Port access on my Airport
I posted something like this a week or so ago and got no response but I am wondering how I can open ports 25 and 80 so that my Outlook mail will work. It receives but will not send.
Thanks for any help,
-Ryan
I doubt opening the ports will actually solve your problem.
From your previous post:
]"Sending ' reported error (0x80042109): 'Outlook is unable to connect to your outgoing (SMTP)e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider(ISP).
Some ISPs only allow you to send e-mail when connected to their servers.
What happens you remove the Airport and connect the computer direct?

Can,t access wifi via airport after left my mbp idle for just 1 minute
i can,t access wifi via airport after left my mbp idle for just 1 minute, i need to turn airport off & turn airport on if i left my mbp idle for just 1 minute or less...why this thing happen? anyone can help thanks in advance
Something that came to mind after rereading you post relates to the particulars of a "hard" reset on the Snow.
A “hard” reset removes current setting from the base station. You must then connect to the base station using the AirPort Admin Utility and upload AirPort 2.0 or later software to return the base station to its default settings. A base station in a hard reset is only accessible through the LAN port, not via wireless connections ... so attempting to access with the AAU, via a wireless client, will not work.
The following is the process to reload the AirPort software: AirPort Base Station (Dual Ethernet) : How to reload software from Mac OS X -
How do I add more ports to my new Airport Extreme?
How do I add more ports to my new Airport Extreme? What do I need to buy?
Thinking to leave as is for now- one 2013 extreme.
That would certainly keep things a lot simpler.
Does it seem right that using speed test I'm getting similar speeds, no matter if I'm connected via wi-fi, or Ethernet?
A very good sign assuming those speeds are reasonably close to the your plan offered by your ISP. The Extreme itself is capable of much faster speeds than your ISP can ever hope to provide.
I'm thinking that all the speed in the world is not going to change Time Warner Cable, the provider for earthlink cable
Not sure what you mean here. Time Warner provides various plans, some up to 50 Mbps. I get 60+ consistently with this plan. I had a 30 Mpbs plan before that consistently delivered about 35-36 Mbps.
The math is simple. If you download a lot of files from the Internet, a 50 Mbps connection is going to take half as long to download a file as a 25 Mbps connection, for example.
One word of caution though....if you try a higher speed plan...plan to stay, as you will never go back to slower speeds once you have sampled higher speeds. Comcast now owns Time Warner by the way. I don't know whether that will be a good thing or a bad thing. -
No internet access from my airport
Hi there,
I have a problem with my two airport express. I'll explain first my config
I have one Router (from the internet provider so not apple) connected to an ADSL line with ethernet hardwired Conections to both Airport express.
the to AE have the same name (SSID) and password and are configured as Create a new Network. this allow me not only to extend my Network reach but also to use the jack conections in 2 different rooms for 2 difrerent Hifi systems for the airplay feature. they are in bridge mode.
the Router from my Internet provider as a different SSID on purpose because I don't want my computer to connect to that one when I'm closer to it since I always had more transmission problems with the airplay when connected to a non apple Router. the sound is often cut while with the AE it always flows better.
the problem is that the airplay works but the internet connection is very bad, I mean it last minutes to open a page, and if I want to surf from my computer I have to choose the other SSID and then no problem.
when I open the airport utility I can see that sometimes it's all green but the internet switch constantly from green to yelow.
I'm just in the process of changing my internet provider which means that I actually have in this moment 2 internet connections and 2 routers from 2 diff providers and therefore have made the test with boths of them with the same result.
that's it. Any idea?
thanks in advanceHi,
this is getting worse. as I was unable to solve the problem I decided to start from scratch and therefore I have reset to default values my 2 Airports.
then in my airport utility I only have the Internet access, the earth globe, and it's green, so I can surf the web by connecting to the SSID of the router of my internet provider.
then I plug into the power one airport. It appears in the left-hand upper corner of the Airport utility. I click on it ( at that moment my wifi is not anymore to the Internet router but to the airport itself) and follow the steps to configure it.
it say that it will be configured to create a network so I give him same SSID and pwd as the one from the OLO provider, it tells me to connect the cable to the Router, i do it and it goes to the next step where it asks me to switch off for few minutes the internet router and switch it on again. I do it and after a while it says that an error occured while confiring the airport.
At that moment I loose access to my airport, I does not appear neither on the Wifi panel as its MAC address (or whatever the hexa number is) nor within the airport utility as an airport connected to my internet router.
so the only way left to get back to it is to reset it again.
I did this process with the 2 airports, and met the same problem so I guess I'm doing something wrong.
where is my mistake ?
thanks in advance. -
Where can I get Port Access Covers
I purchased a MacPro with 4 video cards from the Apple Store, of course they did not keep with my purchase the Port Access Covers. Does anyone have any idea how to get 3 of these. I have called everyone on Apples so called Tech support, Apple Stores etc. Seems to me they should have shipped them with my Mac Pro since I paid for them.
Hi Alan,
if you send me 1 of the 8 Cinema-Displays you presumably bought with your 4 graphic cards Mac Pro goodness, I'll send you 1 of my port access covers
But joking aside, these parts should actually come in a standard size, so if you have some old computer-wreck somewhere that still has the covers, you should be able to use it in your Mac Pro.
Other than that you can buy them pretty inexpensive, for example here or here.
Hope that helps, Lars

How can I access HDD on Airport Extreme with iPad
Without third-party software I don't think you can. An iPad has no user-accessible interface to a file system. Just what is it you're trying to do?

Port forwarding Time Capsule Airport 7.6.3
Network problems. I want to run a free software called Maptool 1.3b89. I created some sweet maps in OS version 10.7.5, and assembled players, but I can't connect with other computers. I have the Time Capsule (router) with Airport version 7.6.3, updated, Cisco cable modem. I updated Java when I installed Maptool, less than a month ago.
The Maptool Networking FAQ says UPnP is by far the easiest approach, furthermore,"(An alternative is called NAT-PMP, but they are functionally the same so the second won't be mentioned again.) "This sounds as if one can plow ahead and get the same result. Believing they were functionally the same, I enabled NAT-PMP, attempted to connect with the UPnP box checked, and Maptool returned: "no internet gateway devices found UPnP port mapping will not be available."
So I asked, "If I get the server enabled, will it work for windows, or just for mac clients? Is this where it is functionally the same?"
Here is the response, though I'm not certain it addresses my concern: "The NFAQ is incorrect if it says that NAT-PMP is the same as UPNP. NAT-PMP is a new protocol from Apple that only applies to the AirPort routers, although a lot of other routers now support it as well. I'll fix the FAQ. There will be a b90 build either tonight or tomorrow that will fix the UPNP bug, but it won't help with NAT-PMP since it's a different protocol. I'll see if I can find a way to support NAT-PMP but it's not likely to be soon."
Does that translate to, give up or get a different computer, Mac user?
I searched these forums. The suggestions aren't talking about version 7.6.3 of Airport. They tell you to go to port mapping, which is not an option/selection offered. The most useful post says my version of Airport is a toy hammer with no functionality, go get old Airport, version 5.6. Did that using Unpkg. Did not run both airports at the same time. Followed another post that referenced Bit Torrent, thus, I enabled Nat-PMP, and mapped all four ports to 51234, the default port for Maptool. Airport 5.6 returned: The airport utilty was unable to find your Airport wirless device after restarting, the settings for this wirless device have successfully updated, but there was a problem rejoining the wirless network or finding the Airport wireless device. you may need to select your network from the Wi-fi menu and try again.
Lost wireless. Did a backup from Time machine and still couldn't connect wirelessly. Restarted and the wirless returned.
The NFAQ says UPnP won't work with port forwarding (at the same time) but that is what seems to need to happen on a Mac. I tried portforward.com. Does not have my router. Followed instructions for the only featured Apple/Macintosh product, Airport Extreme. Not even close.
I have clicked all the advanced buttons and menu choices through Airport and through (settings)network, and figured out you can click on the + sign. The outdated portforward.com info says, "enter both the public and private boxes with the same port number," and shows two boxes, but I have four boxes: IPV4 port mapping, public (and private) UDP ports, Public (and private) TCP ports. Should I fill all four with port 51234 and use the provided IP address?
I can't make my IP address static. I followed the portforward guide and lost my internet connection. Portforward Open Port check tool says, "this program cannot be run in dos mode," with a giant code strip following. Excuse my ignorance, but why is a dos program set up to run a test that is embedded in a Macintosh installation guide? Is that an emulator or a different dos? Shouldn't it be Unix or something? It says if I have no internet connection (which I don't at this point) to restore my original settings. Futile. The user guide offered here isn't my software version but it says to enable NAT-PNP and give the ip adress to the host, but Maptool isn't going to use this special IP because it will only see the public one, right?
I was tempted to buy one of their products like PCconfig but here is what they say, "Instead of manually configuring your network router, just pick your app from a list and update your router with a single click." but they don't bother to indicate whether it works for mac, don't feature my router, and it says you must pick an app, but Maptool is not featured in the giant list of users that, "you are forwarding ports for." I tried to download PF Setup Static IP Address but the download was a Windows app, so I couldn't run it.
I have tried just enabling Nat-PMP by itself, Canyouseeme.org returns "firewall or ISP is blocking certain parts, error, I could not see your service on (my IP address) port 51234." I have tried port mapping by itself to port 51234, which causes the time capsule to crash, requiring a backup and reboot to restore the wireless network, and both together, which is contrary to the way it is supposedly done with UPnP.
If I installed Windows that wouldn't change how it networks. What is my next step, buy another router?
Downloaded Hamachi. The tutorial no longer launches. The tech data has removed the mac screen shots and not replaced them, but I can see the headings and blank spots where they should be. I assume they aren't supporting new mac users. Logmein was just as obscure. I don't feel very confident about either product. The freeware Virtual Network Provider gets reviews like, "hard to use," and "complex interface."
Thanks in advance for your consideration.If you want to use maptool and it is only going to work with UPNP type router. Then simply replace the TC with a standard router.. it is less than $100 for a very reasonable one like Netgear WNDR3800 which has 3rd party firmware like dd-wrt, openwrt and gargoyle as well as netgear which is pretty but lacks features.
Bridge the TC and keep it as backup target for TM which is what it does best.. and wireless AP for apple devices. -
Airport Utility 5.6 is not supported in Mavericks. How do I access my old Airport Express?
I have an old Airport Express streaming iTunes to a Bose Wave Radio. I wanted to change the name, but it requires Airport Utility 5.6 and that isn't supported by Mavericks. How do I access my old airport express with a computer on OSX 9?
Yes, if you are running Tiger 10.4.x and have AirPort Utility 5.4.2 installed.

This question has gone unanswered several times on this forum in the past but I thought I would try it once more.
Is there any Java API that is in, or will work with J2ME to allow direct read and write to the serial port similar to the functionality that javax.comm provides for j2se.
This would be useful for a project where a palmos device is used to communicate with equipment used to monitor industrial processes.Some MIDP 1.0 devices support access to the Serial
Port.
I have done it with Motorola i85, i50 (iDen) and
Motorola T720i.
I think 95cl also supports it. I'm ALSO having problems with serial port access on
my T-Mobile Moto T720i phone. I've had MUCH success
with the Nextel i85, i50, i95cl, etc phones, but the
same code isn't running on the T720i.
What do I need to do differently???
Thanks,

PORT_ACCESS
TCP|*|*|192.168.1.121|* \
$C$[IMTA_LIB:conn_throttle.so,throttle,$1,1]\
$N421$ Too$ Many$ Connection$E
Anyone has any idea what does these lines do? Especially, I would like to know whether $1 refers to the 1st "*" or the 2nd "*" ??I suggest having a look at the improved documentation for 6.1:
http://docs.sun.com/source/817-6266/filter.html
A particular IP address can be limited to how often it connects to the MTA by using the shared library, conn_throttle.so in the Port Access mapping table. Limiting connections by particular IP addresses may be useful for preventing excessive connections used in denial-of-service attacks.
conn_throttle.so is a shared library used in a PORT_ACCESS mapping table to limit MTA connections made too frequently from particular IP addresses. All configuration options are specified as parameters to the connection throttle shared library as follows:
$[msg_svr_base/lib/conn_throttle.so,throttle,IP-address,max-rate]
IP-address is the dotted-decimal address of the remote system. max-rate is the connections per minute that shall be the enforced maximum rate for this IP-address.
The routine name throttle_p may be used instead of throttle for a penalizing version of the routine. throttle_p will deny connections in the future if they�ve connected too many times in the past. If the maximum rate is 100, and 250 connections have been attempted in the past minute, not only will the remote site be blocked after the first 100 connections in that minute, but they�ll also be blocked during the second minute. In other words, after each minute, max-rate is deducted from the total number of connections attempted and the remote system is blocked as long as the total number of connections is greater than the maximum rate.
If the IP-address specified has not exceeded the maximum connections per minute rate, the shared library callout will fail.
If the rate has been exceeded, the callout will succeed, but will return nothing. This is done in a $C/$E combination as in the example:
PORT_ACCESS
TCP|*|25|*|* \
$C$[msg_svr_base/lib/conn_throttle.so,throttle,$1,10] \
$N421$ Connection$ not$ accepted$ at$ this$ time$E
Where,
$C continues the mapping process starting with the next table entry; uses the output string of this entry as the new input string for the mapping process.
$[msg_svr_base/lib/conn_throttle.so,throttle,$1,10] is the library call with throttle as the library routine, $1 as the server IP Address, and 10 the connections per minute threshold.
$N421$ Connection$ not$ accepted$ at$ this$ time rejects access and returns the 421 SMTP code (transient negative completion) along with the message �Connection not accepted at this time.�
$E ends the mapping process now. It uses the output string from this entry as the final result of the mapping process. -
Want to add a 6 TB G-Raid (Mac os extended) ext drive to a 2Tb time capsule, using a powered usb with the TC usb port. Using the airport utility 5.6 on iMAC (10.7.3). Went to manual setup,then disk. Have options of the TC or 6TB. Won't allow update to the 6TB

I am not 100% what isn't allowed.. but I am assuming you want to spread the backup across the two disks.. internal TC and 6TB external.. this is not possible.. It has to be one or the other. TC has no way to build a raid JBOD or anything else. Nor would you want to as that is the most likely to fail and kill your data.
Let me add, backing up 6TB over USB on TC.. will be the most excruciating experience of your life.. cf child birth or passing kidney stones.. large ones.. being the male equivalent. -
Hi,
I just wondered if anybody knows where to order (in the UK) port access covers for the Mac Pro (early 2009). I just need to cover a port, and cannot find anywhere on the internet that sells them.
Any help would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks,
AdrianHi Dave,
Is my mind playing tricks, or is that a new bar I see? Regardless, my heartiest congratulations!
Yes, what I was trying to get across to the poster is that while an Apple site may not list them, they could have them anyway. And, two, calling an Apple Tech might get some through them. They will send out small items from time to time.
Lastly, I know for myself I have a dozen or so for different models, including this one, hanging around somewhere. A walk-in Apple Store must have many more than that, just taking up space.
And truly, the last, last, temporary but effective solution one can do, as I had to awhile ago when my room looked like a meteor hit,... Duct tape. Even has the added benefit of being a dust magnet, but it's not cool looking, so temporary only. -
Serial port access time slows in version 6 to 7 upgrade
Hi - I am in the process of upgrading an project from LV 6 to LV
7, the serial port access works well in LV6 but after the
upgrade, the serial port access is slow in LV if the application is
compiled into an exe. We are running Windows 2K on all machines
and have installed the LV7.0 runtime engine on the PC that is running
the executable. If I run the application on a machine that has
the full LV7.0 development software on it, the executable runs
just like it used to under LV6.0
What am I forgetting?? The application is built into one exe that
has all of the sub vi's included. I have checked the box on the
application builder that says included serial port support.
Help! - We have 3000 PCBs sitting in manufacturing waiting to go to test until I solve this problem
Thank youHi
I just recently finished a project in which I had to upgrade code from LV 6 to LV 7.1. After I did that the serial port actually worked but all the Fieldpoint devices that were connected to the system didn't work. The problem ultimately was the NI Fieldpoint Drivers. After I installed the newest drivers from NI everything worked perfectly. I don't know why your problem is occurring, but I wanted to reasure you that there isn't a problem with the serial ports when upgrading to LV7.1 (I don't know about LV7).BTW, I had LV6.1 development system installed on the computer, but didn't have the LV7.1 (All I had was an EXE file).
So, try installing the newest drivers. Maybe that can help.

Extend Wireless Network using a Telstra technicolor Gateway wireless Router to Airpot extreme but Airport will only except "join a wireless network (which it does) not "extend a wireless network" (Led turns yellow and I can not get a network working on the Airpor Extreme ethernet ports but can ping Airport extreme from Technicolor Router.
Airport gets it address DHCP.Funny how I can ping the Extreme but the Hard Ethernet ports dont seem to work correctly.
When the AirPort Extreme is configured to "Join" a wireless network, the Ethernet ports are not enabled.
Oddly, the AirPort Express has a special feature that will allow it to to "Join" virtually any wireless network.....and the Ethernet port can be enabled. So, an Express would work for your purpose to provide an Ethernet connection to the media player. This assumes that the Express is located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from your main router.
Note that the Express will not provide any additional wireless coverage when it "Joins". -
