Using DMZ on bt hub 3.0 for ps3
Morning.
Having had a moderate nat type and needing to get it open to play mw3 with no connection problems.
I have placed the ps3 in Dmz as host but only when im gaming as i did see it say there is a risk.
now my firewall is at default and NOT disabled so there must be some protection, but i was concerned last night when i was gaming my missis started using facebook on the pc while the hub was set to Dmz. when i finish on the ps3 i switch it back to normal. anyone one got any other ideas?? as i know there is some risk at what im doing.
many Thanks
Dazza

This was the link i used it worked, but is not working now? I think I might have changed something. At the start do I select the yes or no box on copying an existing application?? It has it as yes?? I think I will use the pin reset and start again see what happens.

Using Satellite LP500-14L as a display for PS3
Hello, dear administration and all users ; )
I am really glad to join this forum and hoping to get some helpful experience with it : )
So.. the question is in subject.. I am just curious about it .. With eyes of average user it seems to be possible, PS3 and almost all modern laptops both
have HDMI output , to plug in PS3 to ordinary LCD is possible.. why shouldn't be same with Laptop one?
I red some post in different forums.. and unfortunately it does not seems to be as simple as looks like.
Some people are saying:
1 ) You can't do it because laptop HDMI does not support input of video
2 ) Some says, you can but only with TV tuner and only with usual connection with 2 wires, like DVD players, oldest consoles are connected
Both variants are unhappy : )) , even second one because probably quality of picture going to be bad and not enjoyable as when connection PS3 via HDMI.
Maybe some one can give a list what laptops are supporting VIDEO input for all the people to know it . Mine is SATELLITE P500-14L, it has 18 inch display and i think it would be nice to turn it on as a PS3 sometimes : ))>1 ) You can't do it because laptop HDMI does not support input of video
Right the notebook cannot receive video signals from PS3 and this is the reason why you cannot connect the PS3 to the notebook and use the internal display.
I remember that early Toshiba Qosmio G20 supported a video in port (but not HDMI)
Using this port you could connect an xbox and could use the internal screen. -
I want to use my Time Capsule as a central 'hub/hard-drive' in order to keep all my working files in one place. I then plan to use my laptops/desktops as peripheral devices for editing and creation of these files. Is it possible? To create a personal cloud?
Can someone advise as to whether i can do the following:
Future Internet connection -------------------TIME CAPSULE (containing all files) -------------- Backed up on the WD 2T Hard-drive I have
(not connected yet) I (*connected to timecapsule physically)
I
I I I I I
Macbook Pro iMac HP (PC) OLD Macbook Pro iPhone
(used for remote working) (Used for home working) (used for heavy CAD and rendering) (not being used for anything at the moment) (& iPods)
I am looking to have all my files in one place as i am hopelessly disorganised. I know the online clouds are a good solution (used Dropbox at work and uni for 3 years) however i am wanting to create my own 'dropbox/icloud' at home. So whenever i get back home with my laptop, any work i have been working on whilst out that day is updated to the timecapsule, and then ultimately as i turn on the other devices, they update to those newer versions of the files. Please tell me that the 3TB time capsule i have can do this, otherwise it feels rather overpriced as a wireless storage device?
Another note (to those in the know) If i am to be working on large files (REVIT/SOLIDWORKS/KEYSHOT/CREO/AUTOCAD) - is the timecapsule connection good enough to support editing and updating these files?
I know i may be asking a question that many have before, but as a bit of a technical novice I wanted a clear-cut answer to my specific circumstances. Your help is greatly appreciated.
(*can i use this WD hard-drive that is connected to the Time Capsule as a back up? so that the time machine back-ups/any back ups are also backed up onto this one? can the WD be a backup for the TC?)
Kind Regards
JoeThe diagram was supposed to look more like this......

Thanks for the help. Looked but not clear on what I am trying to do as being possible. Can I use an Airport Express to connect wireless to a Linksys Wireless Router, such that I can then use the Ethernet ports on the Airport to either connected to a PC wired, or even use a hub off the Airport Express to allow multiple wired connections to it?
I am not looking to have the Airport Express extend my wireless network, just connect to it and provide me wired connections in a different location from where my Linksys Route is located. Would prefer to replace Linksys with all Apple, but just not possible financially yet. Thanks for the help.If the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is an 802.11n model, then yes, you can reconfigure it as a wireless Ethernet bridge. In this configuration, the AX would join the wireless network provided by the Linksys router and its Ethernet port would be enabled for either a single wired device or for an Ethernet hub or switch for multiple devices.

But I'm Not using my BT home hub for wifi
I received an email after registering (and loging on to BTWIFI to test) which said...
"Please keep your BT Home Hub switched on for the next few days so we can add you to the network."
The thing is I do not use my BT Home Hub 3 for Wifi anymore. After a frustrating Saturday not being able to pick up a wifi signal in certain important spots in my house (kitchen table, bedroom etc.), I atempted to get the Home Hub 3 to recognise Apple's Airport Expresses to extend the wifi network. This does not work, so I switched off the HH3 Wifi and use it as a router only. I connected my own Wifi router with extenders and now I have a fast and near perfect signal in all corners of the house. No dropouts at all.
So, will this stop me benefiting from BT unlimited wifi hotspots?Devon_Dave wrote:
Correct, your non BT router will not radiate BT Wifi only your own SSID
@DD But the Hub3 will!
"so I switched off the HH3 Wifi and use it as a router only".
The hub, once the BTWifi update has been sent, will start to transmit the BTWifi SSID's.

I want to use an Apple AirPort Extreme as my home router but at present I have standard BT broadband using the BT Home hub 3. Can I connect them in some way so I don't need to buy a stand alone modem.
IS THIS POSSIBLE???
1. Would Apple AirPort Express be better and easier?
2. What modem would be suitable if I can't do it any other way?
I AM CURRENTLY USING MY INTERNET WITH PS3,WINDOWS 7 LAPTOP, IPAD AND IPHONE!!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
John smithYou said that you wanted the layout to look like this:
AT&T 2WIRE Router (wireless off) ---> AirPort Extreme ---> NetGear 16-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch ---> ethernet cabling to ports in most rooms --->
So, we took that at face value....,.but it could look like this if things are more convenient this way, if you prefer:
AT&T 2WIRE > Ethernet Switch > AirPort Extreme and other devices.
- If we include an AirPort Extreme in the overall network setup, are there any potential issues with the 2WIRE router and the AirPort Extreme router "competing" with one another?
No, if you leave the wireless function off on the 2WIRE. If you do want the utilize the wireless on the 2WIRE and the AirPort Extreme, then you want to keep them physically separated by 6-8 feet, or a few meters.
- Do I really need an AirPort Extreme in the final setup?
No, if the AirPort Express will provide enough range for the network.
Or if I just want an extra WAP, can I operate two AirPort Express units (with the same SSID) downstream of a 2WIRE router?
Yes, if both of them are configured to operate in Bridge Mode. If you are using the "wizard" setup utility in AirPort Utility 6.x, the wizard will do this for you automatically.
That is to say, could we have a setup that looks just like the image above, but with an extra AirPort Express tacked on to one of the unused ethernet ports?
You can have as many AirPort Express devices (or AirPort Extreme devices) as you want, as long as each has an Ethernet connection back to the switch. -
I spend quite a few months each year in Canada where I use a Telus Cellular Hub device which is also my WiFi Router. My iPhone 5 has Cellular Data set to "Off" which insures I won't be charged via my Verizon Wireless Service Provider for charges while in Canada. Trouble is Telus, Rogers and all the Canadian Internet Providers charge for all Data going through their Systems. Again, My Cellular Data on the iPhone 5 is turned off, but I use WiFi for such things as checking the Weather, or FaceBook, or searching the Web.
I believe that things may be happening in the background from various Apps that use quite a lot of Data. It could be that iCloud is part of the issue with things being backed up automatically. It also could be that Apps like AP or other News Apps are sending large amounts of Data in the photos associated with their New Stories, etc. I typically turn off the App Store "Updates" such that they don't automatically load. The FaceBook works now posted videos play when you are just scrolling through the News Feed.
I have been trying to fine an article somewhere which focuses on this specific problem but unfortunately many if not most articles are about folks worried about using Cellular Data while in a WiFi environment when their Cellular Data is turned on.
Does anyone know of a fairly comprehensive article about what settings on which Apps might reduce the Data Usage when Cellular Data is turned "Off" but you are going through a Service Provider who charges for all Data Accessed even when you are using WiFi?Thanks for your comments, it is clear you understand my plight. The trouble is fully understanding what Apps and App Features are transferring data in the background any time you happen to turn WiFi to on (even if you have had it off most of the day or night). Obviously things like Location Services can constantly be sending and receiving data from my iPhone without any action on my part. Also if you have things like photo backup on the iCloud then each time you take a photo you are sending a copy out. All App Updates if set to Automatic also can add up to quite a bit of Data. Reading the News on AP or scrolling through FB News Feed is actually adding up to a lot of Data. There could be other culprits that I am not even thinking of. I don't want to turn Apps like Find My Phone off or turn iCloud off due to loosing the value of such a program entirely. Again thanks for your quick response.

Can i use the lightning to usb camera adapter for sony cybershotdsc-w380
DDoes anyone know how to use a lightning to sub camera adapter for a Sony cyber shot doc-w830
This discussion may help.
It mostly depends on the camera. Some cameras have a Transfer Mode, which does not attempt to charge while transferring pictures. does yours have such a setting?
Alternatively you can try to plug a powered USB hub between the camera and the USB connector so the power is provided by the HUB rather than the iPad.
Other than that, yes the Memory card reader may be a better option assuming your Camera uses Secure Digital (SD) type memory cards. -
Using your MacBook Pro as a Router For the Xbox 360
Not sure how many of you guys have 360s, but I've written up a guide to use your MBP as a connection point for the 360. Basically it involves sharing your Airport with the Ethernet port. Here goes.
How to Use a MacBook Pro as an Xbox 360 Internet Hub v.01
This guide is copyright 2006 Jonathan Ferguson.
If you would like to host it, email me at the address below.
All trademarks are copyright their respective owners.
I am not responsible for anything that happens that may screw up your Mac, 360, Internet, or anything else.
By reading further you accept full responsibility for any damages or troubles that occur as a result
of your using this guide. K?
Welcome! I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and did not feel like shelling out 130 dollars for the
360s Wireless Adapter.
Thus I set out to find a solution and it was my shiny new mac that came to the rescue.
I'm positive this can be done in Windows, but I've not taken the time (yet) to test it.
I think it's very simple to follow, but I do recommend that only those with patience and a will to learn attempt the setup.
Also if you don't know how to reset your router, I wouldn't recommend it either. But for the rest, on we go.
You will need these things for this adventure:
Broadband Internet Access
1 Xbox 360
1 CrossOver Cat 5 (NOT Patch, so NOT the one that came with the 360)
1 Macbook Pro (the regular Macbook may work, I haven't tested it)
1 Router with wireless and wired connections or 2 Routers linked together, one wired, one wireless.
Plug the cross cable into the ethernet port on the mac and the ethernet port on the Xbox 360. Turn both on.
Go to your system blade on the 360 into the network settings and go to the Sharing area of the
System Preferences on the MBP.
On the MBP make sure that your Airport Extreme connection is being shared with the Built-In Ethernet
(check the box next to Built In Ethernet and hit the start button at the top.).
Go into Network under System Preferences on the MBP.
Pick Built In Ethernet in the Drop Down menu. Write down the Subnet Mask and IP Address for the adapter,
you'll need that later.
Contact your router by punching it's IP into an internet browser. (I.E: 192.168.1.1).
This is usually the default IP for any router, so if you don't know what it is, try that one.
It'll also ask you for the password and username which are usually:
Login: admin
Pass: password
Login:
Pass: admin
or
Login: admin
Pass:
Once you're in find the DNS Addresses (DNS 1 and 2)
(under LAN not WAN if they're different) and write those down. Now it's time to go back to the Xbox.
In the settings tab you'll find a lot of stuff has been set to automatic.
This will not help you, so start changing the things to manual.
Once you get in there, input each piece of information like so:
IP Address: Have a look at the address of the Ethernet Adapter.
Copy it digit for digit only make the last number lower than the last number of the Ethernet Adapter.
(I.E if the Adapter is 111.211.13.5, make the 360 111.211.13.4)
Subnet: This is the Subnet Mask you got from the Ethernet Adapter.
Gateway: This is the IP address of the Ethernet Adapter (NOT the address of your router)
DNS: These are the DNS numbers you got from your router.
Now, before you allow the Xbox 360 to test the connection, make sure that you have a
wireless internet connection coming in on the mac, and that you're sharing it with the ethernet card.
Also, though I haven't tested it yet, keep the Ethernet card on DHCP. Putting it on manual might mess things up.
Et Voila! Let the 360 run the tests.
There's one test that'll take extra long to do but don't fret, it eventually goes through and works splendidly.
I'll update this as I see fit, and feel free to email me at: [email protected] to add/correct/contribute.Well that's nice and all, but why not just spend the 50 bucks on a router? Also, why do you need a crossover cable? Modern operating systems do not require crossovers anymore.

Cant get open nat type for PS3, it use to be but wont go back
im on Fios with the verizon router. I had the DMZ set to an ip with the PS3 also on it. the nat type was open and all was ok. I dont know how long its been this way (guessing not long because I have sucked at COD this week!) but I noticed im not at moderate. I checked the DMZ and the ip was still there. looked at PS3 and it was empty for some reason, so I put the ip back. ive restarted and tried other IPs andit will not go back to open. ive looked at youtube tutorials to be sure that im not missing anything but the vids seem tobe older because I have more options on the router settings than what the vids show, guess I have newer firmware. Any suggestions?
actually, Open is what you want. you have a lot better preformance online when dealing with fast paced games like COD. you will really notice a difference. generally you just designate an IP in the DMZ settings of the router, then tell the PS3 to only use that IP, and thats it. just seems now on my end thats no longer the case and cant get it to go

Using REST Update Notification Hub to add APNS certs fails with 409
Hi - I'm trying to use the Update Notification Hub REST call (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn223260.aspx) to add a valid APNS cert to an existing hub. When I do this, the update fails with a response code of 409 - which is not mentioned
in the possible codes on that documentation page... Seems to be complaining that hub already exists.
When I use the Create Notification Hub REST Call (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn223269.aspx) and include the proper <ApnsCredential> element it succeeds.
I see no difference in the docs between the two calls. The request body is described slightly differently. It appears to me that create and update are the same call? What causes a 409 when calling the Update method?
How am I supposed to update the push certs of an existing hub?
Thanks!The answer is that the HTTP spec implies that for REST style calls for updating a resource at the same URI - you need to include the "If-Match" header set to '*'
see: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd541480.aspx
and section 14.24 of RFC2616 ( http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt )
In my opinion this is a documentation bug - the Request Headers section of Update Hub ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn223260.aspx ) should mention it requires the "If-Match" header. It is required because without it
- this becomes a Create Hub call -
BBLink account is preventing priority hub from working for emails
The priority hub on my phone was working fine when I got my Q10 a couple months ago. Somewhere along the way it stopped working, but just for my email accounts--BBM, text, twitter, etc, kept working. I have spent some time trying to figure out why this happened, reading forum posts here and such with no luck.
In the end I settled for making some manual rules that mimicked the priority hub behavour. It was a pain, but it worked.
Then I had a seperate issue when adding a new email account, where my outlook contacts kept duplicating on my phone. In the end, I fixed this by removing accounts I wasn't using on the phone (mainly the bblink one), and deleting all my local contacts phone information, then readding the outlook account. This stopped the outlook duplicates from being created.
But low and behond, my priority hub started working again for emails. Which was great. But then a few days later, it stopped working again.
I figured out it happened when I plugged my phone into my computer to back it up. At this point the "bblink" account was made on my phone again. Then the priority hub stopped working for emails again.
Deleting the "bblink" account once again fixed the priority hub issue.
It's not a big deal, I can just delete this "bblink" account every time I back up my phone. But I have the Link program on my computer set to not sync or auto start anything. I just plug in the phone, run the backup, and unplug it.
So I'm just wondering if anyone knows what is going on here, or has experienced something similar.Tom-Zom-W wrote:
So if I have all the options in Link already turned off, any idea how I can run a backup yet prevent Link from syncing.
Also, is this BBLink account common to blackberry 10 devices? I checked a friends BB, he didn't have the account and also uses Link for backups.
Check your Link set for contacts and calendar and turn that off.

Possible USB port damage using non-powered USB hub?
Referring to the recent discussion on ruining firewire ports with damaged peripherals, a related question concerning the possibility of damage to the USB port:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7948387#7948387
I have an old iPod Shuffle, USB only, and a camera card reader, both of which which get pulled and connected "on the fly" to a bus powered USB hub which is attached to one of the USB ports on the iMac. Am I risking similar damage to the iMac USB port, itself, if something goes bad on the Shuffle or the card reader? Should I be using a POWERED USB hub to avoid direct damage to the iMac USB hub? (And, assuming it will have to be USB 2.0, will it be backwards compatible to USB 1.1?)No, my belief is that FireWire devices are more prone to damaging the circuitry behind the port due to connecting and disconnecting on-the-fly (compared to USB). There is supporting documentation on the web, for example.
http://www.wiebetech.com/whitepapers/FireWirePortFailures.php
http://lowendmac.com/misc/03/0421.html
(there are many more)
Mechanical failure (wear and tear) through constant plugging and unplugging is a secondary consideration.
If your FireWire device is constantly connected, this issue does not exist (and there is no wear and tear either). On my Intel iMac, my external FireWire drive is always connected, and I use the direct port on the Mac. If I ever need to disconnect it, I shut down my iMac and then disconnect. The other FireWire port is connect to a hub, and that is where I connect and disconnect FireWire devices on-the-fly (old iPod, small bus-powered drive, and video camera).
If your iPod shuffle is the old +thumb drive+ style with the USB plug, you should be using a self-powered hub. That may be why it is not reliable. Also, that plug on the old shuffle is the most likely part to fail, so it is possible that it is getting worn out. I bought a bunch of used and reportedly broken iPod shuffle (the older white type) on eBay to see if I could fix any of them. I would say, 80% of the time, it was broken due to a faulty USB plug (no data connection). On the rare ones broken for another reason, I used that good USB plug to get another shuffle working. (A few worked after using the iPod Reset Utility, without any other repair. )
But I'm getting off topic with the shuffle talk...
