• Using a Time Capsule airport on a new wifi network

  I'm trying to connect my TC Airport to a new wifi network to another location. It worked very well at the original location, used to extend an existing network of wifi, connected to the router via an Ethernet cable. In the new location, I'd rather have a wireless connection. I have tried several times to do a factory reset full and then I see the TC from the airport using the Airport utility, but it does not put in place to extend the wifi network my iMac is on (he sees a nearby network as well). I just simply want to configure my TC from the airport most convenient to save my iMac! Any ideas? Thank you!

  The TC must either connect to wireless to another router from apple... or it must be connected by ethernet... he can't extend wireless any other brand.

  If all of the TC is to is to make backups of iMac... Plug it directly by ethernet on the iMac... and use this configuration.

  Time Capsule using wired for Mac for backup only.

  If you want to have as part of the network... plug in ethernet on the main router... and the backup more wireless... but it becomes a problem where the computer don't connect directly to the TC now.

• my airport express does not extend to my network

  Hello to you all guru out there...

  I 5g internet and comes with the router and signal is fantastic in the main lounge, but it is a large apartment and once I get my room the signal decreases considerably.

  I bought an Airport Express and it connects to the wifi perfectly, green light and everything, but it does not extend my wifi network...

  Do I need to have another Aiport Express hooked up to the main router, then extend the Airport Express wifi or should I get an Airport Extreme?

  Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Do I need to have another Aiport Express hooked up to the main router, then extend the Airport Express wifi

  Yes, the "main" AirPort Express should be connected to your router using a wired Ethernet cable connection, permanently. This Express will be set to "create a wireless network.

  Other Express your distance can then be configured to "extend a wireless network.  In its current form, your existing Express is configured to "join a wireless network.  It will work for AirPlay like that, or allow you to connect a supported USB printer, but it cannot extend a network provided by a third-party router wireless.

  Regarding matching them things, it would make sense to use two airport expresses, or the two extremes of the airport.  The extreme might be your "primary" router if you wanted to, but the Express would not be able to expand the capacity of faster speed to the extreme.

• How can I configure my Time Capsule (its predecessor) as an extension of WIFI network?

  I have the previous model of the time Capsule and a new version and two MAC computers. I want to use the Capsule of ancient times to extend my WIFI network. I have a MAC with a new current version of time Capsule in the center of my house. I have a second MAC set up with an earlier version of a time Capsule in my office. I want to expand the network from the center of my home, further, beyond my office. Anyone know what I need to do? THX!

  Place the old TC in the same room as each other.

  Do a factory reset.

  Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the drive hard in doing so.

  Universal factory reset

  Turning off the TC... That is, remove the power supply cord or the power at the wall outlet, wait 10 seconds... Hold the reset button... be nice... Turn on always even now in reset... and keep holding in for another 10 seconds. You may need assistance because it is difficult to hold in reset and power on. It will show the success quickly flashing led front. Release reset... and wait a few minutes for the TC to reset and return with the factory settings. If the front LED flashes quickly you missed and simply try again. The reset is quite fragile in these... Press the key while it is just click away and not more... I've seen people bend lever or even break. I use a toothpick as a tool.

  NB. None of your files on the hard drive of the TC are removed... This simply clears the settings of the router of the TC.

  Open airport on the Mac utility and configure the old TC... it will automagically want to extend wireless.

  Complete the installation, then move the TC to a suitable place where it picks up good signal from the main TC. There is no need to a position of bad signal... then place it where the speed is close to full... but then covers your current area of dark (wifi not light).

  Fact... Voila... easy as pie.

• How can I connect my Airport time capsule to my WiFi network so he just backup my Mac and not extend nor want to be a base station

  How do I connect/install my time capsule airport to my new WiFi network so she just backup my Mac and not to extend my WiFi or want to be a WiFi hotspot

  There is no way to connect a TC to a wifi network. It must be connected by ethernet to the main modem or to the router.

  I don't understand what you're asking...

  If you want that the backup more wireless computer... How the TC cannot work as Wifi hotspot... It's impossible.

• How to extend a WiFi router network not Apple using Airport Extreme and Express?

  My cable ISP company just gave me a new modem/router - a DG of Arris - 2470. For the last two years I used a cable modem independent older with a connected Airport Extreme (both located on the ground floor) and an Airport Express station on the floor as an Extender. I was very happy with the power of the signal around the House.

  Since his arrival to the Arris router my signal has become very low to the floor. I would use my two Apple devices to extend/boost my network, but do not know how to do this.

  Thank you!

  Basically, you have two options:

  1. (Best overall performance of the network) Connect the extreme and Express on the Arris Ethernet gateway device and configure all for a traveling-type network. This would require an Ethernet connection between all routers that can be accomplished by either using Ethernet cable or the use of mains adapters.
  2. (The overall performance of the adequate network) Simply connect the extreme to the Arris Ethernet, then extend the extreme using the Express.

  Which of these do you prefer?

• I have a question where I listed two wifi networks. It is not in use and Im trying to find out how to remove parameters from the airport.

  I used routers of the airport for a few years now. I upgraded my main router at a Time capsule and my old Airport Extreme and Airport Express works online as sub routers to keep the good signal throughout my home. All work well, but I always have what is the former name of wifi in wifi settings and would like to delete it so that it shows only the new name of the wifi network and the network of comments.

• How to connect my Time Capsule to a WiFi network?

  Happily, I use a Time Capsule for years as a WiFi router connected as a bridge to the router provided by my supplier.

  Now, I'm moving to a place where internet is already provided by an access point in my new apartment and included in the monthly cost of the facilities in this village. The access point is hidden behind the ceiling of my apartment and doesn't have any port ethernet except the one used to get the internet. WiFi which will be available for me is configured by an administrator with the name of my apartment.

  My internet needs TC that the ethernet source and I wonder what I could do to work around this problem. I don't see any option in the settings of TC to connect to an existing WiFi.

  While waiting to move to the new apartment, I did a test by trying to create a scenario similar to the House, for example by using the wifi router of my provider to create a wifi network, then using an extension of WiFi that is connected to A WiFi network and connect my TC via ethernet connected on WiFi extender set up my TC as a bridge and the creation of a WiFi B with my TC that I can use with my devices. It works fine, but I wonder if there is something I'm missing or a better solution or possible issues related to this configuration.

  My internet needs TC that the ethernet source and I wonder what I could do to work around this problem.

  In a Word, nothing. The TC must connect to a network by using a wired Ethernet cable connection. The only exception to this would be a Workbench where you already have a router Apple providing a wireless signal, in which case the TC can connect wireless to "extend" the network.

  This is how the TC must be connected to the network of the apartment. If your extension does not work with the network of the apartment, an AirPort Express could be used to 'join' the network wireless of the apartment, and then provide an Ethernet connection to the Treasury Board.

• Extending Apple WiFi

  I have a base station extreme in my basement and then 3 units Airport Express in my whole House connected through ethernet cables, creating a network of 'Roaming '. (I think that's the right terminology).

  Each express uses the same SSID and password as the main base station and I am able to work transparently throughout the pipe and I have good coverage throughout.

  I'm now trying to get coverage outside in the garden in a hut that I just built. When my iPhone is connected to the network, and I walk outside in the backyard in the cabin I can just about keep generally the smaller 'bar' on the wifi signal but it is very poor and spotty coverage. If I disable the wifi on my phone and turn it back on, I usually don't even 'see' my network SSID when you are in the shed in the back yard.

  I have power in the cabin but no Cat5. I would get another AE and plug it into the cabin and extend my wireless network.

  I read about it online, and from the Apple Web site, it reads as follows:

  «If another extended ➋ terminal of Wi - Fi is placed between primary ➊ Terminal Wi - Fi and the prolonged use of Wi - Fi base station ➌, the ➌ extended station basic Wi - Fi will not allow clients join.» "Any extended Wi - Fi base stations must be direct scope of station primary base of Wi - Fi.

  If my ' primary WiFi base station is my main Airport Extreme base station in my basement, so this could be a problem because I do not think I would choose the (however weak) signal in the shed of the base station, I think I have pick up one of the AE (hard wired) units I have in my kitchen (close to the backyard).» However, if because my AE units are hard wired via Cat5, and I have a "mobile network" should be ok "extension" my network with a new AE in the shed, assuming that it can 'see' some of the signal?

  My apologies for the convoluted message. TIA (thanks in advance)

  The example you cited applies to networks wireless extended.

  You cannot have a base > AE wireless > wireless AE setup as it comes to multiple jumps wireless.

  In theory, if you have a roaming network, each Airport Express device should be broadcasting from the main network and is connected via a cable, so you should be able to extend the wireless network out to the backyard using an another AE, as long as it is in the range of one of the devices on the network roaming, i.e. your AE kitchen current.

  The good thing is that you can test it before buying an another AE as long as you don't mind having to adjust the configuration of one of them temporarily.

  Take one of the Airport Express units around the House (i.e., not one that is closer to the backyard), reset the default device, and then use Airport utility to re - set up to extend the wireless network. It in the House at the moment so that the unit is without any doubt in the range of the network. Once you have configured and tested (e.g., is light green), take it out to the cabin, plug it in and see what happens.

• Cannot set the Airport Extreme to extend the existing network

  Network WiFi of my holiday home is provided by the router from my ISP (Time Warner). I have an Airport Extreme, which used to be configured to provide the WiFi network to another well, and I would use it to extend the existing on the TWC router network.

  I had a lot of trouble to do a factory reset on the Airport Extreme, but I'm sure I managed (by turning on with the pressed reset button) after several attempts. At least the extreme doesn't show signs of the old network, he has provided.

  When I try to set it up in the Airport utility, he wants only to create a new network. If I click on 'Other Options' and select 'Add to an existing network', the next screen is titled "This Airport Extreme will create a network" and prompts to enter a new network name and password. (Specifying the name of the network current generates an error because the network already exists, as I expect for the creation of a new network.)

  Any ideas on how to tweak this Airport Extreme by extending a network?

  TIA,

  Doug

  P.S. I have reviewed plugging extreme in one of the TWC router EtherNet ports and create its own WiFi network (with the advantage of adding support for 5 GHz), but the last time I tried I lost all connectivity; I'm afraid that the ISP network might protect against too broad network, although the glitch may have been a coincidence. If anyone has experience/ideas on this alternative configuration, I might be willing to try again.

  AirPort Extreme would not be able to connect using a wireless connection and to extend the wireless network of the ISP, but if you can connect the AirPort Extreme to the ISP using a permanent router, wired Ethernet cable, then AirPort Extreme could be used to provide broader coverage of wireless in this way signal.

• Windows 8 will not list my home wifi network

  Just installed Windows 8 on my laptop HP Pavilion dv7 that was under Windows 7. Now, he does not list my home wifi network, and if I try to manually enter it says it's already there. How to recognize my network?

  Vinod, I tried all of your advice without success and finally finished by calling the technical support of Microsoft Chat. A very competent technician, Urso U., quickly found the problem. Given that Windows 8 has been to see all my neighbors WiFi networks, he immediately handed to zero on my router settings. Well, it seems Windows 8 dislikes the "extended" mode 802.11 g who was broadcasting my Motorola WiFi Modem cable. By changing this one just setting and uninstalling and reinstalling the WiFi RealTek card in Device Manager (to restore its settings), my laptop now happily running on my home network. Thank you all!

• iTunes crashes if its wifi network does not have access to the internet

  Hi all.

  I'm running a 13 "mac book pro with OS X El Capitan.

  I have a very specific problem of iTunes which is really bugging me.  I'm a pro saxophone player and part of my job is performed as a soloist with playbacks on my mac.  To avoid having to walk to the mac to start the track to accompany each song, I use a tablet on a stand that I can place anywhere in the room.  I've set up a router next to the mac that the mac and the tablet of connect to, and I run "retune" on the Tablet (I think it's that his name) which is a wifi iTunes remotely.  Installation is really smart cos he allows me to choose new avenues of selection from anywhere in the room instead of walking back and forwards to the mac every time.

  The problem I have is that sometimes maybe (1 to 5 times), I have a real problem from iTunes when the mac is connected to a wifi network that has no real internet connection.  I'm sure that iTunes detects wifi connection and then tries to access the internet to connect with the store.  When he is not in the store it just crashes and I get the spinning wheel of death.  Most of the time, I can simply restart the program several times and finally he decided to play ball, but it's a real pain.  And I did a concert yesterday where he would not have enough, no matter what I did.  If I had no choice but to turn off the router and keep walking to the mac for each song.

  I can't find a setting anywhere on iTunes that can disable the connection to the store and I really am stuck.

  I also tried alternative programs (I used Clementine briefly but I just found it too flakey to be invoked) and so I am open to others suggests.  But I need a player who has a remote app that I can use on my tablet.

  Thanks in advance for the help.

  I use an older version of iTunes and in the preferences a lot, I can disable Store, Radio, sharing services, probably genius if I got it. Check all your preferences settings including those you think don't matter such as parental preferences (this is where the store is hidden on mine).  Realize also that iTunes has turned into a simple multimedia player to a 75% of sales and marketing as well as the do-it-all tool (aka bloatware) try too many at once and developers can't even imagine someone (i.e. the daily target user) use it without Internet.  Add on that you try to use an application to control iTunes and something like that is likely to misbehave, willy nilly whenever Apple launches an update.

  Don't forget with wi - fi you are subject to interfering signals other wi - fi services in the region or the stage equipment.

• No display wireless or WiFi networks

  I got iOS 10 since I was a notification for the update. But this morning when I tried to sync new music in my iPhone 6, my internet has suddenly disappeared for some reason, I thought it was my router so I decided to reset my router, it has not solved anything. So I decided to reset my network settings, that nothing happened also. Then I tried to erase everything from my phone and make up the whole as a new phone, nothing happened. Now, I decided to downgrade my phone to iOS 9.3.5, the problem still don't have resolve.

  I know that the fact the my router is not act because the iPhone of my 5s sister who is on iOS 10 is connected to our internet connection. IPhone my mother 6 s is also connected to our internet connection. So, what would be the problem with my phone? Because neither it connects or even show any wifi network. (It is proven because I went to my aunt's House to check if it is possible what our router, also rendered to a mall to check always nothing happens) I hope someone can help me.

  Thank you
