• Extreme drop airport utility but the network still doesn't work?

  Hello

  I hope you can help and I don't know if I'm worried for nothing, but it began to annoy me now.

  First of all the details of my network are as follows:

  Cable modem connection cable-> Cat 6 to airport extreme (new model height) which acts as a router for any network-> Branches out of there at an old airport extreme (flat square one) and new height time capsule.

  Once the old extreme and time capsule are in Bridge mode to extend the network, because they are wired into the new AE.

  This morning was faltering then checked connection airport utility.  Two new AE and TC had the warning triangle and were asking to be "forgotten" to the network.

  Reset the new AE and airport utility picked up so I put up from scratch and has received the green light nice and everything was fine!

  Then implement the TC.  The minute that this was recorded on the network, even in Bridge mode, which suggested the airport utility, the new AE got the dreaded yellow triangle and asked to forget.

  I've done a few times now, step by step, update that I will and I can not all 3 on the network "green lit" as they used to be.  I used the app to radar network and it is smooth or duplicate IP addresses, but most annoying network works like a charm.  The only unit with the appropriate settings for access to the internet is the new AE - all the other boxes are simply fill these parameters therefore, even with the yellow triangle, it always seems to work.

  Am I worry for nothing, or is there something I should be concerned?  An idea is an update which was pushed caused some problems?

  I'm under El Capitan 10.11.6 and 6.3.6 airport utility.

  All iOS devices in the House, running the airport utility in a show the same problem too.

  Thank you

  Ben

  There are many posts here lately related to this.

  A 'solution' refers to those who have set up their base stations for Back to My Mac. If you did, how to follow recommended action is temporarily remove or disable this option, as follows:

  • Run the AirPort Utility.
  • Select the base and then station, select change.
  • On the tab of the Base Station, go back to the section of my Mac at the bottom of the window.
  • If you have entries here, select it and click then the minus sign "-" button to remove it.
  • Click on update and allow the base station restart.

• Airport extreme not recognized by airport utility

  Comcast serves intermittent internet Chronicle, which I think is part of the problem but not all that.  Their router is connected to my Time Capsule., which seems solid, but I've reconfigured several times due to my primary problem.  I bought a new wireless airport extreme (AEX) this year, model A1392 base low, but that has not helped, and in fact the question continues to worsen.  It almost ruined my Christmas day.   I use the AEX to listen to my itunes music on my stereo, as part of the network wifi househol, not a new configuration, and I have another in another room as an Extender that I speak of because it is less important, but has the same problem.  I want my music to work but the AEX continues to fall out of the network.  If I get the orange light flashes the only option I have given is to "Forget this device."  Of course, I wish that gave me the option edit and return to the network, but no.  Forget that the instrument is always bad, because Airport utility will NEVER recognize, any device I restarted many times.  If I go back to the factory settings, utility Airport will allow me to bring back the AEX in my wifi network, but comcast will then intermittent me the new AEX fell, this time with a green light fixed and Airport Utility NEVER acknowledges again.

  I don't know why it should be so difficult.  Apple isn't more fun.  My AEX should integrate easily and always in my wifi network at home.  What is the answer, please?

  What modem router do you have? Make and model please?

  What the Express installation?

  Please give me some screenshots of airport utility showing the contents page and the internet, wireless and network of the tabs.

  Since I understand what is wrong.

  Express does not and was never intended to be used as your main router. This is an auxiliary device to extend wireless, plug in the printer, airplay, etc..

  You more than probably a better router.

• Linking New Extreme old Extreme and Express. New Airport utility does not recognize old Extreme/Express

  I had a linear new extreme connection (connected to the wireless model Cat5) related to the old extreme then Express (newish).

  I would have put in place using airport Utility (for example) 4 years ago and has worked well.

  I changed my wireless modem (formerly broken) but cannot now reconnect the old extreme and express to the extreme again.

  The extreme new connects to internet just fine as long as it is in Bridge mode (does not work in DHCP/NAT mode).

  My real question is the utility software Airport now seems not to recognize the Express extreme or old old to get re-connected.

  The manual of Apple still shows configurations using the old utilitarian approach Airport (with each unit sitting on LHS page)

  If you're still using OS X (10.5.8)... as, you enter in your profile information... then the AirPort Utility in this operating system must be able to recognize the old AirPort Extreme and Express.

  However, if you have updated to a new operating system such as the Mountain Lion (10.8.x), Mavericks (10.9.x), Yosemite (10.10.x) or El Capitan (10.11.x)... and... you have more "round" or version 'dome' in the form of AirPort Extreme, and an old version of the AirPort Express A1084... so, the new version of AirPort Utility is not compatible with older airports.

  So, this would help a lot if we could get clarification from your part...

  (1) what operating system you're using now?  If you are not sure about this, click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click on about this Mac and post back with the Version of OS X number that you see there.

  (2) what version of the AirPort Extreme you may have.  Is it a 'rounder', or 'dome' in the form of version... or... The "flat" or "square" version? If you have flat or square version, the number of model of the device is required. It is on the lower part of the airport, probably integrated in the base of carpet of MOSS. The model number starts with an 'A' follow-up of four digits. Please post back this information.

  (3) what version of AirPort Express you have?  Please look for the model number on the side of the Express. It is difficult to see, with grey lettering in a certain context, so you need to perhaps good lighting and glasses to discern the number of reading.  As extreme, the Express, model number starts with an 'A' followed by four digits. Please post back this information.

  Once we have the information we need, we know more about how to proceed from this point.

• I just upgraded to a pace 5268AC router and can connect is more to my Airport base station. It does not appear in Airport utility. Any suggestions?

  I just upgraded to a pace 5268AC router and can connect is more to my Airport base station. The base station does not appear in Airport utility. Any suggestions?

  Whenever you change the modem or modem/router to which the airport links... or... change your Internet connection process, the airport must be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work with the new device.

  Your message did not mention if you did that, but if not... to perform a Hard Reset on the router of the airport would be the first thing to do, to follow in setting up the airport once again, just as you would if the airport was new and connection to your modem/router for the first time.

• Try to get on my mac airport utility

  AS I am trying to install on my mac airport utility, I get a message saying that it is not supported on the version of Mac OS X. I'm under the last El Capitan 10.11.6. Is the Airport utility not supported in newer versions of OS X?

  Airport utility is included with OS X and is located in the Utilities folder. There is no separate installer for it. If you have deleted or moved, then you can reinstall reinstall OS X.

  Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

  Please make sure that you back up.

  1. Restart the computer. Immediately after that the chime hold down the command and R until the Utility Menu appears.
  2. Select disk utility, then click on the continue button.
  3. Select the withdrawal (usually Macintosh HD) entry of the volume of the list to one side.
  4. Click first aid icon in the toolbar. Wait until the button is active, then click it.
  5. Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.
  6. Select Reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

• AirPort utility no longer displays the strength of connection

  Run the latest version of Airport utility and El Capitan (10.11.3) is no longer the strength of connection for each devices connected to the network. Instead of; Strong, good, fair or poor strength of connection I get now unknown. Does anyone know why this is?

  Bugs in El Capitan.  Maybe Apple will get things corrected in the next update.

• Airport utility cannot find Time Capsule

  Airport utility can't find my Time Capsule.

  I tried to reset (factory settings) several times and then reconfigure TC.

  It works for 2 minutes; the led is green and the TC is visible in AU - but while time Machine is looking for the disc and the preparation of the backup, the disk disappears from the to THE and therefore cannot perform a backup.

  Also, the light is still green after the TC disappears from the AU.

  Could there be a problem with AU?
  Or my TC is all just too old? -I do not know what generation it is, but it's at less than 4 years old, maybe 5.

  I have a MacBook Pro running on El Capitan 2012.

  I hope someone knows how to solve this problem

  Could there be a problem with AU?

  No, Airport utility is very good.

  I have a MacBook Pro running on El Capitan 2012.

  Network problem is common... and it's here... El Capo.

  Or my TC is all just too old? -I do not know what generation it is, but it's at less than 4 years old, maybe 5.

  Possibly in combo with this old CT... What model is the basis... A1xxx?

  Or in Airport utility immediately after a reboot... Hold down the option key and double click on the symbol TC. It will open the summary page with the template at the top.

  Have another go with the installation... See below.

  But tell us what is your provision.

  This modem you... brand / model?

  What the TC set, bridge or router?

  Is the computer connected by ethernet or wireless? Have you tried both?

  Here are my suggestions...

  Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the drive hard in doing so.

  Universal factory reset

  Turning off the TC... That is, remove the power supply cord or the power at the wall outlet, wait 10 seconds... Hold the reset button... be nice... Turn on always even now in reset... and keep holding in for another 10 seconds. You may need assistance because it is difficult to hold in reset and power on. It will show the success quickly flashing led front. Release reset... and wait a few minutes for the TC to reset and return with the factory settings. If the front LED flashes quickly you missed and simply try again. The reset is quite fragile in these... Press the key while it is just click away and not more... I've seen people bend lever or even break. I use a toothpick as a tool.

  NB. None of your files on the hard drive of the TC are removed... This simply clears the settings of the router of the TC.

  The installer the TC.

  And then redo the configuration of the computer with the Mavericks - Yosemite - ElCapo. (MYELCAP)

  1. the use of very short names... NO APPLE RECOMMENDED names. Without the space and pure alphanumeric characters.

  for example TCgen5 for the base station and the name of the TCwifi wireless.

  If the problem is using wireless TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as it also seems to help stop the nonsense. But it can be tried in the second round. IE, plan on a first and second series of changes to fix this... If all goes well... I note other steps can you tour2.

  2. use all passwords also consistent with 1. but maybe a little longer. IE 8 and 20 characters of mixed cases and numbers... no alphanumeric non-caracteres.

  3. If the TC is router, you can ignore this point. It is only a problem when the TC is bridged.

  If ensure that the TC is always the same IP address... you will need to do this on the main router using a dhcp reservation... or a bit more complex setup by using the static IP address in the TC. But it's important for deriving from intellectual property in all directions when MYELCAP do not remember his name for 5 min after a reboot done for poor network management.

  4. check that your share on the computer name does not change... Make sure that it is also in line with the above... short without space and pure alphanumeric... but this change will mess up your TM backup... so be prepared to make a new, full backup. Sorry... keep this one for the second round, if you want to avoid a new backup.

  5 attach the TC disc into the computer manually.

  In Finder, go, connect to the server in the main menu,

  Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever ip of TC is that you made static. It's a default router 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with it unless you know what you're doing).

  You can use the name... SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your name of TC... local is the default domain of the TC and does not change.

  However the names are not so easy as... the IP address nor reliable. They are not at least not in Yosemite. The field can also be a problem if you are not clogged or wireless directly to the Treasury Board.

  6. ensure that IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open network, wireless and Advanced preferences / TCP/IP... and the difficulty of IPv6. link-local only. Do the same for the ethernet if you use it.

  

  It is a lot more jiggery pokery, you can try, but the above is a good start... If you still find not reliable... don't be surprised.

  You may need to do more work on the computer itself. for example, to reset the NVRAM/PRAM/SMC... helped some people. A clean installation of the operating system is also useful if you update installed.

• My AirPort Extreme end not implemented with the help of AirPort Utility

  Bought a used AirPort Extreme (Genesis 4) of a person who showed me that he worked at home. When I try to set up as a Wireless extender to my last existing AirPort Extreme, he will not carry out synchronization upward with AirPort Utility. It appears as a new extreme, but get a message 'unexpected error' before or after the name. Have you tried to reset the two while it is powered and turning the as explained in the help.

  When I try to set up as a Wireless extender...

  Gen 4 airport will connect to your existing AirPort Extreme wireless... or... it will connect using wired Ethernet wired, Permanent?

  .. .it will not accomplish the synchronization upward with AirPort Utility.

  Which version of AirPort Utility?  If it's on your Mac... and you don't know what version you have...

  Open AirPort Utility

  Click the AirPort Utility menu in the upper left corner of the screen

  Click on about AirPort Utility

  Report on the version number you see here

  You have an iPhone or a handy iPad that could be used to implement the 4th Gen airport if the problems continue with the help of your Mac?

• Airport Utility/Airport Express

  I have an old Airport Extreme and an old Airport Express with the Express connected via powerline and as an access point and using the same SSID as the end.

  The system actually works very well, but my question relates to Airport utility, namely that the Express appears in THE time time, has a Mark Green beside him for awhile, then the exclamation mark in a yellow triangle telling me it "was" part of my network but it is is no longer accessible.

  This depends on the sound being defined as an access point, or is it just a quirk that I should live with?  Have a system that works, but is not able to check by the utility Airport is a minor and of course much better than the reverse drawback but I'm curious to know why this is happening.  Thank you

  AirPort Utility is based on both the mDNS (aka, Hello) and IPv6 IP protocols to find an AirPort base station. Don't forget that both of your AirPort base stations more iMac are configured for IPv6 link-local only.

  • For a Mac: System preferences > network > Wi - Fi or Ethernet > advanced > TCP/IP tab > configure IPv6: link-local only
  • For the AirPort Base Station:
    Note: You may temporarily connect your Mac or PC directly to the base by Ethernet station to access.
    • From a Mac: AirPort Utility > select the base station > change > Internet tab > Internet Options... > configure IPv6: link-local only
    • Since an iOS device: AirPort Utility > tap the base station > press Edit > tap Advanced > tap on IPv6 > change configure IPv6 to: link-local only > Tap actually

  For mDNS, it is a matter of "all or nothing" since OS X Mavericks. Unfortunately, there is no real settings, you can change this.

  Some references for more information:

  • Base station airPort not seen or "an unexpected error has occurred" appears in point 6.3 AirPort Utility -Apple Support
  • AirPort base station does not appear in the 1.3 AirPort Utility for iOS -Apple Support

  Hello

  My Macbook Pro OS is El Captain worm 10.11.6

  Airport utility is worm 6.3.6

  2 x last Airport extreme firmware ver 7,7,7 connected by ethernet, one in bridged mode, another DHCP server.

  When I wake up my macbook and logon, then open Airport utility, both extremes have an exclamation point and the light orange, the message that opens essentially said along the lines of the device not found or not connected and there is a button to Forget. BUT the network works fine. This does not happen on my iPad. It looks like a bug to me, or is there a solution?

  We have seen the problems of this kind in recent weeks, but I think that it has been corrected by Apple. However, by chance you have one or both of your base station configured to use your Apple for Back to My Mac ID? If so, disable it to see if that fixes the problem.

  If this isn't the case, we can try other things.

• Cannot find the Airport Express Airport utility

  Hello

  I have a firmware running extreme Airport 7.6.7. 6.3.6 and one Airport utility Terminal Airport Express (model A1392). I have access to my system on a Macbook pro. Also have the app on my iPhone.

  My Airport Express and extreme talked to each other and have been broadcast on the Airport utility. However, I had to change my wifi password and the network password. After that, the Airport extreme restarted. After the reboot, my Express was no longer recognized by my network. The Express has a light orange and blinks repeatedly. I can't connect to the express to address the issue of amber light.

  I have read many posts on the forum. However, I still have to find a solution. How to connect the airport utility to the Airport express?

  Thanks for any help, you can make it,

  You have changed the password for WiFi on AirPort Extreme... but... the AirPort Express Terminal was previously programmed to connect by using your password in the "old".  The Express is lost, unable to find the network at all and doesn't know what to do.

  You can help the AirPort Express by doing a hard reset on the AirPort Express to clear the old network settings and passwords, and then configure the Express again to connect to your network 'nine' with the 'new' password.

  After the back if you don't know how to proceed.

• Airport utility cannot find the time Capsule, but wireless is fine

  All of a sudden my TC stopped taking backups but the wireless works fine.

  Airport utility stopped recognizing the TC suddenly...

  I think it started acting weird it's because last night, I unplugged the TC of the socket directly instead of turn off... This could be the problem.

  This is what, in my view, that the solution could be:

  (1) reboot Macbook

  (2) open Airport utility

  File 3)--> set up

  (4) now he would invite, address and password: especially it would be 10.0.0.1, but you get to the option + wifi

  (5) then just tweak a setting so that the update button is highlighted...

  6) click on update & the router restarts

  (7) Viola you should now see the airport in airport utility.

  I hope this helps. I tried to put that answer in another thread, but the forum has been locked for discussion... That's why this new post

  Thank you

  Bumblebee

  It is not so rosy, as you described!

  I can write in folders on Time Capsule, I use internet, but the utility does not see the drives, printer and Time Machine is no more support for MacBook...

  The only reason for this behavior is dynamic DNS change the LAN iP addresses... after the router has been reset by the network provider.

  Any advice, please?

• Airport utility show that airport extreme has a problem, but it remains inaccessible

  My Airport extreme began to play up.  As you can see in the picture, it seems to have a problem and cannot be opened for editing.  I tried several times to do a hard reset and reinstall my setup.  It works and the network remains functional, but after a few minutes, the Base Station will appear with this warning sign.  Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  

  A 'solution' refers to those who have set up their base stations for Back to My Mac. If you did, how to follow recommended action is temporarily remove or disable this option, as follows:

  • Run the AirPort Utility.
  • Select the base and then station, select change.
    • Note: You may need to use the option "configure others...". "to access the base station. Enter the IP address of the base station, the default value is: 10.0.1.1 and base station administrator password when you are prompted.
  • On the tab of the Base Station, go back to the section of my Mac at the bottom of the window.
  • If you have entries here, select it and click then the minus sign "-" button to remove it.
