Airport Extreme ethernet not working with Windows XP

Windows XP no longer connects to the Internet via the Airport Extreme ethernet port. XP says the cable isn't plugged in but when I connect XP directly to the DSL modem it works fine. When I connect my MacBook Pro to the Internet through the Airport Extreme ethernet port it works fine. (I'm sure it's connected by ethernet because I do +sudo ifconfig en1 down+.) I can't figure it out. I'm relatively certain Airport Extreme is blocking XP from connecting via ethernet but I'm not certain. It worked without a glitch for about two years. Lightning fried my old DSL modem and ever since I got the new one, XP "can't see" Airport Extreme, but will connect directly to the DSL modem and the net without a hitch. Any insight will be much appreciated.

I'm not sure why your PC is not able to connect to the AirPort Extreme Base Station's (AEBS) Ethernet port, but it is likely the lightning strike may have something to do with it. I'm also a bit surprised you're were able to run the "sudo ifconfig" command under Windows.
To rule out general communications issues between the modem and the AEBS, I suggest that you try a complete power recycle of all your network components as follows ...
Try the following, in order, checking for Internet access after each step, until resolved:
1. If the modem has a reset switch, use it to reset the modem. Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the modem to initialize.
2. Remove power from the modem. If it has a backup battery, remove this as well. Wait 5-10 minutes. Replace the battery, and add power back to the modem.
3. Perform a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
o Power-off the modem, AEBS, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the AEBS; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
o Power-off the modem, AEBS, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the AEBS; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
4. Contact your ISP to have them perform a "modem reset."

Airport extreme will not boot with USB hard disk plugged in.

Hi there,
I'm using the Airport Extreme Base Station, and I find that if I have a USB hard disk plugged into it, it will not boot up, it only hang-ups with an amber light, and stays there indefinitely. It's not a terrible issue because it can be overcome by unplugging the disk then rebooting, but it's irritating, especially when I'm not home and there is a power temporary outage and my wife can no longer access the internet or I can no longer access my disks over the internet.
Is there a solution to this problem?
Thanks,
Marc

I'm going to have to replace the unit, as I'm unable to turn off DHCP services, which is wreaking havoc on my server based environment.
Considering THIS issue *AND* the major DHCP show stopper, frankly, I'm debating etiher the fire pit or tossing the damned thing into the intersection and watching it be reduced to the trash that it is.
Either way, there'll be 7 feet of pack ice in **** before I buy another Apple networking product.
I'll decide later, with a jaundiced eye, regarding our XServe unit. Might reformat it to Linux...

Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved!

Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved... At least for me!
Here's what I had to do to make it work with the newest 7.3.1 firmware.
Ready for this? No Joke Really!
1. Connect your USB drive to the Airport Extreme.
2. Turn it on.
3. Open the Airport Utility.
4. Go to Manual Setup.
5. Choose Disks and File Sharing.
Yep, we are going to set file sharing before we even see the disk we want to share!
You (I) had to set File Sharing on and Share Disks over Ethernet checked as well as set the Work Group (In my case). THEN restart the Airport Extreme.
After it re-started... My USB Drive was now present and ready for use.
I also dis-allowed Guest access. I re-started ALL computers in my network, both Windows and MAC. The USB drive held and works GREAT!
I know... Most of you thought this was a joke, It's not!
I tried everything to get the USB drive to work and failed every time just like most other people. Doing it this way worked like a charm.
Go Figure huh!
Hope this helps someone with this issue.

How was the usb hard drive formatted? Was it NTFS, FAT32, or HFS+?

My airport extreme will not connect to the Internet

My airport extreme will not connect to my toshiba router. I connected it to my office internet this morning but when I hooked it up at home it simply will not connect. I have tried resetting all the settings and have had no luck. It did work once upon a time. I currently have my airport express hooked up so I know there is connectivity.

I could never figure it out after trying everything I could and going to the genius bar I ended up just purchasing another extreme. The really funny thing is that I can set up a network between the two and it works fine. I am using it at work now with out any problems so I guess there is really no loss :-?

TS1538 Ipod Classic will not work with Windows 8. Is there a fix?

When will the fix be available?
When I try to Sync my ipod, nothing happens.

Hi,
You can download the latest official Firefox here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
You may also have to install [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7u9-downloads-1859586.html Java] (choose either Windows x86 Offline or Windows x86 Online), and [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Flash] (choose the Firefox version and also deselect extras).
For the Firefox metro version, please see [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Windows_8_Integration#Elm_Nightly_Builds this]. You can install and use it along with the other version.

I have ipod classic 5gen it will not sync with windows the error message says ipod can not sync as required file missing wht to do???

i have ipod classic 5gen it will not sync with windows the error message says ipod can not sync as required file missing wht to do???

Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
Have a nice day!

Centro & Treo 650 will not sync with Windows 7

The 6.2 software will not work with windows 7. I have a new computer and can not get the phones to hot sync with my new computer. The Bluetooth does not recognize either of the phones. None of the other Bluetooth devices nor my car recognizes the phones. I do not have a data package with the phones so doing anything over the internet is out of the question. How do I get all the information that is on my two phones onto my computer?

Try a low-tech solution. Check the condition of the HotSync port connection on both the T3 and the cradle.
Look for any possible corrosion, coating, or bent fingers in the cradle. Sometimes a good cleaning with either Contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol can work miracles! (Use a q-tip swabbed in it, do not pour it onto the PDA).

My office professional will not run with windows 8.1

my office professional will not run with windows 8.1 It ran fine on 7 and 8 but not 8.1

Microsoft Windows 8.1 officially supports all currently supported Microsoft Office versions including Office 2013 / 2010 / 2007 / 2003 , and may be even earlier versions unofficially. I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus on my Windows 8.1 and it runs fine with no issues. Could you try what has already been suggested by others including Big_Dave and reinstall Microsoft Office with complete reboot/restart between uninstall/new installation <restart, not shut down and start over>. If this doesn't work, please post again if installation went fine, what exactly is the error code (if any), what is the problem exactly, any screenshots ?

My new AirPort Extreme will not turn on anymore, no lights when plugged in.

My new AirPort Extreme will not turn on anymore, no lights when plugged in. I just bought it a few days ago. It has been working fine. I left the house for most the day and when returning home it would turn back on. I have tried to plug it into other outlets...nothing, I've tried the reset button...Nothing.

That is reported here a few times.. just take it straight back to apple or place of purchase for immediate exchange.

Airport extreme card not working with leopard / G5

I just upgraded my PowerMac to leopard (G5 dual 1.8, 3 gigs of ram, 250 GB HD). I bought it new in December 2004 from apple. Previously I had been using a USB adapter to connect to my wireless internet at home (Linksys WRT54G). This device does not support leopard so I got an airport extreme card from gainsaver.com.
The Airport extreme card is configured properly as far as I know but it will only connect to my network for about 5 seconds then it drops. The USB adapter worked perfectly in the same spot and my macbook right next to it works fine as well.
1. Could it be a bad Airport extreme card?
2. Is this a known issue? And possibly be resolved with the 10.5.2 update?
It is a fresh Leopard install with no updates as I can not connect it to the internet to get them. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi, I have the same machine (4 ram slots?) have you got the connector for the aerial that connects to the motherboard attached to your airport card. Mine works a treat.

Airport Extreme will not allow me to access settings

I have an Airport Extreme (the new one with 801n) and wanted to add an USB hard drive to it. The system did not recognize the external drive. I tried to access the router settings using the airport software on my MacBook Pro. The software recognizes the router but will not access the settings. I get an error that the settings cannot be accessed. I then did a soft resst with no luck. I finally did a hard reset and I still cannot access the router settings. I tried with an Ethernet cable direct, no luck. I can still access the internet through the router but that is it. The router has the latest firmware 7.1.1 don’t know what to do next.

When changing ISPs (or networking equipment) it's always a good idea to start from "scratch" in configuring your equipment.
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
Power-up the base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes.
Power-up your computer(s).
In this basic configuration, computers connected to the base station, either by wire or wireless (as appropriate for the base station type), should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options.

Airport Extreme will not secure wi-fi signal

I just had my AT&T DSL service activated, and I am trying to secure the wi-fi network using Airport Utility 6.2. My Airport Extreme is broadcasting the unsecured signal but I am completely unable to secure it.
Modem and router are hooked up correctly. I have to configure the base station for the unsecured signal to begin broadcasting. If I cancel the configure, the signal goes away completely.
So I configure the base station again, and I'm presented with a screen that reads "This Airport Extreme will create a network" and am presented with four fields: Network Name, Base Station Name, Password and Verify.
I enter a password and verify it, and am then given a screen to "Provide my PPPoE information I received from my ISP." I do that, and it spins for about a minute and says I am connected to the network I created. Except there is no wifi signal and no connection.
It has been like this for four days now. I am at my wit's end. ATT insists that the problem is not on their end. Any help anyone can give is appreciated. Thanks.

So to be clear - you have a DSL modem from AT&T, and want your Airport Extreme to broadcast this signal as well as route it?
You say you hooked up the modem and router correctly, are you able to get connection when plugging into the LAN port on the Airport Extreme?
