Port mapping through airport

ok so i was having problems trying to do a 1 way video chat with someone on a PC I port mapped the 5000 series ports that are listed in in these discussions and hooray i got it to work...
the only problem is that my gf wants to be able to do one way chats with this person on another laptop....
first i tried duplicating what i did with the port mapping and using her internal IP address but that didnt work.... i wasnt sure it would i figured that would create a conflict....
can anyone tell me how to do this....
i guess what im trying to do is open the ports for anyone inside the my airport network
oh and this is the snow basestation

There is no way to map a external port to multiple
internal IP addresses.
I noticed your response to the "service" that was asked about, by the above poster. It seemed relevant to me, because I wanted to use the ARD "service" to, in fact, reach several computers "behind" the AEBS that I have. The ARD program would be on an outside and public IP address (in other words, "away from home").
If I understand you right, in referencing this person's "service" (here in this post) -- I suppose the same thing applies to ARD, meaning that ARD cannot access more than -one- computer behind an AEBS, from an outside and public IP address. Is that correct?
If that is correct, please look at my other post (for today) where I ask about that very thing. Thanks...

Need help with port mapping on Airport Utility 6.1

Ive been trying to port map on my TC with Airport Utility 6.1 and failing miserably. Port still closed. Can anyone advise where Im going wrong? Am trying to set up my home camera to be viewed outside.
I managed to key in the ports etc under Network and Port Settings. But nothing works. I'm tearing my hair out.
Any suggestions to try would be helpful.
Thanks

Use the 5.6 utility.. it is much easier and I think works better.. although you cannot load 5.6 directly into 10.8 the version for Lion actually works fine.
Download 5.6.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Download unpkg
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/16357/unpkg
Open the AU 5.6 dmg and drag the pkg over the open unpkg.. it will create the directory on the desktop. You can either run it from there or drag the utility to your utilties directory.
Take screen shots of each step. Post them here.
That way we can tell you where it has gone wrong.
What port exactly does the camera need open?
How are you connecting remotely?
ie do you have a fixed public IP?? If not how are you getting IP?
Is the TC the only router in the network.. it is irrelevant unless the TC is the one and only router.

How to set up port mapping in airport extreme?

I just buy a Ip cam (d link) which need to set up port forwarding for outside access.
What can I do? My ISP is netvigator.
How to set up and input which address to the airport utility?
Please help.
Thanks!

Mmm, generally you don't need to do much port mapping in an extreme. Not sure I understand you. What does the d-link do?

Port Mapping...access home network remotely

Hello,
Has anyone successfully established port mapping through the AE (802.11n)?
SSH access has worked for me but nothing else. Apple tech support was courteous but unable to solve problem.
I'm trying to get port mapping (port forwarding on other routers) to work for AFP and FTP.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Greg,
Thanks for your response. I will try it out.
Yes, I did get her the new AE 802.11n.
I am so impressed by it, I would go buy it for myself to add the print server capability, and dual band feature.
To take advantage of N, I will either get a new Macbook Pro, or a new wireless card for my PB G4, preferrably the former.
Cris
Hi Cris,
I have actually been successful now with AFP too.
Does your sister have the new AE 802.11n? That's the
one I have and here's what I did.
1) Open AirPort Utility
2) Select Airport Extreme
3) Menu "Base Station", "Manual Setup"
4) Select Advanced icon
5) Select Port Mapping tab
6) Click "+"
7) Select a service "SSH" or "AFP" which ever you
prefer.
8) For ssh, private tcp port needs to be 22. Public
IP address should be the IP address of your sisters
imac on her local network. Private TCP port should be
22.
AFP is the same setup as ssh, except the Public tcp
port should be any unused port number, for example
5912. (You can get a list of used port numbers here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106439
) and the private tcp port needs to be 548.
Helping your sister out will be much easier when OS
10.5 becomes available later this spring and perhaps
by the end of this month. Go to this link and click
on the iChat icon. It will show you ichat's new
capabilities. http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/
Hope that helps,

Map a port through Airport Extreme to access my NAS remotely through FTP

Hello Everyone,
Was hoping someone might be able to enlighten me. I recently purchased a WD ShareSpace. It has the ability to setup FTP access to it. I am currently using an Airport Extreme and I seem to be having trouble finding information on how to setup my AE to allow my WD be accessed outside my router. I have looked at the settings for port mapping and assume I need to setup a Service in there for FTP Access, but regarding all the UTP ports and addresses, I am a little lost.
I cant seem to find a simple site that kind of goes into details on more or less what is what, how this and that work. I do well with networking but a lot of this port mapping and forwarding stuff is somewhat new to me.
Any help would be great, thank you!
Tim

The WD ShareSpace has a bunch of ways (it seems) to connect to it remotely, but I know that I would still need to open access up through the router.
It probably is not worth it. WD makes it seem easy and tells how to access the NAS by typing in my ip and all, but I get the feeling it is not as easy nor secure as they make it sound.
There is a built in menu regarding FTP through WD web configuration, so I got the impression it might be easier.
Simply all I want to do is access my music and movies from the NAS elsewhere. I get the feeling this is not the best move in regards to security.
Thanks!

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"

How to Enable Port Mapping on my AirPort Express? - Screens Connect

Hi, everyone. I recently purchased a VNC app called Screens 3 and downloaded its desktop assistant, Screens Connect. The process was pretty straightforward and I was easily able to connect my iPhone and iPad to my MacBook Air over my local Wi-Fi. However, I am still unable to connect to my MacBook over LTE or any other Wi-Fi. Here's a look at what the Screens Connect preference panel looks like:
As you can see there aren't a whole lot of options, but Port Mapping is apparently a no-go. I'm guessing this is the resaon I can't connect over anything other than my local Wi-Fi. If anyone here could help me turn that red into a green, I'd be forever grateful. Thanks!

The instructions for enabling port mapping are pretty straightforward, but it never seems to make any difference. If it helps, I am technically living in a college dorm, and have my AirPort Express plugged directy into the wall's ethernet port. I'm assuming, using bridge-mode and all, that I actually have two routers, and the university's router is the one that I need to enable port mapping on. If I'm correct, is there a way to enable port mapping on my side without having to go through my university? Again, this is just conjecture. But the steps are fairly simple, so I'm not sure what else it could be.

Setup Airport Extreme Port Mapping for Swann DVR16-2600

Have a Swann video surv system and want to use iPhone 4 and Web to view camera displays remotely. It requires setting up port mapping for the DVR so it can serve ports 80 and 9000 to the remote display app and web screens.
Have signed up for a static public ip address from ISP since they do not allow port mapping using DHCP. Trying to setup so I can use the SwannView application on iPhone 4 and use Webview in browser to access/see security camera displays on/through the DVR. Not working correctly - only partial success.
Reconfigured Airport Extreme for the new ip address and tried to setup port mapping for dvr which needs a web port 84 and another port 9000. Can connect to DVR on internal network using the public static ip:84 and the internal static ip:84 but it only shows a SWANN splash page and an error about not able to load ipaddress:84/65536. Seems like something is preventing the Web display from completely launching - should see a login page but not getting it.
Airport is set to use static ips in the 10.0.1.2 to 10.0.1.10 range with the DVR assigned 10.0.1.5. Tried to set the port mapping for 84 and 9000 but not sure those are working correctly. Swann support tried accessing the DVR over the public ip address and they cannot get through. So suspect problem is with configuring the Airport Port Mapping settings and services, etc. on the Airport Extreme. I can get to the DVR internally using the public ip address:84 and the internal static ip address of the DVR:84 but support cannot get to it from external web.
Tried both Safari and IE 5 and both show same problem trying to launch the Swann login page, etc. iPhone Swannview app doesn't work either.
Any ideas about proper port mapping settings for those ports in the Airport Extreme? Is this correct setting for the Service Type: _http._tcp and do you need to add settings for the public and private udp ports. The udp port fields are empty. Only have entries in the Private IP Address and Public and Private TCP port fields.
Is there a way in Safari or IE5 to set security to see the public ip address as a friendly site and not block anything from loading?

Set port mapping for 85 (not 84) and 9000
Also, if you haven't, be sure to go into the Swann DVR setup and disable the "enable UPnP" option. The UPnP protocol will not work with Port mapping feature of the Apple Airport Extreme.

How do I configure my airport utility for port mapping?

I am trying to view my FOSCAM cameras over the internet while away from home. They work fine in my house using Wi-Fi. Instructions say to do port forwarding. I have cameras set up, but can't get my router to port forward. I found "Port Forwarding" in Airport Utlility then NETWORK. 'Router mode: DHCP and NAT';on 'Port Settings I click on the "+" at the bottom. 'Private IP Address: populates to 10.0.1.201'. What goes in the other blocks?

Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details on how to configure Port Mapping on the AirPort routers. I would suggest that you check your FOSCAM documentation as to what TCP and/or UDP ports are required to access their IP cameras from a remote location.

Airport Extreme v7.3.3 Port Mapping Port 80

I have a DVR in my home which is connected to my home network. It has a static IP address. I would like to be able to utilize its mobile app from any mobile/cellular network. The manufacturer of my DVR tells me that I need to open up Port 80 on my router, which is an Airport Extreme running v7.3.3.
I have tried looking up solutions and have found similar results but nothing for the AirPort running v7.x.x. Everything I have found is for version v6.x.x or v5.x.x.
I have tried using the following examples with no success, which may be fault on my part, as well as the document:
AirPort - Port Mapping Basics using AirPort Utility v6.x

Re: How do I open ports on my airport extreme and assign a fixed IP Address for a device connected to my network?
Any further advice would be welcome. Thank you. I will gladly provide further details upon request/as needed.

I have tried looking up solutions and have found similar results but nothing for the AirPort running v7.x.x. Everything I have found is for version v6.x.x or v5.x.x.
Unfortunately, you have the firmware version of the AirPort mixed up with the software version of AirPort Utility, the application used to setup and administer the AirPort router.
Your AirPort was setup using software either by AirPort Utility 6.x...or....an iPad or iPhone running the iOS version of AirPort Utility. Either of those applications will allow you to set up port mapping......IF.....the AirPort is setup as the main router on your network.
Or, in other words....you do not have the AirPort connected to another modem/router on the network.
Now might be a very good time to confirm on the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem", since that will dictate the next move as far as setting up ports.

Airport Express Port Mapping

I have an Airport Extreme as my main router base station. I recently bought an Airport Express in an effort to connect a Slingbox Pro to it. My Slingbox works ok with my laptops connected to my network but it won't work when trying to setup internet viewing. According to the Slingbox tech, is due to Airport Express not having Port Mapping. Is this true? Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello DAVE72. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
According to the Slingbox tech, is due to Airport Express not having Port Mapping. Is this true?
Not true! The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) supports port mapping. If you are using the AX to provide Internet access from your AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) to the Slingbox, only the AEBS would need to be configured for port mapping.

Where do I find the port mapping option in the new Airport Utility?

I'm using the new Airport Utility w/ my AEBS. I'm running it in 802.11n '11a compatablity mode" w/ my Macbook (no 11n).
I can't seem to see the tab to set my port mapping. Where is it?
I don't see it in the Airport or Advanced settings in the Utility.

Are you in bridge mode? Under Internet > Connection Sharing, is the choice set to Off (Bridge Mode)?
Or... have you discovered that you can double-click on a base station or choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu?
