Network camera access via airport extreme ie: i need to assign a port and a

please help me i have a cabin in the mountains that is off the grid... and i use solar power... i have my internet access via wifi and an antenna... it goes to a d-link router in my electric room then from there via a cat 5 cable to a apple airport extreme base station... and i would like to plug the camera into the base station via a cat 5 cable....
i am trying to set up a network camera to via a airport extreme base station.... the tech support on the camera end (airlink 101 skyIP cam500 model aicn500) said to enable port 80 and to assign a IP address (which i have)... apple support has been unable to help me after almost 1 hour with tech support.... here is what the camera tech support page suggests....
You will now need to forward the Second HTTP Port through your router to the IP address of the camera. If you have an AirLink101 router, we have instructions in our knowledge base for port forwarding. If you have a router from another company, you will need to contact them for instructions on port forwarding.
When accessing the camera from a remote location you will need to open a browser and type in the internet IP address of your network (not the ip address of the camera) and the port into a web browser. The address and port will need to be typed in like this:
http://x.x.x.x:port
x.x.x.x = Internet IP address
port = Second HTTP Port
Here is an example of what it would look like: http://123.123.123.123:81
can anyone please help me?

i can not thank you enough for taking the time time to help me!!! i really appreciate it.... i have done the set up with the d link router and am now trying to access the camera from the web.... but i am having trouble logging in and finding it? i am not sure what ip address to enter into my web browser? i think that i need to add the ip addresss folllowed by a forward slash and then the port # 80.... but what ip address should i add? in the device info part of the d link router i have found a number of ip address's... but none of them seem to work? what am i doing wrong? or not doing? my apple base station is set up in the bridge mode with a password to protect it...
thanks again...

  • Network Camera Access Via Internet

    I have a d-link network camara. I connect it to my FE04 router (1811). How do I setup to have my people access to this camera by having them to enter ip address in internet with userid and password?

    dynamic dns:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_4/ip_addr/configuration/guide/ht_ddns.html
    As for the firewall, nobody can access your network because of nat. IOS also has firewall, but in most cases it is not necessary.
    Hope this helps, please rate post if it does!

  • Internet connection via Airport Extreme/router thats not working, why?

    I have been having problems with the internet connection via Airport Extreme which I find it a bit unusual and its still driving me nuts! This is what happened:
    I have lost my internet connection last Sunday evening upon my return from a weekend away from home. The last time I have used the internet connection on my macbook was the previous Friday morning. Prior to the apparent disconnection on Sunday, I have always used my internet connection wirelessly through Airport Extreme (that is connected via ethernet cable to the NETGEAR DG834v2 ADSL modem which had worked beautifully until the problem arose on my return). This wireless internet connection allowed me to surf the internet anywhere in my home.
    However, upon the successful re-connection to the internet via the modem router, I have discovered several new problems. I have tried to set up the internet connection wirelessly again but instead the following happened:
    1. Router (Netgear) drops ADSL connection and cannot reconnect when connected to airport via Ethernet. (which is the case when using airport wireless).
    2. Router connects to ADSL fine when computer is connected to it via Ethernet. (However, router disconnects when magsafe power adapter is taken out for some inexplicable reason!)
    3. Router connects to ADSL fine when nothing is connected to the router (ie. No Ethernet connections)
    4. Router connects to ADSL fine when connected to airport via Ethernet and computer is connected to airport via Ethernet.
    So from the above, I cannot connect to the internet properly whether wirelessly or not so I suspect it could be faulty router or could it be airport extreme? I have asked my ISP for an explanation and all they have said is that it cannot be the mis-configuration but could be to do with the power adaptors or the way plugs are set up and suggested I take out all the power plugs (and power surge protector) out to switch everything off, the macbook, router, printer and airport extreme. However, when I have re-plugged them all back in, the problems I have described above still persists!
    Would appreciate any help if anyone here recognises why this is the case and what seems to be the cause of this. If so, what should I do? Though I have written back to my ISP again yesterday for more help so im waiting to hear from them...
    Thanks

  • 2 Computers Cannot Access Internet Via Airport Extreme at the same time!

    I recently purchased two new computers -- a Macbook Pro (for myself) and a Macbook (for my wife). My Macbook Pro arrived first, and connected to the wireless network via Airport Extreme with no problem. Once my wife's computer arrived, and we would connect to the network with her computer, every time she accesses the network it basically "boots" my computer from the network. It still says I'm "connected" to it, but no programs/browsers/etc. that use the internet will actually work and it behaves as though there is no network connected at all. In the mean time, her Macbook continues to operate as normal and never seems to get "booted" by my Macbook Pro. Is the network thinking our two computers are the same computer? Or, what is the problem? PLEASE HELP!

    I have had the same problem with my iMac and MacBook, both on leopard and with a new AEBS. With the additional symptom that internet connection will drop on either machine individually, with the other powered off. I also tried a Time Capsule, with exactly the same results. But I have observed what is described here. Internet connection is fine on one machine, then drops and I find the other machine working for awhile, until it drops. Just ping-ponging back and forth.
    Since I am seeing the same problem in two new Macs with an AEBS and TC, it's hard to say that there a problem specifically with any one of them. I suspect that my problem is interference, or electrical noise when using 802.11n. The only thing that worked for me is "802.11b/g compatible" mode.
    In another post, it was suggested that the AEBS was interacting with Digital cable TV/internet, potentially causing an electrical noise issue. What kind of service to you have?

  • Weird lost access to iMac's desktop via Airport Extreme wireless LAN

    This is weird and complicated. I'll try to keep it simple.
    1. Two computers on a wireless LAN via Airport Extreme: G4 Powerbook and 20" G5 iMac. The LAN has worked flawlessly and seamlessly for several years, and except for this ONE anomaly, still does.
    2. When logged-in to the iMac from the Powerbook, all its files and contents show up normally in it's networked-drive window in Finder,
    3. EXCEPT the desktop. And I mean the real desktop which is under my ID under USERS.
    4. Searching the Powerbook from the iMac, however, works just fine and shows all of the Powerbook's contents.
    Repairs of Permissions on both computers have accomplished nothing.
    There is one other peculiar symptom: there was a .wmv movie file sent me by a friend, and I had a copy of it on the desktops of both computers. It sat there, showed up and ran just fine, until one day something curious happened:
    The file would show up in the column-view Finder window of the iMac's desktop when I opened it from the Finder Window, but would, after about a second, disappear!
    If I try to import, on the Powerbook, some random file into the iMac's Desktop folder, it appears for a brief second and then the folder once again displays as empty.
    I have trashed that wmv file, and yet sometimes its name blinks up on the iMac's desktop list (that is, again, the column view display in the Finder window).
    This is profoundly weird.
    Oh, and there's nothing changed or weird about the SHARING settings. Personal File Sharing is enabled on both computers, as is Printer Sharing, and itunes music sharing is also enabled. All of these continue to work just fine. Firewall is enabled, but always has been.
    Owen

    Well, when in doubt try all the obvious things FIRST!
    I rank Disk Utility from the install disk, did a disk repair, and, well, Bob's your uncle, and all is fine again. Apparently that ghost file screwed up the count of files (I'm not sure what that means, but it seems consistent with a file that would materialize and then disappear, and screw up display of a folder's contents - the folder it was lurking-in invisibly.
    Very peculiar, none the less.
    Owen
    I'll leave this open for another day, if only to see if someone has an explanation for what may have happened, since that might be useful to others, besides satisfying my own curiosity.

  • Finder freezes when attempting to access a "shared" external hard drive (wireless via Airport Extreme)

    Finder freezes.   As soon as I click onto my "shared" external hard drive (3TB WD - wireless via Airport Extreme), finder immediately freezes / eternally spinning beach ball (until I restart finder).  Can still access wirelessly on another Mac (not on Yosemite).
    Please help!

    Ok - for a while there, the hard drive would not come up on the desktop - but now on a re-boot of the compter, or if I disconnect the hard drive and re-connect it, a message comes up with three buttons which say:
    Initialize
    Ignore
    Eject
    Sound like the hard drive has died?

  • Setup Airport Extreme for the home wireless - MacBook Air, Pro, and iPad connect just fine.  Wireless will not work to Windows 7 and Vista machines - network seen, tries to connect, but fails after entering WPA key.

    Can't get Windows Vista or Windows 7 laptops to access internet via Airport Extreme.  Works fine with security on MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and iPad.  Brand new Airport, bought today.  Windows machines worked fine with existing, relatively modern Cisco home router.    The Windows machines see the wireless network, prompt for password, and then cannot connect.  Have tried all sorts of things with Windows machines, deleted existing networks, etc. even tried guest login with no security on the Airport - no luck.  Windows XP machine directly (wire) connected works fine.  Magic Jack works OK.  Light is green on the front.

    Thank you very much for your help @Sunshyn2005!!!!! I think we're good to go now!

  • ITunes Settings for Media on External Drive via Airport Extreme...

    iTunes Settings for Media on External Drive via Airport Extreme base station versus plugging directly into laptop.
    My current configuration is that my iTunes Media (700gb) are all stored in an External Drive that's plugged into my Airport Extreme Base Station. This works great for me having wireless access to my iTunes external drive.
    Whenever I need to back up that hard drive with Time Machine, I just plug it directly to my laptop...
    But how do I let iTunes (or iTunes library) know that this is the same hard drive where all my media is stored when it's plugged directly into the laptop as opposed to trying to access it from my Airport Extreme network?

    No there isnt any files call library in the folder i created I am now in the process of copying them back but I guess I will loose all my playlists and playcounts. I do have a Copy of my drive that i made with carbon copy cloner. So maybe it will be best to boot from there, restore and start again.
    Chris it was just the media folder. I was following the instructions on the apple support page. Got to point 14 didn't get the warning but did seen to have a brand new itunes, so emptied the trash as they said expecting everything to be fine but it wasnt.

  • I am getting a "connection timeout" message when trying to access my Airport Extreme with various laptops, Play Station 3 and Wii. My Airport Extreme is about a month old; it was working fine until about a week ago. C

    I am getting a "connection timeout" message when trying to access my Airport Extreme with various laptops, Play Station 3 and Wii. My Airport Extreme is about a month old; it was working fine until about a week ago. Suddenly, the "timeout" is not allowing me to connect to my wireless network.

    It could be that there's a new source of interference.

  • Printing problems with HP 1012 connected via Airport Extreme - resolved?

    I originally posted on this issue in a long-running discussion on HP printer issues.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10109788#10109788
    Problem: Upgraded iMac 10.4.11 to 10.6 Following upgrade everything seemed fine except that the HP 1012 connected via Airport Extreme was not responsive. The system knew the printer was there, had installed the proper driver for it.
    Intermediate troubleshooting: I tried to use Airport Utility to check the AE. It timed-out when trying to retrieve the AE setup specifications. I tried to update the firmware (7.4.1 to 7.4.2); system timed-out after a very long several minute "search for new version of the firmware."
    Apparent solution: (any of the following may have made the difference - sorry not to have been more systematic)
    a. I turned off AP on the iMac.
    b. I unplugged the AE base station for one minute+, then re-powered it.
    c. I opened my MBP with 10.5.7. Started up Airport Utility.
    d. I renamed the base station. Left all other settings alone.
    e. I installed the 7.4.2 firmware upgrade.
    f. I ran Preference Repairs on the iMac (though I had done this right after installation of 10.6)
    g. I turned on AP on the iMac.
    Result: Almost immediate connection to AP, printer quickly began printing several of the test documents that must have been waiting in queue.
    Too early to tell if I will have any further problems if if it permanently fixed.
    Thanks to the several messages in both Printer and Network categories that suggested one or more of the above steps.

    I hooked up my wife's Deskjet 5150 to my mac via USB. Since the 5150 does not have a driver from HP to work in SL. I decided to us the generic Gutenprint v5.2.3. For the heck-of-it, I picked, HP Deskjet 5550-Gutenprint v5.2.3. It prints. and the utility works, BTW, I am low on black ink.
    I also tried the other printer drivers labeled "any printer name"-Gutenprint v5.2.3. and they all worked with the 5150.
    So now that I know that the 5150's will work via USB with SL, I will now upgrade the other two laptops in my house to SL.
    How to:
    Turn printer on.
    open System pref/ printer-fax/ add printer
    Select hp desktop 5100
    (name: -- Change name if you want - I kept " hp deskjet 5100"
    Location: Your computer
    Print Using: open dropdown box, select printer software. Type in: " Gutenprint" or "deskjet". I picked the HP Deskjet 5550-gutenprint v5.2.3. but I do not think it matters as long as it is a -gutenprint v5.2.3 driver.
    Select OK

  • Can't print from Macbook via Airport Extreme.

    I have just got myself a White Macbook and have it connected to my Airport Extreme. I already have an imac connected and everything is working fine internet wise but if I try and print from the macbook via the imac a window comes up saying 'Canon MP610 series @ newimac - connecting to xxxx-xxxxx-computer.local. on port631...' but nothing else happens. My firewall setting on the imac is at 'Allow only essential services'. If I change it to 'Allow all incoming connections' the printer works. I do have printer sharing switched on in both machines. Any help gratefully received. Thanks, Kevin

    Try changing your firewall settings to set access for specific applications and services. This should allow printer sharing, while still keeping things blocked that you don't want.

  • Extending an existing wireless network with a new Airport Extreme(802.11n)

    Is it possible to extrend a existing wireless network comprised on a Airport Extreme (g) and a Airport Express with a new Airport Extreme (n) ? and possibly accesss an airdisk? Have tried settng channel to the same (1) but no worky.
    I have had real problems (at least 2 hours with Apple Care to no avail) at getting the new Airport Extreme(n) to connect to the internet (Ozemail/iinet) with PPOE. Authentication when changed to occur at ADSL modem and produces no errors (green light) but no internet still through AE(n). Not Hardware either as both ADSL modem and AE(n) have been changed.
    So as a last ditch attempt, thought I might try extending the preexisting network that works fine so I can access an AirDisk.
    Any reponses appreciated.

    Search this forum for "WDS". Since I am having massive problems myself right now, I can only tell you: Try the two methods mentioned in this thread:

  • I cannot get past Gateway PING when connecting Samsung BD player to Internet via Airport Extreme?

    I have now been trying for 2 days to get my Samsung 3d BD Player to connect to my wireless iinternet (via VIVID WIRELSS) in Australia. I am using an Airport Extreme Base Station WIRED to the BD Player and wirelessly connecting to the WiFi. The Network Test shows Ok for MAC and IP, Gatewy, DNS etc... but wont get to the Internet test because it stalls at Gateway Ping. I have tried all of the various setup changes - Auto, manual, changing the adresses but noting works. Sometimes it takes longer to fail the Gateway Ping (when I put in the WAN settings as opposed to the LAN settings but none work.I know I have the correct info in my WiFi setup with the password and security etc... Is this just an incompatibility between Samsung and Apple? It worked fine with my Pioneer player and also my Panasonic Player? Any help gratefully accepted!!!

    I assume that these results are coming from the Samsung BD player's network administration interface ... correct?
    When configured to join another wireless network, the Extreme is also reconfigured as a bridge. That means all IP address information must come from the upstream router that is providing DHCP server services ... so the Samsung is actually testing the upstream router's connectivity to the Internet, not the Extreme's.
    I am venturing to guess that if you plug the BD player directly into the upstream router, it would not have any issues connecting. So, this would confirm my earlier statement that Ethernet ports on the Extreme are not enabled.
    I would further guess that if you connected the Extreme directly to the upstream router by Ethernet and configure it for both Wireless Mode = Create an wireless network and Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode), that the BD player would get the proper IP addresses it needs for Internet connectivity.

  • Creating network using Time Capsule, Airport Extreme and Airport Express

    Hello, 
    Yesterday I purchased the 4th Gen Time Capsule to replace my Airport Extreme (4th gen) as my "main" router.  However, I want to repurpose my Airport Extreme to extend the network AND use the Ethernet ports to connect additional devices.  I will then use my Airport Express solely to "join the network" for Airplay purposes.
    I connected the Time Capsule directly to my cable modem using Ethernet.  I set up the Time capsule in Airport, checked the "allow this network to be extended" and used WPA2 Personal encryption.  I then set up the Airport Extreme to "join an existing network"  wirelessly and mimic the same network name, encryption type and password.  Finally, I set up the aiport express as I mentioned above.
    This setup does a great job of extending my network with increased performance.  However, when I plug my Mac into the Airport Extreme using ethernet, it does not recognize.  This Mac IS connected via Aiport.  However, under the "ethernet" option in the Network Menu, it says "No IP Address Found." 
    I've searched some other forums and thought this configuration would work.  Also, I apologize if this seems like and amateur post.  This is my first time using the Apple support Community.
    Thank you

    I set up the Time capsule in Airport, checked the "allow this network to be extended" and used WPA2 Personal encryption
    Those are the correct settings for the "main" router.
    I then set up the Airport Extreme to "join an existing network"  wirelessly and mimic the same network name, encryption type and password
    The AirPort Extreme does not provide any additional wireless coverage and the Ethernet ports are not enabled if the device is configured to "join a wireless network"
    Check your setttings using AirPort Utility - Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab located just below the row of icons
    Wireless Mode = Extend a wireless network
    Wireless Network Name = Same name as the Time Capsule wireless network
    Enter a check mark next to "Allow wireless clients"
    Wireless Security = Same setting as the Time Capsule wireless network
    Wireless Password = Same password at the Time Capsule wireless network
    Confirm Password
    Click Update at the lower right and allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart.
    Configured correctly, the AirPort Extreme will extend the wireless network and the Ethernet ports on the Extreme will be enabled.
    I good starting location for the extending device is a location about 1/2 to 2/3 the distance from the main router to the area that needs more wireless coverage.
    Once you have the AirPort Extreme configured and working correctly, post back if you would like a tip to find out exactly which device....your Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme that your laptop is connected to at any given location.

  • Win XP does not print via Canon MP970 via Airport Extreme

    OK, I bought a Canon MP970 printer and hooked it up to the airport extreme, changed all of the ports to 10.0.1.1 on my XP, shared the printer, ran Bonjour, ran airport utility, and everything I know how to do. I can print from my Powerbook G4 and from a new black macbook that I just bought on my network. Problem is I cannot print from my windows XP PC. Very frustrating. It did work fine with my HP printer; that is print from my laptops AND my PC desktop via airport extreme. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    OK, I kept working at it and seemed to have fixed the problem. I finally just redirected the port to a local one "9101"and not the 10.0.1.1 and began working. I am not sure what I did definitively to make it work. And I just installed the latest printer drivers into my PB G4 and new blackbook and worked. I really just need to trash the PC and go with Apple but you know.......wife.....$$$$$, etc....
