Exrteme AC WAN slow airport

Hello

I encountered the following problem:

If I test my internet connection directly with PPOE connection since my MacbookPro get 900MB or more download speed.

If I'm testing with the router (with the same cable) I get only 250 MB speed.

Any ideas what might be the problem? As far as I know this model has 1gbit WAN port.

Thank you very much

Zoltan

Any ideas what might be the problem? As far as I know this model has 1gbit WAN port.

Yes, it is... but NAT in router is not powerful enough to manage gigabit connections...

I'd say you're still shy of the number... I expect about 400-450Mbps as the best, that the processor can handle without hardware NAT.

The problem is firmware Apple removes material NAT... and without it the speed decreases considerably... but you probably other things running that is causing slow downs.

Apple Airport extreme is in the list... a long long way down. Place about 80... with prices upwards... the design is now 4 years old and simple fact is that they have been exceeded on all fronts.

    It takes at least 2 minutes for my financial Institute page load.  If I use wireless xfinity that loading of the page immediately.  Not sure why this is happening?

    What is the best way to configure my airport extreme?

    The router itself would not necessarily slow down access to certain sites. Most likely, it is the DNS servers that you might have the problem. By default, any router will assign those servers of the ISP. You can work around these and use all the others that are available such as those proposed by Google or OpenDNS, to name a few.

    To help find what DNS servers provide the best performance, compared to the servers of your ISP, you can try a program like Namebench.

    Once you determine which ones you need, you can change the settings for your AirPort Extreme using AirPort Utility as follows:

    • Run the utility on your MBP AirPort.
    • Select the AirPort Extreme and then, select change.
    • Select the Internet tab.
    • Enter the DNS servers you want in the fields "DNS servers".
    • Click Refresh.

    In the image below, I entered the OpenDNS servers IP addresses.

  • Use WAN connected airport Time Capsule as a wireless access point

    I had to replace a failed 4 Gen Time Capsule. I tried to install a new Gen 5 airport TimeCapsule via WAN and set up the airport to act as a wireless access point. It is installed in an area of my house with wireless coverage. In the network of AirPort Utility Mode section, I chose "extend a wireless network. The TC is restarted, I get an error message cannot find the intended wireless network.

    What I lack?

    "Extend a wireless network" is a parameter that is only used if the time Capsule need to connect to another router from Apple with the help of a Wi-Fi connection.

    You use Ethernet to connect, you must use the parameter to "create a wireless network. Use the same wireless network name and the same password as your "primary" router

  • AirPort Extreme Base Station 4th Gen

    Hi all

    I have an AirPort Extreme Base Station renovated 4th Gen router connected to a modem Arris SB6141 cable.  I had this AEBS for almost 5 years with no problems.  Last night, we had severe weather in the region and almost immediately after a lightning strike extremely close, our internet came out.  Service was also restored and our modem works properly.  However the AEBS is orange with intermittent flashing green.  When I opened the AirPort Utility to diagnose and fix the problem, I was prompted to connect the Ethernet cable to the AEBS.  All cables/cords are connected and secure.  I cycled power on all equipment, tried different cables and even performed a hard reset on the AEBS, and again, it won't recognize the cable Ethernet is plugged.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I guess you have tried another Ethernet cable between the modem and AirPort Extreme... and if this is the case, the storm produced a wave that damaged the port WAN on AirPort Extreme... even if the modem cannot have been hit.

    All you can do is try a Factory default Reset on the AirPort Extreme several times to see if that could help. Good luck!

  • Garage double NAT & DHCP - bridge Possible issue error

    Help...

    So it's my game on a yacht...

    I have a MacMini (run bootcamp Windows 7 Pro), so actually it's a PC.

    • I use internal WiFi adapter of the MacMini to get my internet connection of various different Marina I could stay in
    • I then share the connection with the internal LAN adapter WiFi adapter WiFi
    • This allows me to share the WiFi port with other devices on the yacht

    Then I have an AirPort Extreme-

    • I then run an Ethernet on the MacMini Port CAT6 cable
    • on port WAN on AirPort Extreme
    • AirPort Extreme now has an internet connection (from the marina, WiFi)
    • I then activated the WiFi on AirPort Extreme to create a WiFi network on the yacht
    • and it gets its internet connection from the WAN port, which comes in turn the MacMini, which in turn comes from the Marina WiFi

    Connected to the AirPort Extreme are-

    -iPhones, iPads, MacBook, Apple TV, Smart TV, etc etc.

    -Some devices are connected using the LAN ports and AirPort Extreme cable

    -Some devices are connected by WiFi using WiFi airports

    I want DHCP to be handled by the AirPort Extreme-, mode I set as "DHCP and NAT".

    What is the problem-

    • AirPort Extreme shows an error
    • "double NAT and DHCP.
    • and suggested I turn it in Bridge mode
    • but I don't want to do that

    Any thoughts?

    Concerning

    Tim

    Would help if we could get the exact message you see.  You will probably need to change the DHCP-range on the AirPort Extreme to a different value, and then use the option 'Ignore' the Double NAT then the airport will show a green light.

    You will have to live with the Double NAT if you want AirPort Extreme to act as a remote router that provides a private network.

  • Why is my slower than wifi ethernet download speed when using the airport extreme?

    Hi all

    This is my first post here, so please bear with me. I currently own stunted 2011 Macbook Pro 13 inch and an extreme A1521 from the airport. My ISP has promised 50Mbps downloading and sending 10 Mbps. When I connect my MPro via ethernet/wi-fi to my modem I get as promised. When I connect my MPro via wi - fi to the extreme I get 48Mbps download download 9Mbps and it's ok. However, when I connect my MPro via ethernet to extreme I get 8-9Mbps download and 9Mbps. Anyone know how to fix this?

    If you check the 'fine print', your ISP has promised "up to" 50 Mbit/s and 'up to' 10Mbps.  The ISP might provide more than that during periods of slow activity, like the days of the week during the day, but much less during evenings when there are many more users on the Internet.

    When I connect my MPro via ethernet/wi-fi to my modem I get as promised

    I assume that you meant to check the Ethernet connection, you disable WiFi on Mac when you do this. And unplug the Ethernet cable when you check the speed of the WiFi, correct?

    If so, this tells you that the Ethernet port to both the modem and the Mac work properly, and WiFi work correctly as well.

    When I connect my MPro via wi - fi to the extreme I get 48Mbps download download 9Mbps and it's ok.

    If this tells you that the Ethernet connection between the modem and the AirPort Extreme works correctly, and wireless works fine on the AirPort Extreme.

    However, when I connect my MPro via ethernet to extreme I get 8-9Mbps download and 9Mbps.

    Well, you know that the Ethernet connection between the modem and AirPort Extreme works because you can register 48 Mbps Wireless.

    Thus, the possibilities are narrowed to two elements at this stage:

    (1) the Ethernet cable is defective or making intermittent contact. Try another Ethernet cable, to ensure.

    (2) If you have turned off AirPort Extreme and rebooted several times, and you know that the cable between the Mac and AirPort Extreme works properly, then you have reduced the question down to the Ethernet on the AirPort Extreme, which is probably defective switch.

    If you have not already done so, try other ports Ethernet on the AirPort Extreme.

    As a last resort, perform a reset material on AirPort Extreme and put up again. To perform the Hard Reset... power on AirPort Extreme for a few minutes, then hold it pushed in the reset button on the back of the unit (near the AC power plug) for 7-8 seconds and release. Allow a minute for the AirPort Extreme restart orange light flashing slow.

    I once went through two consecutive airport extremes with the same question about 8 months ago, so it can happen.

    If you're still having problems, then it is time to take the AirPort Extreme of Apple Store... If you have one near you... or contact the Apple Support directly by clicking on 'Contact the Support' in the upper right area of this web page.

    Good luck!

  • Slow wifi transfer rates with Airport Extreme network.

    I have an Airport extreme Rev 5 and am trying to transfer files between 2 Mac on the network. Everything works fine, but the transfer speed is only about 2.5 meg per second. Should get more than that?

    Everything works well, I get my full bandwidth from my ISP (11.8 Mbps) when downloading via wifi, it s just during the transfer of files within the wifi network that things are slowing down.

    Thanks for any help

    Tim

    Wireless is inefficient when you double jump... This means that... both computers are transfer of files via the Wi - Fi because wireless deals actually double the packages... So he immediately reduces speed by 50%.

    Let us ensure that we are using right units first.

    1. your download from the internet is measured in bits per second... Please use b for forests.

    2. your file transfer is measured in bytes per second... Please use B for bytes.

    So, if you look at the monitor of activity... a copy of computer file wireless to NAS (ethernet) ran at 38-40 MB/s

    If I transfer to another computer that is also the wireless speed would be halved. Or worse... (see below, even with AC wireless is far worse) depends on the slower links.

    So how do you measure the speed of file transfer and is it bits or bytes per second?

    What is the speed of connection on each computer.

    Hold down the option key and click on the fan wireless.

    You can see that this computer has a 450Mbps link speed... It will never transfer files to that more than half, but you wait for connections at full speed to get the best links.

    My new computer...

    So if I transfer the computer file to another, it looks like this.

    Even with that wireless, it's much slower than the SIN that has ethernet and spinning drive... The computer has SSD.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • the Airport extreme, giving a slow wifi connection

    Hello

    I've got my download speed of 200 Mbps cable company. I checked a good signal by plugging directly in he back of the Modem (to remove the photo Airport extreme wifi.) ... I have 221Mbps actually...

    However, once I'm going to plug in the Airport Extreme and text my speed on wifi, I get only between 24 Mbps or max after several trials of 54 Mbps on download... I should get just under 200 Mbit/s because of the normal fall through wifi... However, not to the extreme I loss I get...

    Tuesday Apple Support has helped me to perform a reboot of the router and I have been good to get 198Mbps... It is here 2 days later and I'm back down to 24 Mbps...

    I tried to redo the reboot: unplug the unit, hold down the reset button, then while holding down the reset button, add power on and continue now stuck until it flashes yellow... But curiously, after it flashes it goes straight to the green... (never asking me to airport utility to add a password)

    My Wifi speed stink...

    What continues with this device... anyone have recommendations?

    I already proved the cable line and the modem (with the support of motorola)...

    Thank you

    Most likely you have a faulty AirPort Extreme. Please ask Apple to replace this unit for you.

    If you wish to renew a reset, follow the instructions very carefully:

    Turning off AirPort Extreme

    Wait 7 - 8 seconds

    Hold the first reset button... and hold in an additional 7 to 8 seconds while simultaneously you reconnect the power on the AirPort Extreme.

    Release the reset button to zero after the period of detention

    Allow a minute for the AirPort Extreme restart. The light will be Orange fixed for 15-20 seconds about, then turn to flashing orange slowly after about 30 seconds

    A slow amber flashing light... about once per second... confirms that the airport has been reset and you can set it up again.

  • Airport express at slow speed of the modem Arris SB6190

    Hello!

    My so-called WIFi Comcast gives me 150Mbps. My test only show 70 or slower speed on a WiFi test. After the call to them they told me to talk to my modems customer service. But their customer service is terrible. Here is my setup and yes everything has been switched off voltage and reset. And Comcast has been created with the modem while the Comcast guy was here. From the start after a few hard reset the express worked. Here's the question and the installation program.

    I have a SB6190 (not wireless), Arris directly connected to my Airport express. The express (which deals with my wireless connection) is connected to a switch (for wired devices). But I think that my problem is the Express. ? Not sure, I guess my question is I do something wrong in public services from the airport with the Express settings? I do not see why I get more 75Mbps wireless. Or maybe Apple if your reading, you can give it a fix on your next update. Hope you can help and thanks!

    Here some thoughts:

    (1) the Airport Express uses 100 ports Ethernet of Mbit/s, so the theoretical maximum speed that could be achieved with an Ethernet or Wi - Fi through the Express would be 100 Mbit / s.

    (2) the Express is not known for his speed wireless. On a connection of 100 Mbps Internet here, I see usually 45 - 50 Mbps at best more wireless, no matter if the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz is used.  Ethernet checks better about 75-80 MB/s to the Express LAN port.

    (3) these are user to user support forums, so it is very unlikely that anyone from Apple will ever see your post. If you want to provide feedback to Apple, you can do so here: Apple Apple - AirPort Express - Feedback will acknowledge receipt of your message, but they will not respond after that.

    (4) the AirPort Express was introduced almost 4 years ago and it's been 2 years that Apple has provided an update firmware for the product, so additional updates are not probably... my opinion.

  • Network slow 2nd Airport Extreme AC reviews

    Hello:

    We have two units of the Airport Extreme AC. One of them (the principal) is connected to our cable modem, and the other (secondary) is connected to the primary via ethernet.  The secondary AC unit allows to extend our networks wireless in another part of our House.  We used the Airport 6.3.6 utility to configure both units in HQ.

    We have three different wireless networks.  One of them is our 5G, the other 2. 4 g, and the third is our network of comments.  5G and 2.4 G networks have the same password, and the guest network has a different password.

    Everything seems to work perfectly, with the exception of the network invited on our secondary AC unit only.  It is very slow; less than 2 Mbps using speedtest.net.  All our other wireless networks (including comments on the primary AC network) to the Internet from 100 Mbps to 200 Mbps speeds.

    A few more details.  Our secondary air conditioning unit is configured in Bridge mode, and it's 'creation' (not extending not) our wireless networks.  This secondary unit was created in this way by the Airport utility.

    Anyone has an idea why our network comments on the secondary AC unit is so slow?

    Thank you!

    It is a problem with the design of the network.

  • Using time capsule secure airport on WAN

    How can I access my Airport Time Capsule remotely?  What I need to 'allow the Setup program on Wan' or can I access it using a VPN and activation of the sharing feature?  If I WAN configuration is it secure?

    "Allow installation over WAN" is necessary only if you want to use AirPort Utility on your Mac from a remote location to access and change the settings of the router from Apple. If you want only remote access to the data on the Time Capsule, you will not have to "allow the Setup program on Wan.

    What is security, it is unlikely that someone else would know the public WAN IP address that your provider is provided for you, but even if they did, they would still have to enter a password for the device to enter the router configuration or access any other devices on your network.

    Apple back to My Mac (BTMM) is by far the easiest game for users to implement with regard to access to the hard drive from a remote location via Internet Time Capsule. For a summary of this installer and other methods to connect to the Capsule remotely, see this excellent tip for expert forum user Tesserax:

    Hello

    Thus, all transfers are done with CIFS are slow and other then CIFS are ok?

    All transfers are between XP/7 and servers (before 2008)?

    Please take a look at http://bit.ly/rkh9IM

    CIFS (or SMB) prior to the 2008 version is slow by definition as it can not cope with very good latency. Other protocols such as HTTP and FTP run much smoother.

    When you run Server 2008 (or better) combination with Windows Vista (or better) should solve some of your problems as it can using SMBv2.

    What actual speed is your order on the MPLS and what is the maximum transfer reached between server and workstation?
