PC does not connect to AirPort Extreme

I have a windows 7 dell latitude D600 that connects to wireless very well. I think that the wireless card is like b/g/n.

I have an Airport Extreme 6th Gen AC that sends wifi very well to everything I own.

The PC sees the network, I click on it and enter the password, he thinks for a while and fails!

I have studied this problem and it is not the PC, I think it is the most convenient airport.

Thank you

If you take a look at the plug of the D600, you will see that it is Wireless 'b' which forces the old WEP security settings.

http://www.CNET.com/products/Dell-Latitude-D600/specs/

Unfortunately, the new routers WEP abandoned airport about 3-4 years ago because it is so safe and easily cracked with some free tools available on the Internet.

A test, turn off security on the AirPort Base Station wireless and see if the Dell can connect in this way. If he can... then you know that the Dell is not compatible with the highest levels of security that use airports and other newer routers.

Do not recommend that you do this, but you can try to lower the security on the airport to WPA/WPA2...but I don't know if the Dell will connect this way or not.  It won't if it is limited to WEP security levels.

Better to keep safety at the recommended levels and try a USB wireless adapter to see if it works with the Dell printer.

  • I just got a new modem (Arris SB6190) and now my Airport Extreme does not connect.  It worked fine with the previous modem (a rented one TWC).  Help!

    I just got a new modem (Arris SB6190) and now my Airport Extreme does not connect.  It worked fine with the previous modem (a rented one TWC).  Help!

    Always recommended to reset the airport back to settings by default and then set up again whenever you have a new modem or change your Internet Service provider.

    Turn off the new modem for at least 30 minutes. More is better.

    Perform a hard reset on the AirPort Extreme, then it turned off.

    Make sure that the Ethernet cable connects the modem to the "O" on the AirPort Extreme WAN port

    After the power of the modem 30 minutes down, turn on the modem and let it run for at least 5 minutes by itself.

    Then, turn on the airport and let it run a few minutes

    Set up AirPort Extreme again

    Important note... There are many reports of problems with the modem Arris SB and airports. Both are great products, but they do seem to work perfectly together for some users.

  • Airport utility: green points on the AirPort Extreme & Internet; Mini Mac does not connect to the internet.

    Airport utility shows green points on the AirPort Extreme and the Internet, but my my Mac mini does not connect to the internet. IPhones and 2 portable Windows connect very well, and see all the devices on the home network. The problem occurred after that PSI has swapped an ancient for a Comtrend CT5072T DSL modem. I tried to stop and things start back up as if the installation of the internet for the first time. No joy.

    The airport connects using DHCP in Bridge Mode

    The router address is 192.168.80.1

    Address IPv4 is 192.168.80.2

    DNS server is the same as the router, but grayed out

    Mac Mini IPv4 Address is 192.168.80.3

    IPv6 automatically configures

    Also updated the firmware of the airport; no change.

    ISP guy was friendly but puzzled. He started at the top floor level Tech, so I do not know when I hear back.

    Any ideas to fix?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Network preferences may be damaged.

    Open the Finder. In the Finder menu bar, click go > go to folder

    Type or copy paste the following text:

    / Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration

    Click OK, and then move all files in the SystemConfiguration folder to the trash.

    Restart your Mac. See if that makes a difference.

    Your Mac will generate a new SystemConfiguration folder for you.

    Then open AirPort Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilitiies

    Make sure that both Internet and Extreme are green.

    I just upgraded to a pace 5268AC router and can connect is more to my Airport base station. The base station does not appear in Airport utility. Any suggestions?

    Whenever you change the modem or modem/router to which the airport links... or... change your Internet connection process, the airport must be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work with the new device.

    Your message did not mention if you did that, but if not... to perform a Hard Reset on the router of the airport would be the first thing to do, to follow in setting up the airport once again, just as you would if the airport was new and connection to your modem/router for the first time.

  • the airport does not connect to the internet new

    I moved and now my airport does not connect to my new internet provider.  Can anyone suggestion solutions?

    Any time you change your provider or hardware networking it is always a good idea to perform a complete recycling of your network equipment power. Please check the following Tip of an airport users for assistance. Post back your results or if you need further assistance.

  • NETGEAR EX3700 AC Extender connect to airport extreme

    I have a ca Airport Extreme router and I am trying to use an extension cord of AC EX3700 Netgear instead of an Apple Express which only supports "N". Everyone was able to integrate the Netgear to their network?

    I have no experience with the Netgear, but I used other extensions of the apple airport wireless that work...

    The EX3700 is only AC750... which really means that it is a device of a single AC flow which will not be faster that the express... nothing in fact because the last express will do 450Mbit on 5 GHz... AS FAR AS I KNOW...

    Anyway... first thing...

    Change the EI setting to give the 5 GHz a different name at 2.4 ghz.

    Do this in Options wireless...

    Use a short name without spaces and pure alphanumeric... for example AE5ghz

    You can also set the channel wireless for 5 GHz to a known value... EG 36 or 149... everything is allowed in your country.

    Now, try and connect to 5 GHz Wireless... If it still does not... remove the WPA2 password... and try (briefly) without security.

    Test on both channels, I have proposed... If they are legal in your area.

    If the Netgear does not connect with AE in the conditions I just of... It would never work... Sorry, but not all wireless will work... nature of the beastie.

    If you get it to go immediately add a password... WPA2 Personal... and the password should be numbers and breaks mixed alphanumeric pure... 8 to 12 characters... failure... Take him back to wpa1 & 2 which is a bit more compatible.

  • iPad does not connect to the server

    Kind of, it looks like my iPad has disappeared and twisted his tail (connection) and got lost somewhere in cyberspace.

    Yesterday morning he opens to the screen Hello > Slide Set up who brought up the screen 'could not activate iPad' with the message "your iPad could not be activated because the activation server is not reachable. Try to connect the iPad to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a few minutes. If the problem persists, contact Apple Support at apple.com/support".

    This condition actually began three days when it does not connect to my Airport wireless internet and I could not he deleted.  I made the troubleshooting on the dome using Airport utility that showed connections to the top and the green. My main computer is not affected. I was able to put a return by making a total system power off for a few minutes and then turned on one at a time with the modem (cable) beginning (all equipment - computers, iPad, modem and airport), then the airport, my main computer (2003 iMac screen all-in-one flat) then the dome of the iMac. They are all restored correctly at full speed. At the point where I was interested only in the dome as I was doing some work on it using Classic applications and did not activate the iPad until the most late in the evening.

    I was wondering what is happening and if there is an inexpensive way to get it running again?

    Restore factory settings by loading the latest version of the ios that will support your machine:

    (1) make a full backup of your device if necessary.  Is two times better - cloud and computer.

  • What type of modem do I need connect my AirPort Extreme to BT infinity

    What type of modem do I need connect my AirPort Extreme to BT infinity

    The question is not really what kind of modem you need... it is rather one of 'approved' modems which provides the BT will be compatible with the AirPort Extreme.

    Unfortunately, the AirPort Extreme and other Apple routers are designed to work with standard DSL and cable type connections.  The fiber is a new ball game, and Apple has not yet learned all the rules for the new game.

    Your best bet would be to publish a list of 'approved' BT here modems and then ask other users who might have the same product and an AirPort Extreme about their experience.

    You can also just ask BT what product they would recommend to work with the AirPort Extreme.  They tell you that they will not support you if you are using the Apple product, so maybe it's something to consider as well.

  • AirPlay does not connect to remote speakers

    I have a mbp 10.11.3 and iTunes does not connect to my remote speakers via airplay.  Neither my wing will connect either.  My another mbp, old people will connect with aerodynamic profile, but iTunes does not connect on this computer.  The machines to connect to a network with two base stations.  The Airport Express is about 12 years old and is not taken in charge by the Airport utility, so I don't think I can do a lot with who else than rebooting, but if I do that, it can never connect to the network again.  It is plugged into speakers with a 1/8th inch socket, and it pulls its power supply ethernet that comes from a time capsule.

    In any case, any ideas on how to reconnect to the Airfoil speakers and iTunes?

    The Airport Express is about 12 years old and is not supported in Airport utility

    From my experience the AirPort Express has a "useful" life of 5 years. If yours is 12, congratulations! However, I think that this fact it is probably a failure and why you do you restore. What are the numbers of models of your base stations?

    Are both of your Mbps running OS X El Capitan?

    Let me assure you that I understand your current network configuration. Please let me know which of the following are correct:

    • Your current network consists of both a Time Capsule and AirPort Express base stations.
    • The Capsule is your "main" base station It would be directly connected to your Internet modem by Ethernet.
    • One of the Express base station is connected to the Capsule by Ethernet.
    • The other is set to extend the time Capsule wireless or simply to join the wireless network. Which is correct?
  • Sony bravia 50 kdl50r450a does not connect with WiFi

    Hello

    I have my Hitron modem in the basement and a flight upward is my new sony bravia 50 kdl50r450a. I am able to connect via WiFi with my smart phone & top of the Tower in the same room but without any problem.

    I have this TV for a month and that once I was able to connect to the net via WiFi.

    I'm on Extreme and tested my speed and got 4 bars. It recognizes my name, modem etc. but sometimes the apps not loading even on the TV. Often, the PVR box updates and transforms itself that I have to activate manually again. This usually up the wide PIN too, I can see.

    I contacted my internet provider to test the speed which seems to be very well.  I put manually the PIN via a laptop computer to make sure that the two PINS of the TV and modem are put in correspondence. I unplugged the TV for 30 seconds.  I unplugged my modem too.  I can't get the net with the exception of a spinning ball.

    I tried internet apps... Sony browser... loading the Google page, but no keyboard can't. Each app gets a spinning ball or Try Again message?

    This set also does not recognize my .jpgs and my videos on my USB it recognizes all the smart features are completely unnecessary at this stage?

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!

    I have Sony KDL-50R550A and I have the same thing as SonyGal. I have only had the TV for a month and I've been able to access the Internet once and it was the first day I put in place. What SonyGal said was my same experience. I even had my cable company come out today (24/09/14) and reset on the router and updated for speed. It does not recognize the WPS, the signal is very strong, but does not connect. Only says:
    Device to wireless TV: found
    Local access: failure
    Internet access: failure
    I tried everything in the troubleshooting, disconnect, reset, prayer, etc. nothing worked. Someone please help...

  • Printer does not connect to Windows

    I have a 20 "intel computer core duo iMac with Leopard 10.5.6 and side Windows, I use Windows XP Professional.  I have a HP Deskjet 6988 printer wireless connected via Airport Extreme.  I installed VMWare Fusion 2.0.1.  This works perfectly (internet access, programs, etc.) except it won't print from any Windows application.  It gives a message "not responding" when I try to print.  "Printers and faxes" control panel shows the right printer with a check box indicating that it is the default printer.  I did a search for this problem but can't find anything the same as this.  Can someone provide help please?

    about the only other thing I can think - in the VMware menu at the top of the screen, go to the Virtual Machine, then settings, then activated is checked and make sure that you have scored the Match the default printer on Mac.  Have you tried?  It's the only other place that I see any reference at all to what printer you use w / VMware Fusion unfortunately.  Sounds like your settings Windows is correct, so I hope that's it.
