Automatically Turning the Aiport on and off

Is their anyway to turn the airport on and off remotely or prevent it from accessing the internet? i.e. your not having to physically unplug it to prevent it from going online?
I am curious if I can remotely (via my MBP) disable the connection to the internet at certain times?

1. I'm not sure how "remote" you had in mind but yes - it is possible to configure your Base Station from anywhere on the internet as long as you (a)have enabled the option to configure the base station via its WAN port and (b) you know the base station's public IP address.
2. You can limit client connections to the base station by enabling MAC address based access control, and either adding or removing the MAC address of wireless clients
3. You can not limit cabled client connections. If a computer is cabled to the Base Station, that computer will have access to the internet as long as the Base Station is powered.

    Last night my iphone screen all of a sudden was solid blue and now it is black. I tried turning it on and off.  Still nothing appeared on the screen.  I put it on the charger and this morning it is totally black.  However, when I hit the on and off button, I did hear the text message signal go off. When I turned the volume on and off a big white bell flashed.  In the last week, there were some other display problems such as the screen blowing up large. The only way to fix it was to turn off the phone and then turn it back on. 
    What does all of this mean? It seems like I've had these problems since the iphone 4 upgrade.

    just do reset, press home button and power butoon for a while untill you can see apple
    gud luck

  • Is there a way to turn the camera on and off remotely?

    I have at least one Canon remote that I've used with my 7D's. Unfortunately, I don't have it with me, because today's shoot doesn't require it. So I can't give you the model number. (Models come and go anyway.) It has a shutter button that you can press halfway to activate auto-focussing, just like the button on the camera. But you do have to make sure that the camera has an IR sensor. On a Canon DSLR, look for it where the fingers of your right hand would cover it up; I think that's intentional, so that a spurious IR beam won't fire the shutter while you're taking hand-held shots. Also, check that the camera and the remote are compatible, e.g. that they agree on the frequencies of light that are to be used.

    Hi. My wifi keeps disconnecting. I keep turning the wifi on and off in settings but will disconnect again after a minute or so. I use an ipad2 and my ios is updated. How to troubleshoot? - kay peralta

    Is this happening with one particular network or with all?  Make sure iOS is updated on the device.
    Try this:
    Reboot ipad by pressing and holding both the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go. Then try to connect to network.
    Go to settings, Toggle airplane mode on/off. Make sure bluetooth is off. Turn on wif (airplane mode off). Try to connect.
    Reset Network Settings
    Go to settings/general/reset/reset network settings. Then try to connect to network.
    If its your home router, then reboot router by unplugging for 5-10min. (do this while you're resetting network settings).
    If problem persists, then check for firmware updates on your router.(you check router manufacturer support website for downloads and instructions).

    I updated my 4S phone to IOS 7.1.2 and lost my wi-fi.   The wi-fi is on, but can't find ANY networks.   I have been through all the steps, from turning the phone on and off, resetting the network settings, resetting the whole phone, redownloading 7.1.2 and lastly going to the Apple store for help.   They tried all the exact same steps I did, took the phone apart and looked at and said it is in "pristine" condition.   They have no idea why it isn't working, but they could offer to sell me another phone.    This is extremely annoying!    They claim it has nothing to do with the update to 7.1.2, but that is when I lost the wi-fi, so it has to be related!

    My 4s i-phone which is 2 years old cannot find any wi-fi networks not even my home network... I had the same problem two months ago but i turned off the i-phone for 8 hours and then it was okay... Now it happened again.... I tried to restart the modem but whilst my laptop is connected regularly, my phone still cannot find any wi-fi networks... I restart the i-phone, i reset it, i chose reset network settings, reset all settings, i turned it off for a whole day in case it was overloaded, i turned on the airplane mode and turned it off again, i put it into the freezer for 10 minutes within a zipped bag but 3 days now and i still cannot be connected to my home wifi... I went to the technician today and he told me that it means that wi-fi is broken and that i need to change it with a charge of 70 euro but i have to give my phone for 10 working days so as to be fixed... I am so frustrated and i don't know if i want to give 70 euro for wifi since i don't know if it would make the same problems again...

    FIrst try a soft reset by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears then let go & let the iPad boot up normally. 
    If that doesn't help then to make sure you have a strong internet connection.
    Try resetting Network Settings
    Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings,
    You won't lose any data but will have to log back into your wifi networks.
    Once logged back in and when the pop-up appears, try entering your password again.

  • TS1702 Can anyone help? For no reason, I cannot open any of my apps.  I can open everything else, just not apps.  I have turned the ipad on and off several times, this doesn't work.  Does anyone know what to do and why this has happened?

    Hello, for some strange reason I cannot open any of the apps I have.  I have tried turning the ipad on and off and this doesn't work.  I can open everything else (videos, camera, etc) just no apps.  Can anyone help please?

    If it's the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
    If it's all apps including Apple's then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    My iPhone 5 suddenly stopped opening the Apple Mail app.  It had worked flawlessly for years, but just stopped.  It worked on my iPad, and of course on the computer.  What's going on, and how do I fix it?  I've turned the phone on and off several times, soft reset several times.  There was no change in any settings when this happened, nor any new apps were added.  Thank you for any help you can give.

    Does it not work either way? Sending and receiving? Did you check the settings and make sure that nothing has changed? If you can receive email, but not send it, check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

    Unless it has recently changed you can only watch rentals on the device or mac you rent them on.

  • Is there an App for turning the power on and off with the Iphone 5 as my button has stopped working

    Is there an App for turning the power on and off with the Iphone 5 as my button has stopped working

    No.  You'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation and replacement.  If you're still within the warranty period and a hardware defect is identified, the phone will be replaced without charge.

  • TS1398 Turn the wifi on and off? I think I have a serious problem here. I cannot even press the on and off because its not available (the color is grey not black). I think this is why Apple is constantly losing a buyer and user. Slow action.

    What is the problem here Apple? Please hear us. I turned on my Wifi and then turned it off after use. After that I noticed something strange because I cannot turn on the wifi button anymore. I have restarted the phone several times, and turn it on after 10 mins, sometimes 30 min - 1 Hr. but then again its not working. I encountered this problem after updating my iOS to 6.1.2! Please hear us. If you wanted to penetrate to the market please love your consumers. Your products are great but your actions to their(US, CONSUMERS)  problems in terms of bugs fixes and battery life is so slow. Why is that?

  • Airport Disk: Turning the drive on and off

    Here is the "problem": I turn the hard drive connected to the AEBS off at night (it worked all day). When I restart my Macbook, I turn on the drive. Every time this happens the AEBS blinks amber. Fortunately, I have found a solution. Leave the usb disk on and unplug and re-plugin the AEBS. Voila, the computer sees the drive (don't get me started on the XP issues). Of course, such a fix reminds me of the Windows hardware I have slowly been replacing.
    And yes, I have Airport Disk Utility installed and ready to discover drives. Help would be much appreciated.
    Macbook 2 Ghz Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I'm not sure this issue can be intermittent. If it happens some times then it is spinning down, if it never happens it is not spinning down.
    In general I can agree it is not a good idea to let your drives spin down. However I use my network drive to back up 4 macs ilife libraries once a week and occasionally I will load an update onto it so everyone can access it rather than download it (however I'm not so sure it's not just as quick to download it). In my case I think my drives should spin down and be woken just once a week for back up. At least let us have the option like we do on our macs.
    Ironically I have the opposite issue on my external drives attached to my macs, despite being set never to go to sleep, they do regularly. I access these drives several times each day and spinning down is not a good thing, indeed I only seem to get about 18 months to 2 years out of these drives.

  • HT203301 I turned the iPad on and off, rotated it inthe figure 8 over and over,yet the compass interference prompt does not go away. Any help?

    Need help getting the "compass interference" prompt to go away.

    If you are using the Maps app, quit the app and relaunch it. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    If that doesn't work, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
