Airport extreme guest network can't access internet

I upgraded to the 7.6.1 a few weeks ago and recently noticed some oddities,  My guest network clients get an IP in the 10.x.x.x network but can't access the internet, the private network is just fine.  I looked on the airport utility for any advanced wireless options to indicate setting for the guest but I didn't see anything. 
Is this the desired method of operation?  My private network is using the 192.168 network, do I have to set my GUEST network to the same range in order to get out with it?
I use a lion server on the network that is also giving out IP via the Lion DHCP Service, is there some other change I need to make to the Airport Extreme to have it forward the Guest network dhcp requests to the Lion Server?
Any help would be appreciated.
Mike.

Turns out when I set my DNS server IP for my APE DHCP to my Internal IP on my Lion server, the Airport Extreme is not allowing those guests to talk to my DNS Server so I updated the DNS to be my external/Public IP and now the guest network can do DNS and access all the cool stuff on the internet.

  • I enabled the guest network feature on my time capsule.  Can I configure my airport extremes guest network feature if I use this as a network extender using a "roaming" network?

    I enabled the guest network feature on my TC.  Can I configure my airport extremes guest network feature if I use the extreme as a network extender connecting my Airport Extreme to my TC via ethernet cable?

    Unfortunately no, since the AirPort Extreme should be configured in Bridge Mode if it is connecting to the Time Capsule using an Ethernet connection.
    The Guest Network option cannot be enabled when the AirPort is configured in Bridge Mode.
    Another way of saying the same thing is that the Guest Network cannot be "extended" either by using an Ethernet connection or wireless. It is only available from the Time Capsule "main" wireless router on your network, not any extending devices.

  • When attempting  to set a password on my Airport Extreme guest network i get this "Advertising a service globally using Bonjour requires a global hostname." What can i do to set password on this network?

    When attempting to set a password on my Airport Extreme Guest Network i get this "Advertising a service globally using Bonjour requires a global hostname." What does it mean. Or what i need to do to correct it.

    When trying to troubleshoot my problem I discovered a forum that was saying certain NTFS drives work just fine
    Apple support says that an NTFS or exFAT drive cannot be used when connected to the AirPort Extreme.
    I suppose it is possible that someone might have been using some type of special software on the drive that might perform a "conversion", but without more details, it is hard to know.
    Note: ExFAT and NTFS formats aren't supported.

  • HP Pavillion dv6000 shows it is connected to Airport Extreme Guest network, but does not allow internet access.  Anyone have ideas what to do?

    My MacBookPro works fine on both primary and guest networks.  HP info shows excellent signal strength.  Web page won't open.  Tried reducing security level from WPA2personal to WPA.  Tried entering TCP/IP addresses manually in HP.  I'm told that the HP works with other WiFi routers and can access Internet through other WPA2 setups.  I'm out of ideas.  Help?

    With a PC, the Windows Firewall and/or the anti-virus software will sometimes block an attempted Internet connection.
    Check both applications to see if you can find a "blocked" item and then take steps to "allow" the connection.
    If still no luck, temporarily disable the wireless security for a short period to see if the PC can connect that way. If it can.....then you know it is security related issue.
    See if the PC can connect using a setting like WPA-PSK-TKIP. The equivalent Apple setting would be WPA/WPA2 Personal.

  • Airport Extreme - Guest Network - Bandwidth Control

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm in need to deploy a solution to someone in a bar and I wanted to know if it's possible to do it with the Airport Extreme of Apple.
    I already saw some study cases, and I not sure if it's possible to do what I pretend.
    This is the cenario:
    The user have in his office an ISP router with wireless that provides him with network connectivity for all his devices, in his office.
    But where the clients are the signal doesn't get there, so we passed a cable to the bar, and we want to deploy there network guest access to the clients.
    The thing is that we want to make the clients network to don't have access to the internal network devices, and then to controll at what velocity then can connect. Providing sometimes higher speeds, and other times lower speeds. (bandwidth management / limited).
    Is it possible for me to use the Airport extreme for that? If not, do I have any other solution?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards!

    As stated this is not consumer level router functionality.
    You either need a router that takes a third party firmware.. eg Gargoyle.. just google for it as I am not allowed to post details.
    Or you need a pro wireless hotspot solution. These are expensive..$500-1000 but work without bothering the business owner.. you provide each person who buys a drink a printout ticket with username and password.. which allow both limited time and bandwidth. It is better than just making a free for all. There are also methods where people can login with credit card details.. but I think it is better to use the ticket type system.
    For a cheap free for all.. as I said look at gargoyle.

  • Airport Extreme wired network can't assign IP address, but wireless works

    *Problem details:*
    We have three computers intermittently on, wired into the ethernet LAN managed by the Airport Extreme.
    We have a few more computers that connect to the wireless network managed by the same Airport Extreme.
    As far as I know, no fancy settings hijinks have been attempted. I manage the router, and I only plugged the Airport into the cable modem and connected all the wires to the computers. The WiFi setup went a similar way -- I just turned it on and it sorted itself out. This was eight months ago, mind you -- everything has been going quite well up until this weekend.
    But! I got home from a trip this weekend to discover that all the machines that connected over the wired network could no longer get a connection to the internet. Any machine connected over the wireless network, however, was working just fine. Indeed, my macbook pros couldn't even see the Airport Extreme when I turned off their WiFi, connected them over Ethernet and opened the Airport Extreme configuration app!
    The wired machines complain that they have a self-assigned IP address. Sometimes, after resetting everything, they look like everything's fine for a moment. Like I said, ordinarily my macbook pro does not even recognize the router over the wired network. However, after reverting to factory defaults and restarting the Airport, the laptop did see it (until a few minutes went by and it realized something was wrong).
    I figured that renewing my DHCP lease would fix this problem, but it did not. Nor did turning off Passive FTP Mode (PASV) under Proxies in the Network configuration pane.
    I have tried resetting the router to factory defaults, power cycling the modem and router in various configurations, etc. but nothing has worked. In addition, I have verified that connecting any machine to the ethernet directly from the modem will work, so the problem is definitely being introduced by the Airport Extreme.
    So I guess my question is: what do I have to poke to return everything to normal? I'd like working wired and wireless networks again.
    *Some last few details:*
    The Airport is running 7.5.2, but downgrading to 7.4.2 produced no tangible difference.
    I have an Ubee D3.0 modem. All lights are green and blinky except the DS light, which is solid amber (and it is green when the modem is wired directly to one of my computers -- it's only amber when connected to the Airport).
    Some of the machines that can't connect to the wired network are PCs, so it's not just an OSX thing.
    My roommate's XBOX 360 can connect to the internet over the wired port. It doesn't have WiFi, so I'm pretty sure there's no way it could be fooling me.
    Thanks in advance for any advice you can muster.
    EDIT FOR APOLOGIES:
    I didn't realize I was posting this in the "Airport for Windows" section. While a Windows computer's connection is a concern, I would much rather get my Macs online and deal with that first. I can't figure out how to move the message myself.

    *An update:*
    Several days later, this issue seems to have fixed itself. I suspect there may have been Funny Business on my ISP's end (but then again, it's an ISP).

  • Airport Extreme wireless network can't find my HD-DVR, thus my iPad App, DirecTV, won't work.  Please help.

    My Airport Extreme will not allow my HD-DVR (DirecTV) to connect to the wireless network. All my other wireless stuff (iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro) all work fine.  My network name is all lower case, no punctuation, no spaces. Therefore my iPad App, DirecTV, cannot find my TV, and I cannot use its features.  I am so frustrated.  DirecTV came out to my house today and told me it's all Apple's fault.  I can hardly believe that!  Please help - TIA!

    Plug a LAN port of TC by ethernet directly into the computer.
    Unplug the TC so it is fully isolated from the network.
    Do a full factory reset of the TC.
    The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
    Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
    I generally prefer to do the setup by ethernet alone but the new airport utility seems mighty wireless orientated. You might need to power off the modem and AE and everything else so you can pick up just the TC. But check that it doesn't work by ethernet first. Otherwise go to the wifi and you will see the TC listed as new device in the list of wireless AP's available.. click it and it will open the airport utility.
    Once you get into the TC give it all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    I would also not turn off its wireless.. there is no need. Just give wireless the same name as the AE, same security setting and password.
    Put the TC in bridge mode.
    Once you complete the setup .. update the TC and put it back into the network.. if you have not already done so.. restart the whole network.. restart in correct order.. modem.. AE.. TC with 2min between each one.

    Currently use Airport Express -1st Generation-to access internet -purchased 2014 Airport Extreme base station -can I import Express back up configuration to keep current settings . Or is it best to do new Airport Extreme as a new Network .

    Just spoke with Cisco about the router.  They said the router is compatible with the E1500.  They suggested that I contact Apple to see if their default IP address was that same as the router (192.168.1.1).  They told me I would have to change it if that was the case.  How would I do that?

  • I installed a new airport express and made it part of my existing home network...  now the PCs can't access internet through the airport extreme or the cisco access points

    Everything works perfect with Macs, iPhone, iPads but I have 2 pcs that now can't access internet. The PCs connect to the airport and my other access points but no internet- The PCs sent an error of DNS

    Yes, as we already said, it will do all of this if you have a good wireless signal reaching the bedroom.
    Remember that an extender or repeater or whatever you want to call it can only extend the quality of signal that it receives.
    The Ethernet signal that the Express delivers will only be as good as the quality of the wireless connection between the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express.
    If you have doubts, make sure that you understand the store's return policy before you buy.

  • Would like to setup guest network apple airport extreme will only allow limited access

    imac 10.9.3 connected to internet with airport extreme /xfinity router trying to setup guest network can't connect to internet

    The guest network feature of the Apple routers will work correctly when the Apple device connects to a simple modem.......not a modem/router or gateway type of device.
    If the guest network feature is important to you, check with your Internet Service Provider to see if they can supply you with a simple modem......which will then allow the guest network feature to work correctly on your network.

    I have a 1st generation AirPort Extreme and want to create a guest network, can I?
    This version of the AirPort Extreme does not have guest network capability.
    Can I do this by adding an Airport Express?
    Why not simply buy a new Airport Express.....which does have main and guest network capability*.....and sell the AirPort Extreme?
    * The AirPort Express will need to connect to a simple modem.....not a modem/router or gateway type of device.....for the guest network feature to work correctly.

  • New Ipod Touch 5g can't access Internet in home network (using Linksys E4200 router). But, OK with other Wifi.

    Just bought new Ipod Touch 5g. I found out it can't access Internet in home network. not really cannot access, but very slow to open any web page, App Store failed to access, etc. But, OK with other Wifi (office & starbucks). Others existing iOS devices (Iphone4 & Ipad2) have no problem like this. I'm using Linksys E4200 router at home. anyone has any idea why?

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>GeneralReset>Reset Network Settings
