Can I create a network for printing & music alone ?

I don't have DSL or any type of broadband - still using dial up.
If I buy an Airport Express can I configure it to wirelessly print and stream music or do I need a wireless network in the background to make this work ?

Can I create a network for printing & music alone ?
Yes
If you also want internet access at the same time you will need to tweak things a bit.

Can't create Local Network Users in Yosemite

I can't create Local Network Users (or change passwords)
Logged on to /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 as directory administrator
When I try to create a new user (press the [+], fill in the form), it brings up the message:
existing connection is not authenticated or secure: password change denied
I suspect this is emblematic of other issues. I can authenticate for Mail and SMB, but not for AFP or Xcode

So I had this problem last night as well when I upgraded my 10.9.5 OD master to 10.10.
Two obvious problems after that upgrade:
1) Could not add a new Local Network User
2) Existing users could not connect via AFP (but could via SMB)
Through a series of trial and error (and with two Apple Support people...), we found that the following actions seemed to help fix some (but not all) of the problems.:
Problem #2 seemed to initially be fixed by archiving the OD Master, destroying the OD Master and then reimporting from the archive. I archived from the upgraded 10.10, but should probably have tried restoring my 10.9.5 archive (which may end up being why I still have some problems...)
Problem #1 seemed to be solved when I used WorkGroup Manager to reset the password on the Directory Administrator account I use (I also blew out all references to that account from the Keychain, so everything reprompted me to add that password
However, we think the root cause of this might have been that in /var/db/openldap/migration, the following "dot" files were still present after the upgrade
fs:migration root# ls -la
total 6308816
drwx------ 10 root wheel         340 Oct 30 18:59 .

Those 4 .dot files were *not* present in that directory on the two other test OD Master servers that I upgraded without issue.
So we removed them and after having done all the above as well -- I can now add users to the server.   The OD engineer I talked to thought that the presence of those .dot files may have been triggering something to rerun every time PasswordService launched.
When all was said and done, I was then able to "kinit <mydiradminaccount>" correctly and get a "klist" without issue.
ALL THAT SAID: As of this morning, *some* (most? I don't know yet) of my existing OD user accounts are able to successfully log into the server.   A couple of them (so far) are reporting that their account is "disabled" (which is different from the "shaking"/can't-log-in behavior) -- but they can still log in via SMB -- so I think there was still a problem migrating OD accounts in the upgrade process.
AND -- I noticed that -- in Server 4.0 -- "change password" is greyed out, so I have to use WorkGroup Manager to change server account passwords.

Windows can't create a network map/appearance of B...

Hi
I have had BT infinity for somewhat over a month now without any problems, until yesterday. That I am aware of two things have changed but in what order they changed I do not know.
'Firstly' I connected a brand new but several years old i.e. unused, LG 1T network drive and tried to get through the software installation process without success (can't create acceptable login details ). However I could see etc. the drive if I typed its network address into a browser's address window. BUT at that point the Windows network map started breaking. That was yesterday and I have, for the moment, removed the drive and deleted its info from the Homehub 5b.
Today I noticed that two new wireless networks have appeared, BTWifi-X and BTWifi-with-Fon. These appear and disappear as and when my homehub is switched on and off and, given what I have read, I assume these are the hotspot networks I am providing.
If I have my laptop connected to the homehub via LAN, Windows can create a network map providing no other computer is connected via WAN. Conversely when any computer is simultaneously connected to the homehub via WAN Windows loses the ability to create a network map, this includes the situation where one computer is connected via WAN and LAN. I often use my employer's WAN when at work and frequently forget to switch the WAN off, meaning that when I come home the laptop is initially often connected via WAN and LAN. That I am aware of, Windows has not previously had a problem creating a network map when this has happened.
There does not seem to be a problem if my phone (android) is connected to the homehub via WAN or if I have two computers connected to the homehub via only WAN nor if two computers are connected to the home hub via only LAN
One other thing I have also noticed is that the network map, when created, seems to contain, at times, a switch, a hub, Homehub5 and BThub5**** as if there a multitude of connectors.
I would like to get back the ability for windows to create network maps whatever connections are made.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

You seem to be using WAN to mean a Wireless connection when it means something else. Is this correct.
Your HH 5 B should provide a better network map than windows. Do you know how to log into your Home Hub Manager to get this and other information ?
Have you set up your HH 5 B as recommended in this forum ?

5800XM firmware V40 bug - can't create custom prof...

I had V30 of firmware and while i have it i created a custom profile named "Home" with vibrations off and ajusting some another settings, so i can activate it when i'm home.
And still having it i updated my phone to firmware v40 and was no problem that profile worked with v40 also, but after few days i had to master reset my phone and then that profile was gone.
And today i tried to creat a new profile and i can't create a new, in profile settings "Create New" menu is there but when i click it, nothing happens.
I think this is a faulty bug of v40 firmware and if you guys know how to fix it or if any updates, please share!!!
Thank you!

Can I create a network object from CIDR format or do I need to use IP - netmask?

Have a cisco ASA running ASA V 8.3
Wondering what the correct syntax is or even if it is possible to create a network object from a list of IP's in CIDR format?
Typically just do this:
Create network-object
object-group network name
network-object 1.2.3.0 255.255.255.0
Would like to do this:
network-object 1.2.3.0/24
thanks!

Hi,
As far as I know the ASA does not support entering a network/subnet mask in such format in any of its configurations.

Airport has stopped working -- Now Can't Create a Network

We're using a wireless router (not an Apple AirPort router) to connect to the internet. We've had connections before, but now this has simply stopped working.
In the past, I've solved this problem by just creating a new network and connecting to that. That seemed to get the connection back.
Now, I create a network in Preferences > Network > Airport, but it doesn't show up in Internet Connect > Airport, or under the Airport in the menu bar.
When I try to connect to it using "Other" I get the message "There was an error connecting to the network XXXXX".
When I click on "Create Network" in Internet connect, it only gives me an option to create a computer-to-computer network.
Ethernet connection works fine. This is on a PB 12" / 10.4.11
Any suggestions most welcome.

Reset the printer back to Factory Defaults and check the wireless radio again. It needs to be enabled.

Can I create a network where the Time Capsule gets its internet connection from my iMac?

Hi,
I've recently bought a Time Capsulebut I'm having some problems with it on my university network. It is an Eduroam network, so each computer has to authenticate before it can get an Internet connection – I can't use the Time Capsule normally as it is unable to authenticate to the network. However, I'd like to be able to create a smaller network in my room (with my computer and iDevices on so that I can use Remote and stuff, as well as to potentially get my Xbox and Kindle,which can't connect either, online).
Last time I did this, I had my iMac create an internet connection which it shared with everything else. (This was before I had the Time Capsule.) One way of solving it seems like it might be to share the Wifi internet connection with the Time Capsule through the ethernet, and then the Time Capsule can share the interent to everything else. Would this be possible? Or can you think of any other way that this could be done?
In other terms, I have an iMac, a Time Capsule, an iPhone and iPad, a Kindle and an Xbox. Only the iMac can connect to the internet and I'd like them all to be able to, as well as being on the same network. Is this possible?
Thanks!

DropBox is another possibility for sharing files and it is free for the first 2GB of storage.

Can I create a network using a DSL Gateway with iPad

My brother and I purchased an iPad for our mum. She can see next doors Netgear WiFi but unfortunately they do not know the the security number to give mum access.
So we were wondering if there is a way of creating a new network using an old wireless router we have that is spare?
Mum doesn't have a PC so we cannot set one up that way. Is there anyway that the router could be set up using the iPad itself?
Presumably you have to have something hardwired to the router to make the settings?
Basically can I configure/troubleshoot the modem/router using just the iPad? I know some configurations are accessed through just a web browser, and I wasn't sure if the iPad Safari would support that.
And what if somebody was setting up a modem from scratch?
Would they be able to do everything from the iPad?

As I mentioned before, you'd have to consult the manual for your WiFi router to see if it can be configured without a wired connection initially. You haven't said what router it is so it's impossible to advise further.
It would be easier to set it up initially on a laptop though, and once setup, you should be able to use the iPad to access the web interface to change settings. I often access the web interface of my D-Link router to change settings and even reboot the router when necessary.
The iPad is designed not to be used as a standalone device, but to be used in conjunction with a computer. Without a computer, your Mum will not be able to sync it, back it up, install updates, transfer files, restore it or fix problems that may occur.

[SOLVED] atheros pcmcia wifi card can't create ath0 interface

Hi i solved it myself, but propably someone else can have the same problem.
I was unable to set my wireless network because no ath0 interface was created when
ifconfig wlan0 up
command executed. Just wmaster0 created and any try to connect via wpa_supplicant destroyed the wmaster0 interface.
Solution is very simple
from your rc.conf file add ! to ath5k module. Here is my:
MODULES=(.... !ath5k ath_hal ath_pci wlan ......)
or remove it at all. Probably some bug, because ath5k are still in heavy development.
Reboot.
then type commands:
iwconfig
to see what interface you have, probably wifi0 or wlan0. It is the last one.
ifconfig wlan0 up
wpa_supplicant -Dmadwifi -iath0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf &
dhcpcd
1. interface up, ath0 will appear
2. connect via wpa protocol. You must first edit wpa_supplicant.conf file to your network
3. obtain ip and enjoy

I've tried setting the interface up/down and it doesn't help. I don't think there's a driver conflict (but it's a bit hard to tell as there seems to be a few different modules that work together).
So you tried to set it DOWN and then
netctl restart your-profile

BUG: Can't create BC4J Application Module Configurations

Hello,
I'm using JDev 9.0.3.1 with Win2K and WinXP. There seems to be a bug in the BC4J Application Module Configuration Manager:
It seems to be impossible to create a new BC4J Application Module Configuration with the Configuration Manager of a BC4J Application Module. I can copy an existing AM configuration, but I can not rename it. Clicking on the OK Button in the Configuration Manager simply does nothing.
A work around seems to be to open bc4j.xcfg in any text editor, copy an AppModuleConfig element, save xcfg, in JDev remove the project form the workspace, readd it to the workspace (some caching issue of jdev?). Then the new AM config is there and can be modified.
In JDev 9.0.3 the Config Manager seems to work fine.
Regards
Stefan

Fw Pen Tool Bugged - Can't Create Points w/ a click

So I don't use Fireworks much, but am trying to start. Am I wrong in thinking that just CLICKING somewhere on the canvas with the Pen Tool should add a point? Because it's not happening for me. The only way it adds a point is if I click and drag - which always creates a curve with handles. In Photoshop and Illustrator just clicking on the canvas creates a point that you can continue. What could be the problem?
I've tried restarting my Mac, trashing Fireworks' preferences, fiddling with the mouse/touchpad click settings, ... nothing seems to work. And I know it can't be the Mac itself because this function works in AI/PS. Do I have something accidentally enabled that doesn't allow you to create a bloody point? I can't even believe I have to post on here for such a simple task.
Any help would be appreciated...

Re-installing Fireworks seems to have done the trick.
Just posting this solution for the rare few that may ever have this problem... I have no idea what was wrong, though. I actually couldn't click ANYTHING - the zoom tool didn't work either unless I clicked and dragged.
Scratch all that, re-installing had no effect whatsoever.
The problem is with a program I have running, SweetFM that plays music from Last.fm. There seems to be some sort of conflict between it and Fireworks! So yeah... don't run SweetFM while using Fireworks, I guess.
