Valet M20 - Connecting another Valet Plus for more wireless connections

Can you hook up on Valet Plus to another Valet Plus for more wireless connections?

Like UnknownHero has asked, how many devices do you intend to connect? A single Valet Plus shouldn’t have trouble handling a normal home network which laptops, wifi phones, media players, DVRs etc.
But to answer your question, yes, it is possible.

Setting up your Valet or Valet Plus for the first time

Pam,
from what i have gathered while trying to set mine up, the Time Capsule doesn't like other things broadcasting a wireless signal while it is trying to do the same... or at least, the other computers in the area can only recognize one at a time.
So, in your case, you are using your MacBook Pro to wirelessly share the AirCard connection, right? If so, your computer is acting as a router, which means you have two devices trying to connect your computers to the same network wirelessly. I think this is why your computer isn't able to "see" your time capsule wirelessly. What i would recommend for you is to hook up your aircard to a computer that is not used very often, and (if it has a wireless adapter), turn the wireless adapter off. This way, you have only one device doing the wireless connecting (the Time Capsule in Bridge mode), which will direct internet traffic through ethernet to the connected computer.
So, in conclusion, i just don't think it's possible to do what we want to do completely wirelessly.

How to add another Chapter Page for more then 6 chapters & add right arrow?

Hello,
I created a project via the Magic iDVD option and it worked great and added multiple chapter pages for more then 6 chapters. Now, I manually added a submeno off of main and added 6 chapters but I need multiple pages since I have 40 chapters... I can't figure out how to add another chapter page and create a RIGHT ARROW navigation button for the next pages...
I also looked at the map view and see that on the working pages there is page connected to page... I also cannot find a way to add a page connected vi map view...
I have searched the forum but none of the answers were clear on how to do this... any help would be appreciated...
Thanks! T.

Adding the submenu is easy...making the button for it a "right arrow" is not.
You can keep adding submenus to other submemus by navigating to the appropriate menu and then choose the "add submenu" command from the iDVD project menu. This can be done in either normal or map view.
However, this creates a "folder" button, (or other things in some themes) not a right arrow. I agree it should be a choice! My 2nd best solution is to chage the folder button to a "text only button" and label it "More Chapters > >"
Another solution (3rd best??) is to use command-shift-4 when you are one one of your other menus that DOES have a right arrow, and take a mini picture of the arrow. Then choose one of the oval menu buttons on the button pane, and drag this tiny picture onto the button. Re-size it to make it close to the same size as your other buttons. It will have a funny edge on it from the button style, but it will look like a right arrow.

Another big plus for the Nokia Booklet - NO HEAT!

I can't tell you how nice it is to have a laptop/netbook nestled on my lap for a long time without it getting HOT! Sure, there is the tiniest bit of warmth from the battery, but truly negligible - such a pleasure, and without any nasty fan noises either- well done Nokia!

really great
bought my 3G a day ago and can't let hands off it
such a fun usin it the whole day without any cable attached on it and 0 noise

Hi Cat,
I have kept my zen v plus for more than 7 hrs for the initial charge, still the Play icon not appeared on the display, its showing still the battery charging flash icon.
TELL ME WHAT TO DO?
Thanks & Regds,

Depends on how strong your wifi connection is.
you can try a reset hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.

VERIZON CHANGED HIGH SPEED DSL AT CENTRAL OFFICE AFTER I HAD 7.840 MBPS FOR MORE THAN 10 MONTHS!!!

ALL OF THE SUDDEN VERIZON DECIDES IN LATE APRIL THAT I SHOULD HAVE 7.1 MBPS INSTEAD OF THE 7.840 MBPS I HAVE BEEN HAVING FOR MORE THAN 10 MONTHS. AS A MATTER OF FACT, AFTER A LOT OF DISCONNECTIONS SUFFERED IN MARCH/APRIL 2012 BECAUSE VERIZON WAS DOING SOMETHING IN THEIR CENTRAL OFFICE WITHOUT TELLING TO THEIR CUSTOMERS, AND HAVING TO REPLACE ALL OF THE DSL FILTERS, AND TWO MODEMS... I GOT THE D-LINK WORKING AT 7.840 MBPS. AS A MATTER OF FACT, VERIZON TECHNICIAN CAME TO MY HOME AND WE DID INSTALL THE NEW MODEM AT THAT VERY SPEED, WHICH WAS AGREED MORE THAN 1 YEAR AGO AFTER DOING A LOT OF TESTING TO ENSURE THE STABILITY IN THE CONNECTION. ALL OF THE SUDDEN, AFTER THE 20-DAY HONEYMOON WITH MY NEW MODEM, I NOTICED THAT MY SPEED WAS NOT THE SAME, AND FOUND OUT THAT THE IP WAS CHANGED AND THE SPEED SETTING DROPPED TO 7.1 MBPS. NOW VERIZON CLAIMS THAT MY CONTRACT WAS FOR A MAXIMUM OF 7.1 MBPS WHICH IS NOT TRUE BECAUSE I WAS IN THE 7-15 MBPS RANGE!!! AS A MATTER OF FACT I COULD GO EVEN OVER 8 MBPS BUT BECAUSE OF MY LOCATION, RELATIVELY FAR AWAY FROM THE CENTRAL OFFICE AND AFTER A LOT OF TESTING, 7.840 MBPS WAS THE MOST CONVENIENT SPEED. VERIZON CHANGES THEIR POLICIES NOT NOTIFYING THE CUSTOMERS, THEY DO WORK INTERRUPTING THE SERVICE WITHOUT NOTIFYING. I AM GOING TO WAIT AND SEE WHAT THEY DO IN THIS CASE. IF THIS IS NOT SOLVED PROPERLY... GOOD BYE VERIZON, AND HELLO TIME WARNER CABLE!!! SO, VERIZON BE PREPARED TO LOSE ANOTHER LOYAL CUSTOMER FOR MORE THAN 9 YEARS!!! THAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH VERIZON, THEY ARE SO DEDICATED TO GET NEW CUSTOMERS THAT FORGET ABOUT THEIR OLD LOYAL ONES... UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES... AND THOSE ARE THAT YOU WILL LOSE THE OLD ONES SOON BECAUSE YOUR LACK OF CARE ABOUT THEM!!! ONCE YOU ARE HOOKED WITH VERIZON, THEY THINK THEY GOTCHA FOREVER... LET'S WAIT AND SEE...

Believe or not... That 20% does make a difference... In one of my games, I used to have 5.3 secs of response time, now it does not lower from 7.8. By the way, even my PC worked faster when I had that little higher speed... I know the changes were done without my knowledge because for a period of 2 weeks I got lot of unstability in my connection that I never got for years before... After 20 days with the first IP assigned to the new modem, the speed dropped like Verizon was running a program to levelize such an speed.
At the end, what really bothers me, is that the 7.840 Mbps was a speed agreed with Verizon, their technicians, their supervisors at the CO, and it was fully documented, and all of the sudden because an "internal change in their policies" that agreement was broken... I am currently making arrangements to have FIOS installed at home, subject to an scouting visit from Verizon to evaluate the feasibility of its installation according to my internal wiring limitations. I have to give them a try... No doubt that it would me cheaper and much faster than the high speed enhanced internet connection that I currently have. Let's wait and see...
Thank you for your interest in my case and observations made too.

Can't connect with Valet Plus on a Vista computer

Hey all,
I'm having major problems when I try to hook up my Vista laptop with my Valet Plus.
I've connected:
A Windows 7 laptop
An iPod Touch
A MacBook Pro
But for some reason, this laptop just doesn't want to do it. Every time I use the key, it only installs to 25%; I've tried DCHP reserving an IP based on its MAC address in the back end — dunno what to do.
Thanks for any help!
--Case

I'm having the same problem. Have 3 laptops with Vista operating systems that can't connect wirelessly to my Valet. They all could a one point several months ago, but now they can't identify the network and show "Limited access". My other laptops with XP and Win7 connect fine. - So I can only guess that this is something that may have happened with some download that either created a conflict or changed a setting somewhere. Any ideas anyone??? I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure this one out. I have the setup key, and like I said everything worked fine til a few months ago.

"Set Web Site Rule" window is annoying. how do i shut off this function it poped up more than a dozen times to connect to even this web site? then i had to click it another dozen plus times to get this site open !!!! ???

when ever i put in an address or click on a site a "Set Web Site Rule" window pops up asking if i want Firefox exe to allow some function to occur. it does not seem to be security related but rather simple functions. Step 1, step 2 , blah blah . "Set Web Site Rule" window is annoying. how do i shut off this function it popped up more than a dozen times to connect to even this web site? then i had to click it another dozen plus times to get the next mozilla site open !!!! ??? if firefox does not know what it is doing how can i??????
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== i am just setting up this pc how ever i down loaded the most recent version 3.6.3

by submiter - self solved: (thanks for the psychic help)
seems the problem was not with Firefox itself. Rather it seemed to have been an ad-blocker program called "WebMonitor" . i began by deleting Firefox and then opened Explorer (which i seldom do) and the same thing began to happen with MSN. So i
began deleting anti-virus programs till i came to the above mentioned freeware ad blocker "WebMonitor". it is a shame because i uised to have a program that blocked all ads on a web site which was such a relief to me.

I have an airport extreme for my main internet connection, an express to listen to music on my home theatre, another express to extend the network upstairs, and one more express for my wireless printer. whats the best way to setup the express stations?

So basically I would like to know if its best to have them setup on "join a wireless network" or "extend a wireless network"
Obviously the one I use to extend the network is setup that way, the other 2 are set on "join a network"
is this the optimal configuration? or should I have them all on "extend a wireless network" ?

There is really no "best" setting here for the AirPort Express devices. If you need more wireless coverage in the area where an Express is located, then it makes sense to configure the Express to "extend" a wireless network.
If you already have good coverage in an area where an Express is located, then the "join" configuration makes sense.
I've yet to meet the first user who felt that he/she had too much wireless signal coverage in their home, but you never know.

E2000 and Valet Plus as Router/AP - Is this a good pairing?

I am trying to determine the best option for extending my home network. I am currently running an E2000 as my router and am considering the purchase of a Valet Plus to use as only an Access Point. Alternatively I have a used E1000 in good condition. Which would be best for use as an Access Point only?
Is there another/better option I should be looking at.
Thank you.

Valet Plus and E2000 is a good combination. Just make sure that everything is configured properly. Make sure as well that the firmware for both are up to date to avoid connectivity problems in the future. If you wish to extend your signal to a place on your house where you are having problems with the signal, you may consider a range extender or you can also try Powerline Adapters.

M-20 Valet Plus Throughput

I recently signed up for boosted bandwidth and installed a better "n" modem, but my router isn't cooperating.
My M20 Valet Plus ( v1.0.04 build 7 Dec, 2010) chokes throughput to 10%, ie 30 mbps input yields 3.0 mbps output.
In Zdnet speed runs on my wiFi laptop the needle bounces off 30, and settles in at 3.0.
Sometimes it also chokes the service through the Ethernet port for my PC.
Is there a remedy (such as a re-jiggered Valet setting) other than router replacement.?

Hi twillz,
Just to verify, is the speed (throughput) issue happening on wired or wireless?
If it's through a wired connection, you can change the MTU size to 1452 (on the router's interface page) or you can do a firmware upgrade.
If it's through a wireless connection, you can play around with the router's channels. You can set it to either 1, 6, 9, or 11.
Try checking your laptop's WiFi adapter. Even if your router is running on N technology and your laptop's adapter is running on G technology, you'd still be getting a slow wireless connection.
The router's Security mode can also affect the router's performance (speed). If it's on WEP, try changing it to WPA2 Personal.

Internet speed sluggish after valet plus install

Hi there,
after spending over 48 hours trying to configure my valet plus I had success.
I installed my Valet plus router after a Netgear modem/router which I set as modem only, and turned the wireless function off.
After finally being able to access the internet I noticed some flash streaming video sites don't work anymore, and places like youtube take forever to download, not to mention if you try to watch something as soon as the page loads. And most internet pages take a while to load... Any ideas? I have only one PC connected to the Valet and 3 connected as guests through the guest side.???
Thanks
Vista sp2
Valet plus m20
netgear DG834g wireless modem router set as modem only with no wireless function.

Well, my Valet Plus started acting weird again and my internet speed went back to the stone age.
Does anyone from Cisco that can actually make a difference in how they act on complaints read these posts?
Can't someone just make a sticky on how they recognize there is a problem and are working to resolve it?
I am returning my valet plus as soon as I am able to because as soon as I connected my old router back speeds got 1000% better.
And dont tell me to change the MTU or some other bull... That should be done automatically, NOT by the end user since the Valet is supposed to be an easier alternative to whats out there today and so far Ive had to deal with problems since I had this thing...

HP LaserJet 1300 not connected for more than 1 day

Since Apple came out with the Yosemite printing system, I cannot print wirelessly for more than one day. I have reset my modem, changed the location of my network, unplugged and repowered Airport Extreme, started in Safe Mode, and more.
No matter what I do: I either get: a printer name with a number in parenthese or a long Bonjour number when deleting and adding a printer on my laptop.
Whatever I do, it only works from about 24 to 36 hours. Then when i go to print it says Printer is Not Connected. I can delete and add again, usually it will find the printer, add it, print, and then a day or two later, the printer is not connected again.
But I have to keep redoing this both to my laptop and my wife's, and we have not had reliable printing since Yosemite cane out about October 18, 2014.
Equipment
iMac:
Operating Sysem: 10.10.1
Printer: HP LaserJet 1300
Network: Comcast
Router: Airport Extreme
The only thing I have not done I can think of is reset Airport Extreme. I can do that, but don't know if I will then have additional problems.
This all started with the YIosemite update but at this point I don't know if it is an HP-related problem or a general Yosemite-related problem.
I appreciate any help I can get. Have wasted probably 40 hours over two-plus months trying to get this fixed. When Apple could not fix it back in October, the person referred me to HP. The person at HP Business did not know my printer was supported for Yosemite although his own web site said it was. So that was not much help And after resetting printers, deleting and adding printers, etc., I don't know what else to do.
Thanks for listening.

Need Help reactivating cisco valet plus after 2 yrs

I had previously installed the cisco wireless at my old apartment. I've moved since and now I'm having difficulty setting it up at my new place. The old network I created pops up but seems locked. But when I click connect using the easy set up I keep getting an error message saying that there is no internet connection. I refuse to pay to $39.99 for troublshooting support after already spending so much on the device. I tried to reset it to the factory setting but that didn't seem to work.
If anyone can help me I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!

To set up a Linksys router, you need to perform four (4) steps using the computer that is registered with the ISP:
i. Verifying Internet connection
ii. Connecting devices together
iii. Checking the router’s LEDs
iv. Configuring a Linksys router for DSL Internet connection
QUICK TIPS:
The router’s power adapter needs to be plugged to your router and into an available power outlet.
If using a wired connection, the first Ethernet cable needs to be plugged to the computer’s LAN port into any of the router’s blue numbered Ethernet ports.
The second Ethernet cable should be plugged to the modem’s Internet port and the other end into the router’s yellow Internet port.
Ensure that you have no firewall enabled that may prevent the router from being detected.
Here is the link for setting up your Linksys Wireless Valet router for the first time using Cisco Connect: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=e30f926604334d538668529cb50ad174_21463.xml&pid=80&...
If you still encounter problems installing the router using the Cisco Connect program, you may configure the router manually according to the type of Internet service you have. Follow the instructions below for your specific Internet service type:
