Hola:
Ante todo buenos dias, os cuento mi problema:
Tengo una impresora gran formato HP 111 Tray (con bandeja) enchufada a un router Airport Extreme de Apple de 2ª generacion, ambos funcionando correctamente y con las ultimas actualizaciones de firmware, el caso es que al abrir el asistente BOnjour para imprimir en red a la hora de seleccionar la impresora no aparece entre las opciones disponibles, a pesar de reconocerla. Al darle a examinar para que utilize los datos de Información sobre la instalación (.inf) que me he bajado de la pagina, Bonjour se queda colgado siempre
He probado desde dos ordenadores diferentes conectados a la red y nada
Alguien sabe como puedo solucionarlo.
La impresora se conecta con un USB al router de Apple
Muchas gracias de antemano

What model and firmware is the 2TB TC?
What firmware is the AE?
Does the AE get good signal from the TC in its current location?
Signal can only be extended that is received intact.
Is it extending on 5ghz? As I remember it a Gen2 AE is only single band, although you can choose either 2.4ghz or 5ghz.
I am fairly sure you are going to tell me your TC is AC model..
I would do a couple of things..
1. Fix the wireless name, make it short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
2. Fix the wireless channel for 2.4ghz so it is not going to jump around.
3. Get real results from the AE in its current location for signal strength.. this is really only possible on v5 utility. And that is a double pain with Mavericks because you cannot use it.
Apple have removed all the useful diagnostics from the airport utility. There is next to nothing left. So you need to use the computer and its diagnostics to find signal levels in the location.

  • How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme? My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured" and my AirPort tool on my PC will not permit me to add my new Airport Extreme network (no network names to choose from)

    How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
    I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
    I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
    I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
    I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
    My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
    I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
    My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?
    Sigve

    Hi
    Thanks for Swift reply.
    Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
    I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
    router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
    always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
    mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
    to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
    Are the A1088 now useless?
    The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
    Please advise
    Regards
    Sigve

  • Can I use the Ethernet Port for a computer when it is also used as a wireless network with an Airport Extreme as the access point for the wireless network

    Can I use the Ethernet Port  of the A1264 Airport Express to connect to the Ethernet port of a computer that does not have wireless capability when the Airport Express is also used on a wireless network with an Airport Extreme 5th generation as the access point for the network?
    I have AE 5th gen
    looking to buy (from ebay) the AEX A1264
    Various computers, printers and hubs for the network
    Is this possible to do?

    Bob, Thanks for the info. I have read different articles that said yes, but I wanted to make sure before I commit to buy. I have an older A1084 which I could not use the Ethernet port. I know at one point I was able to when I was on 10.4. Now that I am on an Intel processor and 10.8 I am going to have to upgrade some of my Apple wireless hardware.
    Thanks Again.

  • Can I use a USB drive with the Airport extreme (not the new one) for Time Machine?

    I thought I heard that using USB drive for Time Machine over wifi will work with the new, tall Airport Extreme, but not with the previous model, which I have. Anybody know for sure?
    thanks.

    It is not recommended.. Apple says it doesn't work.. for some people it does for others it is unreliable.. do you really want unreliable backups.

  • How to connect a pc via Ethernet to an Airport Extreme

    For about a year I have had an Airport Extreme running my iBook laptop on wifi and the iMac on Ethernet. I also have an IBM Thinkpad (T/P) running Windows 2000 which I wanted to connect via Ethernet cable to the AE and get on the internet to use various ham radio applications written for peecee's only. So far I have not been able to get the T/P to connect to the web, trying every way to get the thing to connect. The T/P is a second hand unit from work and I have no manual for it. There is also little documentation in the AE booklet concerning Ethernet and non-Mac gear. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I can make this work, or another website that may have more specific info?
    Message was edited by: bob.c

    You are absolutely right about nothing with Windows being easy..... The ethernet cable is plugged in and I went to Network Connections and followed the wizard. Now I have a small icon on the right side of the bottom bar, looks like two computer screens but only one is green. A right click on it says the local area network is connected and sending 100 Mbps but receiving zero. If I go to Tools/Internet options, I can go thru the Internet Connection wizard for setting up a LAN. One of the pages asks to configure the proxy settings and has two choices: automatic discovery or "Use automatic configuration script" with a box labeled "Address". I don't know what to put in this address but have tried the IP address and the router address: no joy.There is also a check box for Manual Proxy server and I have tried both Yes and No....again, no joy. It's as though the T/P sees the internet doorway but can't bring anything back thru the door! Any further ideas sure would help. Thanks!

  • How to connect a Time Capsule to an existing Airport Extreme?

    I have an Airport Extreme connected to my broadband internet modem. This Airport Extreme is also connected to my audio system to be used by iTunes.
    Recently I brougth my Time Capsule from another location to be included in the Airport Extreme network. I want to continue using Time Machine on the Time Capsule, and iTunes on the Airport Extreme.
    I could get this to work, by connecting the Time Capsule to my modem, and setting it up to extend an existing network (the Airport Extreme network). Airport Extreme and Time Capsule are situated next to each other. However, performance of Time Machine was horrible, far too slow. If I connect my MacBook to the Time Capsule by an ethernet cable, it does not work.
    When I set up the Time Capsule to create another wireless network, performance of Time Machine is okay. I cannot use iTunes on the Airport Extreme in that case. I have to switch networks for that.
    I'm sure it should be possible to have both an Airport Extreme and a Time Capsule in one network, use iTunes on the Extreme, and Time Machine on the Time Capsule. But I do not know how it should be arranged.
    Can anyone solve this problem?
    Greetings from Holland, Koen

    +What surprises me is that with setting 1 (TC joining AX) the Time Capsule has an option to extend the range of the network being joined.+
    Yes, but it will only "extend" if you have a newer version of the AirPort Express, the 802.11"n" version. If you have an older "b/g" version of the AirPort Express, you can set the Time Capsule to "extend", but it won't and you'll have problems.
    +With setting 2 (AX joining TC) the Airport Express does not seem to have this option.+
    This probably confirms that you have an older "b/g" version of the AirPort Express. It does not have the "extend" feature.
    +Could it be this option (which I did not switch off in my earlier experiments) which gave me such terribly bad transfer rates to my Time Capsule harddisk?+
    That's probably the reason since the older version of the AirPort Express cannot be configured to "extend".

  • Extend my wired Airport Extreme (5th Gen) with a 2nd Wired Airport Extreme (also 5th Gen)

    I have a 5th Generation Airport Extreme in my house hard wired directly from my fiber optic provider
    Then I have that 5th Generation Airport Extreme hard wired directly to my Desktop Computer in a separate building in my back yard (using an Ethernet Cable run through an underground conduit).
    Using that setup, I DO get Wi-Fi for my iPhone 4S & iPad 3 in that separate building in my back yard, but it is sometimes so weak, it really is not useable.
    To improve the Wi-Fi signal for my iPhone 4S & iPad 3, I plan on adding a 2nd 5th Generation Airport Extreme in the separate building in my back yard.
    I will disconnect the Ethernet Cable that is currently plugged directly into my Desktop computer & plug it into the 2nd Airport Extreme.
    Then, I will use a short Ethernet Cable to directly connect my Desktop Computer to the 2nd Airport Extreme.
    The desktop computer is an older Dell Dimension 9200 running Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3
    With this set-up, will the strong Wi-Fi signal I now get in my house from the 1st Airport Extreme NOT be reduced?
    And since the separate building is only 300 square feet, I assume the Wi-Fi signal there will also be as strong with the 2nd Airport Extreme being so close to everything?
    Could someone point me to SPECIFIC instructions on how to CORRECTLY set this up so that the 2nd Airport Extreme will EXTEND my home network?

    So, I should unplug the 1st Airport Extreme from the outlet before doing anything?
    Yes.
    Since the 2 Airport Extremes will be in 2 separate locations, which do I plug into the outlet first?
    I would suggest plugging the one in the house first, then the second one in the backyard building. Be sure to connect the Ethernet coming from the first into the second before power-on either base station.
    Could I connect the Ethernet both to the 2nd Airport Extreme & then to the desktop, then plug in the current Airport Extreme in the house, then run out & plug in the 2nd Airport Extreme in the separate building?
    The key is to leave everything powered-off; connect the Ethernet cables, and then, start by powering up the house unit, then the backyard unit, and then, the PC. Make sense?
    P.S. I have the Version 5.5.3 of Airport Utility for Windows (using Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3)
           There does NOT seem to be a later version than that.
           That worked great for the installation of the 1st Airport Extreme several months ago, so I shouldn't have any problems, should I?
    There is a later version (5.6.1) for Windows, but required Windows 7 to run on. Since you can already administer the 1st 5th gen Extreme with the version you have now, you shouldn't have any issues continuing to use it for the second unit.

  • What needs to be done to avoid WIFI drop-offs with Apple AirPort Extreme Base station with Extended Wifi

    Hi there,
    can anybody please advise me what needs to be done to avoid WIFI drop-offs every half an hour or 1 hours.
    I use voip phoe calls a lot using my WIFI, However my AirPort WIFI connection drops-off while I am in the middle of WIFI VOIP calls.  This is causing significant disturbance in my family.
    Please assist.
    In details, I have extended my WIFI range using 2 Apple Airport Extreme Base Station.
    Main Base is - A1408 9 (5th Gen),  and I have extended my WIFI in my L shape house by connecting another Apple AiPort A1354 ( 4th Gen) with AA1408.
    Note1:
    > when I am close to A1408 my iPhone4 connected with A1408 automatically
    > When I am close ot A1354 , my iPhone4 connected with A1354 automatically.
    Note2: these drop-offs never occurred when I had only 1 Apple AirPort Extreme Base station WIFI
    I think, this Auto switching causing the slight drop outs in my Wifi when I am on the VOIP call.
    Do you think that something is going wrong with my Apple AirPort Wifi extended?
    Much appreciated

    To help eliminate drop-offs you need to ensure that your extended network is operating at its peak bandwidth performance. Base station placement is critical in an extended network. Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details.

  • How to move podcasts from iTunes to iPod...nano 2nd gen with iTunes 8.2.1,

    ...that don't have the little blue dot indicating that they've not been listened to? These podcasts aren't sync'ed to iPod bec iPod thinks that they have been listed to and they haven't. How to 'restore' these podcasts to their original 'unheard' status? The solution appears to manually manage podcasts, but I couldn't follow directions which I think were intended for iTunes 9 --such as find the Source and go from there (no "Source" on my iTunes).

    You can also change your settings from iTunes under the 'podcasts' tab of your ipod. If you set it to sync all episodes instead of all unplayed episodes it should work just fine.
    If you wanted to pick which podcasts sync but don't want to manually manage, you could also create a smart playlist that chooses all 'checked' podcasts and sync that playlist instead. Then only the podcasts you check will be synced, regardless of whether or not they've been played.

  • Trying to extend the WLAN range by adding an additional Airport Extreme second gen with Ethernet as backchannel.

    Hi,
    I'm trying to extend the coverage of my home WLAN by adding an additional airport express. I want to use Ethernet as the back channel but whatever I do this ends up in a situation where the WLAN dies completely. I have been able to extend the range by using WLAN to WLAN extension but this reduced the bandwidth a lot.
    I have an VDSL modem and uses a airport express as access router. with this unit operating by iteself everything works fine.
    It is when I add a second airport express (both second gen) that I get in trouble.
    Any idea of what goes wrong?

    It is best to set up the extra AE to create a wireless network. You should use the same name (SSID) as you did when setting up the first one. Also use the same password and encryption.
    Put the network channel selection on automatic or select different channels for both networks.

  • Extending an Airport Extreme (6th Gen) network with older Airport Express models

    I just purchased the latest Airport Extreme (6th Gen) base station to be my main wifi router.  I have two airport express models that I used in the past to extend my network with my (very) old retired Airport Extreme (2nd Gen): the 2nd Gen model A1264 (you plug into the wall directly) - I've had it for several years, and the newest 3rd Gen model A1362 (small square that lies on a desk or table) - I just purchaed a couple of months ago.
    My question is - will extending my network with either of these Airport Express models diminish my overall network speed (Especially the older model)? 
    I don't have any AC capable clients yet - so everything is running on the "n" band - and the older Express is an "n" model, but I just have this (perhaps irrational) fear that attaching older routers will slow everything down.
    Any thoughts or suggestions?
    Thanks!

    will extending my network with either of these Airport Express models diminish my overall network speed (Especially the older model)?
    The A1264 model will be able to extend only one band of the new dual band AirPort Extreme. Normally, the A1264 will extend the 2.4 GHz band since it is stronger than the 5 GHz signal.
    The A1392 will be able to extend both bands since it is also a dual band model, providing that it is located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from the new AirPort Extreme.
    Here, I am assuming that you are asking about extending wirelessly.
    You might want to keep in mind that extending wirelessly always involves compromises and loss of bandwidth. The main reason for this is that an extending device can only "extend" the quality of signal that it receives.
    The wireless signal from the new AirPort Exterme will slow down and lose strength the further that it moves away from the main AirPort. So, the extending device gets a slower, weaker signal to extend. The result is signficantly slower wireless performance in the extended areas.
    The way to solve this is connect the extending AirPorts to the main AirPort using a permanent wired Ethernet connection.  There is no signal loss in a wire, so the extending AirPort receives a full bandwidth signal to broadcast. The result is higher and more uniform speed on the entire network.

  • Will my airport extreme 2nd generation work with docsis 3.0 cable modems?

    Will my airport extreme 2nd Gen work with docsis 3.0 cable modems?

    RRoger, everything is working fine.
    So, what is the actual problem here?  You are now wondering if the Vonage can handle the speed from the modem? Is that the "problem" after all this discussion?
    now I am wondering if my current setup will allow me to get docsis 3.0 speeds.
    What speed is your Internet provider delivering to you?
    The AirPort Express uses 100 Mbps Ethernet ports, so it will handle up to 100 Mbps. We have already told you that.
    Vonage likely does the same. The answer is almost certainly "yes" .......both the Vonage and AirPort will handle the speed from the modem.
    If you want to double check this, please provide the model number of the Vonage,  and we will try to look up the specifications for the device. If you have documentation there with specifications for the Vonage device, check to see if the Ethernet ports are listed as 10/100. This is standard with almost all devices, with some of them handling even higher speeds 10/100/1000.
    Chances are, your network will handle a lot more speed than your service provider is supplying to you. So, the "choke" point on your network may very well be your service provider and modem......not the Vonage and AirPort.

  • How do I use existing TM backup with upgraded Airport Extreme?

    I replaced my old Airport Extreme with a dual-band Airport Extreme. I was previously using an external drive connected to the old AE for Time Machine backups. I now have everything set up, I can see the drive on the new AE in the Finder and select it in Time Machine preferences, but it doesn't show "Oldest Backup" "Latest Backup" information and I fear it's going to try to create a new backup when it runs. How can I get it to use and add to the existing backup?

    No, it won't show that until a backup is done. See #B3 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of the +Time Machine+ forum).
    and I fear it's going to try to create a new backup when it runs. How can I get it to use and add to the existing backup?
    It should just do an incremental backup.

    But, you need to know, backing-up that way is "iffy" and +*not supported by Apple.+* See [Using Time Machine with an Airport Extreme Air Disk|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Airport.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).

  • How do I connect airport extreme to seagate hard drive using windows

    How do I connect airport extreme to seagate hard drive using windows?

    First the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) cannot share out an external HDD attached to its USB port unless it is formatted in either HFS+ or FAT16/32. It will not work if the HDD is formatted in either NTFS or ExFAT.
    If the HDD is formatted properly, when you access the AEBS with the AirPort Utility, does the HDD show up properly on the Disks tab of the utility?
    If it does, then you would access the HDD as any other network share, using the following format: //servername/sharename. In the case of the AirPort Disk (a HDD attached to the USB port of either an Extreme or Time Capsule), the "servername" would be the Extreme's Base Station Name, and the "sharename" would be the volumename of the HDD.
