I am trying to stop my Xbox from connecting to my Airport extreme base station and only connect to my airport express extender.  Anyone have any ideas?

I have an aiport extreme base station in my living room and an airport express in my bedroom extending the network.  For some reason my xbox along with some other devices always connects to the extreme base station in the living room which has a very low signal.  Is there a way to setup a seperate network for my express extender so that I can connect only certain devices?  HELP

You would probably want your Express to join the network if an extender isn't required. Reset to factory settings and join the network.
If you do want your Express as an extender run an Ethernet cable between the Express and the Verizon router and set the Express up to be in bridge mode, with the same WiFi network name and password as your Verizon router.

  • I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1.  Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

    My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
    The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
    Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

    telling me to buy a new router is NOT a solution.
    And why not? Apple is selling these things like BigMacs. They can't make enough of them. You've been suffering since May because you refuse to get a decent router.
    Can you imagine if a company that makes a refrigerator told me that I needed to upgrade my electrical system to rectify a problem with their device? What kind of response IS that?!?!
    What if the problem with their device is that it requires a new-fangled "grounded" outlet and your circa 1890 house doesn't have grounded outlets. Would you refuse to purchase a $ 25 adapter on principle?

    The Apple update Firmware for my Airport Extreme Base Station does not update for some reason? Help?
    Additionally, I have an older version Airport Express that does not update with the newer Airport Utility Version 6.3 and asks me to download 5.6 to update? Is this worth it?
    Thanks

    The netgear is not going to work very well.. and not at all unless it is universal wireless extender.. you cannot use WDS method.
    If it does support universal wireless then make sure the airport uses a rational SMB compatible wireless name.. not an apple name which is 35 characters long with spaces and illegal characters like apostrophe.
    So nice AE name.. AEwifi and actually while you are trying.. fruitlessly to do this.. use AE24ghz and AE5ghz (so different names on the different bands)
    Assuming your AE is gen3 or greater.
    You should also fix the wireless channel at least for 2.4ghz since the netgear is probably only going to repeat 2.4ghz so use channel 11, as a trial.
    And use no wireless security as a test.. if that works.. then use WPA1 & 2.. as often old equipment using WPA2 is not compatible.
    If it fails with simple name.. fixed channel and no security. Sorry it is not compatible at all.. it happens.
    If your AE is G wireless or earlier model.. really the time has come for replacement.
    If your Express is G wireless model it is not supported.. and is too old to bother with expect I guess if you want to run audio to a speaker.
    You must use older 5.6 utility to do this.. so do you have a computer running older OS.. up to Mountain Lion it is easy to install with a bit of manipulation.. later is much harder .. or windows computer anywhere or available to you.

    2. restart the ipad by holding down the on and home button and use the slider
    3. update the firmware of the router

  • Airport Extreme Base Station and xBox wireless

    We have 2 macs with Airport Extreme Base Station connecting to Cable modem for internet connection.
    Recently bought an xBox with a USB wireless adaptor. When xBox is connected to the wireless network, internet connection of other computers dropped out and no longer can use internet until xBox is disconnected from the wireless network. It is the same problem even other computers are connected to Base Station with Ethernet cable.
    Any settings in Airport Utility might fix this problem ?

    We didn't have any problem before using the xBox wireless.
    There are 2 Macs (iMac 20" & Macbook Pro 15") and they're connected to the Base Station via wireless.
    The cable modem is Motorola Surfboard SB5100i and there is no login required from ISP for internet connection. Yes, the modem is connected to the WAN port of the Base Station.
    With the Clients computer network settings, we are using DHCP. We have also tried with static IP and didn't make any differences.
    I thought it could be the compatibility issue between the xBox wireless adaptor and the Base Station and on the other hand, the wireless protocols (802.11N/g/b) are industry standard and it doesn't matter who made them, they should work together.
    The only idea that I have now is to try with other brand of wireless router and it might be a quick solution for this problem.
    thanks,
    David

  • Hi I have an airport extreme base station And trying to dial on windows

    Ok I have a airport extreme base station the one with dial-up modem and power over ethernet. Well i have people PC as my provider, and can dial the connection on my macbook by using internet connect. but on my hp i can not. I have tried to create a connection type on it and cant figure out how to have it connect like on internet connect. tho i can go the admin utility and click automatically connect and click OK and it dials the connection to disconnect i re click it and click OK and it disconnects but i do not like it that way. So what am i to do and is their a internet connect app for windows. I have also contacted apple and hp and that did not help. Feedback welcome and is needed.

    I have an Apple Trackpad that shows that it is connected with Bluetooth but it is not responding. I've tried restarting the computer, disconnecting and reconnecting and also turning the trackpad on and off but it simply does not respond. Does anyone have any idea on what is going on here?

    There are reports of similar behavour but generally it is due to battery connections.   Is the indicator light working steadily or does it blink or even not function.   Here is the Apple document dealing with some of the problems.
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1544/en_US/Magic_Trackpad_UG.pdf
    Is your machine within the guarantee period or under Apple care.   If so, return it to any apple retailer for examination and possible replacement.

  • Airport Extreme Base Station and XBOX 360 Compatability?

    Hi There,
    I'm looking for some advice please.
    I have just ordered a AEBS as I have been told that the Belkin N1 wireless router that I bought last week is incompatable with my macbook. I have read reports that the AEBS doesn't connect with the XBOX 360. These reports were from a while ago. Does anybody know if this has been sorted on the versions shipping now?
    Thanks

    What you mean the router is incompatible? Is supposed to work regardless of the brand.Apple uses "n" at the 5ghz frequency (ala "a").Everybody else uses 2.4 ghz.and still you can connect because is b and g frequencies.
    I don't know if the n speeds can be accomplished at 2.4 ghz.A friend has alinksys draft n router and I connected fine.
    Regarding theABSE & 360: if it is the "n" one you can use it with xbox live I'm using it plugged to the base station.I resetted my network settings in the 360 and it worked after that(before I couldn't go online).

  • Airport Extreme Base Station and Xbox 360

    Can someone please help me figure out why every time I turn on my xbox 360 I have to sign-out of my profile and run the connection test? It always works fine and I can sign in to Xbox Live after that, it just requires me to go through two extra steps whereas it usually signs right in. HELP! Thanks in advance.

    so, what did you do to fix it?
    simply for the fact that if I hook up my old linksys (which I don't want to HAVE to do) I no longer experience the problem, I can't agree that the problem is the 360. I could agree that neither MS nor Apple designed one with the other in mind and that could be the problem I guess, if no one can help, guess I will just hook that nasty linksys back up.

  • Why can I no longer print from my Windows XP computers to my Bonjour connected Canon printer thru an Airport Extreme Base Station (f/w 7.6.4, model A1301)?

    Something has changed recently and I haven't figured it out.  My 2 Windows XP computers are no longer able to print via Bonjour.  I have tried removing and reinstalling Bonjour.  Upgrading the firmware on the AIrport Extreme Base Station and comparing Port settings from an able to print Windows Vista laptop.  Port settings match and Bonjour says it sees the printer...but the communication is not happening between the computer and the networked printer, it times out and produces an error in the print que.  Both XP computers have no problem using the internet via the Base Station.  One is wired and one is wireless.  Thoughts?

    Sounds a bit like a problem being discussed in this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2651093&tstart=0
    I suspect some kind of update is at fault. Like you, my printer/base station setup had been working fine until recently.

    Thank you.

    How did you get a Lion OSX install disc? They don't exist. Do you mean the gray disks that came with your 2007 MacBook?
    If you mean the gray disks, try starting up with the "c" key held down.
    What version of OSX is on your MacBook now? Have you tried booting from the Recovery partition?

    Hi, Kenny. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    There are a couple things that I would recommend trying.  Try closing all open applications and power cycle the device.  Next, go through the section labeled Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in the second article below.  If the issue persists, try completely signing out of the iTunes Store on the iOS device and sign back in.  Be sure to test downloading an application after each step.

  • My Mac has suddenly stopped playing my DVDs including a DVD it played fine only 3 days ago. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong and how I could fix it? Thank you.

    My Mac has suddenly stopped playing my DVDs including a DVD it played fine only 3 days ago. I insert the DVD and wait for the player to start automatically but after 10 minutes, nothing is happening and it sounds like the disk has stopped spinning. I've now tried with four different DVDs (all store bought and so perfectly normal disks). The Mac doesn't eject the disk or anything it just doesn't seem to respond to it being there at all.
    My main confusion is why this suddenly happened today when it was perfectly fine last week.
    Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong and how I could fix it? Thank you.
