Airport Extreme on my Macbook and Canon IP5200R

imac g5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Many reasons why?
We need more information,
First do you have a wireless router, the iP5200r can only connect to a wireless network, it can not be used in ad hoc mode.

None of the 3 iphones in the house will connect to my airport extreme, but my macbook and iMac will, no problem. HELP!

HELP! I have comcast using a Motorola Surfboard Modem, fairly new, 3 iPhones in the house - 2 4S, 1 4, an iMac, Macbook Pro and Airport Extreme. The iMac and Macbook pro connects ot internet fine, but none of the iPhones will connect to the internet (though they do connect to the wifi singnal. I've reset the AE, even to factory default but no luck....

I discovered the solution to the problem, hopefully it helps others with the same issue.Using the airport utility (sorry, i don't recall the procedure verbatim or have access to the utility right now for exact details) find where it lists settings for 2.4ghz and 5ghz, they are probably both set to "Automatic". Change the setting for 2.4ghz from automatic to one of the channel numbers, try a number 1 - 11. Update. You might have to disconnect and connect the wireless device from the network. It worked for me!

New Set up of Airport Extreme with New Macbook and 'Old' Mac Mini

I have wirelessly connected my new Mac Book to Airport Extreme, and have tested the connection by using a shared printer. I have connected my old Mac Mini (OSX 10.3.9) via Wired LAN.The MacMini does not recognise a connection to the Airport Extreme. I would like to share files between the MacBook and the Mini, but they do not 'See' each other. What have I not done correctly?
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I have checked the IP addresses:
Mac Book nn.n.n.200
Mini nn.n.n.199
Airport nn.n.n.1
Al appear to be valid
A restart did not change anything.
I have been able to Ping each IP address succesfully from each machine, so the only aspect I can't understand is why each machine is not showing when I view the Network in Finder

Will Airport Extreme work with MacBook and PCs in a secure, wireless way?

Currently have a Netgear router that we use for wireless internet access. It is not a secured router and it's time to get a better solution. Will the Airport Extreme work easily and well with an HP laptop, HP Envy printer and my MacBook?

The Airport Extreme is compatible with all computers, even PCs and tablets and phones other than Apple too. You can easily manage/administrate the Airport Extreme and its network with your iPads and iPhone.

How come my iMac and MacBook connect to my AirPort Extreme but my iPhone and iPad 2 won't?

How come my iMac and MacBook connect to my AirPort Extreme but my iPhone and iPad 2 don't?

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I am asking if the DNS IP addresses, not the IP addresses assigned by the DHCP service, are the same. DNS is like the Internet's version of the Yellow Pages. Your ISP typically will provide them to you or you can elect to use those provided by another source, like OpenDNS.
DNS is the service that translates a website's URL to its actual IP address so that you can access it. I am just trying to rule out that the PC is not configured properly with the correct DNS IP information.
The other thing to check is if the PC is configured to use a Proxy service. By default, it would not be.
Finally, what is the make & model of the PC. More importantly, if the PC is using either a PCI or USB wireless adapter, what is its make & model?

Airport Extreme good for MacBooks, bad for iBooks

I run a school with several Airport Extremes. The MacBooks connect fine to the wireless network, the iBooks are disconnecting all the time.
The AE log shows:
Jan 12 09:00:04 Severity:5 Associated with station 00:23:12:7f:17:63
Jan 12 09:00:05 Severity:5 Installed unicast CCMP key for supplicant 00:23:12:7f:17:63
Jan 12 09:00:48 Severity:5 Disassociated with station 00:23:12:7f:17:63
This happens all the time for all of the (20) iBooks. I just showed 1 example here.
On this particular computer I was setting up management with WorkGroup Manager. After restarting I do not get the list of users, as the iBook tells me that Network Accounts are unavailable. If I log in with a local account and log off I do get the network accounts.
Even if the students log in with a local account they experience difficulties saving to a network share.

Personally, I turned off the AT&T gateway wifi, because it wasn't very stable for me. I also do a lot of home networking between devices, i.e. iPad to PC, iPhone to PC, (Remote desktop...I'm lazy), laptop. And stream from my PC to my ATV, wireless printer...etc. The AT&T gateware is a Wireless G (54 Mbps), at least mine is, and the AE is n (300 Mbps) and Extreme-ly (pun-intended) stable. I have never had to reboot it to get my wireless working, which was a frequent frustration of my Uverse gateway and other wireless routers.
In short, the main benefit I have found is stability and communcaiton between devices on my internal home network. Your Intenet connection is based on what you subsribe and pay for with AT&T, which sounds like 3 Mbps and this will not change unless you incraese your Intenet package with Uverse.
I also like the AE for the ability to enable an isolated guest network when I have family over. There is a free iPhone app that you can download that was created by Apple to configure your AE from your phone. I use the guest network with a separate password to hand out to guests versus giving them my main wireless SSID and password. The guest network can also be configured to not allow guests to see or connect to any other devices on your intenrnal network, which is more secure.

AirPort Extreme connects to MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iPhone

Using the airport extreme, everything will connect and apps that require Internet connectivity will work, however, email apps on iPhone & MacBooks will not access server. Therefore, we cannot access our email on our phones or MacBooks. Any ideas what is causing this?

Chances are that if you can access all services via the Internet on all of your devices, except mail, then there is a good chance that either your ISP or your email provider is blocking you at their server. I would suggest starting with either of these two and verify that is not the case before any further troubleshooting of your local network.

Iphone will not connect to airport express extended network - macbook and ipad will - Help

Iphone will not connect to airport express extended network - macbook and ipad will without problems.
iphone will connect to base station no problems, I've restored settings and started again but still the same, the iphone picked up the network for the last couple of months, but not now ?

I'm having the same issue. My AExpress used to give a good signal strength on the far side of the house extending he network created by my Extreme. However, I've noticed lately that my iPhone does not receive the same strong signal it once did. AE has a green light, I've rebooted it, and my Extreme but there is no change in signal strength. Other than the green light, how can I tell if the Express is working if I don't get a good network signal?

How do I set up Airport Extreme with cable modem and router?

Hi--
I'm having a house built and all of the wiring for TV, phone, and internet will be centralized in a closet. The cable modem can be placed there as well. In one room in the basement I want to use my Airport Extreme for my iMac and USB external hard drives. In another location of the basement, I'd like to set up a Time Capsule for another desktop and USB printer. If the cat5e comes out of the wall at each location, I "think" I need a router at the closet location. I also thought I might need an Airport Express upstairs on first or second floor to boost signal for my laptop. The house isn't that big so maybe that's overkill. So beyond the router question, do I want to set up a roaming network and have the Airport Express connected via ethernet or just wireless if the thought is that I need this? Finally, if I should connect cable modem to router to Airport Extreme, Time Capsule, etc., in what order and ports does the equipment get connected? Many thanks!!

Welcome to the discussions, Forum Girl!
It would be best to position the cable modem and main router in the central location like the closet if possible. The other devices would connect via ethernet to the wall jacks in each room.
If you could setup a "roaming" wireless network as you mention, this will give you better wireless performance and coverage. This is the way commercial establishments like airports, businesses, etc. are configured for wireless.
The order of connection would go something like this: ethernet connection > cable modem >main router>devices. Devices could be computers, routers, a backup device, etc. Since the Extreme has only 3 LAN ports for ethernet connections, you will also need to plan to install an "ethernet switch" near the location of the main router to provide enough ethernet jacks. If you are planning to use DirectTV, etc or your audio/video devices require ethernet connections (most new products do for updates and extra features), be sure to plan for that as well.
Make sure that CAT5e or CAT6 wiring is run so you will be able to take advantage of faster gigabit speeds.
Finally, it would be a good idea to work with an IT specialist to go over your plans to make sure all the bases are covered. This would be money well spent.

I have an Airport Extreme as my router and am using time capsule to extend the network in my new house. My ISP is only providing me 4-5 ip addresses and wants me to set up my router to issue out new ip addresses for all my devices.How do I fix this?Help

They said I need to change my settings to NAT settings. I haven't been able to figure out or find anything. I have also spoken to Apple Support on the phone for hours without being able to figure out how to do this ( i don't think he knew much either lol.) Please help me because I've got about 15-20 devices in my house that require to be connected to the internet and this is just making things ridiculously slow and painful for me.
Thanks!

It is on DHCP & NAT under router mode yet my isp is still the one issuing ip addresses to my devices instead of the router issuing them

My airport express is still providing a link to my wifi network but I can't find my airport express on my macbook and i can't link to my bose speakers through it ... any bright ideas?

I'm not sure what you mean. You can't find the express to set it up.. or you can't find the network created by the express?

I have gifted an airport extreme to a neighbor and I assumed she would be able to connect and "create a new network" with a new password on her iPhone. That didn't happen. It keeps asking for my password. What next? Thanks!

Have them perform a complete power recycle of their networking hardware. Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details. Also, make sure that they perform a "factory default" reset on the AirPort (as described in the tip) to be sure to return the AirPort back to its "out-of-th-box" configuration.

HT4145 I have an Airport Extreme bas station now and I want to know if I can use an Airport Express to extend my network or do I have to use another Airport Extreme base.

I have an Airport Extreme Base Station now and I would like to know if I can use an Airport Express to extend my wifi network or do I have to use another Airport Extreme Base Station.

This AirPort Express:
http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/
It is the only Express with 2 Ethernet ports. All others are "old"
Apple does not specify a model number in their product information, but it is A1392 in the U.S. I do not know if Apple uses different model numbers in other countries.

Am replacing airport extreme with Time Machine and want to upgrade from Tiger to Snow leopard. Am told I should manually back up into T Machine before OS update but set up utility won't allow anything with OS below 10.5 and I'm 10.4.11. What to do?

I think you mean you are replacing your Airport Extreme with a Time Capsule. Time Machine is software integrated into OS X 10.5 & 10.6 used to automatically backup a system to an external HD. Time Capsule is an Airport Extreme that has a hard disk integrated into it that can be used for storage or as a Time Machine backup drive.
Because you are currently on Tiger 10.4.x you can backup to a external HD using SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner. Having a backup is very wise before doing any major system update. After you have created the backup and have successfully upgraded to Snow Leopard you can still use the external HD for many things. The strategy I'd recommend is to use the new Time Capsule as your Time Machine backup and then use the external HD as backup using SuperDuper or CCC. Redundant backups is wise because backups can (and do) fail too! In addition both SD and CCC are bootable clones, this is useful in that if your internal HD crashes you can boot from a cloned drive and continue working until the internal HD is replaced.
Below are some links to some articles from MacWorld, I would recommend reading them where you find a common theme, redundant backups. Backup Plan I, Backup Plan II & Backup Plan III.

Hi I just bought the airport express, plugged it in and opened my airport utilities on my macbook and it doesn't seem to recognise it anyone have an idea what I should do?

If you are trying to configure the AirPort Express using wireless, you must first log on to the wireless signal that the Express is broadcasting to establish a connection.
Look for a wireless network with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx where the "x" could be a number or letter. No password is required to log on.
Most folks find it easier to temporarily connect using an Ethernet able as stic suggests in his post....if you have one handy. Once the device is configured, you can disconnect the Ethernet cable.
