WRE54G that thinks it's a bridge

This is weird.
I have 3 WRE54G's around the house (it's a big house). One each version 1,2 and 3.
The one that has been giving me trouble is the version 3. It was really struggling with connectivity, so based on fixing a similar problem on the version 1 I have (which has been flawlessly been repeating for a couple of years now) I downloaded the latest firmware version 3.04.01
Right after I upgraded the software, the activity light stayed on solid blue. I could log into it to change the IP settings   and encryption no problem, and in wireless mode, it told me it was connected. ~however~ even though I could connect 'things' to it, it wouldn't communicate back to the router, or waps I have. ~kinda like a black hole~
So, just for kicks before I pitched this thing in the trash, I connected a Netgear MP101 (mp3 streamer) via an ethernet cable directly to the WRE54G and lo and behold, it's streaming like it was a wireless bridge!
I tried a couple of times to reflash it to get it back to repeater mode, but no go. It wants to be a bridge.. so.. be a bridge.

Things which you can try is, Connect the WRE to your computer and assign a Static IP to your Computer i.e : 192.168.1.20, Subnet : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.240.....
Once you connect the WRE to your computer, then on your computer click on Start - RUN - CMD and click OK.... Now in the Command Prompt window type "ping 192.168.1.240" and hit enter and check if you are getting any replies, If yes then you can try to access the setup page of the WRE....
If no, then you need to press and hold the reset button the wre for 60sec and then unplug the power and after 30sec re-plug it back.. and  again in the command prompt window type the same command and check if you are getting any replies....

    Hi. I am trying to use Bridge to make web galleries. There used to be something on PS for that but now I cant find it in PS so I was advised to use Bridge.  However, there is something called Output Module (AOM) that is missing from my Bridge.  I downloaded this.  The instructions say :Copy the Adobe Output Module folder (not the AOM_Package_[OS] folder) into the Bridge CC Extensions folder in the appropriate location: 
    Windows: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Bridge CC Extensions
    Mac OS: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Bridge CC Extensions.  However there is noplace on my Macbook Air running Yosemetie that has this /Library/Applications SUpport/Bridge CC Extensions. Can anyone advise?

    That file could be set as a Launch Agent or Daemon in your ~/Library or /Library, You could try to look for it or Safeboot your computer and then empty the trash. Safebooting disables Launch Agents/Daemon and Third Party Kernal extensions. Here's the article to Safeboot OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support

  • My Time Capsule is giving me a warning that  double NAT situation is occurring and recommends that I set it to bridge mode What is all this about please can it be explained in layman's terms and not martian thank you.

    My Time Capsule is giving me a warning that  double NAT situation is occurring and recommends that I set it to bridge mode What is all this about please can it be explained in layman's terms and not martian thank you.

    You have two devices....the Netgear and Time Capsule both configured to act as routers on the network. You only want one device providing this service.
    I suggest that you configure the Time Capsule in Bridge Mode as suggested to eliminate the Double NAT error. Unfortunately, the Guest Network cannot be enabled in this setting.
    No other adjustments are needed and everything else will operate normally...and the Time Capsule will still be providing your wireless network signal.
    Once the Time Capsule is configured in Bridge Mode, it would be an excellent idea to perform a complete power cycle on the network to allow things to reset properly.
    Just power off all devices on the network in any order that you want
    Wait a minute
    Start the Netgear device first, and let it run a minute by itself
    Start the Time Capsule next the same way
    Continue starting devices one at a time the same way until everything is powered backup
    The other option you have is to "ignore" the error and the light will turn green. The Double NAT error may...or may not cause some issues for you down the line. The next time that you update the Mac operating system, or update the firmware in the Time Capsule, it may likely change the Time Capsule to Bridge Mode automatically.
    If your Guest Network "disappears", you will know why this happened, and you will have to manually configure the Time Capsule again in Router Mode to provide DHCP and NAT services.
    Double NAT can also cause a slow down of web page loading. You may...or may not....notice this.

  • How to unmount a disk that thinks it's in use?

    Disk Utility will not Erase a backup hard drive disk b/c "Couldn't Unmount Disk." I've been trying to Erase a backup hard drive b/c it mistakenly thinks it's full, and in another discussion I was told to run Erase in Disk Utility.  No space on backup hard drive?
    However, each time I try to eject disk, which is what I assume unmount means, I get error message, "The volume can’t be ejected because it’s currently in use." I get this whether I try to eject in Finder or Disk Utility. However, the disk is not in use. It has only a few files, none of which are open. No aps.
    Is this a way to force an unmount, similar to a forced quit?
    I have a guess as what iMac might think in still "in use: the few files on the backup disk now have alias listed in burn folder. I had earlier thought I'd save those files by burning to a CD disk. Turned out my CD disk wasn't big enough. So, I rejected the idea. Ejected disk, but burn folder remained, and no matter how I try, I can't delete or trash it. I can't remove the 5 folders on it, individually or all together. The burn folder is one of the most stubborn things I've ever come across. Could this be why I can't unmount disk and thus can't erase the disk?
    Any other way to unmount or to Erase the disk?
    Thanks

    Hint:
    when you delete files on an external disk, they will stay in the local .trash bin on that disk, and not free up the space on the disk. You have to empty the trash bin on your mac (with the external disk still connected) to free up this hidden trash bin on the external disk.

  • How can I create a one image per page caption sheet that includes the description in Bridge?

    I am trying to find a way to create a one-image-per-page caption sheet for my workflow. I currently place each image into Word and copy the description onto the document, then repeat for each image. I am hoping that there is a way to automate this process using Bridge. I know that it can be done using Lightroom, however, that is not currently an option for me. Is this something that can be done or am I bound, like Sisyphus to Microsoft Word? I have a very limited grasp of scripting, but I feel like this is possible.
    Thanks for any help.

    To create a NetBoot image, you could just put the cluster node in target mode and attach it to your PowerBook. Then use SIU to create the NetBoot image.
    If you're trying to create a backup image of the disk, use hdiutil, or put in in target mode and create the image with Disk Utility.

  • How can I edit a dng in lightroom that can be viewed in bridge?

    I imported my files as DNG and edited some in LR 5 (color, cropping). I thought that I was editing the data in the DNG file; but when I opened the file in Bridge none of my edits were visible. How can I make edits in one program that can be seen by the other?

    You need to be aware.
    a. Bridge/ACR in Photoshop read and write change to a sidecar file for raw files or to the file header for DNG,Tiff and JPEG. (the info is in the file)
    b. Lightroom by default reads and writes to the Lightroom Catalog File. (the info is in the Catalog)
    c. Bridge/ACR cannot read or write to the Lightroom Catalog file.
    d. There is an option in Lightroom that allows Lightroom to also write to the sidecar file .xmp or to the file header in DNG, TIFF and JPEG files. This is necessary if you wish Bridge/ACR to read the info from the files.
    e. If you open a file directly in Bridge/ACR those changes will be stored as .xmp data. If the file had previously been imported into Lightroom those changes will not automatically be read by Lightroom, you will probably get a warning that the .xmp data has changed. If you choose the option to update the catalog the new .xmp file will change info in the catalog.

  • How do I unlock Network and other locations that now show padlocks in Bridge CS5?

    In the middle of using Bridge on my laptop with WIN8, I was suddenly confronted with locks on the Network, Homegroup, User, Documents, Videos, and Pictures, and more (but not all). The locks were not there prior to today. I have used this Bridge program a lot on my Desktop without ever encountering this problem. I tried some suggestions from the Forum-- such as go to the Bridge Folder Tree; rt clk and Reveal in explorer, but I can't find a path to a box marked "lock" to untick.
    Also, when I closed out of Bridge and re-opened, nearly all the documents that I placed in Collections Folders are now gone. Are these problems connected?

    The Network, Homegroup and various libraries are locked in Bridge; see screen shots. Could you be a little more specific about which program to use to unlock these; the right click over these in Bridge does not reveal the options you mentioned.

  • Where to see the PI's that trigger the 32-bit Bridge

    In a Mainstage concert, the 32-bit bridge keeps opening, but I can't figure out which PI's are triggering it. I've eliminated the one easy possibility (NI's Electric Piano) and any instance of Waves PI's. Otherwise, I'm using Omnisphere, Kontakt and the Logic/Mainstage PI's. All with the latest updates. As we know, the bridge is buggy and I wish to avoid using it. Is there an easy way to see somewhere which PI's trigger the Bridge?
    Thanks in advamce.

    Aerol, I can only assume that jimchik2 is wanting to take advantage of the memory advantages of running in 64-bit mode....and I can understand that.  I've also had difficulty in trying to pinpoint which of my plugins trigger the 32-bit bridge (which is a massive pain in the a$$) but have had no luck either.  It'd be nice if there were some way for MS to tell you which plugin triggers the bridge.
    As much as I would've liked to run in 64-bit for the memory advantages, I just ended up staying with 32-bit for now.

  • I have NEF files that won't preview in Bridge CS6

    I shot two D3s last night and downloaded both cards.  One the NEF files preview like normal and the other has NEF files that won't preview but open in Photoshop just fine.  Anyone know why they won't preview?

    You could try purging the Bridge Cache it may be messed up.  Edit>Preference>Cache>Purge Cache

  • I enabled my older 2014 version of Bridge. How do I undo that and enable the current Bridge?

    I was asked if I wanted to enable my 2014 version of Bridge and said yes which I now realize was a mistake. How do I get it back to the current 2015 version of Bridge?

    There is only one version of Bridge, and that is CC.  It has not been updated except for Adobe Camera Raw 9.0  Do you mean Lightroom?
    If so you should know Lightroom CC is a separate install. LR 5.71 is still installed.

  • Am I the only one that thinks iTunes slows everything down?

    Maybe my computer is just very slow, but I feel like itunes is terrible in terms of memory usage. Every time I start it, it takes forever to boot and slows everything else down. Even if my computer is slow, this is a fault in the program as others don't have this effect... Anyone have feedback?

    There's not much in iTunes that would slow the boot process of your computer, since the support processes (Mobile Device Support and Bonjour are the only ones I can think of that start at boot, though I may be forgetting one or two others) that iTunes uses don't start until late in the boot process. So I doubt that all your performance problems stem from iTunes. But you can try uninstalling iTunes - it shouldn't remove your content, but make sure you have a good backup just in case something goes wrong - and see if matters improve. That way you'll know for sure. Alternatively you can try just stopping, or uninstalling, the background processes and see if that makes any difference.
    Another possibility is your system's security software, which might be blocking or delaying the launch of some components.
    FWIW, I haven't seen any change in the performance of either my Windows XP nor Windows 7 systems after installation of iTunes.
    Regards.

  • Am i the only one that thinks iOS 7 is heavy on the battery??

    Seams as tho iOS 7 is kills the battery anyone else have this problem??

    At first, I felt like my iPhone 5 battery was running down much faster than it did with iOS 6, but now I am thinking, I was using it more the first day to see all the features.  There are many things you can do to reduce battery drain, but I don't know if the upgrade changed any of these settings that I had previously set for battery conservation. 

  • Am I the only person that thinks this is a problem?

    I have a Iphone4 and my friend sends me a multimedia text and I open it to find that it has came in two parts, one for the pic an the other for the sound which destroys the whole idea of the multimedia text for me, then I say ok if I can't enjoy it then maybe I can forward it to some one that can, just to find that forwarding a multimedia text is even worse than receiving one. Now I live in a house with teenagers and all of them have Iphone's, three Iphone 4's an one Iphone 3. I have approached each of them on this an each of them give me a excuse why they don't forward or don't mind that the Iphone has this problem. Well, me being the guy that has to pay for these toys, have a problem with this!
    I had a Motorola Karma before this IPhone an guess what? I sent an received my multimedia texts just fine! I got the phone for 20 dollars with a contract! I am over my 30 days on this phone an I am having more an more problems with it, like when I talk on the phone with it at my ear the lights on it flicker and guess what my ear will hit the mute button! Trying to send pic's with the phone as a text message an just to find it fail, again the teens have a work around for it! "just email it" well why should I do that if the phone says I can text it, my Karma did it just fine! I can't change my tones for my incoming texts or voicemails to what I want them to be, among other small things. I am very upset at all of this! This phone is not what I was told it was, an its gonna be a very expensive lesson for me, I should have researched instead of listening to everyone who had this phone!

    I'm sorry to hear about your complaints. Let me try to address them individual to see if I can help.
    For your complaint about your ear muting calls: Make sure the phone is snug to the side of your face. The proximity sensor in the phone needs to have coverage to assume the phone is next to your face. Check your iOS version number also. Make sure you're on version 4.2.1, which I'm told has some firm fixes that might resolve the sensitivity trouble with the proximity sensor.
    For your complaint about not being able to change text tones: You can change them. Go to Settings, Sounds and Text Tones. You can change to any of the preset sounds set by the phones software. If you want to create a custom text tone, that's not an option with the phone and hasn't been since it's initial release.
    For your complaint about MMS messages: That seems to be just how it works.
    I understand your frustration with an expensive device not having bells & whistles you hope for, but the device does exactly what it promises. If the iPhone isn't your cup of tea, that's fine too. Everyone has different needs and expectations. Just do some fact checking before you invest money into a phone next time to see if it suits you.

  • Resetting a PB 17" 1GHz Battery that "thinks" it's dead?

    I have a PB 17" 1GHz that just turned 3 years old. I have 2 batteries that I purchased with the CPU, and have rotated them through it's life. Neither of the batteries have gone more than about 3 months dormant (with a full charge), but recently, one of them has gone dead. Both batteries have under 40 charge cycles.
    The bad battery now shows 0% or sometimes the PB shows that there's no battery at all. cocnutBattery sometimes reports that it has good capacity, but 1 or -1 mAh of charge. When installed, my power cord goes amber for about 20 secs, then back to green, and it won't charge.
    Here's the odd thing - a few weeks ago, by putting the battery in and out several times, I was able to get it to charge. I gave it a full charge, then was able to use the PB for a good 2+ hours, almost as if it was in perfect shape, just a little short on time.
    So, I did a battery condition as recommended by Apple, by letting it fully discharge (to sleep) overnight. The next morning, it had totally shut down, even though Apple says these batteries can stay in sleep for something like a month after fully discharged. At this point, the battery stopped taking a charge.
    I've tried everything... reset the PMU... reset the nvram, popping the batt in and out, etc. For a while, cocnutBattery would show the charge cycles and other info, but now it shows 0 and the capacity and charge is -1 and 1. The PB menu shows that it's charging and at 0% (contantly), but the power cord is green - won't actually stay in a charging state.
    Now, because the battery did take a charge recently, unless the Apple-recommended battery condition actually killed it, I know this battery is potentially functional. It seems like it's just locked into a logic state of "dead" and needs to be reset somehow.
    I've scoured the new and the boards and can't find any tricks to do this. Does anyone have any suggestions? It's just my luck that I'm now 1 month past my 3-year APP plan, but with such a low cycle count on this battery and the fact that it died after running Apple's recondition procedure, if I can't reset it, I'm going to see if they can help.
    Thanks,
    -Mark

    First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and homebutton for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not work, try to set it up as new device:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If still no luck, get your battery checked by Apple, your battery has one year warranty:
    iPhone Owners
    Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. You can extend your coverage to two years from the date of your iPhone purchase with the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPhone. During the plan’s coverage period, Apple will replace the battery if it drops below 50% of its original capacity. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers a battery replacement for $79, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner

  • How do I unlock an InDesign CC file that thinks it is still open?

    My team works on a directly on the server with Macs running both Lion and Mountain Lion and Adobe CC. Sometimes InDesign crashes and leaves the file in the open state and renders the file unable to open, copy or duplicate. Previous versions of InDesign would at least allow you to copy the file that it thought was still open. Now with CC you cannot do anything with that file. Even deleting the .lDLK file in the terminal does not release that file. I know that it is a protection, but it is killing files.
