How do I reconfigure my airport extreme?

I lost my internet connection today.  I still have wireless connection but no internet connection.  I can connect to the internet by being directly hard wired to the DSL modem but not via my airport extreme.  Any suggestions how I can get my internet connection back via airport extreme?

It's possible that your AirPort Extreme is broken.  What model is it?  If it is a model with several Ethernet ports, did you try them all?  Could you see a tiny green next to the Ethernet socket when a cable connected at the other end was plugged into it?
You might try resetting it as described in this document.  You'll then have to reconfigure it.

    how do I connect my airport extreme to windows 8.1

    Connect an Ethernet cable between the U-verse router's LAN port to the WAN (circle-of-dots) port on the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS). Since you will have two routers in series, you will want to reconfigure the AEBS as a bridge. (ref: AirPort Utility > Select the AEBS > Manual Setup > Internet > Internet Connection tab > Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode))

  • How do I reconfigure my Airport Express in client mode?

    My home uses an AT&T U-Verse wireless network to connect to the Internet.  I also have an Airport Express hooked to a USB HP Printer to create wireless access to the printer.  With a change in U-Verse service, AT&T replaced my network interface with a new box, connected that box to new port at the sub-station, a new wireless network name and a new wireless network password.  Now everything works except my "wireless" printer.  I suspect that the issue is that the Airport Express has the wrong network name and password, but cannot figure out how to change it.  My Airport Utility is version 6.3.1 and it does not find my Airport Express.  My Airport Express is an older one and I can find no model number on it anywhere.  How do I reconfigure my Airport Express.
    Previously when trying to install an Airport Extreme on my system, I proved with several long conversation with Apple support that it would not work with the U-Verse system.  I had to take the Airport Extreme back and use two USB hard drives for Tim capsule backups, one for each computer.

    AirPort Utility 6.3.1 will work with the AirPort Express A1264, so something else is amiss.
    Power up the AirPort Express for a few minutes, then hold in the reset button on the Express for 10-12 seconds and release. Allow a full minute for the Express to restart.
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click on Other WiFi Devices
    Click AirPort Express
    That should allow you to reconfigure the Express

  • How do I use my airport extreme with my FIOS router?

    How do I use my AirPort Extreme base station with my FIOS Router to extend my network?  I have hard disks connected to my AirPort Extreme and would lik to access them.

    Probably can't answer all your questions - but.... I use a Linksys (wired and wireless) router as my primary entry point for FIOS. I use a Time Capsule and an Airport Express as a common wireless connection. So I have two visibile wireless networks and use them both depending on where I am in the house. Both the TC and AEx can be seen either wirelessly or wired from the entire network. Note - the Linksys provides all the DHCP - you set the apple routers as "bridge mode."

  • How do i use the airport extreme to extend my wireless network

    How do i connected my airport extreme up to my existing network so that it can extend my wireless through out the house ??
    Can it be done wirelessly or do i need an ethernet cable thats about 10m ?
    Keith

    The AirPort Exteme can "extend" your existing wireless network (using wireless only) if it is being provided by another Apple router.
    If your current main router is not an Apple product, then you will need to plan to connect the AirPort Extreme to your router using an Ethernet cable.
    Post back for more information if needed.

  • How do i add my airport extreme to my DSL WIFI Modem to expand my network

    I have a DSL MODEM with WIFI. It replaced my Airport Extreme as a router.
    How can I use the Airport Extreme in conjunction to expand my wifi service through out my house.

    Ok, the Airport Utility Program NOW shows the globe, a green light next to the word internet
    below, there is a now a yellow triangle next to AirPort Extreme with an ! in it. """the messase to the right says
    Diveic Not Found:Airport Extremem was previously part of your net work Check that is still in range of you network
    (it is it's right next to the PK5000) it's plugged in. Forgetting this device removes it from this network."""
    AND NOW
    Bob, I can now see where I missed the fact that to do this the Airport had to be Wired_via ethernet,
    I was looking for it to be a boost wirelessly, not tethered.
    I’m not at liberty to modify the living space I am living in, holes and such and have cable run up exposed.
    Again, ignorance on my #1 status. This has been very informative but I do see where I can't accomplish what I wanted to do, have a booster in another room wirelessly.
    I think what I need to do is restore the Airport to factory setting and sit on it, not literally.
    I can't thank you enough for taking all this time with me. I trust you understand what I wanted and you did your best to provide.
    So I guess that's it for now.
    I'll look to you in the future, you really know your stuff
    All the best to you from MN

  • How do I connect my airport extreme to wifi as a repeater

    how do I connect my airport extreme to wifi as a repeater?

    Thanks for the info.
    Unfortunately, Apple has designed their routers to only extend or repeat the wireless signal from other Apple routers.
    It would be extremely unlikely that the AirPort Extreme would be able to extend or repeat a wireless signal from another manufacturer's router.
    I suppose that it could not hurt to try, but if the Extreme is still unopened, it might be a better idea to return the Extreme, get the information about the router at the neighbor's and then use a product from the same manufacurer that would be compatible to repeat or extend the wireless.

  • How do I setup my Airport Extreme so that I can extend the coverage of my existing AT&T wifi network?

    How do I setup my Airport Extreme so that I can extend the coverage of my existing AT&T wifi network?

    Start by establishing a permanent fixed Ethernet cable connection from one of the available LAN <-> ports on the ATT modem/router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme.
    Ethernet cabling can be run up to 300+ feet or 100 meters, so you should be able to locate the AirPort Extreme exactly where it will be needed to provide more wireless signal coverage.
    Configure the AirPort Extreme to "create" a wireless network using exactly the same wireless network name, same wireless security setting, and same wireless network password that the ATT wireless is using.
    The final step is to insure that the AirPort Extreme is configured to operate in Bridge Mode, so it will work correctly with the ATT modem/router.
    If you need more specific steps, we need to know what operating system you are using on your Mac or PC. If you have a Mac and do not know which operating system it is using.....click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen and then click About This Mac, and post back with the OS X version number that you see there.

  • How do I get my airport extreme to stop recycling? Using OSX 10.7.4, Airport Utility 6.1

    How do I get my Airport Extreme to stop recycling? I'm using OSX 10.7.4 and Airport Utility 6.1.

    The Airport Extreme is putting out the signal OK. Gan use my iPod no prob. The Mac goes from 'On' to 'looking for networks' back and forth all the time.
    As Apple has said the AirPort Extreme is functioning correctly if other devices can connect. You have a Mac issue, so that is really a question for the support area for your Mac.
    I suggest that you try one of these general areas, then pick out the specific model that you have:
    Desktop Computers             Notebooks

  • How do I configure my Airport Extreme to see the printer I have plugged into the USB port?

    How do I configure my Airport Extreme to see the printer I have plugged into the USB port?

    OK. The 6.0 version no longer has a printer configuration that I could find. You might try Printer Sharing in the Sharing preferences.
    I would also check the printer's user manual for help with the setup, and that failing check the manufacturer's website and/or tech support.

  • How do I access my airport extreme drives online

    how do I access my airport extreme drives over the internet?

    Here are the basic steps to share an AirPort Disk over the Internet.
    Start the AirPort Utility > Select the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn,) and then, note the IP address shown.
    Select Manual Setup.
    Verify that Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address is selected on the Internet > Internet Connection tab.
    Select Disks, and then, select File Sharing.
    Verify that both the "Enable file sharing" and "Share disks over WAN" options are enabled.
    Verify that Secure Shared Disks = With a disk password. (Recommended)
    Verify that AirPort Disks Guest Access = Not allowed. (Recommended)
    Select Advanced, and then, select the Port Mapping tab.
    Click the plus sign to add a new port mapping.
    For Service, select the "Personal File Sharing" option. (Note: This option would only allow Mac clients to access the AirPort Disks. If you want both Macs and PCs to connect, you would need to leave this field at its default value and enter the appropriate SMB ports to the mix of ports to be opened.)
    In the Public UDP Port(s) and Public TCP Port(s) boxes, type in a 4-digit port number (e.g., 8888) that you choose. In the Private IP Address box, type the internal IP address of your AEBSn that you wrote down in step 1. In the Private UDP Port(s) and Private TCP Port(s) boxes, type 548. Click Continue.
    In the Description box, type a descriptive name like "AirPort Disk File Sharing," and then, click Done.
    Click on Update.
    To connect to the shared AirPort Disk from a remote location using a Mac:
    From the Finder > Go > Connect to Server.
    Enter the DynDNS-provided Domain Name or Pubic (WAN-side) IP address of the AEBSn, followed by a colon and the Public port number that you choose in step 11 of the previous procedure. For example: afp://www.mydyndnsdomain.com:8888 or afp://123.456.789.123:8888
    Click Connect.
    You should be prompted for your user name and password. The user name can be anything you like; the password should be the Disk password for the AEBSn that you created in step 6 previously.
    Click Connect.

  • How do I add an Airport Extreme with Time Capsule to an existing non-Apple network?

    How do I add an Airport Extreme with Time Capsule to an existing non-Apple network?  I have an ISP provided wireless Router that has to remain as the base station.  I am able to join my 1/2TB Airport Extreme and Airport Express to the network, but I can't access/use Time Machine.

    One option would be to connect the Time Capsule (TC) to the ISP-provided wireless router by Ethernet. You can then configure the for a roaming network. Then, depending on what your goal is for the AirPort Express, you can either: 1) Add it to roaming network, 2) Configure the TC & the Express for an "extended" network, or 3) Configure the Express to "join" the roaming network for AirPlay.
