Can't enable port mapping on my Airport (7.7.1 - newest version)

I'm having a tough go of enabling port mapping for my new Airport. It's the 7.7.1 version.
Is there a manual available?
Thanks!

Where is my 'Port Mapping' tab

I'm trying to open a port on my computer and have followed the instructions I have found here and on the net. 'Go to airport utility/click manual setup/click Advanced/ choose 'Port Mapping'.
I have no 'Port Mapping' option under Advanced.. I have only 'Statistics', 'MobileMe' and 'IPv6'.
Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

I am not 100% what isn't allowed.. but I am assuming you want to spread the backup across the two disks.. internal TC and 6TB external.. this is not possible.. It has to be one or the other. TC has no way to build a raid JBOD or anything else. Nor would you want to as that is the most likely to fail and kill your data.
Let me add, backing up 6TB over USB on TC.. will be the most excruciating experience of your life.. cf child birth or passing kidney stones.. large ones.. being the male equivalent.

How to Enable Port Mapping on my AirPort Express? - Screens Connect

Hi, everyone. I recently purchased a VNC app called Screens 3 and downloaded its desktop assistant, Screens Connect. The process was pretty straightforward and I was easily able to connect my iPhone and iPad to my MacBook Air over my local Wi-Fi. However, I am still unable to connect to my MacBook over LTE or any other Wi-Fi. Here's a look at what the Screens Connect preference panel looks like:
As you can see there aren't a whole lot of options, but Port Mapping is apparently a no-go. I'm guessing this is the resaon I can't connect over anything other than my local Wi-Fi. If anyone here could help me turn that red into a green, I'd be forever grateful. Thanks!

The instructions for enabling port mapping are pretty straightforward, but it never seems to make any difference. If it helps, I am technically living in a college dorm, and have my AirPort Express plugged directy into the wall's ethernet port. I'm assuming, using bridge-mode and all, that I actually have two routers, and the university's router is the one that I need to enable port mapping on. If I'm correct, is there a way to enable port mapping on my side without having to go through my university? Again, this is just conjecture. But the steps are fairly simple, so I'm not sure what else it could be.

HT4587 Where is the Music Tab in AirPort Utility? I am using 2TB Time Capsule

I can't fond the Music Tab as specified in this article - "Ensure that "Enable AirPlay/AirTunes" is checked in the AirPort Utility Music tab."

Neither the Time Capsule or AirPort Extreme Base Station support music streaming. As such, if you access either with the AirPort Utility, the Music tab would be missing by design.

Port fowarding on windows airport utility?

When I'm at school, and have connected the router, whenever someone is connected to the internet cable (we have 2 slots), they can download torrents fine. Whenever someone tries to download them through the wifi from AirPort Express, they cant, and the ports are blocked, how can I open them? There doesnt seem to be an option for that the utility

Welcome to the discussions!
To function correctly in your application, the AirPort Express is probably configured to act as a "bridge"...Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
You can confirm this by opening AirPort Utility and clicking Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon in the row of icons
Check the Connection Sharing setting at the bottom of the page
When the AirPort Express is in "bridge mode" it is not blocking any ports. They are already open. The Express receives its information from the router ahead of it. You will need to setup port forwarding, etc on that router.

Help! Cannot see ABS in Airport Utility

This has gone on a while. I now want to add a Airport Express however neither of these show up in the Airport Admin Utility. I have restarted and reset the ABS with no luck. Am I missing something. It should just show up. My signal is strong and the connection to the internet is fine. What's up? Here is what I have:
PB 1ghz
Airport Extreme
Airport Express
Speed Stream 5360 dsl modem
OSX 10.4.3 was happening with earlier versions
Airport Software 4.2
Thanks in Advance Norm

Make sure on your Mac that in System Preferences->Network->Show ethernet built in->TCP/IP tab that the only selection is to "configure using DHCP". Then turn off the Mac's Airport card (Airport menu), plug the ethernet cable from the Mac into the AEBS ethernet LAN port, and see whether that works any better.
Sometimes it helps to just try using another Mac or a PC - and see whether it has any better luck. That would rule out the possibility that you just have (for lack of better words) a "messed up Mac".
If that fails, I suggest you try a hard reset and reconfiguration per the article Starting from scratch

Airport Extreme v7.3.3 Port Mapping Port 80

I have a DVR in my home which is connected to my home network. It has a static IP address. I would like to be able to utilize its mobile app from any mobile/cellular network. The manufacturer of my DVR tells me that I need to open up Port 80 on my router, which is an Airport Extreme running v7.3.3.
I have tried looking up solutions and have found similar results but nothing for the AirPort running v7.x.x. Everything I have found is for version v6.x.x or v5.x.x.
I have tried using the following examples with no success, which may be fault on my part, as well as the document:
AirPort - Port Mapping Basics using AirPort Utility v6.x
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Apple/AirPortExtreme/defa ultguide.htm
Re: How do I open ports on my airport extreme and assign a fixed IP Address for a device connected to my network?
Any further advice would be welcome. Thank you. I will gladly provide further details upon request/as needed.

I have tried looking up solutions and have found similar results but nothing for the AirPort running v7.x.x. Everything I have found is for version v6.x.x or v5.x.x.
Unfortunately, you have the firmware version of the AirPort mixed up with the software version of AirPort Utility, the application used to setup and administer the AirPort router.
Your AirPort was setup using software either by AirPort Utility 6.x...or....an iPad or iPhone running the iOS version of AirPort Utility. Either of those applications will allow you to set up port mapping......IF.....the AirPort is setup as the main router on your network.
Or, in other words....you do not have the AirPort connected to another modem/router on the network.
Now might be a very good time to confirm on the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem", since that will dictate the next move as far as setting up ports.

Port mapping in Time Machine

I cannot see where in Time Machine I can set port mapping. There should be a drop down box for set up service. I'm trying to access Echolink.

I cannot see where in Time Machine I can set port mapping.
Time Machine is software to back up your Mac to a hard drive. Won't be anything about port mapping there.
Maybe you meant to ask about a Time Capsule? If yes, Port Mapping is set up using AirPort Utility on your Mac. It is located as follows: Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility.
Hold down the option key on your Mac while you double click on the picture of the Time Capsule
Click the Network tab
IF.....the Time Capsule has been configured to provide DHCP and NAT service for the network, you will see the Port Mapping Setup there.
IF....the Time Capsule has been setup to work with your modem/router in Bridge Mode, the Port Mapping settings are greyed out and cannot be accessed. Port Mapping service must be set up on your modem/router.....not on the Time Capsule.

How do I configure my airport utility for port mapping?

I am trying to view my FOSCAM cameras over the internet while away from home. They work fine in my house using Wi-Fi. Instructions say to do port forwarding. I have cameras set up, but can't get my router to port forward. I found "Port Forwarding" in Airport Utlility then NETWORK. 'Router mode: DHCP and NAT';on 'Port Settings I click on the "+" at the bottom. 'Private IP Address: populates to 10.0.1.201'. What goes in the other blocks?

Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details on how to configure Port Mapping on the AirPort routers. I would suggest that you check your FOSCAM documentation as to what TCP and/or UDP ports are required to access their IP cameras from a remote location.

AEBS Gigabit 802.11n FW 7.2.1 - OS X 10.5.1 Port Mapping HELP!!!!

Hi
I have a AEBS with Gigabit Ethernet upgraded to Firmware 7.2.1. I am running OS X Leopard 10.5.1 and I am unable to successfully forward ports. Every time I query a port that I believe to have mapped successfully it appears closed using canyouseeme.org.
I have followed numerous instructions, but they all seem to be instructions for Tiger, I'm wondering if a setting has been missed. I have successfully assigned a static IP address to my machine but still the port appears to be closed. I do run the Leopard firewall using specific applications option (the third one), but I have also tried it with the firewall off and it still hasn't changed anything, the ports are always closed.
So now I'm pretty much stumped. Has any one actually managed to get a setup similar to mine working, with the ports being open? All advice appreciated.
Thanks

Hello dalyboy. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Try the following to see if it will help ...
To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the host device.
Internet > DHCP tab
o On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
o Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
o Reserve address by: MAC Address
o Click Continue.
o MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
o IPv4 Address: <enter the desired IP address>
o Click Done.
2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.

New Airport Extreme (802.11n): : Port Mapping... ***???

There are two different programs I was formerly using, whereby (after following instructions) I was able to create a static IP address for every machine on my network, plus open ports 8000 and 9990-9998 respectively. But ever since upgrading to the new Airport Extreme (802.11n), it completely stopped working. To boot, I've upgraded to Leopard on one of two of the machines (the other is still using 10.3.9).
I haven't been able to figure out for the life of me, how to configure it. It's no longer as obvious where and what information to put in. All guides that would remotely help are designed for the older Airport unit, which has completely different menus in the Airport Utility.
Is there anyone out there who has experience with Dot-Tunes and/or Nicecast or similar port mapping, who has the patience to describe, in layman's terms, what steps to take to get this set up correctly again, starting with how to reassign static IPs for my machines. I will not ask a lot of questions and take up too much more of your time. I'm just frustrated after a whole day of trying to figure this out and fruitless Google and forum searches.
Thank you so much.

I'm not familiar with either Dot-Tunes or Nicecast, but the following would be the general port mapping procedure with the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) using the AirPort Utility. Note in this procedure you will not need to assign a static IP address for each of your host devices. Instead you will be taking advantage of the AEBSn's DHCP reservations feature.
To setup port mapping on an AEBSn, either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the host device.
Internet > DHCP tab
o On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
o Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
o Reserve address by: MAC Address
o Click Continue.
o MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
o IPv4 Address: <enter the desired IP address>
o Click Done.
2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
Advanced > Port Mapping tab
o Click the "+" (Add) button
o Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
o Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port values>
o Public TCP Port(s): <enter the appropriate TCP port values>
o Private IP Address: <enter the IP address of the host server>
o Private UDP Port(s): <enter the same as Public UDP Ports or your choice>
o Private TCP Port(s): <enter the same as Public TCP Ports or your choice>
o Click "Continue"

Port Mapping / port forwarding - help please...again...

Hi,
I am trying to use port forwarding/port mapping but after numerous failures to access my computer from an Internat connection, I am seeking advice or guidance.
I have a 2011 Apple Time Capsule, and under the Advanced tab on Airport utilities, Port mapping I have chosen +
it then comes up with a box in which I have entered the following:
Service - drop down menu (number of options...but have been advised on other threads to leave as is)
It then has 5 boxes:
Public UDP port(s) - 9080
Public TCP ports(s) - 9080
Private IP adress    - 10.0.1.x
Private UDP Port(s) - 9080
Private TCP Port(s)   -9080
note I have enabled NAT port mapping protocall. My ISP has advised that I cant use port 80 for some reason...but all others should be ok
note also the 10.0.1.x is a static address i have assigned to teh camera.
I have a dns provider, and when I use the URL on my LAN - I can access the camera....but as soon as I tryu to access via the WAN - it is unable to reach the server.
Other points - the TC is in normal mode (i.e. not Bridge)
Does anyone have any idea if I have set port mapping up correctly; any way i can test, any ideas how i can fix this??
I have tried this on a number of forums thus far - but no success to date.
Welcome all and any help!!!

Have you reset the camera web page to use 9080?
i have checked again and in teh advances settings of my camera - it asks for HTTP port, HTTPS port, and for Nata Traversal it asks for an alternative HTTP port.   I have entered 9080 against all of these.
The TC is in normal mode ie as a router.. what modem do you have in front of it? Is it in bridge? Does the TC get the public IP or does the modem route the address as well? You will have no success via double NAT.
not sure what brand the modem is - but i can confirm it is set up as a modem only with both the router and wireless functions turned off.
The Modem is not in Bridge mode - neither is my ATC. The ATC gets the public IP address via the adsl modem. so double NAT should not be an issue
When you say you can access the camera using URL on lan, is that using the new port 9080? Please give explicitly what address you use.. (you can hide the full public address) and port.. and AFAIK this should NOT work as the TC would have to handle NAT Loopback which would amaze me if it does. According to all the info around the web the TC has no NAT Loopback and therefore should not be able to handle the address. I need to know therefore the exact address you use
this is actually using the url that my dns provider provides to me as i do not have a static ip address.   albeit this appears temperamental as to when it works sometimes from my LAN. after which it requests user name and password and I can then see the live stream.
one problem I have just noted is that when checking teh DNS setup - it still appears to default to port 80 which my isp has advised i can not use) so i am checking with teh dns provider how i change this.
The good news is port mapping must work on my ATC, as I have just set up my slingbox using their automatic port mapping assistant and it seemed to set up with no issues...i have also just confirmed that the stream can be viewed on the internet.
