Old round airport extreme, airport admin utility v4.2, and ps3

i need to open tcp and udp ports to run my ps3. i need to open ports 80-50,000 and apply them to ps3. in my port mapping, i only see public and private ports; it doesn't say udp or tcp.

nealefarmer, Welcome to the discussion area!
Both UDP and TCP ports are opened when you map/open the port.

How can I get AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow 4.2.5 to work with OS10.6?

I've upgraded to the latest version of Mac OS and now AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow 4.2.5 won't run. Any suggestions on how to either run this utility or otherwise get access to my old Snow Dual Airport via another method? Airport Utility doesn't see the device, despite repeated scans. My computer and iPad connect no problem to the device, but both iPod and iPhone won't take and hold an IP address. (If any one can help me solve this issue, I can live without access the Airport.)
Thanks,

Unfortunately, you will need another Mac running a much earlier version of OS X to be able to install AirPort Admin Utility and make any settings chances to the router.
Since the normal life of a wireless router is around 5-6 years of use, now might be the time to consider a new router that will provide far better performance than the older Graphite/Snow AirPort.

Need AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow

hey there.....any help would be greatly appreciated.....
I ave passed along my graphite base station to my brother in law for his new iMac and it seems he needs the "AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow" to get it set up. The new "Airport Utility" doesn't seem to recognize it. Is the utility still available for download? I can't seem to find it anywhere?
Another option....is it possible to copy and paste the utility into my iDisk and have him download it from there?? Not sure it that will work??
Again...many thanks for any help anyone can offer!!!!!

AirPort Admin Utility, version 4.2, which works with Graphite and Snow base stations, can be found within the download of AirPort 4.2 (http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42formacosx1033.html).
I tried it on my MacBook running Mac OS X 10.4.10, with a Graphite base station, and it works fine, so far as I can tell.
I did not actually try to install AirPort 4.2 using the installer, because I was afraid of messing with my system when all I wanted was the utility. Here is how to get it:
- Download the disk image AirPortSW42.dmg from the Web page mentioned above. If the installer launches, quit the installer.
- Double-click the disk image to mount a volume named "AirPort 4.2 Update."
- Within the AirPort 4.2 Update window, ctrl-click on "AirPortSW.pkg."
- Select "Show Package Contents."
- Open the "Contents" folder.
- Double-click the "Archive.pax.gz" file, which causes an "Archive.pax" file and an "Archive" folder to be extracted to the desktop.
- Open the "Archive" folder, the "Applications" folder within it, and the "Utilities" folder within that.
- The AirPort Admin Utility is there. You can move it to Applications/Utilities and discard everything else that was downloaded.
Thanks to Tesserax (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5136389&#5136389) for recently explaining how to extract an AirPort utility from a download package.
Although I have never seen "AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow," it probably was the same thing as AirPort Admin Utility, just renamed.

Airport Admin Utillity 4.2 problems

I have a small wired and wireless network: iMac G5, iMac G3, and iBook G3. The iBook uses a wireless connection through Airport Extreme. I also have a couple of AIrport Expresses for sending iTunes music to stereos. Everything has been working fine except I just noticed that I did not have stereo speaker option in iTunes when using iMac G5 running 10.4.6. I opened Airport Admin Utility 4.2 and could not see of the devices.
The strange thing is that the iBook still has a connection and the iMac G3 can see all three devices just fine. The only computer having a problem is the iMac G5. If I manually select "Other" and enter IP address and password for Airport Extreme, it will open configuration file where I can see settings and even restart it. But, when I close everything, I still cannot see it on the device list.
Any ideas or suggestioons as to the problem?

Found problem. My Linksys 1-port cable router died recently and I replaced it with a 4 port model. I plugged-in my computers, printer into the old 8 port switch that I had used previously, except for the cable from Airport Extreme. For some reason I plugged it into one of the 4 ports of the cable router.
Not sure why there is a difference, but once I put it back into the switch, the iMac G5 and Airport Admin Utililty could see Airport and Expresses just fine. Hope thi helps others.

"Confirguration Error" in Airport Admin Utility

When I start up the Airport Admin Utility, an error shows: "Configuration Error: This version of Airport Admin Utility does not support this base station. You can't update the software for this base station...."
My system basics:
Airport Admin Utility v420.31
Airport Extreme (UFO) v4.0.9
I cannot upgrade the Airport firmware due to the above error. I searched in the Apple support site and cannot find the later version of Admin Utility for download.
Please help!!!!

Since I am using Mac OS X10.3.9, I cannot use "Airport Utility".
Actually, I try "Airport Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow" but another error message prompted up. That is :"Airport Admin Utility does not support this base statin. Use Airport Utility, located in the Utility folder...."
So frustrated!!
I try:
Airport Admin Utility --> Failed
Airport Admin Utility v4.25 --> Failed
Airport Utility v5.x --> Failed not support in OS X10.3.9

AirPort admin Utility 5.0

I have done a search for the AirPort admin Utility 5.0 and i can't find the actual program. I have lost the original disk for it, and i can't use the 5.1 SW because i get an error asking for 5.0 to be installed first. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

A full version of the "Airport Utility" for Windows is not available for download from Apple's web site, as you have already learned. However, there is still a way to obtain it by following this process:
1. download "AirPort Base Station Update 2007-002 for Windows" from Apple's web site
2. use a Winzip utility to extract the contents of the file you downloaded (called Airport521update.exe) to another folder. To further clarify - open the file you downloaded from within the Unzip utility you use. Do not open the file you downloaded by double-clicking on it even though it is a .exe file - otherwise (as you already know) the process will terminate with an error message.
3. the contents of that folder should include four files - applesoftwareupdate.msi, apsetup.msi, apsetupadmin.exe, and bonjour.msi
4. go to All Programs -> Accessories. Right click on the "Command Prompt", select to "run as administrator", and click continue when Windows asks for your permission to run this command.
5. in the command prompt window, type and execute the command
msiexec /i pathto_folder_of_files_youdownloaded\apsetup.msi /qb ap50isinstalled=1
This method simply forces the installer into thinking Airport 5.0 is already installed, thus letting the installer complete its job of installing a full working copy of the updated version.
This procedure also installs Bonjour for Windows, which will simplify the task of configuring on the PC any printer connected to the Base Station.
Important notes: (1) I recommend your unzip the downloaded file into a folder located at the root of your C: drive which makes typing in the path easier, and (2) the name for that folder should be short and *should have no spaces in its name*.

Computer can not read airport admin utility.

I am on the web, but I need to change my password so my PC can also connect via the airport. Although, when I try to change the settings of the airport I am either told the airport is not connected, or it will tell me that there was an error in communicating with the airport. What gives?

I did read your posts - but I'm not certain you followed the instructions (from the beginning) provided in link to the article "Starting from scratch". The advice provided in the link "Starting from scratch" begins by having you do a hard reset of the Airport Base Station before trying to run the Airport Admin Utility again. Sometimes doing this will finally allow the Airport Admin Utility to see and access the configuration of a Base Station when all other attempts to get the Airport Admin Utility to access the Base Station have failed. Any yes - I have indeed seen your problem posted many times over the past few years within the thousands of postings I have read in the Airport discussion forums on this web site.
If you did follow the instructions to hard reset the Base Station, and the Airport Admin Utility still fails to be able to access the Base Station then my apologies, and I'll have to admit I won't be of any help.

HELP: Airport Admin Utility no longer see's my Base Station

Recently someone tried to unsuccessfully connect to my network while I was away.
When I came home I could still connect to the internet but my network name was no longer visible and had been changed. I could still connect to the internet via Airport but my Airport Admin Utility would scan and not find my Base Station !
I have found that in my keychain "Airport Network Password" "System" I cannot get my password !!!!!
I have tried soft and hard reset of my base station to no avail.
Seems I have to reset my password but cannot !
I am at my wits end, can anyone help

Have you tried to change the channel no.?

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

Airport Admin Utility can't find Airport Extreme

I have an older Airport Extreme, about 4 years old. It's been giving me trouble lately, where basically I check my computer and it's not online. I have to click the tiny reset button on the back of the airport and that usually works fine (although annoying).
Today the problem seems a bit worse. I tried the reset thing, but that didn't work. So I tried to do a reset through the airport admin utility. Unfortunately the utility can't seem to detect the airport, although it does detect the airport express we have downstairs (which is essentially used to extend our network a little further).
Currently, of the three tiny lights at the front of the airport, only the middle one is lit, and it is not flashing. Earlier, just after doing a restart, the middle light was blinking slowly and the third light (the one on the far right) was blinking more rapidly. I have not seen the first light lit up today.
If anyone has a suggestion on how I might get this working I would very much appreciate it. Thanks.

Are you getting internet access through the airport? I have the same problem - airport admin utility can't see the airport, but the airport extreme has created a generic network that i can't manipulate without airport admin utility. I have internet...

Airport Extreme problem using airport admin utility

I recently updated to leopard, and I started having problems with my iphone connecting to my wifi network at home. It had worked with out a problem, for months before I upgraded to Leopard.
I started to notice it only happened when my girlfriend would come home from work (she also has an iPhone).
I decided I needed to change some settings on my Airport Extreme but when I go to the Airport Utility and scan for an Airport it finds Nothing...
My Mac Pro and Power Book G4 always connect to the wifi...
My iPhone works great on wifi when the girlfriend is not in the house....
Her iPhone seems to always have a wifi signal in the house...
I Hope this has a fix... and soon....

Airport Admin Utility can no longer access Airport Extreme, what now?

I have an Airport Extreme that worked fine for a long time with a specific IP. They sold out and the new company came in and installed new equipment. The settings had to change on the Airport. After that, I lost my ability to print through the Airport USB port.
I tried to resolve the problem the other day. My Airport Admin Utility saw the Airport, but I couldn't access it. When I clicked configure, a window came up saying "Reading configuration from base station", then a Password login window came up. I enter my password, it says "Reading configuration from base station", then it says "An error occurred while trying to access the base station. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again.". It does the same thing whether I enter the right or wrong password.
It started working unexpectedly for a little while. I experimented with some settings. Now I can't access it again. The Airport Admin Utility sees the Airport as 10.0.0.0, my laptop's IP says 169.xx.whatever. I thought the Airport was supposed to distribute IP addressed. It did for awhile after I set it that way, but then it went back to 169.xx.whatever.
I'm lost. I don't know how I will ever access the Airport again. Or get my printing capability back.
Help!!!

Ok. I'm going to try a reset on a day where I have some time to mess with it. There are some things I need clarified for me about settings. Please correct me as needed.
In the internet tab:
-Connect using Ethernet is selected.
-Configure Manually was selected before as it is now.
-IP address: do I use their IP or 10.0.0.0 or 10.0.1.1 or what?
-Subnet mask: It used to be 255.255.255.0 now it's 255.255.0.0.
-Router address: What do I put here, use their IP or 10.0.0.0 or 10.0.1.1 or what?
-DNS servers: I will enter their DNS servers.
-Domain name: blank
-WAN Ethernet Port is selected Automatic.
Under Network Tab:
-Distribute IP adresses is checked.
-Share a single IP address (using DHCP & NAT)used to be checked, now Share a rnage of IP addresses (using only DHCP) is checked.
-DHCP Lease: 4 hours. What is best here?
Do I really need to worry about anything else? If the password is reset how to I access from default settings?
Thanks, after this I should have a better understanding of network settings and the AEBS.

AirPort Extreme Base Station is not Available in AirPort Admin Utility

I don't see my APEX Base Station in the list in AirPort Admin Util. I can configure by opening by IP. I have no software firewall. I have plugged in directly to base station, and have reflash with 5.7 firmware. I am using 4.2 of AirPort Admin. I've Tried everything I can find in forums. Anyone else have issues?
I'm using Mac OS 10.4.4

I have tried resetting it. It doesn't always work. Sometimes the base station is listed, and sometimes it is not. The base station is functioning though. I can access the newtork, It just doesn't show up in Admin Util.
I also have an AP Epress connected to AP Extreme via WDS. From the wired side, they either both show up or both do not, which is expected. When they don't show up on the Admin list, the Express also doesn't show up in iTunes from the wired side. Wireless clients don't seem to exhibit this problem.

Airport Extreme working but not visible in Airport Admin Utility

Recently my Airport Extreme (spaceship version) stopped showing up in the Airport Admin Utility v4.2.
The internet works fine computers can connect wirelessly or wired to the Airport Extreme and use the internet. AppleTV isn't visible in iTunes anymore either so it can't sync but can connect to the internet to see previews, YouTube, etc.
I have tried removing Airport Admin Utility and reinstalling, checked permissions, all okay.
Any ideas?

Ah - more clues always help!
In that case, I tend to agree with your assessment. For some reason, the Bonjour automatic network device discovery process seems not to be working properly on this Mac. I'm not going to be of much help in troubleshooting that problem.
The only other issue I have encountered is with the installation of excessively robust firewall software on the Mac blocking Bonjour's ability to discover network devices. VPN client software is sometimes also a culprit, for the same reasons. You have already indicated this could not possibly be the cause of your problems.
