Can't configure Airport Extreme with IP 192.168.0.1 after software update

Hi there,
after updating my ax with utility software 5.3.1 and firmware 7.3.1. The software didn't allow the dhcp configuration to stay at IP range from 192.168.0.40 to 192.168.0.200
The message said that this is not a valid IP.
The configuration was working before without any problem.
After several tries I changed to 192.168.1.40 and 192.168.1.200. Now I was able to save the changes. And the airport is working well.
But I can't go back to 192.168.0
But I need to use 192.168.0 for a tunnel to connect to my wifes company.
Configuration:
Seperate Modem with DSL.
Connecting over PPPoE
Activeted WLan
Connected computers over Lan and Wlan
Can anybody help?
Thanx
Stephan

by-feet, Welcome to the discussion area!
AFAIK the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) has always forced the 3rd digit to be a 1 (one), as in x.y.1.z.
Could it be that you previously had the AEBS to operate as a bridge and your "modem" was actually suppling the IP addresses?

Can I use Airport Extreme with a westell 7500

I have Verizon DSL with a Westell 7500. Can I connect the Airport Exreme as the router and
use the 7500 as a modem only?

When you configure the Westell device for simple bridge mode operation, it will no longer provide the PPPoE connection credentials, so you will need to setup the PPPoE connection on the AirPort Extreme.
AirPort Utility - Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon
Click the Internet Connection tab
Connect Using = PPPoE
Enter your ISP user name...(probably your email address).... and password
Leave the Service Area name completely blank
Connection = Always On
Disconnet if Idle= Never
Update to save settings
Power down the entire network
Wait a moment or two
Start the modem first, let it run a minute or two by itself
Start the AirPort Extreme next the same way
Continue starting devices one at a time about a minutes apart until everything is powered back up

Configure airport extreme with dsl modem

Need Help-I have a new DSL modem CenturyLink Q1000z, that is providing wireless to my home. I want to put it in bridge mode and use my aiport extreme base station(square one). Please explain how to configure it with aiport utility 6.0. I will need step by step as I cannot seem to find it in any forum. thanks

I have a new DSL modem CenturyLink Q1000z, that is providing wireless to my home. I want to put it in bridge mode
I suppose that it is possible that another CenturyLink user might have done this and will see this post...but at the same time it is also highly unlikely that this might occur.
Your best bet may be to refer to the Support Site for Centurylink for answers:
http://qwest.centurylink.com/internethelp/modems.html
Once you have the modem in Bridge Mode, you can configure the AirPort Extreme as follows using AirPort Utility 6.0:
Connect and Ethernet cable from the Centory Link modem to the WAN port (circle icon) on the AirPort Extreme
Open AirPort Utility 6.0
Click on Other AirPort Base Stations in the upper left hand corner of the window
Click on the AirPort Extreme
AirPort Utility will take a moment to analyze things and then suggest that you configure the AirPort Extreme to "Create a wireless network"
Edit the name of the Wireless Network and Base Station as you wish
Enter a Password and Confirm
Enter your user name and password for your provider's service
Leave the Service Name area completely blank
Set Connection to Always On
Click Next
When you see the message that AirPort Utility has configured your AirPort Extreme, click Done

Can i use airport extreme, with apple tv and pc without the internet

While renting/buying films on itunes is all well and good, my wireless capacity is poor, if i buy airport extreme, without connecting it to the internet, will it stream my films on itunes from the PC to apple TV?

...if i buy airport extreme, without connecting it to the internet, will it stream my films on itunes from the PC to apple TV?
Yes. An Internet connection is not required. However, of course, the AirPort or your Apple TV will not be able to stream content from the Internet.

Help needed please, with Iphone stuck with apple picture and progress bar after software update attempted

Help needed please, everytime I try to update the software version on my iphone it comes up with a message saying it could not be completed and is now frozen with the apple picture and progress bar on it. Do I unplug it and hope the macbook pro sees it again, I also stupidly did not back up before starting the download which I realise I will have to go back to the previous back up. This keeps happening, everytime I do this type of update, I'm starting to think I should just give up on updating my software on the Iphone. I thought it was happening because I was using a window based computer to do the updates, this time I used my Macbook Pro. Please somebody help

Bluetooth connection with audi MMI iphone 4 drops after software update 5.0.1

Hello,
After uptdating my iPhone 4 with software 5.0.1, I have problems with my bluetooth connection in my car (2006 Audi MMI). When I make a call or someone calls me, after a minute or so, the connection is lost for 10- 15 seconds, and then reconnects again. Pretty annoying.
Someone got a solution?

I got the exact same problem. Noticed in the morning while hoping to check out the extra features.
Taking my lunch break now to research solutions...

How to make Mac OS X Server auto-configure Airport Extreme port-mapping

Mac OS X Server can automatically configure AirPort Extreme to make services such as iChat, Mail, Web, and VPN accessible: http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/features/networking-vpn.html
I presume this configuration generally takes place during a fresh installation of the server.
Is there any way to re-run this process post-installation?

That page talks about Snow Leopard's Networking abilities, not Leopards.
Off hand, I don't know whether what you describe is a new feature in Snow Leopard or not, but I've never seen Leopard do it (and, to be honest, wouldn't want to).
In either case, it's basically just Bonjour telling the router to configure port forwarding. Given that, I'd start by enabling mod_bonjour in Apache:
#LoadModule bonjour_module libexec/apache2/mod_bonjour.so
but I don't know how other processes are doing it.

Can i extend the range of an airport extreme with another airport extreme and use the ports on the airport extreme i used to extend the network?

That seems like a complicated question.
I have a Time Capsule (which the HD *****, but that is matter for another discussion) and want to extend the range with an Airport Extreme because I have 2 devices in one room that do not do wireless but have Ethernet ports.
The room has iffy WiFy connectivity too.
I want to know if the 3 ports on the Airport Extreme still work after configuring it as an extender rather than a router.

The thing is that I want to know if I can put the Airport Extreme at the edge of the room where the existing Base does not reach.
This will not work.
Remember, an "extending" AirPort can only extend the quality of wireless signal that it receives. For that reason, it must be located where it can receive a strong wireless signal in order to work effectively.
For example, let's say that your "main" router was on one end of the house and you want to extend the signal to reach the other end of the house. In this case, you would locate the "extending" AirPort about half way between the main router and the other side of the house.

I have an airport extreme with a USB printer attached (non-airprint). Can i print from my ipad?

I have an airport extreme with a USB printer attached, it is a non airprint printer.
I can print via my network from my desktop but I want to know if i can print from my ipad 2 and ipad 1

Printing from an iPad or iPhone
To print directly from an iPad you need an AirPrint - enabled printer on the same wireless network as the iPad. All AirPrint printers are wireless but not all wireless printers are AirPrint-enabled.
If you do not have an AirPrint printer, a number of workarounds exist that enable the use of any printer you normally use, even older ones that may predate AirPrint by decades. Search for the following products:
handyPrint (Mac only, donation-supported)
Printopia (Mac only, $19.95 with free trial)
These are utilities you install on the Mac you normally use for printing, enabling it to act as an AirPrint print server. The Mac must be "on" but may be asleep for them to work. The iPad needs nothing else, no iOS apps need to be installed and no configuration is necessary. If your computer can print, so can the iPad, using one of these utilities on your Mac.
Equivalent utilities may exist for PCs but I have no experience with them - I suggest https://www.collobos.com
You can also buy this standalone hardware print server, bypassing the need for a computer altogether:
http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver.html
Otherwise you will need to buy an AirPrint printer or multifunction device.

How to configure airport extreme to work with Actiontec gt701d modem

I have been trying to set up a new Actiontec modem to work with a new Airport Extreme with no luck. I don't know what the right settings are to get it to work correctly. So far the only way I have been able to get the two to work together is to have the AE connect with ethernet and bridge mode. However with this configuration I can't setup a guest network which I would like to be able to do. I have read some past posts and have tried other configurations but end up either losing internet connection or getting a very slow connection. If anyone has some idea how to get this modem to work with the AE i would really appreciate some advice
Thank you

Welcome to the discussion area, Meagan!
The Actiontec "modem" that you mention is really a gateway...a combination modem/router, so with this device and the AirPort Extreme, you have two routers on the network.
Whenever you have two routers on a network, the first router must be configured to handle the main routing chores and any other routers must be configured in Bridge Mode to function correctly. So, Bridge Mode is the correct setting for the AirPort Extreme when used with the Actiontec gt701d gateway.
In order for the AirPort Extreme to provide a Guest Network, it must be configured as the "main" router on a network. This won't be possible unless you can re-configure the Actiontec device to act as a simple modem, not a router. You might want to check with Actiontec support to see whether this might be possible.

Configure an older airport extreme with an ipad1

I'm a complete noob regarding wireless. I bought an ipad1 and an older aiport extreme (the white round one) off of ebay and am not sure how to get it all up and running. My Mac Pro does not have a wifi card so I can't use that. I plan to connect the airport to my router via ethernet. I've read that you can't configure an airport extreme with the ipad. What do I need to do to set up the extreme so the ipad can see and use it?
thanks

If the extreme is already configured, can I edit it using the app?
Sure, if AirPort Utility recognizes the AirPort Extreme. Otherwise, you have to perform a Factory Default Reset on the Extreme and start over from scratch
Open AirPort Utility, select the Extreme, and click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons to get to the wireless settings.
You want Wireless Mode set to "'Create a wireless network"
Wireless Network Name is your choice
Radio Mode = Automatic or 802.11b/g
Channel =Automatic
Wireless Security = WPA/WPA2 Personal
Password = Your choice
Confirm Password
Click the Internet icon
Click the Internet Connection tab
Connect Using = Ethernet
Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
Update to save settings.

I have replaced my airport extreme with a new airport time capsule and want to know how I can set up my extreme to extend/strengthen my Wi-Fi?

I have replaced my airport extreme with a new airport time capsule and want to know how I can set up my extreme to extend/strengthen my Wi-Fi?

Start with a "hard reset" (see below) then use AirPort Utility to configure it.
When asked what you want to do with it, indicate that you want it to add to an existing network, similar to the following screenshot.
Follow the prompts that will eventually lead you to the words "wirelessly extend..." as shown.
To "hard reset" an AirPort Base Station: make sure it's powered up, then press and hold its tiny reset button and keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.

I have a Airport Extreme with a 1TB external HD connected to it. How can I password protect certain files?

I have a Airport Extreme with a 1TB external HD connected to it. I have it set up so my Macbook Pro and PC's in the house can access it. i have some files that i would like to protect(sensitive personal info.). Is there a way that can be done where as certain folders are password protected? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Would a good workaround be to use disk utility to set up a password protected sparse image, of course being connected directly to the Mac, then connect the drive to the Airport Extreme?
Then, couldn't one use that drive and protected files as normal on the airport? It would just require one extra step of using a Mac to set things up first.
I disconnected my Airport so cannot check it out for myself.

How can I access HDD on Airport Extreme with iPad

Without third-party software I don't think you can. An iPad has no user-accessible interface to a file system. Just what is it you're trying to do?
