Hi Charles,

NOthe system is my MBP connected via Wireless... I have tried both options... it works fine via wired, no problems, but only inconsistently via wifi... Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.... If I power cycle the AP and the NAS it works via Wireless for a limited time... somewhere in a 24 hour period it stops working... > >> We also have an NAS drive, Xerox Printer and one extra Mac MIni >> connected to one of the ethernet ports and they are also not able to >> be connected to when the AP base station exhibits the symptom... >> >> Our setup is pretty simple... >> >> Verizon DSL modem >> | >> Apple AP Extreme Base >> | >> port 1: NAS Drive >> port 2: Xerox WorkCenter Printer >> port 3: Mac Mini >> > > By port I presume you mean the wired ports?

Some static? I reserved IP addresses for each of the devices connected to the wired ethernet ports.... the Printer, the NAS and the MacMini are all assigned IPs in the range... but the AP is acting as a DHCP server for the remainder of the IPs... Hope this helps... Jason. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SOCALWUG" group.
