• 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?

• 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.

• External SSD hard drive not detected by Airport Extreme/Time Capsule

  Hello everyone, I have the following problem:

  Framework

  -HD was formatted as OS x journaled Extended

  -J' tried smb and cifs via 'connect to server', but does not work.

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Unfortuantely, Apple did not update the firmware on the USB key (it is still 2.0) port on their routers for a number of years.  As a result, new USB 3.0 drives may or may not work with airports.

  Yes, we know that USB 3.0 is supposed to be backward compatible with USB 2.0 in theory, but theory does not always work in practice.

  If your drive is formatted as Mac OS extended (journaled)... also called HFS +... .and you have tried the drive with and without a USB hub powered and the reader will not be displayed with you check using the AirPort Utility disks tab... then you have one of a number of readers who do not work with routers from the airport.

  I just checked a new LaCie USB 3.0 drive I have here. It works perfectly with a Mac, but it appears not at all when I connect it to the USB port or a powered new AirPort Extreme or new Time Capsule directly, or by using a USB hub.

• Time Capsule will not extend the Airport Extreme network

  My airport extreme (do not know what version... can't even find it in the system report) offers a WiFi modem. I have a Time Capsule 4 G which extends the network. This works well for a few years now. Suddenly, the CAP began flashing yellow. Time capsule said Airport utility cannot extend the network and I should make sure the password is correct, that it is in the signal of a network, etc. I went through the settings of the time capsule by ensuring that passwords are correct. It is certainly within the range of the signal of the airport extreme (they are both in the same place as always... Besides, I put my iPhone next to the time capsule and I get a signal strong). I tried a hard reset of the time capsule. Of course, this does not work.

  Time Capsule seems to be communicating with the computer very well. I can access it via the Airport utility and reboot. I can access the data on its disk backup. Airport Extreme is to give a signal of good wi - fi connection. I'm still able to pick it up with my computer (even if my computer is far more than the time capsule).

  Someone has an idea of what's going on?

  Given that the Capsule does not correctly connect unless everything is OK with the AirPort Extreme... I suggest that you turn off the time Capsule for now and check that everything works correctly on the AirPort Extreme.

  My airport extreme (do not know what version... can't even find it in the system report)

  You say that the AirPort Extreme does not appear when you open AirPort Utility?

  If so, press and hold the option on your Mac key while you double-click on the image of the AirPort Extreme.

  Model of the AirPort Extreme, you will appear at the top of the summary page. What is it?

  Near the bottom of the summary page, check to see if there is a parameter that is displayed for the State.  If there is, what is the message next to status?

• provider changed vague Qwest and now one device connects to the net.  Seems to not be recognizing the airport extreme.  Patches?

  Decided to change providers.  Network domestic fine fixed by extreme airport which has been consulted by 9 apple devices and windows device.  After the wave was installed yesterday, the only device able to connect is the cell that was active at the time of installation.  Is this a problem with my airport extreme or vague does not not with mac?  All the patches would be appreciated.

  After the wave was installed yesterday, the only device able to connect is the cell that was active at the time of installation.

  Sounds like Installer connected your laptop directly to a modem to put in place the new connection.  If that's what happened, then the modem will recognize your laptop, but it will not recognize the AirPort Extreme, then it will appear as if only your laptop can get a connection.

  The modem and AirPort Extreme should probably be reset and then set it up again. We'll know more soon.

  Can you provide the number of brand and model of the modem that was shipped with your service?

  What operating system uses the laptop?

• The settings DHCP Airport extreme & NAT - cannot change default of NAT IPs?

  Hello

  I'm trying to configure Airport extreme, the most convenient to use for our office.

  Our Office IP is 10.255.x.x

  When I'm trying to Setup DHCP and NAT, in NAT options, there is only 10.0.x.x, 172.16.x.x and 192.168.x.x

  How can I get NAT to have 10.255.x.x?

  Without the NAT settings, I can not get this Airport Extreme to assign valid IP addresses and so unnecessary

  Sorry, but Apple will only accept the 10.0.x.x addresses to be assigned by the AirPort Extreme.

• Thinking of adding Airport Extreme for Google Fiber

  Hello world. Wanted to start a new question related to Google fiber... slightly different from the issue of Back2Mac earlier.

  I just Google fiber. House is wired throughout with CAT6. Wired connection works fine. Wireless is great, sometimes, but do not receive the beach or the consistency we want.

  Can I add an Airport Extreme, hard connected to the Google fiber network box (which is a router, "PNG" for short) and everything work well and be safe?

  There is a lot of information out there, but most are very technical and I think talking to try to take the PNG of the equation all together. I don't need or want to do. Looking to replace PNG with a wireless Airport Extreme wireless. I think that all that I have to connect the Airport Extreme to PNG by wire, set the Airport Extreme in Bridge mode and "create a wireless network" and disable wireless of PNG.

  I have not bought the Airport Extreme and wouldn't bother, if it will be technically above my head. I've seen many references to static port forwarding, DMZ, IP, etc.. Are there others that should be configured to secure my installation? In addition, the activity of the network of wired and wireless devices will share work together (for example, iPhone wireless to AppleTV wired antenna)?

  Thank you and appreciate any help anyone has for a novice with little network experience!

  Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the ports on the fibre-optic LAN <>router - port WAN "O" on the AirPort Extreme.

  Turn AirPort Extreme for a minute or two.

  Click the WiFi menu at the top of the screen on your Mac and are looking for a list of new AirPort base station.

  Click on AirPort Extreme just below this list.

  

  Who will get the facility operational Apple "Wizard". It will take a few seconds to analyze the network, and then display a screen similar to the example below, except that you will see a picture of the AirPort Extreme.

  

  Name of the network... Type a short and simple name that you want to call the wireless network

  Base station... Enter a device name short and simple that you want to use for AirPort Extreme

  Password... Type a password that will be used for the wireless network and a base station

  Check... Type the same password to confirm

  Click next

  The "Wizard" will configure everything for you automatically. ... then you don't have to worry about things like the 'bridge', 'security' mode or other parameters.

  When you see the message Setup is complete, click done, and you're done.

• WD My Passport drive external drive will not mount once my Macbook Pro is already on

  Hello

  I actually had this problem for a year or two, but I'm finally getting bugged to this topic enough to see if it can be 'fixed '.

  I have a 2 to WD My Passport portable HD connected to my macbook pro via an external (wall outlet) powered TRUST 5 x USB3 Hub.  If everything is connected, when I start the macbook pro there is no problem and the WD My Passport is mounted in the finder.  But if I remove manually the hard drive and then try to mount it again while the macbook pro is running it doesn't mount not.  It used to, but he won't now.

  In the past the WD My passport would need to unplug and perhaps the USB3 hub would need power cable disconnect from him and the USB hubs out the macbook pro.  So when I joined this new and plugged the hard drive WD in the hub, it would rise very well.  But now it's just point blank refuses to ride until I restart the macbook pro.  Once I restart it it climbs perfectly and stays up forever--until it is dismantled manually - and then I have to restart the macbook pro again so he could mount once more.

  I tried all combinations of pull cables and adapters to power but nothing has worked.  After dismantling the WD hd and plug back on the USB3 light led on the hub hub lights up and the hard drive turns manually, but, as I say, it is not mount and it is not visible in disk utility.

  Any ideas please?  It's a bit annoying to have to keep restarting the mac whenever I had to unplug the hard drive WD.

  "As issued" WD Passport appear to cause a number of reports of trouble around here. You have already taken the first "not best" - using a powered hub. Just make sure that the hub is really power (lights on, for example). It could be that the external drive is in its death throws.

  This happen if the WD is the only thing on the powered hub?

  The Mac USB ports work with other devices?

  Here's what my experience with these things has believing me. WD made great bare discs, but I can't be so kind to their pens. Three questions:

  (1) I think that they should use chipsets which are not very easy to Mac.

  (2) most driving the ship formatted for Windows

  (3) even those shipped as "Mac editions have some odd which makes it difficult to access file formatting.

  If you do not have to share the drive with a Windows computer, you can reformat the drive and that often fixes "fail to mount/recognize" question. Disk utility is your tool of choice here because it is already installed on your Mac. Completely erase the WD drive by selecting the tab 'Clear' in the bar tabs to disk utility. Define the plan of Partition to GUID Partition map and journaled for Mac extended format. Press the button 'clear '. The reader will now will be rid of eccentric WD partitioning and formatting schemes and be a good Mac hard drive.

  If you share the road with a Windows computer, consider getting a better workout. After having fought external drives 'brand' on my computers and others that I maintain, I now use only boxes of other computer world with naked WD drives inside. Since this change, I have zero problems. For my MacBook Pro, I use this forum:

  https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/OWC/MEPMU3ES/

  I ordered the external power optionally for use at home and go on the road bus-powered. It's an empty envelope - just a hard drive of nu. They are more expensive than the stuff that Staples puts on sale every weekend, but are much more reliable. I ask the question. "What is my value data?"

• Windows 7 computer to connect to Airport Extreme with an external USB drive attached. Flash drive appears for the network map but not the hard drive.

  original title: drive hard extreme airport

  Using Windows 7 and the Airport Extreme.  The Airport Extreme has a USB port that can be used to mount an external hard drive which is accessible via the wireless connection.  Only thing is, I can't get a 2 GB flash drive will appear for mapping.  When I use the other hard drives, they never show upward for mapping.  They show that it is connected to the Airport Extreme, but are not seen by my PC.   The internet has a rumor according to which hard drives will show up only on a PC if they are to FAT32... which would work without another formatted hard drive.  What do you know about my problems of compatibility with hard drives?

  Hello

  Check updates firmware for the Airport Extreme.

  Airport Extreme

  Airport - Support
  http://www.Apple.com/support/airport/

  ---------------------

  Although I think that the question is really the Airport Extreme also updates Windows 7 WiFi.
  Check with the system manufacturer and the real device manufacturer updates the driver.

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
  below is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
  found)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

  You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

  After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version.
  (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

  Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as windows
  7 love the updated drivers.

  I hope this helps.

• 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?

• sparsebundle disk image not mounting

  I've recently upgraded to Mac OS Sierra and now I can not mount an image of disk sparsebundle.

  I enter the password, and then nothing happens.

  I tried the same image on a Mac running Leopard and it opens fine.

  I tried a few other sparsebundle some and other encrypted disk images not. Some are open very well, but others do not.

  So, it doesn't seem to be a problem of sparsebundle encrypted disk image.

  Any suggestions?

  After investigation a little more the problem is Sophos AV

  Turn it off and the disk mount fine images.

• EFI disk0s1 not mounted. screen shows gray with help file when I restart

  I had these problems with my recent Mac.

  1. it freezes for a few seconds. Then begins to work properly. And then freezes. The beachball keeps spinning and I can't access any of the applications.

  I tried restarting. But came up with another question. The gray screen of the charges and file aid continues to Flash.

  I tried from the recovery mode, but I get the Internet (OS X Lion). I'm under El Capitan. In disk utility, I check and repair the drive. Stop and try again. Now, there are two current icons and off - no logo entry sign and apple. If I'm lucky then after 40-50 seconds, Mac starts up.

  Now, I tried to make the EtreCheck, and he gave me more results for disc

  That's what worry?

  
  

  What can I do to fix these problems?

  Disk0 unit 1 is not the problem. This is the EFI partition, which is never mounted, because it is used only by the bootstrapper, long before that the file system is initialized.

  Your problem is 70 errors in disk0 tranche 2, the volume Macintosh HD. This hard drive (the entire disc) was his. Dead. in ruins. You need a new drive.

• External CD drive will not mount on OSX

  An external CD/DVD drive will not mount on my iMac running the latest OSX update. I'm on my second CD drive (sorry Amazon). When I insert an audio CD, it is recognized. I am able to rip the CD fine, but then the Player responds neither to open unless I unplug the USB to which I am able to open it and change the CD I tried to use external power to the player. That

  s not the question. Disk Util sees only after fresh USB connection. Profile of sys can see at any time. Back to zero does not correct the problem is it better that disconnect and reconnect. All OS updates have been applied. No other devices or software problems. Y at - it a tip. This should be simple and Yes, CD player works on a Windows machine, but I have not yet tried on another machine from Apple.
