• Network configuration of Roaming Wifi problem I just bought an Airport Extreme and I intend to use it as my router

  I just bought a refurbished Airport Extreme and I intend to use it as my router & combine with our old time Capsule of existing one to create a roaming Wifi network.

  The new Airport Extreme (renovated) is in my studio/Office - directly connected to our internet broadband wireless (WAN port)

  Our small ethernet is connected to my iMac [mid 2010 running OSX 10.11.5] & a PC and extends up to 2 other domains through an ethernet switch.

  This configuration works very well, our internet speed has improved slightly - better than our old T-Link router bit.  WiFi available throughout the House - better on one side.

  Time Capsule (2 TB) is connected by ethernet on the far side of the House, offer backup Time Machine and strong Wifi to this area.

  This time Capsule was an existing installation that went perfectly with the T-Link before I bought the Airport Extreme.

  I used the Airport utility to set everything up and it seems to work.

  The problem is:

  Combines the Capsule and extreme connected & active, the Internet gradually slows down and grinds to stop. -Wifi seems to follow suit, but is much more gradual.

  If I disable the Time Capsule, the internet connection is back to normal, Airport Extreme Wifi signal is strong and extends to almost all areas.

  I got to the departure of the two units configuration problems, so I reset both factory default and from that moment managed to do all this work - with the exception that the internet connection slows down.  Whenever I visit a different web site, it takes more time to load/link upward.

  I spoke with our ISP, the link to our tower is solid. The technology suggested that I put Wifi on each unit to use a different channel (2 frequencies & several channels each available).

  So far, this has not resolved the problem, I will continue to make adjustments.

  I googled this - most of the answers are not to date - usually 2012, 13, 14. and not directly related to my situation.  But I will continue my search.

  I'd appreciate if anyone here has any suggestions

  What is the number and the model of the modem or modem/router that your ISP has provided you?

  Should we assume that you use a Mac with the help of a current or recent operating system?

  If you get out of the Capsule of time and leaves disabled for now, the network AirPort Extreme continue to run at full speed for a few hours and not slow down?

  We ask these questions because we must first confirm that the AirPort Extreme works properly until we can begin to troubleshoot the connection to Time Capsule.

• I use Airport extreme and cable Airport Express to extend my wireless network.

  My new laptop running windows 7 connects to the extreme, no problem. When I go to my store it will connect to the express. I have a laptop more XP and it links the two places without problem. I also have an Ipad3 which connects without a problem.

  Setting up a wireless network

• I have older Airport Extreme and Express but I now want to set up a new router Airport.

  I have an old Airport Extreme as my main hard wired (ethernet connected) router and an Express that I use as wifi Wireless extender.   Now, I want to set up a new Airport (probably Extreme) router and use the old Airport extreme as extender wifi hard wired (ethernet cable).

  I know that I have to reset the old default airport routers. But, how I do this and please start from there and the beginning, their reset and then up to the new Airport base station and then configure the older router to use with the new? Please be detailed, step by step and attach written instructions or places that I can get the instructions.

  What exact models are each of your airport base stations? Once we have this information, we can help you get your properly configured access point.

• Expand my network using the extreme and Express

  I am currently working on installing wifi in a very big house.  I have an Airport Extreme, also located as possible with multiple Airport Express branching.  There is always a part of the House that receives no signal wifi however.  Here's my question: is - it possible with this configuration, to add another extreme from the Airport via the ethernet connection in where the extreme original is located at a location between the extreme original and the section that does not have WiFi, then plug an express airport out of the extreme (cable) second?  running ethernet all the way, he will not be able to happen and ethernet over powerline adapters not working already on this distance.

  Is it possible with this configuration, to add another extreme from the Airport via the ethernet connection in where the extreme original is located at a location between the extreme original and the section that does not have WiFi, then plug an express airport out of the extreme (cable) second?

  Sure. Run the cable from one of the LAN <>- ports on your "main" AirPort Extreme to the "O" WAN port on the AirPort Extreme distance.

  Use Apple install "wizard" to configure the remote AirPort Extreme "extend using Ethernet" and it automatically adapts the AirPort Extreme to use the same wireless network name being the "main" extreme.  The following example shows an AirPort Express... you would see an AirPort Extreme on your screen during installation.

  

  The AirPort Express's power off, wait a few seconds, then it to power up. It will then pick up the signal from the closest AirPort Extreme.

• set up a branch to the main ethernet using Airport Extreme network

  Could someone help me with this network configuration please?

  I rent an office and we have an ethernet cable coming into our building to the main network (a fiber broadband building next door). The ethernet line give you IP addresses and internet link.

  I would like to set up our own network in our building-

  1 / would put an Airport Extreme there is the ethernet cable and then plug the cable into the WAN port

  2 / I would implement the EA to distribute IP addresses, but using a different pool - so if the main building uses 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.256, I would be created my AE to use 10.1.1.1 to 10.1.1.256

  3 / I would then run an ethernet cable between the port LAN on EI to my Netgear 24 port switch.

  4 / I would connect all our other airport extreme and express again our Ethernet switch and put them all to 'bridge mode '. The switch ethernet cables may be connected to the WAN ports on these airports.

  Anyone see any problem here? We would just to have control over our own IP addresses and be able to restart our Airport Extreme, if we must, do not rely on the building next door to the distribution of intellectual property. I know still need to answer on them for the internet connection, but that's fine.

  Thank you!

  It should work. It would be the basis of a network of mobile type.

  A word of caution. With the exception of the "main" AirPort Extreme that performs as a router, connect the other base stations using their respective ports of LAN. We found some inconsistencies when a base station is in bridge mode and the connection is their WAN port.

• 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.

• Xfinity X 1 modem/router is compatible with the Airport Extreme? How it should be configured to maintain my wireless network?

  I got a modem Comcast/Xfinity upgrade. Xfinity X 1 modem/router is compatible with the Airport Extreme? How it should be configured to maintain my wireless network?

  Whenever you change the modem or modem/router on a network, AirPort Extreme will be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work properly with the new modem. For this he would be...

  Turn on AirPort Extreme for a few minutes... If it is not already turned on

  Hold in the reset button on the back of the AirPort Extreme for 7-8 seconds, then release it.

  Allow a minute for the AirPort Extreme restart to a slow, flashing amber light status

  Make sure that an Ethernet cable connects to one of the four LAN <-->Ethernet ports on the modem/router on port WAN "O" on AirPort Extreme

  To start the Setup program, click the WiFi icon at the top of the screen on your Mac and are looking for a list of the new AirPort base station

  Just below that, click directly on the AirPort Extreme and then follow the prompts for configuration "Wizard".

  When you configure AirPort Extreme once again, you can use the same wireless network name and the same password that you used with AirPort Extreme with the 'old' modem, if you wish, or use a new wireless network name and password

• I have a problem connecting the Netgear model No. RPV3000 Extender. So I can not see my network_EXT computer and therefore cannot link to this Netgear

  I'm AT & T PACE router connected to Internet. However, I have a problem connecting the Netgear model No. RPV3000 Extender. So I can not see my network_EXT computer and therefore cannot link to this Netgear. I tried to use another network with the name of my network_ext and provide the same passkey that my router, but it was impossible to connect to the Extender.

  I would appreciate it, if I can get any suggestion/help to bind and connect to this extension of NETGear. I have WIndow7 system on my computer.

  Thank you

  Harshad João

  First, make sure that the netgear device is not a router.  An Extender is very good.  You can't have more than one router in a network.  Also make sure that if you use the router wireless integrated into your modem, the router ONLY in use.

  There is a very specific configuration for the Extender.  It should have come with detailed instructions.  If you can't find them, call Netgear for assistance.

• 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.

• Problems with AirPort Extreme and Qwest Modem/Router.

  I have a Qwest ActionTec 1000 DSL VDSL2 gateway and want to disable the functions of router wireless and those through direct AirPort Extreme. I know that in the Modem I have to disable the functions of addressing and turn them in the AirPort Extreme to avoid address conflicts, but what are the settings I need to change in both devices? And what is "A Transparent bridging" on the side of the modem?

  But what are the settings I need to change in both devices?

  Sorry, we can't help on the settings for the modem/router, because it would be a question of Qwest as to if this is even possible and if so, if Qwest will support this type of installation. Sometimes the ISP lock modem/router settings, and although it seems as if you can change the basic configuration of the unit, you can really.

  Yes, it is possible that another user of Qwest has done with the same modem/router you have and an AirPort Extreme... and may know the answer... but the chances of the person who holds this information also to see this post are slightly above zero. But, I guess it's possible.

  If the modem/router can be configured to operate only as a simple modem, then the next step would be to get your Mac connected directly to the modem to test the connection in this way. If Qwest is going to help you, they will do it no doubt with your Mac connected directly to the "modem" as well.

  Once you know the exact details of the PPPoE authentication to establish a connection, these parameters can be transferred to the AirPort Extreme and removed from your Mac. To do this, you reset the AirPort Extreme back to default and then put settings in place again. The installer should detect the PPPoE connection and then ask for your login information.  After this, the correct settings apply to AirPort Extreme during the installation.  You can still use the same wireless network name and password you used before if you wish, or set up a new network name and password.

  PPPoE on the routers of the airport, at least in my experience, was not a reliable way to connect when I tried this in the past, but you don't really know how well... or even if... it will work until try you it. Unless you really want the airport to distribute IP addresses to devices on your network, things would be a lot more simple if you went ahead and used the modem/router "such what" and then let the airport works in Bridge Mode to transfer information in connection with network devices.

  When you have the modem/router converted to act as a simple modem and made a successful connection using your Mac connected directly to the "modem", post back and we can help with the configuration of the AirPort Extreme if you need more advice.

• How to configure WRT54G as a follow-up to my Airport extreme "n".

  I bought a WRT54G version 1 less than 6 months ago.

  Last week I got a Time Capsule from Apple with Airport Extreme 802.11n.

  As the Time Capsule AE "n" will be faster,

  I would use it rather than the main router.

  But how do the WRT54G an extension

  EI?

  basically is there a way I can configure two routers to work

  together and make the best of each?

  Thanks in advance

  Ignore the saber_tooth. It is just repeat everything. If you have a WRT54G web interface is something like this. You have to change the next radio button to disable the DHCP server on the WRT to the ' DHCP server: "leave"Enabled"to"disabled. "

  On the same page, you will also need to change the "local IP address". The default is 192.168.1.1. You must change this IP address to an available inside the Apple LAN address. The LAN on the most convenient airport is set up under the network tab of the Airport utility (at least on Windows version). The standard is to "distribute IP addresses" and "share a single IP address (using DHCP and NAT)" and to use the addressing 10.0.1.1/24.

  You can also view this information on Windows, in a command prompt window by entering "ipconfig". The interesting information is the IP address on the connection to the local network, the subnet mask and the default gateway. On a Mac, type "ifconfig" in a Terminal. Search the en0 interface, which should display the IP address after "inet" and the network mask. You will find the entry door with "netstat - rn". Locate the line of destination 'by default'. It shows the door entry in the second column.

  The subnet mask or network mask is usually 255.255.255.0 or 0xffffff00. With this subnet mask, all IP addresses with the same three digits belong to the same subnet. If you have an IP 10.0.1.123 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 IP address 10.0.1.1 - 254 belong to the subnet. All IP addresses would be possible. Of course, you can not choose the IP address of the gateway (Airport). I don't know what IP address the airport itself uses by default. If you have any doubts, after the IP address, gateway address and subnet mask that you found on a computer that is connected to the Airport (i.e. The WRT not connected anywhere).

• Apple Airport Extreme and new FIOS router - problem

  Hello, I have an Apple Airport Extreme 802.11n base station, which worked well with a Comcast router.  When you set up with Comcast router, I set the router to comcast to bridge and the Airport Extreme has done all the work as the main router. When I switched to Verizon FIOS today, I get the typical mistake of NAT double (that I did with the Comcast before configuring the router to Comcast to bridge).  However, the tech support guy FIOS said that was not an option, so he set up my Airport Extreme in bridge - router off mode mode.  This really live to the top incoming access using SSH, Timbuktu or the Apple screen sharing, given that I can't assign fixed IP addresses to the computers on my network and can not use the Airport Utility Network Port settings to open "pipes" for a particular computer.  In addition, I'm more comfortable using Airport Extreme, rather than things FIOS. Someone at - it other than enter Comcast suggestions?

  I did a search and didn't see a post on this in the discussion forum.  Thank you

  What is the brand and model of your router Verizon? Verizon provides you with administrator access to it to allow you to make changes?

• Portege M400 connected to the WiFi router, but not the navigation of Web pages

  Hello

  I use M400 laptop computer series that I bought in 2005 and do not know if the guarantee was already finsihed, although I paid extra for an extended warranty.
  You should check a second time.

  My wireless connection was working fine with my conection DSL broadband 2 years ago, I was using router Netgear wireless. In the last 2 years that I did not use wirless conection, recently I bought Thomson TG585 router to my ADSL connection wireless broadband. This wireless router works fine with my other Mac desktop computer but my laptop is not browse a Web page if it says connected with WiFi router.

  I went through all the settings and even I have discussed this question with the technical team bradband and say there is problem with my computer laptop bcz Mac Desktop works fine.

  I checked in the wireless troubleshooting setting and still not able to solve this problem.
  I use KesperKey Internet Security and I tried to turn it off for the test connection wireless but always face same problem.

  I wonder if anyone can help me?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Disable all the security settings on your router and then try to connect the M400 protected wireless.
  If you will be able to connect to the WLan and will be able to navigate a few s webpage you could activate step by step all the security settings such as encryption of WLan, Mac address filtering, SSID hidden, etc.

  By the way; Have you tried to update the driver WLan?
