aole Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Is it possible ? When I plug the ethernet cable, AppleTV OS disconnect me from Wlan, even if I set the priority of the interfaces with System Preferences. Any Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aole Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 Ok,Maybe I've found what happens. Tonight I will try this simple hack. If I plug the cable, the Kernel Event Manager notifies to Kicker that Airport interface is going to turn off itself. So, the only way that I know is forcing the airport interface to re-turn on. To do this, I found a tool that is called networksetup and is located here /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/, so, once that the airport is re-turned on, we have to configure, and we can do this, using the same tool with a little help given from this other command /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Versions/A/Resources At this point I should have 2 interfaces up and running, so the only thing that remains is the configuration of the internet sharing. To do this, simply copy System Preferences.app and enable internet sharing in the apple style. Paper Late, tomorrow, after the ordeal. bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TofuTodd Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 any luck??? I just ordered a refubished airport express ($79) after giving up myself. I am an electrical engineer, but don't know mac os x all that well, so coding a hack is really out for me. But i would love to get the apple tv acting as an airport extreme! I'd love to help or test things for you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TofuTodd Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 sorry mac-mini, we are talking about the back row OS without OS X on the aTV. aole: I installed ARD 3 but get this error still: -bash: /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/networksetup: No such file or directory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holtmann Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Did anyone have success using: /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/networksetup? I tried: networksetup -setairportpower on And get: You cannot set AirPort power because all AirPort network services are disabled. I even tried: networksetup -setnetworkserviceenabled Airport on But it does not let me setairportpower on afterwards. At the moment as it seems there is no way to activate Airport, if an ethernet cable is plugged in. Any hints?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holtmann Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Use cd /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support and then ./networksetup -setairportpower on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
