Airport Extreme: Specification power supply

Hello:
after having read all the existing material on this site, I still have a very easy question:
The power supply for the Airport Extreme, which electrical power range does it support? Does it only work in the US (100-120V) or would it also work abroad (eg. 100-240V)?
Would be nice if someone could have a look at the bottom of the power supply and post the result.
Thanks.
Peter.

The Airport Extreme Base Station (802.11n) supports 100-240V.
Regards,
Chris

Installing Airport Extreme on Power/PC G4 Tower Mirror Doors 400 Firewire

I read on the internet that installation of Airport Extreme was only possible on G4 Silver Tower with Mirror Doors that has Firewire 800. I called Apple technical and they said Airport Extreme could be installed on my 400 Firewire. If so, can someone forward me the documentation on where and how to install on my G4.
I appreciate.
Thanks,
Aerial

AerialZeno, Welcome to the discussion area!
The person you talked to was confused and gave you incorrect information.
The correct DIY instructions are KB 26259, Power Mac G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors): CIP Instructions.
A 1.25 GHz Power Mac G4 is either the "Power Mac G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors)" or "Power Mac G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors 2003)".
In KB 42739, Power Mac G4: How to Differentiate Between Models, Part 2 the entry for AirPort does NOT include the note for the AirPort Extreme card because those Macs are not compatible with the AirPort Extreme card. Only the Power Mac G4 (FW800) has that note.
KB 106777, AirPort Card: Compatible Macintosh Computers includes "Power Mac G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors)" in the list of compatible computers.
KB 107440, AirPort Extreme Card: Compatible Macintosh computers that Power Mac G4 is NOT included in the list of compatible computers. The only Power Mac G4 on that list is the "Power Mac G4 (FW800)".

New airport extreme loses power.

I am using my new ME918LL/A Airport Extreme as a bridge to extend a home network. After several hours the unit will lose power as is indicated by the light going out and the unit being unavailable on Airport Utility. Resets do not work, the only option is to unplug and plug in the unit.

Hi Bob, thanks for your reply... here goes:
First thing to note, when Airport Utility is opened it may take several launches before it even recognizes the ABS. Also, sometimes the status in the Airport Utility says Orange/Yellow for the internet connection even when we can test the connection directly to a MacBook Air and it's fine.
In the smaller window that appears, check to see if there is a listing for Status
If yes, click on the green or amber dot next to Status, and post back the message that you see there
No Status label.
Next, click on Edit in the lower right corner of the same window
Click the Internet tab at the top of the next window
What is the setting for Connect Using?
DHCP
Next, click on the Network tab at the top of the window
What is the setting for Router Mode?
DHCP and NAT
Click the Base Station tab and note the Base Station Name
How many characters, including blank spaces, are there in the name?
Are there any special characters, like an apostrophe, asterisk, dollar sign, etc in the name?
19 characters, no special characters, two spaces
Click the Wireless tab
Note the Wireless Network Name
How many characters, including blank spaces, are there in the name of the wireless network?
Are there any special characters, like an apostrophe, asterisk, dollar sign, etc in the name?
9 characters in the network name, no special characters, no spaces.
The Yosemite operating system has a number of network bugs that are creating issues for a number of users. Are you running Yosemite on your Mac?
Yes, Yosemite on all three Macs, but, again, never had any issue with networking with the previous Airport Extreme. The only thing different between this ABS and the previous one is that i enabled the separate 5Ghz networking option.

Airport Extreme self power off.

Hi everybody!
I've just bought new Airport Extreme 802.11ac and its turning off, when there is no device connected.
Does anybody know how to fix this strange thing?

I suggest that you return the defective AirPort Extreme to an Apple Store and obtain a replacement device.
If you do not have an Apple Store near you, contact Apple Support directly.

Airport extreme needs power recycled

I had an old AirPort, which finally quit after six years of long continuous service. I replaced it a few months ago with a new one. As of late (over the past week or so), I find I have to cycle the power on it, to reset it, because it appears to drop the signal and I lose my internet connection. I find I have to do this at least once a day, which is very aggravating. Has anyone had this issue?
This new one is not very old, but I chose to replace the old one with a new AirPort, because of of its ease to print remotely. 'm beginning to think my choice was not the right one. Signal strength in combination with my MacBook Pro is iffy a lot of the time.

Thanks for your inputs.
To answer them in some sort of order...
Yes, it's the same plug. In fact it plugged into a UPS.
I have tried changing the channel, but this takes a little time to see if has any effect, but so far it has made little impact.
Thanks much for the iStumbler. It's a cool tool, so I'm sure that it gives me a view of the neighborhood I didn't have.
Just to fill in a few holes in the info...
My home hasn't been much help. The spot isn't more than 30 ft. from where I use it, but where I get 18 Mb+ in the same room, this can drop to about 3 to 5 Mb around the corner where I actually do most of my work. I use http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ as a site to benchmark my performance, and from what I experience, it's not too far off.
My MacBook has also not been the greatest as far as reception. It is far inferior to the other laptops in the same room. It show a much weaker signal than either one, and has even been known to drop off line, when the other two laptops show a strong signal. Apple replaced the wireless card in it, but it hasn't made much difference overall. In general, the MacBook Pro wireless performance is underwhelming compared to all the other systems I've used, including an iBook that is seven years old, and the workhorse of my music and internet radio. However to be fair, I get a better signal on my MacBook Pro from the wireless router across the street and two doors down, than I do from my own airport. They are not Mac users.
The latest issue with the AirPort only accentuates the problem. When the AirPort needs to have the power recycled, all of the laptops lose the signal, so it isn't just the poorer reception of the MacBook.
I guess that's about it.
Thanks again for your help.
you did not place your extreme in an enclosure or in a spot that might affect its ability to send out a clear signal ? is it a +wireless n-capable+ model ? is the extreme your main wireless router connected to a cable modem ?
have you tested if adjusting +multicast rate+ changes anything ? have you enabled +wide channels+ and +interference robustness+ ? is the +transmit power+ set to 100 % ?
you might want to consider getting an +airport express+ to extend your network.

Problems setting up Verizon DSL (DHCP) and AirPort Extreme

I have Verizon DSL with DHCP and old router (Linksys WRT54G). I've bought iMac and new router (AirPort Extreme) to connect to iMac wirelessly. I have a Windows computer connected to the Linksys WRT54G. Now here is the story. I can connect verizon DSL modem (it's in bridge mode) to PC directly and connect to the Internet. When I plug AirPort between the DSL modem and PC, auto-configuration doesn't work, AirPort utility says there is problem with internet connection. Router simply can't obtain IP address from verizon's DHCP server. I've tried to copy DNS server addressed from the IP configuration in Windows, the AirPort light went green and Windows indicated connection as successful, however I still cound't browse the Internet because gateway is not set. Any ideas how to make AirPort connect to the internet using DHCP instead of manual settings? I can try to do it from the mac if needed, I don't think it would make any difference though.

Welcome to the discussions!
Sorry, I can't quite track exactly what you are trying to do.
What would the network that you are trying to set up look like?
Modem>AirPort Extreme>Computers? Are you saying that you won't be using the Linksys in the new setup?
Sounds like you need to set the Airport Extreme up to supply PPPoE service (which the Linksys is doing now-if the modem is in bridge mode), but I will wait for your response before offering specific info.
If you've been fiddling with settings, we may need to do a hard-reset on the AX to start over. You should not be fiddling with DNS, etc. Almost always, these settings are done automatically when you have the device set up correctly.

Can i plug printer into airport extreme while it is on

Can I plug a usb printer into airport extreme while it is on?

I cannot find airport in finder, don't know how to turn it off.
You will have to pull the power plug from the back of the AirPort Extreme to power it down. Wait a few seconds, then plug the cord back in.
Or, you can pulll the plug where the power supply plugs into the wall socket if that is easier.

New AirPort Extreme will not connect to internet

Purchased AirPort Extreme to replace older D Link 655 router. All of my Apple gear has been plug and play except this
Extreme router. I cannot get an internet connection to save my soul. I tried connecting thru both my MacBook Pro and my HP Pavilion dv6. I just assumed I could move the ethernet cord from the DIR-655 to the AirPort and all would be fine. Not so. I have reset, unplugged and restarted so many times I lost count. Nothing works. What am I doing wrong. I even swapped out at store where I bought thinking I had defective router. any ideas? My wife works from home and I really need a better router with greater reach and thought this was it. Please help.

Simply restarting the modem will not always allow it to reset correctly so that it will issue a new valid IP address to the AirPort Extreme.
Power off the cable modem completely for at least 30 minutes....longer will not hurt. Be sure to unplug the power cord from the back of the modem or unplug the power cord at the AC wall jack. If the modem has an easily accessible battery, pull the battery.
Power off the AirPort Extreme as well.
After the modem power down period, insure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme. Reinstall the modem battery if it was installed previously.
Power up the modem and let it run for 10 minutes by itself.
Then power up the AirPort Extreme and let it run for a few minutes. Check to see if the Internet connection is working correctly now.

How do I use a 2nd Airport Extreme plugged into an Ethernet Wall Plug to join an existing wireless network to give me a better signal upstairs?

I have a 5th generation Airport Extreme giving me a great wireless signal on the 1st floor of my house. However the signal upstairs is weak. So I purchased another 5th generation Airport Extreme that I would like to plug into an ethernet wall plug upstairs. I would then like to have the upstairs Airport Extreme join the same network thus giving me a good wirelss signal upstairs. I have a MacBook Pro running OS 10.7.4. Can somebody give me step-by-step directions to set up the upstairs Airport Extreme?

I assume that the new AirPort Extreme is still in its original factory default settings.
Before you connect the AirPort Extreme, please connect a laptop to the Ethernet cable that will be used for the connection and turn off the wireless on the laptop. Make sure that you can can connect to the Internet before you begin to configure the AirPort Extreme.
Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the laptop and connect it to the WAN "O" port on the upstairs AirPort Extreme and power it up.
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility 6.1
Look in the upper left hand corner of the screen for a tab or box that reads "Other AirPort Base Stations (1)"
Click on that box,then click on the name AirPort Extreme xxxxxx
Wait a moment while AirPort Utility analyzes the network and then displays a message that the AirPort Extreme will be configured to extend your existing wireless network.
Enter a Base Station (device) name for the AirPort Extreme (and a device password if prompted), then click Next.
Wait another minute or two until AirPort Utility notifies you that the AirPort Extreme has been Set Up.
That's it.

HT4259 How do I set up an Airport Extreme Base Station (v. 7.6.1) to allow wireless network extension?

I have an Airport Extreme Base station (purchased in 2009) and an Airport Express base station (purchased in 2011 - the model that plugs directly into the electrical outlet) (both version 7.6.1 according to the Airport Utility info). I want to use the Airport Express to extend my wireless network. Using Airport utility setup I have a software option on the Airport Express to set it up to extend the network but I do not have an option on the Airport Extreme wireless setup screen that I can check to allow my wireless network to be extended.
All of the documentation I can find on Apple Support states that I should have an option I can check to allow the wireless network to be extended while in the wireles setup section for the Airport Extreme in Airport Utility; but, that check option isn't there. Is this a case of my Airport Extreme base station being too old to offer that option? Incidentally, when I try to select the extend wireless network option on the Airport Express from the Airport Utility wireless setup menu I get an error message (no details - just an error message). The same Airport Express sets up fine if I select join a network (not what I want to do). Am I just dealing with outdated equipment or does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks.

Close AirPort Utility if it is open.
Temporarily, move the Express to the same general area as your AirPort Extreme and power it up and wait a minute.
Hold in the reset button on the Express for 9-10 seconds and then release. Give the Express a full minute to restart to a slow, blinking amber light.
Click the AirPort icon at the top of the Mac's screen and wait a few seconds for a listing of New AirPort Base Station to appear
Click on AirPort Express just below that and AirPort Utility will automatically open
Wait a minute while AirPort Utility analyzes the network and announces that the Express will be configured to "Extend" the AirPort Extreme network.
Enter a device name for the AirPort Express and click Next
Wait another minute to allow the configuration to occur.
When you see the Setup Complete message, click Done.
Now move the Express to a location that is approximately half the distance from the AirPort Extreme and the general area that needs more wireless coverage
Power up the Express and you are all set. Trash those old instructions.

Using time machine backup on disk connected to airport extreme router?

So I've read a number of articles about using an external hard drive connected to the airport extreme base station as a time machine backup. The thing is that I'm writing this in august 09, most of the articles (which say the feature is officially unsupported) date about a year and a half ago. I'm wondering if there have been any developments since then.

I also have this problem -- it started about 2 weeks ago (around July 20?), possibly at the time the new Airport Extreme firmware went into effect. I have two separate Mac laptops that each use Time Machine to back up to different disks that are attached to the Airport Extreme (i.e., each laptop has its own backup-destination disk). Both were working flawlessly before (for more than 6 months); now, each one reliably drops the connection to the disk (produces an error message, and thereafter cannot re-connect to the destination disk until I cycle the Airport Extreme with power-off/on). I had hoped that 10.5.8 would help (the release notes talked about improved stability with Airport connections), but not so.

AirPort Extreme loses ethernet connection

I am running about 20 or so base stations in my school and every once in a while, a couple of the stations loose their ethernet connection. They are still broadcasting wirelessly, but they disconnect from the network. The stations are running fw5.6 and my clients are running 10.4.2 or WinXP SP2. The only way to fix the problem is to power cycle the base station. I also have the older graphite stations which work fine, which leads me to think that this is not a network issue.
Any suggestions?

I also lose ethernet connection. Sometimes once a day, other times 10 times per day. The other day I was so frustrated about losing my connection that I just walked away from it, without cycling power. When I came back (about 30 minutes later) from my cooling-off period, I found that the connection was back. So, with my AirPort Extreme, cycling power is not the only solution. It's not an acceptable solution though.
I was wondering what you mean by your statement, "They are still broadcasting wirelessly, but they disconnect from the network." I'm relatively new to this stuff and this baffled me, which isn't hard to do.

Odd Airport Extreme Issues

Hi I'm new to these discussion boards but I was wondering if someone could possibly help me with some airport issues I've been having. My roommate and I both share use an Extreme with Comcast and as far as internet goes everything is great. However outside of that it has issues with my different devices. My main complaint that I would want to be fixed the most is the issue of my PS3. When I hook up my Playstation to the base station it recognizes everything fine and goes through all the steps without an issue. When I go to test the connect though it fails when it tries to connect to the Playstation Network. I know this is an issue with the Airport cause I have the same setup at another house with a different router and have no problems. The reason I find it odd though is because it will randomly work at the most random of times. If someone could help me that would be wonderful since I've been having to live with this for almost 10 months now

+I typically do adjustments to the configuration file via wireless. Do you recommend that I only use a hard-wire connection to adjust the configuration file?+
My preference is to do any configuration changes this way and I advise users to use this method, but if wireless works reliably, there's no reason to change.
Have you checked the disk for errors using Disk Utility?
Are you using a powered USB hub with the drive? The USB port on the AirPort Extreme does not supply enough current for a number of hard drives.
FAT 32 can't handle single file sizes larger than 4 GB, so that may be something to check as well.
You are correct that Time Machine can't be used on the FAT 32 formatted disk.

How to configure iMac and Airport Extreme for remote access?

I want to view videos stored in iTunes on my iMac remotely over the Internet when I away from my home network. My home network setup includes AirPort Extreme with Comcast High Speed Internet Service (16Mbs/6Mbps). I use AirPlayit to support the iMac as a server and have the iPad 3 and iPhone 4 apps for AirPlayit. I have no problem viewing my videos over my home network on any of my mobile devices but for some reason I am unable to configure my firewall so that I can access my iMac remotely when I am away.

Turning off the wireless on the TP-Link router does not make it a simple modem.
You need to configure the AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode to operate correctly with another router on the network.
Open AirPort Utility and click on the AirPort Extreme icon, then click Edit
Click the Network tab a the top of the window
Make sure that the setting for Router Mode is "Off (Bridge Mode)"
Click Update to save the new settings
Wait 30 seconds for a green light on the AirPort Extreme, then power off the complete network....all devices....in any order you want.
Wait a minute, then start the TP-Link modem/router first and let it run a full minute
Start the AirPort Extreme next the same way
Keep starting devices one at at a time the same way until the entire network is back up.
