1234.
On the jabber-config.xml I already tryed the UDS and EDI method.
So I'm just asking if there is a general problem with this function or if this is just an configuration issue. If it would help, I'll post the jabber-config.xml.
Thanks for a reply.
regards
Marc

Hi Marc,
Currently this is not supported. It is tententively planned for 9.4 which has no current release date.
Thanks,
