• 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?

• Purchase of 3rd Apple Airport Extreme Base Station

  My current 2 Apple Airport Extreme Base Stations (the two 5th generation) are implemented as shown in the screenshot below.

  My fiber service (80 MB/s) is hard directly on an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station plugged into my home office (via an Ethernet cable that connects from the box of fiber on the outside wall of my house to this AE).

  While AE is hard wired to a 2nd AE in a separate building in my back yard (via an underground conduit of PVC).

  Wired connection that's not a separate Ethernet cable.

  Instead, my provider of fiber spliced in an existing telephone cable that already existed.

  Currently hard connected directly to that 2nd AE in the building separated (via Ethernet cable) are the following:

  My Dell Precision Tower 5810

  My Canon imageCLASS MF6160dw (all-in-one)

  Printer color of my Epson Stylus Pro WF-5190

  (Suite after screenshot)

  

  I am replacing a very old 30 "TV Sony with a 60" LED Smart TV & want to run an Ethernet cable from the AE 1st in my home office to the living room where will be the TV.

  My intention is to add a Roku at the same place than television.

  In addition, I want to increase my wifi signal in the room.

  I know that the Express is 1/2 the cost of the extreme, but will most likely go to the extreme. - If the extreme will give me faster speeds for my Roku and TV.  In addition, I like to have the additional ports available if I ever sign anything else.

  My fiber Service is 80 MB/s Up & Down, but I regularly receive about 96 +.

  80 MB/s is no longer offered by my supplier of fiber, but I'm grandfathered in.

  The available speeds are now 45 (?) with the speed of 100 Mbps.

  I think I'm really on 100 Mbps service.

  QUESTIONS :

  The 2nd AE has been "extended" EI from 1.

  Just as "extend" the 3rd AE?

  For speed best / highest in the living room, the most recent AE should be in the living room next to the TV & the Roku, or he would replace the 1st AE who is in my home office since it is one that is connected directly to the box of fiber on the outside wall of my house?

  Other recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

  The 2nd AE has been "extended" EI from 1.

  Just as "extend" the 3rd AE?

  Yes, either by connecting to the extreme 1... recommended, if possible... .or extreme 2nd... If it is not convenient to connect to the 1st.

  For speed best / highest in the living room, the most recent AE should be in the living room next to the TV & the Roku, or he would replace the 1st AE who is in my home office since it is one that is connected directly to the box of fiber on the outside wall of my house?

  Locate the extreme new... which has a much better arrangement... wireless antenna where it provide the most benefits to nearby wireless devices.

  Otherwise, you might want to consider renaming your airports, because the current device names far exceed the recommended length name a 26 characters max, including spaces. Keep the name short and simple wireless network as well... and to avoid special characters in the name... as an apostrophe, a sign dollar, asterisk, etc..

• WAG160N and an Apple Airport extreme

  I recently bought an Apple Airport extreme, and in order to use the guest account, I need to disable DHCP and NAT on my WAG160N settings and allow extreme settings. Otherwise the extreme is in bridge mode and therefore doesn't let me create a guest account.

  Could someone tell me please what settings I need to change in the WAG160N so that it acts as a modem only and not a router.

  Thank you

  You can't disable NAT on the WAG unless you go to fashion of the bridges, which means that it becomes a simple modem. You cannot use the wireless on the WAG, nor anything else. In bridged mode, you configure Airport Extreme as main router connecting to PPPoE (or whether you need from your ISP).

  Switch mode bridge on the main configuration page.

• ARE remote with Apple Airport Extreme router wireless

  Hi all! I'm controlling my DA5800 STR using the Remote ES app but neither my iOS device sees the receiver OR my Sony Android Tablet S. So I figure it must be the network set up. I use a cable modem Motorola connected to an Apple Airport Extreme via an ethernet cable. The receiver is connected to the router, as shown in the manual.

  I'm doing something wrong here?

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  Hello Sandiegodom,

  Please check the network settings on the receiver ARE and confirm that the 'external control' is active, as well as the "relief network" that will allow the application ARE the 'waking up' the unit from standby mode.

  Also check that your phone is connected to the same wireless network, and IP addresses of the phone and the receiver are in the same subnet / IP Range. UpNp must also be enabled in the settings of the router.

  If you have verifed that these settings are correct, then the question is perhaps with the router where it does not send data to the local discovery of uPnP network devices. A simple power reset or resetting the router will sometimes force the router to send back data and should fix the problem if that is the case.

• Photosmart more B209a-m does not connect with apple airport extreme base station

  I use the B209a-m wireless with a netgear router OS6.  I just changed the Netgear to an apple Airport Extreme router.  All my other hardware connected successfully with the new router but the B209a-m says "no connection found."  I know the printer is well within the router.  I have reset the factory settings on the printer.  I've disabled the system and restarted.  None of this has worked.  Suggestions?

  Hello

  You should not connect it to the airport.

  You must connect the printer with a USB port on your Mac, then run the HP installation wizard.

  From there, you will be guided to provifde the details needed to establish the connection between the printer and Airport Extreme wireless.

  Once the process will be completed and set up the wifi connection you will be guided to unplug the USB.

  You must use a USB cable high speed standard, not longer than 2 m in length.

  The square end must be connected to the USB port located at the back of the printer:

  

• SG300 combination with Apple AirPort Extreme

  Hello

  I recently bought a SG300 series switch. I want to connect my internet connection in a port of the switch and connect my Apple AirPort Extreme in the switch. So I want that all my other ports on the switch to be put to rout by the airport. Connection Internet and airport to the switch gives you access to the Internet for all wireless clients connected to it. But no switch ports can ping from the airport.

  How can I configure this as simple as possible?

  What I've done so far is to switch the L3 and nothing else. With nothing has changed from the default settings, I was expecting unrestricted access between ports, but appears not to be the case.

  It's my first time, so I expect that it's probably a simple problem.

  I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

  Thank you in advance.

  FR. Lars

  Lars salvation,

  I don't know what is the idea behind connection WAN and LAN to SG300. Is it because you have a single switch, but would need two?

  Also I am not aware how the airport works. Not NAT?

  To add a static route you must navigate Configuration IP--> IP--> Routes IPv4 interfaces and management

  Destination must be 0.0.0.0 IP prefix also 0.0.0.0 if this static route so to access internet.

  Kind regards

• HP Photosmart C4795 with Apple Airport Extreme Wireless router - cable PC problem

  Hello

  I searched, but I can't quite find an exact match for my problem.

  I have a new HP desktop computer running Windows 7, and I attach it to my wireless router which is an Apple Airport Extreme.  I have attached my HP C4795 printer to the USB port on the * router *.  In theory, the USB key should pass through, so that the office will think it's a printer "connected", while also allowing us to print remotely from our laptops (via the router).

  Unfortunately, while portable computers can print wireless very well, the * office * Guard 'lose' the printer, thinking that it is in offline mode.  Even when it shows 'online' (after my relocation via "Add a printer"), still error-out print jobs.

  Can someone help me understand how this works?  The printer works fine, btw, if I disconnect the USB cable between the router and plug directly to the PC, if it isn't something directly with the printer or the desktop, but rather the * combination * of running through the Apple Airport Extreme router.

  Thank you

  Thank you, once again, Jim.

  I think I have stumbled on the solution.  I did a reading online on Apple application 'Hello', and how he felt necessary for Apple devices, like the airport, knit with device sharing.  I forgot that the installation of the airport disk had said something Hello installation, but I discovered on my Wired HP Win 7 PC menu programs, called 'Hello Printer Utility' or something, and I launched it, selected the C4795 in the dialog box, and all seems to be put in place (i.e. the printer suddenly showed as 'online' and I could print from my desktop wired as well as wireless laptop).

  Success!

  Thanks for all your help on this.  Now, all I need is to get my WD My Book external/sharing the hard drive to work as well!  Unfortunately, I do not see here a "Hello Hard Disk Utility", but I feel somehow that morning will be the answer.  I just understand it.

  Thank you

• Presario 2175US not able to connect to the radio after installing Apple Airport Extreme router

  Hi all.  I have a Presario 2175US portable computer that is running Windows XP SP2.  The wireless adapter is a Broadcom 802. 11b / g WLAN adapter.  We have recently installed a router Apple AirPort Extreme in our House, with a network WPA2 key, and while the wireless network is visible on my laptop, when I try to connect, it tries to connect for about 90 seconds, but fails.  Unlike other laptops that we have, it does not ask me to enter the network key before trying to connect.  If anyone has a solution to this problem, I would be very grateful.  Thank you.

  Thanks for the comments, Paul.  I am pleased to say that the problem was solved after I installed the Windows XP SP3.

• Cannot print with HP6840 since I added the password to the Apple AirPort Extreme network

  I recently added to my Mac Airport Extreme network WPA password protection. While I can access the network from my computer, I can't print a HP6840, one of my two wireless printers, even if there is no problems prior to the addition of password.

  I can always print to my old HP LaserJet 6MP using an AppleTalk-Ethernet bridge and managed to reconfigure my second wireless printer to work with the new password.

  I already tried the following:

  Uninstalled/reinstalled the original CD and more recent software/drivers HP printer

  Tried to printer configuration using the Ethernet - half thanks looking for printer, received an error message "Communication error with a printer" and the installation process has failed.

  Checked: Safari bookmarks / Hello: printer does not appear

  Computer and the printer turned off and restarted the computer

  None of these attempts succeeded.

  Any suggestions on how to restore my wireless printing?

  Thank you.

  Mac OS 10.5.7 iMac with Intel processor

  I spent 3 hours on the phone this morning with the HP Technical Support. While the call cost me $35, it's probably money well spent. After trying all kinds of approaches to installation, we finally concluded that the villain was probably the combination of personal WPA2 to authenticate password on my network and the inability of the HP6840 printer (now almost 5 years) to support WPA2. Tech said that WPA2 wasn't around 5 years.

  So I have two options: delete the password completely and let my unprotected network, use a WEP password (which can create an Apple AirPort and the printer can recognize) or try a WPA password. However, it seems that the airport offer only WPA-Personal and WPA Enterprise, while the printer does not seem to accept the WPA.

  Even if I don't really relish change passwords again, it seems that WEP is the way to go.

  Hope this helps those trying to install old printers on the new networks.

• HP OfficeJet L7780 802.11 g - why it cannot find my Apple Airport Extreme?

  I bought a HP officeJet L77380 all-in-one printer/fax, etc. It is designated in 802.11 g I turned the radio network / wireless 'on '. When I choose Network/Wireless Wizard I get a rotating cursor and the message «Search» router wireless... "and he never finds anything. "I chose my Airport Extreme Radio Mode Setup: 802.11n (802. 11 b / g compatible). It still does not work. Help! And a Happy New Year in this Discussion Forum.

  I downloaded and reinstalled the current driver.  It works fine when it is connected to the Airport Extreme, even via an ethernet cable.  I posted this to the talk of HP and they told me to contact the Apple Support! (this shows how useless this company may be!).  I also spent an hour on the phone with HP support and it turns out that they put me thro' for their expert XP and there weren't available Mac technicians.  Well - it's Saturday night!

  Just to be clear, you're saying your L7780 is unable to discover your network wireless printer Wireless Setup Assistant?

  BTW - I run a 802.11n Airport Extreme wireless router at home and my HP wireless printers work fine.

  I would like to see the report of internal connectivity of the printer.  Press the < configuration > and <># keys simultaneously.   Analyze the report on a memory card, copy it to your PC and post the image here.

  The connectivity report will give me details about your wireless network and the networks in the region.

  Also, what other wireless devices you have connected to your network?

  Best regards / Jim B

• HP Color Laserjet 3800 Apple Airport Extreme problem.

  HP Color Laserjet 3800.

  Mac OS Lion.

  IMac and macbook Air.

  Improved Airport Extreme newest model of much older model. Now, I can't print from my office iMac and MacBook Air via the wifi on my HP printer connected to Airport Extreme USB port.  Seems to send the print job to the printer, but the printer message 'data' and then hangs until I press the button "check", how to print a page that says "ERROR: FAUTIVE COMMAND timeout: timeout".   Prints fine when connected directly to the computer via USB.

  Your printer has an Ethernet cable connection?  If so, connect directly to the AirPort Extreme with an Ethernet cable, which should work.

  If only USB port only in the printer, sometimes it is useful to restart the printer and the router, created a new printer queue and try again.  If you still have the same error, then we will have to continue the investigation

  Thank you

• Apple airport extreme - this unit may be overheating message and blinking orange light

  I see constant flashing light of Ember and the message "this device may be overheating" in airport utility.

  Is what model? Questions over overheating are high AC version. If this isn't the case, please give the number of actual model of the base, A1xxx.

  The fan may hang with dust... details in airport utility should give you this info.

  

  

  The foregoing applies only to the model AC Extreme and TC.

• Please help me with my Apple Airport Extreme

  Aabout 2 weeks ago, we had a storm really come through the East Texas up to this point my router was working fine. The first week, I called and my ISP said that we had a power outage in the area and I thought that I thought this would happen so I waited a week so that they could get that clears up and the fact that I was always getting internet was slow, but I was still getting service.  Next week I continues to check the speed of the internet, and it was still slow so I called the ISP and they said everything was good at the end there are so I hooked my book mac ylthe modem and tested it and I was getting high speed but when I connected it to my router it was lamentable, once again. Now, here's where it gets weird in the morning as around 05:00, I get great service, but when I come home it's crap. I called apple and talked to technical support and just tried what they suggested that they sent me a replacement and it does the same thing, I am at a loss and do not know what could do this I changed the network name where only my Mac has been on the network and no dice. I put in Bridge mode with Mac connected directly to the airport and he did good but as soon as it went wireless was not good! So guys and girls I know this is a long post and it is typed on my iPhone but do I just go and buy a new router or I can save this one, because I don't really like it. Thanks for your help, sincerely Josh

  We need more details.

  Who is your ISP? Cox in particular is having problems with IPv6. There is a long thread to here about it.

  This modem do you have?

  You can test the direct connection to the modem after you come home and give us the real speed test. Then, put the airport back and test again... show the actual speed.

  Even in the morning when the airport looks ok.
