Weird issue when trying to use two computers on the same network.

Hi all...i just just moved house and i'm using a different connection with my time capsule.
basically i've just plugged the modem into the ethernet port on the timecapsule as usual, and now for some reason me and my partner cannot use the computers to access the net at the same time
my access will halt as soon as he starts, and the only way to gain access again is to renew the DHCP lease, which subsequently boots him off....
anyone know how to fix this?

it's a wireless modem. not like a usb stick with a 3g connection. it's called unwired here in australia....its crap, but im using it for the next few days until my cable connection is installed at the new house.
it's pretty much the same as a regular modem and has an ethernet port on it which you can either use to connect directly into your system, or plug into a router or wifi (or in my case, time capsule which i'm using as the wireless base station)
i've just done the usual thing of plugging the ethernet cable from the modem into my time capsule, and it seems to work fine as long as it's only one user on the network. but as soon as someone else jumps in, their system gets access and mine stops. the only way to get mine working again is to renew the DHCP lease in networking preferences, but that ends up booting the other person off.
i havent changed any settings at all and we never had this issue at the old house...so i'm not sure if its some configuration with the time capsule, or if it's something weird about the dodgy modem i'm using...

  • Use two interfaces on the same network

    Hello every one,
    I actually starting to work on a cisco project. I'm a beginner on networking and cisco technologie.
    For my project we use a router 2921.
    We got two network:
    - Network A: 192.198.0.X / 255.255.255.0 / Gateway 192.198.0.1
    - Network B: 162.168.0.X / 255.255.0.0 / Gateway 162.168.0.1
    Each network use switch, Switch A (connecting to network A) is connected to interface G0/0.
    And Switch B (connecting to network B) is connected to interface G0/1.
    Router well configured as:
    - G0/0: ip address 192.198.0.1 255.255.255.0 (network A)
    - G0/1: ip address 162.168.0.1 255.255.0.0 (network B)
    Every think working fine.
    The problem is with this one, we need to connect a computer on G0/2. This computer is configure as network A (192.198.0.10 / 255.255.255.0 and same gateway).
    I can't configure G0/2 as 192.198.0.1 255.255.255.0 (network A), cause G0/0 use this adresse.
    I can't put this computer on the switch A, my only physical possibilité is to connect him on G0/2.
    We just need to use interface G0/0 and G0/2 as a switch on the router with the same gateway (192.198.0.1)
    How can i connect this computeur? How can i configure two interfaces on the same network and same gateway?
    Thanks you

    I would just put the PC on a different network, but if you really want it to be in the same network, you could use IRB to connect two of the interfaces on the router at layer 2.
    Here is an example config for IRB:
    interface FastEthernet0/0
    bridge-group 1
    interface FastEthernet0/1
    bridge-group 1
    bridge irb
    interface BVI1
    ip address 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0
    bridge 1 route ip
    Notice that the physical ports do not have IP addresses on them, the IP for the subnet is on the BVI interface.

  • Can I use two computers with the same Icloud account

  • Why can't Apple TV's and iOS devices see home sharing on my Windows 7 computer when iTunes libraries on other computers on the same network and connected to the same Home Sharing can?

    I have never previously had any problems with Home Sharing, I have always found it to be completely reliable as advertised. I have 2 computers in the house, (one MacBook and one Windows Desktop) connected to the same Home Sharing account, connected to the same BT Home Hub 4. My situation is that I have nearly 2TB of data of which I would like to share with the home wirelessly, in my mind the desktop is the logical place for this to be shared from.
    When running, iTunes on this desktop broadcasts to other iTunes libraries, but no other iOS devices or Apple TV's connected to the same Home Sharing account cannot see it.
    I have tried turning Home Sharing off, and then turning it back on, closing iTunes, restarting the computer, going to Network and Sharing Centre and unticking IPv6 in the network adapter properties, even completely wiping the computer and reinstalling Windows 7.
    One of the Apple TV's in the house was recently purchased by my parents with the promise from me that everything would work seamlessly... so far it isn't and I am frustrated that the Apple technology that I have come to rely on isn't working as expected.
    One thing that has occurred to me upon writing this is that it is a very large amount of data, and I have not attempted to share this with another computer that is currently working and broadcasting it's Home Share fine.
    I am sorry if I have ommitted any important details, any further questions don't hesitate to ask. I would be so grateful of any suggestions, my parents are depending on me.

    I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem.  The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6.  (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
    So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
    You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
    Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!

  • Using two e2000 on the same network

    I purchased two e2000s for my home network.  Since the routers do not work on both bands at the same time, I decided to set one up for 2.4Ghz and the other on 5Ghz.  I had to set them up separately but hooked up to the internet while setting them up (obvoiusly, since it cannot be done otherwise).
    I had everything set up like I wanted (primary e2000 is 192.168.1.1 with DHCP enabled, 2.4 Ghz and secondary e2000 is 192.168.1.2 DCHP disabled, 5Ghz, wired together) and each running a guest network.  I figured i'd have 2 guest networks, one for b,g,n and one for high-speed n. 
    Currently, everything works fine, except the secondary guest network did not come back up when I connected everything back together.  I think once I set the secondary router to 192.168.1.2, the guest network went away.  Of course, I cannot access the secondary router via the connect software since I changed the IP address manually, and I cannot try to reset the guest network.  Before I go back and work on my secondary router so I can get my second guest network back (yes it was working fine originally) is it possible to run the guest network if the base IP is not 192.168.1.1?  I'd rather not waste a few more hours if it is not possible.
    Thanks for any help.

    Correct. The guest network is a network for guests which you would like to have internet but not access your LAN. If you want them to access your LAN as well you give them your main network passphrase.
    Not using the internet port on the second E2000 is not in the user manual either. While possible, it's not really a fully officially supported setup. It's not in the user manual. It's not supported by the setup program. You'll only find it into the FAQ/KB.
    If you don't use the internet port there are a lot of features which don't work because they only affect traffic between the LAN and the internet port and vice versa, access restrictions, dyndns, etc.

  • Sharing two computers on the same network

    I have a mac mini and a mac air and wish to synch/share the entire Itunes with each other.  I have turned on home sharing but do not see the devices listed with each other.  They are both on the same network and can be seen by apple tv.

    The only way I know to share iTunes Libraries is to do what you said you did. Turn on Home Sharing for both devices. You will only see the device's Library (under Shared) in the Sidebar of iTunes. You won't see the actual device.
    For example I have an rMBP and a Mac Mini. Both have Home Sharing turned on in iTunes. From the Mac Mini, I see the rMBP's iTunes Library. From the rMBP, I see the Mac Mini's iTunes Library.

  • Can you setup handoff to work with two mac computers on the same network?

    I am attempting to setup handoff to work with two computers on the same network. I cannot seem to get it to work. Should I be able to?

    I'm not sure but I haven't seen anything on the Apple site that indicates that it would not work. The following troubleshooting documents may help: Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite - Apple Support
    Note in particular the Mac models supported. The other thing that occurs to me is that in addition to being on the same network they would have to be within Bluetooth range of each other.

  • One again, "can I use CC on two computers at the same time?" - in practice.

    I know this has been asked before and all those threads are locked. Many asked the question, but I haven't found a satisfying answer yet.
    Can I multi task with CC?
    I want to have my laptop next to my desktop. And while I render, export or whatever my newly shot documentary on the laptop I want to work with a music video project on my desktop. Then when the render is finished I render the music video and go back to the laptop and continue on the documentary. Or maybe I just work 5 minutes on the desktop music video, then come up with something brilliant for the project on the laptop and switch. Back and forth. Will that kind of activity result in any kind of limitation, usage-wise?
    So, working on Premiere on my two computers at the same time.. is it possible? Technically? I know the EULA says "only one person". But will it let one person mutli task?
    I need to know this before I buy. sorry for asking this again, please bless me with a clear answer

    Hi Jimmy Crim,
    Yes in case of Creative cloud subscription you are allowed to install and use the cc apps in any two machines.
    Even if you want you care allowed to use these apps together in both the machines.
    Thanks

  • Two computers share the same wi-fi Modem . When computer A reads a message it is marked as read on both PC's, not allowing computer B to see what must be read.

    Imap wasn't designed for this kind of multi user situation. It assumes that you the account owner will be using it to manage one account via multiple devices. So once you have read a message it has been read, regardless of which device you were using at the time.
    You appear to be describing a situation where you want more than one user to read each message, without anyone knowing if anyone else has read it or even dealt with it. Frankly, I can't imagine a set of circumstances where this workflow would make sense or be useful.
    You can do various things such as manually setting messages as unread, or moving them from one folder to another to indicate that they have been processed, but much of this relies on users being thorough and conscientious.
    You may need to be running your own server to do this sort of email message managing, if you really need to fork a message so it gets to multiple recipients. Managing which users see a particular message is a job for a server, not the end-user's email client.

  • "500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable sele

    Hi Experts,
    I am getting "500 internal server error" when trying to use F4 help in the variable selection screen (in WAD).
    How could this be resolved?
    Quick reply would be very helpfull.
    Thanks in advance !!

    It seems you are using wrong client ID. Make sure your logon pad has right details. You should verify this with your basis team.
    If the problem persists then try re-installing. But before you do that you can execute sapbexc.xla which is in the c:\program files\sap\bw. Type c:\ in cell c3 and click "start button". Any red flag means you have wrong version dll/ocx on your local drive, in that case you should reinstall with right patches.

    Transferring playlists
    If you want not only your content but also your playlists to exist on your new computer, you will want to transfer a copy of all your playlists from your old computer. To do this, choose File > Library > Export Library on your old computer. Save the XML file that is created to your desktop.
    Send the playlists file to yourself as an e-mail attachment, use an external drive, or use file sharing to move the playlists file to your new computer. Once the file is on your new computer, open iTunes and choose File > Library > Import Playlist. The import process will remove any items from the playlists that you didn't share via Home Sharing.

  • Cannot connect two computers to the same game server HELP!

    I have a Linksys WRT54G Router.  I have two computers and I want to be able to use them on the same gaming server.  Unfortunately, the game only have one port, so I can only port forward one of my computers.  How can I configure my router to have two external IP addresses to the server so it won't kick one of my computers out.  Thanks!

    Hi,
    I am in a gaming community and many members have a Linksys at home (but I don't know which kind exactly). Many of us try to connect two computers to the same server (many have a family). It seems it is a common problem that no one can connect two computers to the same game server.
    I have a BEFSR41 V3 Firmware version 1.04.8
    I use fixed IP address and no connectivity problem on Internet.
    I have win XP SP2 on both computer.
    I am using a DSL modem
    I can connect the two computers to two different game servers at same time, but not the same server. Default port for this game is the same for all servers I use. I tried with both port forwarding enabled (in that case one PCs can connect the other not) or not (in the second case, whenever the second PC connects, the first one lose his connection to the server, no mater the order I try to connect my PCs).
    Now the weird thing is that one member in my community just decided to throw away his Linksys router and he bought another brand (which I won't name to remains politically correct). Now, without changing anything in his PCs or his connection type, he can now play with two PC on the same server.
    I am seriously thinking doing the same move. Since more and more game are now using Internet (and servers that controls piracy, $$) and family want to play together, not being able to connect two PCs on the same game server makes Linksys in bad situation from marketing point of view.
    For example, in my gaming communtity, we now all know that Linksys can't handle two PC on same server, but other brand can...
    Thank you in advance for your help.

  • PLEASE HELP. Two computers with the same External IP Address

    I have two computers with the same IP address which is causing problems. I tried to ipconfig/release ipconfig/renew but I get the error "No operation can be performed on a Local Area Connection* 11 while it has its media disconnected.
    I tried resetting router/modem, made sure "Obtain an IP address automatically" are all enabled. DHCP is enabled.
    Two of the computers have the same one and the other IP is completely different (not 1 or 2 off). When I open the router settings and click DHCP Reservation it shows the IPs 1 number off and all different like you said. i.e ***.***.*.106, ***.***.*.107,
    ***.***.*.108. But with the proxy service I'm using, when trying to allow each computer to use them it shows different IP addresses than what is shown in the DHCP Reservation.
    If I clone my MAC address the identical IP of the two computers changes but they'll still share the same IP. The third doesn't change.
    I tried ipconfig /release - ipconfig /renew - ipconfig /flushdns nothing yet. Not sure about your #2 and #3. And I just updated my firmware.
    Anyone with expertise? Thanks.

    Cyber_Defend_Team and ZigZag3143x I powered down all three computers and turned off/reset the modem and router.
    I restarted them one by one and after, the two computers with the conflicting IP address changed their IPs but their IPs are still conflicting.  The third computers IP stayed the same.
    What else can we do?
