Cannot login to airport extreme router settings

Hi
I've recently moved from an iiNet ADSL2+ service to NBN, in Australia. Everything has worked perfectly fine, and continues to, with relation to internet connectivity.
I've just signed up for an iiNet VOIP NetPhone service, and purchased a Gigaset C610 VOIP phone. In trying to connect with my current hardware, I'm running into constant difficulties. The first step is meant to be to login to my modem/router with my new iiNet NetPhone details. However, when I type my IP into Safari, I constantly get error messages saying that it cannot connect to the server.
I'm using an Airport Extreme Base Station, connected via ethernet to one of my Cat6 internet points. This then connects to my NBN box, located in my garage.
I've tried:
various IP address (10.0.1.1, 192.168.1.1 etc.)
connecting my MacBook via wifi and hardwiring
resetting and later restoring my Airport
using different computers (Mac and PC) to login
The internet still works fine, through ethernet and wifi - I just cannot login to my router.
I've phoned my ISP for support and they've said I need to go through Apple as it sounds like something is wrong with my router.
Any help?
Cheers,
Evan

Bump -> anyone?

I recently transferred my internet service to another state.I have not yet moved my imac, just my pc laptop. I cannot get my airport extreme wireless router to work. The green light stays lit when everything is connected but I can't connect to the internet. Any suggestions?

I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

How do I connect a PC via ethernet to my new Airport Extreme router?

I just replaced an old Actiontec router with a new Apple Airport Extreme router to work with my Verizon FIOS service. Connection to all Apple products via ethernet or wireless works OK, however I cannot get the PC up and running via its ethernet connection to the Airport Extreme. Any help would be much appreciated.

If your other devices are working then it is probably the PC's IP configuration.
First, make sure that the PC is actually connected to the Extreme by verifying the lights are on at the Ethernet ports on the PC and the Extreme.
If you are using DHCP to manage the IP addresses then make sure that the PC is configured to "Obtain IP Address Automatically" for both IP versions 4 and 6.
When I replaced my Linksys w/ an Extreme I forgot that I had a couple devices configured with static (manual) IPs. My old one used the "192.168.1.nn" and my Extreme defaulted to "10.0.1.nn". Once i converted all the static IPs to the correct subnet then all was good.

How do I find my Airport Extreme router online?

When I type in the address from my Airport Extreme router (version 802.11n), I cannot find it online. It does not show as an IP address. I am having some problems with my printer and want to set up a static IP address, but want to make sure that I use the correct one. Is there a way to make sure there is only one IP address being used?

You must use the Airport Utility application on your PC to configure the Airports. They are not configured with a web based program.

I-book cannot find the Airport Extreme

I have an i-book, G-3, 14" screen. I just had the logic board replaced through the Apple store because the video card died. Prior to this, I had no problem logging onto the Internet via the Airport Card and my Airport Extreme.
After the repair, I took the i-book home to find that it cannot find the Airport Extreme signal, even when the i-book is one foot away from the Airport Extreme.
I played with the Airport settings for an hour and at one point, got a very weak signal showing on the tool bar. I've tried removing/reinstalling the Airport card and antenna with no results. I've even tried resetting the Airport Extreme by depressing the reset button for 10-seconds, but get no flashing red centerlight as the instructions say I should for a hard reset.
Could this problem have something to do with the new logic board? If so, what's the fix?

Hi, and <IMG src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c55/rondaleroi/welcome.gif"</SUB> to Apple Discussions.
Does adjusting the angle of the display make a difference in the signal strength?
Sometimes the AirPort antenna can get pinched in the hinge, or even broken.
I had an AirPort card that just all of a sudden quit working. I had to buy a new one. Do you know someone you could swap with to make sure it isn't the card itself? (My husband swapped his and my cards--that's how we diagnosed the bad card here.)

Using an Airport Extreme router with PC.

I was told that I could use the Apple Airport Extreme router with my PC - but I can't seem to figure it out. Any suggestions to get started?

Sorry to be so ignorant when it comes to this type of stuff. I have a laptop (Dell) and a home computer (PC). The Apple man told me all I had to do with my previous router was unplug it and plug in the Extreme and it would walk me through the steps. It didn't. I think I may have changed some settings on the PC. Now I can't even get the previous router to work so I'm hardwired in on my laptop to even get here.
Do I need to hardwire in the PC, download the above utility, then try to hook up the Extreme router? How do I make it "secure" or locked so no one else can use it other than ones with the key code?
Thanks so much for the above information. Going to try it now.

Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless won't connect to my new Airport Extreme router

I have owned my Officejet 8000 Wireless printer for about a year and had no problems with it. However, my old wireless router wasn't fully Mac compatible so I couldn't secure it with a password. I now need a secure network, so I bought an Apple Airport Extreme router in December.
I installed the router last night and it is working fine on my iMac, my PC laptop and my iPhone.
However, tonight I am trying to set up the Officejet Pro 8000 with no luck. I've searched the posts here for 3 hours and am not finding the help I need. Based on the other posts I've read, I am describing my situation below.
I am trying to set up the printer from my Intel iMac with Mac OS 10.6.4
I am trying to set up the printer with the HP Setup assistant that I just installed from the printer software.
On the first wizard screen it tells me that my device is not configured (I agree)
Then I ask it to configure for a wireless network.
When I get to the Network Selection page, both my network AND my guest network (which I let my neighbor use) are shown on the list with full signal strength.
When I click my network and then continue, the HP setup wizard freezes, and I have to force-quit it.
When I click my guest network and then continue, I get the message that my network is not within the reach. (FYI, the printer is 10 feet from the router.)
I have tried powering on/off the printer, router, and computer at all different stages of the process with no luck.
For my Airport:
My radio mode is set to the most compatible choice
MAC access control is not enabled
Everything is WPA2 security
"Use wide channels" and "Create a closed network" are UN-checked
The channel is set to 11
I am happy to try the "Add network client" thing I saw on other posts, but I don't think I have a printer front panel where I can start the "WPS" (don't know what that is) process. If I do, it's not obvious and not in the HP manual.
My ISP is Comcast (cable internet).
I would really, really appreciate some help! Please let me know what information I forgot to include and I will be happy to provide it.
Thank you!
This question was solved.

First, you should be at 10.6.6, so please do Software Update (Apple menu) over and over until there are no more updates.
From where did you get the HP software for your printer? Was it labeled as being compatible with 10.6?
Finally, you will need to reset the printer so, let's do that:
Press and hold the Power button, press Network button, (on some models, press the Wireless button ), two times, press the
press the Cancel button three times, and release the Power button.

Can't make Airport Extreme router work with non-Apple device

I am trying to help a friend who has a PC (Windows 7) that has a wired Ethernet connection to his girlfriend's Airport Extreme router. He wants his Internet-capable Blu-Ray player and her IPad to wirelessly access the Internet via the Aiport Extreme router, with both the Blu-Ray player and the IPad's Internet access protected by WPA-2 encryption (both devices are capable of WPA-2). How do I do this?
Here are the problems we've run into:
1) The Airport Utility for Windows (5.6.1) has been installed on the P.C., and we've used it to update the firmware on the Airport Extreme router. However, after we followed the Aiport Utility instructions to set up the network, all the router wanted to do was look for an Apple device. His girlfriend and her IPad are out-of-town right now, so the only device within range was the Blu-Ray player, and the router did not see it. Not only that, but almost all the menu options on the Airport Utility were "greyed out" (unusable), except for "Configuration." I am very troubled by the fact that the Airport Extreme router seems to want to look only for Apple devices.
2) In order to get Internet access for his Blu-Ray player for the time being, my friend pushed the "reset" button on the Airport Extreme router, and he can now use his Blu-Ray player for Netflix and other Internet streaming options. However, the Blu-Ray's wireless Internet access is an unencrypted connection, and the Airport Extreme router is displaying a flashing amber light -- not a good situation.
3) Although I know his girlfriend could access the router via her IPad when she returns, she is French-Canadian, and her IPad operates in French. I happen to know some French, but I have enough trouble trying to understand wireless networking terminology in English without having to try to figure out the equivalent terms in French. Thankfully, the Airport Utility for Windows on his P.C. is in English, so that's what we've got to use to solve this problem.
I have profound respect for Apple products, but I'm a Windows/Linkysis router guy, so that's why I'm stumped. Can anybody out there help me?

Which model of the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) do they have? What is the version of firmware that you updated it to?
By default, the AEBS will broadcast an unsecured Wi-Fi network with a network name (or SSID) of something like Apple Network NNNNNN. This would be similar to a Linksys when first powered-up.

I just purchased an airport extreme router to increase the range of my wifi. I have an imac with 10.5.8. I get a flashing yellow light on the base unit and it tells me I need airport utility to install yhe ubnit. Where do I get this and how do I do it?

So I assume that the original modem stays installed with the coaxial cable and the Exrtreme is in addition to that.
Yes, that is correct.
Did you have the instructions that came with your Airport Extreme? Are you sure you have it setup properly? Here is the setup guide:

Ensure you have everything setup properly. Once you do this and if you are still having trouble, follow Star's instructions.

I cannot get my Airport Extreme to talk to my cable modem

I cannot get my Airport Extreme to talk to my cable modem. Cable modem is a Cisco, new, Charter cable company. New wires throughout. Connected to internet currently hardwired to cable modem. So I have internet service to the modem.

The modem needs an extended power down period in order to reset, as it is "remembering" your computer and thus will not associate with the AirPort Extreme.

I have a Sony Bravia KDL46W905 TV but I can't get it to connect the Airport Extreme router

My Sony Bravia KDL46W905 TV won't connect to my Airport Extreme router and the internet. It recognises and picks up my home wireless network though and I'm inputting the correct password but still won't connect. The router is set to WPA2 Personal.
Anyone any ideas?

While most devices should connect using WPA2 Personal, please temporarily test using no security to see if the Sony TV will connect that way.
If it will, then try the more compatible setting of WPA/WPA2 Personal on the AirPort Extreme and test that way.
However, if the TV will not connect using no wireless security.....then it is a no brainer to conclude that the TV will never connect with security enabled....so more troublehooting is going to be required.
In that case, make sure that the name of your wireless network......
Does not exceed 20 characters, fewer would be better
Does not contain any special characters like an apostrophe, asterisk, dollar sign, etc
Does not have any blank spaces
For example, if the current name of your wireless network is something like.....
rpepler's wireless network
Change that to read something like.....
rpeplerwireless
Same rules for the wireless network password

Trying to get my air video app and my airport extreme router to work.

Hi there. I am getting really frustrated and desperate. I just purchased the app "air video" on my iPad. Installed the software on my mac. Works awesome when I'm on MY WIRELESS NETWORK. I didn't think it would be an issue once I left the house and tried to go on someone else's network to connect, but it just won't work. It keeps giving me the error "host not reachable". I tried opening up the air video troubleshooting info and tried everything but nothing seems to work. I tried under the "remote" tab in the air video server preferences. I clicked both "enable access from Internet" and the "auto map port" options. In the box below I just see the word status and the spinning wheel along with "looking for UPnP or NAT-PMP compatible devices" but the wheel has been spinning for about 15 mins. It doesnt appear to be finding anything.
I've also clicked off the "auto map port" to see if that would do anything. I got the pin and tried that. Still nothing. I tried to look for some information on port forwarding for my airport extreme but everything I'm googleing seems to be years out of date.
I am currently on Mac snow leopard 10.6.3 I believe. Everything is latest version. Using comcast modem with apple airport extreme router. Latest version of Air video app and software. On iOS 4.3.1.
Anyone that can try to help me out, I would be eternally grateful.
Thank you so much

If you have an Airport Extreme router and a slow Internet connection ...

I know that Internet connection speeds are extremely variable, but I wanted to share this post for anyone having performance problems (very slow Internet connection speeds) while using an Airport Extreme router. This may or may not help you, but it might help someone.
I have a RoadRunner Turbo account, and I was experiencing consistently slow Internet download speeds (an average of only about 300KB/sec). However, when I bypassed my router and connected my Mac directly to the Time Warner modem my download speeds were 6 to 8 times faster (up to about 2MB/sec).
After weeks of tinkering and reading Apple documents I discovered that my Airport Extreme router had an improper setting. That setting is found under: Manual Setup -> Internet -> Internet Connection -> Ethernet WAN Port. When I was experiencing the very slow speeds, my Ethernet WAN Port setting was: '100 Mbps/Full Duplex.' To fix the problem I simply changed this to 'Automatic (Default).'
This one change resulted in a huge, positive performance boost for me. I hope this post helps other people.

Seeking a driver for my printer to run through my Airport Extreme router

Im trying to find a driver for my Lexmark X1100 series printer which would allow me to run the printer through the usb port of my Airport Extreme router. The printer works when plugged directly into the usb port of the computer. I have a Windows 7 Asus computer. Can anyone help me please. I am using the Bonjour printer wizard to set up the router for the printer. Thanks

There is no driver that will allow that, as this printer only works by connecting it to a host computer, not to a network. No printer driver or software is ever installed to the AirPort Extreme for any printer. Printer drivers and print/scan/fax software (if any) must be installed separately to each computer that will be using a printer.
