AP Extreme (WiFi Access Point)... LAN... Web Proxy Server help.

Hello...
I need a little help configuring this Airport Extreme as a Wireless Access point, serving a bunch of iPads via the schools LAN connection for which traffic is routed through a Web Proxy Server. I've been told to set it up as a bridge as the PC LAN and Proxy are providing NAT but can't seem to crack it.
The WiFi side of things is up and running, we can all see and connect to the AP.
I'm told that it was working fine before the school break in the summer, then something was changed and the position of the AP altered.
The Web Proxy Server is normally accesses from the PC's via the following address... IP > 10.12.14.122 // PORT > 3128
I'm not certain where the Proxy settings need to go in the new 'simple' Airport Utility, can't see a place for Port at all?!?
(I've taken the AP home, tried it on my home network and it works fine, so we know its all OK and its down to config).
Here are some screen images of the settings as they are, that do not work.
(I was trying a few different settings hence the screens like Static/DHCP etc.)
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Daniel,
>>Now when I go on a client site my internet access on the host laptop is via a web proxy on a LAN connection.
"LAN connection" means physical NIC (Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller) ?
" web proxy " means adding a proxy server IP in IE ?
Bounding the NIC (Realtek PCIe ) to external virtual switch then connect all VMs to that external virtual switch ,still can not access ?

Proxy Setting for Multiple WiFi Access Points

I'm getting ready to roll out 30 iPads in a school setting. They are going to be on a cart that teachers will be able to check out for class use, but will be returned to the computer lab each evening. This creates a problem.
Throughout the building, we have several WiFi access points - next year we will have an access point in each classroom. And of course we connect through a proxy server so that the district can block various wbsites. As I am setting up my iPad to connect to each access point, I have to set the proxy server address for the access point; I would really like to be able to simply say "This is my proxy server address and port for EVERY WiFi access point in the building." and be done with it. I haven't been able to find a way to do this -- it looks like I have to configure each access point individually.
Am I just missing something (I hope)?

I suspect you have the D-Link set up to make its network an entirely new subnet using NAT.
If you setup the D-Link as a bridge to the network created by the Extreme, things may work properly.
You may need to refer to the D-Link documentation to find out the proper way to do this.

IOS 4.2.1 breaks web-based authentication to wifi access points

Whenever I tried to access the *wifi access points* I use more often *whose authentication is web-based*, like the one at my public library or at my office, although I input my username and password correctly, I am always bounced back to the login form.
Before iOS 4.2.1 I know that there was a problem of this sort already, related to *some incompatibility between Safari's auto-fill features and the access points*, that could be solved by simply turning off auto-fill, and I did that. But know *it looks like the problem got to a new level of subtlety*.
Interestingly, *everything worked nicely while I was using the Gold Master version of iOS 4.2.0* that never made it to release, so the solution has to be found among the differences between 4.2.0 and 4.2.1, if you're an Apple engineer reading this.
Can you help? Any idea or trick to try that I didn't already? Thanks!

Hi Richard,
You mentioned that 'Apple put the AirPrint spec out there for all printer makers'. I've been looking around but I haven't found any spec. Where did you find it?
Do printer makers have to buy a license in order to be able to advertise that they've implemented the AirPrint protocol? Is there maybe an Apple review process in place?
TIA

Specific WiFi access point HTTP proxy always turning off?

Hello,
My corporate - issued iPhone 4S which is currently sporting 6.1.1 has a weird issue - the corporate WiFi access point HTTP proxy setting always defaults to Off after trying to set it up with a Auto setting and entering a URL to our company's PAC file. My colleagues do not have the same issue - they are able to setup HTTP Proxy to Auto and enter the URL to the PAC file. I tried this with other access points (non-corporate) and it works fine. Is this something specific to the WiFi profile pushed to my device? I've tried contacting our company's IT personnel in charge and they weren't able to give me an answer. Hoping someone here can. Thanks in advance!
Cheers

To remove access poit, go to settings>connectivity>settings>Destination>Internet>long hold access point and select delete.
For Gmail, don't use it, but if you remove/delete mailbox and then set it up again it should work fine, also heard that during set up if you reject terms and conditions and set up manually it works better ?

Wifi access point not allow to stream a video between two machnies in LAN

Does some one ever encountered problem like this?
I have a wifi accesspoint runs on my computer . And my computer is in a local area network(10.16.71.26). And I am streaming a video over rtp using JMF from another computer (10.16.71.27). This works fine when the wifi access point in my local machine is disabled. When it is enabled the video streaming not works.
I have tried with many forums but still didn't manage to find an answer. So please be kind enough to put some light on this problem or at least direct me to a place where I can find the answer. Hope at least some of u have faced a problem like this.

Can't HP Officejet pro 8100 do wifi access point?

Yesterday my HP Officejet pro 8100 arrived and I try to connect via wifi. I thinked that It need a infrastructure access point to print via wifi.
When I powered on the printer I osserved that It create an access point autonomously with SSID: HP-Setup-7A-Officejet Pro, with IPv4 address server, etc...
I was very happy and I printed a page with my smartphone samsung s4 connected directly with printer access point (not wifi direct but standard wifi).
Today no changed occurred but I can't use printer with its own access point, but only with an external wifi access point.
Someone can help me, please? It could be an hardware problem?
Thanks,
Luca
P.S. in web server I checked that "access point connectivity" (Punto di accesso wireless connettività in Italian) is checked.
This question was solved.

Hello lucait
To print via WiFi you need to have a wireless router setup. Once you have the wireless router setup correctly you will have a SSID and Wepkey that will enable you to add devices to your network. The network will allow all your devices to communicate not just with each other but with the internet. At the moment your printer was not put in a network so instead of broadcasting on a network it is broadcasting on it's own network called HP-Setup-7A-Officejet Pro which is only good for a short period of time to allow you to setup your wireless. I am going to assume you have a wireless network and you are just needing assistance getting the printer setup on that network.
To set your printer up on a network you will need to reset your network defaults so your printer begins to broadcast that HP-Setup-7A-Officejet Pro network again. You can do this buy following the steps on the HP Support document Resetting the Network Settings. Once you have done this you can begin to install the software that came with your printer on your computer. You want to set the printer up wirelessly when the option arrives. The software should configure your printers wireless for you and put it on the network. Once completed you should be able to access your printer from all your devices as long as they are on the network.
I hope this helps resolve your wireless issue. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Roaming between two WiFi access points fails

Hi...
I just bought a Hawking WiFi range extender...a device that acts like a second wireless access point for rooms that are far from your wireless router. It's also known as a repeater. It has the same SSID (network name) as the one set up by the router.
You are supposed to be able to move about the house and you will connect to whichever device has the higher signal strength, transparently, with no hiccups, like moving your cell phone from one cell antenna to another.
The setup works fine with my Dell laptop, but not with my MacBook Pro or my iPad. When I change "zones", the Network locks up. This is repeatable and consistent.
I've heard rumors about Apple product difficulties with this "WiFi roaming."
Can anyone help?
Thx
Steve

I've been using a roaming setup in my home for years. The company I work for has building wide WiFi roaming setup with multiple WiFi access points on each floor. At home and at work, I frequently move my MacBook between access points without loosing things like my VPN, Screen Sharing, File Sharing, ssh terminal sessions, etc....
But 3rd party networking hardware has not always been well tested against Apple products. Many times 3rd party networking vendors test against some version of Windows and then ship it. Sometimes the 3rd party vendor offers a firmware update that corrects issues with Apple products.
At home I have Apple Airport Extreme base stations for my roaming setup. At work, the company is using Cisco commercial WiFi access points.
A roaming setup needs to have all WiFi devices on the same network "Subnet". That means a 2nd WiFi base station cannot act as a router, but must be just a bridge on the existing router's subnet (generally that means it cannot be offering DHCP services nor NAT services).
The 2nd WiFi base station must have the same SSID (as you said you setup).
And it must have the same security password using the same encryption algorithm (WPA2 preferred from a security stand point). You did not mention this, but I'll assume you did this as well.

Canon 70D, Wifi access point with Android

I bought a Canon 70D this week and I cannot get the Wifi access point option to work with my Nexus 7 2013 or my Samsung Galaxy S3. I was able to connect my 70D to my Wifi network and see the device that way. But when on the road you won't always have access to a local LAN. When I try the access point mode both devices never see the 70D.
I rebooted both Android devices after installing the EOS app. I also get the camera in access point mode first and then launch the EOS app. I let the app sit for several minutes and never finds the 70D.
Any tips?

Hi gquiring!
Thanks for posting.
When you go through the setup process on the camera, are you selecting [Easy Connection] ot [Manual Connection]? If using [Manual Connection], try using the [Easy Connection] instead.
When prompted by the camera to connect to it with your smartphone, do you see the SSID of the camera show up in the list of networks you can connect to on your smartphone?

How can I turn mac mini into wifi access point for iPhone?

Hi,
I do not have a wifi router.
I want my iPhone to be able to use my broadband internet instead of the slow EDGE internet.
The simple solution would be to buy a wifi router whih would enable my iPhone to access the wifi home network.
*What if I could turn the mac mini into a wifi access point?* That would save me from the hassle of buying a wifi router.
Any idea how to do this??
Message was edited by: d00by666

I did this.
I think I am doing something wrong. I am doing something wrong in this setting *from ethernet to airport*.
see attached screenshot.
To start Internet sharing on a computer using Mac OS X:
1. Open System Preferences, click Sharing, and then click Internet.
2. Select how you would like to share your Internet connection, and then click Start. You
can choose to share your Internet connection with AirPort-enabled computers,
computers with built-in Ethernet, or both.
Note:
If your Internet connection and your local network use the same port (built-in
Ethernet, for example), contact your ISP before you turn on Internet sharing. In some
cases (if you use a cable modem, for example) you might unintentionally affect the
network settings of other ISP customers, and your ISP might terminate your service to
prevent you from disrupting its network.
3. If you want to share your Internet connection with computers using AirPort, click
AirPort Options to give your network a name and password.

A tech company just set up a wifi network in my house and does not use my existing TC; how do I get it in the network to serve as backup for my iMac? (I don't need it as a wifi access point anymore)

a tech company just set up a wifi network in my house and does not use my existing TC; how do I get it in the network to serve as backup for my iMac? (I don't need it as a wifi access point anymore) thanks

Just bridge the TC and plug it by ethernet into the main router.
Bridge in v5 airport utility.
In v6 it is under network.. change it from DHCP and NAT to Off bridge mode.
Turn off the wireless.

I already have a WiFi access point. Can I still use a time capsule?

I already have a WiFi access point. Reading about the Time Capsule, it appears that it is also an access point. If so, ca I still use it in conjuction with my existing WiFi?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Of course. With the Time Capsule, you can still use the network of your old router or you can use the network of the Time Capsule (I recommend you to use the network of the Time Capsule unless your router is much better). Note that the Time Capsule is a router with a hard drive inside, so it's normal that you can use it as a router

How to delete wifi access point on E7 - mails won'...

I have E7 with symbian anna. A while ago I had to restart my home wifi (due to storm) and during that process a new wifi access point (wlan(01) was created on my phone. After that - as far as I have now understood - my phone stopped syncronising gmails altogether. Also in my provider's network (outside wifi, elisa). In order for my phone to sync emails, i need to reboot it (or just turn it off and on, no need to get the three vibrations when turning off).
Question 1) How do I delete this unncecssary wifi access point on E7? I was able to do it easily on my N900 but not on this E7.
Question 2) Is it likely that the reason my phone stopped syncin gmails is related to this wifi issue? Pressing send & receive won't help, either, nothing happens. I have had this E7 for 1.5 months now, Symbian Anna I've had for 10 days and this problem started 5 days ago. Before that the mails flew in very nicely.

To remove access poit, go to settings>connectivity>settings>Destination>Internet>long hold access point and select delete.
For Gmail, don't use it, but if you remove/delete mailbox and then set it up again it should work fine, also heard that during set up if you reject terms and conditions and set up manually it works better ?

Showing duplicate wifi access point in N82

Hi,
i have a weird issue with my N82 wifi, hopefully i can explain it correctly..
my problem is when i connect to a new wifi, it will always shown 2 access point in the wifi list.. what's weird is that the duplicate wifi access point name is the last wifi point i connected... and if i remove one of the access point from the list, both will be gone..
so for example in steps:
1) i first connect to 'ABC'
2) i remove 'ABC'
3) i connect to 'CDE'
result is in access point list, it will show
'ABC'
'CDE'
if i selecet 'ABC', it's actually connects to 'CDE'.. and if i delete either one of them, both will be gone.
4) i delete 'CDE' (both are now gone)
5) i connect to 'CDE' again
the result is it will shown:
'CDE'
'CDE (1)'
again, if i delete either one of them, both will be gone.
so any idea? WIFI still works, but a bit agnoring..
thanks in advance

If I understand the situation, with an Ethernet connection for the Airport the wifi component is free to act as an access point. But one Airport device cannot act as a wifi receiver and as an an access point.
That is correct. A single Express in this situation would act as a Wi-Fi "receiver," but will only provide an active Ethernet connection for wired clients. You will need a second one to create the wireless network.
Again, this is because you typically won't have administrator access to the RV park's wireless router AND, most likely if you did, it wouldn't be another Apple router. The option I provided should get you around both of those facts ... and should work at other locations with the same wireless setup.
