Want to make an isolated subnet

I am wanting to set up an isolated subnet subordinate to my main subnet, but am seeking guidance before I go out and spend a bunch of money on stuff then find out that it won't work.
I want to place some (outdoor, in weather-proof enclosures) wireless network webcam servers onto my existing subnet. The wireless network webcam servers are TrendNet TV-IP301W (link opens in new browser window).
My existing network consists of a combo DSL modem with router and wireless. I rent the modem/router/WAP from my ISP. It does WPA2-AES, and all wireless computers connect to it using WPA2-AES.
The TrendNet webcam servers do NOT support WPA2-AES. The manufacturer has advised me that they have no plans of upgrading the firmware in that device to do so. At $300+ each, they are not something that I want to just throw away or take a big loss on eBay trying to sell.
So, I would like to hang an "isolated" WPA1-TKIP subnet (192.168.1.x) off of my existing (192.168.0.x) DSL modem subnet. My initial cut at a network topology design can be seen here (link opens in new browser window).
One of my main goals for this topology is to continue using the existing routing capabilities of the DSL modem (it can port forward to computers by hostname not IP address and those computers can have DHCP-assigned IP addresses). And, of course, the principal goal is to provide an isolated WPA1-TKIP wireless subnet for the TrendNets, from which rogue users, if they were able to surreptitiously affiliate to that subnet, could neither access any of the Macs affiliated to the 192.168.0.x home subnet nor leech free internet service at my expense.
I am looking at using two LinkSys WAP-54G routers, one in "client" mode so that its WAN side gets a DHCP-issued IPA from my DSL modem/router. The plan would be to strap it back-to-back with another WAP-54G, which would serve as the router for the TrendNets. Problem is, the first WAP54G apparently only works with another WAP54G, not with my ISP's combo modem/router/WAP.
However, it is my understanding that one of the versions of dd-wrt firmware may allow allow the first WAP-54G, when configured in client mode, to connect to a non-Linksys router. At least, this website suggests that this is the case.
The TrendNets are servers, so the only traffic that I want originating from any wirelessly affiliated device on the WPA1-TKIP subnet are "answers" to incoming webserver requests to the TrendNets. Those incoming requests would either be from computers on the 192.168.0.x subnet or from external internet traffic tunneled via ssh to one of the computers ("quicksilver") on the 192.168.0.x subnet. It would be desired to prevent rogue users affiliated to the 192.168.1.x subnet from initiating any connections going external to that 192.168.1.x.
So (finally!) my questions:
(1) has anybody ever flashed a WAP54G with this dd-wrt firmware and connected in client mode, using WPA2-AES, to a non-Linksys product?
(2) there seem to be several versions of the dd-wrt firmware loads out there, and it is not clear to me whatsoever how to select the correct one -- which one should I use?
(3) any problems seen with my proposed network topology?
(3) any hints or suggestions on how to quarantine any rogue traffic (i.e., traffic that is not TrendNet port 80 traffic) as described in the previous paragraph?
Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.

Hi j.v.
Have you tried the Linksys forums? I think you may get more help from a network type forum that uses the WAP54G than the Apple forums.

Greeting,
I want to reformat my external hard drive using Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted ) but before formatting it, I want to make sure that if I loose the hard drive or the hard drive get stolen, no one will be able to retrieve or recover the information on it so could you tell me what kind of encryption will be used or is there any way to recover the information?
Thanks!

I think FileVault is used to encryp internal hard drive but I wanna encrypt an external hard drive with Mac OS Extended Journaled Encrypted which is completely different!

I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv. I've been unable to locate an app that will do this.

I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv.
I've been unable to locate an app that will do this. The Photos app that comes with the phone or iPad has extremely limited duration controls. PhotoStream seems to load everything from my phone or iPad not allowing me to just load up a set group of images.
iPhoto for iPad is getting some terrible recent reviews. I tried a couple other free apps but they don't use Airplay.
I can do something like this with iPhoto and my MB Air, but it's kind of ugly to have the computer open in order to connect by Airplay to my Apple TV. I've thought the iPad or iPhone would be a lower profile controller.
Am I out of luck?

Thanks for your help. Since I'm uninterested in loading all my photos (the only option) into photostream, I won't be able to use the settings in ATV. I guess I'm just stuck with using iPhoto on my MB Air. Thanks again.

When I turn my computer on (Windows 7) I receive a message that Apple wants to make a change to the hardware. I click on yes but nothing happens. The change has something to do with Apple "push". I recently had a problem with"push" on iTunes when I tried to sync my iPod Touch. I have latest software for iTunes and iPod. Can anyone tell me what to do to get this change to install?

Since hardware cannot be changed with software, perhaps you would be so kind as to post the exact wording of the message?

Want to make my Ipad 4 into a second monitor

I have an iPad 4 and a macbook pro and I want to connect them and make my ipad a second monitor. I know that I have to download an app but I want to make sure that I get the best/right one.
I also saw that I can connect my ipad to my computer and control my computer from my ipad, so if anyone has experience with either of these things let me know!

If you plan on using your iPad as a semi permanent second display when working at your Mac, if you plan to do this for long periods of time, make sure your iPad is plugged into power.
These remote display apps tend to be more of a drain on the iPad's battery. Especially so if the remote display app uses Bluetooth instead of over WiFi.
I like and use an app called Air Display.
For using your iPad as a remote client to run your Mac remotely, there are a few decent apps for thiis, but it depend so what you really want to do.
I wanted remote control of my Mac, locally, so I use a remote app called SplashTop remote.
If you need remote location control of your Mac, also, there are other apps for that like LogMeIn and Team Viewer to name a few.

Hello and HELP! Over the years I have saved Invoices in my Documents. I have just tried to open them and all I am getting is " cannot be opened, Invoice**** is used by another user, do you want to make a copy?" That's on all my invoices.

Can someone help please.
I have just "lost" ( cannot open) all my saved Invoices in the Document folder. All I am getting is " cannot open, Invoice ** is used bey another user, do you want to make copy? " That doesn't work either. I can't get anything on the time capsule either. How can I reset to an earlier time? Or what can I do?
Thank you

Did you recently reinstall the OS then copy all your files back over? Do a Get info on one of the documents and see if your current UserName is listed and has Read & Write permissions. If not select the Documents folder and check that for Read & Write permissions for your UserName. If it doesn't have R & W permissions Add it so it does.

I want to take remote access from an iTunes library off of my iPad ...when I hit edit from the remote app it pulls that library up ..if I delete it I just want to make sure that I'm not remotely wiping out the library, just access to it from my iPad ?

Call the apple store you got it from and ask them. Sometimes in the past they've extended the 'no questions asked return' but only Apple can tell you for sure.

In case you're not clear - iPad/iPhone storage, and iCloud storage, are totally separate. Buying more iCloud storage does not give you more storage space on your device. Your device has a fixed storage space for apps and data (e.g., 16GB - which is more like 12GB in real terms). iCloud storage just allows you to store more documents, mail, photos, etc, in the cloud.

I bought an iPad and want to make sure it's on the same apple account but my phone always come up with a different apple Id?

I bought an iPad and want to make sure it's on the same apple account but my phone always come up with a different apple Id?

Remember - if you bought any apps with another ID you cannot update them with a different ID.
Try changing the ID in the App Store. Tap on Featured - swipe to the bottom of the screen - tap on the ID in the bottom left corner - and see if you can change it that way.
If that doesn't work, sign out of your account altogether, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
I guess I should ask - what ID is it coming up with and why is it coming up with that ID?

HT1689 I need to get my iPod to no longer be associated with the original i store account. My husband set it up through his account but now I have my own account. I don't want to go through his every time I want to make a change. how do I make this change

I need to get my iPod to no longer be associated with the original i store account. My husband set it up through his account but now I have my own account. I don't want to go through his every time I want to make a change. how do I make this change?

I am trying to stop using my I-pod under my husband's I-Tune account. It was set up under his account and the only way I can use it under my account is to erase all of the songs my husband loaded on for me. I had heard there is a duration that I-Pods are locked into to one account only, and I am trying to discover how I can use my account without having to erase everything on the I-Pod. I know it sounds confusing but that's the way I-tunes have set it up. thanks for asking.

It is not clear how or where you "added" your email, but you cannot create an Apple ID using an email address that is already associated with another Apple ID.
If that is what you did, delete that email address from your family's Apple ID. You should be free to create a new one.
Do all that by starting here: https://appleid.apple.com/
Select "Manage your Apple ID". Log in with your family's Apple ID and then delete your own email address wherever it appears.
Save Changes, log out, and create the new one using the same website. This time select "Create an Apple ID".
Please don't forget your security questions, and be sure to specify a "rescue email address" that is separate from all other Apple IDs. You will avoid so many problems that way...

I want to make a copy of slide show create from my own photographs and with a an audio track behind them. I have carefully followed the iDVD tutorials and burnt the result to a disc but image quality is very poor. What is wrong?

I want to make a DVD of a slide-show with an audio track behind the photographs. I have carefully followed the iDVD video tutorials but the result is far from satisfactory. The quality of the images on the resulting DVD are blurred and indistict although the original photographs are of a very high quality. Where am I going wrong? Would I have better results from a different program than the inbuilt iDVD and if so so what programs have others found to be better? I should be grateful for some expert guidance.

Hey Falcopebo,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Looks like you have image quality issues when using iDVD to burn.
iDVD 7.0: Burned DVD has interlacing, pixelation, or image quality issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4078
A standard DVD made by iDVD is made to the standard DVD resolution of 720 X 480, which is smaller than most HDTVs and monitors. When expanded to fit the entire screen or monitor, the image will distort slightly due to upscaling to fit the screen or monitor.
Have a nice day,
Mario

How can I change the billing country in my account? I want to make a purchase and the billing country isn't correct.

Hello,
please try first Adobe ID and registration support and Get help with orders, refunds, and exchanges and if necessary and for further questions and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.
Good luck!

I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

The computer (windows platform) where I initially began using Itunes has four other computers/devices that are shared with it. All four of the other computers show up in my account, and can be managed. Or I can remove them. But on the new computer that I want to be my base computer (home if you will). The computer I want it to replace, when ITunes is open, has a tool bar, with various functions. All of the other devices are linked to that computer in ITunes, under Home SHaring. The new computer, shows the downloads via Home Sharing, but it does not show/have any tool bar.
I want to activate the new computer to be the computer via ITunes where all of the devices are linked to it as the base for ITunes. And, I don't know how to make that happen.
I hope that makes sense.
