How to install utility or manage Airport extreme base from Win server 2003

I hope that everybody is doing well.
I am currently studying Server Administration and Maintenance. I am running Win server 2003 and soon to use Win server 2008, provided by the school several months ago. I am trying to install the utility for my airport extreme base in the server that I have at home to no avail. I will appreciated if somebody can help me. My options are limited I cannot buy another wireless router and I really need to do this for my studies. My server does connect to the base by the Ethernet but not I cannot manage the router in the server a major problem in the class that starts today. I will really appreciate if somebody can help to solve this issue which may be the other viable option because I cannot buy another computer I truly hope there is another option that does not include having to purchase another router I love my airport extreme base ;-D

In finder, go to - Mac HD, Library, Preferences - drag the folder 'SystemConfiguration' into the trash
Restart.
Evidently, there were some corrupt files in there which, in my case, made my AP utility sporadically lose both my airport devices. Trashing that folder and the files within, and restarting automatically creates a new fresh system configurations folder. The AP Utility immediately found my hardware with this fix, but only time will tell if this was root cause and be a long-term fix.
Best of luck.

  • How to add NAS to existing Airport Extreme Base Station Network...

    Hi! I have a Airport Express network (DSL provided via a DSL modem) that is connected to the PC via ethernet, iMac 333 via Wireless adapter, and Powerbook via wireless card. I am bursting at the seams with components!!
    I have the printer set up via the AE.
    I would like to add a NAS to the works. (Just to see if it can frustrate me even more! )
    How exactly would I hook this up? Any suggestions? Has anyone done this? Have a favorite NAS device you can recommend? We are looking to install this for a centralized place to store all our music, photos, movies, etc. We have TONS of digital media to store and it is clogging up our respective hard drives!
    Thanks in advance for the help!!

    It is unclear... Do you have an AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) or AirPort Express (AX)?
    If you have an AEBS then you should have this configuration:
    DSL modem<->[WAN] AEBS [LAN]<->PC
    If that is your current setup, you would need to modify it by adding an Ethernet switch (or hub) so that it looks like this:
    DSL modem<->[WAN] AEBS [LAN]<->switch<-+->PC
    .......................................|->NAS

  • HT4259 How do I set up an Airport Extreme Base Station (v. 7.6.1) to allow wireless network extension?

    I have an Airport Extreme Base station (purchased in 2009) and an Airport Express base station (purchased in 2011 - the model that plugs directly into the electrical outlet) (both version 7.6.1 according to the Airport Utility info).  I want to use the Airport Express to extend my wireless network.  Using Airport utility setup I have a software option on the Airport Express to set it up to extend the network but I do not have an option on the Airport Extreme wireless setup screen that I can check to allow my wireless network to be extended. 
    All of the documentation I can find on Apple Support states that I should have an option I can check to allow the wireless network to be extended while in the wireles setup section for the Airport Extreme in Airport Utility; but, that check option isn't there.  Is this a case of my Airport Extreme base station being too old to offer that option?  Incidentally, when I try to select the extend wireless network option on the Airport Express from the Airport Utility wireless setup menu I get an error message (no details - just an error message).  The same Airport Express sets up fine if I select join a network (not what I want to do).  Am I just dealing with outdated equipment or does anyone have a suggestion?  Thanks.

    Close AirPort Utility if it is open.
    Temporarily, move the Express to the same general area as your AirPort Extreme and power it up and wait a minute.
    Hold in the reset button on the Express for 9-10 seconds and then release. Give the Express a full minute to restart to a slow, blinking amber light.
    Click the AirPort icon at the top of the Mac's screen and wait a few seconds for a listing of New AirPort Base Station to appear
    Click on AirPort Express just below that and AirPort Utility will automatically open
    Wait a minute while AirPort Utility analyzes the network and announces that the Express will be configured to "Extend" the AirPort Extreme network.
    Enter a device name for the AirPort Express and click Next
    Wait another minute to allow the configuration to occur.
    When you see the Setup Complete message, click Done.
    Now move the Express to a location that is approximately half the distance from the AirPort Extreme and the general area that needs more wireless coverage
    Power up the Express and you are all set.  Trash those old instructions.

  • How to use in italy an airport extreme base bought in the states?

    I have received as a gift an Airport Extreme base bought in the States and it doesn't work well. In few words it happens that the connection with the modem is discontinue. Maybe it's because it was built to be used in an "american" environment. Is there someone that can help me to understand if an US base cannot be used in Europe or what can I do to set up correctly the base? Thx a lot. Massimo
    Product: Airport Extreme
    Version: 7.7.3
    Modem: ADB Broadband DA2200

    You will simply plug the Extreme into the main router by ethernet.
    Setup the Extreme to bridge mode.
    Whatever the airport utility chooses which can be wrong.. simply press edit when it is finished.
    Change the Network setup to bridge.
    And for wireless I recommend you select a manual channel for 5ghz.. because the US model is set to North America and does not have any settings for Europe. You need to set the AE to something that overlaps.
    See the WLAN wiki and the chart for 5ghz.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels
    2.4ghz won't be a problem.. US is a subset of Europe.. but 5ghz are markedly different.
    Apple provide no way to change regions.

  • New 10.3.9 install on Pismo G3, Airport Extreme Base Station Error Network

    My 10.3.9 Pismo laptop G3 with built in firewire ports worked perfect on my Airport Extreme Base Station — I just Erased and reinstalled 10.3.9 (it was working before I Erased this morning) and now my Original Airport card can't join my wireless network:
    *"There was an error Joining the Selected Network"*
    I zapped Pram, reset power manager successfully (date reverted).
    I accessed the AEBS by a 10.6.3 Mac Pro and checked the Equivalent Password "WPA Password: ####PW###"
    Radio Mode selected: 80211n (80211b/g compatible).
    APBS version current: 7.4.2
    G3 sees my network as expected.
    The APEBS hasn't changed (except for the recent update).
    I restarted the AEBS.
    Still get the error...HELP!
    I saw the exact problem on several archived threads, but no one gave a solution or explained the problem (and I'm going blind here).
    Again, for the past two years it was working fine with 10.3.9, it broke this morning after I erased and reinstalled 10.3.9.
    10.3.9 is the only software loaded on this laptop.

    If you just bought it I would recommend calling Apple, they can help you set it up.
    Also you should consider getting a high speed Internet connection. They are very inexpensive these days and would make your Internet experience much more enjoyable. Where you live I would think you have a choice of DSL (available from most telephone companies) or Cable, which would be the quickest but also more money too.

  • How to install Oracle 9i (9.2.0.2) in Windows Server 2003 x64 - Intel Xeon

    I have tried to install Oracle 9i (9.2.0.2) in Windows Server 2003 x64 Enterprise Edition with Intel Xeon (EM64T) processors.
    When I run setup.exe I get an error: "The image file C:\Documents and settings\administrator.SERVERNAME\my documents\92021 win64_disk1\setup.exe is valid, but is for a machine type other than the current machine".
    I have to install Oracle 9i in that server but I can't run the installation. Is there a way to solve this problem, is there a patch that can solve this? Anyone know something about this problem?
    Thanks a lot!!!
    I'm desperated!!

    Hi,
    reply to my own question:
    In the docs provided with the downloads for Oracle Database Server 9i x64, I found that this version requires either
    - Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition for 64-Bit Itanium 2 Systems
    or
    - Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition for 64-Bit Itanium 2 Systems
    So I guess, the only X64 platform being supported under Windows Server 2003 (both Datacenter / Enterprise Editions) is Itanium CPUs ...
    ... though this is not (!!!) clearly stated in the download link (other/newer versions are listed more precisely - I guess it's a matter of an old link: no Intel Xeon / AMD Opterons were available (???) when Oracle 9i database server was published).
    So I'll give it a try with 10g database server ;-)))

  • How to install both solution manager and ECC Development on same server

    Hi All,
    Can anyone help me how to install Solution Manager and ECC Development on same server and also whether SLD is required? if yes, then how to setup.
    Pls let me know.
    Regards,
    Karthik

    Hi Karthik,
    I try to answer you message, my answer may not be sufficient for you.
    Install SAP Solution Manager and ECC development as separate systems sharing the same server. So each system will get it's own system id and installation number.
    Verify sizing of both systems.
    SLD is not mandatory for a SAP Solution Manager. If a SLD already exist in your System Landscape, you can connect SMSY (System Landscape) in transaction SMSY_SETUP with a SLD. Information on System will then be retrieved from SLD, rather via an RFC.
    Best regards,

  • How much is the mbps of AirPort Extreme Base?

    Hi.
    I can't find this information on Apple Store, and on the internet... So anyone knows how much is the mbps of Airport?
    THanks.

    d b i? I am not familiar with that term.
    20 dB is the nominal radio output power, if that is what you ask. This really means very little since the power of all wireless devices is limited by law. Everyone runs their routers at 100%.

  • How do I set up an Airport Extreme Base Station ("Snow") for use as fax (on

    I'm on a PowerMac G4 Digital Audio version without a built-in modem. I already have a Linksys wireless network set up between my Mac and PC laptop. So... I don't want to use the wireless networking on the Airport...
    I just want to configure the Airport Base Station to use the built in 56K modem so that I can fax directly off the Mac. I did that on my old computer that had a built in modem, but I need to know how to configure this G4 and Base Station modem to perform this task.
    Please help me connect the right wires (does the G4 connect to the base station with USB?). Then the power cord, and an RJ11 line from the phone to the airport base...
    And what software (the used airport I bought doesn't have a software disc).
    Thanks for any help!

    Saxparilla, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Sorry but the modem inside the AirPort base station (ABS) has NO ability to FAX at all.

  • Why does my Airport Extreme Base Station keep appearing as a Shared device?

    After installing 10.5 my Airport Extreme Base Station keeps appearing with a Windows PC icon under the SHARED list in the Finder, and I don't have a hard drive attached. Does anyone know why it's appearing, and how I can make it go away?

    Even more weird in my case, I have the Airport Extreme show up twice under Shared. One shows an icon of the actual Airport Extreme which is the one that has the hard drive attached and that works fine. The second is named Airport-Extreme and has an icon like its a PC. lol Not sure what's going on here but if you ask me the first one should be there because that makes sense, but I have no idea why the second one is displayed. Must be some sort of bug.

  • How do you upload firmware to Airport extreme with the following message: This version of AirPort Utility requires this AirPort Extreme use firmware version 7.3.1 or later. Use AirPort Utility 5.6 to update this base station. I'm using airport utility 6.0

    The airport extreme at my parent's house has not had its firmware update in some time and it keeps dropping the internet connection and needing to be reset.
    I went to update firmware and opened up airport utilities (I'm running airport 6.0 on Mountain Lion, 10.7.4).  Everytime I open the airport utility I get the following message: "
    This version of AirPort Utility requires this AirPort Extreme use firmware version 7.3.1 or later. Use AirPort Utility 5.6 to update this base station. AirPort Utility 5.6 is available at AirPort Service and Support.
    I've followed the link and tried to update firmwares but none are available and the print says that airport utility will look to see if firmware are available and load them as necessary when prompted by user.
    One link said the only way to solve this problem is open up Airport Utility 5.6. I tried to do this, but 5.6 is not supported on Mountain Lion and couldn't be opened up.
    I'm getting the exact same message on my other computer, a Mac Air.
    So basically, can't download new firmware and am stuck with a ****** airport extreme that needs to keep being reset, a factory reset, in order to use the internet, but then continues to give me the same message.
    Thanks!

    See this article for instructions on how to install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Lion on Mountain Lion:

  • How can I get Airport Admin Utility to Locate My Extreme Base Station?

    In an effort to repair some network connection problems I was having with my ISP (or so I thought), I reset my Airport Extreme Base station today. I have been unable to get it back to normal since. I'm currently connected to my ISP through an Ethernet connection directly from my modum to my iBookG4. Now, when I try to re-established the old network connections with my Airport Extreme, I cannt get the system to recognize a base station. When I use the Airport Admin Utility, the window pops up and *** me to select a base station, but there are none in the window. When I rescan, nothing comes up. The airport setuup utility has been no help either. Any ideas how to get my base station back? Thanks!

    Hi, Tesserax:
    Thanks so much for your reply. I tried the direct connection, as suggested in a previous message I saw on this board. Didn't work for some reason. Lucky for me, one of my neighbors works in the tech department of a nearby Apple Store. Last night he was able to get the base station working again. I wish I could share how he did it on this message board, but it was beyond my modest understanding. Again, thanks for taking the time to reply!
    Best, Kevin
