How Airports base station update Dynamic Global Hostname?

Hello!
For several days, I try to run my own DNS server with bind9.
My Airport Express has a dynamic IP and I would like to be able to use dynamic DNS.
When you configure the DNS server on my bind9 (linux machine), Airport update the entries, but when I want to protect the DNS using keys (dnssec or rndc) my Airport can not update the entry (update denied). The DNS server is configured correctly, because I can update it via nsupdate from another linux machine.
My Airport firmware is 7.6.4
Please help in solving this problem.

AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001 for Windows

Hi,
Is anyone else having problems after applying the latest AirPort Base Station update (version 5.1) found here
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportbasestationupdate2007001forwindows .html
Before this update I was able to use the AirPort Utility in Windows (version 5.0) but now I receive the following error
AirPort Utility has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
AppName: aputil.exe
AppVer:5.1.0.14
ModName: kernel32.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.2945
Offset: 00012a5b
The only fix I have is to uninstall and reinstall the original version 5.0
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Dell Inspiron Windows XP Pro also MacBook with Mac OS X (10.4.9)

You are not alone, I have the same problem. This is after removing and reinstalling 5.0, re-downloading the update - once from Software Update and once directly from the apple site. Still NO JOY! Back on 5.0

Airport Base Station update has disconnected my internet

i recently updated my airport, during the installation i pressed change all to key chains, it said my internet might be temporarily unavailable however it never came back. I can no longer connect to the airport base station, or connect to my original network, whenever i try to access files to do with my network it says there is an error. i've gone through system preferences to try and reconnect but it wont allow it, i have also gone through airport utility but it just tells me to rescan.
thankyou for your help

If all else fails, you might need to perform a soft or hard reset to factory defaults, then you have to set everything up again, but it might restore it to working condition.
Not sure if this is the model base station that you have:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451
check the user guide that came with it, in case the procedure may be different.
I hope that helps.
When I bought an "open-box" unit, the device was already set up by someone else with a password, and the hard reset allowed me to start from scratch so I could configure it.

Is "AirPort Base Station Update 2007-002" the one that "kills" wireless?

I downloaded an update the other day that basically shot my wireless all to ****. The symptoms sounded very much like what most people blamed 10.4.10 for. I had upgraded to 10.4.10 weeks before with no issues but I think "2007-002" was one of the 3 updates I downloaded the other day, only to have wireless pretty much die within minutes. Can I safely download 10.4.10 (need it for iWork '08) and skip 2007-002 so I get the newer OS but avoid the connection issues?

Base Station Update 2007-001: AirPort Utility - where?

I am confused (is this a surprise?):
The recent "AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001" (see link below) includes general fixes and compatibility updates for the following applications, and I quote:
- AirPort Utility
- AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow Base Stations.
I do have AirPort Admin Utility 4.2. So I download the update, but it tells me:
"You CANNOT install AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001 on this volume.
This update requires AirPort Utility 5/0 to be installed."
Pardon? I do have AirPort Admin Utility 4.2.
* Where can I get AirPort Utility in order to update AirPort Admin Utility?
Sure, if I buy a new square base station, I'll get AirPort Utility on a CD. But how to apply the fixes to my good old white spaceship and update AirPort Admin Utility? Looking for clarification. Thanks.
Update: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/airportbasestati onupdate2007001formac.html

The old "Airport Admin Utility" 4.2.3 gets bumped to 4.2.5 and the name is changed to "AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow" since it is the only one still supporting the older models.
The bump from 4.2.3 to 4.2.5 must have fixed compatibility problems between the graphite/snow and "AirPort Admin Utility". If not, then owners of those base stations are going to experience problems.
Both Utilities can configure older Extreme and Express Base Stations.
It seems odd that one would be named specifically "...for Graphite and Snow"...

HT3728 I have forgotten my password. How do I reset for a new password to update my airport base station.

My Airport Base Station needs to be updated & asks for my password. I did not set it up & can't remember the password. How do I reset my password for my Airport Base Station? This is causing me problems.

I lost my connection with my AirPort Base Station when I upgraded to the OS Maverick. How can I get my system to recognize the base station again?

I lost my connection with my AirPort Base Station when I upgraded to the OS Maverick. I can still see the Internet, but the Time Machine cannot backup now because it cannot locate the AirPort base station. How can I resolve this issue?
Steps already taken with zero success:
1. Restarted the AirPort Base Station multiple times.
2. Restarted the Mac Pro multiple times.
3. Looked online for AirPort update for 6.3.2 version.
Other Apple products in my house can still see the AirPort Base Station, however my Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro cannot.
Please advise.

That information helps. If you want to use one of the SmartStor's disks as a repository for sharing your iTunes Library, then do not configure that disk as a RAID. Format it with Disk Utility using the Erase tab. Mac OS Extended (Journaled) is the correct choice.
Connect it to your Time Capsule, then use AirPort Utility to configure access requirements for sharing it on your network. It should appear as a shared volume in the Finder, available to all your Macs as you thought it should.
I also thought maybe the extra HD space would be added to the existing Airport Disk. It isn't.
Correct. There is no way to do that. The only way to increase the capacity of a Time Capsule's hard disk is to replace the Time Capsule (or its disk, if you are amenable to disassembling it) with a larger capacity model.
If you also want to use the SmartStor as a RAID, that is another story, and you should probably attack that problem separately.

Where I can find AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.7.3

Support and download pages on apple's portal are giving me run around. Does anyone knows where one can download the AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.7.3 ??

No magic, but I had a real weird situation that I have no way to explain. So when I wanted to upgrade using the airport utility which logically should pull 7.7.1 first and then later 7.7.3, neither would work. I restored to factory defaults in the mena time of this original posting, however pull down menu was not showing 7.7.1 rather it was still displaying 7.6.4, hence why I was so eager to get 7.7.3 binary and do manual upgrade. AS I found the code, before I went about manual process I went into my ~/Library/Applications Support/Apple/AirPort directory to check the version.xml file and voila it showed how I do have 7.7.1 running and installed way back , so then I proceeded the manual process I described above and it worked. You are correct definitely because 7.7.1 was already there, but to for me unknown reason it is not showing on the Airport Extreme and in the drop meny I explained/described, however definitely there and clearly reason I was able to do manual upgrade. In the light of my question and wasted exchanges with the previous poster I didn't describe this part because it was irrelevant as I was only asking how I can get the code. If I had time to deal with the bigger issue here I would ask Apple, ok why my utility was not pulling 7.7.1 or 7.7.3 and why I had to do all of this to finish simple process that should in reality happen in matter of minutes (I do not have check auto weekly for the code not do I like or trust that feature i.e. don't like auto upgrades...I like to see upgrades done, ppl use it, not report issues and then I do my upgrades). Hope this clarifies it further.
Editing /augmenting my response with a comment - I was even contemplating to complain to apple and reseller I got my device year + ago to possibly replace the unit, but now that it all worked out I am happy.

Airport Extreme -Dynamic Global Hostname-

Is somebody using the "Use Dynamic Global Hostname" ( under Internet/Internet Options ) with "No-Ip.com" ?
I learned that DynDNS doesn't supprt this so I am wondering if No-Ip does.
Thanks.

I was wondering if DynDNS supported this because I have used No-Ip and it apparently does not. Or at least it is an undocumented feature if it does. No-Ip does have an updater application that you run on your computer which will update the ip address on their site. This is fine for most uses.
What I have gleaned from searching is that DynDNS did support using that setting until Apple removed wide-area Bonjour from the Airport Utility software interface. However the latest version still includes the settings. So I was thinking that perhaps it would still work for the purpose of updating your dns. One thing I have noticed is that some posts here suggest the user and password are of the DynDNS account itself, whereas on the DynDNS site I have seen a support document which suggests that you need to provide a Transaction Signature. Something which has to be created from your account on their site.

How do I share my DS4600 USB on Airport Base Station?

It's true I'm not the most Mac savvy, but everything I've read seems to indicates this is plug & play, but so far not for me.
I have a SmartStor DS4600 (by Promise Technologies). It's set for RAID 0, just recently formatted with "Journaled HFS+".
So, it's definitely an Apple partition.
I plug it into the USB port on the back of the Airport Base Station (2nd Generation)(running version 7.6.3).
According to documentation, I should just see the volume for the DAS show up in my Finder, but I don't. Only if I plug it in to a USB port on the actual computer. (MacBook Pro, OS 10.8.3)
I do see my Airport in Finder, and I do have a volume called "Data" that I can access... but no other disks. I also thought maybe the extra HD space would be added to the existing Airport Disk. It isn't.
Sort of at a loss, and I can't find any documentation that explains how to troubleshoot.
The ultimate goal is to use the DS4600 to hold my iTunes library. I doubt that information helps, but it couldn't hurt.

How can I monitor my monthly data usage for all 3 computers in my house? I have an Airport base station and it seems there should be software to monitor it from that point rather than monitoring the usage for each computer and then adding it up.

Why can't I download this update AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.6.4

I have version 6.3.1 for an Airport Extreme and I was not able to download this update AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.6.4 Why what is the problem ?
Running OS X .7.5 Lion on a Mac Pro 1,1 software update will not find it either.

Hello,
Would you minds sharing what you did to be able to dowload the 7.6.4 firmware update? Greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

How To use MacBook Pro as airport base station?

I am trying to set up my MacBook Pro as an airport base station to share my Internet connection. I am running OSX 10.7.2. I have checked Internet Sharing, and checked "Share your connection using "Internet" to computers using: ______________." There are five options, but "Airport" is not one of them. Has this panel changed in Lion? So how do I share the connection?

Now how do I set up my laptop to be a wifi base station so I can access the net with my iPad?
Tried searching for a how-to here on Apple's site, got around 500 hits that had nothing to do with setting up a powerbook as a wifi base station. Seriously, Apple, this is worse than worthless, it's highly frustrating. You need to fix your support search.
And after you follow the directions in the link provided by JimHdk, you can get yourself a wireless router. Using a wireless router will eliminate the need to have your Macbook pro present and powered up every time you want to connect your iPad to the Internet via wifi. Just because your Macbook Pro can act as a router does not mean it should or that you have to use it as such. A router is specifically designed to do what you want to do.

HT1218 I recently updated from O.S. 10.6 to Mountain Lion and had additional memory installed. Now I can't get my wireless printer to print wirelessly. I went to Airport utilities as suggested above, but it says it can't locate any airport base station.

I just updated from OS 10.6 to Mountain Lion. My HPC4780 wireless all-in-one will not print wirelessly, even though it indicates it is getting a wireless signal. I followd the "airport base station firmware updates" suggestions, but my computer can't detect an airport base station, even though I am looking at it, and the light is green like it is supposed to be. The printer works if I connect it, but won't print wirelessly. Any ideas? I am trying to learn Mountain Lion's ins and outs.

How can i use an airport base station and multiple airport expresses with U-verse and still use wireless tv boxes?

I just got uverse, and when I put my Airport Base Station in Bridge mode I lose access to the 4 airport express stations I have. Can anyone tell me how to turn off the u-verse wireless, set up a network with all the apple stations and still have wireless u-verse tv boxes work? Thanks!

Can I relocate the airport base station to downstairs and connect it to the Sawtooth there for receiving wireless from the Verizon router and broadcast further to its wireless network?
Sorry but no the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) will not wirelessly connect to the network provided by the Verizon FiOS router.
What you could do is get another AEBS, an AX, or a Time Capsule and place that downstairs. Then use that device to wirelessly connect to the wireless network provided by your current AEBS. If your current AEBS is not 802.11n capable then you would need to use WDS to make this happen. One bad thing about WDS is that each WDS link cuts your affective wireless bandwidth in half.
