Trouble with channels and clients using different 802.11 g/n adapters

Hi,
I have moved to a new home and I have a lot of problems with the wireless network
I have configured the airport extreme to use the "802.11n draft" with backward compatibility to b ang g at 2,4 GHz.
I had to manually select channel because the "Auto" option will probably use channel 6 and in this way all my clients are unable to connect.
After many tests I have found that I cannot use channels from 4 to 9 because my macbook airport card will not detect the wireless network. Channel 1 seems to be the best choice but it is used by other people in the near homes also.
With channel 1 my macbook is able to connect and mantain a stable connection, the signal is about 35%, unfortunally other clients (using windows XP, broadcom wireless adapter or a d-link DWA-140 USB key) are unable to have a good and stable connection: it is always "low", "very low" or not available
Using the D-Link DWA-140 wireless config utility I have discovered today that channel 5 seems to be the better for such device: using channel 5 it is able to connect windows clients from everywhere with good or excellent signal BUT my macbook wireless results completely dead instead :-/, the same for broadcom client.
D-link is unable to connect if I set channel 6 to 9 also.
Macbook is unable to connect to 5GHz 802.11n pre-standard, D-Link is able instead.
I have no cordless phones or running microwaves in the kitchen, the only thing I have is an home alarm using infrared and microwave sensors in each room. But they told me that they are using a frequency range much different from 2.4 GHz. Unfortunally I am unable to completely power off them and test some more.
May be that near homes have cordless phones, wireless routers or video/audio repetitors, I don't know. I also have much iron in my walls. It is very strange that d-link can use very well channel 5 while other wireless cards/clients are unable to find any network there.
I am going to become creazy... if I was able to explain the situation, could anybody help to investigate some more or try to solve?
thanks a lot in advance!
Fabio

may be I have found the cause of all these troubles: the alarm motion sensors installed in each room.
I have made a search in the Internet and I have found the technical details of my sensors: microwave tecnology used by them is exactly using the frequency of 2.45 GHz :-/
So I have moved outsite of my hause the Airport Extreme and notebooks to confirm my suppose:
all channels were perfectly working, "auto channel" selection was ok, macbook was able to connect at 5GHz 802.11n mode. Windows client was ok too with all wireless cards or USB devices.
The alarm sensors seem to be always active and seems not possibile to have them completely off when the alarm is not activated.
I think I am going to switch them to a different version that does not use 2.45 GHz microwaves.
It seems the solution to my troubles.
Hopes this helps somebody else.

  • Trouble with opening and using Apps

    Apps such as Netflix and Words with Friends do not work correctly; when I tap on them, they flash for a second only and then disappear back as just icons.

    When an app misbehaves I try the following.
    1. Quit the app like I describe and try it again.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then start the app again and see if it functions correctly.
    2. If the first item did not work I will quit the app again then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. Then start the app again.
    3. Still not working? I will delete the app and download it again from the App Store.
    4. If non of these get the app running properly I will contact the developer of the app to see if they are aware of a problem.

  • TO ALL THOSE HAVING TROUBLE WITH ICHAT AND AIM ON MACBOOKS

    I've had a lot of trouble with AIM and iChat on my new Macbook, but I believe I've figured out the answers to all the problems I and others have encountered.
    Firstly, for those who's AIM continually crashes and displays the message "The application AIM unexpectedly shut down," my answer to your problem is too many sent messages. Watch the bar in the bottom left of your chat window, when it reaches red, your application will probably shut down.
    Secondly, for those experiencing difficulties with iChat, it's most likely a problem with communitcation between your wireless router and your computer. Try these steps:
    1. From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. From the View, choose Sharing.
    3. Click the Firewall tab.
    4. Click New.
    5. From the Port Name pop-up menu, choose Other.
    If you have a Macbook, you'll probably have a TCP Port Number Bar and a UDP Port Number Bar. Try these steps:
    1. In the TCP Port Number(s) Bar, type: 5190, 5298
    2. In the UDP Port Number(s) Bar, type: 1024-5219, 5221, 5223-65535
    3. In the Description Bar, type: iChat AV
    4. Click OK
    5. Click Start above the window with your firewall settings, and make sure the box next to iChat AV is checked
    6. Relaunch iChat
    Good Luck! I hope this solves some of the problems that people have been encountering.

    Rob
    My Linksys is the WAG54G, which might be different from your WRT54G. Currently, UPnP is disabled and the Router ports are a bit of a mystery, because they're forwarded to an IP address that's outside of the current DHCP Address Range! Once I got it working, I was reluctant to change it even though it looked anomalous.
    The Firewall is on, with the iChat ports open that I listed in the previous post.
    My two regular buddies are my sons, who both use Trillian Pro on a Windows machine. Works pretty well despite occasional freezes or garbled sound.
    Hope you get sorted soon.

  • Problem with storing and retriving a different langauge font in mysql

    hi,
    i have problem with storing and retriving a different character set in
    mysql database ( for example storing kannada font text in database)
    it simply store what ever typed in JTextField in database in the
    formate ??????????? and it showing ???????? .
    please what can i do this problem.
    thanks
    daya

    MySQL does not know about what type of Font you use or store. that is applicatioon specific. All it knows is the character set that you are storing and the data type and data. THere are something you should know when working with database and Java:
    1. make sure you know what character set is used for the database table.
    2. make sure you know what character set is used by Java (default to UTF-8 ..
    sort off - there are few character that it cannot save). You can enforce the
    character set being sent to the database by the String's getBytes(String charsetName) method.
    3. make sure the application you use to view the table use the correct character set
    if it use a different character set, then any character that it does not recogized
    will be replaced with a quetion mark '?'....eventhough the data is correct.

    Old EXP IMP doesnt have capability to append the row, since you're using 10g use datapump instead. use option TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=APPENDso my import should be like this
    imp "'/ as sysdba'" file=Table1_1006.dmp fromuser=user1 touser=user1 tables=Table1 log=imp_Table1_1006.log TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=APPEND
    Did you look up the command line syntax and control options for imp?
    You should make it a habit that whenever anyone - especially a stranger on the web - gives you a bit of code or references a command or init parm or any some such, the VERY FIRST thin you should ALWAYS do is look it up for yourself and see exactly where and how it is used and what it means. That is how you grow beyond having to be spoon fed every little thing and become more self-sufficient.
    If you had, you would have seen that there is no TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION option for imp and seen that it is an option for impdp. And realized that exp and imp are NOT the same thing as expdp and impdp.
    =================================================
    Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
    Go to tahiti.oracle.com.
    Drill down to your product and version.
    <b><i><u>BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION</u></i></b>
    Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
    Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
    Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> of information is available there.
    Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
    Do the same with the Utilities manual.
    You don't have to read the above in depth. They are <b><i><u>reference</b></i></u> manuals. Just get familiar with <b><i><u>what</b></i></u> is there to <b><i><u>be</b></i></u> referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
    Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
    - Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
    - Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
    - Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
    - When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
    Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

  • JDBC Thin Connections with SSL and client certificates

    Hi ,
    we are going have a look at JDBC Thin Connections with SSL and client certificates.
    I have two questions:
    1. Is it possible to use SSL connections from JDBC Thin Driver and which release of the driver introduced it
    2. Is it possible to use client certificates with JDBC Thin Driver and which release of the driver introduced it
    Thanks for your help
    regards
    Markus Reichert

    I could not reproduce the error after appending the SSL certificate to the certdb.txt file available under $Jinitiator_Home/lib/security folder.
    Steps to add the SSL Certificate:
    1. Run the form with the https mode in the IE Browser.
    2. Security Alert is raised.
    3. Click on the View Certificate button.
    4. In the Certificate Window, click on the Details tab.
    5. Click on the Copy to File button to copy the certificate.
    6. Copy the certificate and append to the certdb.txt file.

    Hi Fabian,
    Is there any error code when user access their mailbox on OWA. Please confirm if there is no results returned in EMS when you run Get-OWAVirtualDirectory cmdlet. Also check whether there is any Event Logs related to OWA in Exchange.
    In IIS manager, make sure the OWA virtual directory is listed in the Default Web Site. In EMC, we can navigate to Server Configuration > Client Access, select server and turn to Outlook Web App tab. Then we can click Reset Virtual Directory in the right
    Actions pane to reset OWA virtual directory.
    Additionally, please restart IIS service by running iisreset /noforce from a Command Prompt window.

    You first have to subscribe to iTunes Match through iTunes on your computer and have your music library in iTunes uploaded/matched before you can enable it on your iOS devices (see http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/).  Without a computer you won't be able to use iTunes Match.

  • I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all.

    I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. I went to the forums and tried all the suggested fixes but none worked. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all. I tried a system restore twice and it did not fix the problem.

    I would imagine it's the MyWay Searchbar which is classified by most anti-malware scanners as adware, or even worse as spyware. I say that because I see "SmileyCentral" in your list of plugins and that's an add-on for that particular toolbar. You can disable that via Tools | Add-ons | Plugins.
    There are a number of toolbars which won't work with Firefox 4 anymore due to the enhanced protection mechanisms in the browser.
    Mozilla recommends that you only install add-ons from its own security site @ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/?browse=featured Generally speaking, those have all been tested and approved. The exceptions are those currently under review which are marked with a yellow banner to warn users that they haven't passed Mozilla's labs yet.

    Do you think that apple has to   reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s?? 

    I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more.  I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
    Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......
