• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• Why Airport Extreme disappeared from Airport utility, after adding to the mac feature?

  10.11 OS, with the version of the airport, 6.3.6.  I can see is no longer my Airport Extreme Airport utility after I activated to Mac. I have Airport Extreme base ME91899/A and two Airport Express units model A1392 bolt torque.  I set up the Airport Extreme unit and the network first.  I was able to see the Airport utility. I then added each airport express unit. They were also visible. Then I added back the ability of Mac to the Airport extreme unit, and now it is no longer visible in the Airport utility.  Why is this?

  Apple has problems much time with iCloud. Turn off Back to My Mac across your airport routers and then shut down and restart the entire network.

  We will have to wait for a fix from Apple.

• Clicked forget time capsule, now I can't get it to appear in AirPort Utility.  How can I get it back?

  Accidentally clicked forget Time Capsule, now I can't get it to appear in AirPort Utility.  How can I get it back?

  Turn off all devices on the network... in any order you want

  Wait a minute

  Turn on the modem and let it run for a few minutes by itself

  Switch on the device connected to the modem and let it turn a good minute

  Keep the devices one at a time, about a minute apart from starting until the entire network is back

  Check if Time Capsule has resurfaced

• 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.

  

• How can I print a list of MAC addresses in the Airport utility?

  Hi-

  In our House, security Wi - Fi is obtained by listing the MAC addresses of machines allowed in our airports.  Make a list of these addresses used to be as simple as make a screenshot of the table in the Airport utility.

  Now, with MacOS 10.11.3 and Airport 6.3.6, the table in the network utility > Timed Access Control... > Wireless Clients no longer mentions the MAC addresses.  You can view them one at a time, but you cannot display them all at once.

  Is there a way - possibly with Terminal commands, or perhaps AppleScript - to display the names of the guests from the airport and MAC addresses in a kind of list?

  -Gil

  Apple has closed all utility of its utility... so now, it's the bare minimum and nothing more.

  You can buy tools of third-party network, inet, fing for your iOS devices and find all attached devices.

  Or you can buy a router to another provider and keep the most convenient airport for WAP than this OK functions.

  You can also export the configuration file... search in a text editor and remove MAC addresses... but there is nothing that even comes close to what decent average routers made nowadays.

• My AirPort Extreme end not implemented with the help of AirPort Utility

  Bought a used AirPort Extreme (Genesis 4) of a person who showed me that he worked at home. When I try to set up as a Wireless extender to my last existing AirPort Extreme, he will not carry out synchronization upward with AirPort Utility. It appears as a new extreme, but get a message 'unexpected error' before or after the name. Have you tried to reset the two while it is powered and turning the as explained in the help.

  When I try to set up as a Wireless extender...

  Gen 4 airport will connect to your existing AirPort Extreme wireless... or... it will connect using wired Ethernet wired, Permanent?

  .. .it will not accomplish the synchronization upward with AirPort Utility.

  Which version of AirPort Utility?  If it's on your Mac... and you don't know what version you have...

  Open AirPort Utility

  Click the AirPort Utility menu in the upper left corner of the screen

  Click on about AirPort Utility

  Report on the version number you see here

  You have an iPhone or a handy iPad that could be used to implement the 4th Gen airport if the problems continue with the help of your Mac?

• Airport utility will not install

  When I try to install AirPort Utility on my iMac running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

  I get the following message;

  AirPort utility cannot be installed to this disk.

  The version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported.

  could you please help.

  concerning

  Stephen

  OS X El Capitan is already bundled with AirPort Utility v6.x. It seems that you try to install the older v5.x for the utility. Unfortunately, this older version will not install on later versions of OS X.

  If you require administer an older 802.11 g AirPort access point you will need a Mac running OS X Lion or earlier or a Windows XP or 7 PC.

• Time Capsule will not respond to Airport utility

  Here's my situation.

  I have a Time Capsule as my single wireless AP.  The led is green.  All my devices are able to access it without problem.  I can all the Time Machine backups on the internal drive.

  However...

  When I try to access the TC via the Airport on my MacBook Pro (10.10.5) utility I get the next series of notifications:

  (1) when the first attempts to access it, I get the message 'read settings on the Time Capsule XXXXX'

  (2) after a few minutes of this status, I get a yellow triangle with "Device Not Found.  XXXXX Time Capsule was previously part of your network.  Check that it is still within range of your network and it is plugged into a power outlet.  Forget this device removes this network (button) [FORGET]

  When I try to access to utility Airport on my iPad Air (9.2), I am able to access the information about the hardware, but no matter how many times I enter the password, I have no answer.

  The device is not in a convenient place for a direct ethernet access, but it is possible.  Can anyone think of a reason why I can't access via Airport utility?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  If you did not do a complete network feeding cycle in a while, now would be a good time to do this.

  Turn off all devices on your network..., modem, router, computers, accessories, etc... in any order you want

  Wait a minute

  Start the modem first and let run for 2-3 minutes

  Then begin the next device connected to the modem and let it run for a minute

  Keep a minute out one at a time until the entire network is back of boot devices

  Recheck the network and AirPort on your Mac utility

• Download Airport utility

  Tried to download the Airport 6.3.1 utility for mac, but get this: "Airport utility cannot be installed to this disk. Th version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported. "I have MAC OS X 10.11.6

  You already have a newer version 6.3.6 of AirPort Utility installed on your Mac... Since the AirPort Utility is part of the Mac operating system.

  Open Finder > Applications > utilities > utility AirPort to confirm.

  6.3.1 airPort utility could only be installed if you are using a much longer operating system on your Mac.

• The airport utility reports incorrect

  Hello

  My Macbook Pro OS is El Captain worm 10.11.6

  Airport utility is worm 6.3.6

  2 x last Airport extreme firmware ver 7,7,7 connected by ethernet, one in bridged mode, another DHCP server.

  When I wake up my macbook and logon, then open Airport utility, both extremes have an exclamation point and the light orange, the message that opens essentially said along the lines of the device not found or not connected and there is a button to Forget. BUT the network works fine. This does not happen on my iPad. It looks like a bug to me, or is there a solution?

  We have seen the problems of this kind in recent weeks, but I think that it has been corrected by Apple. However, by chance you have one or both of your base station configured to use your Apple for Back to My Mac ID? If so, disable it to see if that fixes the problem.

  If this isn't the case, we can try other things.

• Airport utility cannot find Airport extreme

  Using vs 6.3.6 on my Mac Pro. Whenever I run the utility it is something different, but there is always at least one of my extremes that will not be detected. Usually, none are detected the first time I run the utility. If I'm lucky I can restart the utility time 3 or 4 and is ultimately connected to the extreme, I need to access. Sometimes I have to reboot the extreme to access even if it displays a green light. This problem also occurs with the current version of the iOS of the utility and when you try to configure the extreme of OS X Server. Server loses its connection to the extreme router and keep telling me that I used the wrong password.

  Found some old validation recommended setting up IPv6 on my Mac Pro local linc, appears not to have any effect. Someone at - it other solutions?

  Found some old validation recommended setting up IPv6 on my Mac Pro local linc, appears not to have any effect.

  Most users will have more luck if IPv6 on airports parameters are defined for Local link only... unless your ISP provided you with IPv6 specific parameters to use for their service and you have verified that your devices are actually IPv6 addresses.

  Affecting airports Local link may be worth a try if you have not already done this. No guarantee, that the "disappearing airport" bug has been around since version 6.x of AirPort Utility was introduced more than 3 years ago.  Strangely, it seems to be creeping to the right these days.
