Setting Up Wireless Capabilities On A Custom Homebuilt Computer
Dec 22, 2012
I have built my own computer and have almost finished with everything, but I am unsure as to how to set up the wireless capabilities for it. I am submitting this thread on the computer itself, but am using an ethernet cord to connect to the internet. I don't know if I need to download and install a different driver or if there is a simple way to just change some settings in the control panel. I am using windows 7 64 bit. The networking hardware is a realtek 8111f Gigabit LAN controller
I'm following a tutorial that 'dumbs down' the modem and lets me use the router for everything.
It asks me to set up a static LAN IP (10.x.x.x range) and edit the DHCP pool of the router. When I'm logged in to the routers admin, it doesn't seem I'm able to do any of this.
Earlier in the tutorial it also asked me to set up a static IP for the router, which I did I suppose.
I've added a screenshot of the admin panel, in case that's relevant.
I will be purchasing an Insprion 570 with an AMD Athlon II X2 Processor 245 and 4 gigabytes of RAM from Dell in a short while as a budget gaming computer. I have a Qwest wireless router connected to my main rig, and I was just wondering if I would need to buy a wireless adapter, namely the Netgear WNA3100 Wireless-N 300Mbps USB Adapter from Dell, to be able to recognize and connect to the network, or would it automatically recognize the network without it.
I have a Toshiba A665D. For some reason the wireless capabilities is turned on and doesnt turn back on no matter.what ive done
- ive tired fn+f8 but it tells me waireless capabilities are disabled. - the wireless button on top of the keyboard above the f8 does not do anything but light off then light back up - in Windows Mobility Center, the turn wireless on button is disabled so i cant use it - ive even tried uninstalling the driver and restarting the computer - system restore doesn't work
I own a Netgear Router and the wireless capabilities are not working. I have it connected to a comcast arris Modem. When i have and ethernet cable connecting my laptop, router, and modem, i get a connecting. but im not sure how to get the wireless running. I have used this router before ith my old internet provider. Ive tried messing around with the router settings for a while but i cant get it working.
I'm trying to set up a wireless bridge as part of my network and I'm having some issues.I'm only assuming I need a wireless bridge setup based on what I've gathered in forums such as this, but perhaps I'm barking up the wrong tree.Internet Modem --hard wire-- Belkin F9K1102 Router {{{fancy wifi waves}}} TP-Link TL-WR340G Router --hard wire-- CPU..I already have a working wireless/wired router (Belkin) that I use to get online. I have a CPU that can only connect to my network via hard wire in another room. Running a hard wire from my Belkin router to the CPU is NOT an option. Therefore, I would like to use my TP-Link router (which has built in WDS wireless bridge capability) as a wireless bridge and have it connect to my Belkin router and thereby the network and the internet via wifi. I will then connect my CPU to the TP-Link router via hard wire.
I've tested both routers directly and independently connected to the modem and they both work fine. The issue I have is only in trying to get the bridge between them to work. I've followed various tutorials (TP-Link website, YouTube videos, site like this one, etc.) to no avail.I know that my Belkin router does not specifically have wireless bridge capabilities, but I'm not sure if BOTH routers having this capability is necessary for a wireless bridge to work or not.I also have multiple screen shots of the router configuration settings for both routers which can be provided if need be.
I have a higrade VA250D laptop, I have just connected a wireless adapter to my main pc, but when i try to connect the laptop to the wireless connection i get the message that "the wireless adapter is turned off. turn the wireless connection on by means of the switch usually found on the side or front of the unit or by means of the function keys". I do not have a switch on anywhere of the outside of the laptop and i am unable to find a function key to turn it on. How to switch the wireless capabilities on. I have checked on the device manager and it has a green tick and says that the device is working properly.
Can I daisy chain an RV042 and a WRTSL54GS and have them work properly? I would like to take advantage of the VPN piece of the RV042 (as the primary router) and the wireless and storage capabilities of the WRTSL54GS.
I work in a small group with a network server so we can share files and documents from computer to computer. I am trying to access this server on a new computer and am not having any luck finding instructions on how to do so. I don't need to sign in to the network (to gain access to internet browser, etc), I need to be able to add this computer to our server so I can view these folders & files on this new computer.
I have a computer through my old school and i still cant get into the main part of the computer to change my password etc; How do i unblock it?when i click it, it says; please contact system administration but i cant and they wont tell me.
I have custom firmware installed on this router and everything is fine, signal strenth is 'excellent' ...BUT the internet on my laptop and also on my iphone keeps dropping out maybe once every two minutes.
I try to make custom web-auth bundle for WLC 2125. User authentication from this custom page work fine, but any error messages about wrong login/pass not work.
Is this supported function for custom pages? If yes, could you result a working html-code?
I have been tasked with migrating from ACS 4 to ACS 5.3. I havent had any training and so i am finding it a bit different. Currently i have this issue -
I have a group in the ACS 4 for users accessing via wireless on the ACS - Code...
I have 2 CISCO WS-C3750G-12S-E witch I`m concidering using as redundant VLAN routers for a small WISP network.Do not have much experiences with these, so I might be asking stupid questions...The network has about 2000 connected clients.
Traffic is about 300 - 400 Mbps duplex.
100000 - 150000 PPS
Expected this to get to about 3000 connected clients.
Traffic about 500 - 700 Mbps duplex.
150000 - 200000 PPS
Before these end their duty Are they up for the task, or do you reccomed something different?
I'm currently looking at the slew of firewall options out on the market. I have the task of recommending one for a client that has the most functionality for a reasonable cost (preferably no more than $800). I typically would go with the ASA 5505 w/base lic. I have been using ASA devices for some years now and they have been great. But, as with the ever changing internet and security threats, would I be ok in going with the ASA? I'll admit I'm not knowledgeable in all the capabilities of the ASA. Is it considered a "Nex-Gen" firewall? Where is the ASA ranked in comparison to the other options like SonicWall, Juniper, Fortinet, etc.? I've worked with SonicWall and Juniper, but did not like them. It has been sometime though, so maybe they have gotten better.
With having layer 7 filtering and IDS/IPS capabilities, one feature I will need is VLAN capabilities and ability to provide separate DHCP service for each VLAN (ASA can do this). I will be setting up a guest, internet only, network. VLAN trunking would be nice (ASA can do this with security plus lic, expensive though). In addition, having solid VPN capabilities (client and site-to-site). Good product support and documentation is a must too.
I have a network that is currently set up in the following way:Modem -> vonage Motorola router -> wireless router Most computers are hard wired to the Motorola router. Some other ones connect via the linkseys wireless router. All computers are able to connect to the Internet. The problem I have is that I will be setting up a home computer as a file server connected to the Motorola router. The network acts as though it is two meaning that computers on one router can't see computers on the other router. What steps should I take in order to make all computers accessible through both routers.When I type 192.168.1.1 from a computer on the Motorola router, I get nothing, when I type in my actual ip address, I get the Motorola router. When I type in 192.168.1.1 from a linkseys connected computer, I get access to the linkseys router.
Before I decide to purchase the ASA5510 as our firewall solution I'd like to clear up some confusion I have regarding its expansion capabilities. According to the Cisco website, the ASA5510 supports 1x SSM expansion slot. Intrusion prevention (IPS) is supported via the AIP SSM. Content Security (anti-virus/spyware, file blocking) is supported via the CSC SSM.
One would assume that only one of these expansions can be enabled at time since it is clearly stated that the ASA5510 supports 1x SSM expansion (AIP SSM or CSC SSM). However, the Cisco representatives I've spoken with on the phone claim I can concurrently run both the AIP SSM and CSC SSM in a single ASA5510.
Also, I am debating if the ASA5510 is overkill for our network infrastructure and perhaps we should be going with the ASA5505. Essentially, we have a large network of users and we'd like to firewall three machines from the users such that only certain users (15 users) are allowed to access them. Are there any other compelling arguments to use the ASA5510 instead of the ASA5505 aside from the fact that ASA5505 does not support content security?
We are trying to get the waep template (default no changes) from the Cisco WebAuth bundle to work on a 5508 controller.
We've setup the controller to use the custom login.tar that comes with the waep template folder in the bundle. We setup the WLAN to work off the global template and we used the config network web-auth secureweb disable command to allow only http rather than https (which is supposed to work in 7.2 code)
When we test with the custom bundle, we get no answer from the controller, just a url of [URL]
If we turn custom off, and use internal everything works...
Just to be clear.. we aren't looking for authentication (user and pass) we are trying to do the enter your email and click accept to the aup method.
Can I have two wireless networks running in the house? Does a low internet speed affects my home network sharing capabilities? Can I have one network with internet and the other one just intranet. I would like to stream using DLNA without affecting my internet speed. I have D-link router DGL-4500 and another router Cisco Linksys E1000 new in a box.The internet provider in my area only provides up to 750KBps. I have a large number of internet enable wireless devices and most of the time the connections is not even fast enoguh to even stream youtube video
I have a customer who has a Cisco 2821 router with software 2821/HSEC/K9 and they wish to upgrade to C2821-VSEC-SRST/K9.From my understanding they want to use the same router but install an IOS with the capabilites it has at the moment but with voice. [code]How do I go about pricing this up and what upgrade sku's will do this?I am not to worried about the memory.Is it just a simple ios upgrade as the srst licenses are on a trust basis?
Using a command prompt, how do I discover the internal IP of an unused router, which I set to a custom value and forgot? The router is not currently in use for internet access. I would like to access the control panel of the router without resetting it.I attached my netbook to the router with an RJ45 cable and disabled the netbook's wireless adapter to avoid conflicts with my current network. Using an elevated command prompt, I did an "ipconfig /release", rebooted and ran "ipconfig /all", but the gateway entry is blank. An "arp -a" returns 169.254.190.120 as the only interface. A "netstat -a" returns 169.254.190.120:xx...'s, 127.0.0.1:xx...'s, and 0.0.0.0:xx...'s, but no router internal IP address.Is there a way discover the attached device without resetting?
How to flash a DIR-601 Rev B1 with any of the custom firmwares out there? I've tried all of them this morning and haven't had any luck. I set the router to recovery mode and tried openwrt, dd-wrt, tomato, and gargoyle. I tried with chrome, firefox, ultra simple web browser, and ie 8. Every attempt resulted in "Upgrade Failed". I know Rev A1 is supported by DD-WRT, just sucks newegg sent me a B1. Looks like several other routers run similar hardware, so it's got to be doable.
we are desperately trying to set a custom password of our WCS database in order to use it for direct SQL queries (Cumbersome over Web surface). To my knowledge there is a way to reset it however this password would be randomly generated and not available in plain text.
Until version 6 there was a feature to directly set a password via the dbadmin command.
I have a Netgear WNDR3400 router and I would like to just dabble with it and see if I can't get any more performance out of it. I checked dd-wrt already and it isn't supported yet. Any other place to get custom firmware for my router type?
I am in need of playing a stream (generated by s program like VLC) on more than 3 TV's. The TV's are dumb lcd's with just hdmi connectors (no lan). I thought about getting some media players that I connect to the local network which will then pick up my stream and stream it further to the TV's.
I have a ACS 5.1, My mailing server does not run on standard port number of smtp (25). Need to know if i can customize the port number suiting my mailing server requirement.
whats the difference between custom and standard discovery? There´s a line on the help page: "The Use Policy Configuration Settings radio button will be enabled only after adding a Default Credential Set Policy."The radio button is not enabled although I´ve two default credential sets and two default credential sets policy configuration.
