• Airport extreme for modem cable via an ethernet switch?

  I can connect the airport extreme to the modem cable via an ethernet switch, or must the extreme connect directly to the modem?

  The answer to your question depends on what type of "modem" cable you may have.

  If you have a simple modem, as in the example below with a single port Ethernet, your network should look like this:

  Internet > Modem > AirPort Extreme > Switch and other devices.

  

  If you have a modem/router, which is actually a modem and a router separate which are combined in a single package, looking for something like the example below, your network may look like this:

  Internet > Modem/Router > switch > AirPort Extreme and other devices

  or... it might look like this:

  Internet > Modem/Router > AirPort Extreme > switch and other devices

  

  If you do not know what kind of modem you have, post back with the number of brand and model of the device that you call your "modem", and we will do some checking.

• How to see what the music is associated with one old apple ID?

  I have a huge itunes library.  I bought a lot of music itunes ten years, but I no longer remember the password associated with the account and can't get back into that old email.

  A lot of old pop albums now upward with a prompt to enter in this old apple ID and password. ("This computer is not allowed to read _.  You want to allow? ") I think it's impossible that Apple will never be persuaded to grant me access to the purchase of my old, because of course that they would prefer just to buy it all again.  It was all accounts in debit of one thousand cards, different States, different computers, PC, mac, etc. only my name is the same.  If I'm wrong, pls let me know.

  At this point, I just want to replace it all myself, but I don't know what to replace.  Is there a way to identify what parts of my library are associated with a particular apple id without actually connecting to this id?

  I think it's impossible that Apple will never be persuaded to grant me access to the purchase of my old, because of course that they would prefer just to buy it all again.

  I don't think that's true.  Apple profit comes mainly from the sale of hardware products.  Services such as iTunes Store probably make money, but they also exist for 'value' for Apple hardware customers, so that they will continue to Apple hardware customers.  According to my experience, customers of iTunes Store was accommodating when I needed their help to fix a problem with my iTunes Store account.

  You will need to contact them directly, however (don't be not contradictory).  Most of the responses here (Apple users discussion forum) are your fellow users of Apple, but I saw a response with an Apple logo recently, in the section below.  I think the answer applies to your situation

  My iMac won't play songs purchased with an ID previous Apple is in the system.iMac, 2.8 Ghz, 4 GB Ram, OSX 10.11.2, iTunes 12.3.2.35

  The key is to get your reactive old Apple ID.  You may be able to retrieve your forgotten password.  If you do this, you can allow your current with this old ID Apple Mac (although it is authorized for former and current Apple ID), and these old purchased songs will play.

• How know if the router or modem cable is the problem with bad internet?

  I have intermittent problems of internet home.  The internet goes out for very short periods, then back on several times a day. At various periods of time, usually in bunches up.  Then sometimes instead of being down for maybe a normal 15-30 seconds, it could last 5-20 minutes.  And there are also periods of hours sometimes where the speed is VERY slow.

  When he is not at all working, Airport utility looks like in the following screenshot, with the orange Internet and other green devices.  Sometimes, it only shows the Internet icon and light, with nothing else underneath.  If the internet is very slow (and I mean really slow, like minute 2 page load or not at all), everything is green, including the Internet icon.

  

  It is the Charter cable with a modem surfboard, connected to an older Airport Extreme (in mode not wireless) model, which is connected to three aircraft from the airport, you can see in the screenshot.  Everything works very well for 8 years, but these problems have taken place in recent months. I replaced since the cable modem for a brand new, I have reset the Airport Extreme to the factory settings and tried all sorts of other things.

  It isn't the wireless aspect, because I can connect a computer to the ethernet jack and it has the same problems.

  So here's what I want to know: is there a way I can tell if it's the Airport Extreme or if it's the Internet Charter being flaky?  (I know it's not the cable modem because it does the same thing that before I replaced it).  I just want to isolate the problem. I don't want to succumb to Charter calling again, as we think the run around, I'm going to forward all tech would come home, and they never admits to have flaky internet.

  I bought a bolt of lightning to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter so I can plug my Macbook Air directly into the cable modem, without going through the Airport Extreme, but internet is not stay down long enough for me to access, plug it in and reboot the cable modem.   Frustrating.

  Suggest that you connect the MacBook Air directly to the modem, connect the Mac to the Internet and keep an eye on the MacBook Air from time to time for at least one day complete.  A few days would be even better, if possible.

  If the connection remains strong during your 'test', based on other information that you provide as...

  connected to an older model Airport Extreme

  and

  Everything works very well for 8 years

  The first thought that comes to mind is that life expectancy, on average, for airport routers is about 5 years. It's on food, on average, at the start of the descent position.  Momentary grave start occurring, and the drops will increase in frequency over time.

  It is a bet of $20, but you might consider replacing the external power for AirPort Extreme see if that provides any assistance.  This does nothing for the internal power inside the airport of course components.

• Problem with TC loss of connection to the modem cable

  I have a TC of 2 TB which is connected to my ISP provided by cable modem. It worked fine for 3 months after the installation in December, but now all of a sudden it will lose its connection to the modem and we lose our wireless internet. We have replaced the modem cable and it does not solve the problem. I have to reset the TC 2 - 3 times a day. Nothing else has changed recently with regard to the network set up. that only changes were to specific devices that use the wifi connection, and this was always something changing, depending on the devices we use. Any thoughts? I'm not a savvy person tech, BTW.

  We need to ask a few questions in order to learn more on what the possible cause of the problem might be.  Please be patient with this. Thank you.

  What is the number and the model of the modem you are using right now?  We ask because some modems work better than others with Apple routers, and even if you have changed the modem, it could still be a model who does not get along well with the Apple router... or... you could say that the router from Apple does not get along well with the modem.

  How old is the TC? We ask because the life expectancy, on average, a time capsule is about 3 years.  After that, they tend to start losing connections to an ever-increasing rate.

  Who is your provider of Internet (ISP) Service?  We ask because most suppliers are in the active process of implementation of a new type of connection called IPv6 in their systems... and despite ISPS claiming that their system changes should cause no difficulties connection or interruptions system... which doesn't seem to be the case at all.

  We have seen an unusual number of reports from users who suddenly have problems with their ISP connection, when things were very well for many months before. That points directly to the IPv6 changes that ISPS are doing as the culprit. In some cases, there could be way to work around the problem, and in some cases, there is nothing to do but wait as the ISP to complete their changes and be everything to speed.

• Upgrade to modem cable with router?

  I plan to upgrade my modem cable to take advantage of the increased speed that Comcast now offers in our region. I think my Airport Extreme of 2007 could be a brake on the increase in the speed of a new modem. I would like to know if it is better to buy a new modem cable with built-in wifi router.

  My current Airport Extreme supports two iMacs (24 "in 2007 and a 27 '' 2010), two iPhones and iPad two minis. My current cable modem offers 34 mb/s download speeds and download about 6 MB/s.

  I will be grateful for any advice... Thank you

  I think my Airport Extreme of 2007 could be a brake on the increase in the speed of a new modem.

  There are 2 different versions of AirPort Extreme offered in 2007... a 1st generation version and the 2nd generation.

  The 1st generation version will manage an Internet connection speed of up to about 100 Mbps. The 2nd generation version will manage up to 350-400 Mbps.

  If your new service provider will be 100 Mbit/s or lower, it is not really important what version you have. Either the version of AirPort Extreme will take care of this service.

  If your new service will be 100 + Mbps, then you will have the Gen version 2nd of the airport to take advantage of the higher speeds.

  IF you have the 1st generation AirPort Extreme... And... your new service will be well above 100 Mbps... THEN... it might be a good idea to take a look at a new modem/router.

  HOWEVER... If your new service will be less than 100 Mbps... so you probably won't receive any improvement with a new modem/router and it would be wise to simply continue to use the airport until it fails.

  So an important question here might be... what version of AirPort Extreme do you have?

  Another important issue could be... your current modem will support the service high speed?

  Open the AirPort on your Mac utility and you should be able to know which version of airport you have.  If you can provide the serial number and model of your modem, we will see if we can find out what he can do.

  If you wondering if Comcast, you should know that the person you speak to will probably receive a bonus if you order a new modem or new modem/router...so you may not receive an unbiased opinion on their part.

  Finally, there are a number of users who believe that, as a general rule that you need to replace a modem or a router in about 5 years... even if it doesn't work OK. So, you might get some interesting opinions together.

• What is the best HDMI switch for use with Apple tv 4

  What is the best HDMI switch for use with Apple tv 4. I heard some do not work and the automatic switch has problems because Apple tv is still using power?

  I installed on a cutting and not because the automatic switch works because it isn't always. It came with a remote control that is almost as good, so don't mind the fact that automatic switching does not work well. The reason why I chose cutting is because it was the first device that gave me the good picture and sound quality with my AppleTV, the Xbox 360 and the PS4. (Don't ask!)

• Satellite M60: Little or no connectivity with the Modem cable

  Hello.

  I just got a Satellite M60, and I'll have limited connectivity or none when I try to connect to the internet via my Modem cable through the local network.
  OS is WIN XP Home SP2 PTG and I restored the original instalation, but nothing seems to work.
  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  Hello

  What do you mean by limited connectivity?
  Did you check the system for viruses and worms?
  On the other hand, the active virus protection software can make your stream slowly or active. In addition, you check the cable lan for a few bows.

• computer not automatically standby (formerly titled "impossible computer automatically sleep when it is connected to the internet with modem cable")

  Hi, I noticed recently that my computer (Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005) is unable to sleep automatically when it is connected to the internet with a cable modem. Change the settings for my current power mode and try a different feeding regime (diagrams of Windows XP default power and power management, I created) only solves the problem for 2 days at most. I also tried to change the settings for the other power plans mentioned, and yet once again, the problem was only set for two days at the most. I also tried turning off my computer, restarting my computer, recording Powercfg /Restore Default policies in Run, saving sfc/scannow in Run, and again, I got the same result. Reset and power cycling the modem cable is not helped either. To help you better understand the problem, for example, if I had the date set for the screensaver set to 1 minute, the time for the monitor to turn off set to 2 minutes and time for your computer set to 3 minutes, the screen saver activate after 1 minute, the monitor turns off after 2 minutes, but the computer would not sleep mode after 3 minutes , even after an hour or more. I tried to check the Task Manager, and I have not noticed any process that would be interrupting the day before. However, I noticed that when I turned on the monitor by moving the mouse, even when the computer was unable to sleep and unplugged the ethernet cable from the cable modem and waited, the computer has entered standby as it should have.  I tried to find a solution for more than a week, contributions for this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. (Update: it seems that the problem is something else then my cable modem.)

  Hello

  Thank you for the update.

  This behavior can occur because of possible conflicts of third-party software, which includes the third-party security software.

  You can also temporarily disable third-party security software and firewalls installed on the system and check the issue.

  If disabling the antivirus software solves the problem, you may need to configure the settings of the antivirus as a result program. Please contact the software vendor for assistance in this regard.

  Note: be sure to enable the security software on the computer after checking the issue.

  Note: When you perform a clean boot, you can activate services for the modem, network card and disable third-party services to check the issue.

  Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

• 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.

• Find the best modem / router configuration.

  Be 'stuck' with wimpy CenturyLink DSL service (read 4 Mbps), I try to get every ounce of speed that I can with my configuration of a Wi - Fi. The material in question is a Technicolor C1100T modem/router/WiFi and a current model Apple AirPort Extreme.

  The question is, whose Setup is faster:

  [A] C1100T in Bridge Mode (i.e. modem only) > AirPort Extreme all the PPPoE router / WiFi work, or

  [B] C1100T modem handling / PPPoE - router work > AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode, just do a Wi - Fi connection?

  The C1100T goes only up to speed "n" where the Airport manages 'ac '. So my thought is the configuration 'B' may have an advantage. I thought I would ask the collective wisdom of the community of Apple before playing with all the related parameters. Speaking of which, overall the Apple hardware, the PPPoE "Account name" is always shown as formatting as an email (e.g. [email protected]) address. In the C1100T admin settings, the PPP username (PPPoE) is in the format ABC123456789. Formats in the case of AirPort Utility parameters (i.e. it will accept Qwest format)?

  As long as we talk about press speed, are there any other tricks, for example by selecting the best channels 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (assuming that one is faster than the other)? Literally, living in the Woods, there is no one else around with any related Wi - Fi signal to interfere.

  As always, thanks for the help!

  The question is, whose Setup is faster:

  [A] C1100T in Bridge Mode (i.e. modem only) > AirPort Extreme all the PPPoE router / WiFi work, or

  [B] C1100T modem handling / PPPoE - router work > AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode, just do a Wi - Fi connection?

  Not trying to be cute here, but if the products work correctly, the results will be the same.

  However... speed could be one thing and another reliability.  Setting PPPoE Apple are old and is not known for their reliability.  As you know, in theory, you want the device that provides identification of connection information to connect directly to the Internet service.  This would mean that have C1100T PPPoE c would probably be a better way to do things, reliability wise.

  The C1100T goes only up to speed "n" where the Airport manages 'ac '. So my thought is the installation of 'B' may have an advantage

  Not in terms of connection to the Internet.  If you are thinking about speed on your local network, the airport would be the way to go. Just ignore the C1100T, or turn off the wireless feature if you feel that it can interfere with wireless the wireless AirPort.

  Speaking of which, overall the Apple hardware, the PPPoE "Account name" is always shown as formatting as an email (e.g. [email protected]) address. In the C1100T admin settings, the PPP username (PPPoE) is in the format ABC123456789. Formats in the case of AirPort Utility parameters

  No, but I would not use PPPoE over airport.  If you have tons of time and be ready to experiment and put up with connections, more broken then you could try PPPoE on the airport.

  As long as we talk about press speed, are there any other tricks, for example by selecting the best channels 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (assuming that one is faster than the other)?

  N ° the most convenient airport at startup, it automatically scans to select a channel that meets the criteria set by Apple engineers. As soon as it finds one, he chooses.

  If someone really knew what could be the real criteria you had tons of time on your hands, in theory, it may be possible to guess and select a channel as good as who will pick up the airport.

• How close my TC must be to my modem cable?

  No matter how close I place my modem cable to my time capsule? Because only the TC will issue wireless signal I assumed that there would be no interference. Am I wrong? The modem is declining by the signal several times a day and I was wondering what could interfere with the signal. Should I ask a new modem IP address?

  Thank you

  Michael

  At this point, you really don't know if you have a problem with the modem, dropping the signal... or the TC dropping the signal.

  The way to know is temporarily connect your computer directly to the modem using an Ethernet cable connection, turn it off wireless on the computer and keeps things set up that way for a day or two to watch the connection.

  If the signal continues to fall... so that points to a modem that is bad and must be replaced.

  However, if him you continue to have a good signal without problems when the computer is connected directly to the modem, then the model is fine and the problem can probably be with the TC... and additional troubleshooting will be required.

  If the modem does not transmit a wireless signal, the TC can be found anywhere you want within reasonable limits... but you do not want to locate the TC on top of the modem or something like that. Leave a margin for products to get some air.

• BEFSR41 wired router affected by change of modem cable

  Hi all

  You don't know if someone here can help me with a problem with the router above following a change of modem, I can get things to work, but once everything is turned off, the next time it starts things are back to how they were.

  To give a bit of history...

  My setup is a G4 Mac and a Xbox 360 Elite connected to a wired router BEFSR41, which in turn is connected to my cable modem, I am based in the United Kingdom so my ISP is Virgin Media.

  This configuration has been absolutely rock solid for more than 3 years, but last Sunday, I was unable to connect to internet and I noticed that the light on the modem was flashing instead of be constant, as it is supposed to be.

  I called Virgin and they did a test signal and confirm there is a problem and sent an engineer. He arrived Tuesday and confirmed the modem was very old and had packed and replaced by a new. We rebooted everything and everything was fine, I could email and get out on the internet as before.

  It worked fine the next day too but on Thursday morning, despite the fire loan being constant on the modem, I couldn't online again. I called Virgin and they did another test signal and said that something did not look right and they would send another engineer.

  He came Friday (different GUY), but confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the modem, the signal is OK just to verify, plugged the Mac directly into the modem, bypassing the router and I could get on the internet without problem.

  It seems that the router is at fault, but I have to say that it is a massive coincidence that it has stopped working correctly two days after the modem has been change, so I was looking at the configuration of the router via my browser page, and the only thing I did was to confirm under Type of Internet connection that "automatically an IP address to get" has been selected and I saved the settings and bingo everything works well again.

  So I put off, Mac, router and modem and switched back them and I'm at square one, no internet access. If I go to the router setup page again, "get automatically an IP address' is still selected and if I hit again 'save settings' everything works fine.

  I then started to bounce back each element separately and by turning the router or the mac on / off does not affect access, I am still able to get on the net, but as soon as I bounce the modem, I'm in the place again until I have click on 'save' on the router set up page.

  It's just my head in - what is the modem to the router to make it 'lose' its parameters and specifically, how to fix?

  I must say I don't remember when I bought the router through any complex installation, it is basically out of the box, go hooked upward and worked for 3 years and more.

  Any suggestions would be very welcome.

  Nick

  As far as I know, it seems that you have a cable modem.

  Your BEFSR41 should work with your modem when the BEFSR41 has been reset by default.  In addition, in some cases, you may need to 'clone' of the MAC address of the computer (the one that works when you connect it to the modem) in your BEFSR41.

  To reset your router by default, follow these steps:

  (1) turn off all computers, the router and the modem and disconnect from the wall.
  (2) disconnect all the wires of the router.
  (3) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
  (4) press in and hold the reset for 30 seconds button, then release it, then let the router reset and restart (2-3 minutes).
  (5) turn the router.
  (6) connect a computer cable to port 1 of the router (NOT to the internet port).
  (7) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
  (8) the power of the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it's off).
  (9) try ping on the router. To do this, click the 'Start' button > all programs > Accessories > command prompt. A black DOS window will appear. Enter the following text: "ping 192.168.1.1" (without the quotes) and press the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that begin with ' response to... ". "or"Request timed out". If you see "reply from...". ", your computer has found your router.
  (10) open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to the login page of your router. Let the empty user name (Note: some routers have a username "admin") and in the password field, enter "admin" (without the quotes). This will take you to your router configuration page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually found near upper right corner of the screen).

  (11) If you need to clone the MAC address of your computer, do this step now.

  (12) If you get this far without problems, quit your browser and put your entire network.  Then, using an ethernet cable, connect the ethernet port of your modem to the Internet port on the BEFSR41.  Leave your computer connected to a LAN of the BEFSR41 ports.  If your modem has a USB port, do not connect anything to it.  If your modem works with a battery, remove it now, and then wait one minute, then replace the battery.  Turn on your modem and let it start up completely (1-5 minutes).  Turn on your BEFSR41 and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).  Turn on your computer.  Try to connect to the Internet.  If you have a problem, temporarily disable your firewall software computer and try again to connect.  If you still have problems, see 'The replacement boot order' below.

  If you can not ' response to... ". "in step 9 above, your router is probably dead. A report with this problem

  If you get a response in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, is that your router is dead or the firmware is damaged. Related to this issue.

  If you need additional help, please give the results of steps 9 and 10. In addition, if you receive error messages, copy them exactly, and report.

  Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  Changing the boot order *.

  The boot order (modem, router, then computer) that I mentioned above is the classic boot order, and it works with most of the networks.  Some networks will work well if you turn on all devices at the same time.  However, the other networks is very picky about the way in which they are started, and they may also require a different boot order.  Sometimes, it can require a lot of experimenting until you find the boot order that works.  For example, I had once a system requiring that I start the router first, wait 5 minutes, and then start the modem and the computer.  Try different orders on your system until you find what works.

• Windows 8.1 and modem cable motorola 5100

  shouldn't windows finds a new device such as a cable modem, when you plug in say a connectedd USB cable for modem on my laptop? or an ethernet cable?

  I use a wifi router to access the internet, which through modem. I had a problem with a certain program, so would trouble shoot by bypassing the router... but when I plug in the modem direct, nothing happens, does not detect not either via Control Panel. the CD that came with the modem does not work with windows 8. the script fails or whatever...

  Hello

  How old is this modem?  I went to the user's Guide to verify the settings, etc. for you to try, and it seems that it is a modem DOCSIS 2.0 based.  Y at - it a newer version which is DOCSIS 3.0 compatible that you use?

  The documentation I found indicates that the modem is compatible only with Windows up through XP.  So unless there is an update of firmware for this modem, one recent, which upgrades the firmware to be compatible with Windows 8, I don't know how everything will work.

  In general, to answer your question, Yes, Windows will communicate with a modem, it is attached to, request and receive an IP address if it can communicate with the modem and everything should be automatic. Does not question whether it is wireless, USB or ethernet connection.   But, like I said, don't know how that would work, if it even will work with such older modem.

  Let me whether I'm looking for the wrong modem documentation and if so, please send me a link to the modem plug, and that's okay.  I'll see what I can do to help you.
