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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • An external HD w / 6th gen Airport Extreme can be used for NAS?

    I ' d like converted my Mac home theater use more, and I thought about options for NAS.» My current kit includes an old 802.11 g Express, so of course I will upgrade to a new extreme for bandwidth extra. I see the extreme has a full range of ports at the back, so can I attach an external hard drive of quality to the extreme and end up with a good - although budget - NAS?

    can I attach an external hard drive of quality to the extreme and end up with a good - although budget - NAS?

    Yes, if you are willing to accept extremely slow performance compared to a normal NAS.  The reason is that the USB port on the AirPort Extreme is only USB 2.0, and due to the limitations of speed processor on AirPort Extreme, the port is working at only half the speed of a USB 2.0 on a computer.

    So, at best, the 'budget' NAS can run about one third to half the speed of NAS normal. This might be OK for backups and other data that you may not access on a normal basis, but it would not be recommended to try to locate a picture of 'work' library, video library or other type of audio/video media on the USB key which will be available on a regular basis.

    Another issue to consider is that the USB 2.0 on the AirPort Extreme is in power, then you will probably need to use a USB powered with AirPort Extreme hub.

    Finally, most of the USB hard drives are now USB 3.0... and the port on the AirPort Extreme is only USB 2.0.  In theory, USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0... but the theory does not always true in practice.

    If you already have a USB 3.0 drive, Apple does allow a privilege to return 14 days for the purchase of new AirPort Extreme, so if you still wish to proceed, you can try things for a week or two to see how well... or, even if... .they will work.

  • 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.

    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.

  • AirPort Extreme can disappear from the network

    I have an airport Time Capsule 802.11ac 3 TB, implemented as my router, connected to a cable modem Comcast.  I also three units AirPort Extreme 802.11ac connected via an Ethernet cable and configure in Bridge mode.  The settings were all made with Apple AirPort Utility, using the default settings.  All devices are new, and have the latest version of the (7.7.7) package.

    My problem is that one of the SSA keeps disappearing from the network.  The AP utility shows all devices, but unity of the 'room' is still "missing in your network.  When I restart the device by unplugging the, the unit seems to work fine for a little while.

    Because the problem occurs on a unit, I think not that it is a question of ISP or OS.

    Has anyone else had a problem like this, and understand you?

    It is not uncommon.

    There is a real problem with apple DNS...

    What modem do you use?

    Actual spending brand and model please... It is probably not related, but it is useful to know the complete network configuration.

    Question I would like to change.

    1. your names are too long and contain spaces.

    Use any short names, without spaces and pure alphanumeric characters. Names must be less than 10 characters... all names... both network name.

    See Pondini for questions that arise with more long names... and that was before Apple changed network SMB.

    http://pondini.org/TM/C9.html

    2. the WAN port on the AC model TC and AE are not reliable.

    In bridge, what do you do better move the connection to one of the LAN ports...!

    3. you have an unreliable ethernet cord or if it is installed in the wall a bad Jack which is down to... This happens especially in that self installed ethernet... and even the ordinary electrician has problems... sometimes wrongly wired a pair of broken. You should test all ethernet correctly and make sure have full gigabit connections.

    4. use static IP via both a dhcp on the TC and AE reservation jumpered on the internet tab. Least IP moves the less work THAT DNS must do to stay.

  • 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.

  • If 2 Airport extreme can stay connected to each other using their LAN ports?

    Hello friends,

    I would like to know if 2 Airport extreme or 1 Airport Extreme and Airport Express can stay connected to each other using LAN ports at the ends? I thought this is the LAN port 1 connected to the WAN port on the 2nd.

    Thank you

    To clarify the issue and the scenario, one of my friend described a typical scenario in which there are 2 AEs. AE1 has an ISP in its port WAN and AE2 has a different ISP in its WAN port. This 2 AE can mutually connected between them by using ports LAN AE1 and AE2 ethernet cable? He said this could be feasible if AE2 remained in bridged mode, without using the ISP attached to its WAN port. I just don't get how this is possible. Friends of the search help.

  • 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.

    I have Cox hispeed internet and a simple modem which is divided into two separate networks; one of my computers and the other for support (Apple TV, etc.).

    Not exactly what you mean by "split into two separate networks" here. Do you mean that you have an Ethernet switch connected directly to the modem that is used to make the separation? What is the make & model of the modem as Cox brings you?

  • Can't see printer to the Printers folder & devices

    I do not see my HP 6 p printer in the devices folder & printers but it shows in all applications when you print.  I had it installed & tried to uninstall so now it is not visible, but apparently the driver still exists somewhere.  How can I find the driver and remove it so I can reinstall the printer properly

    most likely the printer is correctly installed.  If the parallel port is configured in the BIOS of the machine as the printer SPP is classified as part of the machine.  Right click on computer you.  If one of the options of the menu's properties of the printer which is where it's at.  You can configure the BIOS of the machine to the EPP.  I think that it will work with this device.
