How do you connect AT&T uVerse to AirPort Extreme?

I have tried connecting a new AirPort Extreme to my existing AT&T uVerse internet but the flashing amber light never stops. I am somewhat tech savy but am hoping someone can give me a simple process to get it to work. Does anyone have experience doing this? Ideally I would like the AirPort Extreme to be the only router versus going through the AT&T 2 wire, 3800HGV-B device.

Power up the AirPort Extreme for a few minutes, then hold in the reset button firmly on the back of the AirPort Extreme for 10 seconds and then release. Allow a full minute for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking amber light.
The reset button is located just to the right of the AC power plug.
Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the four LAN <-> ports on the Uverse router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme
On the iPad home screen....
Tap Settings
Tap WiFi
Under the heading of Setup a new AirPort Base Station, tap on AirPort Extreme
The setup utility will open up and take a minute to analyze the network, then a screen that looks like this will appear with an icon of the AirPort Extreme
Type in a simple name that you want to call your wireless network
Type in a name for the AirPort Extreme that you want to use
Type in a password
Verify the password
Tap Next
The utility will setup things for you in a minute or two. When you see the message of Setup Complete, tap Done.
You should have a green light on the Airport Extreme, so you can select the wireless network that you named and enter the password to connect from your devices.

  • HT4262 How can I connect 6 computers simultaneously to Airport extreme?

    I have tried troubleshooting several ways and the some computers work and others don't. How can I connect 6 wireless computers to Airport Extreme?

    Matt
    Is it possible to speak on the phone?  The situation is so convoluted it might be easier to help me get back on track in person. When I first had this issue I got on an apple site that had a chat room in which I typed in my problem.  After several missives back and forth, the apple technician asked for my number and we spoke on the phone. The technician walked me through rebooting the actual airport plug (as opposed to the router box) and got me up and running. Do you know how I can relocate that chat site for technical support?
    Thanks

  • How far away can you connect to the internet from Airport Extreme (802.11n)

    How far can i take my Laptop away from Airport Extreme (802.11n) and still have internet connection

    According to:
    http://www.apple.com/au/airportexpress/
    They claim the Extreme has a 45m range:
    "Suppose you want to connect to the Internet with your PowerBook in an area that lies beyond the 45 metre range of your AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme Base Station"
    Will you be using all N devices? G?, B? or a combination?

  • Can you connect a USB drive to Airport Extreme or an Airport base for TM

    Would like to backup MacBooks in 2 different scenarios with Time Machine. One is a USB external drive attached to Airport Extreme and the other is doing the same with an Airport base. Will both work? Also, I have been partitioning the direct USB attached hard drives so that I have a Time Machine partion and a copy of the internal hard drive. This allows my kids to boot from the external drive and still work in case the internal drive has failed or becomes corrupted. So far we have experienced 3 internal drive failures, one during finals and this has saved them. Can you boot from an external drive copy of the internal drive if it is connected to either an Airport Extreme or Airport base?

    I am confused as on another site I saw that the Time Machine backup to Airport Extreme was working than broken by an update in 2008, then fixed again by another update in Oct. 2008. So is it officially supported or not. I cannot say that I am impressed with Apple's documentation and updates to what is supported and what is not.
    Kappy, I do not see the concern with partitioning a drive and then taking backups to one partition and having a Restore created copy of the hard drive in another. The drive is partitioned and that should keep one partition from overlaying the other. The windows world had used partioning successfully for many years. Apple does have a slick ability to boot from a copy of the OS which is on an external drive. It has saved my kids multiple times when something has gotten hosed up on the internal drive, including a Mac mini with a drive failure during dinal exams and two drive failures on a Macbook. It lets the kids access the internet and get theri work done albiet with a static copy of the OS taken some time in the past. My son was even able to copy to the external drive all of his documents, music and photos off the internal drive that would not boot. Of course he had not learned the value of Time Machine at that point.

  • How can I connect Acer (WinXpSP2) to Mac airport extreme?

    I cannot connect my ACER laptop using WinXP Sp2 to my Mac's Airport Extreme. I have set my System Preferences with a third party 13 character password. I did not make any changes to my Airport Admin Utility. I followed the steps laid out in the site: //www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/1011.html. I think I'm just probably missing one button to click or unclick. I have done the following to configure the Wireless properties on my ACER...so that the network authentication is selected at SHARED, the Data Encrytion is set at WEP; disable the IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network; and connect to wireless network manually. All this was recommended in the felix site and other help files but I cannot make the connection. Also, when the properties are set like I mention, for some reason ACER kicks everything to its default settings (WPA-PSK authentication, TKIP encryption, IEEE 802.1x authenication enabled....all I don't want)
    What am I doing wrong? I know that Window XP SP2 does not need the windows firmware to get access to my mac airport extreme.
    Help someone? PLEASSSE!
    Rose

    1, Change your airport wireless security from WEP (old fashion and not really that secure) to "WPA Personal".
    2, Set yourself a password, then update your airport.
    3, Delete your current wireless setting on your XP then do a new network search
    4, You should found your airport wireless network on your xp by now, click, to join the network and type in and confirm the password you just set on your airport's "wirless security".
    5. Done, you should be able to access the network now

  • How do I connect my HD to my Airport Extreme ?

    I have just set up my Airport Extreme, which is working fine on a PC. I bought a 500gb Lacie HD which is recognised in the AirPort Utilility however when I attempt to access the HD I get an error message saying the Network Path to the drive cannot be found. I have reformatted the HD using exFat but that didin't make any difference. Has nayone any ideas please ?

    There are a number of posts related to accessing/copying issues between Windows Vista / 7 and AirPort Disks. Two potential solutions being forwarded are: 1) Changing the LAN Manager authentication level, and/or 2) Disabling the Windows Search feature.
     To change the LAN Manager authentication level:
    From the Windows Vista / 7 desktop, click Start
    Search for: security
    Click 'Local Security Policy'
    Goto Local Policies > Security Options
    Under Policy, double-click 'Network security: LAN Manager authentication level'
    Change level to: Send LM & NTLM responses
    Under Policy, double-click 'Network security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP based (including RPC) clients'
    De-select 'Require 128-bit encryption'
    Click OK
     To disable Windows Search:
    Start > Control Panel > Programs > Programs & Features
    On the right-hand side, click "Turn Windows features on/off"
    Scroll down, and de-select "Windows Search".
    Press OK, close all windows and restart.
     A third "solution," that has worked for me, is verify that both the AirPort base station and the Win7 PC are using the exact same Workgroup Name. In my case, I use "WORKGROUP" (without the quote marks) for this name. From the AirPort Utility, you would enter this value on the Disks > File Sharing tab. On Win7, Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System > Change Settings > Change > Workgroup

  • How do you block a specific port on airport extreme

    I'd like to prevent access to World of Warcraft during daylight hours so that my house squatter will actually do something productive during the day. Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    S. G.

    There isn't a direct way to block ports on the AirPort routers. One possible workaround is to use Port Mapping to direct a single or multiple ports to a 'unused' local IP address ... like 10.0.1.255 that would be above the default DHCP range of the base station. Be aware that this would 'block' these port for every user.
    To get an idea on how to set up port mapping, please check out the following AirPort User Tip.

  • How do you connect two Apple ID's?

    How do you connect two Apple ID's to one another?

    Yes. You can sync multipl iDevices on the same computer using the same Apple ID. You can each have different configurations of apps, books, music, etc. or have identical configurations. In this way, however, your common data - contacts, mail, calendar will be the same on both iDevices.
    The Apple ID doesn't distinguish one phone from another, only how the phone will sync to a computer. The Apple ID is how iTunes knows to which computer a phone syncs. And, the Apple ID determines who is the registered owner of downloaded and purchased items via iTunes.

  • How do you connect ipad 2 to itunes library using home sharing

    How do you connect the ipad 2 to the itunes library using home sharing so you can listen on your ipad 2? I've seen directions for the ipad which tell you how to setup home sharing then open ipod and touch library in the left column, but when I hit library, nothing happens. I'm assuming the ipad 2 has something different about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    PS, the OS is 4.3.3 (just got it but it's not on the os list)

    See iTunes 9- Understanding Home Sharing and iTunes- Troubleshooting Home Sharing.  Also, open iTunes, select iTunes Help from the Help menu and search for "home shar."

    To add to sig's reply, "calibrating" does not calibrate Lithiu-Ion batteries, it calibrates the charge reporting circuitry.  If you look at the effect of deep discharging Lithium-Ion batteries in the data from the independent test group, Battery University, you will see that doing so shortens the life of the battery significantly. It looks like an optimum balance between use and life is at a discharge level of 50%.
