Guest Network reappeared after firmware update- Can't delete it.

I'm running a wireless network from my 1 TB TimeCapsule, with Firmware 7.6.3, which was updated today.  I'm not sure the firmware version previously.  Before a move to a new state, I'd previously run a guest network.  When I got new internet service here after the move, the telephone company supplied a wireless modem, on which I turned off its wireless mode, and shared its internet to the Time Capsule via ethernet  (on the TC: Connection Sharing = off - Bridge Mode).  And Airport Utility no longer let me have the ability to set up a guest network. 
I came to understand that is typical, and actually was persuaded this was better (not splitting bandwidth, etc) per this discussion and others: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18673654#18673654.
Now, today, after this firmware update, suddenly my previous guest network has reappeared, with the same security key that I'd programmed into it in another state.  However, I'm not able to do anything about it!!  There's no access to it via Airport Utility! I think I'd like to turn off the guest network.  But I'm intrigued by the possibility of having the ability to turn it on again. 
Any ideas?

As I'm trying to scan a few threads (with time I don't really have),
ex:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4785878?tstart=0
it looks like this firmware was to support a higher version of Airport Utility (6.1), explicitly with extended guest network support.  I'm guessing my problem, with an older version of Airport Utility, is one of those unexpected collateral damage issues.  A way to go back in firmware is mentioned on the 2nd page of that thread:

About downgrading the firmware. On Airport Utility v5.6 it is simple. I am at the moment on 2 Snow leopard computers.
In the menu of the utility, choose "load Firmware..." thats all.   It seems only to know the previous used firmwares. I skipped 7.6.2 and that is also not available. Also, on my newer  Snow leopard computer I only can choose between 7.6.1 and 7.6.3, while on my other Snow leopard computer I also can in addition choose 7.6 and 7.5.2 versions. Apparently they are stored in the libraries of the local computer.
There is an other option to load other firmware, but than you get a dialog were to look for it.
Would you recommend this?

    Why can I not disable the guest user in the 10.8.2 update? I have never enabled the guest user, but after the update, it was automatically enabled with a "managed" tag. It is not selectable even after entering my admin password to unlock the options. I was able to select the account under "parental controls", but again, could not delete it. Why Apple? Why?!!????

    SOLVED Ok. I actually was able to disable it. I had to actually log in as the guest user to make it accessible in the preference window. Then I disabled it and logged out. Apologies if this was obvious for some people, but I have had some sort of issue with something every update since Snow Leopard.

  • Restoring after firmware update - Ways :)

    Hi All,
    Nowadays we are receiving quite a few complaints that customers are unable to restore the application after updating their firmware.  I would like all to discuss to come up with some ways to restore their applications after firmware update.
    Before updating firmware
    Customer can backup his phone using Nokia PC Suite's Content Copier application.
    He can store his Contacts and Messages using Nokia Communication Centre as .csv file or .txt file.
    For his Contacts he can sync with pc suite supported sync applications.
    Messages he can store in Memory card and he can make a backup of memory card in PC.
    If he is using Nokia PC Suite for his Multimedia items he can use Image Store if he is using Nokia PC Suite or Nokia Photos if he is using Nokia OVI Suite.
    For Music he can use Nokia Music Manager or Nokia Music.
    Once after updating his firmware, if he is unable to restore he can get those from above said applications.
    If his calendar entries are not restored(as in case of some of Nokia e 71s and Nokia N 95/95 8 GBs), for God's sake if he has got one more similar device(or device having switch application on phone), he can restore the backup file to another phone having switch application, then he can transfer his data (Contacts, Calenders etc ) to his original phone
    Dear Forum members, if you have got any other work around please let me know regarding the same, which will help our customers

    Hi,
    If you have issue in Nokia PC Suites, [subject to your phone's compatibility with Nokia OVI Suite 2.0.0.10 ],
    you can install Nokia OVI Suite 2.0.0.10 and check if you can take backup and restore it later.
    Also i would suggest to use USB for taking backup, since it will be faster than Bluetooth.  Also you can select one category at one time(say backup contacts alone, then Calendar, then messages etc and so on ....)
    Its better to skip memory card backup while backup-ing other Phone data for faster backup.  Memory card backup can be done separtely(since it wont be affetcted while updating firmware, users can safely remove memory card while updating firmware)
    Nowadays though recent phones has got UDP(User Data Prevention i.e., even if you update your phone's firmware, your data wont get erased ), still it is recommended to backup your phone data.
    Hope this could help
    I welcome our experts to add more details related to this topic.

  • Problems after firmware update 52.0.007

    Hi,
    I got my phone back after the shop fixed a problem and updated the firmware to the latest version 52.0.007.
    But now I have following problems:
    I can't get the calendar anymore to show up on the homescreen, even after checking the checkbox to do so
    The Radio app. is gone
    Does anyone has a solution for this?
    Iwan

    It may sound crazy but sometimes you need to "hard reset" device after firmware update (beware all data erased) by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by yourself). Sometimes UDP = User Data Prersevation feature of 5800XM can carry over corrupt entries when updating.

  • Ovi Maps 3 don´t start after firmware update (6220...

    Hello!
    a few days ago I installed ovi maps 3 on my nokia 6220c and it works well. Later I updated the firmware from version 03.06 to 05.15.
    After firmware update ovi maps don´t start-> "Cannot open application. Install latest version from nokia.com/maps."
    But Nokia Map Updater says, there are no updates for my maps.
    What´s wrong?
    Can I reinstall Ovi Maps 3? Or is it possible to install Ovi Maps 3 new?
    thanks

    Hello!
    The Map Updater said: "there is no update for your phone" ...because maps 3 is already installed.
    But in the meantime I have found a solution!!
    I downloaded maps 2.0 from the German nokia page and installed it. Later I started Map Updater and could update to Maps 3 and now it works!!!
    I think the problem was: I first updated to Maps 3 and later updated the firmware. There was any older version of fixes included in the firmware update, so Maps 3 was damaged...
     thanks
    sorry for my bad English

  • Software Update can't check for updates because of a network problem....after firmware update

    I just bought a MBP w/Lion (10.7.4) and ran software update.  The first two items I updated were firmware for SMC (ver 1.5) and EFI (ver 2.7) and now my MBP says: "Software Update can't check for updates because of a network problem."  However, I can connect to the Internet to surf the web just fine.  This is the only update I've made.  Can firmware be uninstalled?  If I reverted to the image on my external drive that I did with CCC prior to the update, would that fix it?

    Hi! i hope i'm able to explain what i worked out and what worked for me. I had the same message coming up "no internet connection, run network/internet diagnosis" etc etc. Internet connection was fine. What i finally did:
    Open airport, check internet, internet options ; with me, IPv6 was set as  this (the letters are in german order and not in a english order, sorry...):
    In system prefs, network/TCP/IP  IPv6 was set to "automatic":
    I did change the settings in Airport back to "Link Local" and Software Update worked immediately normal whithout restarting the computer.
    No idea what changed the settings; however i did run permission repairs beforehand with no connection to any problems, just as a normal kind of 'maintenance routine'.
    Hope this helps others, it worked for me.
    Cheers

  • Why after firmware update to Airport Express 2nd generation on 12 Aug can I not wirelessly access access hard disks connected to airport

    During the firmware install there was a problem so that the status light on airport express was amber. It would change to gree for a short while after re-plugging the USB connection between the Airport and hard desk drives (via a hub).
    I can see the hard disks listed on the macbook (OSX 10.7.5) finder but not the files on the desks. The hard desk listing have also come up on the imac (OSX 10.6.8) but not often and again there are no files listings available.
    A Brothers LaserJet printer sometimes also connected to the hub and then airport also sometimes requires a re-plugging of the USB connection between the hub and airport.

    Apple uses Akamai for their software distribution.
    See
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3923
    The latter (http://swcdn.apple.com) currently redirects to the Akamai content distribution network that hosts the updates. Note that the redirected IP address of http://swcdn.apple.com may vary over time or by geographic region.
    and https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/akamais-state-of-the-internet/id800491468?mt=8
    Many of the large computer companies use akamai for software.. so it may have picked up those addresses from clients behind the Express.. although normally their IP should show directly.

  • Can't connect to internet after firmware update?

    well last night i did a firmware update and now i can't connect to my network at home. i have a server running dhcp. so i gave the extreme a static ip in the range. dns and router ip are set to the servers ip. this all was working fine till last night. what am i doing wrong? i can't even log onto the server from my MBP. the APE is connected directly by ethernet to the server.
    thanks

    HI and welcome......
    On your iPad...
    Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
    That resets to factory default. You may be prompted for your network password.
    Hope that helps...

  • Qosmio X300 - Can't write disk after firmware update

    I have a serious proble. After a firmware-update for my pioneer dvd-drive I can't write anything anymore on disks.
    I really need some help there

    I just received my new drive and installed it on my Qosmio x300 13E.
    It is a LG GBW-T10N drive and it works perfectly. The included software allows me in combination with the newest driver for the nvidia gforce x9800 graphic controller to upscale films to a full HD resolution.
    It is absolutely amazing. I just had to try it with a normal dvd and I had a full HD entertainment on my flat screen tv.
    The replacement of the broken drive was easy. You simply need to loosen one screw on the bottom of the notebook and then you simply pill it out.
    If anyone wants to do it too, I can give accurate advice for it.
