Can't enable port mapping on my Airport (7.7.1 - newest version)

I'm having a tough go of enabling port mapping for my new Airport. It's the 7.7.1 version.
Is there a manual available?
Thanks!

How to Enable Port Mapping on my AirPort Express? - Screens Connect

Hi, everyone. I recently purchased a VNC app called Screens 3 and downloaded its desktop assistant, Screens Connect. The process was pretty straightforward and I was easily able to connect my iPhone and iPad to my MacBook Air over my local Wi-Fi. However, I am still unable to connect to my MacBook over LTE or any other Wi-Fi. Here's a look at what the Screens Connect preference panel looks like:
As you can see there aren't a whole lot of options, but Port Mapping is apparently a no-go. I'm guessing this is the resaon I can't connect over anything other than my local Wi-Fi. If anyone here could help me turn that red into a green, I'd be forever grateful. Thanks!

The instructions for enabling port mapping are pretty straightforward, but it never seems to make any difference. If it helps, I am technically living in a college dorm, and have my AirPort Express plugged directy into the wall's ethernet port. I'm assuming, using bridge-mode and all, that I actually have two routers, and the university's router is the one that I need to enable port mapping on. If I'm correct, is there a way to enable port mapping on my side without having to go through my university? Again, this is just conjecture. But the steps are fairly simple, so I'm not sure what else it could be.

I have airport extreme and just purchased a D-Link DCS-932L home network camera. D-Link says I need UpNp but the extreme doesn't support this. Can I use port mapping? if so anyone know how to set that up? thanks

I have airport extreme and just purchased a D-Link DCS-932L home network camera. D-Link says I need UpNp but the extreme doesn't support this. Can I use port mapping? if so anyone know how to set that up? thanks

Since the D-Link DCS-932L is accessible on the local network via a web browser, you should be able to access this camera from the Internet if your router has a publically accessible Public IP address. If your ISP provides you with a dynamic Public IP address, you may want to use a DDNS service to make it easier for you to locate your camera whenever your ISP changes your IP address.
Start the AirPort Utility > Select the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn).
Select Manual Setup.
Verify that Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address is selected on the Internet > Internet Connection tab.
Select Advanced, and then, select the Port Mapping tab.
Click the plus sign to add a new port mapping.
For Service, leave the default; this will change to "Custom" once you start entering port values.
In the Public UDP Port(s) and Public TCP Port(s) boxes, type in a 4-digit port number (e.g., 8888) that you choose. In the Private IP Address box, type the internal IP address of your camera. In the Private UDP Port(s) and Private TCP Port(s) boxes, enter the appropriate port values that should have been provided to you by the camera manufacturer. Click Continue.
In the Description box, type a descriptive name like "Internet Camera Access," and then, click Done.
Click on Update.
To connect to the shared Camera from a remote location using a Mac or PC:
Start your favorite web browser.
Enter either your Public IP address or DDNS-provided Domain Name, followed by a colon and the Public port number that you choose in step 7 of the previous procedure. For example: http://123.123.123.123:8888 or http://www.mydtdnsdomainname.com:8888

Hi, i'm Architec and my basic programs are: Autodesk Architecture and 3D studio Max. Can i run it in the MacBook Pro 13.3-Inch (NEWEST VERSION) Thanks!!!

Hi, i'm Architec and my basic programs are: Autodesk Architecture and 3D studio Max. Can i run it in the MacBook Pro 13.3-Inch (NEWEST VERSION) Thanks!!!

You can but make sure you upgrade your RAM to 16GB - you can't do that through Apple...
Autodesk is a memory intensive program and the same goes with 3D Studio Max.....
Another suggeston if you must use a 13 inch is to buy the base 13 inch Macbook Pro and upgrade the RAM to 16GB and install a SSD to make it perform fast.
Another option is to get a refurbished 15 Inch Macbook Pro and do the RAM upgrade yourself...Advantage going 15 Inch is because it has it's own discrete graphics adapter rather than the built in Intel video.

Can't get Port Mapping to work

Ever since i got the AEBS(wireless n) I can't figure out how to do port mapping. Say i want to forward 41857, how do i set it up?

Try the following ...
AEBSn - Port Mapping Setup
To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the host device.
Internet > DHCP tab
o On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
o Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
o Reserve address by: MAC Address
o Click Continue.
o MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
o IPv4 Address: <enter the desired IP address>
o Click Done.
2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
Advanced > Port Mapping tab
o Click the "+" (Add) button
o Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
o Public UDP Port(s): 41857
o Public TCP Port(s): 41857
o Private IP Address: <enter the IP address of the host server>
o Private UDP Port(s): 41857
o Private TCP Port(s): 41857
o Click "Continue"

[Ubuntu 14.04] How can I enable port-range endpoint?

I have deployed an Ubuntu 14.04 VM on Azure and I want to enable port-range endpoint.. How can I do that?
If not allowed from the portal, does configuring the ports via iptables command opens these ports for me?
Sorry I'm new to Cloud and got confused about private/public IPS

Hi Yaseer;
IP TABLES do not open with endpoints. You will have to configure endpoints first. Check out this

Help! no port mapping tab in airport utility port forwarding.

Hello I am trying to port forward my airport extreme router to host servers. I watched every single tutorial on the internet but nothing works because I dont have a port mapping tab under advaced in airport utility. btw I am running bootcamp windows7. Thanks in advance

Where are you looking?
The settings for Router Mode are under the Network tab.

I Can't access the iTunes music store after updating to the newest version of iTunes

I know this sounds like a newbie question, but I have been using iTunes for over five years now. I recently updated to the newest version of iTunes (10.5 I think) and ever since that I have not been able to access the iTunes store. It has been over a week now and I am really confused. The status bar will just freeze and then it will disappear when I click to go on the store. I have tried reinstalling iTunes and that hasn't worked. Not sure what to do. Thanks for any suggestions.

I've got the same problem, and have reinstalled my entire system and haven't installed any Anti Virus or Spyware programs yet, and still can't get into the stores.
When I wrote last week to tech support they couldn't help me via email, and to me that I might need to go to the fee based support to get this resolved.
Does anyone have a phone number to tech support that's free to get this fixed?

Can I open Indesign 2.0 files with cs6 or the newest version of cc?

I want to buy either cs6 or the newest version of cc. I just need to know if I can open InDesign 2.0 files with either of these newer versions?

In theory, yes, but it's hard to predict what's going to happen with that big a gap in versions. I suggest you download a trial and give it a test, and if the file opens, the very first thing you should do is save as .idml. then open that and save as a new .indd without overwriting the original.

Port Mapping problem with a Snow Base Station

I wish to enable port mapping with my Airport Snow Base Station. (SBS) I am using an Earthlink Efficient Stream 5667 DSL modem to my SBS. I am running firmware version 4.0.9 and connecting with 10.4.3.
So -- enabling port mapping requires that the IP address on my 10.4.3 computer doesn't change, and that I then map the ports. However, I can not manually assign an IP (say 10.0.1.201) as my 10.4.3 can not connect using either "DHCP with manual address" or "manually" (where the router and subnet mask match the DHCP assignment)
What should I do?

Do not use the "DHCP with manual IP address" - that is a mode not supported by most networking devices on the market.
What you should do: on your Mac, open System Preferences->Network->Show Airport->TCP/IP tab. Select to "configure manually". Then enter the following parameters:
- IP address: 10.0.1.201
- subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
- router/gateway IP: 10.0.1.1
- DNS IP: use either 10.0.1.1, or enter the actual IP address(es) of your ISP's domain name servers

How do I configure my airport utility for port mapping?

I am trying to view my FOSCAM cameras over the internet while away from home. They work fine in my house using Wi-Fi. Instructions say to do port forwarding. I have cameras set up, but can't get my router to port forward. I found "Port Forwarding" in Airport Utlility then NETWORK. 'Router mode: DHCP and NAT';on 'Port Settings I click on the "+" at the bottom. 'Private IP Address: populates to 10.0.1.201'. What goes in the other blocks?

Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details on how to configure Port Mapping on the AirPort routers. I would suggest that you check your FOSCAM documentation as to what TCP and/or UDP ports are required to access their IP cameras from a remote location.

Airport Extreme v7.3.3 Port Mapping Port 80

I have a DVR in my home which is connected to my home network. It has a static IP address. I would like to be able to utilize its mobile app from any mobile/cellular network. The manufacturer of my DVR tells me that I need to open up Port 80 on my router, which is an Airport Extreme running v7.3.3.
I have tried looking up solutions and have found similar results but nothing for the AirPort running v7.x.x. Everything I have found is for version v6.x.x or v5.x.x.
I have tried using the following examples with no success, which may be fault on my part, as well as the document:
AirPort - Port Mapping Basics using AirPort Utility v6.x
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Apple/AirPortExtreme/defa ultguide.htm
Re: How do I open ports on my airport extreme and assign a fixed IP Address for a device connected to my network?
Any further advice would be welcome. Thank you. I will gladly provide further details upon request/as needed.

I have tried looking up solutions and have found similar results but nothing for the AirPort running v7.x.x. Everything I have found is for version v6.x.x or v5.x.x.
Unfortunately, you have the firmware version of the AirPort mixed up with the software version of AirPort Utility, the application used to setup and administer the AirPort router.
Your AirPort was setup using software either by AirPort Utility 6.x...or....an iPad or iPhone running the iOS version of AirPort Utility. Either of those applications will allow you to set up port mapping......IF.....the AirPort is setup as the main router on your network.
Or, in other words....you do not have the AirPort connected to another modem/router on the network.
Now might be a very good time to confirm on the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem", since that will dictate the next move as far as setting up ports.

How do I use Port Mapping?

b How do I use Port Mapping?
(This document will assume that you are using and ABS/AEBS/AX as an internet router and have DHCP & NAT turned on.)
Sometime you may want to offer access to a computer on your AirPort network to users on the internet, whether it be a web site, or for file sharing, or just remote access for yourself when traveling. If any of these sound like something you want to do, then you need to understand how Port Mapping works.
b AirPort as Firewall
Most of the time your AirPort base station will not let any traffic into your network which did not originate from your network. It will let everything out and replies to your traffic back in, but it will not let sessions initiated on the internet side of the base station in to your network. This is what is referred to as the "NAT firewall" capability of the base station and it provides effective protection for your network from the internet. What Port Mapping does is poke a hole in this wall to allow certain type(s) of traffic into the network and direct this traffic to a specific computer on the network. In the firewall world this is commonly referred to as an "inbound proxy" or "inbound translation" rule or "PAT" (Port Address Translation) in the router world.
b The Need for Manual Addressing
Since a Port Mapping entry in the base station configuration requires an inside private IP address to be specified, the computer to which to mapping entry applies should always have the IP address specified in the mapping entry. Thus, DHCP should not be used for a computer offering services on the internet as the Port Mapping entry will no longer work if the target computer's IP address changes. In general, an Apple base station's DHCP server will try to assign IP addresses in the 10.0.1.2 to 10.0.1.200 range. IP addresses above 10.0.1.200 can be Manually assigned to computers and other devices on the network up to 10.0.1.254. 10.0.1.255 is reserved (it is the broadcast address for the 10.0.1 subnet). To Manually set up the TCP/IP information for a Macintosh running Mac OS X, go to System Preferences -> Network and "Show" the appropriate interface (Ethernet or AirPort) and click on the TCP/IP tab. Select "Configure Manually" and enter the following information:
IP address : 10.0.1.201 (or whatever address you decide to use)
Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
Router IP : 10.0.1.1 (the AirPort base station LAN IP)
DNS server : 10.0.1.1, or whatever DNS server IP your ISP uses
After making these changes verify that your computer can still access the internet and local resources on the LAN before continuing.
b Port Mapping a service
In our example we will be hosting a web site on a computer which we have given an IP address of 10.0.1.201. Basic web sites are accessed using the HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP) and this protocol typically uses port 80 to communicate. In order for others to see the web site, we must configure a Port Mapping entry in the base station configuration to not only allow the web browsers in, but to tell the base station what IP address the web server is using. The Port Mapping entry has three parts: Public Port, Private IP, and Private Port. In this case you would use the following values:
Public Port : 80
Private IP : 10.0.1.201 (this is the computer hosting the web site)
Private Port : 80
In order to access the web site from the internet, users must reference the base station's WAN port public IP (determined by looking at the base station configuration summary page in the AirPort Admin Utility). Since this address may change over time, you might want to use a Dynamic DNS service to simplify connecting for your users.
Sometimes the port you wish to use may be blocked by the ISP. In this case, use a different non-standard Public Port number for the service, but keep the Private Port standard. In the above example, if the ISP was blocking port 80, you could potentially use 8080 instead, so:
Public Port :

Public Port : 8080
Private IP : 10.0.1.201
Private Port : 80
Your users would then have to enter "http://<publicIP>:8080/" (where <publicIP> is the public IP address of the AirPort base station) to access the web site.
b Internal Access
It should be noted that when accessing these services from within the network you cannot reference the Public IP/Public Port, but rather you must use the Private IP/Private Port. Thus, "http://10.0.1.201:80/" in the above example.
b Limits and Options
There is a maximum of 20 Port Mapping entries that can be made in an Apple base station configuration. If you use an AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express base station there is an option which can be helpful in the case where you need many ports opened to a single computer. This is the "Default Host" option. When using this it is not necessary to use Port Mapping at all as all ports will be opened to the specified "Default Host". This is found in "Base Station Options". The default IP address for the "Default Host" is 10.0.1.253. You may change this IP address. The target computer must be Manually configured as specified above with the same IP address. Since all ports are now open to this computer, you should enable and configure the Mac OS X firewall on the default host computer to protect it from intruders.

Can't open port 80

I just can't open port 80 on my AEBS n 1st G. I want to use this port to enable access from the internet to my Mini server's wiki pages.
I've added port 80 in the "Port Mapping" tab of Airport utility under "personal web sharing", but when I check the port with the network utility, it remains closed.
What am I doing wrong. Please help.
This is the data of the mapping tab in Airport utility:
Public TCP port: 80
private IP address:10.0.1.201
Private TCP port: 80
rest empty.

Sorry for not replying sooner, I was out of town.
I did the setup as you showed it, tested it and it still doesn't work.
I also contacted my ISP with some questions about the port 80 being open or not. Their answer is that port 80 is always open as that's the port used to access the internet (made me feel like my question was reeeaaaally stupid...). I explained I had found some info on the internet that said the Zyxel modems very often come with the port 80 closed, and that nearly made them laugh... :-(
So I once again did a scan of my public port and get this:
Port Scanning host: 200.124.48.xxx
Open TCP Port: 21     ftp
Open TCP Port: 53     domain
Open TCP Port: 554    rtsp
Open TCP Port: 3900   udt_os
Open TCP Port: 5009   winfs
No port 80 in view.
I also did a traceroute of the Dyndn'ssed domain I want to access on my server and get this:
