Air port extreme lost al the lights and restarting doenst wark. Cables are OK. What to do?

My air port extreme stoped working, no any light. I tried to restart, unplug and plug it again, nothing happen. Any idea?

Unfortunately, if the light is out, the outboard power supply has failed, or the internal power supply has failed.
If you have a voltage tester, check the outboard power supply for 12 volts. If it delivers 12 volts, then the internal power supply on the AirPort Extreme has failed, and you will need to replace the AirPort Extreme.
If the outboard power supply does not work, you might be able to replace that outboard power supply to get things working again.
Take the AirPort Extreme to an Apple Store....if you have one near you.....to let them take a look.

  • Do the old air port extremes work with the software update downloaded today

    I have the new airport express. I have a two year old airport extreme.  I downloaded the airport software update today and the internet access is not connecting.  I can access the internet on other networks, but not my own.  In the airport utilities my airport express lists ,connection good'.  The airport extreme, even though it has the green connection dot lit, does not have any verbage giving connection status.

  • MacBook not showing external hard drive connected to Air Port Extreme

    I have a MacBook 5.2 running Mac OS X Version 10.5.7. I am running a wireless network Air Port Extreme router Version 7.4.2. I have connected a 1 TB Western Digital 10EAVS External hard drive and a printer to the Air Port Extreme router via a USB 2 hub. My MacBook sees and I am able to utilize the printer, but the Western Digital 1 TB External drive does not show up. I can see the 1 TB External drive via the Air Port Application setup, but it is not showing up on my desktop or in Utilities/Disk Utilities. I have connected the External drive directly to the USB port on my MacBook, and the drive showed up on my desktop instantly. I partitioned the External drive into two partitions and ran Time Machine which successfully backed up my MacBook. I then disconnected the External hard drive from my MacBook and reconnected it to another USB port in the hub connected to the Air Port Extreme. Once again, my MacBook does not see the External hard drive. I can see the External hard drive via the Air Port Extreme application right down to the two individual partitions. I even removed the USB hub and plugged the External hard drive directly into the Air Port Extreme router, but my MacBook still did not see the hard drive. I've restored version 7.4 and 7.4.1 on the Air Port Extreme, but it did not help. Does anyone have any insight what settings might need to be changed on my MacBook to allow it to connect to the External hard drive while it is plugged into the Air Port Extreme wireless router?

    Do you have an older "dome" style AEBS or the rectangular model? The former will not work with TM. Early versions of the former may not work until you enable them to see a TM drive by doing the following:
    Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command and press RETURN:
    defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1
    The drive should now be accessible via TM.

    If you recently installed new ram, make sure it is seated properly.
    If that doesn't work try removing one stick at a time to see if one is dead or put original ram back in.

  • Can I use the new Air port extreme to scan, print, and share a hard drive?

    I currently have a canon 3and1 pixma MP750 printer, and a lacie brick 250gb usb external drive. I'm looking into buying a airport extreme "n" base station and a apple tv to share all my music on my home theater. I'm also planning on updating my current system to an Imac 17" intel duo 2.18g. My question is will I be able to use the scan function on my printer with the air port extreme, or is there away to connect multiple computers to 1 printer? (ie emac directly to printer and airport extreme directly to printer via some product I may not know of) And do you for see any problems sharing the HD drive between the emac, a new imac and a windows based pc with xp operating system if connected throught the airport via usb hub to acomidate the printer as well as the HD?
    Emac G4 1gig   Mac OS X (10.4.1)   Shopping for new mac

    My question is will I be able to use the scan function on my printer with the air port extreme
    Unfortunately, no. The new AirPort Extreme Base Station, like all other AirPort Base Stations, do not support the scan or copy features of "all-in-one" printers attached to their USB ports. This is primarily due to the fact that these features require two-way communications which the USB port does not support.
    is there away to connect multiple computers to 1 printer?
    Yes, if the printer is Ethernet-enabled, you can connect it to one of the AEBS's LAN ports...or use a Wireless Ethernet Bridge, like the Linksys WET54G to connect the printer wirelessly to the AEBS.
    And do you for see any problems sharing the HD drive between the emac, a new imac and a windows based pc with xp operating system if connected throught the airport via usb hub to acomidate the printer as well as the HD?
    No, the new AEBS should support this.

  • I have an Imac running snow leopard and have recently installed a cannon i-sensys lbp7750Cdn printer since then I can't get the printer working and the air port has lost the DNS servers; if it ever had them!!! but it dose not look happy. Can any one help

    I have an Imac running snow leopard and have recently installed a cannon i-sensys lbp7750Cdn printer since then I can't get the printer working and the air port has lost the DNS servers; if it ever had them!!! but it dose not look happy and it is telling me so. Can any one help please?

    Snow Leopard breaks quite a few drivers - my Canon exhibited the same problem.
    I eventually found updated drivers on the Canon website. You can try that with the HP, but if the all-in-one is more than a year or so old, don't hold your breath.
    You can also try Software Update to see if it will offer new drivers, or failing that go to the Support Downloads site and search for HP updates.
    In fact there's a new one for HP at the top of the list just now.
    You may not necessarily want the latest one, though - check the specs to see if your model is covered; if not, search for the previous update etc.

  • Share snapshots here, Air Port Extreme and 2 Air Port Express are working

    is there a way to attach snapshots here
    after 1 week I fig out how to get it to work in windows XP using my FIOS router and my Air Port Extreme, but before anything make sure you have the MAC address of all the Apple devices
    As I config my devices(Air Port Extreme and 2 Air Port Express) I took snapshots since I did not want to go through this again

  • New Air Port Extreme and old Air Port Express?

    Just got my Air Port Extreme up an running. Is there any reason why my 4 year old Air Port Express would not work with the new Extreme?
    The extreme saw briefly yesterday but today the computer doesn't see the express and the extreme only flashes with the orange light showing it has no signal.
    Only thing that did change was I did the firmware update on the extreme.
    Message was edited by: jcox

    Welcome to the discussions!
    Connect an ethernet cable from your computer directly to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Extreme. Open AirPort Utility - Manual Setup so the summary page is displayed.
    Click on the amber dot and a message will appear with the reason for the flashing amber light on the Extreme. What is the message?
    Regarding the Express, how do you plan to use it in your network?

  • HT3546 How do I set up my air port extreme to do port forwarding? Running 10.7.4 I have a IP camera on my local wireless net work that I want to use from my iPhone 4s and other computers.

    How do I set up my air port extreme to do port forwarding? Running 10.7.4 I have a IP camera on my local wireless net work that I want to use from my iPhone 4s and other computers.

    In most cable systems, the router you have will plug into your modem and just work automatically. A NAT (Network Address Translation) router takes your external IP and hands out LAN (Local Area Network) based IPs. All of the devices you are working with right now should handle the change automatically unless you've changed from the default automatic configuration.
    The problem with your wireless end of this is that the iPhone is not yet 802.11n, only 802.11g. Because that router is not dual band, all of your wifi devices will be forced to slow down to 802.11g speeds. This won't matter much for each device that's connecting to the internet, as your bottleneck is still going to be there. Where you will see slowdowns is device to device connections, like transferring data between the devices.

  • My Air port is not working the wifi - just an amber light blinking. What's going on ?

    My air port is not working the wifi - just an amber light blinking. What's going on ?

    Sorry it is just not enough info to be able to figure it out.
    Do a full factory reset and start over.. that is the best way out of the hole.
    Using ethernet is far far superior to using wireless at least for setup.
    Using iOS device with airport utility is better than using wireless via a Mac with airport utility if you have MBA or MBPr.. but it is still better to buy a usb or thunderbolt to ethernet dongle so you have actual real connection and not a vapourous one.

  • Can my play station access the hooked up hard drive through the air port extreme?

    I have an iPad, iPhone, and Apple TV. I know that the air port extreme will allow me access to my hard drive but will it allow my PS3 to access the hard drive to play videos?

    Basically, no.  That is because your PS3 is a DLNA-compliant media player. In order to steam videos from the AirPort Disk you would need a DLNA media server. Unfortunately the Extreme is not one of these.

  • Wps HP printer to air port extreme for imac and mac air

    Just purchased a HP C310c p/c/s/p/web . it has wps protection. air port extreme has wpa. how do i proceed?

    The AirPorts do not directly support WPS. Instead, you would need to configure your HP printer for either a WPA or WPA2 protected network depending on how you have already setup wireless security on your AirPort Extreme. You should be able to find a setting via the printer's control panel to allow you do so.

  • Air Port Extreme Remote Administration?

    Is it possible to administer the Air Port Extreme remotely?
    My Linksys router has been doing OK lately, but have been noticing issues like speed latency.  I think this is true not only since another B or G Wifi device connected to the router causing the rest of the speeds to decrease, but also since I moved into a location that has many WiFi hotspots - specifically my condo complex.  My conclusion is buying a dual band wireless router which probablt has a larger WiFi range too.  I am debating on whether or not to buy the Apple Air Port Extreme Base Station or one of the top 3 Linksys E Seriers routers (E2500, E3200, E4200), since I have 2 iPads, an iMac, 2 iPhones, 2 Apple TVs, 2 Windows 7 laptops, 1 Windows XP desktop, XBox 360, Nintendo Wii, and 2 WiFi enablesd Blue Ray Players.  I saw that I was able to access all of the devices with the Air Port Extreme Base Station - great!    Air Port Extreme Base Station works great with all of the Apple devices, stops latency slow WiFi speeds and can have a USB hub attached to allow for a printer, multiple HDs [Time Machine Backups, YAY], etc.  I am leaning towards the Air Port Extreme Base Station, but have two reservations:
    (1) WEB BROWSER: I cannot administer the Air Port Extreme Base Station via a web browser and am forced to install the software and
    (2) REMOTE ADMINISTRATION: I cannot make any changes to the Air Port Extreme Base Station remotely, say if I'm at work, forgot to open a few ports and NAT/PAT, to access my computer.
    I would buy the Air Port Extreme Base Station if I can at least get through one of these two reservations.
    Please help.

    <Yes, the newer AirPort Extremes running 7.4.1+ firmware, can be administered from a remote location ... of course, you would still require the AirPort Utility to do so.>
    I am looking to set up remote access to my Airport Extreme that is running the latest firmware. Can you describe what I need to do to do so?  I do not have a static IP so will have to use something like DynDNS I assume. My needs are pretty simple. From time to time my Airport drops out (I'm guessing after a power outage) and while the Cablevision modem restarts, my Airlort is often left flashing orange. This would be fine except that this is all at a weekend house that is 90 miles away and I need the wifi to be working so that I can access my Nest thermostat as well as my Insteon system for remote light management.

  • Time capsule 1st generation - extension with air port extreme

    My parents use a time capsule (1st generation) as wireless lan device. As they run a boarding house they wish to provide free internet access to all of their guests (in all rooms). Therefore I bought an air port extreme station to extend the network as this product now (finally) includes the option »guest network«.
    The question is the following: *Should I keep the time capsule as basic device connected to the modem and use the air port extreme as extension or do you recommend to set it up vice versa?*
    I checked the range of the time capsule: It can be used in already in the first floor but not in the second anymore.
    I am really unsure how I should approach this topic and I hope more expirienced users can provide some help to this issue. Maybe you can also give me some security advice. In order to protect kids from misusing this new possiblity I was thinking of using opendns to block certain websites. Maybe there are also betters ways of doing this?

    Need a bit more info.
    Now this is what happens when I plug it in:
    Plug it into power?? The main router?? Sorry I am unclear what you are plugging it into.
    It sounds like you have not done the setup.
    The TC should be in bridge and plugged into the current modem router you have.. and powered on full time.
    If you cannot access it via the utility, I strongly suggest you buy the apple usb to ethernet dongle.. which helps air people no end.. or use any other computer that has a real ethernet port.
    Otherwise set to factory and start over. (this will not do anything to what you already have on the disk).
    Hold in reset and power on the TC.. wait about 10sec until the front led rapidly flashes. .then you can connect the computer.. and do the setup.. choose bridge in the Network section of the utility and update the TC.
    Then you can plug it into the main router and access it and internet at the same time.. either by TC wireless or the main modem wireless.
    Please note. .Gen1 TC is only going to last very little time.. it is already well past the average lifespan.. many died at 2years.. most gone by 4years.. plan on storing nothing important on it.

  • Help needed setting up IP Cameras for remote access using Air Port Extreme

    Does anyone know how to access IP Cams remotely and open the ports on the Air Port Extreme using a PC? I have several iPhone Apps I can use but I cannot get the ports opened and on a PC it seems less intuitive than the MAC directions.

    That manual page is not fully correct. There is written:
    Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port value(s)>
    Public TCP Port(s): <enter the appropriate TCP port value(s)>
    Private IP Address: <enter the reserved IP address of the host device (from step 1)>
    Private UDP Port(s): <enter the same Public UDP Ports or your choice>
    Private TCP Port(s): <enter the same Public TCP Ports or your choice>
    But it should be:
    Public UDP Port(s): <enter unique UDP Ports of your choice>
    Public TCP Port(s): <enter unique TCP Ports of your choice>
    Private IP Address: <enter the reserved IP address of the host device (from step 1)>
    Private UDP Port(s): <enter the UDP Ports used by your device>
    Private TCP Port(s): <enter the TCP Ports used by your device>
    Make sure you use the same ports in the private settings as you have defined in your IP camera. Normally a camera will use port 80 by default, so use 80 here.
    The Public ports must all be unique. If you have not defined a port 80 here, you can also use 80. This will fail however when using multiple cameras. I for instance have 5 IP cameras and use the public ports 8451, 8452, 8453 etc.
