I recently linked my dtv receiver to the internet through my laptop. My question is, since I'm now sharing the connection, do I need to make any adjustments in the "network and sharing center" to keep sensitive info on my laptop safe?I do have Norton Internet Security.
View 1 RepliesI have a Netgear Router connected by DSL to the Internet (through Roadrunner). I have a AT & T Microcell Tower and 2 computers connected to the Router: a desktop running Windows XP Home Edition wired to the Router and a laptop running Windows 7 connected to the router wirelessly. Both computers connect to the Internet without any problem. However, they do not communicate with each other. The laptop indicates a home network with all 3 devices, but cannot communicate with the desktop. The desktop does not show any network at all. It only indicates a connection through the Router.
View 1 Replies View RelatedQuestion: how would STP or RSTP behave in a star topology with a hub in the middle?i.e. you have four switches all linked to the same central hub. Single links, no loops.Each switch would then get BPDUs from everybody.Going by theory, it should be OK since it still sees the root's BPDU and will see the link to the hub as the root port, despite presence of other BPDUs from other switches? No different from receiving an inferior BPDU from an upstream switch and a superior BPDU from a further upstream root switch.I guess I could lab it by turning off spanning tree on a switch to simulate a hub? I've never previously had to deal with STP issues where there are hubs that aren't strictly point to point bridging so to speak (ok they're not bridging but you get the drift).I've got a scenario I'm examining at the moment where this is the topology, except all switches have bpdufilter running hence effectively no spanning tree. I'm curious to know what would happen should I remove the bpdufilter.I realise there is zero benefit in spanning tree in this instance as I don't have any redundant loops to fall back on, but I'm reluctant to turn off STP on those vlans (since obviously theres stuff behind those switches). The BPDUfilter method seems like an elegant solution but I wonder if its actually necessary.(the hub is actually a VPLS mesh, most sites terminate PE to CE router but I'm playing around with switches as the termination points – run our own Q in Q, split vlans off before it gets to layer 3 as separation, etc.)

I am using the DWA-552 wireless card to connect to it. When I first started using them together, this wasn't happening. Then, all of a sudden, one day it just started showing "above message repeated 1 times" just below the log entry for the client being associated".

The problem is that Website Filer doesn't work if on STEP 3: SELECT MACHINE of Access Control the machine was selected by MAC address. When the machine was selected by IP everything is fine.The problem is that IP addresses are assigned dynamically, so how to make sure that the policy would be applied to the same machine?
I know there are a lot of threads out there regarding connection issues, both with wireless & LAN connections, after updating firmware to 1.35. To provide a snapshot of my setup...I have 3 GB switches throughout my home, a couple Ethernet enabled Blu-Ray players, 2 XBOX 360's, multiple satellite receivers with Ethernet, 5 PC's, 3 iphones, etc...you get the picture. I also have 5 older DLink wi-fi cameras. So, with this said my setup has been flawless for some time. However, a week or so ago I upgraded my firmware on my DIR-655 to the latest version...everything still seemed fine at the time. Yesterday I noticed we had no wireless internet so I went and checked. Sure enough...no connectivity on my desktop that's directly linked to the router, etc.
I tried rebooting & then resetting the router...got connectivity, but as soon as I plugged my PC into the switch...no IP address. I played around with settings, wiring configurations, etc...I'm pretty up to speed on this setup so I felt I exhausted every option. I thought my router went bad...gave me an excuse to go get the latest so I brought home a NetGear N750...hooked it up. As soon as I changed the LAN IP address range to condense the #of IP addresses I'm giving out again, the LAN connection to the PC was lost...I could not get it restored. I finally got it working, bypassing the GB switch, but the wireless would lose connection literally after a few seconds.
I ended up taking the NetGear router back and bought the exact same DIR-655, but this time it was HW version B1 instead of A and it was firmware #2.00 or something like that. I hooked it up when I got home...configured the system to exactly the way I had it before and PRESTO!!! My system is working like it was before. I can only think that the firmware upgrade I made on the previous router screwed something up in my system.
In my home I have a cable modem wired to a links wireless router a wrt 300n in my office (only hardwired used in there) and I do not get such good distance to my back bedrooms with my laptop. I have run a Ethernet cable dead center of the house for my sat receiver that is connected and wired to the 300wrt. Here is my question can I use the 150 like a hub or switch at the office connected to the cable modem and use the wrt300n router so that I get wireless on that side of the house. Or in reading here I see I can maybe use a bridge. I do have a older Linksys wrt150n sitting in a box.I have read until my eyes are almost bleeding and am not sure. How I can get a better signal on the other side of the house.

Networking is almost an unknown to me. An ip config on the computers in the network brought the realization there are 2 sub-nets ... at least it looks like there are 2 sub-nets (192.168.1.x, and 192.168.2.x).
My gut tells me the above mentioned modem/router cannot be connected & configured to be used transparently for the computers connected to the other modem/router without additional hardware. Is this right?
I faced with a strange behavior of ME3600.For testing purposes I linked Cat3550 and ME3600 switches via trunk mode. All interfaces are in Up state. But I couldn't ping SVI200 of Cat switch from ME3600 and vice versa. [cde]
This scheme perfectly works with another L3 swithes. For example Catalist3750. I know that ME doesn't support VTP, DTP and so on. Also, I've tried latest software.
Just updated my DTV to a HD receiver which has the ability to access movies/shows via internet so I hard wired my belkin router to the TV receiver and I can't get it to connect. The router light does not go on showing me I am not connecting to the TV receiver. When I go into the DTV receiver it reads all my IP address and has an OK behind them, but says there is an error and the internet is not connected. When I plug the same cable into my PC or my laptop the light on the router does come on. Also my iphone does receive WIFI via the same router. I called DTV and they said everything on the receiver is correct. I called my router folks and they said everything is correct and that it must be the DTV receiver. I've been using this router for several years and their tech guy sounded like he knew what he was doing. how I can get the router to recognize the TV receiver?

A 2 Wire 2701HG-B DSL MODEM/Router Upstairs
Wired into 2 PCs upstairs
WiFi to a PC Downstairs.
I killed the DSL service and got U-verse, but that added a new Modem/WiFi downstairs. I still have the 2Wire upstairs, but it has no phone connection.Can I use the 2Wire to "Receive" and "distribute" the WiFi signal from downstairs?
I don't see how to turn off the DSL MODEM. If I put in the ID and Password for the WiFi router downstairs into the 2Wire upstairs, will it "Login" or will it conflict? Are there special settings for the PCs to access the U-Verse router through the 2Wire?Basically, I want to know if the upstairs 2Wire can receive the U-verse signal and convert it to wired signal for the 2 upstairs PCs.

I have tested snmp and ping connectivity between the WCS box and the notification reciever and it works ok, is there some other traffic that I might be missing?. I've seen some packets going from the WCS box to TCP port 7 on the reciever, which as far as I know is the echo service, is that what WCS uses to test connectivity?
