Please Help: I cannot get the Airport Extreme settings right with AT&T DSL

AT&T Motorola 2210 DSL Modem.
I have tried both bridged on/off and different configurations on the Airport Extreme, but I cannot get online. I am out of ideas. I called AT&T tech support and because it's not one of their wireless routers, they wanted to charge me to troubleshoot, ridiculous.
Please help

If you find that the Double NAT setting will not allow the PS3 to connect correctly, your only other option is to change the configuration of the modem to either +PPP on the computer+ or +Bridge Mode+ and then configure the PPPoe service on the AirPort Extreme.
I assume that you have already set the modem up using the default IP address of 192.1681.254 (I think this is it). You'll need to locate the page to change the settings and it will probably have a red warning sign on it. Either PPP on the computer or Bridge Mode will work. Update to save settings.
Then under the Internet icon in AirPort Utility:
Connect Using = PPPoE
enter your user name (probably your email address with the service provider)
enter your password
Leave the Service Name area completely blank
Connection = Always On
Disconnect if Idle = Never
Update to save settings.
That will eliminate the Double NAT issue and the PS3 should get a clear indication. As I said, when you have the PPP connection on a device other than the modem, you may see an occasional drop and restart of your connection. That seems to be a fact of life with this type of setup.

I cannot get my AirPort Extreme to work with my new BT fibre modem which has replaced my Draytek modem.

I use to use a Draytec modem with my AirPort Extreme. All worked perfectly and the internet connection was configured as connect using PPPoE. Now I have a replacement mode fro BT to allow a fibre connection I can no onager get on the internet. What do I need to change. Do I need to change the internet connection on the AirPort Extreme to DHCP.

Yes, I do think it is no longer using PPPoE.. but the IP is configured to the fibre to ethenet or vdsl port.
You might need to ring the ISP and get them to give you details.
Anyway it is easy to try.. plug the Extreme WAN port to the new modem and test with dhpc. Check that you get a public not private IP address.

I recently transferred my internet service to another state.I have not yet moved my imac, just my pc laptop. I cannot get my airport extreme wireless router to work. The green light stays lit when everything is connected but I can't connect to the internet. Any suggestions?

I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

I can't get the AirPort extreme to recognize a MagicJack connection. It's an ethernet cable plugged into one of the lan ports and the led won't even light up.

My wireless network is working fine. I have an AirPort extreme hooked to a cable modem and all other devices around the house can get into the network.
However, I am trying to hook up a MagicJack to the AirPort via an ethernet cable without success. The AirPort has 3 lan ports for this kind of purpose. The MagicJack works fine when plugged into my Mac's USB port, but it seems to slow the Mac down too much.
I have tried a new cable, checked that I have power and have rummaged through AirPort Utility, but cannot get the AirPort port to even light up. I've also restarted and rebooted both the AirPort and the cable modem multiple times.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

KiltedTim. You nailed it. I tried the MJ directly into the cable modem and still can't get a phone line. I'll see what MJ can do now.
Thanks and thanks to alanoconner for your help.

I cannot get my Airport Extreme to talk to my cable modem

I cannot get my Airport Extreme to talk to my cable modem. Cable modem is a Cisco, new, Charter cable company. New wires throughout. Connected to internet currently hardwired to cable modem. So I have internet service to the modem.

The modem needs an extended power down period in order to reset, as it is "remembering" your computer and thus will not associate with the AirPort Extreme.

I-book cannot find the Airport Extreme

I have an i-book, G-3, 14" screen. I just had the logic board replaced through the Apple store because the video card died. Prior to this, I had no problem logging onto the Internet via the Airport Card and my Airport Extreme.
After the repair, I took the i-book home to find that it cannot find the Airport Extreme signal, even when the i-book is one foot away from the Airport Extreme.
I played with the Airport settings for an hour and at one point, got a very weak signal showing on the tool bar. I've tried removing/reinstalling the Airport card and antenna with no results. I've even tried resetting the Airport Extreme by depressing the reset button for 10-seconds, but get no flashing red centerlight as the instructions say I should for a hard reset.
Could this problem have something to do with the new logic board? If so, what's the fix?

Hi, and <IMG src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c55/rondaleroi/welcome.gif"</SUB> to Apple Discussions.
Does adjusting the angle of the display make a difference in the signal strength?
Sometimes the AirPort antenna can get pinched in the hinge, or even broken.
I had an AirPort card that just all of a sudden quit working. I had to buy a new one. Do you know someone you could swap with to make sure it isn't the card itself? (My husband swapped his and my cards--that's how we diagnosed the bad card here.)

My Time Capsule disk shows on my iMac but not my MacBook Pro. How do I get the Airport Extreme mounted disk to show as an available Time Machine disk on my MacBook?

I just replaced an Airport Express with a new Airport Extreme. My iMac recognizes the external hard disk I have connected to the Airport Extreme, and my Time Machine is backing up to it. But I can't get my MacBook Pro to recognize the disk as available for Time Machine. Both are running Mavericks, and the MacBook is only a couple of months old.

I cannot get my AirPort Extreme to factory reset

I can't get my AirPort Extreme to factory reset

Pull the power cord from the back of the AirPort Extreme
Wait a few minutes
Hold in the reset button first, and then keep holding it for an additional 10 seconds while you simultaneously plug the power back into the AirPort Extreme
Release the reset button after the hold period
Allow a full minute for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
If the AirPort Extreme is functioning correctly, it has now been reset.
If you try this procedure a few times and the Extreme still will not reset, then you may have a defective Extreme. Take the device to an Apple Store.....if you have one near you.....so they can take a look. Or, contact Apple Support directly.

Help. Is the Airport Extreme Card compatible with my iMac?

Probably stupidly simple, but I'm not sure of the answer. I've tried to get the answer online, but no luck. Can someone tell me if the airport extreme card will work with my iMac?
TIA,

Yes the AirPort Extreme card is the correct card for your iMac.

I cannot get the envy 4502 to communicate with my computer. The CD won't run

I cannot get the envy 4502 to start. I get no on-screen message and the CD won't run

Hi there @Billcotter welcome to the HP community
I saw your post about your Envy 4502 not starting. I am looking for some more information from you to better understand what exactly is happening.
I could very well be wrong, as it sounds like the printer itself is not turning on and the installation is not starting.
Please let me know if the printer will power on, and if so, do you see any errors on the printer?
Will the printer make copies?
Which operating system are you running on your computer?
Just to be a little proactive, I want to include the direct link where you can download and install the printer from the website. Try this method instead of the CD: HP ENVY 4502 e-All-in-One Printer Drivers

I have requested and accepted the most current Firefox program updates with my windows vista system. They are not registering but I am told they are downloaded. Then I cannot get the printer option to work with any version of firefox. in English

I have taken the firefox updates when offered to 4.4. I have the browser as an aside to Internet Explorer 9 as a backup browser. When I use Firefox I am being told my system is not up to date and I need a newer version. I download the version and keep getting told I am not current with firefox. When Firefox DOES work I cannot get any printer icon or settings to enable and allow the printing of a page. I have to use IE9 to get the printer to work. Using eBay I cannot get the uploading of pictures from my computer to consistently operate even though I use small JPG files under 500KB.

There are a lot of IntelliTXT like ''ad'' pop-ups possible.
If your current Adblock Plus filter settings aren't blocking some pop-ups then it is best to take this to the Adblock Plus forum.
