Airport Extreme default IP
Hi there, I just bought an Airport Extreme and it works on the default IP ending with 1, I mean, 10.0.1.1 or 192.168.0.1, etc, and I just wondering if I could change that IP. I need it to work with the IP ending with 254.
Thanks,
Welcome to the discussions!
Sorry, you won't be able to change the default settings that you are referring to.

Airport Extreme "default password" error
After resetting Extreme, I cannot rectify the amber light error for "default password in use".
The password is not set to the default.
Have tried various new passwords, but after updating each time nothing changes.
All internet and wireless connections apper to be working 100% - it's just annoying the **** out of me..........Open AirPort Utility 6.1, click on the AirPort Extreme icon, and click Edit in the window that appears
Click the Base Station tab at the top of the window
Edit out / backspace the Base Station Password and enter a new password. Write that down.
Do the same to Verify Password
Click Update at the lower right of the window and allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart
You should have a green light, unless you still have other default settings that need to be changed. -
Airport extreme default host won't stick
Hi all, I am using the newest version of the airport extreme and newest version of airport utility. I have a mac mini server running on my LAN with a manually set IP address of 10.0.1.15. I have my DHCP range on my airport set to start at 10.0.1.16-200.
I have tried to set the default host to 15 multiple times but it keeps resetting to 253. I don't get what is happening here but it's a really big PITA. I'd like to be able to access my server for things like VPN and screen sharing without having to manually set every individual service as well as dealing with the newest icloud port conflicts that the airport utilities report.
Can anyone offer any suggestions as to why this might be happening?I am having the same issue on my airport extreme. I am using software version 6.2 , I have slightly different IPs but the same scenario.
Very frustrating!!
Add to it the fact that I can no longer see the clients that are on my router from the router itself.... -
Airport Extreme replacing an old router
I am trying to replace my old Lyinksys router for my newm Aiport Extreme. I follow all instruction and conected the Airport to Lyinksys and it copied all informormation from Lynksys. But as I understood and I am replacing the Lyinksys for the Aiport I might disconect one fron other, disconect the Lynksys fron DSL !odem and conect the Airport to the modem. But when I do that the Airport doesn'T apear in my Ipad. It apears only conect to Lynksys as Slave.
How must I procedure.Your issue is the Airport Extreme default settings is in Bridge Mode. Since you are replacing your current linksys router with this Airport Extreme you will need to make a settings change. Do the following.
1. Plug in ethernet cord from your computer into the WAN port (Main port with like a circle icon)
2. Open Airport Utility Software
3. Click on Manual Setup
4. Click on the "Internet Tab"
** Under Internet Connection Tab, at the bottom it says Connection Sharing.
5. Change that from Bridge Mode to Share a public IP address
**I can get deeper into setting up a lot of stuff but lets just leave the rest to default**
6. Hit Update
**You may get error's because your are connecting to your computer in the WAN port that is okay just ignore them.
7. Unplug Ethernet cord from computer.
8. Connect a ethernet cord from your DSL modem box into your WAN port on the apple router.
Let me know if this fixes your issue. Also remove the linksys modem because it will mess up your setup. -
My airport extreme (generation 5) was set up using wifi and has worked flawlessly (on macbook pro 2 iphones and window 7 HP pc)until recently. I have reset to factory defaults over and over but still cannot get on the internet. However I can then take my DSL cord and insert it in a different Ethernet port other than the WAN port and I can get internet on my Mac and iphones but only wifi on my husband's PC. I hate to spend another $179 if this is just something I'm doing wrong. Please help
I'm having a bit of trouble confirming that the ZyXEL is a combination modem & wireless-N router. If it is, then you really won't get any advantages of using the 802.11g AirPort.
If the range of your ZyXEL is limited, you may find that doing either or both of the following will help: 1) Move the ZyXEL so that it is higher vs. lower in the room, that is away from any closed areas or placed in a metal cabinet, and 2) Changing radio channels. The latter is especially important in you live in an area where there are a number of competing Wi-Fi.
A good utility to find out, is iStumbler. You would use this to find these other Wi-Fi and find which have the strongest signal value. Those that do, you would also want to note which channel they are operating on, and then, change yours to one that is at least 3-5 channels away. So, for example, if you find strong ones on channels 1 & 6, change yours to 11. -
Mac Pro Lion & Default Connect To 5Ghz Airport Extreme
Hi there
I just got an Airport Extreme last week, setting it up to have a dedicated 5Ghz network as well as the 2.4Ghz one...
My Mac Pro is set up to only remember the 5Ghz, to ask me to join new network and not to remember networks I join... it's also configured to require admin password to change networks... all of this is done in an effort to prevent it from joining the 2.4Ghz network, yet it still does sometimes when I reboot my Mac or the base station itself...
In addition, despite having 'Remember Networks' de-selected, it still remembers the 2.4Ghz...
Any ideas?
Thanks!

So I should name the '5Ghz network name' as the exact name as my 2.4Ghz network?
As a test, yes. That is also Apple's recommended default setting for the AirPort Extreme....designed to deliver the best performance for most users. Devices automatically choose the best connection quality this way.
It actually seems that you can't do this... going under 'Wireless Options' and trying to name the 5Ghz network with the same SSID as the 2.4Ghz results in it renaming itself after the update to the default Apple specifies (i.e, 2.4Ghz name 5Ghz)...
Bob Timmons wrote:
I thought that I wanted to separate my N devices from the rest of the network so as to achieve max speed
"n" devices operate on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Not sure what you mean by "separating" them. Some "n" 2.4 GHz devices cannot connect to 5 GHz, so you would want them to connect to "n" speeds on 2.4 GHz.
If you find 5 GHz faster at all Mac locations, then you'll have to continue to look for a way to insure that the Mac always connects to 5 GHz. As it stands, it appears that the Mac "thinks" that 2.4 GHz may be the better connection, and it may need some convincing to think otherwise.
That's true, but my understanding (and experience) is that if you connect any 'g' or 'b' devices to the 2.4Ghz network, any 'n' device will have its performance degraded... for instance, in my case, when connected to the 2.4Ghz, my Finder copies were around 3MB/s - on the 5Ghz, they were closer to 6MB/s
I thought that the preferred networks order was to specify preference, regardless of network strength... I guess not, though... although, maybe something is amiss because I do have it configured to require a password when changing networks and it doesn't do that at all... even when I change them manually... -
Default gateway airport extreme
I am helping a friend with a new Airport Extreme set up. The internet provider (satellite) is requiring a unique Default Gateway number to be entered however we cannot find the field for this in the Airport utility and searching the Internet has not helped us.
Could someone give me a suggestion on how to set this up?
ThanksDefault Gateway = Router Address in the AirPort Utility.

What is the default ip address for the Time Capsule and Airport Extreme?
What is the default ip address for the Time Capsule and Airport Extreme?
Open Airport Utility to find out the real IP address of the network connection. DHCP addresses are assigned by the router in the range chosen in Airport Utility.

Is there a default IP address for AirPort Extreme?
Hi I'm new to using AirPort Extreme router and I would like to know if there is a default IP address? I do not see any info on the router case ( similar to what is done with other routers). Thanks.
If you are asking about the default IP address as a means to configure the AirPort router, Apple does not use a web based configuration setup.
Instead, an application named AirPort Utility is used to administer the AirPort Routers. -
Can I reset the default IP address of Airport Extreme?
My old Linksys router is showing it's age and needs replacing (2 of 4 ports no longer work and router requires frequent resets). I want to use an Airport Extreme base station to replace it so that I can then use my Airport Express to extend my network. Can I reset the default ip of the AEBS to match what I was using with the Linksys so that I won't have to change several static ip addresses in devices that don't play well with DHCP?
The AEBS is limited in its ability to use different IP address ranges for connected clients.
The internal or local DHCP range can be set to utilize......
10.0.x.2 to 200
192.168.x.2 to 200
172.16.x.2 to 200
The AirPort Extreme itself would always have a local IP address that would look like....
10.0.x.1
192.168.x.1
172.16.x.1
In other words, the AEBS would always have a .1 desigator by default. This cannnot be changed. -
What's the default IP address of Airport Extreme
Good evening.
I just got my new airport extreme. I'll be setting it up tomorrow, but in the meantime was wondering what the default IP address of the unit is (i.e., 192.168.x.x, etc.)
Thanks.wyzard,
The default IP address for the new Airport Extreme base station as seen from the LAN side is 10.0.1.1.

Airport extreme DMZ/ Default Host PS4
Hey,
I'm trying to get rid of some lag putting my airport extreme to DMZ mode or Default Host as airport utility calls it. I have set up a static IP Address on my PS4 and enabled default host on my AE router for that IP, but I still get NAT Type 2 on my PS4 and quite a bit of lag. I have as a secondary measure opened up a whole lot of ports in port settings, sadly I cannot find a way to enable a range of ports, because a lot of guides online say that you open port say A, B and C and then D - G.
So my questions are, is there anything else you need to do than enable default host to get open NAT type? And is there a way to verify that it is indeed working?
Is there any way to open a range of ports in port settings?
Thanks for any assistance in advance!Unfortunately, just placing your PS4 in a DMZ/Default Host, with an Apple router, will not guarantee that it will give you a less restrictive NAT type. Most game consoles manufacturers do not recommend Apple routers. I believe it is primarily because these routers do not support uPNP.
You can select a range of port by using a hyphen between the port values, as you have shown as "D - G." Note: However do not include any spaces between the hyphen. -
Reset button is broken. Which pins do I short to reset my Airport Extreme to factory defaults?
I'm working on a 4th Generation Airport Extreme A1354. I do not know the password and I was not able to perform the software, hardware, or factory default reset procedures. (I never got the fast blinking amber light.)
I suspected a broken reset switch and took the gray cover off to find the reset button was indeed broken. Upon slight maneuvering, the button fell off the board.
I think I can perform a factory default reset by jumpering where the reset switch was. Which pins do I short to perform the factory default procedure without the reset button working?
Trying to upload pictures that show my issue.I don't often work on extreme.. mostly Time Capsule.. but the switch is surface mount.. no pins go through the board.. you will need to lift the board right out of the frame, (it all comes out in one piece and is fairly easy to do).. and you will need to short the two pins right at the switch .. but hopefully with it right out the switch itself will become accessible.

How do I create a new password for my Airport Extreme if I do not know the old password?
If you have the Mac that you used to configure the AirPort Extreme originally, you may be able to retrieve the password from KeyChain Access.
See this User Tip from forum expert Tesserax:
AirPort - Regain Access from Forgotten Passwords
If still no luck, you can reset the passwords again. Pay very close attention to the information about a Soft Reset in this Apple support document:

I'm trying to access my airport extreme by using IP 10.0.1.1 but I get no log in screen. Where is my login screen?
Download and install......
AirPort Utility 5.5.3 for Windows - Support - Apple.......assumes that you are running XP SP3
or
AirPort Utility 5.4.2 for Windows - Support - Apple......assumes that you running XP SP2
and
Bonjour Print Services for Windows v2.0.2 - Support - Apple
Expect the Windows Firewall to block the connection attempt between the application and the AirPort, so you will likely have to turn it off to configure the AirPort.
The anti-virus program and Microsoft Security Essentials can do the same thing.
