IPv6 connectivity through AEBS to HE

Hi,
I have upgraded my AEBS to 7.5.2 and am trying to get IPv6 connectivity to HE. The HE tunnel configuration is :
IPv6 Tunnel Endpoints
Server IPv4 address: 66.220.18.42
Server IPv6 address: 2001:470:c:c77::1/64
Client IPv4 address: 71.139.20.48
Client IPv6 address: 2001:470:c:c77::2/64
Available DNS Resolvers
Anycasted IPv6 Caching Nameserver: 2001:470:20::2
Anycasted IPv4 Caching Nameserver: 74.82.42.42
Routed IPv6 Prefixes and rDNS Delegations
Routed /48: 2001:470:f2e6::/48
Routed /64: 2001:470:d:c77::/64
AEBS V6 setup is:
IPv6 mode = Tunnel
Block incoming ipv6 connections
config ipv6 = manually
remote ipv4 addr. = 66.220.18.42
wan ipv6 addr. = 2001:470:c:c77::2
ipv6 default route = 2001:470:c:c77::1
lan ipv6 addr. = 2001:470:d:c77::1
Imac is set to get v6 addr automatically and the config is:

does anyone have any ideas on what is not working and why ?

Looks like an AT&T PPPOE connection - the addresses of those change all of the time. Make sure that the "Client IPv4 address" is correct at the HE side.
You can update it with a URL, see http://fcartegnie.free.fr/articles/Hurricane%27s%20IPv6%20TunnelBroker%20Endpoin t%20ipv4%20address%20updater.html for details one endpoint updateing using just a URL.

No Cisco VPN Connection through AEBS

I have an HP nc8430 for work and had no problem connecting through a my home cable modem, AEBS and Cisco VPN tunnel to our secure network at work. Inexplicably the wireless connection via the VPN has stopped working. The PC can connect to the Internet directly through the AEBS as long as the VPN is not connected and can directly connect from the cable modem and VPN using an ethernet cable (wired connection). Does anyone have any suggestions? The IT "gurus" at work have been of little help.

Hi Fred!
I suggest posting your question in a more appropriate forum such as the AirPort for Windows forum found here <http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1014>. This fourm is dedicated to Mac and Windows compatibility issues.
On a side note, while it may be popular to call the folks in the IT world "gurus" while rolling your eyes, keep in mind that just because they can't help you doesn't mean they don't know their jobs. (I would never expect a General Practioner doctor to be knowledgeable in heart surgery.) In this case they should only be expected to support your computer connecting directly to the Internet and then to your company network. Your network (the AEBS) is your responsibility, not theirs. If they try to help you and fail then be glad you at least have an IT group that's open to working with you. Some aren't willing to even go that far.
Best of luck finding your answer! bill

Computer unable to connect to servers over certain ports through AEBS

Despite being a die hard windows user, I love my AEBS. Unfortunately, I have recently experienced an issue which has forced me back to my old LinkSys router.
With my computer which runs Windows Vista, when I try and connect to Age of Conan (a game which requires communication over port 7025) the computer is unable to establish a connection through the AEBS and the game hangs. However, the game also requires a connection on a variety of other ports (e.g. 7000) and these ports connect just fine.
- What is most frustrating is that this /used/ to work - I played the game regularly before going on hiatus for a couple of months and just recently came back.
- When I connected previously, it was before the firmware upgrade to 7.3.2. This is just anecdotal, as I'm not sure this is the cause. I've tried backing out to 7.3.1 and 7.2.1 but neither worked.
- I've tried creating a port mapping rule which will route all 7025 traffic to my static IP, no dice
- My wife's computer which runs XP64 is able to connect just fine
The only thing I can think of is a possible relation to IPv6 which Vista supports but XP doesn't. IPv6 has always been set to link-local only. Is there any way to completely disable it?
Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Yes you are right once the router is configured then you can use the desktop wirelessly , if you have the wireless adapter on the desktop .. However before that you need to connect your computer with the router with a ethernet cable and configure the router first and that can be done by using the CD or manully as well.

Cannot open pages while connected with AEBS ?

I only have a dialup connection through AOL. Finally bought old style AEBS with modem so i could connect with my iBook at home. Seem to have it configured to network with my G5 ok. Got it to connect to AOL, i'm online. My problem is i can't open any pages. I usually use Firefox and it opens fine but after that i can't access any websites, same thing with Safari. Every thing works fine as long as i'm not connected through Airport. Where should i look to remedy this?

Hi Robert!
See if this AOL Internet access requires an update when
using AirPort helps.
If you are seeing an asterisk * when trying to
navigate to webpages, try this;
A fix for this is to change the modem scripts AOL is
using.
Sign Off, but don't quit AOL.
When signed OFF of AOL, but with the Sign-On screen
open, click: SET UP > Expert Set UP.
Click : Add TCP Connection to bring up new
dialog box.
Pull down the menu in Advanced Options - Connection
Scripts:
Change the connection script to TCP (DO NOT
use Airport)
Click Okay and close all windows.
Good Luck!

How can i airplay from my mac connected through ethernet to an aple tv 2 on wifi

Hi everyone..
im having troubles using Airplay on my mac.. i connect my mac to the internet and home network using an ethernet connection to my router (non apple branded router) .. my apple tv 2 is connected to my home wifi network from the same router.. when i first set up my apple tv.. i was able to see the Airplay icon on itunes and it would let me Airplay media from my mac to my apple tv.. however.. it disconnects after a little while.. same thing with viewing my itunes library from apple tv.. i was able to detect my shared library from the apple tv.. i was able to play some media but then it disconnected after some time.. but now.. the Airplay icon doesnt show up in itunes anymore.. and i cant see my shared library from my apple tv neither.. ive looked around for a solution and followed the tip to turn the ipv6 off.. it worked for some time but now the problem is back..
i know the obvious solution is to connect my mac to the same wireless network as my apple tv.. but i would like to keep it connected through ethernet..
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4
Apple TV 2 software version 4.4.4
Thanks in advance

I wouldn't say that was the obvious answer at all, my Mac is connected by ethernet and 6 of my 7 Apple TV's are connected by wifi, I haven't had any of your problems. The problem is most likely on your network.
Intermittent problems
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
Consistent Problems
A frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is the service being blocked on the network. Make sure your network isn't hidden, has a unique name, that MAC address authentication is disabled, security is set to use WPA 2 Personal and that there is only one router/device acting as a DHCP server and providing NAT services.
Make sure your router/computer allows access over the following ports

Refer to your router manual/manufacturer for any settings that are specific to that model.
Another frequent cause of consistent failure to enable AirPlay or HomeSharing at all, is security software, in many cases configuring it correctly, disabling it or even uninstalling it can help, but in some cases the security software can cause problems that simply reconfiguring, disabling or uninstalling cannot reverse.
If you are consistently unable to activate AirPlay, have tried all the steps in this article and have security software installed on your system, you might benefit from contacting its provider or participating in any online forums they run to discuss the matter with them.

Max number of files that can be opened in harddrive through AEBS?

What is the maximum number of files that can be opened in a external hard drive (Lacie 500 GB, USB 2.0) connected through the AEBS? Looks like there is a limit.
When I am trying to 'seed' files through a bit-torrent client (Azureus 2.5.0.4) many of them give an error "Error: too many open files". I never had this error before.
When I tried to delete a file in the hard drive, I got the error "too many open files". Then I stopped 'seeding' in Azureus and I was able to delete the file.

Thanks Chris, it has almost become unwieldy now at this stage ... I'm actually thinking of calling another template for certain sections
I belive this is possible..

Has anyone successfully connected an AEBS to the new Panasonic TVs with built-in WiFi? If so, please describe the requirements and process. Thanks.

Has anyone successfully connected an AEBS to the new Panasonic TVs with built-in WiFi? If so, please describe the requirements and process. (TV subscription is through DirecTV and ISP is TWC.) Thanks.

If you wish to use the cellular capabilities of a device, you will need a SIM (unless the carrier uses CDMA which doesn't use SIMs) and you will have to pay a cell carrier. No cell company provides service for free. The only way you will get free Internet is via WiFi to a free and open WiFi access point, as sometimes is offered in public buildings or by some businesses.

Can't connect using AEBS - driving me insane

hi, hopefully someone out there can help!!
i am trying to connect 2 computers to my AEBS. one is a mac mini and wired, the other is an ibook and wireless.
both of them connect perfectly when i connect them with wires directly into the modem. however when i try and route the connection through the AEBS neither the wired or wireless connection works. this is despite the ibook telling me that it's connected to the internet via airport.
i've called my ISP and talked to them, they gave me all the relevant settings but it hasn't made any difference. the problem seems to be in the AEBS itself.
any thoughts? it's driving me insane...

Hello thecornishman. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Since your Macs are not able to access the Internet either wirelessly or by wire with the AEBSn, try the following, in order, checking for Internet access after each step, until resolved:
1. If the modem has a reset switch, use it to reset the modem. Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the modem to initialize.
2. Remove power from the modem. If it has a backup battery, remove this as well. Wait 5-10 minutes. Replace the battery, and add power back to the modem.
3. Perform a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
o Power-off the modem, AEBSn, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
o Power-off the modem, AEBSn, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
4. Contact your ISP to have them perform a "modem reset."

Can't get full speed out of Comcast Blast (16/2) when connected to AEBS

I just moved into to a new townhouse that I had prewired with Cat 6 and have subscribed to Comcast Blast service. (No Fios here.) When I connect my Mac directly to the modem, I can get download speeds as high as 16-17 Mbps and upload speeds around 1.5 Mbps at times. However, when I try to connect through my home network (modem > AEBS > Gbit switch > Mac), I'm lucky to get > 4Mbps down and about 1.5 Mbps up. (Download speed is obviously more of a concern.) The AEBS is running v7.2.1 and I confirmed through Network Utility that I'm connected to my network at 1Gb. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Hey Paul:
Okay.
This should NOT be happening. Something is obviously awry here. Try checking the cable that is used to connect your Comcast Modem to your Airport Base Station. It may / may not be the problem. Usually however Comcast does not supply high quality patch cords and they're not anywhere near the cat 5 or 5e spec. Forget about Cat 6 being given away by them.
So go buy a handful of patch cords that are spec'd at cat 6. (And get ready to pay thru the nose for them!) Use these to replace all the connections from the Cable Modem to the AEBS and from the AEBS to your Gigabyte Switch. You can get a reading that says you're connecting at gigabyte speeds but if your cables won't run it, then you do not get the throughput that you're looking for. Remember you are going through multiple ethernet ports here (cable modem to AEBS to Switch to Computers.
Also, do you have your Gigabyte capable devices on the GB switch ONLY? No 10/100 printers or computers with slower ethernet ports connected to THAT switch? I know they say 10/100/1000 but generally that's total BS. You'll find that isolating the slower speed devices/computers onto their own switch/hub makes a huge difference. A NON-Gigabyte ethernet device (just like a non-N Wireless device) mixed into the same network can slow down the who network. The solution is to put the slower stuff on a little 8 port powered 10/100 switch of it's own with a Gigabyte UpStream connection to your GB switch. That way the slower devices don't slow your entire network down to a crawl. Don't forget to use a CAT 6 Cable from the GB Switch to the 10/100 switch with a GB Upstream port. Yes. It matter that much. The faster the network goes the less forgiving it becomes.
Also, you said you had the house wired for CAT 6. Did the installers use CAT 6 certified Jacks, Cable, Connectors? Lots of really lousy electricians will charge you for CAT6 and then use the cheaper connectors and jacks. You've got the right cable. But nothing else. And the whole thing is NOT going to work at the maximum speeds until the hardware is all CAT6 and installed correctly.
I paid over $30k to wire the office for CAT 6 and POE for the phones. The contractor used the cheaper cat 5 jacks and connectors. They didn't even terminate the connectors properly. Cost me a fortune in trouble shooting to find the problem and more money/time to correct it. When I took the first guy to court for breach of contract and fraud he said "I didn't know that CAT6 required special jacks and connectors and cable terminations." The judge agreed with me that as an electrical contractor charging that kind of money - he should have known and supplied what he specified. Not what was handy and cheaper. I got my money back. And court costs. And he got fined an additional $50k for the fraud and misrepresentation. So find out what your contractors actually installed. I'd almost bet that somewhere along the way, you're back to cat 5 or cat 3 and don't even know it.
Good luck!

Problem with socket connection through Java Embedding...

We are trying to create a simple socket connection to a socket server through BPEL PM using the Java Embedding component.
BPEL Process : Client makes an asynchronous request. Passes an input variable. The input variable is sent to the Server Program through a socket connection through the Java embedding component.
Server: We are running a simple Socket Server program from command prompt.
The code below works fine as long as we do not try to receive a response from the server (Commented Code).
If we uncomment the code and try to receive a response, it refuses to create an instance for the BPEL Process. And sometimes restarts the BPEL Server.
Client Code:
String msg="NONE";
try{
org.w3c.dom.Element input = (org.w3c.dom.Element) getVariableData("inputVariable","payload","/client:clientProcessRequest/client:input");
msg = input.getNodeValue();
Socket clientsoc=new Socket("ServerIP",1000);
PrintWriter out1=new PrintWriter(clientsoc.getOutputStream());
out1.write(msg);
out1.flush();
BufferedReader cin1=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientsoc.getInputStream()));
msg=cin1.readLine();
setVariableData("outputVariable","payload","/client:result",new String(msg));
clientsoc.close();
catch(UnknownHostException e)
System.err.println("Don't know about host: dev.");
System.exit(1);

How do I configure ISP native IPv6 connectivity?

Hi!
I'm a network engineer for SECOM, an ISP in Southeastern Colorado. We will be making native IPv6 connectivity available to residential subscribers soon, and I've been tasked with verifying support for our IPv6 platform on home router products.
I have an AirPort Extreme purchased new in November of '09 that is running version 7.5.1, which I believe is completely current.
Under the IPv6 tab in my Advanced settings, I have the following configuration:
IPv6 Mode: Router
Block incoming IPv6 connections: NOT checked
Configure IPv6: Manually
WAN IPv6 Address: fdXX:XXXX:XXXX:a000::2
WAN IPv6 Prefix Length: 64
IPv6 Default Route: fdXX:XXXX:XXXX:a000::1
LAN IPv6 Address: fdXX:XXXX:XXXX:c000::1
(As you can see, I'm using ULA's for testing purposes, and I've replaced the global bits with X's for security.)
The problem is, if I plug a host into one of the LAN ports and assign it an address from the same /64 subnet (e.g. fdXX:XXXX:XXXX:c000::2), the host can't ping the Airport's assigned LAN address.
It can ping:
* the Airport's link-local IPv6 address, and
* the Airport's IPv4 192.168.x.x address
Also (and I'm gratified that this part is working), my CE router can ping the Airport's WAN IPv6 address!
So my question is, is there something in the IPv6 configuration I'm misunderstanding? Has anyone else gotten native statically-configured IPv6 working on the AirPort Extreme?
Thanks very much in advance,
John E. / SECOM
P.S. - I have verified with a packet capture that the AirPort extreme is not responding at all for the configured LAN IPv6 address; i.e., the ICMPv6 neighbor solicitation goes unanswered.
P.P.S. - I have tried a Windows 7 host, a Windows XP host, and an IPv6-certified multitester from JDSU. All exhibit the same symptoms.

I have follow your instruction to connect to my ISP as it shows the following message:
Serial connection established.
using interface sppp0
connect: sppp0 <--> /dev/ttya
local IP address xxxxxxxx
remote IP address 1.1.1.1
But when I ping www.sun.com, it shows:
www.sun.com unknown.
I start Mozilla and it said www.sun.com not found etc...
What has gone wrong?
Do I have to configure some files such as:
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/hosts
/etc/hostname ?
or any other steps that can help me to connect to the internet?
Thanks...

HT2250 I have been able to get my MacBook Pro to print wirelessly through my Airport device. How do I make it so other computers (non-Mac) can also print wirelessly as well? They are able to connect through my wireless network but can't print.

Well, you could install the drivers to the wireless printer in you other computers.

As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.
