AirPort Utility does not see AirPort in G5 but see it in PB G4

Ich cannot lease a IP from AirPort Snow with my G5. Manual setting with IP works good but DHCG gives me a 169.13. IP
everything works good with my PB G4 with a setting importiert from G5 before this trouble appears

Sorry I had so many change in Hardware I have an AirPort Extreme Base and AirPort Utility works fine with the PowerBook G4. When you open Network Preferences and click advanced you will see TCP/IP
if you open it you see configure IPv4 you should Using DHCP.

HT1998 My iPAD can use the internet through my airport extreme, but the airport utility does not see it so I can't create a guest password. What am I doing wrong?

My iPAD can use the internet through my Airport Extreme, but the Airport Utility does not see the device so I can't set a guest password.

If your Mac is using the Lion operating system with recent updates, it will be necessary to download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility 5.6
Select the AirPort Extreme and click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab just below the row of icons
Click the Wireless Network Options button
Remove the check mark next to Create a closed network
Click Done, then click Update to save the new settings and allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart

The airport utility does not find my Airport Extreme. I tried to reset the base, but I can`t make it. What can i do?

The airport utility does not find my Airport Extreme. I tried to reset the base, but I can`t make it. What can i do?

Please perform a Factory Default Reset exactly as follows:
Pull the power plug from the back of the AirPort Extreme (AEBS)
Wait a minute
Hold in the reset button first and continue to hold it in for at least 7-8 more seconds while you simultaneously plug the power back in to the AEBS
Release the reset button after the 7-8 second hold period
Allow 30-45 seconds for the AEBS to restart
Temporarily, connect a spare Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AEBS
Open AirPort Utility to see if can now see the AEBS

Windows 7 airport utility does not recognize my airport extreme

My iphone connects to my airport extreme and the airport utility sees it. So does my ipad and my friends laptop.
When I use wifi or wired connection (to lan port) from Windows 7 laptop to my airport extreme. The airport utility does not "see the extreme.
I've uninstalled/reinstalled the following:
- bonjour
- airport utility
- itunes.
I've wasted 3 hours on this.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.....

UPDATE
* I located the IP address and admin password of the airport extreme and was able to log into to the (File / configure other) airport extreme.
I believe it's a W7 bonjour issue.
As you can see in my attachments, Bonjour is installed however msconfig running services show it as stopped. I can't get it to start.
** How can I force bonjour to start? **
Here are my replies to your recommended steps:
What version extreme are you talking about? Actual model A1xxx from the base is a big help.
- I forgot to check this
Step 1.. Ping.. Ping is your most important tool to find things on a network.
Open a command window and type ping 10.0.1.1 (or whatever is the current IP of the extreme).
- Yes, I can ping it.
Please turn off all firewalls.
- Yes, firewall is off
Make sure the win7 is not in homegroup.
- done.
Make sure win7 is set to home.. not work or public for location of the network.
- done.
Step 2. .. This assumes you now have ping response.
In whatever airport utility you like, reset the extreme to use all SMB names.
- WHERE do I make these changes?

Airport utility does not support base station? Help!

I cannot get base station light to turn green. Blinking amber. I upgraded to a new Verizon modem and since then the base station does not work. What can I do?

Make sure the new Verizon Modem is not also a WiFi Router, if it is then that may be your issue. If it is indeed just a Modem then your Ethernet Connection should work and your base station should be working. You said "Airport Utility does not support base station". Don't know what you meant by that. Do you have an Airport Extreme, Airport Express or a Airport TC as a Base Station? If yes, you should be able to set up your Network via Airport Utility. If the Verizon Modem is only a Modem then unplug the power from your Airport Base Station, then unplug the Power from your Verizon Modem for at least 1-minute. Plug the Modem back in and give it a moment or so, then make sure you do have an Ethernet cable going from your Verizon provided Modem to your WAN port on your Airport Base Station. Now power up your Airport Base Station and go to your Airport Utility. Find the Base Station and click on Edit... Make sure your Network Name is correct, your Password is Correct, your Security method is correct (example: WPA2 Personal). If all correct see if your blinking Amber light is now Solid Green.

My airport utility does not find my airport express device

My airport utility does not find my airport express device

In order for the AirPort Utility on your iOS device to find the Express, both need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. By default, the Express will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. Can you iOS device find this network?

Airport utility will not detect airport express, there is no green light on airlport express solid yellow then just a momentary green

I had airport express set up for a wireless network in a hotel room. Forgot password when I got home and reset but now the yellow light stays on with only a momentary green then back to solid yellow. Any ideas. Airport utility does not see it.

Unfortunately, this type of symptom is usually a signal that there is an internal electrical problem with the Express.
Hopefully, it is simply locked up and can be reset.
Try a Factory Default Reset as follows:
Power down the AirPort Express
Leave it off at least 10 minutes, longer will not hurt
Hold in the reset button and keep holding it another 10-12 seconds while you plug the Express back in to power
Release the reset button
Allow 40-45 seconds for the Express to restart.
If things are back to normal, you will see a slow blinking amber light after 40-45 seconds.
If you continue to see the solid amber with short green flash after a few reset tries, I am afraid that the device has failed and will need to be replaced.

Airport Utility does not see base station

Hello,
I just got an Airport Extreme. I am able to connect to it from mac and pc running vista but I am not able to see the base station from the airport utility on the windows platform. I can see it from the mac. Any ideas why - am I missing something on the windows platform.
Thanks
Praveen

Thanks for your answers. I found this answer in a different thread. Once I unchecked CheckPoint VPN software - the base stations now show up in Airport Utility.

Airport Utility does not see Airport Extreme Base Station

Purchased Airport Extreme yesterday at Apple Store to replace old Netgear Router. Wanted wireless network to work with 2 identical HP Laptops running XP with SP3 and 2 iPod touches, and possible future purchases of iPad 2 and Apple TV. Installed Airport Utility software from CD on Dell Studio running Windows 7. Connected Airport Extreme to cable modem and Dell Studio. Ran Airport Utility software to configure Base Station but it did not recognize the Base Station. Base Station had blinking amber light. Did have internet connectivity on Dell Studio, and wireless internet connectivity on 2 iPod touches, and on one HP Laptop. No wireless internet on other HP Laptop. But wireless internet connection was unsecured and Airport Utility did not see Airport Extreme so could not configure it to make it secure. Contacted Apple Customer support. After 30-40 minutes of attempting several different possible fixes only able to use Airport Utility to configure Airport Extreme remotely, wirelessly, from one HP Laptop, not the Dell Studio that is directly connected to the base station. Now that the base station is configured the network is secure. However, second HP Laptop cannot connect to primary wireless network. I created password protected "Guest" network using Airport Utility, and laptop is able to connect to this Guest network. From reviewing forums am now able to configure Airport Extreme with Airport Utility by using "Configure other" on Dell computer. But utility cannot find device by scanning. Would like to find way to (1) have Airport Utility on Windows 7 Dell see Airport Extreme by scanning and not using "configure other," and (2) have 2nd HP Laptop connect to primary network and not "guest' network. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Bob - Thanks so much for your quick reply. I followed your suggestions and, to go into perhaps unnecessary detail, I'll write what I did. I completely disconnected the Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS) from my computer. I disabled Windows Firewall, uninstalled my anti-virus program, and uninstalled Airport Utility and Bonjour, recycled by cable modem (took out the battery and unplugged it for about 20 seconds), then restarted my computer. After the computer booted up, I verified that windows firewall was disabled, reinstalled Airport Utility and Bonjour, then reconnected the cable connecting the AEBS to the computer (to one of the three ethernet ports, and I tried each of them in case one was faulty) but not to the cable modem as my firewall was disabled and had no anti-virus software. I also reconnected the AEBS power chord. I opened the newly reinstalled Airport Utility software and it did not find the base station. Only when I used "configure other" was I able to access the AEBS. I recycled the modem again, but that did not help. I turned on the firewall, installed anti-virus software, connected the AEBS to the modem, the light turned green, and I was able to access the internet on the primary computer and the wireless network gave me internet access on my laptops. But I was still not able to have my main computer, the one directly connected to the AEBS able to see it, and configure it, without utilizing "configure other."
Also, any idea why one of my laptops can only access the "guest" network? When it attempts to connect to the primary network it will stay on "acquiring network address" for what seems a few minutes, then switch to the "guest" network and connect immediately.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HT3728 airport utility does not see my time capsule

I got a Time Capsule for Christmas, have hooked it up, turned it on, then the Airport Utility. The airport utility has not found it - I have reset it using the button on the back several times and still nothing. I have also restarted my computer, which is a new macbook pro, but nothing.
Advice please! I am new to Mac and am quite frustrated, considering returning the Time Capsule, if I can ...

That was not helpful of Apple at all, as this is a much trickier setup..
I have just posted details in another thread. Longish post I am not sure how to reference a particular post.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3528704?tstart=0
Please follow those instructions to load 5.6 airport utility.. as you will find it much better.
In your case you will need to do the same thing but on the airport setup.. which is another layer in to ethernet.
But the idea is the same.. do not use automatic setup of the wireless IP settings.. you need to do it manually but it is relatively easy. Again you need to make sure your ISP is not using a 10.x.x.x address as many do.. the cheap skates are saving IP addresses. If they do that you will need to use manual setup of the TC as well.
You will still want to do the setup of the TC by ethernet.. but can use wireless once it is done.
Exactly as in the other thread, go to airport in network preference and go to the airport setup, then fix the IP address as I have shown.
If you need more info try to ask specific questions .. screenshots also help.

Airport Setup Utility does not find Airport Express

I have an airport extreme connect to my iMac and today installed an airport express in another room so I can use a printer and speakers for piping iTunes to the other room.
I connected my printer to the Airport Express and plugged the airport express into the socket to power it up. After initially showing a green light, then solid yellow, the airport express showed a blinking yellow light. The airport express is only located 10 feet from my airport extreme base station.
The Airport Setup Utility does not find an extpress in the area and I have even done a hard restart on the express to see if this fixes the problem.
Am I missing anything with the configuration of the airport express? Thanks for your help.

Ahh, I have the same problem... my airport keeps stopping and starting. I then tried using the setup utility with with express and it cannot find it. I tried rescanning, but nothing.

Utility does not recognize airport express

my wifi works normally but the utility is unable to recognize the airport express

I do not see a menu in the airport utility, but there is a tool bar.
The menus.....like File, Window, Edit, Help, etc are all located where menus are normally located.....at the very top of the computer screen. It sounds like you are looking at the AirPort Utility window in the middle of the screen.
Did you power off the restart both the PC and the AirPort Express? If you have done this, and the AirPort Express does not appear when you open AirPort Utility, then more troubleshooting will be required.
If AirPort Utility on your PC is communicating with the AirPort Express, the window in the center of the screen will look similar to this when AirPort Utility is first opened, except that you will see a listing for the AirPort Express:

Allow a full minute for the AirPort Extreme to restart again
On the iPhone home screen, tap Settings
Tap WiFi
Look for the listing of Setup A New Base Station

The example below shows an AirPort Express. You will see AirPort Extreme
When you tap on AirPort Extreme, that will get the setup wizard running. Follow the prompts.

ATT hooked up new u-verse router, now time capsule does not work and airport utility does not see it ?

ATT hooked up the new U-verse router replacing the older 2wire router. Old 2wire router worked fine with Airport +Time Capsule. Now only the amber light flashes. When I try to reconnect with Time Machine it does not find the Time Capsule nor does the airport utility find the Time Capsule. Any help?

Okay, the 3801HGV also doesn't bridge - but there is a workaround. Info on the workaround comes from 'SomeJoe7777' at this link:
http://forums.att.com/t5/Residential-Gateway/U-verse-for-BUSINESS-2Wire-3600HGV- bridge-mode-or-another-AT-amp/td-p/2707013
As for connecting to your TC: the 3801HGV uses a default IP address of 192.168.1.254. It passes out IP addresses to your networked devices, and all of those IP addresses will be 192.168.1.something. The TC uses a default IP address of 10.0.1.1. As your primary router, if the TC's defaults weren't changed, the TC would be handing out addresses to your networked devices that are 10.0.1.something.
If your computer has an IP address of 192.168.1.something, it won't be able to see the TC if the TC's address is 10.0.1.1 (or anything else that's not 192.168.1.something). Hopefully that makes sense!
Go into System Preferences on your Mac, and click the Network icon. Click on Ethernet on the left side, and you'll be able to see what IP address your Mac has been given. My guess is that it has a 192.168.1.something address from the 3801HGV.
If I'm right about the 192.168.1.x address, and that your TC is running with 10.0.1.x addresses, then that's why your Mac can't see your TC. In this case, you need to change the Mac's Ethernet setup to manually set your Mac to a 10.0.1.x address for the TC to see. To do this, go to System Preferences, then Network, then click Ethernet on the left side.
Set the Configure IPv4 dropdown to 'Manually', and it will open up some places for you to fill in information:
IP Address: 10.0.1.15 (or a similar number that won't conflict with your TC's address, but starts with 10.0.1)
Subnet Mask: put in 255.255.255.0
Router: 10.0.1.1 (I'm assuming here that your TC was running with the default IP address; if it was something different, then set Router to whatever IP address your TC was using.)
Then, click the Apply button to make your changes active.
Now, since your Mac's IP address will be in the right "subnet" for your TC, they should be able to see each other. (It's kind of like having to live on the same block as someone to be able to talk with them. In general, if your computers don't have similar addresses, they can't talk to each other. Of course that's simplified greatly, but you probably get the idea...)
Once you've got the IP addresses matched up, you should be able to see your TC. At that point, you can update the TC to work with the 3801HGV. I recommend setting it to bridge mode, but if you can follow SomeJoe7777's advice, go for it!

Connected to Airport WiFi Net but Airport Utility does not "see" the AE(n)

Have both the Airport Extreme (g) and (n). Have no problems with the AE(g) which I am using now, but the AE(n) somehow does not appear in the "Airport Utility".
I see the new AE(n) in the Airport Finder selection tool and I connect to the AE(n) network WiFi. The connection is successful and I get all of the vertical black semi-circles showing connection. Then I open Airport Utility and attempt to scan to see the AE(n) and it does not appear.
I've tried to hard reset the AE(n) and configure using Ethernet. The AE(n), appears in Airport Utility when attached by Ethernet. Once configured. I disconnet the Ethernet cable and connect to the new WiFi network but the Amber light flashes, the AE(n) does not connect successfully to the DSL modem and my iMac (Core Duo) Airport Utility program fails to "see" the new base station. I am going nuts. Pls help.
I did read through other problems and the troubleshooting section and did not come accross this same problem.

Spent 75 minutes on the phone with Apple support. At the end of the day learned a few things.
1) Hold down control key to get additonal wireless config options including one which allows 802.11b/g only
2) Using "Other" as a network option in the Internet Connect application solves the problem that only "WPA" password is allowed while I have configured my AE to WEP. You need to type in the AE network name but you are allowed to choose the correct password schema
3) Using "Network Utility" and pinging 10.0.1.1 found out that I had 90% packet loss and that my new AE(n) is most likely defective and in need of replacement...
After all that am back to using my AE(g).

Airport Utility does not see devices

Ok... this started because i noticed that iTunes was not seeing my remote speakers connected to the airport express... so i start looking into it. Mind you, the whole time i am connected to my wireless network. I have an airport extreme that is connected to the cable modem and an airport express on the other side of the apartment that has the speakers connected to it. My wife's laptop sees both devices, as does the iMac... when i run airport utility on both, no problems. However, when i run it on my MacBook Pro... nothing, i rescan and rescan.... and nothing.
Any ideas on what i should be looking at?

Me too- but I have a Leopard G5 tower that can still see the Airport Express (g) and I have a Tiger MacBook that can also see it. Both can see it via the utility and via iTunes. But my Leopard MacBook Pro cannot see it for either service, though my connection still works. When I restart the Airport, I can briefly see it in the Utility, but it never reads the config and just spins forever. I've reinstalled the utility, but no dice.

AirPort Utility does not see AirPort in G5 but see it in PB G4
