How do I set up my Xfinity Gateway modem Wifi with my Airport using same IP address?  I need step by step instructions.

I want to use Xfinity Gateway modem WIFI with my Apple Airport, using same IP address.  Apple store says this will work. I need step by step instrucions on how to do this.
Thank you

I have had the AirPort for 5+ years.  Have had a Comcast modem for even longer.  My husband and I have iPads.  We can only get wifi connection within a very short range of our AirPort.  I noticed that Comcast/Xfinity was advertising their new Gateway modem with extended wireless wifi so I turned in my old modem to Comcast and picked up the new Gateway model.  After going through several issues with Comcast I tried to install my new modem and was told by Comcast that I cannot use both the Gateway modem and my Airport for WIFI, it's one or the other.  I went to the Apple store and asked the same question and was told that I can have both connected using the same IP address for both.  I am not very computer savy and need some basic, one step at a time instructions on how to add the Xfinity modem to my existing AirPort network for extending my WIFI.  I think I expained that correctly. 
The Comcast cable is connected to my Modem and then there is another connection between the modem and the AirPort via USB cord.
Is there somewhere on the AirPort/TimeCapsule device that tells me the exact model of my AirPort?
Thank you for any advice you can give me.

  • How do i set up my pre owned iphone 4 with my giffgaff sim card that was used in my iphone 3gs

    how do i set up my pre owned iphone 4 with my giffgaff sim card that i have been using in my iphone 3gs
    My 3Gs is on its last legs.... I've just bought a second hand iphone 4 which is unlocked......I put my giffgaff sim card in the new phone and it says activation required ......then it asks me for a passcode???  PLEASE HELP!!!! I have no idea what to do xx

    You need to connect the phone to iTunes and then try activating it from there and restoring it as new.
    If you have further problems and especially as the iPhone you have bought is second hand, it could be that it is not unlocked.  Are you sure that it is?  If not, then you'll need to speak to the person that you purchased it from.

    My wife and I share the same email address but have separate IPhones. We would like to have each phone individually on "find friends" but cannot do it via email route. How is it done?

    make seperate appleID's if you wish to be frinds or if you wish to facetime video chat and if you wish to not recieve the samme imessage msg's unless you turn it off
    you can still set both your iphones to use an email address even if both have different appleId's
    the appleID is a handle not a link to an email address

  • How to connect my sony blue ray play to wifi via my airport utility?

    how to connect my sony blue ray play to wifi via my airport utility?

    The airport utility has nothing whatever to do with the sony bluray player.
    The airport utility is to setup wireless in the airport.. once you setup wireless then you use the sony setup for wireless in the player as per its manual.
    Please do keep the wireless names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    As well as pure alphanumeric passwords if you want to do this successfully.

  • Since iOS6, whenever I send an iMessage to my wife, it sends the message to me too.  How do I stop this? My wife and I share the same email address.

    Since iOS6, whenever I send an iMessage to my wife, it sends the message to me too.  How do I stop this? My wife and I share the same email address.

    On at least one of the phones, go to Settings/ Messages/ Send & Receive and then tap the e-mail address to turn that option off.  That should force the iMessage to be sent to the unique phone numbers of the phones, not the e-mail address that is common between the phones.
    Or alternatively, create a new e-mail address for one of you and select that as the e-mail option to receive at on one of the phones instead of the shared e-mail.

    My HP 2355 won't show up in AirPrint? I have it plugged in via USB and set it up on my Mac mini with the airport express network. Any advice?

    Unless your HP printer is an AirPrint-ready device, just connecting it to the USB port of the AirPort Express base station will not make it so.
    On the other hand, connecting a non-AirPrint printer to the base station's USB port it can be shared out by the base station's print server. Please see the following Apple Support article for details.

  • HT201303 How do I set up my iPhone so that I have to enter my password each time I need to access my apple account? Previously my account name was always stored and I only had to enter my password each time but now it never asks for a password

    How can I set up my 4s so that when I need to access my apple account to either download an app, update an app or buy something then I need to just put in my password?  This is how my 3s worked but the 4 s seems to have stored all my details so I don't need to log in. My young son sometimes plays games and I dont want him to accidentally buy stuff. If I log out then each time I need to go back in I have to put in all my account info. Not just my password.
    Any ideas?

    Depending upon what version of iOS that you have on it then you might have a Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password setting on it - if you do then set it to 'Immediately'

    PowerBook G4 15 1.67GHz 10.4.2 512MB AirPort Extreme; iMac G4 20 1.25GHz Mac OS X (10.4.2)

    Ensure that the Airport base station is configured to not distribute IP addresses.
    On the iMac
    System Preferences > Sharing > Printer Sharing
    On the PowerBook
    Applications > Utilities > Printer Setup Utility
    Add Printer
    It may work with the HP driver (which you will need to install on the PowerBook)
    It may work with a third-party driver such as the HPIJS drivers or the Gimp-Print drivers, but this is not the case with all printers.
