Wirelessly adding a new device: Router versus Access Point versus Bridge

My home network consists of a Linksys WRT54GS Wireless router with a couple hardwired PC and a wireless laptop. I want to wirelessly connect my TiVo into this network to download saved video onto the hardwired PCs, and to give my TiVo access to the internet (it currently uses a phone line). It looks to me like the choices to include the TiVo into my home network are to connect it (wired) to:
(1) a Wireless Access Point (WAP54G),
(2) a Wireless Bridge (WET54G), or
(3) another Linksys Router (WRT54G) configured as WAP (router mode rather than gateway).
Are all three options above valid options? If so I would like to understand what the differences between these choices are, and under what circumstances would one be better than the other.
As part of this, is there a reason the Linksys Routers are much cheaper than the WAP or Bridge hardware. This is counter-intuitive since the Router appears to be the more complex hardware with multiple connectors, more memory, etc.
Thanks.

Well i would suggest you to get an Access point WAP54G as it works wirelessly & you will be able to use many pc's using it without a router.With WET54G you need to connect using the hardwired cable & you need to connect it using the cables to the pc's & configure it.With router you need another router & you can configure it accordingly in a wireless mode to make it act as an access point.

    I registered my new iPhone 5s to my usual Apple ID, however it isn't showing in my devices when I log in. I tried to register it by adding a new device, but it tells me it's already registered to a different Apple ID. I'm really not sure how to fix this. I only have the one Apple ID and the phone is brand new, purchased directly from Apple.
    When I check on the phone itself (iCloud and App Store settings) the Apple ID is correct. I'm not sure where else to check.
    Whilst setting up the phone, it prompted me to register, which I did. Then when connecting to my laptop through iTunes it prompted me again so I registered again. I even got a confirmation email to the email address associated with my Apple ID that the registration was successful.
    How can I add my iPhone 5s to the list of devices on the correct Apple ID?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

  • Aironet 1600 - A response was not received from the router or access point

    Hi,
    I'm trying to set up a wireless network with multiple SSID's. The new network only has CISCO products (router, switches). For the moment I'm trying to connect to 1 SSID (Windekind.Gast). the SSID is visible but when connecting devices have te folowing error message in the log:
    Connection status summary
    Connection started at: 2015-02-17 09:55:49-951
    Profile match: Success
    Pre-Association: Success
    Association: Fail
    Security and Authentication: Not started
    Root cause:
    Wireless association to "Windekind.Gast" failed
    A response was not received from the router or access point.
    Detailed root cause:
    Wireless association to this network failed. Windows did not receive any response from the wireless router or accesspoint.
    The signal is perfect (I'm only a few feet away from the AP).
    To make sure there is no dhcp problem I tested the swich port in access mode for vlan 30 which supplied an IP correctly. I'm really not seeing the problem and searched the web for days now! Any help would be very much appreciated! 
    Below the config of the access point (done via de web interface).

    Hi Rasika
    thanks for the reply! 10.0.0.81 belongs to vlan 1. I changed the config as suggested but no luck.. (same problems are logged in the event viewer). the ap is connected to a switchport in trunk mode and vlan 1 is the native lan (untagged). the port also is joined to vlan 30 (and others).
    Below the new config. Hope you can see an error..

  • Router and access point

    Likely either or. Of course if you "need" wireless you have to have an AP somewhere and many of them are capable of serving up DHCP and doing many functions of a small broadband thingy (I won't call these things "routers", "thingy" seems more appropriate)  :)

    which one i should use a router or access point to create a home network lab where i can play around with the DNS and DHCP configuration without changing the ISP router setting??

  • Extremes (Access Point Mode, Bridged) Constantly Going Offline

    I have multiple Extremes (all standalone access point mode, bridged with static IPs) randomly going offline. Each Extreme is connected directly to a main switch. Status lights always remain green however I cannot ping the devices, they do not show up in the Airport Utility and they cease to be accessible/visible via WIFI. Plus, when this happens, I often can STILL connect to devices (e.g. printers) that are plugged into the LAN ports of the "offline" Extremes.
    They appear to drop randomly, i.e. not under any particularly heavy load or anything. When I feel them physically, they don't feel unusually warm or anything.
    Thoughts? I have already done a hard reset and reconfig on one of the problem devices.

    Hello Julesomar,
    It sounds like your Airport Extreme is having intermitent connectivity issues. You have already done what I would have started with by resetting the device. I recommend next troubleshooting for sources of interference with the following article:
    Wi-Fi and Bluetooth: Potential sources of wireless interference

  • Adding a new device emulator

    hi,
    currently i am using the wireless toolkit from sun to run my progs.. but sideby side i have also started using borland jbuilder enterprise 2005..
    now my question is actually regarding jbuilder.. in order to add a new device to wtk all i did was place the device folder in the wtklib/devices folder and that particular device emulator would be added to the devices installed list in wtk.. but i am trying hard to install a new device precisely the series 60 1.2. emulator to jbuilder but i am unable to do so.. any idea how this is done.. i have tried putting the device folder in the Borland\JBuilder2005\j2mewtk2.2\wtklib\devices folder.. but this does not detect the newly added device..
    please any help would be appreciated

    If you are unable to make the changed on your router using the Network magic software, then login to the setup page of your Router manually and secure your wireless network.

  • What is the expected behavior in a zone after adding a new static route in Solaris 10....

    Hi Folks,
    I have a few Solaris 10 production machines here at work and had a strange thing happen. I added a new route to these machines using the "add route <destination > <gateway>" command and my web applications running in the zones on these machines froze up. The applications that froze had no reason to do this as they have never talked to the machine in this new route. Here is the old route table via netstat -rn:

    My question is why did my application die and need to be restarted after this one simple route was added? What is the expected behavior in a zone after adding a new route to the root zone?
    Thanks,

    Greg- Dreamweaver CS4/Live View integration with BrowserLab allows you to send interactive states of a local site/design directly to BrowserLab (dynamic data, rollover/mouse interaction states, widget states, et al), and from behind firewalls no less- definitely a scenario we covered.  You can get the extensions (which require Dreamweaver CS4, of course) up on the Labs site: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/browserlab/

  • Problems with adding a new device in Common Services

    Hello,
    I have the following problem: I need to add a new device in my Cisco Works. What I do is I go to Common Services >> Device and Credentials >> Device Management. There I click "Add" and I add the new device with the corresponding credential set.
    Then, in the RME >> Job Management >> RME Jobs I can see a new job created (
    CDA:CDA job due to Device Add. ) because of this addition but this jobs stays always in status Running and it never finishes. Most probablt because of that this newly added device never actually appears in the RME so I cannot operate with it - deploy software, save configs, etc.
    I did this test a few times and all the times this is the result.
    I tought that it might be a firewall issue blocking some protocol needed for the communication, as SNMP, telnet or something else. But if I go to Decice Center and I select this newly added device (which there appears with the question mark icon, not with the right device icon) I can see all the information for it, like Detailed Device Report, etc.
    Then I noticed that in the RME Jobs section I have some more jobs that are like running forever - "
    CredEditCDA: CDA job due to Credential Edit".
    See the attached image for details:
    So, my question is what might be the reason for this behaviour and what can I do in order to unblock these jobs and add my device normally?
    What I use is:
    Windows Server
    LMS 3.2
    RME 4.3.0
    Thank you in advance,
    Vesko

    OK,
    first of all, have you intergrated lms with ACS ? - check in common services - server - security - single-server mgmt - local user policy setup.
    If this is in ACS, check if the newly added devices is in ACS... Check if this devices is reflecting in common services itself...make sure that the device type is selected properly ???
    Next do a snmp test in device center for this machine..how would you do this --" in device center, select the device, do a management to station and select the snmpv2 and ok it" you will get if snmp is failing or not...As you mentioned it is coming in question mark..this is because the correct device type is not selected in common services.
    Do an update inventory & archive and check the status..

  • My router and access point reboots when trying to stream content from iOS devices or mac to my apple tv.

    the zycel N series access point and cisco router reboots when i try to stream or mirror onto apple tv using air play. What can be the cause of the problem?

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Any change?
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
    Stop plug-ins to save power
    Any change?
    Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
    Log out and log back in. Any change?
    Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
    Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
    If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
    If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
    Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
    Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
    If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
    If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • Adding a new device to my current itunes account

    Hi,
    I am very frustrated my husband bought me a iPad 2 yesterday.  I already have a itunes account with my current Ipod how do I synch itunes with my new device. 
    I have connected it to the computer opened Itunes but nothing no device comes up at all.
    What am I missing I have wasted 2 hours already and no further advanced. I thought it would have picked it up and walked me through the process but so far nothing.  I can't even manually go to synch as it isn't showing to choose.
    I tried downloading a newer version of iPod software thinking this was the issue but it froze and I had to pull the plug.  I have heaps of memory in my computer so that isn't the reason. 
    HELP

    If you haven't even activated the device yet - I'm not sure what to do - but I think you will have to do some experimenting.
    iTunes should recognize the device - under normal circumstances - and then walk you through the process like you said.
    Make sure that you are running the latest veriosn of iTunes - 10.5.3 is the most current now. You said you downloaded the latest version of iPod software but that doesn't make sense if the iPad is not being recognized - unless you just mean that you downloaded it but it has not installed yet.
    So .... Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Quit iTunes if it is running, and reboot your PC. Turn off your firewall and disable any security software that you may be running.
    Then connect the iPad to the PC again and see if it will recognize it and start the activation process.

  • Adding a new device to cloud

    I have Upgraded iPhones and transferred my SIM card card, however I can't get any of my apps, music etc on the new device? I have a cloud account but I am not sure how to add the new device?

    You should be able to download your apps (if they are still in the store) via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your phone. Whether you can also redownload music, via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app, will depend upon what country that you are in - if you aren't in a country where music can be redownloaded (and for any apps that are no longer in your country's store) then you will need to sync it from your computer's iTunes

  • Find my iphone - Adding a new device because old one stolen.

    Hi -
    I've recently had my iphone 5 stolen which was registered to my iclouds, as well as the 'Find my iphone' app.
    Since being given a new iphone from an insurance claim, I have tried to register this iphone with the 'find my iphone' app but have had a little trouble doing so, as my old iphone is still registered with my iclouds and thus still associated with the app.
    Obviously I don't know how to remove the app from my old device as it's no longer in my possession, so if anyone can give me a step by step to registering my new iphone with the app that would be fantastic!
    Thanks for your help guys!
    Steve

    Try removing the old device in iCloud.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2702   Then add your new device.

  • How to add a second router as access point and wifi signal extender

    Previously I had 2 linksys routers and was able to configure them as one in separate areas of my house.  I think it is called cascading.  The 2nd router acted as an ethernet switch with 4 extra ports and it provided a wifi signal to areas of my house that previously had a weak signal when I used only one router.
    I have since switched to an Airport Extreme as my main router.  I can't seem to get the same configuration with the linksys router, it is Model E1000 and has an "N" signal.  The Linksys E1000 I think is the newer model of the old WRT54G Linksys.  I can't get it configured to work.  I have searched high and low on the internet and can't find anything simple enough for a novice to understand.  I did read something that I may have to assign a "DHCP Reservation" on the Apple Extreme.  I couldn't figure that out.
    Can somebody please offer some guidance on how to get this to work?
    Thanks

    You have two routers producing two networks with the same name, so they will show up as two networks on any type of scan by a wireless utility. This is normal.
    If you had used two Linksys devices, they would probably show up as one network, not two. Linksys has a feature that allows this to occur, but this is not true of Apple devices.
    As long as the wireless network name, wireless security and password match up between the two routers, the two networks will behave as if they were one. As computers change location, they will automatically connect to the wireless access point with the strongest signal.

  • Do I need a router or access point / bridge?

    Hi.  We have a MS small bus server with a software firewall.  It does dhcp and routes traffic so we don't need the router part of the router.
    Wireless  N access is needed.  Will a DAP 1522 (Wireless N access point / switch) offer the same wireless performance as a Linksys wireless N router?
    I just bought the DAP access point and am getting 100-130 mb/s with a strong signal.  Would the router work better with its giant antennae?
    Nick

    DAP 1522 is a good acess point. It  lets you connect up to 4 Ethernet-enabled devices such as set top boxes, game consoles, or computers to an existing Wi-Fi network for on-demand broadcast, online gaming, or media streaming throughout the home.
    With dual-band wireless capabilities, the DAP-1522 is ideal for wireless HD video streaming and gaming applications because entertainment content can be sent over the less crowded 5GHz band.
    The DAP-1522 can also be used to create a new 802.11n wireless network using its Access Point feature. Simply connect it to an existing wired or wireless router, and you'll enjoy greater range and data speeds in seconds.
