Trying to get DHCP and NAT to work on Time Capsule

I have a 2TB Time Capsule, combined with a speedtouch 780 wireless router. I have tried to set up the router in bridge mode but don't see the setting for it. Is it allocating the IP of the router to the Time Capsule? If I do that the internet connection is gone.
ISP have shown no support as to how to set this up.
I want to enable this option, so that I can access Time Capsule remotely from the www (when travelling).
Thanks for the help!

One device or the other has to be bridged. The obvious one is the 780 speedtouch. And use PPPoE client on the TC.. the only question is if your ISP supports PPPoE authentication.. not all do. If you only have PPPoA available then you have to bridge the Time Capsule. Remote access via the speedtouch in router and the TC is no problem btw. I have done that myself.
I have tried to set up the router in bridge mode but don't see the setting for it. Is it allocating the IP of the router to the Time Capsule? If I do that the internet connection is gone.
To bridge the Speedtouch go to the main setup page in your browser.. by default 192.168.1.254 but some are still at 10.0.0.138.
Save the current configuration just so you can easily get back.
Then select the configuration under Gateway or Thomson Gateway. On the centre of the page at the bottom is pick a task.. one of which is setup. You can choose bridge as a service or what we used to call template. It should list routed ppp, bridge and perhaps a couple of others. Just pick bridge.. and finish the setup wizard. Then you are done.. the 780 will be in bridge and use pppoe client on the TC.. this is the best setup btw for remote access.
Although it looks slightly different.. here are the pics from my TG782.. which is the next model from 780. The layout is the same even if the colors and graphics are slightly different.
After you pick setup my Thomson gateway you get the wizard.
Remote access setup then depends on which of the above you bridge and how you are trying to access them.. are you trying direct using AFP to the TC.. or using BTMM and iCloud?

Can't get Back to My Mac working in Time Capsule

I just bought a brand new Airport Time Capsule. The internet works. It's the sole router in the network. I wanted to set up Back to My Mac. When I try to enter my apple id and credentials, I get a cryptic error: "An error occurred signing in."
And that's it. No other hints on what's wrong or how to fix it.
Anyone have any ideas?

I linked up my Time Capsule yesterday and my initial backup failed twice. I then hooked up the Time Capsule to my iMac with an ethernet cable and now it won't work at all....can anyone help us out? Getting frustrated with this "easy" stuff!!
Thanks.

Let me guess.. you are using Lion.
Redo the setup but download and install 5.6 utility if indeed Lion is involved.

Use SMB names for wireless and TC.. this helps..

Set and lock the wireless channels.

Trying to get Oblivion and Morrowind to work with Commercial Wine

I hope this message is helpful and I hope to get some feedback about what could be improved about my approach. I researched some stuff I desided to do a free trial of Crossover "The commercial Wine" Which is more GUI and easier to configure. I've got Oblivion to install Sound works, graphics are supurb but it is VERRRY SLOW I've heard of Open GL but couldn't find it in the local community repo. Oblivion needs from what I understand is direct3d or the ActiveX that installs with the game disk. If there are any solutions. I'd be glad to hear them. Does Windows directX hinder the running of PC Games on a Linux system or would it be better to get the latest optimized Linux i686 DirectX?

Does Windows directX hinder the running of PC Games on a Linux system
Yes
would it be better to get the latest optimized Linux i686 DirectX?
There is none. directx is strictly microsoft stuff.
Wine translates directx calls to opengl calls on the fly.
The easiest way if wine doesn't work is to buy cedega, which would have pretty up to date directx "support".

Apple Airport Extreme Base Station for PPPoE, DHCP and NAT with ActionTec DSL modem

I just spent several hours trying to track down proper instructions for setting up my Apple AEBS to do the PPPoE, DHCP and NAT while connected to an ActionTec M1000 (no wireless module). It turns out my initial set ups on both devices were correct, but that the order for rebooting and reconnecting the two devices is critical. All of the threads I found on this forum and on many others suggested this was not possible, but it is. What I don't yet know is whether it is the best method for running my home network DSL connection to my ISP (CenturyLink).
The instructions I found that worked come courtesy of Brandon Konkle's blog and are both simple and clear: http://brandon.konkle.us/post/19637529637/centurylink-actiontec-q1000-airport-ex treme-bridge
The proper settings for the ActionTec DSL Modem can be found under Advanced Setup/IP Adressing/WAN IP Address
Click RFC 1483 Transparent Bridging then click on Apply.
(see also http://qwest.centurylink.com/internethelp/modems/m1000/pdf/M1000_BRIDGE.pdf )
To reduce time, do this BEFORE you reset your AEBS then set the AEBS so that you don't have to wait for the AEBS to reboot.
In contrast to what Brandon described for the Q1000 modem, my AEBS never reconnected to the modem (he describes his as getting an IP from his ISP, then dropping it then getting another over and over - mine never got an IP). Once you have reset both devices as described, the critical steps I have not found described elsewhere were:
1. Disconnect the power from both the modem and the Airport Extreme.
2. Disconnect the Ethernet cable between the two devices
3. Restore power to the 2 devices and allow them to fully reboot. For the ActionTec M1000, this is indicated when the lights stop blinking. (Note that the Internet light will NOT be lit in this instance since the modem is acting only as a bridge. You will NOT have an Internet connection until the AEBS is reconnected.) The AEBS will be blinking yellow.
4. Reconnect the Ethernet cable between the devices (make sure on the M1000 that you are using the connector with the circle icon over it, not the arrow icon).
Within about 60 seconds, the AEBS light went to steady green and the connection to the Internet was restored.
Now I have to see if this is a more stable configuration than the flaky one I had before while using the AEBS as a bridge and the M1000 to do everything.
Does anyone think or know if it will make a difference?

No one can accurately predict in advance what the actual results might be. I've tried both ways with different products and cannot say that one method is better than the other. What works is best.
In theory, it is preferable to have the modem provide the PPPoE connection service since it is the device connected directly to the Internet.
In practice, results vary depending on the service provider, products used, phase of the moon, alignment of the planets, etc.

How to set up DHCP and NAT for QNAP NAS MyCloud service?

I have an Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) attached to my DSL model (no router in the modem). My QNAP NAS is attached via ethernet to the QNAP NAS. My iMac (running AirPort Utility 6.x) is connected to the AEBS via wifi.
I've found several folks who've tried this (and apparently succeeded) but I'm a networking novice and am having trouble making this work. What I did was to go into the AirPort utility and in the networking section configure "DHCP and NAT" and then called out the static IP and MAC address of the QNAP NAS (as well as the ports I'd like to remain open). However, when I did this and applied the changes, my iMac (connected to the AEBS via wifi) could no longer see the AEBS, which then required me to reset the AEBS, re-configure it back to the previous known good conifiguration and start over. After about 5 cycles of this I gave up.
So, what am I doing wrong here? Do I need to go in and configure every device that is going to access the AEBS as static and call out each device's IP and MAC address? (hopefully not, that'd be a major PITA).
Help. Anyone?

Setting up DNS on Xserve when DHCP and Nat ae controlled by windows machine

Trying to set up an Intel based Xserve on an internal network to have 6 other G5's authenticate to. But I am having problems setting up DNS.
This server is being added to a windows network that has DHCP and NAT handled by a different windows machine. I have also assigned the xserve with a static IP address of 192.168.1.XXX Now this server is just going to run a few programs for the 6 macs in the art department. Software Update, Version Cue, Suitcase Server. I have version cue and suitcase server up and running. But I would also like to have the macs authenticate to the server for the updates.
If I type in hostname at terminal I get:
localhost.xserve
and when I type in host 192.168.1.XXX
I get some error about no name aviable or something...
How can I setup simple dns just for the server? Would there be any down falls for having DNS setup on this machine when it is conected to a windowws network?
Please help. Sorry for the long winded explination.

Yes, it's possible. Although I'm no longer favorable towards fake "domains" like .lan or the like.
Besides which (and most people don't know) ".lan" is actually an existant TLD. So it's not so great either.
Set the server to what it's FQDN should be, and set it to answer to & for itself only.
Is everything else internally using ".lan" ? If not you're going to have to point clients to your server strictly by IP alone and while that's fine, this setup is starting to sound just ugly, if not somewhat Frankenstein-ian
But to limit requests you'll have to edit /etc/named.conf by hand.
Google can lead you to the information, there's plenty out there - here's one for example:

I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though, itunes automatically putting books on my idevices

I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though I did not want this. I added them to itunes using add to library and I have both devices set to sync only selected books.
How do I do this in the future so this doesnt happen? Its a lot of work to now manually erase them from each device and it sent my phone over capacity.
thanks

I dont see the difference in the posts. I dont think theres anything inaccurate or misleading about what I wrote. The items were immediately added to my ipad and my iphone, even though I have them both set to sync only select items. As soon as I added new titles to my itunes library, they were immediately added to the devices. Not on the next sync. Immediately. Both devices were plugged into the computer at the time. Sorry if I failed to mention they were plugged in but I dont see the signifigance youre making out of it. The problem persists anyway.
Now that I did a test without the devices plugged in, the new items were still added as soon as I plugged my devices into the computer ( I do not have them set to sync over wifi).
Since I have both devices set to manually select items to sync, of course I want to manually select new items to sync. For instance, I am not going to read any of these magazines or books on my phone, ever, and I dont want to waste valuable space with them.
So I'm trying your advice:
I just tried deselecting sync books. It erased all content from ibooks on my device. I then dragged
one title onto the device, and it just goes back to syncing select books, with the one title selected.
It appears that wont work to solve my issue. The next time I add something to itunes it will be put on my phone. Is this really something most people want? To select to manualy control what content is synced, but then have things automatically added. It seems inconsistent to me.

When trying to access wireless, the Laptop shows to be connected to the router and also to Internet, but Internet Explorer can not access any websites. Suggestions? Thanks.

So sick of trying to get iTunes 8.2 to work on Vista - 7 days of ****

After downloading £50+ worth of new music/audiobooks and tv shows last week, innocently clicked on 'upgrade to 8.2'; (yes I backed up my Library and hard disk first); result, the last 7 days of **** trying to get iTunes and my iPhone to sync. I'm so sick of this bloody iPhone, iTunes and Vista, if I could go out and purchase a replacement to iPhone and iTunes I would without a second thought.
I have tried absolutely everything posted on apple.com/itunes/support in the last 7 days - must have spent a good 4-5 hours a day over the last 7 days trying to fix this sodding fault.
At this point, I'm considering going back to CDs, and the simplicity of just putting a CD on and playing it. It seems but a far away, simple approach to listening to music, compared to the sodding **** of trying to get iTunes to work on my Vista Laptop.
So ****** off I'm thinking of getting rid of my iPhone (and yes I'm at the end of my contract) and going for anything that is Non-Apple.
Anyone else had this delightful experience with iTunes 8.1 and 8.2?

Read the iTouch forums and other iPhone forums... this is a big issue and a known bug. Apple contacted me right after I posted my issue. I downloaded it when it was released. My fix tonight was to downgrade to iTunes 8.1. This works for sure, so this is the only fix that I know truly works.

Loosing internet when in DHCP and NAT mode

Hello and thank you for your help. I am a novice.
I am using a 2009 macbook pro 10.7.5 with Mountain Lion
Originally my airport extreme setup was for " DHCP and NAT ".
Since yesterday, I am only able to get internet via Bridge mode, but I have to sign in to my server network first, like a hotspot
This means that my internet timing is limited and the finder shows other personal computers that does not belong to my personal network. My iphone cannot connect to my personal network without signing in the internet service provider website first as well
What happens when I try to update and restart AE to DHCP and NAT, is that I loose internet and get the following message in the airport extreme icon :
"DOUBLE NAT:
This airport base station has a private IP address on its Ethernet WAN port.
It is connected to a device or network that is using NAT to provide IP addresses.
Change your Airport base station from using DHCO and NAT to bridge mode."
Now, I do not want bridge mode
My attempt to solve the problem was resetting AE to factory. This created a new network. The new network appears in the network icon and it is WPA2 personal protected, like the previous one.
I appreciate your time and look foreward to solve my problem with some help in here - thank you again

Originally my airport extreme setup was for " DHCP and NAT ".
If it was, and you had a modem/router or gateway type of device "upstream" on the network, then you created a Double NAT error on the network.
Sometimes, you can get away with this on a simple network, and AirPort Utility does provide the option to "ignore" the error on the network, so the AirPort Extreme will display a green status light.....instead of blinking amber, which signals that something is amiss.
"DOUBLE NAT:
This airport base station has a private IP address on its Ethernet WAN port.
It is connected to a device or network that is using NAT to provide IP addresses.
Change your Airport base station from using DHCO and NAT to bridge mode."
If you want to run in DHCP and NAT mode, you will have a Double NAT error on the network. Click the option to "ignore" the error.
Then, power cycle the entire network. That means powering everything off, waiting a minute, then starting the modem first and let it run a minute or two, then start the next device the same way. Keep starting devices one at a time about a minute apart until the entire network is back up.

Trying to get a code walkthrough to work - Bing Ads Api C# Desktop App

Hi,
I'm trying to get the Bing Ads API Desktop App Walkthrough working. When I run it where it says to run, I get an error saying "Uri passed doesn't contain code param..."
All I've done to the copied and pasted code was input ClientId and DeveloperToken in the first part of the MainWindow class.
Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/bing-ads-net-walkthrough-desktop-application.aspx
Thanks,
Mike

I am able to repro the issue by using the ClientId of a web application.
The proposed solution is to register an application as a desktop or mobile application, in order to use that example. Running Fiddler you can capture the traffic e.g. as follows:
https://login.live.com/oauth20_desktop.srf?error=invalid_request&error_description=The%20provided%20value%20for%20the%20input%20parameter%20'redirect_uri'%20is%20not%20valid.%20The%20client%20application%20must%20be%20marked%20as%20'mobile'%2c%20or%20the%20value%20must%20be%20an%20absolute%20URL%20which%20matches%20the%20registered%20redirect%20URI.&lc=1033
It seems the 'Uri' error message is thrown by the SDK because it tries to get access and refresh tokens with the URL above instead of the expected on with 'code'. We will take a look at the SDK and make sure the right error message is being relayed.
By the way if you want to use a web application (as it sounds like you may have already registered one), try Walkthrough: Bing Ads Web Application in C#.
Please let me know if I can help with any other questions.
I hope this helps!

I am trying to get this java program to work

I need your help, I am trying to get this java program to work. The program is long and massive, but I got stuck in the last point where the program checks if there are a double quotes or a comma in a string.
The string is an URL retrieved from XML files (this is already done).
There are 4 conditions:
Case 1
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains no commas (,) and no double quotes (").
Make no changes to the URL string.
Case 2
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains 1 or more double quotes (") but no commas.
Make no changes to the URL string.
Case 3
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains 1 or more commas (,) but no double quotes.
Modify the URL string so that it starts and ends with a double quote (").
Case 4
=====
The URL string is of invalid format and contains 1 or more double quotes (") and one or more commas (,).
Modify the URL string so that every double quote (") becomes a double double quote (""), and so that it starts and ends with a double quote (").
======
then write the modified URL string to the CSV file.
======
Examples:
1. hello ---> hello
2. hello "big" world ---> hello "big" world
3. hello, world ---> "hello, world"
4. hello "big,big" world ---> "hello ""big,big"" world"

You can do the searching with String.indexOf() and then you can make replacements (like " with "") with String.replaceAll().
As for adding leading and trailing ", that could be done with simple concatenation.

TS1440 A flashing question mark appeared when I started my MacBook Pro, I've tried all the suggestions and nothing has worked. How can I back up my current files so I can reinstall Mavericks?

I recently did a manual reboot after my MacBook Pro had frozen, and instead of the usual Apple and loading icon, it gave me the flashing question mark on a folder, which I've never encountered before. I looked up some possible reasons on my PC, and after reading that there's a problem with my HD I tried looking up how to back up my files so that I can do a clean reinstall of Yosemite (latest ver.). However, I've never used anything like Time Machine or anything else that could back up all my files, so it didn't sound like I could do anything about that at this point. I've also tried going into Disk Utility and attempting to repair the disk image. There was only 2 available, disk0 and the base system. I verified the base system, and told me there was nothing wrong (it didn't give me the option to repair anything either, on both available options). I don't think this is the right thing though, since my drive was called MacBook Pro HD. So basically this is the point I'm at now. Is there anything I can do that will repair my HD without erasing all my files?

I've tried all the suggestions and nothing has worked.
