Set up headaches: two AX, one for music one for wireless internet

I hope someone can please help, have gone round and round with this, although I assyne it's easy for those in the know.
So I have one AX connected via ethernet to a modem. This is set up as a wireless network on my macbook - all good... although the connection is pretty lame given that the AX is just down the hall.
I have another AX in the room with the macbook, sitting next to the stereo. This is just for music (not a wireless/internet connenction). How do I set this up? I try to go to AP Utility, but it always wants to switch the network, so I know this ain't the right way.
I guess it has to do with connecting the second AX up to the first, but it's all so bloody technical (to me - ugh).
Thanks for any help.
I guess it must be how to set up the first

I try to go to AP Utility, but it always wants to switch the network, so I know this ain't the right way.
Yes that is correct. You would temporarily switch networks to connect to the 2nd AirPort Express (AX). Then configure that AX to join the wireless network provided by the other AX. Then you will only have one wireless network.

  • Setting up a new imac g5 for wireless internet.

    I have recently brought a new imac g5 and want to set it up by wireless internet.
    My dad lives 2 doors down from me and has a pc with broadband and i was wondering if i could use his broadband by setting up my mac with wireless.
    What would i need to do this and would it matter that he has a pc.
    iMac 20" 2GHz intel core duo   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    I'm not too sure about the iMac but I know my laptops can pick up wifi signals that are a good 1/2 mile away, in the City of Baltimore for example, with my laptop, I can pickup 4 - 6 signals from my Studio, obviously most of them are protected (secured) signals, and I know for a fact there are not 6 people around me running independent wireless broad band within a few houses.
    It really all depends on how strong a signal the router can put out and how good the iMac can pick up. 2 houses is not very far away here in the US in regards to acquiring a signal... your dad is going to have to set up the router in a window facing your place and you will have to set up to a window nearest his place, if you can pick up a signal but is weak then try the 'signal booster'... Good luck, Rick

  • How do I set up my kids laptop to have to ask for wireless internet password everytime?

    I don't want my kids to be able to just click on a web browser and automatically connect to the internet. I want the wireless internet to require a password everytime in order to log on to the wirelss router.
    How do I do this?

    How do I do this?
    The AirPort Extreme (and other Apple routers) do not have this type of capability. Using the AirPort Extreme, it is possible to enable one or both of the following options:
    1) Require a password to to connect to the wireless network every time the network is accessed
    2) Set up daily time limits for each device that will be allowed to connect to the wireless network
    If you need an applicaton to control access to the Internet or specific sites on the Internet, you might take a look at OpenDNS as a potential solution.

  • Two Discs shown for wireless time machine backup., "Data" and "Extreme"

    I have a new 1TB iMAC 24" connected to Time Capsule via ethernet and wireless, one MacBook connected to Time Capsule via ethernet, and another MacBook that uses wireless. The iMAC and the ethernet-connected MacBook backup just fine using Time Machine. When I try a wireless Time Machine backup from the wireless MacBook, the backup fails and I get the "unable to ... image ..." message (don't remember the exact wording). When I try to "Change Disc" in Time Capsule preferences, I see two discs, one labeled "Data" and the other labeled "Extreme." Which one should I choose?

  • Powerbook G4 Laptop, wont use PC card for wireless internet.

    I have a G4 powerbook laptop and this model was actually put together prior to airport being installed. What I've been trying to do is insert a 802.11g card into the PC slot. I've tried both netgear and motorola and while it will detect both, it won't see it as a viable wireless internet option. I've been told that the Motorola card, wn825g, is one of the more successful options. Does anyone know a way to install the right drivers *or where to find* so that my network preferences look for aiport cards? I've been told that this card would be detected as airport but i've had no such luck.

    You should be able to find the right Netgear driver ...

  • Parental controls for wireless internet use?

    Hello,
    This is my first post here. I've had an iPod mini for a while, and I just bought my son an ipod touch for Christmas. We have wireless internet in our home, and now I am concerned that he can browse anything, anytime! Is there a way to set parental controls to restrict what he views on the internet via his itouch? Thank you!

    As a parent of 3 boys I can say that parental controls is no small issue.
    A relatively simple thing you can do is set up an account (free) with OpenDNS.
    See: http://opendns.com/ Once the account is set up you can specify what content should be block and what should not be blocked.
    Then set the DNS servers on your iPod Touch to the OpenDNS servers (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220). See: http://andrewescobar.com/archive/2007/07/06/change-iphones-wi-fi-dns-settings-to -connect-to-the-internet/
    Alternatively, you can set up your home router to use the OpenDNS servers and protect every computer in your home.
    Note: neither of this solutions protect your son when he uses an open network OUTSIDE of your home for internet access.
    Hope this helps,

  • Setting up HP LaserJet Pro P1102w for wireless but can not save wireless settings

    This printer worked fine on wireless with my last TWC modem/router, but I have tried for hours to set it up with a new one and it simply will not let me. USB works fine, but when I follow the instructions found here: OS X Yosemite Wireless. I choose Method three at this link: Method three: Wireless setup using a USB connection. Here is what happens after this:
    1. I downloaded the latest Apple HP drivers on my iMac (HPPrinterDrivers3.0.dmg). 
    2. Clicked Apple Software Updates to ensure I had the latest.
    3. Turned on the printer
    4. Has paper and is in ready mode with no flashing lights
    5. Plugged USB from printer into iMac
    6. Followed HP instructions: Systems Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Clicked on the P1102w printer which was already on the list > Open Print Queue > Open Printer Utility > HTML Config... > Network Tab > Wireless (confirmed it was enabled, I refreshed the network names and added my wireless network, added my wireless network password) > Apply.
    This is where everything crashes. After clicking Apply, the page will show up blank, the HTML will be messed up, or I will receive a message that says: 
    Safari can’t open the page “http://;ocalhost:5050/cgi-bin/ip_wireless_result.htm”. The error is: “cannot parse response” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1017)
    I have tried other Chrome and Firefox and got similar results. At this point, I am out of options based on the HP support sites that I have found. One HP site said to uninstall the HP software located in Libraries > Printers, so I did this. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi @txrun,
    I see that you are experiencing issues setting up the printer on the new router. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. Sometime the Embedded Web Server won't open or will error out, if it isn't. Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
    Restore printer defaults first and then run the HTML again. You may need to delete and add the printer again into the Printers and Scanners to be able to open the HTML again.
    Restore defaults: Turn the printer off, hold down the wireless button and cancel (x button) while turning the printer back on and don't release the two buttons until the printer stops making noise.
    Print a configuration page to make sure the old network settings are cleared. Printing a Configuration Page.
    If you are still having issues, please check these settings on the router.
    The printer is only capable of sending/receiving in the 2.4Ghz band.
    If it is set to 5 GHZ network you may need to change to 2.4 GHZ. (rename the 5ghz or shut it off)
    The WPA key setting needs to be on AES to work correctly not TKIP.
    Multi casting needs to be turned on.
    Firewall on router has to have open ports for printer.
    If you have Mac Filtering you need to give printer hardware address from configuration page.
    You might need to contact your router company for further assistance to check those settings.
    If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
    Have a nice weekend!
    Thank You.

  • Setting up a local ftp server for wireless photo transfers

    I am a semi-professional photographer who recently purchased a wireless unit that connects to my camera to transfer my images to my Mac. I have turned on the ftp services under Sharing on my Powermac G5 and set up a user account for the camera to log into. All of the transfers will be on the local side of my router, no outside (Internet) connections.
    I can get an IP address for the camera, so I know the connection to the router is ok, however I can not log into the user account on the G5 when ftp is initiated. I keep getting a 'Not Connected to Server' error message.
    The connection software on the camera is rather basic. It is ftp only. Do I need to do anything else on my G5 or router to help this along? In the camera, I can specify the IP address of the local ftp server, the account username, and password. Do I need to use passive mode?
    Should I use another ftp server program other than the one built into Tiger? The camera company recommends a product called Rumpus, but it is very expensive for my use. Any other suggestions for server software?
    Also, is there a way in Tiger to see who is currently logged into user accounts?
    Lots of questions, but I am determined to get this to work for me.
    Thanks.
    Jeff W.

    Also, is there a way in Tiger to see who is currently logged into user accounts?
    In Terminal just type 'last'. More ways to tell...
    http://www.osxfaq.com/tips/unix-tricks/week95/friday.ws
    I wonder if ftp might not mean some other file transer protocol like SMB... don't know for sure, but most use FAT16/32, which would need SMB I think.
    Try from the Finder... CMD+k, then type in smb://, then the IP of the Camera... or maybe ftp:// plus the IP.
    Most ftp programs are more funtional than the built in one... Cyberduck is popular, though I use TransmitX

  • New to Mac...how do I get set up for wireless internet?

    I've just been given a new Mac Book as a gift, and previously had a desktop windows computer that i used Comcast cable internet to connect to internet.
    Can someone give me some pointers as to how I need to set up my internet now so I can be wireless? Can i still go through my comcast provider?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Comcast typically does not provide a wireless solution in its own modem, but you can hook up a wireless router to their modem so your MacBook can be on wirelessly at your home. Comcast also usually gives you an ethernet modem, which most wireless routers support. If your Comcast modem is only ethernet and not WiFi, you'll need a WiFi router. Apple offers the Airport Express, Extreme, and Time Capsule wireless access points for easiest setup with the MacBook. The Express is the cheapest solution for someone with all WiFi capable machines in the house. If only the MacBook is present, you can also get a Time Capsule to be used with Mac OS X 10.5 if it is installed, to backup your Mac to a wireless hard drive, in addition to having wireless access. If you have a MacBook together with a machine with no WiFi card built-in, the Airport Extreme has LAN ports for any machine with a 10-base-T, 100-base-T, or Gigabit ethernet NIC card. Built-in to the MacBook is the ability to access the internet wirelessly at any WiFi hotspot on the road.
    I've got an Comcast/RCA branded modem with both ethernet and USB connections.
    Here's how to setup a wireless network at home with all of Apple's Airport base stations:
    http://www.apple.com/support/airport/
    Some third party 802.11n access points exist, but due to their being in draft specification, many won't give you full 802.11n access, and only give you 802.11g speeds unless their firmware is the same as Apple's.
    Most are apparently operating off of the same draft spec. I'll just note that my D-Link D-615 notes an 802.11n connection with my late 2007 MacBook.
    And "same firmware" seems to be a stretch in description. Firmware is specific to the hardware, so of course two different manufacturers are going to have different firmware - even if they are functionally compatible. Compatibility with various 802.11n draft or the eventual final standard should mean that the firmware is written to support the standard, with implied compatibility with other equipment designed to the same standard.

  • Two actiontec routers for WIRELESS use

    Hi-
    I have read the other threads that I could find re: two routers but they all seem to pertain to something other than what I am looking for.
    My problem: I have the FIOS big white box (is this the ONT?)  in my basement. I have the Actiontec router on the 1st floor in a room that is an extension (no basement access). I have an office in my basement and use the wireless from the 1st floor for interntet. The wireless signal from the actiontec used to be full blast in the basement but since I had the basement "redone" I now have literally no signal. My contractor thinks that maybe it is the double thickness drywall (soundproofing).
    I called VZ and they offered me a new router, so that is coming in the mail. However, I am pretty certain it is not the router as my signal in the rest of the house is excellent.
    Question 1) Can I hook ANYTHING to that big white box? Either my Mac that is down there via ethernet or a second Actiontec?
    Question 2) I would love to have wireless down there. Can I have a second Actiontec down there that has either the same or a different wireless network?
    Note: I do have a tv connection in my living room on the first floor. If it were possible to move my router to there and split the coax between the tv box and the router, I could possibly run a hardwire through the floor into the basement if that was the best way to get wireless down there again.

    I don't have much to add as far as solutions. (Looks like the others pretty much have that covered anyway.)
    I am curious though. Why did you put "redone" in quotes and why does it need to be soundproof? What exactly are you planning on dong in your, uh, office?

  • What to do with Time Capsule when not using for Wireless Internet

    I previously connected my Time Capsule to my fiber optic router but in my no home this is no longer needed as the cable TV company now provides 160 MPS Internet in a router that contains a wireless router built in. It works fine.  My computer is now connected wirelessly to that router (too far to take advantage of the wired connection).
    Therefore I want my Time Capsule to just be connected to the computer for backups.  I gather I have to connect it via Lan and make sure it does not transmit r receuve wirelessly. In fact, other wireless computers in the huse occasionally try to log into the old Time Capsule PPoE settings, so I want to erase them and start fresh.
    This seems to be similar to what I want t do, but I want to make sure and ask:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/8256674#8256674
    If this is not correct, can someone advise.
    By the way, I have a first generation Aiport Express that I hope to use with my new cable router (modem?).  I assume it will work as it did with the Time Capsule. Purpose is for Airplay with an audio system.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for your replies. I really appreciate it.
    To answer your questions in order, but first I should mention that due to work reasons, I will be away from my computer until Friday night Japan time, or Friday AM US time.
    Anyway, probably better I go slowly,as I tend to get overwhelmed by technical things.
    1) You said:  "The TC does NOT require an Internet connection for network connectivity. You DO have to connect the TC by Ethernet to the Fiber Optic router in order for it to gain network connectivity AND to allow network clients to access it."
    -->Ok, this is in reference to my Time Capsule and the previous network n myold apartment.  But your next question makes me wonder:
    2) "Is this Motorola device the one that replaced the Fiber Optic router that you mentioned in your original post? What is its model number? Do you have the TC connected directly to it by Ethernet?"
    Ok, this is what I have:
    Wall--> Cable modem with wireless (Motorola SURFboard SBG6580J Wireless Cable Modem Gateway.)
    Other Room  IMAC connected wirelessly to Cable Modem (no Ethenet connection to it since there is no jack and too far to run a cable (permanently--I can do for setup if needed)---> connected to TC and Time Capsule is backing up ok. Time Capsule is also not connected to the Modem
    3) "Since you will only want to use the Time Capsule for Time Machine backups, I understood that you wanted to disable its wireless network. If this is still the case, the Express would need to be configured to join the wireless network provided by the Motorola wireless router."
    Yes, This is what I am wondering. Do I have to connect it by LAN to the Motorola?  A few times, when it was just plugged into the Wall, my Mac airport utility found but them could not connect to my Express. maybe because I did not configure it to work with the Motorola as you say.
    4)
    "By default the Express will broadcast its own wireless network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. You would need to connect to this network with your computer prior to attempting to access it with the AirPort Utility. Another option would be to temporarily connect it, by Ethernet, to the Motorola router during its setup phase. Once completed you can move it to the desired location."
    Ok, this confirms what I guessed.  Connecting the computer to the Expressby Lan?  Is that what you mean?
    I do understand the second option---connecting the Express to the Motorola. 
    If that is right, I can try that.  Do I need to do anything other than connect it?
    I will be able to try this Friday or Saturday I hope.
    Once again. thanks for all your help. Really appreciate your taking the time to explain it.

  • No range for wireless internet

    About two weeks ago, Airport just stopped working for me unless I am right beside my wireless router (LinkSys WRT54G). I have a MacBook. Today I upgraded to Leopard and am still experiencing problems. I can't even access the internet from 15 feet away!
    My buddy's MacBook is working fine, and the same goes for all of the PC's in the house. I have tried changing routers, but it does not work.
    Sometimes I will get good reception from my network (and even my neighbors' networks) but this usually goes away in about 5 seconds.
    Can anyone help me? Thanks

    Since the problem occurred across OS revisions, it could be a hardware issue - either your card or antenna connection.
    You may want to try taking your MacBook to a local Apple Store and see if you experience the same inability to connect there.
    It could also be another device - a cordless phone, a neighbor's router, etc. - interfering with your signal.
    Once again a trip to an Apple Store or other location with a WiFi hotspot would help you determine if that were the issue.
