Airport Extreme - iMac and PC on the same network

Hello, I have one iMac and one PC sharing the same Internet connection and both computers are getting IP addresses via DHCP, which is configured on the Airport Extreme, for the local network. The Internet connection is working fine for both computers. The iMac and the PC can also ping the Airport Extreme ip address with no problems. The issue is that the two computers cannot ping each other.
Some facts:
- On the DHCP I configured the DHCP lease starting from 192.168.1.2 and ending with 192.168.1.10. The router has ip address 192.168.1.1, the iMac has ip address 192.168.1.2 and the PC 192.168.1.3.
- The iMac connects to the AE via wireless and the PC via cable. I already disabled the wireless network and connected the imac via cable without any change on the situation (iMac does not ping the PC and the PC does not ping the iMac).
Any suggestion or hint is really appreciated!

I can ping between Macs through my Time Capsule. You might check the firewall settings on both sides.

  • Airport extreme wired AND wireless at the same time?

    Very sorry for this newbie question. Can i have my iMac wired to my computer with ethernet and wireless at the same time?
    If so, what ports to i plug what into?
    My guess is modem-wan port on extreme and a cable going wired from the ethernet port on the extreme to the iMac?
    Do i need to do any configuring?
    Thanks!

    The operatibe word here is EXPRESS
    To the best of my knowledge the ethernet port on the express is for ethernet IN not out
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/AirPortExpressSetupGuide.pdf The pertinent diagrams are like page 20 - 25
    Now you can actually do what you are talking about with an extreme.. an extreme can, in theorey operate as an remote/relay taking incoming signal giving you one - four out bound ethernet ports
    that info can be found in the manual on setting up a WDS
    the only thing to remember is .. the weakest leg controls.. if your wireless signal to the relay is poor. any thing using the relay for access will also be poor
    I have found out the hard way about that
    hey you can get good price on bulk cat 5

  • Can two Apple IDs be linked so that they can share data? My iMac and iPad have the same Apple ID and sync contacts, bookmarks, etc. My wife's iPad has a different Apple ID. Can it be linked somehow to mine to share contacts etc?

    No. You cannot link your contacts to hers. However, you can use Home Sharing to share the information:

  • Mac and PC in the same network, but I can't see PC from mac, nor mac from pc

    I have  2 Mac and 1 PC in the same network (both connected to a wifi router ).  I can see the other mac from one of my mac, but I can never see my pc in my mac , nor mac in my pc. Help!

    In Finder, along the left hand side, is a group called "Shared".  Click on it, and it shows all other computers on the network.

  • TS2972 I've set up the Apple TV and it has the same network as my Mac but I just an't get it to show Mac content on the TV? Any ideas? It worked perfectly the first time I tried but not now!

    I've set up the Apple TV and both the TV & Mac have the same network but I just can't get the Mac content on the TV. It did work the first time I tried but not now. No Air Play Mirroring devices detected. I've reset everything but still no joy - any ideas?

    Disable any security software on the computer.
    Reboot the computer and the Apple TV.

  • How to use airport express wired and wireless at the same time

    Hi,
    I currently have FiOS with Verizon, they ran a coax cable to the Verizon router. I didn't ask them to switch to CAT6 cable since I have an airport extreme base station and an airport express base station (both are the newest generation). I ran a CAT6 cable from the Verizon FiOS router to my AEBS (extreme) to make it the default wireless router. The Verizon router and extreme are in one room. Now, the Airport express is in my living. I'd like to extend the wireless network from the extreme. However, I can't seem to find a way to use both wired and wireless from the airport express at the same time. It's now either via wired, or wiresless. So is there a way to get both work?

    Can you tell us if you used Apple's instructions for a "roaming" network?

    Although the instructions picture a 2nd AirPort Extreme in the illustrations, the setup instructions would be exactly the same for an AirPort Express.

  • Can I download FCPX on my imac and MBP using the same apple ID?

    Hello,  I am just wondering how it works with mac store apps.    I use both my imac and MBP for my work.   Will I have to re buy FCPX for both, or can I use it on both with the same apple id?   This works with apps on my 2 iphones and ipad, but I was not sure about imac and MBP.  
    Thank for any info you can give

    Don't mention it. Although I'm one of those dispised Americans. Worse yet, I come here for four or five months then leave. Then I tell all our American friends awful lies about Canadians.

  • Is imac and cinema display the same quality monitor?

    I'm looking to buy an imac but am really concerned about color quality. I currently have a cinema display and looking at this as a second computer. I've read some posts that suggest that the display technology in the imac is different than the quality of the display of the cinema displays. Yet from looking at the tech specs they appear pretty identical other than the glossy cover. Is this true?

    The 24" iMac should have the same image quality as a Cinema Display. The 20" iMac uses an inferior display.

  • Using iMac and Macbook at the same time (not as 2nd monitor)

    Hi all,
    So I have an iMac (2013) and a Macbook Air (2012). I do NOT want to get a Macbook Pro and an external monitor. Here's what I'd love to do:
    If I have both computers up and running on my work table, I'd love to be able to transition between them as seemlessly as if the Macbook was a secondary monitor. However, I want to access the Macbook Air's harddrive and contents while doing so. Example: I have Skype running on only the Macbook Air, a call comes in, I want to be able to mouse over from the iMac and take the call. I also want to be able to drag and drop content between the two computers (without using AirDrop).
    Ambitious, I know, but is this possible? My understanding is that Target Mode means that I'm only using the screen, not the actual computer, so I wouldn't be able to run seperate software on the 2 computers. And I'm not sure an ethernet connection is possible because the Macbook Air doesn't have one. Any WiFi software solutions?
    As always, thanks for any and all input!
    Best,
    Rob

    You can do this with the application Teleport

  • Does or will the Airport Extreme be able to share the Guest network to a Ethernet port?

    Did not know if there was or possibly will be the ability to seperate ethernet ports to make a hardwired guest network?

    Sorry, not possible to extend the Guest Network using either wireless or Ethernet.
    You might want to let Apple know on any new features that you want to see.

  • Ipad and Devolo on the same network

    Yes I found the solution.
    Using the devolo-dLAN Cockpit application (menu WLAN configuration, Acces points), you have to give the same SSID as the main network. The devolo-network is an extension of your firts network. So you only have one network name (two in fact but with the same name) and you only see one network on the iPad. The system chooses himself the best network signal (devolo or main) to connect with, depending on the place you are in your home.
    I also use the same main network password (not this one of devolo xxxx-....)
    Have fun.

    Hi kwhite10910,
    It could be that you connected via Adhoc.  You might try these steps: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02796271&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lang...

  • How can I setup my MacBook Pro, iMac and MacBook Air the same way without doing each separately? Same home page in Safari, same search preferences, etc

    Everytime I buy a new device or whipe out a hard drive and do a fresh install, I have to reset everything. All my preferances, Safari Homepage, passwords, etc.
    I know about time machine. The problem is that sometimes, I am trying to avoid a problem that is in the Time Machine's backup.
    I spend a lot of time setting my preferences for all the software I use. It is a real pain to modify every toolbar, etc

    One thing you can try next time is Setup Migration. So, after downloading and reinstalling OS X and after the restart into Setup use Setup Migration to migrate your user account(s), settings, apps and data from a Time Machine back up.
