What Is The Difference Between A Router Extender & A Bridge?

Since I was here, I just thought I'd ask what is the difference between a router extender like the RE 1000 and what is known as a bridge?  Does one work better than the other?  Is one better for one thing, like a wired DVD player, than the other?

The RE1000 can act as range extender as well as bridge where as the versatile Wireless Ethernet Bridge can make a wired Ethernet-enabled device a part of your wireless network.
If we talk abuot the functionality in the bridge mode, then in that case both will be same the only difference will be, WET610N will be getting DUAL frequency i.e. 2.4GHz and 5GHz from the wireless network if that is also a DUAL band.

  • What's the difference between transport route and transport layer

    what's the difference between transport route and transport layer,Can somebody give me some explaination? thks in advance!

    Hi,
    Transport Layer in ABAP Workbench
        The Change and Transport System supports the distribution of development
        work on large projects across multiple SAP Systems.
        The packages in each development system are grouped into one transport
        layer.
        The transport layer determines whether objects are assigned to a local
        or transportable change request.
    Use
        Each of your SAP development systems is assigned a transport layer as
        its standard transport layer. If you use Extended Transport Control, you
        can assign different standard transport layers to certain clients.
        You can define at the most one consolidation target for each SAP System
    and transport layer.
    When you create a package, it is assigned the standard transport layer
    of the SAP System.
    If you want to assign a different transport layer to a package, you
    require the administration authorization for the Change and Transport
    System.
    The objects in a package automatically have the transport attributes
    defined for the corresponding transport layer.
    o   If a consolidation route originating in their SAP System is defined,
         then the objects are assigned to a transportable request, and
         transported into the consolidation target when it is released.
    o   If a consolidation route is not defined, the objects are assigned to
         a local request, and are not transported.
    Customizing settings are not assigned to a package. They have the
    transport attributes of the standard transport layer of the system or
    client.
    It is best to assign a package a standard transport layer for which a
    consolidation route originating in the development system is defined.
    To display and maintain the transport layers and routes, use the
    Transport Management System (transaction STMS).
    Only the system adminstrator can make changes.
    Caution:
         The tables TSYST, DEVL, TWSYS, TASYS are no longer productive as of
         Release 4.0A and cannot be maintained.

  • What is the difference between Classic and Extended Withholding Tax

    Hi,
    Can some please tell me what is the difference between Classic Withholding and Extended Withholding Tax. How can I look at the Withholding Tax deducted from a particular invoice?
    Number Guaranteed.
    Thanks.

    Dear Prem,
    Withholding tax is the basically a tax withheld during the Vendor payment. So when making the payment to vendor the amount will be deduct (i.e withheld tax)
    from the invoice and paid. The customer is actually the tax to tax authorities.
    you can visit for more info.
    Withholding Tax
    For the config steps you go to the IMG path FI > Financila accounting for the Global settings > Withholding Tax
    Withholding tax configuration is done by FI person.
    Hope this helps you

  • What is the difference between WDS and Extending a network?

    What is the difference between the two? Why choose one over the other?

    Both the WDS and "Extend a wireless network setting will add more coverage area to a wireless network.
    WDS must be used if any device on the network is an older "g" device. The downsides to WDS are that it drops the overall wireless speed down to "g" levels (even if there are other newer "n" routers on the network) and cuts the bandwidth capability of the network in half for each "remote" device that is added to the network. That's a really severe loss in performance.
    "Extend a wireless network" is a newer technology that can be used only if all of the routers on the network are newer "n" capable devices. It allows full "n" speeds and imposes only a small bandwidth penalty on the network. Obviously, this is the setup to use if your devices will support the technology.

  • What's the difference between WDS and Extend Wireless Network?

    Hi,
    I have a situation where my main computer (Mac Pro) is wired to an Extreme (n), and I have an Express (n) in another room in the house to Bridge to other computers for better wireless reception.
    The manuals say I should be connecting the wireless computer via WDS. The way I have it connected right now is as such.
    Extreme:
    Create a wireless network
    Allow this network to be extended is checked
    Express:
    Extend a wireless network
    Allow wireless clients is checked
    Is the above method correct, or should I be setting the Extreme and Express via: Participate in a WDS network?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I am not an expert on wireless networks but here is what they do in a nut shell:
    WDS is a network composed by access points that work together to expand your network without the need of "wired" connectivity. so one of the bases will be wired, the rest are not , they just relay info to other computers... good for small to medium size business / homes
    EWN is a network composed of wired & wireless networks/access points that work together to expand your network. pretty much you could have 5+ bases plugged in to a LAN / WAN covering different areas of your company / home (long range for medium / big business / Bill Gate's home, etc.).

  • What's the difference between "Extend" or "Join" a wireless network?

    I have a Time Capsule as my main base station and an Airport Express I'd like to use on another floor of my home for an internet connection for my Blu-ray player and to stream music via Airtunes. If I connect the Express to the Blu-ray using Ethernet and to my speakers with an audio cable, should I set up the Express to Extend or Join my network? What's the difference between "Extend" or "Join" a wireless network?

    If I connect the Express to the Blu-ray using Ethernet and to my speakers with an audio cable, should I set up the Express to Extend or Join my network?
    Extend.
    What's the difference between "Extend" or "Join" a wireless network?
    When you configure the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) to "join an existing wireless network" it will perform like any other wireless client (laptop, printer, etc.) that connects to that wireless network. It will NOT perform as a router nor extend the wireless range of (in this case) the Time Capsule (TC).
    However, if you configure the AX to "extend a wireless network" it will perform as an additional wireless access point to your TC's wireless network, effectively extending the TC's wireless range. In addition, the AX's Ethernet port will also be enabled and you can connect a single Ethernet client or multiple ones if you connect an Ethernet switch instead.

  • Which airport is good to extend my wifi, what is the difference between the AirPort Extreme and the airport express base sstation

    What is the difference between the AirPort Extreme and the airport express base station and which one can extend my wifi router.

    With rare exceptions of a few older routers, neither one can extend a non-Apple router's network wirelessly - they are not designed that way - but you can extend the wireless network if the Extreme is hardwired to the router or you can connect wirelessly and join the network as an access point that will provide remote ethernet access but not produce or extend the wireless signal - here is a comparison of the Apple base stations - http://www.apple.com/wifi/

  • What's the difference between Routing and Service Callout in ALSB?

    I am puzzled by that.
    what's the difference between them.
    Or what's the situation should use Routing, and that of service callout?

    There is little difference between routing and service callout.
    Routing is symbolizes the transition of request thread to a response thread starts. (in OSB every invocation of proxy is undertaken by different request and response threads ). So by this definition, there can be only one route node in a pipeline.
    Service call out is also used for similar actions as route node , but in pipeline. So service callout can be either in request pipeline (request thread) or in response pipeline (response thread ) . So in a proxy you can have multiple ServiceCallouts but only one route node.
    There are some other slight differences.

  • Whats the difference between implements and extends!??

    Can an interface be extended or not??
    If it can whats the difference between implements and extends??
    Thank you!

    Code Sample:
    interface a implements aa{This is illegal. An interface cannot implement another interface. It can only extend another interface.
    interface a extends aa{That's the way to do it. As already said above:
    An interface can only extend another interface.
    A class can extend another class.
    A class can implement zero or more interfaces.
    So, "implements" is only used for classes that implement interfaces. For the rest, "extends" is used.

  • What is the difference between Roaming & Extended

    What is the difference between Roaming & Extended on Voice Roaming Indicators?

    Extended usually means that you are on a network other than one owned by your carrier but with whom your carrier has an agreement so you are not charged extra. "Roaming" would mean you are on a network not owned by your carrier and with which they have no agreement. You may be charged an additional fee. Consult your carrier.
    Best of luck.

  • What is the difference between workbench request and customizing request

    hi gurus
    can anyone suggest me
    what is the difference between
    workbench request and
    customizing request
    abaper ll work on which request
    thank you
    regards
    kals.

    A quick  search in the forum would have taken you to this answer
    Workbench Requests
    When you change a Repository object of the ABAP Workbench, a query window appears in which you need to specify a Workbench request. You can only save the changes if you have assigned the object to a change request.
    Workbench requests and the tasks assigned to them are normally used to record changes to Repository objects and Customizing for all clients. However, you can also include client-specific Customizing.
    Whether the changes to Repository objects are transported depends on whether a transport route is defined from the current SAP System for the package of these objects. From the system settings, the system automatically determines whether the change requests are transportable and to which target system they should be transported.
    Customizing requests
    Customizing requests record client-specific Customizing settings made in a single client (the source client of the request).
    Automatic recording of configuration activities in the Customizing work for a client can be activated or deactivated for each client with Client Control. If automatic recording is active, a query window appears when you change Customizing settings, asking you to specify a Customizing request.
    Whether Customizing requests are transported or not, does not depend on the objects entered, as is the case with Workbench change requests. The Customizing requests in an SAP System (or in a client if you use Extended Transport Control) are either all transportable or all local, depending on the system setting. The system uses the standard transport layer to determine automatically whether the change requests are transportable and to which target system they should be transported. However, you can change this manually.

  • What is the difference between start() and run()

    Hi:
    what is the difference between start() and the run()???
    in my app, i have
    Console.debug( "starting thread to listen for clients" );
    _server = new Server( this );
    _server.start();
    _server extends Thread..
    why everytime i use server.start(); my app will terminate on it is own, even though in my servr.run() method, i have a while loop
    and if i call _server.run() explicitly in my code, that while loop will be in execution
    can someone let me know??
    thnx

    what is the difference between start() and the
    run()???start() is a method on Thread that tells it to start.
    run() is a method in the object that the thread executes.
    why everytime i use _server.start(); my app will
    terminate on it is own, Err.... I'm not convinced this is true. It'll throw an IllegalThreadStateException, if you try to restart an existing thread.
    If that's what you're saying.
    even though in my _servr.run()
    method, i have a while loopI don't see the connection. Are you saying that the while loop never terminates, and you don't see why the thread is terminating?
    and if i call _server.run() explicitly in my code,
    that while loop will be in executionIf you call server.run() explicitly, then run() will be executed in the same thread that you called it in.

  • What is the difference between Wine, Wineskin, Winery and Wine Bottler, and how do I get Wine to *ACTUALLY* work in Mountain Lion?

    Ok, so this is my first post here and I am admittedly terrible at forums. Someone might say, "This was addressed in the ___________ thread by __________! Go read it!" --- that may be so but I've spent enough hours trying to google this problem into submission to no avail based on what is apparently working for others, so I would like a chance to get specific answers to specific questions that aren't from Mar 2011, etc.
    So first of all, I'm confused by all the various Wine programs/apps/whatevers. I've seen Wine, Wineskin, Winery, Wine Bottler, and at this point I wouldn't be surprised if there are even more than that. What's the difference between all of these and how do they work with one another? What do I actually need to get windows programs working?
    All of my google searches have led me to people giving out fish, but no one giving out fishing lessons. I'm not a pro at mac and windows and all that, but I'm a fairly bright individual who gets VERY frustrated, very quickly, when I don't understand the why and how of something I'm attempting.
    I've also found "answers" where the person attempting to help starts off helpful enough, but degrades into the most archaic of techno-babble after about 5-6 sentences. On the other hand, I've watched tutorials on youtube where the poster decides to skip (apparently crucial) sections of the tutorial, and mutters such gems as: "... you might wanna have to run Wine first before you can do anything, cuz I think it has to configure it and set up a bunch of stuff" 
    O.o
    A happy medium between techno-babble and the most basic of explanations would be ideal for me, and I'd imagine for others as well.
    Here is a summarized history of my relationship with Wine:
    Diablo II - I downloaded this awesome thing which ended up being... uh... I guess Diablo II in a Wineskin "wrapper". I'm not sure, all I know is that it's a D2 icon, and if I go to 'show package contents', it's got C drive, Program Files, et cetera inside of it. I double click it, it launches D2, and it works like a dream. <3
    'Vanilla Install' - That's what I heard someone call it. It was the command/terminal style install using xquartz and xcode found at http://www.davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/. I followed every instruction to the letter, and got all the way to '$ sudo port install wine', at which point it started going smoothly, free from the possible error he described regarding the installation of xcode, and then just failed after I left the room to use the restroom and came back. Please don't ask me to repeat what the error was, because honestly, after reading more things on the interwebs, I'm confused as to why it's even necessary to go through all of that, so I'd rather not try that route again anyways, rendering the error message quite possibly irrelevant.
    Wine + Wine Bottler - So I decided to try to seek out an easier method, as I know that one must exist that doesn't involve command lines. I found a video tutorial at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0BBkISOcEA, and oh man would it be great if that method had actually worked. Again, I followed all instructions provided to procure my free fish, and at the point in the video where he declares that "xquarts or x11 will open" - it doesn't open. Nothing opens. I was trying to install Star Sonata, btw.
    So here I am, thoroughly worn out, frustrated at all the random places Wine is installed on my mac now, and just want someone to explain it all, from top down, without getting toooooooo technical on me. I know that might be asking a lot...

    ## I know that the poster has already found a solution, but the following is a possible answer for others that have similar issues.
    For Winebottler, just go to their website and download it. Run the program. Choose .wine as your prefix (best choice) or whatever suits you best. You'll need a functional X11. If you can't use the one that comes with your mac, download the latest one from the website.
    If your issue is one with Winebottler's Wine not running correctly due to X11, then you have a pretty ugly problem, although a simple upgrade is the best solution (Upgrade XQuartz.app).
    http://www.davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/#part-1
    The above website is the easiest way to get REAL wine on your computer. First of all, Wineskin WInery, etc. are NOT WINE. They are 3rd party apps that may use Wine or may have originally part of Wine, but they are no longer up to date with Wine. WineBottler is currently up to date with the stable releases of Wine (but not the maintenence releases).
    For the website tutorial and to run Wine on your mac without using a thrid party app, you will need to know a few things.
    First, you will need to know basic control of the command line. That means, sudo (you must know the administrator password to your computer), and the forms of cd (change directory).
    Second, you will need Xcode. Download 4.2 (stable) or whatever other versions you want, but beware: It is over 1 GB, and you will need time for it to work.
    Third, you will need to get MacPorts and configure it. The tutorial should have this data.
    When you download wine (use sudo port install wine-devel for the latest development release of wine), it will first download a lot of dependencies. This will take a while. After that, it will download wine itself.
    After obtaining wine, to run a program, open the terminal.app window.
    cd desktop/XYZ/ZYZ\ WRQ
    The above will first enter the desktop, then folder XYZ, then folder ZYZ WRQ. From here,
    wine th11e.exe
    Or whatever executable you are trying to open. (Using Subterranean Animism as my example).
    It should, in theory, run the program. Watch the terminal for errors. If there is an X11 problem, then it's not wine acting up. If the app crashes or has other issues, check the Wine Application Database to see if your app is compatible with wine.
    If you have any further questions or other things, feel free to reply; I may or may not get back to you, but there's a good chance that someone will come in eventually. Otherwise, the Wine Wiki should have some information.
