How can I get my AirPort to work with a newly purchased modem?

I have a new AirPort that I purchased and linked to an older modem.  I now have a new modem, a NetGear provided my AT&T.  How can I transfer the new modem to work with the AirPort as seamlessly as possible?  I spend hours attempting the other night, but grew frustrated when the AirPort never communicated with the new modem.  Please help!

Are you sure you are talking about replacing a modem? Modems are usually provided by your cable/DSL provider. So am I right in understanding you got a new modem installed by AT&T? If so, then you need to start by turning off the modem, the Airport router (what model, exactly?), and the computer. Wait one minute. The Airport router should be connected to the modem using an Ethernet cable. Now turn on in order:
Modem - wait for status lights to show communication with your ISP.
Airport - wait for the status light to start blinking amber.
Computer - open Network preferences and select the type of connection port: Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
Now at this point if the Airport device is still blinking amber, then open Airport Utility, click on the larger amber dot to find out what problem is being reported, then configure it to fix the issues.

  • How can I get my airport express work with Zyxel 2812HNU-F1?

    Hi,
    I previously had a Thompson Speedtouch router and my Airport expres worked just fine. But now my internetprovider give me a new router the Zyxel 2812HNU-F1 and my airport express doesn't work properly. I use an ethernetkabel to connect the airport express with my router. The lamp on the aiport express turns green, but I cannot normally open internetpages etc, and sometimes a webpage partially appears. If I connect my ethernetkabel in my MBP, the internetconnection just works normally.
    Do you know what I have to do to let my Aiport expres work with the Zyxel 2812? I already resetted the express and in the airport utility it doesn't show that there is a problem.
    Greets,
    Don

    Obviously my objective was different (just use the Airport Express as an Airplay speaker over wired ethernet only), but for my case I finally managed to fix it: In the Zyxel LAN configuration I've set the LAN port (4) to half-duplex and 10Mbit (only!) instead of "auto" and then streaming audio works flawlessly! This is just crazy stupid and is a Zyxel issue I'm sure. For now I'm happy!
    To make the Airport wired only: disconnect wire -> factory reset -> create new (wireless) network (plus settings) -> then Network Router Mode = Off (Bridge Mode) -> then Disable wireless -> Save settings -> only then connect ethernet cable

  • I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

    I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

    Will not work.  To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported.  The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

  • How can I get my ipod to work with itunes?

    When I connect my ipod classic into my new computer it seems that itunes does not recognize it. How can I get my ipod to work with itunes? I'm afraid to disconnect my ipod because the display is saying Do Not Disconnect.

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • How can I get elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?

    In the expert mode of Photoshop Elements 11, I can only work with 8 bits photos. How can I get Elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?

    No, you can still buy photoshop cs6 (perpetual license) if one doesn't want to subscribe to the cloud version (photoshop cc version 14)
    Either way is expensive compared to photoshop elements.

    How can I get Phillips Fidelio to work with ios7. It worked with the previous operating system

    Not sure if this is the same problem others are having, but I used to play music on my Philips Fidelio by opening the Music app on my ipad and clicking on the box with the triangle (which has now disappeared in the new OS). However, if you have the philips dockstudio app, the box still appears there and I was able to get my speakers working again.

  • How can I get my Iphone to work with UCONNECT?

    How can I get my iphone 4s running IO7.0.4 to work with my UCONNECT system in my 2013 Chrysler?
    I have talked to UCONNECT and the tekkie said "you will have to live with it because your phone is too advanced for our software and we do not have an update planned."  I prress the "connect" button on the steering wheel and tell the phone to call a person on mobile.  I says it cannot call "somebody else" as they do not have a mobile number.  But the person it says is not the person I said. 
    It is like it is not reading the phonebook correctly.

    Everything worked perfectly until I updated to IO 7.  Then it went out the window.  I cnnot be the only person with this problem and hopefully someone out there has overcome this problem.  If you just stop at the first NO we would still be flipping our phones open.

  • How can I get a spyder2pro to work with Lion? Color vision says that Rosetta isn't compatible with Lion.

    How can I get updated software so my spyder2pro works on my MacBook Pro?

    You can get in touch with the Developers and see if they intend to release a version in the future which won't require Rosetta. Rosetta has been dropped in Lion. They make it quite clear on their site that Rosetta is a requirement, so I wouldn't hold my breath. That leaves you the option of finding a similar program which will run on Lion, or return to Snow Leopard, if they have no plans to make changes to their program in the future.
    Good Luck

  • How can I get avi files to work with imovie08?

    Hi I bought a macbook last year and have loved creating imovie videos by simply using the video function on my digital camera. My daughter was born last year and we have a great collection of clips of her first 7 months. I'd now like to take things a step further and put together a wedding video.
    We had our wedding day filmed on a digital camcorder by a friend and he has given my 25MB of avi files which I would like to import into imovie and make into a video however I understand that this format isn't compatible. Is there a way of getting it to work and if so please can you tell me in very simple terms what I need to do to get the files to work with imovie? (I'm not very technical)
    Thanks
    Matt

    I do not know of a way to import .avi files directly into iMovie, and I am positive that this is not actually possible as iMovie only supports the importation of .mov, .mp4 (mpeg4) and .dv filetypes.
    What you could do is use a video converter (there are some good ones that are availible free, eg MPEG Streamclip (http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html)) to convert those avi movie files to either of the 3 video formats iMovie supports, then import them.
    MPEG Streamclip does sound a little complicated for you but it is the best I have found, any more questions just post them here.
