Airport Utility/Airport 6th Generation + Xbox One LIVE

Here I am going to show how to configure your Airport device in order to use you Xbox One and have the NAT open, so you can have the best connection to your peers and have the advantage over your opponents.
1. Open the Airport Utility app, choose your airport device to be configured. Click on "edit".
2. Now, on your Xbox One console, find out what is its IP address and MAC address (there are two MAC address listed in the configurations Wired and Wireless, make sure to use the one that describes the way you are connected to the router). To do so, on your Xbox One console go to settings, network, and advanced settings.
3. Now back to your Computer. On the Airport Utility app, go to the Network tab. Here you are going to create a DHCP reservation for your Xbox One. Click on the + sign under DHCP reservations, and add the information you acquired from your Xbox One console earlier and save.
Example: (picture A).
4. Now you are going to configure the port settings, which allow a much better connection to Xbox LIVE servers. Click on the + sign under Port settings and type as the picture below (picture B) will show and save. NOTE: Remember that the Private IP Address should be your Xbox One's IP address. NOTE: Xbox One requires UDP 500 and 4500 which you will need to input if and only if you have iCloud turned off, otherwise it will not allow you to input them.
5. Click on "Network Options" and follow the picture (picture C) below and save.
6. Click update, and restart you Xbox One console
You are all done.

Launch Apple Airport Utility
Choose Your Apple Airport Router and select Edit
Choose the "Network" tab and in DHCP Reservations use the + icon to add the Xbox One
You can get your Xbox Ones IP and Mac ID address:

How do I configure the Airport utility to allow more than one rule per port?

How do I configure the Airport Utility (AU) to allow more than one rule per port?
I am on a home network, with broadband cable modem. I have my airport extreme connected to the broadband modem. I have 2 servers in my home that need to be accessed remotely from time (SSH), and they also serve data for an iphone app, so I'm using a variety of protocols. The problem I'm running into is that AU seems to only allow one rule per protocol, so if I go to add another address for access on a specific port that is being used by one of my servers, AU tells me "The Port Mapping Entry Already Exists".
I need to be able to allow SSH on both of my servers, for instance. Am I missing something? Is this doable with AU?
Thanks for any insight.

The Port Mapping "rules" on the AirPorts will allow you to: 1. Map a single port to a single IP address OR 2) Map multiple ports to a single IP address.
What you won't be able to do is map a single or multiple ports to multiple IP addresses.

I have two airport express base stations that I want to configure on two separate sets of speakers in two separate rooms. How do I do this? Airport Utility only seems to scan one express at a time.

I am currently running a PowerPC G5 imac and have a wired broadband modem via ethernet with airport wireless network turned on, on the G5. I have the computer in the bedroom and have an airport express wired into a mixer that connects to my stereo. I have recently bought another airport express base station to connect to a pair of active monitors in the kitchen. When I try to scan these on Airport Utility version 5.42 I am only managing to scan one base unit at a time. I have plugged them in separately and reset them, they both have firmware updates, however the utility will only read one at once. I have read that you can link base stations to the same WDS. I would like to know how to go about doing this if it will only scan one airport express at a time. I have looked it up on the net and not found anything that is a simple fix. Can anyone help? In Apple Support it says that multiple Base Stations can be used. I would like to get both Apple Airport Express units to be able play airtunes separately or at the same time depending where I am in my flat. I do not need different music in each room. I would like to stream music from the computer to multiple rooms in the flat without having to continually unplug and configure the Base Stations. Has anyone come across such a challenge? Any help would be welcome.

How do I configure the AX to connect to the hub's wireless network? It will only scan one base station Airport Express at a time in the Airport Utility. I think what I am trying to do is use the hub as a router to the two AX's. Is there a specific way to set this up?
To set up the AX to join a wireless network as a "Wireless Client," using the AirPort Utility, either connect to the AX's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
Launch the AirPort Utility.
Select the AX.
If not already connected to the AX's wireless network, go ahead and switch to it when prompted.
AirPort Utility > Select the AX > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless
Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
Network Name: <type in the network name/SSID of the wireless network that you want to join or select it from the pop-up menu>
Wireless Security: None OR, if you are using security on your wireless network:
Wireless Security: <Select the appropriate level of security for the existing wireless network: WPA/WPA2 Personal | WPA2 Personal>
Password: <enter your wireless network security password>
Verify Password: <re-enter the same security password>
Click Update to write the new settings to the AX.

After downloading firmware for airport utility, airport express base station no longer registers with airport utility on my Mac. Now the base station is blinking amber with no info of what is causing all this to happen. Any suggestions?

After downloading firmware for airport utility last night, airport express base station was deleted from airport utility and only Time Capsule remains. When I plug in the base station, an amber light blinks without being able to verify the cause. Any suggestions to remedy this problem?

There are only a couple of things you can do to resuscitate a nonresponsive Express:
"Hard reset":
Press and hold the reset button with a pen or pencil until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.
If that does not work,
"Factory defaults reset":
Unplug the Express from power.
Press and hold the reset button with a pen or pencil, then plug the Express back in while continuing to hold the button until you see the light (LED) flash rapidly. This should happen after a few seconds.
Release the button.
In either case you will have to reconfigure the Express as a new device. A moment or two after it has been reset, the LED should be blinking slowly. It must then appear in your Wi-Fi menu like this:
Earlier versions of OS X will report it as "Apple Network nnnnnn".
In either case, select it, and then launch AirPort Utility.
If it does no appear in your Wi-Fi menu after it has been reset using one of the two techniques above, it is defective. Other than attempting another reset, there is nothing you can do.

Airport Utility/Airport Admin Utility

Dear all!
I bought an Airport Express last week and was able to configure it via Airport Utility. Now I wanted to change the settings but I´m not able to enter the Menue bar from Airport Utility. I can go threw the assistant and manual configuration but most of the other items are shown grey and I cannot click on them (i.e. to check security settings or add clients).
Please let me add one more related question: Is Airport Admin Utility just the old name for Airport Utility or do I need it in addition to set some changes?
Thanks in advance for your feedback and thoughts
kind regards
Klaus

Now I wanted to change the settings but I´m not able to enter the Menue bar from Airport Utility.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Could you describe this a little more?
Please let me add one more related question: Is Airport Admin Utility just the old name for Airport Utility or do I need it in addition to set some changes?
AirPort Admin Utility has been replaced by the newer, better AirPort Utility. You don't need AirPort Admin Utility if you have AirPort Utility.

Settings for Airport Utility / Airport Express

I have an Airport Express. The idea behind it is, I want to be able to take it to any hotel or location that ONLY has wired internet, and create a WiFi hotspot for my iPad.
Right now I have it set up working on my home network, but I want to make sure the settings are correct so that I could...say...take it to the Ramada Inn that only (in this example) has wired ethernet internet and plug it in, and turn the connection into a WiFi network.
What settings do I need to put in specifically for that purpose?
I'm going to Germany and I want to make sure it works before I leave.

Impossible to say for certain. The same settings used with your existing internet service provider and modem may work, or different settings may be required. An Airport Express can save 5 different wi-fi network settings which can be named for each network.
I don't travel anymore, but when I did I took my Apple PowerBook at the time with me along with my Airport Express to create a new wireless network with my AE if needed for a hotel's modem available in my room. This can't be done with an iPad.

Airport Extreme 6th generation and Time Warner, Arris modem - no internet on mac

After installing a new Time Warner Arris modem we have encountered the following issues:
Light is green on the airport and everything appears normal
Wifi only works on iPhones, roku, and windows laptops.
Ethernet from airport extreme is also working (xbox one works fine).
Wifi internet does NOT work on Mac computers (we have two in the house both running Yosemite). The light on the airport is green and the macs can connect to wifi but cannot connect to the internet (DNS issue?).
The wifi on my mac yosemite laptop does work on my office wireless and anywhere else but home.
Backstory:
So a few months ago I purchased a brand new 6th generation Airport Extreme 802.11ac. It worked fine with our old generic Time Warner cable modem until we forced to upgrade to a new Arris modem/router combination this weekend to upgrade our internet speeds (I don't recall the model I can get this later). We told TWC that we did not need a router and would prefer to use the Apple router but they said it would work just as before by just plugging it into the ethernet port.
Initially we had network errors and I had to change from NAT to Bridge mode on the airport extreme and this worked for about a day. The next morning I could only get internet and wifi on my iPhone or a windows machine elsewhere in the house.
What I tried (none of these worked):
resetting the router and modem worked briefly but the problem repeated itself a few hours later or after connecting to a different wireless network.
deleting network config files (http://osxdaily.com/2014/10/25/fix-wi-fi-problems-os-x-yosemite/).
deleting the wireless network from saved networks and connecting again.
Again this is a problem with mac laptops ONLY. I have no machines running an older version of OS X so I can't test that easily (I can borrow one from a friend to rule that out). We have 2 Mac computers both running yosemite and both have the same problem. Every other wireless device in the house works like a charm. Any ideas?

(using a White, new Surfboard 6141 and Time Warner as provider)
This is a simple cable modem, that will deliver only one IP address to the AirPort Extreme.
My apple extreme in set in Bridge,(by default it is a 2007 model. Has never been a problem when I used Verizon.
Bridge Mode is not the correct setting for the AirPort Extreme. It needs to be in a Router Mode of DHCP and NAT.
Bridge Mode would have been the correct setting with a Verizon modem/router......but the SB6141 is not a router....it is a simple modem.
You can try to make the settings change to see if that will work, but in most cases when you are making a modem change on a network, it is recommended to first reset the AirPort Extreme back to factory default settings (to wipe older and possibly conflicting settings), and then configure the AirPort to work with the new modem.

I moved to new house where I have wifi base station I made extension via TP-link power line adapter and connect my Airport utility 6.3.2, but I don't now how to set up as a second network with one IP address?Could you help me please?

+You may have already done this, but do you have the first AirPort Express configured to "Allow this network to be extended"?+
Could not find that setting anywhere.
It's in AirPort Utility, AirPort panel, Wireless tab.
When I'm within the range of the base station I connect normally, but further away the connection drops despite the fact that the other Airport is very close and light is green. Interestingly, my PB Pro has signal almost everywhere in the house, but my iPhone and Mac Mini don't. Most likely just a hardware difference?
In AirPort Utility with the second Express, in the AirPort panel, Wireless tab, have you checked "Allow wireless clients"?
The second AP does show an IP address: 10.0.1.3.
With a "Configure IPv4" setting of "Using DHCP", that suggests that the second Express really is connecting to the first Express. In that case I have no other explanation of your your problem.

I am unable to view ATV settings from iMac using AirPort utility

I am unable to view ATV settings from iMac using AirPort utility. Having problems with ATV quitting Airplay since recently updating.

I was interested to know if I could configure, or at least view the settings of my ATV from a Mac computer. This is because I have it connected to a projector rather than a HD TV and so it is not always convenient to view settings directly from the ATV display.
Anyway I tried finding it using Airport Utility and it does not show up (Mavericks running Airport Utility 6.3.2 on one iMac and Snow Leopard running 5.6.1 on another).
When I click on File>Connect Other it asks for an IP address and password. I doubt if knowing these would allow me to connect.
The ability view settings and configure ATV from Airport Utility would be a useful feature. We should suggest this to Apple via feedback:

Base Station Update 2007-001: AirPort Utility - where?

I am confused (is this a surprise?):
The recent "AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001" (see link below) includes general fixes and compatibility updates for the following applications, and I quote:
- AirPort Utility
- AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow Base Stations.
I do have AirPort Admin Utility 4.2. So I download the update, but it tells me:
"You CANNOT install AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001 on this volume.
This update requires AirPort Utility 5/0 to be installed."
Pardon? I do have AirPort Admin Utility 4.2.
* Where can I get AirPort Utility in order to update AirPort Admin Utility?
Sure, if I buy a new square base station, I'll get AirPort Utility on a CD. But how to apply the fixes to my good old white spaceship and update AirPort Admin Utility? Looking for clarification. Thanks.
Update: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/airportbasestati onupdate2007001formac.html

The old "Airport Admin Utility" 4.2.3 gets bumped to 4.2.5 and the name is changed to "AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow" since it is the only one still supporting the older models.
The bump from 4.2.3 to 4.2.5 must have fixed compatibility problems between the graphite/snow and "AirPort Admin Utility". If not, then owners of those base stations are going to experience problems.
Both Utilities can configure older Extreme and Express Base Stations.
It seems odd that one would be named specifically "...for Graphite and Snow"...

HT4259 Airport Utility 6.1 does note show "extend wireless network" option. How do I find the feature

I have an airport extreme and the utility is 6.1. I also have an airport express. I'd like to use the airport express to extend the WiFi. The "extend the wireless network" option does not show up in the Airport Utility 6.1. How do I go about finding that option? Is it something that doesn't need to be checked in Airport Utility 6.1?

I'm having the same issuse, the only work around I have found is by using an older version of airport utility

Airport Utility Manual?

Hi,
I am using Airport Utility to manage my Time Capsule (airport extreme) and I am wondering if there is a manual for Airport Utility?
First off - I would like to "password protect" access to my Time Capsule. Basically - any of the clients on my network can login to the Time Capsule and change the configuration....how do I create a password?????
Secondly - There are many Airport Utility screens that provide information and I am not sure what the information means? When I look at my wireless clients they all have "signal", "noise" and "rate" and I am not sure how to interpret this information. There are other screens that I also cannot interpret.
So...is there a manual for this utility?
And...can I password protect my time capsule?
Thanks

There are a number of helpful AirPort guides. Two that I would recommend are:
Apple AirPort Networks
Take Control of Your 802.11n AirPort Network
To directly answer your question about preventing access to the base station administration from network guests, you can set a Base Station password. Only users, that know this password, will be able to administer the base station.
You can set this using the AirPort Utility: AirPort Utility > Select the Time Capsule > Manual Setup > AirPort > Time Capsule tab > Time Capsule Password

Where can I find an ipod nano 6th generation

I would like to know where can I get the ipod nano 6th generation?, I live in Toulouse, France

Do a Google search, Amazon search and search Apple's own refurbish website.

XBOX ONE. I have the xbox one and the airport time capsule and cant connect to most xbox live games and zero parties. I have 0 experience in all this but somehow was able to change NAT to open but still wont connect. HELLLPPPP

Okay folks, I need your help out there.
So the nerdy side of me went and picked up the XBOX ONE on release day. Its awesome by the way, BUT..... I cant seem to connect to most xbox live games and absolutely ZERO parties. At first I just thought it was something to do with the xbox itself and would eventually fix itself, but i was wrong. After looking into it on microsoft, i found out that it had to do with my NAT settings on the airport itself. I guess apple and xbox are not compatiable for xbox live and it makes it difficult to have an open NAT setting and is a huge PAIN.
I was able to pinpoint one that the airport time capsule was blocking the IPV6 something or another. Anyways, I unblocked that, and reset the modem and time capsule and jumped on the xbox and now have open NAT settings but still cant connect to multi-player.
Upon further searching, i was told to uncheck the UPNP on my time capsule as well, but have no idea how to find that.
I know it seems confusing, but thats the best i can describe it.
tthanks all

Be a long long time before I see an Xbox One.. but whoever told you to uncheck the upnp in the TC.. tell them their dreamin' .. upnp is not support by Apple in any computer or router, never has been.. Apple deliberately wrote their own version called NAT-PMP to do the same thing.. dynamically open ports at the request of an application or client computer.
So there is nothing like that to uncheck.. and as a matter of interest.. there no box to check or uncheck for NAT-PMP either.. since apple do not believe in end user adjustment of settings.. they simply do not exist.
You will have to manually forward all ports required by the Xbox via the TC. For multi-player games you probably need to open more ports than the standard to allow just xbox live. You will need to check the ports required and open them.
OR
Buy a standard vista UPNP compatible router.. and use that.. and simply put the TC in bridge in the network.
I have not seen posts yet about xbox one.. but there are plenty about xbox and ps3 and the fact that Apple really doesn't give a hoot about games consoles.
This is a good basic post for older xbox.
