Air Port Scanning Problem

I have a MacBook and wifi connection (netgear router is connected to DSL line) . Recently the internet has slowed to a screeching halt. When I look at the Air Port menu bar, Air Port shows that it's continually bouncing from AirPort:scanning to AirPort:on. It shows that I have 4 bars for the connection but yet it takes forever to load any webpage. Has anyone had this type of problem and does anyone know how to fix it?

Hi guys. Just wanna report in another case of the!!!
It really is a big problem. But it seems only to be on certain networks and then in the diagnostics it says that everything is ok. somebody help us

AIr Port Extreme Problem

I was told that the static IP adress on extrem could not be set through the normal airport assistant or amin utilities there are ways to do this through the terminal. a tech walked me through it and now it works fine but it was not easy.

what other electrical devices in the house are interfering with the signal. Try channel selection off automatic and are there any metallic objects blocking the signal area in close proximity.

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?

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.

Air Port Extreme connection problems

I have a Macbook Pro and a 1st gen. Ipod connected to the Internet using an Air Port Extreme. At this time I cannot use two devices at once to access the Internet, only one or the other. What should I do to adjust settings on my Airport?

The modem is a Motorola modem (silver) provided by AT&T and the model # is: 2210-02-1022 - I believe this is correct
style: MSTATEA
serial: 164303845632

mac book Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I see you're running 10.4.7 - would you consider running software update (select the blue apple in the top menubar, then select software update) and upgrading to 10.4.8, as well as applying any other updates for your MacBook?
It may resolve the issue. The other possible answer is that your wireless connection is experiencing interference.
If you have other 2.4GHz devices (portable house phones, microwave) within reasonable distance form your wireless router it may cause interference with your wireless connnectivity.

Air Port Express Audio drop Out Problem

Hi I have just brought an Air Port Express home and spent the evening setting it up which went relatively smoothly, but once tested using the Optical out into an Musical Fidelity V3 X Dac (Digital to Analog Converter) the sound persistently jitters making music unlistenable,using conventional 3.5mm stereo jack output works fine it only seems to be on the optical.
Have read as much as I can find of use on the net but it seems either the optical out is faulty or incompatible with this DAC or some people have mentioned it might be the latest version of I tunes all my soft-wear is up to date.
Does anyone have a solution or should I return it or will anyone at Apple no what I`m talking about in the shop I got the impression they didn`t know anything about the Optical out.
Any Help greatfully recieved.

You will need to try several different optical cables as they vary tremendously in their signal integrity. It is not unusual to see two identical cables from the same manufacturer perform very differently. Check out the store's return policy and try several different cables to see if you can find the right combination.

Problems with Air Port Express

I had an AE connected working fine. Now I have the amber light. Tried to reset while plugged in until amber light flashes. Support says the green light will flash 5 times but it never does. Air port Utility shows no AE. What do I do? All i get is this steady amber light. Do I connect it via my time cap? I do not get it.

HT4628 Air Port problems or Time Capsule?

My MacBook doesn't show the Time Capsule in the Air Port Utility but it does on my wires MacBook?

Your sentence doesn't make sense?
Do you mean it only shows up when connecting with an ethernet?

While using the computer the wi fi dropped out and it can longer find any networks. I have played around with the air port etc , still have no networks and can't connect to internet. Please help

Hi I am having Wi fi connectivity issues , while using my computer the wi fi dropped out , I can no longer connect and no networks come up. I have tried looking into the air port, trying manually to connect to the desired network with no success , it says the Wi fi is turned on. I am at a loss to why it will no longer connect, please if you have any suggestions,as I tried to ring apple support but my warranty has expired this is my first major issue since I purchased it in 2009.
Thanks

My 4s i-phone which is 2 years old cannot find any wi-fi networks not even my home network... I had the same problem two months ago but i turned off the i-phone for 8 hours and then it was okay... Now it happened again.... I tried to restart the modem but whilst my laptop is connected regularly, my phone still cannot find any wi-fi networks... I restart the i-phone, i reset it, i chose reset network settings, reset all settings, i turned it off for a whole day in case it was overloaded, i turned on the airplane mode and turned it off again, i put it into the freezer for 10 minutes within a zipped bag but 3 days now and i still cannot be connected to my home wifi... I went to the technician today and he told me that it means that wi-fi is broken and that i need to change it with a charge of 70 euro but i have to give my phone for 10 working days so as to be fixed... I am so frustrated and i don't know if i want to give 70 euro for wifi since i don't know if it would make the same problems again...

I bought a new router and now my mac can no longer find my air port express

I recently installed a new Netgear N600 router. The internet and wireless are working. I had previously purchased an Airport Express for use simply as Air Tunes and used it with our old router with no problems. However, since we installed the new router the Air Port utility cannot find the Airport Express. I have reset the settings on the Airport by pushing the little button.
I have tried connecting using an ethernet and Airport Utility still cannot find the express.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I would suggest that you start by performing a "factory default" reset on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX). Once completed, you should be able to access the AX via the AirPort Utility. Note: Be sure to first connect to the AX's wireless network BEFORE accessing it with the utility.

I have a time capsule and two air port expresses. The time capsule is in the middle of my house, the expresses equidistant in opposite directions. I would like the expresses to both connect directly to the capsule, but they are connected in serial. How?

I have a time capsule and two air port expresses. The time capsule is in the middle of my house, the expresses equidistant in opposite directions. I would like the expresses to both connect directly to the capsule, but they are connected in serial. How to reconfigure.
I ask because I have music running out of both expresses, and the one that is most distant from the time capsule (routed through the first express) regularly drops the music signal from itunes. And I am guessing the serial configuration of the routers has something to do with this, but my root problem is music dropout - any thoughts would be appreciated.

If you have the the most current model of the Express devices, the default setup is to "extend" the wireless signal. In this type of setup, each Express communicates directly to the Time Capsule.
How did you setup the AirPort Express devices?
What version of the Mac operating system are you using on your MacBook? Or, do you have AirPort Utility installed on your iPad?

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.

Port Scan is shooting blanks

I am finding it painful to set up VPN so any help anyone can give would be real generous.
I have been trying to connect to a VPN to tunnel L2TP via IPsec over port 1701 and PPTP over port 1723 but having no joy at all.
Macbook (10.5.6) uses mobile broadband USB modem (dynamic IP and telecom APN settings) to access internet. Internet works great, but have been unable to push thru VPN – getting the same error message "Connection terminated by communication device". I've checked firewall settings and it is set to allow all incoming requests. Therefore, there should be no ports blocked.
However, when I check open ports using Port Scan in Network Utilities using my session IP address the results are empty. All I get is the following:
Port Scan has started ...
Port Scanning host: 193.120.116.180
Port Scan has completed ...
Why is this not working? I'm confused
Am I able to check open ports on my Mac using dynamic IP address within active session on my Mac?

I am trying to set up connection to PureVPN for security purposes and have followed their config settings for my Macbook.
So how do I check the ports on my machine, as I'm sure it's not a problem at their end. I only have one machine so don't understand how it is possible to see if ports are being blocked at my end.
Do I run that /var/log/ppp.log in Terminal?

How do I get my iPad to recognize Air Port?

My computer and iPhone use the same air port but the iPad doesn't. What's the cause and how do I get to?

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
