  Open airport utility... Click EI... and see what the cause of the problem. It will give the list of questions on the summary page. Click on each of them and he will offer you even solutions.

  for example the firmware needs to be updated... nothing major... or DNS is wrong or double NAT...

• OfficeJet Pro 8000 Wireless does not connect to my new Airport Extreme router

  I've owned my Officejet 8000 Wireless printer for about a year and had no problems with it.  However, my old wireless router wasn't fully compatible Mac so I couldn't fix it with a password.  I now need a secure network, so I bought an Apple Airport Extreme router in December.

  Last night, I installed the router and it works fine on my iMac, my laptop and my iPhone.

  However, tonight, I'm trying to implement Officejet Pro 8000 with no luck.  I searched the posts here for 3 hours and am not finding the help I need.  Based on the other posts, I read, I describe my situation below.

  I am trying to set up the printer in my iMac Intel with Mac OS 10.6.4

  I'm trying to set up the printer with the installation wizard HP I just install the printer software.

  On the first screen of the wizard, it tells me that my device is not configured (I agree)

  Then I ask him to set up a wireless network.

  When I get to the network selection page, both my network AND my network of comments (that I let my neighbor use) are on the list with the full signal strength.

  When I click on my network and then continue, the HP installation wizard hangs and I have to stop, he.

  When I click on my guest and then network continue, I get the message that my network is not within reach.  (FYI, the printer is 10 feet from the router).

  I tried to power on/off the printer, the router and the computer at all different stages of the process with no luck.

  For my Airport:

  My radio is set to the most compatible choice

  MAC access control is not enabled

  Everything is WPA2 security

  'Use wide channels' and "Create a closed network" is unchecked

  The channel is set to 11

  I'm happy to try the "Add client in the network" thing I've seen on other posts, but I don't think that I have a front panel of the printer where I can start the "WPS" (don't know what it is) process.   If I do, it is not obvious and not in the HP manual.

  My ISP is Comcast (cable internet).

  I'd really, really grateful for the help!  Please let me know what I forgot to include information, and I will be happy to provide it.

  Thank you!

  OK to reset the printing system again, he may be blocked.

• Airport Extreme router's Express is connected by wire, East of 1 Gbps ports on switch it extreme on 100Bt now?

  Hi all

  In my house, the extreme is connected to a fiber modem 250 / 250 MB/s and I plugged a time Machine as an Express via CAT6 UTP. All serve as a router and provide 2.4 and 5 GHz wifi on the different floors of the House. Just a question: Express has 2 ports ethernet 100BT, Extreme and Time Machine have 3 1000BT Ethernet ports. The extreme switch mode back all 100BT because of the Express ports?  Because that would explain the downgrade in the port on the extreme speed after that the PS3 has been used connected to the Express.

  

  The extreme switch mode back all 100BT because of the Express ports?

  No.... but any device connected to the Terminal AirPort Express will have a maximum speed of 100 Mbps. So, if you connect a 1 000 compatible device to the Ethernet port on the Express, it would appear as a device of 100 Mbps on the network as the Express is limiting speeds.

  So, if you want a device that is capable of 1 000 Mbit/s to have 1 000 Mbit/s speed on your network, it will have to connect to AirPort Extreme or time Capsule.

• ARE remote with Apple Airport Extreme router wireless

  Hi all! I'm controlling my DA5800 STR using the Remote ES app but neither my iOS device sees the receiver OR my Sony Android Tablet S. So I figure it must be the network set up. I use a cable modem Motorola connected to an Apple Airport Extreme via an ethernet cable. The receiver is connected to the router, as shown in the manual.

  I'm doing something wrong here?

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  Hello Sandiegodom,

  Please check the network settings on the receiver ARE and confirm that the 'external control' is active, as well as the "relief network" that will allow the application ARE the 'waking up' the unit from standby mode.

  Also check that your phone is connected to the same wireless network, and IP addresses of the phone and the receiver are in the same subnet / IP Range. UpNp must also be enabled in the settings of the router.

  If you have verifed that these settings are correct, then the question is perhaps with the router where it does not send data to the local discovery of uPnP network devices. A simple power reset or resetting the router will sometimes force the router to send back data and should fix the problem if that is the case.

• Presario 2175US not able to connect to the radio after installing Apple Airport Extreme router

  Hi all.  I have a Presario 2175US portable computer that is running Windows XP SP2.  The wireless adapter is a Broadcom 802. 11b / g WLAN adapter.  We have recently installed a router Apple AirPort Extreme in our House, with a network WPA2 key, and while the wireless network is visible on my laptop, when I try to connect, it tries to connect for about 90 seconds, but fails.  Unlike other laptops that we have, it does not ask me to enter the network key before trying to connect.  If anyone has a solution to this problem, I would be very grateful.  Thank you.

  Thanks for the comments, Paul.  I am pleased to say that the problem was solved after I installed the Windows XP SP3.

• Connection printer 3050 has to new airport extreme router

  I just upgraded my router to the extreme of Apple Air Port and cannot figure out how to connect the printer to the router.  I do not have the CD that came with the printer and can't find where to download the HP software.  The printer is recognized on computers (Mac OS 10.9.2) goal will not display because it is "not connected" to the network.   Before, I just used the WPS option on the printer and pushed the button on the router.  Since this is not an option more, I keep looking, but does not know where to put the PIN either.  Help, please!

  Thank you!!

  Thanks for the reply.  I called Apple support and they walked me through the steps of adding a printer WPS to extreme Air Port (Airport basestations Menu utility (top), then select Add a WPS printer and then have it search for printer or enter the PIN).  He missed by looking at the menu at the top of the AirPort Utility where the Menu Option of base station is... But I can't believe how it was difficult to try to find a solution to the HP Web site for that!  Looks like it would be a simple soultion to the list.

• HP Photosmart C4795 with Apple Airport Extreme Wireless router - cable PC problem

  Hello

  I searched, but I can't quite find an exact match for my problem.

  I have a new HP desktop computer running Windows 7, and I attach it to my wireless router which is an Apple Airport Extreme.  I have attached my HP C4795 printer to the USB port on the * router *.  In theory, the USB key should pass through, so that the office will think it's a printer "connected", while also allowing us to print remotely from our laptops (via the router).

  Unfortunately, while portable computers can print wireless very well, the * office * Guard 'lose' the printer, thinking that it is in offline mode.  Even when it shows 'online' (after my relocation via "Add a printer"), still error-out print jobs.

  Can someone help me understand how this works?  The printer works fine, btw, if I disconnect the USB cable between the router and plug directly to the PC, if it isn't something directly with the printer or the desktop, but rather the * combination * of running through the Apple Airport Extreme router.

  Thank you

  Terry

  Thank you, once again, Jim.

  I think I have stumbled on the solution.  I did a reading online on Apple application 'Hello', and how he felt necessary for Apple devices, like the airport, knit with device sharing.  I forgot that the installation of the airport disk had said something Hello installation, but I discovered on my Wired HP Win 7 PC menu programs, called 'Hello Printer Utility' or something, and I launched it, selected the C4795 in the dialog box, and all seems to be put in place (i.e. the printer suddenly showed as 'online' and I could print from my desktop wired as well as wireless laptop).

  Success!

  Thanks for all your help on this.  Now, all I need is to get my WD My Book external/sharing the hard drive to work as well!  Unfortunately, I do not see here a "Hello Hard Disk Utility", but I feel somehow that morning will be the answer.  I just understand it.

  Thank you

• Airport Extreme fall wifi

  My preferred Airport extreme router seems to be losing force wifi and drop the base signal.

  What model and how old?

  They get too slowly after almost 5 years... some more soon... especially the ca version can go bad after a couple of years.

  Back to the factory and start over with a new clean configuration and see if it improves. If this isn't the case, you probably need a replacement.

• Airport Extreme network 4G connection

  I currently have the following configuration for my internet appliances:

  I have an Airport Extreme unit serving wireless three units Airport Express to extend WiFi coverage throughout the House. Physically connected to the Airport Extreme via ethernet are two televisions Panasonic who can access the same places predetermined via the internet (for example, BigPond movies and television, People, ABC iView, SBS OnDemand). To enable connectivity to other sites such as Netflix, Stan etc every Panasonic TV has its own unit of Apple TV connected to Airport Extreme via WiFi.

  I use Airport Extreme for all my other internal needs such as web connectivity MacBook and iPhone.

  The Airport Extreme WAN port is so physically connected to the ADSL modem and line phone Telstra for the Exchange, which is about 4 km.

  The problem is that the speed of download of the ADSL 2 + are poor, maxing out at about 3.5mbps. When I listen to the live broadcast of MotoGP and World Superbike racing the picture often freezes while he puts in buffer. Watched movies via Netflix and Stan often freezes too.

  I just ran a speed test on the Telstra Mobile 4 G network and I got a download speed of 111.94Mbps 41.77Mbps upload speed.

  Now, I'm thinking it would be great if I could connect my home network to the internet via their WiFi 4 G device X Pro Advanced.

  My question is this:

  Is it possible to connect the Airport Extreme to the Telstra WiFi 4 G device and the use of the mobile network for my internet and get rid of the ADSL modem? I don't think I can use USB Extreme airport connection, I think that the port is only to connect a printer, but I do not know if the Airport Extreme talk wireless Telstra 4 G device. Documentation of Telstra said their device will connect up to 10 devices using WiFi, but I do not know if there would be problems with the Airport Extreme router to talk to her.

  After spending heaps on all these units of Apple (1 x Airport Extreme) and 3 x Airport Express I don't want to lose, but if there is no way to Airport Extreme wireless unit of Telstra (or if this method is ridiculous) so maybe I might be able to get the device of Telstra to talk to all my other WiFi devices directly. Then, I might be able to sell the extreme and expresses it.

  I had a discussion with Apple Support through their chat session, but the person with which I spoke was not able to help.

  Thanks in advance.

  You need a device that is able to connect via Ethernet to the AirPort Extreme base station.

  With a plain/direct USB 4 G modem, a router broadband mobile sometimes can act in Bridge mode and thus provide a conversion method. For example, Dovado has these routers, but their modem (http://www.dovado.com/en/support/modems) compatibility list appears to cite that a single Telstra USB 4 G modem (ZTE) which supports the mode bridge.

  Your question indicates, however, that the 4G modem is actually a mobile access point (providing a local Wi - Fi network). If so, it may or may not be possible to use the wireless Ethernet Bridge (maybe even a model of Apple AirPort Express appropriate) to join this hotspot wireless and then connect via Ethernet to the entrance of the AirPort Extreme. This is all experimental, however. Various problems, including double NAT, are to be expected.

• flashing orange light on the 2008 model apple extreme router: address?

  My 2008 model Airport extreme router flashes a yellow light (not in green). Don't know how to fix this. This is a recent situation that continues, but does not affect no connectivity. Apple phone support is no longer can help they say it's "obsolete." but it works very well so far with flashing orange. Fear

• The Airport Extreme has download slow unless its an apple product

  I need help.  I have an Airport Extreme router.  I run a HP all in one office, two smart TV, Wii and two boxes on my router.  Not all work at the same time, nor do two pass at the same time.

  I check my router on Mac speed: 100 Mbit/s easy.  I check my iphone: 100 Mbps.  I checked the HP desktop computer: 30-50 Mbps.  I haven't checked the Wii, Smart TVs do not open always Netflix, my boxes go slow and buffer for long periods of time.

  There must be a setting that does not allow non-Apple products to run more slowly.  I pay 100 Mbps and expect to receive 100 Mbps on the Airport Extreme for all products, not just Apple products.

  What I could try or have I missed that should be done so all non-Apple products get the speed of download and Apple products?

  I called support and they had me change the channels in the configuration of the Airport Extreme wireless.  That did not help.  I changed them back and now the iPhone runs slower, below 50 Mbps upload when you fill out a speed test on www.speedtest.com.  I'm sitting in the same place.  It makes no sense at all.

• Airport Extreme connected to TIVO: why I can not change Type firewall for IPv4.  Field displays IPv6 and is grayed out so I can't change.

  TIVO requires certain ports to be unblocked.  So I try to add the ports requiring TIVO.  But when you try to add the default Type of firewall IPv6 Port Mapping ports and I can't change the value of the IPv4 Port Mapping because the input field is grayed out and no is not accessible.  With Port IPv6 mapping I enter values in all areas except for the IPv6 address because I do not know what value to enter.  I think the button 'save' ' is not available to hit because the IPv6 address field is empty or not valid.  Note: my router Mode is ' Off (Bridge Mode).  Same questions if my router DHCP Mode.

  I changed my router Mode DHCP and NAT, then on the Type of firewall on the default page add ports, IPv4 Port Mapping and I could add ports but with this setting, I couldn't connect to internet in my Airport Extreme: my status remains orange light flashing.

  I use Comcast and my Airport Extreme is connected to my Comcast router using ethernet.

  I use my Airport Extreme as a router (wired and WIRELESS) and as a backup device.

  My TIVO is connected to my Airport Extreme using ethernet.

  How can I add the Ports requiring TIVO.

  Golden in the networking rule. ....... Never try to configure port mapping when you have two devices on the same network the two acting as a router.

  Unfortunately, this is exactly what you're trying to do.

  You have three options:

  (1) run the Comcast router "as what" and configure the port on the device of Comcast mapping... .the airPort Extreme must be configured in Bridge Mode when you do this.

  (2) lance to the AirPort Extreme router Mode of DHCP and NAT and configure the ports on the airport map... the peripheral Comcast must be configured to operate as a simple modem in Bridge Mode when you do this. 

  
  

  (3) lance to the AirPort Extreme router Mode of DHCP and NAT and configure the ports on the airport map... swap Comcast modem/router you have now for a simple modem (it will have only a single Ethernet port).

  In other words, either the Comcast is defined as the router and AirPort Extreme is in Bridge Mode... or... the AiPort Extreme is configured as a router and Comcast must be configured in Bridge Mode.

  If you choose Option 1, then we can not help you on a matter of Comcast router. In bridged Mode, the AirPort Extreme requires no configuration.

  If you choose Option 2 or Option 3, then we the following port values that the Tivo device needs:

  Public or UDP ports

  Public TCP

  UDP private

  Private TCP

  In addition, you need to find the MAC address for the TIVO.  It is a long code that looks something like this, for example:

  A1: B2: C3: D4: E5: F6

  A link to the Tivo instructions for port mapping would also be very useful.  I have done this with a TIVO in the past, but is for some years.

  If all goes well, an expert of TIVO will post to lend a hand.

• Loading slow web page and with Airport Extreme connection speeds

  About 5 days ago, I noticed a significant slow down the loading of web pages. In some cases, I see a blank white screen for up to a minute before the page is loaded. In others, the page never loads at all. And sometimes they load very quickly as expected. This happens with my iMac that is connected to a router via ethernet, as well as my Macbook Air connected via Wifi to Airport Extreme.

  I have a high-speed internet connection by cable Comcast/Xfinity: Blast 250Mbps.

  I tried to connect my iMac directly on the model of cable (Arris Surfboard SB6183), and there is no problem. Download speed was 30Mbps 300Mbps and upload.

  Then, I plugged my Airport Extreme router again and connected the iMac to the router via Ethernet. Download speed dropped to 100 Mbps!

  This suggests that the problem may be with the Airport Express. It is not a wireless problem, because as you can see the download speed went from 300Mbp/s connected directly to the model 100 Mbps when connected to the Airport Extreme.

  How do I troubleshoot/fix this?

  One last thing: I did a speed test with my Macbook Air that is connected via Wifi and the Airport Extreme router. Download speed dropped to 35 MB/s.

  Direct connection to the modem is so very fast, suggesting the internet connection Comcast isn't the issue. Speed falls even with ethernet to the Airport Extreme router connection, then decreases even more with the Wifi connection.

• Problem with firewall AirPort Extreme.

  HI, I need help. I recently bought an AirPort Extreme router. The router doesn't let me download the movie on the web Icdrama.se. I'm trying to set the firewall in bridge mode, but my router automatic guard return to DHCP and Nat mode. I wonder how can I keep my stay of router in bridged mode, so that I can watch my movie fav, please help

  When the reconfiguration of a base station AirPort as a bridge, it should NOT automatically reconfigure itself back using DHCP and NAT. something was wrong in the configuration of the base station or the base station itself is defective.

  Did you use your iPad to configure your AirPort Extreme? What is the brand and model of the modem Internet extreme directly connected by Ethernet to?
