Authentication error when roaming to different AP - authentication

I'm trying to setup the internet at my home. I have an edgerouter x as main router and I want to connect 3 wifi access points to it, all with the same SSID/password so I can roam through my house without having to connect to a different network. The solution seemed simple, setup AP with DHCP and set the other two APs in bridge mode, disable DHCP, set the right SSID and password and done.
Everything goes fine for the AP with DHCP and 1 other AP, but whenever I add the third AP, I can't connect to the wifi, it just keeps on authenticating.
I tried looking up the problem of course, what I found that it is probably due to different security settings on the different APs. However, I can't seem to find where/how to match these settings to resolve the issue.
Could anyone help me out?
The router that has the problem is the TP-Link Archer C7. The one with DHCP enabled is the Netgear WAC104 and the AP that does work is the TP-link AP200.

In my case (one root AP and one bridged; i couldn't get around Authetication error on Windows 10 and Android when trying to connect to bridged AP) what partially worked was in the android settings - wifi - WPS Push Button and when prompt to push WPS button on AP i did so and voila. Android suddenly connected and Windows 10 as well (did nothing additional there). Just to clarify - AP is TP-Link. ANd what dodn't work was adding MAC address as allowed to MAC filtering. Didn't seem to have any security differernces since i use almost all settings on default and two APs were same model and firmware. It worked partially because after a few minutes tried to connect to bridged AP but had to repeat WPS steps in order to work.

The console has been disconnected. Close this window and re-launch the console to reconnect

I am having an issue when trying to open to any VMs using "Launch Web Console" option via the vcsa 6.7 . I was wondering if someone could please point me in the right direction?
My environment currently looks like this:
1) vcsa 6.7
2) Three Esxi (6.7) Hosts & multiple vms are running (including windows & Linux)
Whenever I try to connect to the console, I get the following error:
The console has been disconnected. Close this window and re-launch the console to reconnect.
Console access is given through a connection to the ESXi host.
Often times I receive this message when connected to the console of a VM which has vMotioned to another host. However, I can close and re-open the console just fine.
You may also want to verify that you can access port 902 (TCP & UDP) for each of your three hosts. Example of this requirement: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.0/com.vmware.vsphere.install.doc/GUID-5071C86E-FF1E-4E54-A424-A20917401160.html
I had the same exact problem and unfortunately, the solutions I found on the internet did not solve my problem. I had to re-check my settings and found out that the problem was the proxy setting was ticked on. which it won't allow you to connect to any others services as well if you are out of range of that proxy. The Solutions "FOR MAC USERS" as follows:
1-Go to your network settings.
2-From the menu down to the right-click more options. in my picture say (Weitere Optionen) "German".
3-From the menu on the left side make sure that the proxy option is 'unticked' (not chosen).
Then click on to confirm and enjoy using your VM service. Hope this would solve your problem as well as it did to mine.

IP camera - nexus 235fw. How to reset ip address

I have this IP camera, Nexus CCTV 235FW. I can't connect to it anymore. Is there anyway I can reset it?
I think it happens after I changed the admin password. It is connected thought WiFi, but I have also tried with cable, without any luck.
I have also tried to search after the camera with the Search Tools, but still no luck.
Another thing, I can't even see the camera in the router's list over connected units.
Hope anyone can help me.
It seems that the problem was a router I had between my main router and the camera. Because after I got the router reset, I got that connection again. Just strange, because I just moved the router from one place to another without changing the setup. But now everything works again.

USB Mobile Broadband Modem on Windows 10 IoT?

Anyone had experience using a USB Mobile Broadband on Windows IoT with the Raspberry Pi2 already?
I have a Huawei datacard in the Windows IoT and appears as HUAWEI Mobile on connected devices but I'm unable to see the device on the wifimanager.htm admin page.
Don't even appear on the Device Manager list. Is this lack of drivers?
I was looking for a solution too, and I have finally found one. I hope the following will help you!
For the record, I used a Vodafone (Huawei) K5150, "officially" supported and Microsoft verified, according to the hardware compatibility list: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot/win10/supportedinterfaces. The device was recognized and visible on the portal through an hdmi screen. Anyway, the raspberry couldn't get internet access.
Here is what I did to make it work:
install the key on a common laptop and check the internet access. Windows should see it as a cellular connection by the way.
find the xml file generated by Windows and located under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\WwanSvc\Profiles. This file is called a profile and is used by Windows to characterize every wireless connection it sees. You can of course create yourself this file from scratch, but it's far more complicated/boring. You can also normally do that with the netsh command and the import or dump sub-command, but it doesn't work for broadband devices.
connect your raspberry to your local network and go to \\[name or IP address]\c$. In my case, it was \\minwinpc\c$. There, find a suitable place to copy the xml file, as well as the bmp file next to it, and don't forget to modify its content to point the right path for the icon (the bmp file).
the next step is super tricky, but highly important: you have to find the subscriber ID for your key. The one saved in the xml file is actually a kind of hash and if you don't set the correct value you'll have an error like
Add Profile Failure: Invalid Profile XML.
connect the key to your raspberry and enter a PSSession with PowerShell (details here: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot/win10/samples/powershell). Then, use this command: netsh mbn show readyinfo interface="Cellular". The correct interface (in my case it's "Cellular") can be retrieved with the command netsh mbn show interfaces (mbn standing for Mobile Broadband I suppose). The subscriber ID, with other useful information, is displayed and you can copy it the to the xml file on your raspberry.
what's left is the actual profile activation, in two parts: add the newly imported profile and tell the raspberry to connect to it. For that, use the commands netsh mbn add profile interface="Cellular" name="profile.xml" and netsh mbn connect interface="Cellular" connmode=name name=ProfileName.
You mobile broadband key should now be activated and the raspberry should automatically connect to it at start.
Here are the few links that helped me a lot:

TIA PORTAL v11. Open existing project

I have to use an existing project in STEP7/TIA PORTAL v11 and I have the PLC (CPU 1212C AC/DC/RLY) with the code downloaded inside it which is connected to a touch panel (KTP600 Basic Color PN).
What I want is to download the code from the PLC to my computer to try to modify it, is this posible?
Because I've tried to connect it to my PC and it doesn't detect it. It turns on the ERROR and the MAINT leds in red.
The configuration is over a virtual machine (VMware player with Windows 7) because my PC has Windows 8 installed and it doesn't support TIA PORTAL is there any problem with this?
If program was uploaded with TIA11 it is not good idea to use v13. What is more with other version you need new licence keys.
From your vm ping the plc address if itis in right subnet. Then serch for sccessible nodes. On your picture i see that you should try using 'search all accessible devices'.
Upgrade to version 13 of TIA Portal. This version can run under Windows 8.
Under VMWare you have to change the network settings for your Virtual Machine to bridged. Also install VMWware Tools.
Those are some steps that I would try.
make sure you can ping it from inside your Virtual Machine. It will validate the route to the plc (cable, network config). It’s not a necessary step to connect to a plc, but it’s a good check.
Go to Control Panel on Windows, then PG/PC , then make sure that you have the right Hardware Interface Active
If you still not able to see the PLC, I advise you to to download PRONETA, if it still doesn’t show up there, then the research would have to go deeper. Until today, I’ve only one time in all year when a device have not apeares in Proneta.

How to disable/disconnect ethernet adapter in mac os x programmatically?

I am new to mac os x programming and just got an assignment to write small utility that disable either wireless or wired adapter based on configuration. I was able to disconnect wireless using corewlan framework like :
CWInterface interface = [CWInterface interfaceWithName:#"en1"];
BOOL result = [interface setPower:NO error:&err];
and it is working as expected. I need similar code to disable/disconnect ethernet adapter. I researched that ifconfig (as mentioned below can be used):
sudo ifconfig en0 down
but it require admin password and that i don't want to do. Please suggest an alternative programatic way to disable ethernet adapter without root password.
I read that SCNetworkConfiguration can be used but don't know how to use it. Please help.
Thanks
You cannot shut off network interfaces without having admin access (i.e. that's why the padlock is there in the Network Preference Pane). Think of it this way... you would not want non-admin users on any public machine being able to turn off the network arbitrarily.
For my own apps where I also disable Ethernet & WiFi, I have to get privileges to launch a separate tool in order to run stuff from the SystemConfiguration framework as admin.
