connect an old Belkin router to a new Airport Extreme

Connect my old Belkin N300 router to my Airport Extreme new would have any advantage to do?  What would be the benefits?

I would only do this if you have any questions using the router Apple on say a PC or a customer who don't will connect easily to the AE directly.

You must connect by ethernet... and configure the Bellkin in mode Bypass WAN... Just google that... unless it of a very recent model and has WAP mode built in.

What question first of all of your problems. If you need help post again with the why so we have an idea how to do the installation.

  • How do you connect a (very) old Apple Airport Express to a new Airport Extreme network?

    For Bob Timmons:

    I have 2 old airport expresses, an old and one even older. The network home fled the old Express (connected to a modem), who abandons the connection several times a week. The older Express seems quite dead. What I want to do is to increase wifi coverage in my house (no wifi in the kitchen or the 3rd floor). I buy an Airport Extreme to manage the network, hoping that it would provide wireless coverage in my blind spots. Then I could use the former, Express work next to my stereo to listen to the music of my iMac.

    However: the new airport utility shows but does not interact with my work Express. If I buy one extreme and put in place, how I can add the Express network. I downloaded 5.6.1 (and launcher) Airport utility, but don't know if I can use 6.3.6 to implement extreme and 5.6.1 Configure Express.

    Any thoughts on this would be welcome.

    Sorry, I forgot to ask: even if the Airport 6.3.6 utility on the iMac refuses to 'see' the Express, would be the iPad method you mentioned work with an older Express?

    The model numbers of my expressed are:

    work: A1084

    a death: A1264

    Well, if A1264 is dead, it is the end of the discussion on this model.

    A1084... assuming it works... could probably be used for AirPlay, but the A1084 calls this AirTunes.

    The A1084 is at least 9 years old, probably older and the average useful life of an AirPort Express is about 3-4 years. It is amazing the A1084 to work at all, but school drop-outs you see now with the Express indicates that it is heading for the South, he may not be around much longer.

    If you want to try using the A1084 Express, it can be implemented and administered using an older version of AirPort 5.x on a Mac or a PC utility. No matter which version of AirPort 6.x...or.. utility. AirPort on an iPhone or iPad utility may NOT be compatible with the A1084 Express.

    If you are considering a new AirPort Extreme... and... or buy at Apple, so you have one day 14 return privilege on the product, if it will not do what you want, you can return it for credit or a return.  The older A1084 expected to collaborate with the new AirPort Extreme if you spot a version 5.x of AirPort on a Mac or a PC utility to configure the product.  But... saying "should work" is not the same thing as saying "work"... then it will be one of those moments where you won't know how well... or even if it will work until you try.

  • Can I use old time capsule for storage only with a new airport extreme (standard want latest HQ)?

    I have a time Capsule elders (802.11n). I would like to know if I can still use this time Capsule only as a network storage device, if I decide to build my network with a new Airport Extreme (802.11ac). If I can do that, how would I set up the network to continue automatic backups with a router to update?

    To do what you want, the new AirPort Extreme 802.11ac would be installed as the "main" network router The time Capsule would be connected to the AirPort Extreme, using a wired Ethernet cable connection, and the time Capsule should be configured to run in bridge with the service Mode Wireless off.

    Any Mac you want to save in the time Capsule would need to have Time Machine preferences on each Mac adjusted to ensure that the time Capsule has been set as the target for backup.

    If you decide to add the AirPort Extreme, post back for more information at this time, if you need installation instructions step by step.

  • New AirPort Extreme and 802.11ac configuration

    Greetings,

    I'll install a new new AirPort Extreme instead of my old Time Capsule gen1.

    Like many people here, I have a combination of features b/g, n and ca.  I want to make sure my end of 2013 iMac connects optimally via ac.  It is in the line of fire of the new router in 25', so it should be in a good location, if all goes well.

    My question is if I have to just put up an SSID and let devices their own switching group; or experienced here people recommend a SSID separated for the strip of the 5 GHz for ac and n devices?

    Thank you!

    Dave

    Start with normal default values.

    That is to say the band permutation is left to the Mac and SSID is the same on both bands.

    If you then find that the Mac makes the wrong choice... a real possibility. And it's important for you... Then assign the SSID on 5 GHz a different name.

    217Mbps is expected to reach a speed at 2.4 ghz and which probably exceeds the speed of your internet with a margin far... (you need at least 2 x the speed of wireless internet to follow, IE if internet is 100 Mbps Wireless should be 200 Mbit/s at least because of half duplex wireless nature). If you have several items that some should be forced to 5 GHz, which can control...

  • New Airport Extreme

    I want to Exchange my old AE for a new on my PC using windows 10. Unfortunately, Airport utility does not pick up my new AE to allow me to do something with it.

    Any help would be appreciated thanks.

    Windows cannot be used to install and configure the current version of the AirPort Extreme. You will need a Mac running a current or recent operating system or an iPhone or iPad to configure and administer the AirPort Extreme.

    Of the product from Apple on the AirPort Extreme:

    Once you have created the new AirPort Extreme and operating a PC should be able to connect to the network generated by the airport wireless.

  • New Airport extreme can't see printer

    I have a new Airport Extreme with an external hard drive and printer, but all of a sudden the printer to stop working with a "printer not connected" message. The reader and the printer are connected through a powered USB hub. What is the problem?

    While keeping the USB hub powered in place, try to temporarily remove the hard drive and have just installed printer. Can you access the printer now?

    If so, it may be that the powered hub may not provide enough power or it is defective. If this isn't the case, temporarily connect the printer to your computer. It is accessible now?

  • 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.

  • How to connect printer 2.4 Ghz band dual band Airport Extreme?

    I need a new printer connect to my Imac running OS 10.7.5 wirelessly.  My router is multiband Airport Extreme.  Most printers seem to does not support multi-band wireless;  they can't stand the 2.4 Ghz band.  Is there some document printers (I need scanning and copy also) which will be easily connected to the Airport Extreme multi-band, or is it possible I can put the Airport Extreme for a printer would only watch the band 2.4 Ghz?

    I found something on Google that says wireless devices should be filled, by disabling the Wlan partition.  I don't know what that means.   Another article said I could name the SSID separately and connect the printer to the 2.4 Ghz band.  Even when I don't know what that means.    Can you help me?  I do not know the printer Canon MG 5720 I bought does not work and I need to just throw it out.  I want to not to make another mistake.

    Thanks if anyone can help.

    On your Mac...

    Open Finder > Applications > utilities > AirPort Utility

    Click on the image of The AirPort Extreme

    Click Edit in the window that appears

    Click on the Wireless tab at the top of the next window

    Click on the button Options Wireless at the bottom of the next window

    Click to enter a check mark in the name of 5 GHz box

    Click Save



    Click Update at the bottom right of the next window and give the airport a minute full for restart

    The name of your normal wireless network is now a 2.4 GHz signal only.  The other wireless network has "5 GHz" appended to the name, so it's 5 GHz network

    Connect the printer to the 2.4 GHz network

    The name of '5 GHz' added now is the network of 5 GHz. connect devices in this band for a faster connection.

  • Want to 750-209: how to connect an old sound system to a new computer

    I wanted a new 750-209 and a former speaker of Cambridge Soundworks PCWorks 19th Point Surround 4 + under low voltage. There are 2 connector; Left and right who are article 3 (each take manages 3 drivers). The envy has 1 output. It seems that I need a derivation ending in female connectors.

    My question? How to connect the two? Is it still possible? I'd hate to have a decent sound system of junk. My needs are basic - just to be able to listen on AOL or YouTube.

    Any ideas on how to accomplsh my goal.

    Just to close this debate; unfortunaely the quick response has not responded to the problem. BestBuy has suggested that I try a composed of derivation of a shot and 2 containers. Finally, I got the system works 'after' discovery that the enormous power brick disliked the new arrangement of power when I replaced the old computer with the desire. I had to replace an adapter 3 - wat and consolidate the brick. A lot of noise to get her old system to work but now I have the choice of speakers or headphones driven by a hold on a HDMI monitor. All's well that ends well. Thanks for the interest.

  • 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.

    Hello

    I guess your printer takes only supported a parallel port and uses the parallel cable, but you do not find these ports on the Satellite. Am I wrong?

    Well, my old printer DeskJet 840C uses the same cable that your and I had the same problem with my newest Satellite phone. My old laptop supports the parallel port.

    However, I just bought a USB-> parallel port adapter and it works. But I recommend to test the adapter first because not all working correctly.
