Using(configure) a wireless dongle on osLion

I just bought a Asus WL-167 V3 Wireless Adaptor because my iMac is having some issues.
I installed the software but stil can understand how to configure and use it.
Anyone knows standard procedures to make it work?
Thanks a lot

Having never heard of what you bought before, I can only HOPE it came with an installation cd that instructs you, or gives the software to run it from within your computer...
I am not sure set-up assistant will be of aid with a foreign device....
TRy system preferences>network...
OR when you turn on computer, and open aiport (turn on wi-fi) then it will search for network ~ the new device should be on already~ and...oh will it demand a password? HOW to put in a password...
OK try this then: google the name and model of the device and search their site for drivers...

HT3887 how can i configure my wireless keyword so i can use the Function F keys to control volume etc...? I am using 10.5.8 OS

little wireless cameras would not have the ability to send back to the base, even thought the base can reach it.
Now if you take regular cameras and wire them into a Cisco switch that was attached to a wireless bridge that could shine back to the base...now you might have something, but your still going to have to do a survey/path analysis to determine if it is feasible.
Coverage isnt throughput. I see one base station with 3 or 4 sectoral antennas depending on direction, pointing two several distribution bridges to bridge the gaps that go out again to the cameras...something like that. And all of it should be higher in the air than your construction.

Recently, i bought an aztech WL568usb wireless dongle, they provided me with an ralink driver. after installing it, i do not know how to operate it. can anyone give me step by step instruction on how to use ralink wireless utility?

Using Configurator to share two iPads with multiple users

I work in an office where several people want to share two iPads. We require individuals to connect to our secure wireless network with their own username and password. Each user also wants to set up the iPad to connect to their own Exchange account. Each person will also use their own Apple iTunes store ID and download their own apps.
If I understand the differences between the two applications, Apple Configurator would be the appropriate tool to manage this and not the iPhone Configuration Utility. If I understand how Configurator works, I set up the iPad to connect to Jane's email and to connect to the Apple Store and our wireless using Jane's credentials. Then I back up that profile using Configurator. Next I configure the same device to connect to Jim's email and to connect to the Apple Store and our wireless using Jim's credentials. Then Jim backs up the device to his profile using Configurator.
Now whenever Jane uses the iPad, she brings it back and plugs it into our Mac to backup her profile changes (her apps, her home wireless network settings, etc.). Jim sits down and "Checks out" the iPad to himself which loads his previously backed up profile. If Jane still has the laptop checked out, Jim can plug in the second iPad and load his profile.
Is this how it works? It seems like Configurator can do this, but not the Configuration Utility (which means you need a Mac running Lion to use Configurator).
Thank you,
Sean

Thanks gyrhead. Those are some of the better articles I've seen on using Configurator. One of our computer lab managers has been playing with it (I work in the IT department for a university). Basically I can see us using it to manage iOS devices we provide for use in the labs or on a short-term checkout basis, but I don't see Configurator as being a solution for the departments we support who want to share iPads between users. Even if a department has a Mac that can run configurator (many do not), I think it will lead to some bigger support and training issues that we do not have the resources to manage.
For now we are going to tell our faculty and staff departments that iPads and other iOS devices are meant to be personal devices and are not meant to be easily shared. Until Apple comes up with an easy way to login to different profiles on the device (I have also seen some third party products in development... like this one: http://nowsci.com/userprofiles/) we are going to recommend that departments purchase an iPad for any staff who needs it. If they really want to share one iPad among multiple users, they can set up a single Apple/iTunes account for the device tied to a purchasing card, and then just use Safari for checking email (instead of configuring everything for individuals). Of course if they really want to it is not a big deal to delete your email/calendar settings and then add them each time you use the device, but if it wasn't my own device I would just use Safari to check my email and calendar over the Web.

How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

The Guest Network function of the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme cannot be enabled when the device is in Bridge Mode. Unfortunately, with another router...the Telus...upstream on your network, Bridge Mode is indicated as the correct setting for all other routers on the network.
If you can replace the Telus gateway with a simple modem (that performs no routing functions), you should be able to configure either the Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme....whichever is connected to the modem....to provide a Guest Network.

Using AX as wireless router, how to set up w/ security and airtunes on XP

I previously had a Linksys wireless router. I just purchased an Airport express to use as the wireless router (and remove the Linksys router) as well as use the Airtunes functionality.
After some trial and error, I have been able to wireless connect my computer to the AX on it's own (the linksys router is now unplugged and out of the equation). I can connect to the internet fine on my PC (XP Pro SP2).
Trouble is, when I use the Network Setup Assistant, it shows the apple network listed, but it can't connect to it, no matter how many times I try, reboot my machine or reboot the AX. I've tried both the "setting up a new network" and "editing an existing network" option, and in each selection, after a few minutes of trying to connect to the network, I just get a failure message.
If I try and use the Admin utility, nothing shows up in the left-hand list window, and when I Press re-scan, still nothing shows (it doesn't even appear to scan).
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I can't find simple instructions on how to set up the AX as the only wireless router for a PC and set up security and Airtunes (I'm assuming enabling airtunes is done in these applications, as I haven't seen anything about that yet either).
Any ideas on how this is done with a PC? Much thanks!

I have found the 'DHCP Reservations' option on the AirPort Extreme to be buggy. I seem to remember it causing IP conflicts for some reason. I think what I remember is that if the computer with the reservation was off, and the DHCP server then handed out that IP to another DHCP client, then there would be a conflict when the reserved IP computer was turned back on. Maybe it was an issue in ealier versions of the AE or OS X as the case may be, and maybe it's been corrected, but I've never bothered using it agian since the method I describe below has always worked without fail. Also, I'm guessing DHCP Reservations would work fine if one manually enters IPs outside of the DHCP range but in the AE 'DHCP Reservation Setup Assistant' the IP options provided are within the DHCP range which to me makes no sense and increases the potential for IP conflicts.
Here's what I do to setup a mixed environment of static and dynamic IPs on my network. It works like a charm and does not require the DHCP server (beyond the distribution of dynamic IPs to hosts using DHCP).
For machines on my network that are accepting services from the public network, I set them up with static IPs using the 'Manually' option (System Preferences/Network/Ethernet/Configure IPv4). The settings for 'Router' IP address and 'DNS Server' IP address should both be set with your gateway/router LAN IP). Use an IP address below or above the DHCP range of adresses (in AE/Internet/DHCP/DHCP Beginning & Ending Address).
i.e. if my subnet is 10.0.1.1 and my DHCP range is 10.0.1.100 to 10.0.1.150, you could set the static IPs on your local hosts as 10.0.1.x where x = any number from 2 - 99 or from 151 - 200 as an example.
All other machines and devices that do not require static routing are setup as DHCP clients and get a dynamic IP from the AE. To me it's a simpler setup though it might take a little extra time to setup initially.

Using AnyConnect as wireless supplicant

Hello All,
I used to utilize CSSC as a wireless supplicant on my machine when I had windows XP.
I tried yesterday to install it on windows 7 (I tried vista version) but it does not seem to work with windows 7.
I was searching and I found somewherein this forum that CSSC is being deprecated and the anyConnect is bieng used to connect to the wireless networks as supplicants.
I was able to install the NAM (Network Access Manager) from which I can configure the wireless network profiel and generate a xml file.
The question is: where should I use this xml file? what is the exact program that should I use to import this file?
When I try to install AnyConnect Secure Mobility client to my machine it jus tappears on the taskbar saying that web-security service is not running (I tried to install web-security but it asks for a license by then).
can anyone tell me how can I use the anyConnect as a supplicant for the wireless?
I tried to search for some docs but none helped.
Many thanks.
Amjad

Hussam,
Why would you not suggest the benefits of Anyconnect NAM, it is CSSC's successor.
Back to the original thread, here are the install directions when installing NAM, you can just install the msi you have to install the secure mobility client package first.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/vpn_client/anyconnect/anyconnect31/administration/guide/ac02asaconfig.html#wp1601325
So basically you have to install the core module which is the vpn client, then you can install the optional modules, whicn for you will be the NAM.
Thanks,
Tarik Admani

Can I use my non-wireless hp 8500 Officejet Pro to work wirelessly?

I already have a wireless internet setup and am using a motorola 3347 modem/router. I am using a Mac with 10.5 and a PC with windows 7, mostly interested in printing wirelessly from the PC (in my son's room). Can I just get a usb wireless dongle and attach it to printer. Or better yet, can I attach my modem to printer by ethernet cable? I'm thinking its probabl;y not that simple, but wondering if there is an option that is cheaper than buying a new wireless all-in one. Thanks

Actually the best way to connect it is by Ethernet to your router! Just plug it in with Ethernet (and unplug the USB).
Get the latest software for your printer (for both your Mac and your PC) from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page. Choose "Network" as the installation type when it asks.

Can I use my WRT54G wireless router as a signal range extender?

Hello, I have a couple wireless routers in my home, and basically I guess I can only use one as the main wireless router.
I'd really like to know if I can use one, specifically my linksys WRT54G wireless G router as just a range extender for the wireless signal from the main wireless router. It would save me a bunch so that I wouldn't need to go buy an entirely new device for this. If there is ANY way.
please help
thank you

You can connect as many WRTs as you like to your network if you wire them together. They create a big roaming network then (or several different networks if you want that). You have to set up the "internal" WRTs as access points, though, i.e. you don't connect them through the Internet port to your network but through a numbered LAN port. Also make sure to turn off the DHCP server on the internal WRTs and to assign them a free LAN IP address in your LAN (usually 192.168.1.2,3,4 will work).
In a roaming network there is no main router. All wireless routers are the same in this respect. Your "main" router is only defined by the fact, that it hosts the internet connection. But from the side of the wireless is does not matter. For a roaming network, make sure to assign all access points the identical SSID and wireless security settings. The only difference in the wireless settings should be the channels, where you should use different ones if possible. 1,6, and 11 are non-overlapping and thus are best to be used.
O.K. This was with a wired connection. If you actually need a wireless bridge, i.e., connect to access points through a wireless connection without any wired connection between them, then you have two options:
1. Buy access points like the WAP54G or wireless bridges like the WET54G. They have can be configured for wireless bridging. A WRT54G with standard Linksys firmware does not have this capability.
2. Get a 3rd party firmware for your WRT54G if there is one available for your hardware version. I think not all hardware versions support 3rd party firmware. Check on the label underneath the router to see what hardware version you have. Search for "WRT54G" on wikipedia. You'll find an article about the different hardware versions, which 3rd party firmware projects exist and where to download it. 3rd party firmware usually adds functions like wireless bridging to a WRT. I know HyperWRT+Thibor works well on my WRT54Gv2. Remember, however, that uploading a 3rd party firmware will void your warrenty...

I'm having the same issue. Different programs though, it's mostly browsers and adobe products. I thought maybe it was heat related but it's not. It seems that as soon as Lion was about to be released, the updates were updating in preparation for Lion. I delayed updating the software updates because Adobe (my career) isn't totally compatible with Lion yet. Before I even started getting update notifications, though, within the recent week, it's freezing up constantly. I don't know what to do. It seems to be happening with my brower choice, I'm using Firefox and Chrome as my main browsers. I keep alot of sessions open but that shouldn't cause (and has never caused) this constant freezing issue. I did install some extensions in Chrome and Firefox, maybe that's the problem... The issues began after those were installed though, 3 weeks to a month later... Maybe the software updates (that I installed thinking it would correct the freezing issue), maybe they are preventing other browsers ? Maybe Apple is getting rid of Chrome and Firefox ? I'm not having issues with Safari (yet) though I just opened it for the first time in 2 months... only because the macbook is freezing (and it's also rebooting while asleep, closing all of my projects and not saving them)...
My Macbook Pro is the same year and the HDD is a year new. The manufacture recall had the video whatever replaced a few months ago.
I've never had these kinds of problems with an Apple computer. I'm using Snow Leopard and I'm very attached to this laptop ! It's configured perfectly.
Why oh why does it freeze constantly within the recent 1-2 weeks ?
Someone please help us !

USB Wireless Dongle Issues

I have a TP-Link TL-WN727N wireless dongle, which uses the rt2800usb driver. Unfortunately, I am having issues with it and it basically doesn't work at all. It will work for a minute before failing and after that, it won't connect at all.

Wi Fi/Wireless dongle confusion

I am on option 2 which gives a number of minutes a month free via wi fi as we all know.
I have now purchased a wireless dongle which I can pay for a certain amount of usage per pound.
If I use the dongle, does the free minutes given per month when using wi fi count
ie using the wireless dongle uses up the free minutes as well as costing for the dongle use. Or is the dongle use a separate entity altogether &doesn't touch the free wi fi minutes ?
Any advice will be grtefully received
