WiFi and LAN simultaneously

Hi,
I have a third party USB WiFi adapter, connected to a public(but paid) WiFi accesspoint here in the street. Works perfect.
Secondly, I have 2 printers (in another room)attached to a network in my house (LAN only). The G5 is also connected to that LAN. There is no internet connection available on the LAN, that's why I have the WiFi adapter.
Currently, when I need to print, I have to disable the WiFi ethernet adapter, enable the LAN ethernet adapter, print out my stuff, disable the LAN ethernet adapter and enable the WiFi ethernet adapter again.......
So, in other words, when the WiFi ethernet adapter is turned on, I cannot print.
Probably, when I print the G5 is looking for the printers on the WiFi accesspoint and not on the "local" LAN. That seems to be the issue.
How can I setup some routing mechanism or rules, so that I can have both ethernet adapters turned on and the print jobs finding the right (local) router?

You should not need to do anything. This should be automatic.
If it's not working then it's just a configuration setup. The ethernet adapter should be set with NO router address (it's only used for local traffic), so that's the first thing to check. Also important is the order of the interfaces in System Preferences. You should have your Wireless network listed first followed by the wired network (use the options in System Preferences -> Network to 'Set Service Order' and drag them into the right place).

  • DHCP on both Wifi and LAN ports?

    Everything works well; Wifi clients (MAC only), AppleTV, USB Hub with Printer and 3 External disks etc...
    I plug in my MacPro via a LAN Cable and it does not get a valid IP Address from the DHCP server.
    Tried setting a fixed IP with all the proper config, nothing gives.
    I am a tried and true IT professional with over 20 years, and can't figure this one out. Anyone else have this problem?

    That certainly should work. The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) supports both wired clients (via the LAN ports) and wireless clients. All clients appear on the same subnet.
    The MacPro has 2 Ethernet ports? Have you tried both of them? Check the Network preference pane to ensure that the one you are using is enabled.
    Otherwise... have you tried using one of the other LAN ports? Have you tried a different Ethernet cable to eliminate the possibility of a defective cable?

  • About AirPort Express 2012 - WAN and LAN simultaneously?

    If I connect the WAN port to my DSL modem, and the LAN port to my desktop via ethernet cables, would my desktop and a wireless device work simultaneously?

    Please review the previous answer.
    Yes means Yes  
    A wireless router will share an Internet connection simultaneously with both Ethernet devices and wireless devices.

  • Can I use both Wifi and a Lan connection at the same time?

    With me back in the dorms I have been limited to a slower connection than what I would like. Now we are able to use both Wifi and a Lan line so I was wondering to somewhat "double" my speed if there was any way to use both connections at the same time.
    Now I know that you can have both plugged in at the same time, I guess what I'm asking is, is there a way that I could set programs to use one or the other? Or some kind of virtual desktop that is set to use the other connection or anything that would allow both be used at the same time.
    Or am I just wishing for something that doesn't have any possible way to work?
    -nathan
    MacBook pro 2.16 C2D 2gb ram   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    You can use both at the same time, but not gor Internet access if that's what you're asking.
    Now there is a thing called Link Aggregation, which combines a number of interfaces for speed/redundancy, but it really only works locally, and then only with ALL special equipment in the route, and most likely OSX Server involved.
    Sorry.

  • IPhone Wifi and Bluetooth interference when used simultaneously

    I am presently using AirFoiI to stream audio from my PC to my iPhone. AirFoil uses the same protocols as AirPlay. AirFoil/AirPlay streams an Alac audio codec using a bandwith of 1,50 Mbs on average irrespective of the audio codec and bit rate of the source file.
    The audio stream received on my iPhone through WiFi is send over simultaneously to my Bluetooth speaker.
    When using AirFoil/AirPlay, I regularly hear distortions at the beginning of a track and also randomly when a track is playing. The distortions are a lot more when I move the iPhone around.  I am almost 100% sure that these sound distortions are because of Bluetooth interference on the iPhone itself when simultaneously receiving an audio stream from AirFoil/AirPlay and sending an audio stream over bluetooth to my speaker.
    I also have done some tests using "Net Meter" and "TCP-view" from Sysinternals on my Windows 7 PC.  On "Net Meter" I have never seen any WiFi drop outs or distortions regarding my home network.
    My bluetooth speaker supports the A2DP AAC audio codec. This was an important feature for me before I bought the device because the AAC audio codec provides normally a relatively good audio quality over Bluetooth. At the time it did not occur to me that there might be a possible Bluetooth interference coming from my iPhone itself. I presumed that the Bluetooth on the iPhone would use a 2,4 Ghz RF channel not in use by WiFi so that WiFi and Bluetooth used on the same device simultaneously could never distort each other. I was clearly wrong.  Put shortly, the problems I encounter are presumably solely caused by the firmware/software on my iPhone. I hope this will eventually be resolved with some future iOs 8 updates. There were indeed many people having Bluetooth issues since iOs 8.
    I know the best solution would be to wire my speaker optically with an AirPort Express or an Apple TV.  I have not yet decided between the two.
    Even when there exists a "wired" solution, I think an expensive device such as an iPhone should be able to make sure that there is never interference between WiFi and Bluetooth when used simultaneously on the SAME device/iPhone.  
    I hope that some specialists will give their views on my "nonprofessional" analysis and some more in-depth information.

    Now will this work:
    Airport extreme set to BOTH frequencies and my older wifi stuff like Iphone and printer will automatically connect via 2.4GHz and Macbook will connect to 5GHz so that it will not longe be disruppted by bluetooth?
    Unfortunately, no one can predict exactly what will happen in advance with wireless and interference issues. Your chances will improve, though. It might be a good idea to understand the store's return policy before you buy.
    What if the Macbook will not connect automatically to the 5Ghz network because the 2.4 stream may be slightly stronger. Is there a way to force macbook to connect to 5Ghz?
    Yes, use the option to assign a separate wireless network name to the 5 GHz band, and then "point" your MacBook to that network.  The other 2.4 GHz devices will connect to the 2.4 GHz band.

  • Can an airport receive via wifi and share via lan port  to a tv ?

    Is it possible for an airport express receive net via wifi and share it via lan port to a tv with lan card ?
    Thanks
    Jorge

    Yes, if the AirPort Express is an 802.11n model. This version of the Express support the configuration as a wireless Ethernet bridge. Apple calls this configuration a ProxySTA.

  • My wife and I have each one iPhone 4 each but only one iPad we share. ICloud does not seem to work for us?

    My wife and I have each and iPhone 4 and one iPad. We would like to have both our iCloud accounts on the iPad. For families we do not generally buy doubles of everything (apps, songs, movies tv shows, etc)  and that includes iPads. But right now we are sharing and iCloud account and that is causing a lot of problems with calendars, contacts, reminders, imessanger, etc. it would be cool ( and more like a computer ) if we could have our separate accounts and our iPad 2 could hold both our iCloud accounts simultaneously. So it holds our personal information without affecting each other phones. I think this would solve family problems with one iTunes ID, many iCloud IDs, many iPhones but one iPad, laptop, computer, apple tv. Thank you.

  • Second s5 update has made wifi and data run simutaniously, being charged for data only way to turn off Data is to go to settings. I had same issue with my other phone. Recieved two replacement phones the SIM card did not work on replacements took phone ba

    Wifi and Data running simultaneously. Data was being charged to my account even though I was on WIFI. No one can fix the issue. I have wasted 8 hours of my life and went and returned my phone and got a new one yet after the last update I now have WIFI and Data showing that they are running simultaneously.  I have looked at numerous message boards and turned off Caller ID don't have Volte on my phone but do get an error with Visual Voice Mail. I don't want any of these services, you are not helping your customers Verizon or Samsung with forcing us to update. I tried not to update my NEW phone that I had to get from Costco because of this exact same stupid issue happen on my last one. But every time I said NO to update the next time I did anything on the phone the UPDATE would pop up again. I would say NO it would come back. I was doing a text and it came up and I hit update not wanting to and then my phone began updating on a low battery. I had to rush to put on charge and then my WIFI and Data came back on together with arrows on all going up and down. I HATE the lack of support I get from SAMSUNG and VERIZON... Verizon washes their hands and say these are not Updates even though these are the features we have on all our phones like Visual Voice Mail and Volte...

    I did look at the Settings/Cellular to check the applications.  This is one of the steps I did with the person from Verizon who was an "iPhone Specialist".  And he didn't see anything unusual.  And I can honestly tell you they have very minimal number of apps on their phones.
    When I went to the Apple Store the first time with this problem, they had me update the phones iOS systems to see if this would correct the problem.  They were each running older versions but different versions.  One son had one update to do and the other had a couple of updates needed.  So, the problem started before they were updated and they weren't even on the same update.  And nothing changed after we did the updates.
    I didn't reboot the router and modem, because I'm not having any other issues with my phone, my husband's phone, our iPad, xbox, PS3, or laptops.  Would the wifi only affect their phones?

  • MIxed Wifi and Powerline Network with Airport Express

    Can anyone help set up a network using both wifi and ethernet?
    I currently have a BT Home Hub ADSL router providing wifi throughout my house and 2 airport expresses to stream music from my iMac.  The problem is that the sound occasionally drops out.  I've tried most of the common fixes from the discussions but nothing seems to work reliably.  My next step is to try and use powerline adapters.  If possible I want to use the following configs simultaneously:
    1.     BT Home Hub (Broadband) to wifi throughout the house inc my iMac.
    2.     IMac to powerline adapter to powerline adapter(s) to airport express(es). I have 3 200Mbps adapters.
    Thanks in advance.

    Each AirPort Express that is connected to the network using an Ethernet connection should be configured as follows:
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click the Base Station tab located just below the row of icons
    Assign a separate name to each AirPort Express
    Assign a device password for each device
    Adjust Time Zone settings
    Remove the check mark (if present) next to "allow setup over WAN"
    Click the Wireless tab
    Wireless Mode = Create a wireless network
    Wireless Network Name = Same name as your BT wireless network
    No check mark needed next to "Allow this network to be extended"
    Radio Mode = 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible) a good choice
    Channel = Automatic
    Wireless Security = Exact same security setting as the BT wireless network. If settings are not exact, the network will not function correctly.
    Wireless Password = Same password as the BT wireless network
    Confirm Password
    Click the Internet icon
    Connect Using = Ethernet
    Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
    Update to save settings and allow the AirPort Express to restart
    When all Express devices have been configured, power down the entire network....all devices...order is not important
    Start the modem/hub first and let it run a few moments by itself
    Start each AirPort Express one at a time about a minute apart
    Sart each network device the same way until everything is powered back up

  • Wifi and PC on 2 different subnets ?

    Can anyone confirm if BlackBerry Link can use:
    * MULTICAST to locate devices ?  This will allow PC software to find a device across routers that participate in multicast.  I presume the default mechanism the BB10 device uses is BROADCAST which does not cross any router.  But I can understand Enterprise customers not caring which LAN they are on (as they might have multiple WiFi LANs and multiple Ethernet LANs on a single site) and just wanting device and PC to be paired and working.
    * Allow explict IP address associations to be setup.  The Wifi IP my Z30 gets is locked to MAC, so can BlackBerry Link keep trying to poll/connect to it, multilple IPs should be allowed to be setup this way, with priority order, where higher priority IPs continue to be polled even if device is connected to lower priority.  This will allow me to configure Wifi IP as top priority, and VPN IP (which can also be locked/static IP) as 2nd priority.  The VPN static IP allows for an IP to work from anywhere in the world (from a foreign Wifi or mobile network).
    * Can non-direct communication be disabled (both on PC software and on device) for example to disable routing of all data via an intermediate node.   This indirect connectivity should also be in the priority list, maybe as the last-resort.
    My Wifi has a stateful firewall back to the LAN.  That is the LAN can access Wifi freely but the Wifi can not access the LAN freely.  So what protocol/ports need to be open ?  Or does the PC side always initiate the connectivity ?  With the Wifi and the LAN can access the Internet freely.
    What is the system tray, BlackBerry Device Manager for ?  what is the "Bypass Router Configuration" about ?  and port 4101 ?  is this a BES/Enterprise feature ?
    I am thinking in here I should be able to configure MULTICAST enable and also setup various static IPs my PC can connect to where my Z30 device might be, including IPv6 IPs.

    I cannot answer all your concerns but I can answer some.
    Here is some limited info on port 4101......http://docs.blackberry.com/en/admin/deliverables/25735/BB_Router_ports_connection_types_566661_11.js...
    The System Tray BlackBerry Device Manager is used to see and save to PC the data on your phone when your phone is connected via USB.

  • Hi iv got a sky router downstairs and a time capsule up stairs how do i set it up so that it just extends the sky wifi and then the hard drive in the time capsule is accessible from all over the house thanks

    hi iv got a sky router downstairs and a time capsule up stairs how do i set it up so that it just extends the sky wifi and then the hard drive in the time capsule is accessible from all over the house thanks

    Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <--> ports on the back of the Sky router to the WAN (circle of dots icon) port on the back of the Time Capsule. This connection must be maintained at all times.
    Then, using the setup "wizard" on your iMac illustrated below, configure the Time Capsule to create a wireless network that uses the exact same wireless network name and password that the Sky router is using.
    You can get the setup wizard going in several different ways, but the simplest might be to click the WiFi icon at the top of the Mac's screen and then click on Time Capsule under the heading of New AirPort Base Station.
    The wizard will open up and analyze the network, then the suggest the correct setup. The example below shows an older AirPort Express that is about to be setup in the same way. You will see a Time Capsule icon on your screen when you run the setup wizard.
