How do i log on to air port extreme with a pc

how do i log on to airport extreme with a pc

Can you explain what your mean by "Log on to airport extreme" ?
If you just want to join the network so you can surf the Internet, get mail, etc., you would join the network just like you would with any type of Windows computer.
If you mean how to log onto the airport extreme so you can change the settings and administer the network, then you would need Airport Utility for Windows...

HT3546 How do I set up my air port extreme to do port forwarding? Running 10.7.4 I have a IP camera on my local wireless net work that I want to use from my iPhone 4s and other computers.

How do I set up my air port extreme to do port forwarding? Running 10.7.4 I have a IP camera on my local wireless net work that I want to use from my iPhone 4s and other computers.

In most cable systems, the router you have will plug into your modem and just work automatically. A NAT (Network Address Translation) router takes your external IP and hands out LAN (Local Area Network) based IPs. All of the devices you are working with right now should handle the change automatically unless you've changed from the default automatic configuration.
The problem with your wireless end of this is that the iPhone is not yet 802.11n, only 802.11g. Because that router is not dual band, all of your wifi devices will be forced to slow down to 802.11g speeds. This won't matter much for each device that's connecting to the internet, as your bottleneck is still going to be there. Where you will see slowdowns is device to device connections, like transferring data between the devices.

My mac won't automatically log on to air port extreme

my imac wont log on to airport extreme automatically

Open Startup Disk preferences. Be sure your startup disk is selected. If not select it then click on Restart. At the chime press and hold down the SHIFT key which will force a Safe Mode startup. This takes quite a bit longer than the normal startup. After it has completed restart the computer normally. See if this helps. If not, then do the following:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Can I use my old AIr Port Extreme with my new Mac Pro with Lion installed? It has worked well with the G-4 that I'm replacing.

I'm smarter now. It worked fine.

Slow Air Port Connection with Macbook

I have an unusual problem with using my Air Port Extreme with my wireless router. When connected with my wireless router, my internet connections are extremely slow. Other devices in the house work fine with my router (PCs, iPod, WII, etc.) My Air Port works fine with other wireless routers. The wireless router is connected to a cable modem and when I connect directly to the modem with an Ethernet cable (bypass the wireless router), all works fine. The problem only seems to be with my Macbook and my router. Safari and Firefox are affected, although Safari seems to run much slower than Firefox. Any ideas???

Sounds like it is not getting a great WiFi conneciton. Streaming video is not tolorant of anyting other than a perfect connection. You need a newer WiFi routner to support streaming video. If you have one that supports the N standard then I would try resetting your Wifi router.

How to get telnet to work on Air-port Extreme

Hello...
Iam a beginner, and need your help.
How do I open at port at my Air-port Extreme. I need to log on to a NAS with a program PyTTy. Im told to use telnet 13131.
Can anyone help me making settings so telnet will work?
Thank you very much.

Sinding, Welcome to the discussion area!
Opening a port is only necessary if you are out on the internet somewhere and you want to access something on the connected to an AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).
What is the NAS connected to? What is your computer connected to when trying to access the NAS? If they are both connected directly to the AEBS (wirelessly or via Ethernet) there is no need to open any ports.

HT4522 Sounds fine but how do I add partitions in air port utility

Sounds fine but how do I add partitions in air port utility

It is possible to partition the drive, but you have to physically pull the hard drive from the Time Capsule and place it in a separate enclosure for the formatting operation, then reinstall the drive again back in the Time Capsule.
Unfortunately, in addition to a lot of work, this will void the warranty on the Time Capsule.
It is possible to create one or more disk images on the Time Capsule using Disk Utility.
While a disk image is not technically a "partition" in the normal sense, it will allow you to specify and reserve a given amount of space on the drive for the image or images that you create.

How do i identify what devices are connected to 101, 102, etc on my air port extreme?

How do i identify what devices are connected to 101, 102, etc on my air port extreme?

Depending on whether a device is connecting using Ethernet or wireless, you need to know the Ethernet ID or AirPort ID of the device. That is the number that is associated with the IP address that is displayed in AirPort Utility.
For example, if you have a Mac....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock) and open Network
Click on AirPort , then click Advanced at the lower right
The AirPort ID of the Mac is displayed at the bottom of the window
For the Ethernet ID, click on Ethernet, then click Advanced, then click the Ethernet tab
The Ethernet ID is displayed at the top of the window
On an iPhone.....
Tap the Settings icon, tap General, tap About, then scan down to locate Wi-Fi Address, also known as the AirPort ID.

Air Port Extrem: How to switch on / off automatically time based ?

I like to have my Air Port Extreme switched off during night. How can I switch on at 6am and switch off at 11pm ?
Horst

The AirPorts do not have a feature to control power-on/power-off the base station itself, although, you can control access to it based on time. For what you are looking for, you may want to consider using a timer which you can plug the AirPort into.

How to turn on encryption in air port utility

how to turn on encrytion in air port utility for air port extreme.the instruction say to go to airport utility to turn it on but I can't see how.

To enable wireless encryption using version 6.x of the AirPort Utility, just do the following:
AirPort Utility > Select the base station > Edit > Wireless tab > Wireless Security > Select the security type; I would recommend WPA2 Personal, and then, enter the desired password in both the Wireless Password & Verify Password boxes.

Time capsule 1st generation - extension with air port extreme

My parents use a time capsule (1st generation) as wireless lan device. As they run a boarding house they wish to provide free internet access to all of their guests (in all rooms). Therefore I bought an air port extreme station to extend the network as this product now (finally) includes the option »guest network«.
The question is the following: *Should I keep the time capsule as basic device connected to the modem and use the air port extreme as extension or do you recommend to set it up vice versa?*
I checked the range of the time capsule: It can be used in already in the first floor but not in the second anymore.
I am really unsure how I should approach this topic and I hope more expirienced users can provide some help to this issue. Maybe you can also give me some security advice. In order to protect kids from misusing this new possiblity I was thinking of using opendns to block certain websites. Maybe there are also betters ways of doing this?

Need a bit more info.
Now this is what happens when I plug it in:
Plug it into power?? The main router?? Sorry I am unclear what you are plugging it into.
It sounds like you have not done the setup.
The TC should be in bridge and plugged into the current modem router you have.. and powered on full time.
If you cannot access it via the utility, I strongly suggest you buy the apple usb to ethernet dongle.. which helps air people no end.. or use any other computer that has a real ethernet port.
Otherwise set to factory and start over. (this will not do anything to what you already have on the disk).
Hold in reset and power on the TC.. wait about 10sec until the front led rapidly flashes. .then you can connect the computer.. and do the setup.. choose bridge in the Network section of the utility and update the TC.
Then you can plug it into the main router and access it and internet at the same time.. either by TC wireless or the main modem wireless.
Please note. .Gen1 TC is only going to last very little time.. it is already well past the average lifespan.. many died at 2years.. most gone by 4years.. plan on storing nothing important on it.

Help needed setting up IP Cameras for remote access using Air Port Extreme

Does anyone know how to access IP Cams remotely and open the ports on the Air Port Extreme using a PC? I have several iPhone Apps I can use but I cannot get the ports opened and on a PC it seems less intuitive than the MAC directions.

That manual page is not fully correct. There is written:
Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port value(s)>
Public TCP Port(s): <enter the appropriate TCP port value(s)>
Private IP Address: <enter the reserved IP address of the host device (from step 1)>
Private UDP Port(s): <enter the same Public UDP Ports or your choice>
Private TCP Port(s): <enter the same Public TCP Ports or your choice>
But it should be:
Public UDP Port(s): <enter unique UDP Ports of your choice>
Public TCP Port(s): <enter unique TCP Ports of your choice>
Private IP Address: <enter the reserved IP address of the host device (from step 1)>
Private UDP Port(s): <enter the UDP Ports used by your device>
Private TCP Port(s): <enter the TCP Ports used by your device>
Make sure you use the same ports in the private settings as you have defined in your IP camera. Normally a camera will use port 80 by default, so use 80 here.
The Public ports must all be unique. If you have not defined a port 80 here, you can also use 80. This will fail however when using multiple cameras. I for instance have 5 IP cameras and use the public ports 8451, 8452, 8453 etc.

Wps HP printer to air port extreme for imac and mac air

Just purchased a HP C310c p/c/s/p/web . it has wps protection. air port extreme has wpa. how do i proceed?

The AirPorts do not directly support WPS. Instead, you would need to configure your HP printer for either a WPA or WPA2 protected network depending on how you have already setup wireless security on your AirPort Extreme. You should be able to find a setting via the printer's control panel to allow you do so.

Inability to Make use of Air Port Extreme

I'm a new Mac Book user who purchased an Air Port Extreme card side-by-side with my Mac Book in hopes that I would be able to use the card to extend my wireless range for the purposes of use at University.
I have had my Mac Book at home for 3 more days than the Air Port Extreme card, as it arrived via a different shipping company, and have thus far been loving the seamlesness of my internet connectivity. Today, the Air Port Extreme card arrived, and being inexperienced with computers as I am, I assumed there would be a place on the Mac Book itself to plug it in. However, discovering the fact that I was so obviously wrong, I did some exploration in the user manual and found out that if one ordered the card with their lap top, it was apparently installed. So, my first question is:
Do I have a physical use for this Air Port Extreme card with my Mac Book, or perhaps have I ordered it under the false assumption that I'd be able to use it with my Mac Book?
Furthermore, I went on to install the Air Port Extreme software packaged with the card on to the computer, and now have Air Port (Extreme) 4.2 on my laptop. However, when I attempt to use the set up client, I encounter the following:
"In order to use the AirPort Setup Assistant your AirPort card must be enabled and AirPort needs to be turned on and set to use DHCP. Click OK if you would like to change these settings, or Skip if you would like to configure AirPort Base Stations using ethernet."
Furthermore, when I click OK, the following comes up:
"There was an error communicating with your AirPort card. Please make sure it is installed properly and try the AirPort Setup Assistant again."
I went through the install and reset process, and it seems as if I'm being told I haven't done enough installation or set up to make use of the Air Port Extreme internet connection.
Can someone give some help as to how to circumvent this problem? Is there a physical use for the Air Port Extreme card I'm ignorantly missing? Somewhere to plug it in? Have I ordered it under a false assumption I could use it for my Mac Book? Or is it a matter of tweaking my network preferences?

Hello Eli Cyment. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
I have had my Mac Book at home for 3 more days than the Air Port Extreme card, as it arrived via a different shipping company, and have thus far been loving the seamlesness of my internet connectivity. Today, the Air Port Extreme card arrived, and being inexperienced with computers as I am, I assumed there would be a place on the Mac Book itself to plug it in.
All of the new MacBooks come with an AirPort Extreme card built-in so, unfortunately, ordering the card was unnecessary.
Do I have a physical use for this Air Port Extreme card with my Mac Book, or perhaps have I ordered it under the false assumption that I'd be able to use it with my Mac Book?
No, and Yes.
"In order to use the AirPort Setup Assistant your AirPort card must be enabled and AirPort needs to be turned on and set to use DHCP. Click OK if you would like to change these settings, or Skip if you would like to configure AirPort Base Stations using ethernet."
This is basically telling you that the AirPort Setup Assistant required that the AirPort card be enabled in order to use it to setup an AirPort base station. Do you currently have and are using an AirPort base station for your Internet access?
You should also have either the "AirPort Admin Utility" and/or the "AirPort Utility" (note the missing word "Admin") in your \Applications\Utilities folder. Which one(s) do you have?

Multicast (IGMP) in new air port extreme??

multicast (IGMP) in new air port extreme??

You can get to IGMP settings going to AirPort utility. In network tab there are extended network options tab then enable IGMP tracking (or something like this, I don't know how it named in english version)
Ed.
But! If you enable this option, this won't get multicast to you.
You still won't connect to multicast streams on 224.0.0.0-224.0.0.255
