  That's kind of how count you...

  But if your AE running 7.6.4 firmware it is Wireless N...

  A look at the base of the number. It is on the first line of molded rubber or paper label. A1408 is Gen5.

  Now for a piece of info you don't want to know.

  Apple does not support the time machine is a model AE before last Gen6. A lot of people use it, but it can be unreliable... people have a different experience. Just to note that it is not taken in charge and reliability might be good bad or anywhere between the two... Ask yourself how useful is a backup that is not reliable.

• 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.

• Time Machine can't find my Airport Extreme disk

  I have a 3 TB Airport Extreme connected via USB to my iMac.  iMac is El Capitan (10.11.6) running my iMac is a mid-2007.  When I try to set up Time Machine to back up on the AE, it does not offer me EI in option for a backup drive.  In fact, when I look on the Finder, I don't see not EI there either.  What's wrong?

  The USB port on an AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule of airport is here to add an additional hard drive for storing data... or... a compatible USB printer.

  The USB port can be used to connect a Mac or any other computer.

  Instead, your Mac connects to the airport using the wireless or if you want a wired connection, it's via an Ethernet cable.

  AirPort Extreme is not an internal hard drive at all, so you could say you have a 3 TB Time Capsule airport, which does not have an internal hard drive.  Please specify if you have additional questions.

• Not find extreme airport in airport utility

  I can't find the logo of my Airport extreme in the airport utility application, in Mac OS and iOS.

  I have an airport express and Airport extreme, which linked together in the bridge. Airport extreme is the main router that connected from the internet with a modem. The Airport express from Airport extreme to my top floor. All internet works fine. However, I don't find the logo of my Airport extreme in the airport utility application, in both Mac OS and iOS.

  Turn about your Airport Extreme for 15 seconds and then power back on. As soon as you see the green light, you should be able to see him for a minute or two in the Airport utility. In the affirmative, and see if you have Back to My Mac active. If so, disable it by removing all the e-mail addresses of the back section of my Mac. Then update your Airport Extreme. Work quickly.

  Many have started having this problem within the last week, probably because Apple changed something in its servers CCMM. A real difficulty would come from Apple, but it should work if you currently have active CCMM.

• Cannot find the airport and cannot reset to factory settings

  I have a 2 TB Time Capsule airport who unfortunately through a handful of the network changes, somewhere along the lines, I pressed "forget the device" and now for the life of me, I can't connect to it.

  I'm unable to reset to factory settings, because I have about 1 GB of data and Time Machine backups on it.  Is it possible can recover and make it visible again so I can continue with my backups, without reset it completely?

  Reset time Capsule, regardless of the type of reset you, affects all data stored on the internal hard drive of the TC.

• The Airport 5.6.1 (10 Windows) utility cannot find Airport Extreme Base Station

  I have the Airport Extreme Base Station (model A1408) model.

  I'm under Apple Airport Utility 5.6.1 on Windows 10.

  10 Windows Firewall is disabled.

  All of my WiFi devices, including my Windows laptop, 10, all work fine on the wireless network, and the light on the base station is green.

  Life seems good... EXCEPT, when I run the utility Apple Airport (version 5.6.1) it says it's "impossible to find wireless Airport". Clicking on Rescan is fixed not. Power by bicycle to the base station doesn't fix it. It worked before, so this is the behavior seems to be somewhat intermittent. Lately, it doesn't quite work. So I can't reconfigure my base station.

  Is this a known issue? Y at - it a known solution?

  First of all, understand that the AirPort for Windows utility has not been updated since Windows 7. It 'works' on later versions of Windows, including Windows 10, but is not designed to work with the new 802.11ac base stations.

  We'll see if this utility is installed correctly on your computer.

  For Windows 8, 8.1, or 10, AirPort for Windows utility will work have two applications listed in the window Apps & features: 1) airport & 2) Hello.

  • Move or delete the file next to the C:\Windows\System32 folder: c:\windows\system32\dnssd.dll (Note: this is the Client Hello library and is required by the utility AirPort.) If this file is missing would be the main reason that you aren't able to find the base station. However, even if it is present, it cannot be properly registered in the Windows registry. In other words, Windows is concerned, there is no.)
  • Download AirPort for Windows install.
  • Run the Setup program by using privileges "Run as administrator". (Note: If you have the option to repair or uninstall, choose the option to uninstall.) To complete the uninstall process. The Hello application should now be missing in Apps & features list.)
  • If you do not dialogue to repair/Uninstall window, then let Setup install AirPort for Windows in its default folder.

  Then, make sure your computer cable or wireless network adapter is configured for IPv6.

  Now, try to access the base station with the utility again.

• Time capsule works bur airport utility cannot find it

  Hello world

  I have a weird problem with my Time Capsule (2 TB) 2015

  I have the TC connected by ethernet to a modem, and it is plugged into my mac mini (cable as well)

  The TC works very well, it is accessible from the Finder, Time Machine works fine and all my devices can browse the internet via the TC wifi network.

  Airport utility, that the TC is shown as connected with a green dot, however when I try to access the settings of TC, that the system requires a password and when I entered it nothing happens. If I click on the TC once again, I get a requirement pw again. Once I do this once or twice, the TC greys out on airport utility and I get the message "device not found" with the yellow triangle.

  Despite this, the TC is always accessible from the Finder, the wifi works and Time machine is ok.

  Tries to access the site of the iPad or the iPhone displays the same behavior, the utility will continue to ask for a password and it won't let me.

  I did a reset of the TC by pressing the reset button and it worked fine for 24 hours, after which the above problem happened again.

  So I did another reset and even once, he worked for a while, but now I'm at square one.

  Is that what is anyone able to help?

  Thank you

  AirPort Utility is based on both the mDNS (aka, Hello) and IPv6 IP protocols to find an AirPort base station.

  When access to the airport through the AirPort Utility, try the following, in order, accessibility with the utility check after each step:

  • Check the local connection. If you try to access the airport wireless, make sure that you are connected to its wireless network before running the AirPort Utility to administer it. If you are still unable to access it with the utility, temporarily connect your computer directly using an Ethernet cable to one of the base station's LAN ports.
  • Make sure that the base station and your computer 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:
      • 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
  • The base station power cycle. Remove the power branch of the socket adapter and then wait 15 seconds before plugging back in.
  • Perform a ' default ' reset on the base station.

• Can't find the wireless Airport device?

  I just bought a new Airport Extreme. I am able to connect to all my other computers to this new Airport Extreme except an old Power PC G4 Mac Pro which I still occasionally use. Before this new Airport Extreme, I was able to connect this Power PC G4 Mac Pro to the previous-generation Airport Extreme. When I go to the Airport on the Power PC utility it does not have the new Airport Extreme. I tried to restart the PC to power, but that did not help. Can someone tell me what I should do to get this connected PC power?

  Thanks for the help.

  Lou

  When I go to the Airport on the Power PC utility it does not find new Airport Extreme

  You would not use AirPort Utility to connect to the old AirPort Extreme Power PC.   AirPort utility is only used to install and configure the router to the airport... and you have already done this.

  The G4 would connect just like any other wireless device connects to a wireless network. Select the network and enter the password to connect if requested.

  If the old computer still does not connect, it is possible that security on the old computer's wireless settings are not compatible with the security settings higher than more recent that the newer routers use these days.

• AirPort Extreme does not appear in the Finder.

  I can't connect to the Internet and the configuration of the AirPort Extreme using AirPort Utility. Yet I can't find the AirPort Extreme on Finder. It gets frustrating because I use a disk external DRIVE plugged into the USB Extreme preferred airport for backups with Time Machine.

  I tried my network power cycle but nothing has been fixed. Any help?

  The base station itself appear not in the Finder. To access a connected drive, use the connection to the server command in the menu go to, provide the IP address of the base station, and where applicable, check the boxes in the general and tabs box preferences from the Finder for her.

• AirPort Express is no show in the utility AP

  Airport Express 1264 does not appear in the chart of AirPort Utility.

  I had my time airport Capsule (3rd generation) running for years.

  Buy a model 1264 1st Gen Airport Express to extend the system.

  CAT6 used to connect Express to Time Capsule but Express is a utility AirPort show

  Not connected Express directly to Mac-Mini photo express is a show.

  2 days, I played and I tried many internet configuration scenarios.

  Can you help me or would it be better to mix the 1264 and buy another Express?

  Thanks in advance,

  Mike

  AirPort Utility is based on both the mDNS (aka, Hello) and IPv6 IP protocols to find an AirPort base station.

  I suggest that you check that your Mac mini is configured for, at least, only link-local IPv6 mode. To do:

  • Run system preferences > network > select depending on how you connect your mini to the network Ethernet or Wi - Fi
  • Select Advanced
  • Configure IPv6: Link-local only
  • Click OK.
  • Click on apply.

• 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

• Airport Extreme and Broadband Modem/Router

  I have my Airport Extreme (5th generation) plugged into a Broadband Modem/Router combo. I would like to have both able to use their wireless capabilities. The Airport Extreme has been previously connected to a Modem broadband all my IP addresses came by Airport Extreme (192.168.2. *). With the New Modem/Router combo broadband, it uses 10.0.0 * so I would be able to use Airport Extreme to add the 192.168.2. * While having the 10.0.0. * the Broadband Modem/Router combo.

  Is this possible and, if so, how do I configure Airport Extreme to do?

  Normally, you don't want two devices on the same network as the two try to act as routers to the same network. Which will produce conflicts of IP addresses... which can possibly be addressed... and a Double NAT problem, which cannot.

  The Double NAT error can cause a number of unpredictable issues... things like the problems of communication between the devices on the network, slow navigation... or, not navigation in the case of certain websites, Internet access slower, to name a few.

  Yes, some users may get away with a Double NAT on a single home network, but unnecessarily complicating things over a network is normally something you want to avoid.

  We do not recommend it, but if you really want AirPort Extreme for use range 192.168.2.x however, you can easily make this change using AirPort Utility. If you are not sure how to do this and need help, then we will need to know which version of AirPort utility you are using.

  To find, open AirPort Utility, and then click the menu of AirPort Utility in the far left of the screen corner. Click on about AirPort Utility to see what version you have and post back with that info.

  After finding my Airport Express 802.11n flashing yellow I unplugged and then plugged back.  Green light came.  Then nothing would print to my HP

  How your HP Officejet printer is connected to the terminal of the AirPort Express base station... by Ethernet, USB, or wireless? If you run the HP utility on your PC from Win10, can we find the printer? The 6500 is NOT an AirPrint-compatible printer. You should not be able to print from an iOS to this printer device.

• Get airport utility to forget the other devices on the network view

  Hello

  Is it possible to get the Airport utility to forget other devices, it's on the graphic display? I live on a college campus so it displays about 15 other aircraft from the airport in the vicinity of my home and I would like to see it just mine! When I was updating the name and password on my base station, Airport utility gave me the option when I clicked on the other devices to 'Forget' them, but as soon as I close, then reopen the Airport utility all return and the only option I have to then when I click on another device must enter the password for it (which of course) ", I do not have).

  Outside him cluttering up the graphic display, I wonder whether, if all these devices are recognized as part of 'My network', is sometimes interfere with my access internet and wi - fi as the speed and the same connection seem to go up and down like a yo-yo (sometimes up to 90 Mbps but also weaker than 0.05 Mbps - less than the old dial-up!). I have been informed by our IT Department University detects a problem with your local network, it can "bleached you' which cuts or slows down your connection into a net - and if all these devices are considered by Airport utility as part of my network so I'm guessing that a problem in one of the base stations that could affect the rest.

  So, is it possible to get just the Airport utility will display only my own base station (Airport Extreme) over a wi - fi (Airport Express) extension?

  Excellent question...

  First airport utility keeps a history of all the airports that he never sees and even if you select forget he never forgets... you need to dip down and remove the plist... as with all things Mac.

  / Users/youusername/Library/Application Support/Apple/AirPort/SavedTopos/Topo-nIfc=en0,nHsh=00000000.plist

  There are a lot of them dated for every time the network topography change. Close airport utility and delete the entire lot... a new will be created when you restart.

  What OS you are using... There is an option... but I'm not sure it works... to show only devices you set up.

  So, open airport utility preferences. Click monitor airport basestations for problems... then don't watch that airport base stations which I configured... Tell me what happened to him.

  

  Outside him cluttering up the graphic display, I wonder if, if all these devices are recognized as part of 'my network ',.

  No, it's just the airport utility is a bit too excitable to find other airports of apple around the place and wants to watch all the...

  They are not part of your network... but in small areas Wireless will cause problems... it, without doubt. Most of the colleges banning people who run their own wireless routers because the result is what you feel... CHAOS.

  There are 3 channels for 2.4 ghz and perhaps 6 or 7 for 5 GHz Wireless AC must so much bandwidth, you have more than 3 or 4 channel without overlap... This means that for every 3 airports you have exhausted all channels... (and all airports after it's battery on the mill).

  15 other aircraft from the airport in the vicinity of my home

  So that means at least 5 airports are run on the same channel you are on average. Wireless was never designed to ensure that the density of life. It's only the airports... think how no apple routers wireless there's around you that are not displayed.

  Open any program wireless diagnostic... There is a built-in to your Mac. see how many names wireless mac can pick up.

  I highly recommend that you stick to the use of the 5 GHz band using a different name... and choose depending on the channel works best for you. No Auto and just stick...

  You'll never find that it works without problems... but there is no doubt that life is easier if people started to build a faraday cage to live in or used ethernet.
