Open port in airport extreme for Amule

I need help with this issue because I get an Low ID when i open Amule. I know its needed to open ports TCP 4662 and UDP 4672 in Airporte Extreme mapping ports but Im not sure what exactly I have to do. I hope for any help.
Thanks

I think you need to provide more information about what you've done and what you're trying to do.
Did you assign a static LAN IP address to the NAS, what are your port forwarding entries, etc?

Need help with opening ports on airport extreme

My vonage phone is connected to airport extreme router, voice quality of phone calls was poor. Vonage tech support says vonage port on my airport extreme was closed and i need to open it.
Here is my chat details with vonage tech support-
The following ports are needed for Internet communication between the Vonage adapters and the Vonage servers.
SIP: Port 5061 UDP
RTP (Voice) Traffic: Ports 10000-20000 UDP. When a call is made, a random port between 10000 and 20000 is used for RTP (Voice) traffic. If any of these ports are blocked, you may experience one way or no audio.
Please do suggest me the way to open the ports on airport extreme
Thanks
Venki

Instructions for opening ports is here.

You should be fine opening the whole range, 10000-20000

Cannot open port through Airport Extreme to access security system DVR

I have internet access through Bellsouth DSL -- modem only. We had a security system set up around a DVR recording images and connected to the internet through a Linksys router. We would use a client on outside computers to connect to the security system dvr and see what was happening (live or recorded). I switched out the Linksys for the Airport Extreme, and now we cannot connect to the DVR.
Do I need to manually open a port to the DVR? How do I do this? The DVR connects to the Airport Extreme via Ethernet, and as far as I can tell, the Airport Extreme connects to the DSL modem via Ethernet using DHCP. We have a static IP address. I thank you in advance for any answers, and I apologize if I'm not giving enough information.

Let's double-check your Port Mapping setup on the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) ...
To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the host device.
Internet > DHCP tab
o On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
o Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
o Reserve address by: MAC Address
o Click Continue.
o MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
o IPv4 Address: 10.0.1.4
o Click Done.
2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
Advanced > Port Mapping tab
o Click the "+" (Add) button
o Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
o Public UDP Port(s): 6746
o Public TCP Port(s): 6746
o Private IP Address: 10.0.1.4
o Private UDP Port(s): 6746
o Private TCP Port(s): 6746
o Click "Continue"

Opening Ports on Airport Express for GTA IV

I am told that to play Grand Theft Auto 4 (GTA 4) properly, I need to "open ports" on my router and enable UPnP (Universal Plug-n-Play).
The ports I am supposed to open are:
UDP
3478
3479
6672
28900
TCP
80
443
5223
3478
3479
3480
8001
8080
27900
On my Windows 2000 machine, using the AirPort Admin Utility, when I configure the AirPort, I get a window that has a "port mapping" tab.
Is this how I open the ports listed above? If so, it asks for a private IP address, Public Port, and Private port. How do all these relate to the port numbers above?
In the configure base station window, i can't find any mention of how to enable UPnP
Thanks!!!!!
PS, don't hate on me for having a PC, i'm just waiting until Apple comes out with a BluRay capable laptop...

Hello Psychos40. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
On my Windows 2000 machine, using the AirPort Admin Utility, when I configure the AirPort, I get a window that has a "port mapping" tab.
Is this how I open the ports listed above? If so, it asks for a private IP address, Public Port, and Private port. How do all these relate to the port numbers above?
Yes.
To setup Port Mapping:
Assign a manual IP to the host device
The "host" device is the computer that will be hosting GTA and needs to be accessed from the Internet. Under Windows 2000, you would use Network Settings to assign a static IP address to this computer. Note: Be sure to assign an IP address outside of the DHCP range provided by the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) default range of 10.0.1.2 - 10.0.1.200, like 10.0.1.201
To setup port mapping on an AirPort Express Base Station (AX), connect to the AX's wireless network, and then use the AirPort Admin Utility to change these settings:
Port Mapping tab
o Click "Add"
o Public Port: <enter the Port # which will be accessed from the Internet>
o Private Address: <enter the static IP address from above>
o Private Port: <either enter the same value as the Public port or the value you want your application/service to answer on>
o Click "Ok"
o Repeat the last series of steps for each port you wish to map.
In the configure base station window, i can't find any mention of how to enable UPnP
Unfortunately, that's because the AirPorts do not support UPnP. Instead, the AirPorts have a similar feature known as "NAT Port Mapping Protocol." You enable/disable this function on the Ethernet Port Security tab under Base Station Option within the AirPort Admin Utility. Note: Although NPmP is similar, it is not the same as UPnP and may not offer the same features. If GTA requires UPnP, the AirPort's NPmP feature may not support it.

Open ports on airport extreme

How can I open port 3389 on airport extreme/time capsule?

Suggest that you take a look at this User Tip......provided by forum expert Tesserax......to get started on the basics of port mapping:
AirPort - Port Mapping Basics using AirPort Utility v6.x

Can I use the Time Capsule strictly for system backup and continue to use my Airport Extreme for all my wireless needs

I want to use the Apple Time Capsule as an external drive and continue to use my Airport Extreme for all my wireless needs. Can I do that? The reason I ask is that my Time Machine utility cannot find the TIme Capsule - it only shows me the Airport Extreme, even when I "Rescan". SO I am unable to use the Time Capsule.

You will need to connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme to the WAN "O" port on the Time Capsule.
Perform a "hard reset" on the Time Capsule by holding in the reset button for 9-10 seconds, then give it another minute to restart to a slow, blinking amber light.
Open AirPort Utility, select the Time Capsule, and click Manual Setup
Click the Time Capsule tab located below the row of icons to assign a name to the Time Capsule, a device password, and adjust Time Zone settings.
Next, click the Wireless tab located to the right of the Time Capsule tab
Change the setting for Wireless Mode to Off
Click the Internet icon, then click the Internet Connection tab
Connect Using = Ethernet
Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
Click Update at the lower right to save the settings and allow 30 seconds for the Time Capsule to restart to a green light.
You are all set

Still possible to use airport extreme for time machine?

I know apple doesn't officially support it but I remember with one of the airport utility updates, it allowed you to use an external HDD with an airport extreme for time machine backups. I tried hooking my external western digital to my airport extreme and it showed up as an airport disk, however I couldn't get time machine to access it. Is there a way I can get this to work?

I followed the instructions found on the link above and had a couple of issues:
1) Instructions state "Make sure 'Share disks over Ethernet WAN port' is checked." Could not find that check box anyplace.
2) Using first disk and then airport passwords as security, the disk does not show up in the Time Machine preferences. Am I to mount the disk first? Does not state that in the instructions.
3) If I mount the disk in the finder (security is a disk password), I am then able to see the drive in Time Machine and the back-up commences. The disk icon appears on my desktop and contains machine.sparcebundle. Another "disk" also appears on my desktop with the name "Time Machine Backups" and which contains the folder Backups.backupdb. I am also able to remotely attach to the machine doing the TM backup from another mac on the network and login.
4) Back-up started and appeared to go well (240G backed up with several partials after that) until I rebooted.
5) After reboot, it was frozen in "Making backup disk available" Opened preferences and it locked up. Had to force a reboot.
6) After restart, manually mounted the extreme external, opened Time Machine prefs, and when selecting back up location saw one with a red "∅" which I could not select and the other the extreme drive with 240G used. Attempted the back-up to the drive and I got "Making backup disk available" on the menu bar and the same message on TM system prefs with a spinning beach ball. Have been able to force quit system prefs and sent to error log to apple, but a forced reboot is still required because the TM icon on the menu continues to spin. Even a "sudu shutdown -r now" in terminal will not reboot the machine. Get to a blue screen with the spinning tick marks and it just sits there.
I wonder if the fact that I could not find "Make sure 'Share disks over Ethernet WAN port' is checked." is the issue. It does not appear to be available in the current version of the extreme base 7.4.2. Could those of you who were able to configure it with a previous version get grandfathered in? I wonder if I need to manually mount the extreme hard disk each time I reboot the machines. I am not sure how to do that but will try and see if it works.
I will be losing internet and e-mail access for a few weeks so will look at this thread again when I return.

My home network has an Airport Extreme w/Time Capsule as the base and then an Airport Express and a second Airport Extreme to reach different areas of the house. Is there a way to use the second Airport Extreme for file storage on this network?

My home network has an Airport Extreme w/Time Capsule as the base and then an Airport Express and a second Airport Extreme to reach different areas of the house. Is there a way to use the second Airport Extreme for file storage on this network? Network is administered through an iMac running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. Ideally, would like for the second Airport Extreme hard drive to appear on the list of devices in the Finder window.

Ok.. gottcha
The problem is network wise.. Yosemite is about equal to tin cans and string.. pathetic.
Here is my usual set of instructions to get anything working on Yosemite.
The best way to fix problems is a full factory reset of all the AE in the network.
Factory reset universal
Power off the AE.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the AE to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite.
1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
eg AEgen5 and AEwifi for basestation and wireless respectively.
Even better if the issue is more wireless use AE24ghz and AE5ghz with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense.
2. Use all passwords that also comply but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
3. Ensure the AE always takes the same IP address.. this is not a problem for AE which is router.. it is a problem for AE which is bridged.. you will need to set static IP in the main router by dhcp reservations or use static IP in the AE which is tricky.
4. Check your share name on the computer is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric..
5. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only.
6. Now mount the disk of the second AE in finder... manually.
Use Go, Connect to Server and type in the AE ip address.
SMB://10.0.1.2
Where you will replace that address with the actual address. The network resource should be discovered and then it will request the password.. type that in and make sure you tick to save it in your keychain.
There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.
Do as much as you want of the above... not all of it is necessary.. only if you want it reliable.. or as reliable as Yosemite in its current incarnation can manage.
The most important thing is point 6.. mount the disk using direct IP address and not names.. dns in Yosemite is fatally flawed.

Is there a way to test airport extreme for optimal function

Is there a way to test airport extreme for optimal function?

In your Mavericks OS X.
Go to the WiFi icon on the top right.
Hold the option key and click.
At the bottom of the list you will see "Open Wireless Diagnostics"
Open this and you can diagnose your wireless network.
While it'sopen hit the Command + 2 and it will open the Utilities window.
This will give you and overview of interference and what channel is best.
You can alos run a speedtes over WiFi then run a speedtest directly connected with ethernet.

Is it possible to share a disk on airport extreme for both Time Capsule use and Windows use

Hello
I was hoping to add some better backup capacity to our home. Can I use the same disk attacheded to the USB port of an Airport Extreme for Time Capsule use for our Macbooks, as well as general use by the windows laptops> If not is it possible to add multiple disks to the Airport Extreme and designate one for Mac Laptops, and the other for Windows use.
Regards
Ted

Regardless of the client's OS, you can use the AirPort Disk (USB HDD attached to the AirPort Extreme's USB) port as a 'NAS' device. You also have the option of partitioning it if you actually want separate volumes to be used between Mac or Windows clients. I would recommend partitioning it for Mac OS Extended (Journaled) which would also format it for HFS+. Normally HFS+ volumes are not readable (natively) by Windows, but the Extreme's File Server will share this drive out with both AFP (for Macs) and SMB (for Windows/Linux) clients.
However, one note of caution. Do NOT use this AirPort Disk for Time Machine backups as this is NOT supported by Apple. Although a number of users have done so, a number of them also post here complaining of corrupted backups.

I am using an Airport Extreme for wireless and a Netgear VPN Switch for wired connections. How do I get the two networks to connect?

I am using an Airport Extreme for wireless and also have a Netgear VPN Switch (FV5318) for internal wired ethernet connections. How do I get the two networks to connect to each other?

Tesserax, I would like to keep the Airport Extreme in nplace before the Netgear FVS318 switch because I am using all of the 8 ethernet outputs distributed to 8 differerent locationsl This way I can just use one of the LAN outputs from the Airport to feed the FVS318. Here is what I think I am hearing you say:
Tne reason why the wired and wireless devices are not communicating is because the FVS318G is also a DHCP server and in conflict with the AEBS.
To remedy the situastion here is probably what I need to do in order:
1. Change the LAN IP Address of the Netgear FVS318G to be the same subnet of the Airport Extreme.
2. Then, disable the Netgear FVS318G as a DHCP server.
3. Make sure the ethernet cable from the LAN port of the Airport Extreme connectis to the LAN port of the Netgear FVS318G.
4. Restart everything.
Can you provide me the steps I need to take to get the right IP addresses from the Airport Extreme to put into the Netgear to fix the conflict? I have the Airport Utility. I also have two airport express hot spots, and two Apple TVs in addition to computers attached to the 8 ethernet lines.
Thank you.

Dead usb port in airport extreme

I have been using the airport extreme for quite a while but it seems that my usb port is not working anymore since my external drive (connected via usb) was suddenly disconnected.
I don't see the drive recognized anymore in the airport extreme settings. I was trying two other drives and those were also not recognized. I'm sure that the drive are OK because I am able to connect those via usb on other laptops.
What could be wrong? When I plug in my Freecom Tough Drive the blue light of the drive is switched on for short while before it turns of without any connection to the airport. Resetting the airport didn't help as well. I have not changed the firmware or run any updates...It seems that I have to return the device or can I try some other things?
Please advice.

It is entirely possible to have a dead port. What have you done to verify? If you plug into all the other ports and the unit is recognized through Airport Utility, but not the one suspected, that's a good indication. Also plug into each port one-by-one and look for the green light to show on the port connector. If it doesn't show on the suspect port, that's more support of indicating a dead port. You can also unplug the power to the unit, then plug it back in, watching for the port light on the suspect connector to flash green along with all the others. The lack of a green light is not a certain indicator, but almost so. Probably a warranty issue.

How to set up Airport Extreme for 11ac and 11n?

I have just purchased the new Airport Extreme (August 2014) because Apple's website states
Simultaneous dual-band support.
AirPort Extreme features simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi‑Fi. That means it transmits at both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies at the same time. So no matter which band your wireless devices use, they’ll automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.
I have number of Macs in my home from a new MacBook Pro with Mavericks to a Macbook Air with Snow Leopard (due to required software) and iPads.
So after setting up the new Extreme my new MacBook only accesses 11n as does my older Macs. I checked by holding down the option key while clicking the WiFi icon at the top of my Mac. Well, not so automatic then as I was expecting 11ac and 3 times faster access (as stated by Apple).
I then looked for some documentation for setting up but cannot find anything.
Hence my question here.
How to set up Airport Extreme for 11ac and 11n simultaneously?
At present the new Extreme is no better than my previous 2 year old one.
Thank you.
Michael

How to set up Airport Extreme for 11ac and 11n simultaneously?
Assuming that it is operating correctly, 802.11ac and 802.11b/g/n are broadcast simultaneously by default.
Simultaneous dual-band support.
AirPort Extreme features simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi‑Fi. That means it transmits at both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies at the same time. So no matter which band your wireless devices use, they’ll automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.
That is advertising. The real information is usually found in the small and hard to read footnotes:
Based on theoretical peak speeds. Actual speeds will be lower.
AirPort Extreme is based on an IEEE 802.11ac draft specification. Performance based on comparison with Apple’s 802.11n products. Comparison assumes AirPort Extreme network with 802.11ac-enabled computer. Speed and range will be less if an 802.11a/b/g product joins the network. Accessing the wireless network requires a Wi‑Fi-enabled device. Actual speed will vary based on range, connection rate, site conditions, size of network, and other factors. Range will vary with site conditions.
Since the 802.11ac signal is being broadcast only using the 5 GHz band, some users report that they have had better results by using the option to assign a different name to the 5 GHz band, and then pointing their Mac to that specific signal or network. You may want to try that option.
But first as a test, please locate the MacBook Pro about 10-15 feet or 3-4 meters from the AirPort Extreme with clear line-of-sight between the two devices. Restart both the AirPort Extreme and the Macbook Pro and then check to see if the Mac is connected to an 802.11ac signal.
If not, please power off your other wireless devices...computers, mobile devices, etc. temporarily, and try the same test again.
Please report on your results.

How to setup the Airport Extreme for PSP?

Can anyone tell me how to setup the Airport Extreme for PSP? I have been searching the Discussions but none of the posting seems to explain detail enough. A step by step guide would be very appreciated. Thanks.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Sorry, I forgot to mention a few points:
1) I don't have the Airport Extreme base station;
2) My PowerBook is connect to the internet thru wired connection with the Built-in Ethernet;
3) The Airport is turned on, but my PSP's scan cannot locate the PowerBook at all (while it find someone else's network)
So, I wonder if I can just connect my PSP to the built-in Airport in the PowerBook directly. So that I can have internet access on my PSP.
