HT4199 libratone live set up using airport extreme

The instructions for setting up the Libratone live speakers to the router, asks that you press the WPS button but there is no WPS button on the Aiport Extreme. Therefore does anyone know how I set up the Libratone speaker using Airport Extreme?

It would be neat though, to be able to connect
wirelessly on my Dell WinXP laptop over this dial-up
connection at home, the few times I'm going to use
it. So I thought eBaying one of those nice "old"
hockey puck Airport Extremes with built-in 56k
modem.
That should work.
From what I understood, the AE doesn't have a
web-based configuration interface, like most
broadband routers have, but one needs to configure it
installing a software utility, right?
Correct
Being in a
Windows only environment, will I be able to configure
my Airport Extreme-to-be using the Windows software
on
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75422>
Yes.
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42forwindows.html
? Does anyone of you have any experience with this?
Yes
If so, could you reassure me that this is actually a
feasible idea?
Yes if does work.
Does the AE dial-in automatically whenever you're
generating traffic, by the way, or do you still have
to establish the connection manually?
You can configure it that way, but it is easier to use Jon Sevy's Java utility.
Jon Sevy has a Java Utility for this purpose.
You will need Java in order to run the utility

  • Network set up using airport extreme, time capsule and airport express

    I have searched for relevant answers but can only find different bits here and there.
    My set up is as follows:
    I have a Linksys wireless router running a stable wireless network for the other computer users in the house and wish to create an extended, additional network using airport extreme connected to the Linksys by ethernet to create the network and then time capsule close to my Mac Mini on my desktop and airport express at the other end of the house to try and extend the range of the network.
    I have been trying for 4 days to set this up but without success. I have tried all of the options mentioned in different posts, using WDS, extending a new network etc. I can get connection between the three devices but monitoring on iStumbler there appears to be little improvement in the strength of the signal, iStumbler also shows the time capsule dropping it's signal totally every 10 or so seconds for a few seconds and then I get a positive signal strength for another ten seconds or so.
    Can anyone help, it is driving me insane. I am a recent convert to apple computing and have been hugely impressed with all products until now. The claim that the set up of these wireless products is simple seems to be very exaggerated.
    I am happy to provide any relevant system or hardware information.
    Thanks in anticipation.

    I have an AirPort Extreme acting as a wireless base station, connected to a BT router by ethernet.
    Then the correct setting for Connection Sharing on the AirPort Extreme would be "Off (Bridge Mode)".
    If I set Connection Sharing to "Share a public IP address", I'm told that:  "The DCHP range you have entered conflicts with the WAN IP address of your Apple Wi-Fi base station"
    Exactly. You have two routers....The BT device and the AirPort Extreme in series with both of them trying to act as the "main" router when you configure the AirPort this way. That won't work.
    Only one can be the main router, and it must be the BT device in your setup. So, the AirPort Extreme....and any other AirPorts on your network must be setup to work in Bridge Mode to allow the network to operate correctly.

  • How do I set up my Airport Extreme to best use multiplayer games locally

    How do I set up my Airport Extreme to best use multiplayer games with my family. Everyone is located in the same house and uses the same router.
    I have tried a few games but have not  successfully connected  2 players

    That is a weird question, as your GAMES could be interpreted a hundred different ways. Are we talking about third party devices here or what?

  • Setting upp a used Airport extreme

    Hey
    Just got myself a used airport extreme, but cant seem to figure out how to set it up. I downloaded the Airport utilities 6.1 for OS X Lion, but the app cant find it. tried using the reset button, without any results. I would also like to dual plug it to my excisting router, which im pretty sure is a posibility. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
    if its any help, here is my Ethernet ID on the airport extreme: 0024369F 15BS

    Reset it with a "hard reset":
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
    Download and install AirPort Utility if you do not already have it:
    Lion: AirPort Utility 5.6.
    Leopard, Snow Leopard: AirPort Utility 5.5.3.
    Tiger: AirPort Utility 5.3.2
    Panther: AirPort 4.2
    There is a Windows version also.
    Launch AirPort Utility. It will lead you step by step.

  • HP Deskjet 3550 cannot print using Airport Extreme via USB connection on Windows 7 64 bits

    Product Name and Number: HP Deskjet 3550 Inkjet Printer
    Operating System installed: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bits
    Error message: None
    Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred: Setting up HP printer using Airport Utility to add a new printer and installed Bonjour Print Wizard.
    Problem: My printer is already set up using Airport Utility. When I print something, the printer doesn't do anything. Is there something I haven't done lately in order to get this printer working using my wifi router?
    Suggestion #1: Are the print jobs getting stuck in the print queue? You can check this by clicking on the printer icon in your task tray by the clock.
    Error Message #1: Yes, the print job got stuck in the print queue, but the moment, it disappeared from the print queue and the printer doesn't print at all. This is frustrating.
    Suggestion #2: Does the printer work as expected if you connect it directly to the PC via USB?
    Error Message #2: Yes, the printer works if I connect it directly to my PC via USB, but I don't understand why it wouldn't work with the wifi router, though.
    Suggestion #3: This has to do with the way the router handles the connection to the printer. I found another thread, regarding this issue, and it has some information that may help resolve it.
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/Print-Problem-Using -USB-Printer-on-Airp...
    If that does not help, I would recommend posting on the Apple forums, as they may have more expertise with the router's abilities:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/wireless/airport
    Error Message #3: After clicking on the first link that you posted, it was very helpful, but the printer couldn't print completely and somehow it would stop at the quarter of a paper. It looks incomplete when I took it out from my printer. It does that every time.

    UPDATE!
    Problem solved!  So this is just a followup in case someone else ever stumbles into these boards with the same or similar problems as mine, that is, trying to run an HP Deskjet D1500 series printer [mine's a D1520] on an Airport Extreme wifi router's USB port as a network printer [with the Airport Extreme controlled by an ancient G4 PowerMac Quicksilver currently running OS X 10.4.11).
    Although it probably SHOULDN'T matter, since this type of printer works fine with just the Tricolor cartridge as shipped when hooked up directly to a computer's USB port, on a hunch I got a black HP cartridge (that's a type 21, not type 22 as I had earlier said), slapped it in, tried a test page, and all's well.  So, we can call off the technoid hounds.  Everything running perfectly.
    I hope this message in a bottle may help someone else out there some day soon who may be scratching his or her head with a similar stumper.  And just to recap those important Windows printer settings, they are:
    * [Printer Properties--> Ports--> Add New Port...] "Standard TCP/IP Port"
    * [Configure Port] IP Address "10.0.1.1" and Port "9100"
    Best of luck!

  • I Have  "New" MBP (Mid 2009) and Would Like to Use Airport Extreme

    This might be a very basic question , but I do not know the answer so I came to some experts for help. I have a "new" MBP OS 10.6.4 SL. I received it about 1 month ago after the genius bar could not fix a 3 year-old MBP. At one time the Airport Extreme was hooked up when I first got the 3-year-old MBP, but I kept running into troubles with it so I purchased a Verizon MiFi2200.
    I have this new MBP, I still have the MiFi2200 from Verizon which I access via Airport. I would like to try the 3 year-old Airport Extreme again, but I am wondering if having the Verizon MiFi2200 will allow me to also have the Airport Extreme. Also, I am wondering if this Airport Extreme is too old for what is currently available (and if it is secure enough). I would need to get help from Applecare. I tried once, when I first started having trouble with it, and it was way beyond my ability. I think I made things worse and I hope I did not do any hardware damage. I tried to set it up, after having it disconnected for about 2 years, and I did not call applecare.
    So I am wondering if I can have the MiFi2200 installed by VZAccessManager (but turned off when I use the Airport Extreme) and the 3 year-old Airport Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi Base Station set-up at the same time. Also, is this model still OK to use (I really have no idea how long something like this Airport Extreme is good to use), and if I can use it, are there online instructions to set it up or would it be best to get Applecare's help. I would also like to know how I could find out if there have been any firmware updates or other updates for this Airport Extreme since it was last used (about 2 years ago)
    thanks in advance and I apologize if my terminology is not correct or too amateurish.

    OK, I am not following you exactly and I guess it is important to know what the existing set-up is like. Maybe you will understand my amateurish language. Before I moved in to this condo, the manager of the complex asked me if I need to use the ethernet ports in the rooms or will I be setting up a wireless connection. I said, for now I will be using the ethernet ports in the rooms of the condo. She said Ok, I will be up to your condo to put in a modem. (She could have said router or modem, I am not sure if there is a difference, but I do know the Airport Extreme is considered a router.) She opened this box that is on the wall while she said this is where the "T1" line comes into your condo, and T1 (I think I have the right term she used) is the fastest way to get around the internet. In the box in the wall is an electrical outlet (which the tiny blue modem (I will call this a modem because I am not sure what it is) is plugged into. In the back of the tiny blue modem are 5 ethernet ports and that is all, except for the power cord which connects to the side of the tiny blue modem. In the box, already screwed into place is a CAT5 ethernet strip, for lack of a better term that has 12 ethernet ports but only 4 are actually marked. I think the four that are marked are the ones that can be used, if I needed this many, but I am only using 3 and the ethernet cable goes from one of the ethernet ports on this CAT5 strip which is connected to the T1 line, and one of the 3 ethernet cables goes from the back of the tiny blue modem to one of the ethernet ports on this CAT5 strip (one that is marked as previously described) So I can hook up to the internet by using one of the 3 ethernet plugs in the various rooms of the condo or I can use the MiFi2200 from Verizon for a wireless connection. I have already told you why I prefer not to use the Verizon MiFi2200 and why I would like to set-up my Airport Extreme.
    As far as wanting to use the existing ethernet ports in the 3 rooms, I do not care about that unless the Airport Extreme does not work. The manager who initially hooked up the tiny blue modem said if I want a wireless connection I do not need the tiny blue modem. If I do want to use the ethernet ports in the rooms via an ethernet cable, I need the tiny blue modem. If this is tru or if I can have one and not the other, I really did not get a sense I could or could not have both a wireless and ethernet connections at the same time.
    Why would I want to plug the 3 or 4 ethernet cables that go from the tiny blue modem to the ethernet strip? The ethernet strip has about 10 ethernet ports, 3 of which are marked and I assume only those 3 can be used since there are only 3 actual ethernet ports in the walls in various room for connection.
    I know this is a different set-up but when I used the Airport Extreme before, I had a cable come in to my house from Comcast which was hooked up to a modem. One ethernet cable went from the modem to the back of the Airport Extreme which after Applecare helped me set up the Airport Extreme the whole house was wireless.
    In this condo, which is smaller than the house I had, why do I need all 3 ethernet cables to go from the CAT5 strip to the back of the Airport Extreme? Again, on the 12 port CAT5 strip, only 3 are labeled with some code, and those 3 go out to the wall ethernet ports.
    Are you getting ready to give up on me?

  • Can I create a unique subnetwork when extending a wireless network using Airport Extreme?

    My office building has an Airport Extreme to provide wifi to our individual suites.  I would like to create a sub-network using my Airport Extreme for my suite only that uses the wifi signal from our office building and provides internet to the computers (both wired and wireless) in my suite but have it protected so that other suites in my building can't see my computers.  Is this possible and how do I do it?  I have currently set up my Airport Extreme in wifi-mode "extending a previous wireless network" and have the router with its unique router name.  But once I extended the wireless network, I could not find the network name of my router, only the office name (the one I was extending).  The computers connected via ethernet to my Airport have internet access but none of my wireless computers see my airport name, it sees the office building network name.  I'm assuming they are connecting to my Airport since the signal level is much higher than before and it appears that my Airport is rebroadcasting the network name of my office building.  Is there a way to have my Airport broadcast its unique identifier for wifi, still connect to the internet via wifi signal to the Office building airport and maintain segregation between my computers and the rest of my office building?
    Also, when I use the Airport Utility on my Iphone, I see the internet -> the office airport extreme -> and then 2 different base stations connected in a Y.  Mine and my neighbors (who is probably doing the same thing as I am).  But there is a dotted line to my base station, does that mean I'm connected to the internet via my neighbor's airport?
    Any thoughts?

    I would like to create a sub-network using my Airport Extreme for my suite only that uses the wifi signal from our office building and provides internet to the computers (both wired and wireless) in my suite but have it protected so that other suites in my building can't see my computers.
    It is not possible to configure a single Apple AirPort router in this manner using wireless only, but it would be possible to do this with a single AirPort if you connect your AirPort Extreme to the "main" router using a wired Ethernet connection.
    As for wireless only....you could probably do what you want by using two Apple routers....an AirPort Express to join the wireless network and provide an Ethernet signal to the AirPort Extreme's WAN port. Then the AirPort Extreme could then be configured to provide a separate network using a different subnet.
    Users on the "main" network would not be able to "see" any devices on your "private" network and vice versa.
    I use the two router set up all the time at hotels that only provide a wireless signal. The first Express "joins" the wireless network and feeds an Ethernet signal to the second AirPort which is configured to "create a wireless network" in router mode.
    This way, I can connect multiple devices to my "private" network, but only pay the hotel for one connection since the hotel router only "sees" the AirPort Express that joins the network.

  • How do I use Airport Extreme to limit internet time for my kids?  His computer is hardwired to the modem.

    How do I use Airport Extreme to limit internet time for my kids?  His computer is hardwired to the modem.

    You can set up daily time limits for each computer that connects using wireless, but it is not possible to do this when a computer is connecting directly using a wired Ethernet connection.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility on your Mac and click Manual Setup
    Click the Access Control tab below the icons
    Select Timed Access
    For more details on this, click the Help menu at the top of the screen and enter the following phrase into the search box:
    Controlling access to your wireless network
    A more sophisticated approach would be to use a service provided by OpenDNS. From your computer, this would allow you to monitor web sites visited, and block any unsuitable sites. More info is here:

  • How can I set up an Airport Extreme as a router, in conjunction with my AT&T modem/router?

    I am trying to set up an Airport Extreme as my router, and I am currently using an AT&T modem/router combo. I am wondering what would be the easiest way to do this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the ATT modem/router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme. This cable must remain in place permanently.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility on your Mac
    Click on Other WiFi Devices
    Click on AirPort Extreme xxxxx
    The utility will take a moment to analyze the connection, then a screen similar to this will appear with your AirPort Extreme instead of an AirPort Express
    Type in a short simple name that you want to use for the wireless network
    Type in a device name for the AirPort Extreme
    Enter a password that will be used for both the AirPort Extreme and wireless network
    Verify the password
    Click Next
    The utility will setup everything for you. When the message of Setup Complete appears, click Done and close AirPort Utility.
    The AirPort Extreme wireless network is now available.

  • Problem setting up new airport extreme

    I've just picked up an airport extreme to upgrade my home wifi network. Currently I'm using a buffalo 54g box that works fine. For some reason I can't seet to get the AP extreme to recognize the DSL signal. Here is what I've done so far.
    I unplugged the DSL ethernet cable from the Buffalo and put it into the AP extreme and power it up. The light on airport is blinking amber. After running through the airport admin assistant and setting up the airport extreme (including the DSL connection information, etc) which the mac located without trouble, the AP extreme is rebooted but still just blinks amber. I plugged the ethernet cable directly into the mac and and access the internet without trouble. I plug it bak into the AP extreme and reboot it - still blinking amber. I rebooted the DSL modem - still blinking amber. The instructions recommend resetting the AP extreme so I reset it and then I ran through the set up again and still have the same problem.
    Any ideas or suggestions?
    Many thanks for your advice.

    Per chance, did you allow adequate time for a complete power recycle when switching network devices?
    Modem/Router Power ReCycling
    - Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, Internet Router, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
    - Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 30 minutes.
    - Power-on the Internet Router; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    - Power-on the computer(s)

  • I currently use Airport Extreme Wanting to extend using another apple airport express

    How to set up Airport Express when already using Airport Extreme to extend range.

    Extending the range of an 802.11n network
    AirPort Utility makes it simple to extend the range of an 802.11n network if you are connecting another 802.11n base station. Connecting two 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Stations greatly simplifies the WDS setup process.
    To extend the range of an 802.11n network:
    Open AirPort Utility and select the base station that will connect to the Internet.
    Choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open the configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    Click AirPort in the toolbar, and then click Wireless.
    Choose “Create a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then select the “Allow this network to be extended” checkbox.
    Next, select the base station that will extend this network, and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open its configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    Choose “Extend a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then choose the network you want to extend from the Network Name pop-up menu.
    Enter the network name and wireless password if necessary.
    Click Update to update the base station with new network settings.

  • Air disc on airport extreme wont work. I have just bought and set up an airport extreme, everything works but the air disc.

    Hi
    I just bought an airport extreme  and have replaced my previous airport express network with it in my house. I want to set up the air disc so all my computers, Macbook pro 2008, Macbook, 2010 and Mac mini 2010, can use my storage external storage drive collectively. I have been through the set up tutorial several times, and in the menu on the apple support intructions, where it says I should be able to check the box for share over a WAN, or something similar, I have a box saying share over internet with Bonjour? I have updated my airport utility, thinking that this may be the problem, but to no avail. I can only see my disc if I go to the manual set up on the airport extreme, and click on discs. I am very computer iliterate ( and a bad speller) hence I have macs as they are always almost plug and play. Can any one help me sort this out please.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    if you see the drive in the Airport section "drives" your half the way to success.
    In this section you should:
    enable sharing --> ON
    set security to airport extreme password
    hold password in keychain --> ON
    guest access to read/write
    share over WAN -> OFF
    share with bonjour over internet -> OFF
    Apply settings
    After that, the drive should show up in finder on your computers.

  • Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    If it "joined" my network is it extending the coverage of my wifi network ?
    Please review my previous answer in the post above......
    But, the Express does not  "extend" or "repeat" the wireless signal when it joins a network.  In other words, wireless devices cannot connect to the AirPort Express the way that you have it set up.
    If so can my Airport Extreme be set up to "join" my network and also extend the coverage of my network ?
    Again, please review my previous answer in the first reply above......
    The AirPort Extreme does not have this type of capability.
    If you have both an AirPort Extreme and an AirPort Express.....my suggestion....again, found above in a previous post.....
    It takes a minimum of two Apple routers to extend a signal using wireless.
    You could do this by connecting the AirPort Extreme to your cable router using a permanently installed Ethernet cable and then configuring the AirPort Extreme to "create a wireless network".
    Then add an AirPort Express in a location where it can pick up a strong wireless signal from the AirPort Extreme and configure the Express to "extend a wireless network".
    You would not use the wireless on your cable router at all, unless you wanted to reserve that network for guests or something similar.

  • I am trying to connect to directv using airport extreme

    I am having great difficulty connecting my directv wirelsss connection device to my apple airport extreme.  the directv wireless device will not accept my security code.  I had the directv technician over for 3 hours and we could not solve the problem.  Help!!!

    DirecTV wireless capabilities are quite limited for a modern product
    Make sure that the name of your AirPort Extreme wireless network contains no apostrophes, exclamation marks, asterisks, dollar signs, etc.  Use only regular lettters and numbers.
    For example, if the name of your wireless network is
    kikuum's wireless network
    DirecTV will never be able to connect. Change the name to something with only letters and numbers, no spaces, and no more than 20 characters. So, for example  you could use something like
    kikuumwireless
    You may also need to lower the security setting on your AirPort Extreme router from the default WPA2 Personal to WPA/WPA2 Personal
    Open AirPort Utility, click on the AirPort Extreme icon and click Edit
    Then click on the Wireless tab at the top of the window to access the settings page
    Click Update at the lower right to save your new settings
