Airport Extreme and UPnP enabling

I am trying to connect my Panasonic IP Camera to the Apple Extreme (using a PC with Window XP Prof installed) but received the following error message regarding UPnP:
"Failed to configure the router's Port Forwarding by UPnP.
The router may not support UPnP function or UPnP function is disabled.Please enable your router's UPnP or configure Port Forwarding manually".
Can someone please tell me how I can enable the UPnP or configure the Port Forwarding using the "Airport Extreme Utility Program"?
For your info, my Airport Extreme firmware has already been upgraded to Version 5.7.
Appreciate if someone can assist please. Thank you.

fpv, Welcome to the discussion area!
Port forwarding/mapping is explained in Steve Newstrum's user tip "How do I use
Port Mapping (Part I)".
Duane,
My apolgy for late response as I was away without internet for quite a while.
Not sure if you or anyone knows: is there a way to enable the Apple Extreme wirless router to update the Dyndns.com database automatically with my dynamic IP address as what the Linksys and Buffalo routers can do? I do not want to leave my PC on or else I would have used the "DDNS Updater" programme instead.
Appreciate if I can get some advice from you or other experts out there on this matter. Thank you.

  • AirPort Extreme and Time Warner RoadRunner Service Issue

    I have Time Warner's RoadRunner Turbo Internet service, which promises a minimum bitrate of 15 Mbps for downloads and 1 Mbps for uploads. Recently, my measured throughput has crashed on uploads, to well below 100 Kbps (0.01 Mbps) while going through my AirPort Extreme over 100/1000Base-T cable (system 7.4.2). When I directly connect my Mac to the cable modem, I get a consistent 28 Mbps down and 1.7 Mbps up and a ping time of 20 ms. I've tried cycling power, soft resetting, and even hard resetting to factory settings, but nothing seems to fix this throughput issue. I'm going to try a cheap 3rd party router (D-Link or Linksys) to see if I can get my throughput back up, but is there something I'm missing on my setup? I have opened SSH, IMAP and Apple Remote Desktop through the AirPort Extreme, and have enabled Bonjour on it. I can't figure out why this change has happened so suddenly.

    power down the network and the modem. connect modem to the extreme wan port. connect pc to ethernet lan port. power modem up first then the router. use Airport Utility to configure your network.

  • I have airport extreme and just purchased a D-Link DCS-932L home network camera.  D-Link says I need UpNp but the extreme doesn't support this.  Can I use port mapping?  if so anyone know how to set that up?  thanks

    I have airport extreme and just purchased a D-Link DCS-932L home network camera.  D-Link says I need UpNp but the extreme doesn't support this.  Can I use port mapping?  if so anyone know how to set that up?  thanks

    Since the D-Link DCS-932L is accessible on the local network via a web browser, you should be able to access this camera from the Internet if your router has a publically accessible Public IP address. If your ISP provides you with a dynamic Public IP address, you may want to use a DDNS service to make it easier for you to locate your camera whenever your ISP changes your IP address.
    Start the AirPort Utility > Select the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn).
    Select Manual Setup.
    Verify that Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address is selected on the Internet > Internet Connection tab.
    Select Advanced, and then, select the Port Mapping tab.
    Click the plus sign to add a new port mapping.
    For Service, leave the default; this will change to "Custom" once you start entering port values.
    In the Public UDP Port(s) and Public TCP Port(s) boxes, type in a 4-digit port number (e.g., 8888) that you choose. In the Private IP Address box, type the internal IP address of your camera. In the Private UDP Port(s) and Private TCP Port(s) boxes, enter the appropriate port values that should have been provided to you by the camera manufacturer. Click Continue.
    In the Description box, type a descriptive name like "Internet Camera Access," and then, click Done.
    Click on Update.
    To connect to the shared Camera from a remote location using a Mac or PC:
    Start your favorite web browser.
    Enter either your Public IP address or DDNS-provided Domain Name, followed by a colon and the Public port number that you choose in step 7 of the previous procedure. For example: http://123.123.123.123:8888 or http://www.mydtdnsdomainname.com:8888

  • Can I use Airport Express to extend signal from my Airport Extreme and then run Ethernet from Express to my TV which requires ethernet to access internet?

    As stated in title. I want to access Netflix but my TV requires ethernet connection. I would like to use Express to repeat Exreme sigal and then to TV via Ethernet. I only have one access point in house for cable modem so I'm using Extreme to broadcast though house. Will need to be able to input network key for Extreme secure network. Thank you.
    Mike

    Are both your AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express 802.11"n" devices?
    If yes, you can configure the Express to "extend a wireless network" and it will  provide more wireless coverage and the Etherent port will be enabled so that you can connect an Ethernet device.
    This assumes that the Express is located where it can receive a strong signal from the AirPort Extreme.

  • Printing with a USB printer using Airport Extreme and Vista

    I have a airport extreme and it prints fine with all of my Macs.
    I bought a VAIO installed with Vista and the lastest service pack. Here is what I have done
    * Installed Bonjour Printing software on the Windows Machine
    * Installed the print drivers on the Windows Machine
    * Bonjour finds the printer and driver without any problem
    * When I test the printer will print either one page or half of one page and then I get an error message.
    * I enabled the UDP 5353 port in the Firewall
    The printer is a Epson Photo R220
    I have no problems with the Macintosh works great and I have no problems with the Windows machine connecting to the Airport for internet usage.
    If anyone out there has a solution I would very appreciative.
    Thanks

    No help from the forum. I used Bonjour for Windows.

  • IPads, Airport Extreme and Printing

    Hi all,
    I bought an Airport Extreme and have plugged a printer into the USB. The instructions imply anything on the Airport network should be able to use the printer.
    Both my desktop and laptop Macs can, but I was really surprised to find that our iPads can't see it. It is enabled in Airport, but I haven't done anything with Bonjour.
    I've looked through posts on here and it seems that for some reason iPads can't connect to a printer on Airport Extreme... this seems really, really odd!
    I have no intention of buying an HP printer, which seems to be the only straightforward option. I tried searching for an oft-mentioned App called "Printopia" but it's no longer on the (Canada) app store.
    This really does beggar belief.... it's only printing, for goodness sake! Surely it's just a matter of streaming data to a printer... which the iPad should surely be able to do over the air to the Airport Extreme??
    Does anyone have any ideas how I can print from an iPad, without buying another printer?
    All advice appreciated!

    Thanks both.
    I didn't think about drivers as I haven't had to install one for Mac for (probably) years! Things all just work when plugged in!
    I tried Canon but their software only works with their wireless printers, which doesn't help me.
    I didn't realise Printopia works just from a Mac.... in which case I might as well carry on doing what I'm doing now... emailing or synching docs through iTunes and print from the Mac.
    Lets hope other printer manufacturer's make AirPrint capable machines soon...

  • AirPort Extreme 802.11n* Enabler for Mac 4 use with Touch?

    Hello,
    I have a 2nd Gen Touch with the latest updated software. I use Airport to connect to the internet on my new iMac 24". Will the AirPort Extreme 802.11n* Enabler software now offered in the Apple store($1.99) for Mac improve communications between the Touch and my iMac?
    Thanks

    Nope. Your touch is still limited to b/g mode wireless. In fact, if you have an all n network, your touch won't even know that it exists.
    Most of your Mac to iPod communication is via the USB cable unless you are using Remote or other applications that can move files on and off.
    BTW, that software is to enable early intel Macs to use N wireless. If your Mac is relatively new, you won't need it.

  • Airport extreme and express & apple TV

    I have an airport extreme and express & apple TV. I'd like to do the following:
    1) Extend the network via the express
    2) Enable the express to stream music to the stereo from the apple TV
    I am sure someone has figured this out but I can't find the answer...
    Thank you

    Firstly, the easiest bit (although I don't believe you need to do this):
    I would try "downgrading" the Extreme station's network type to only b/g (excluding n entirely), but I don't see that option in the radio settings anymore
    You will get additional settings if you hold down the option key while browsing the radio settings drop down menu.
    Moving on: Unfortunately a dropped connections seems to be a problem with umpteen causes and not only is it difficult to troubleshoot with someone in a forum it can also be made even more difficult because many problems are associated with network settings on a router that the person who is trying to help is unfamiliar with.
    However you seem to be convinced your problems arise when your express is running which may narrow things down a little if correct, if not it may actually lead us away from the answer to your issue.
    Is it the kind of security I'm running? Should I try WEP or... none at all?
    I use WPA and have no problems (password = 8 Characters)
    Should I attach it a different way? Perhaps manually set it to "participate in a WDS network" or "extend a wireless network?
    I have my expresses set to participate in a WDS network, but that's because I use them for other things other than itunes, I would have thought 'join a network' would be fine.
    You could check that all your devices are using independent IP addresses and all are using the same subnet. You could also check that no two devices have the same mac address, I've been told a million times this can't happen, but I've seen it. You may be wise to check these things before and after your devices have been 'kicked off the network", you may even want to write them down to see if any are changing.

  • Setting up airport extreme and express

    i purchased both the airport extreme and the express. i have cable modem and use a router (to it i have connected vonage phone and an external drive). from the router, i have successfully hooked up my airport extreme.
    i now want to hook up my airport express in another room, so i can use it to connect to speakers and listen to music.
    when i plug in the airport express, i dont get a connextion (amber light blinking). i have not bought the speakers/system yet, so i dont have any cables hooked to it. could this be the reason as to why i am not getting a connetction?
    i also thought that i did not need to hook up anything to it, since this would just extend my wireless connection (i use a macbook and ibook)
    any thoughts?

    AirPort tab
    - Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    - Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
    - Wireless Network: <select the existing wireless network>
    Music tab
    - Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
    - Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
    - iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
    - iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
    In iTunes:
    iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
    - Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

  • AirPort Extreme 802.11n* Enabler

    The Apple Store page for this 'Enabler' says it comes included with the latest AEBS. If this is so, how do you access the update to install it on your machines? There seems to be a complete lack of information on this.
    Any help greatly appreciated...

    I've purchased the update and i am not able to install it. I get as far as to the point where you have to choose the HD where you want to install it in. I get a red exclamation mark saying "You cannot install Airport Extreme 802.11n Enabler on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
    I have installed all the software updates and still getting this message....Can anybody help me/tell me what i'm doing wrong?
    Thanks for any help!!

  • Airport Extreme 802.11n Enabler software

    Today I purchased an Airport Extreme and was able to set it up quickly
    on my iMac (2.15 GHz Intel Core Duo). I was also able to connect to it
    on my MacBook (2.0 GHz Core Duo). In looking at the connection information
    from the Airport the MacBook is connected using 802.11a.
    The Apple Store says that the Airport Extreme includes the 802.11n enabler software, but
    I was only able to find the software package for controlling the router.
    I must be missing something. Any help would be appreciated.

    Sorry but Core Duo Macs do not have 802.11n hardware.
    Only Core 2 Duo Macs have the 802.11n hardware.
    The enabler is on the disc but isn't compatible with your Macs.

  • AirPort Extreme 802.11n* Enabler not working

    Hello, I just installed the Time Capsule software onto my 1st gen MacBook. I saw that it installed the AirPort Extreme 802.11n Enabler, but after looking at the network utility. All that show up is: Wireless Network Adapter (802.11 a/b/g), it does not give the little 'n.' I ran the installer twice, but no joy. Any help would be great!
    Thanks!

    ursina, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Go to the Apple menu and select about this Mac. Does it say "Intel Core Duo" or "Intel Core 2 Duo"?
    Only the Macs with "Intel Core 2 Duo" processors have the 802.11n hardware. If you Mac book has the "Intel Core Duo" processor the enabler is useless.

  • AirPort Extreme 802.11n* Enabler Problems

    I just bought the AirPort Extreme 802.11n* Enabler for my 2 GHz MacBook with and Intel Core 2 Duo processor recently and when I try to install it, it tells me, "Your computer does not meet the hardware requirements for this update." I have installed all of the software updates that are available and it is still not working. Anyone have any ideas?!

    There isn't much you can do... There are ways of taking apart your macbook and replacing the Airport extreme card inside but it probably isn't worth it. I guess thats about it.
    Just next time, make sure you check what hardware you have before buying.

  • Airport Extreme 802.11n Enabler wont install

    hi,
    i just bought the Airport Extreme 802.11n Enabler for my MacBook Intel Core Duo. when i opened the disk image and tried to install, i got an alert saying my computer does not meet the hardware requirements - even though it is a MacBook Intel Core Duo.
    i followed all instructions on the Apple Store page before purchasing, including checking my Network Utility to verify whether i needed the software. currently i only have the 802.11 a/b/g adapter. see:

    any suggestions? my MacBook is a week 25 model.
    thanks,
    gimiwan

    Your computer needs to be a Core 2 Duo-based Mac for the enabler to install, as the necessary hardware isn't present on an older processor or a 1.83GHz 17-inch iMac. If your computer supports the enabler, install this software and try installing the enabler again.
