Port scan confirmed open ports on my Airport

Hi, I just did a port scan on my out word IP address. This is the add that is on the network side of my AP. I am using an APExtreme Latest version. I thought my settings were secure, but when my portscan showed these open ports I realized it wasn't.
OPEN:
53 DNS (good)
554 rtsp (QTime?)
5009 (bad?)
7070 arcp (QtimeStreaming?)
10000 ndmp (bad?)
Question how do I secure these specific ports?
Thanks you!!

Hi again BD,
+The Router wouldn't be set to DMZ to the Printer by chance would it?+
It's not something I would consider doing, or have on my network. Can something like this be logged? (well, that said why leave a log file that would be detectable?) Or is there a test, maybe a command similar to ifconfig or some such debugger?
+Seems like the Printer must be using Bonjour only to avertize itself.+
I thought I had disabled Bonjour using a suggested method to make an archive of ARDesktop, trash the app and leave the zip in the CoreServices folder. Maybe, something else is directing it to the outward address?
+Can't you set the Printers IP to a Static Local IP? in the same range as your Router+
Well I tried that but the "enter" command remained grayed out in spite of verifying the printer address. I believe AirPortUtility has an automatic function, at least I remember, when I set up the printer a few weeks ago, the process being transparent. It did all of the work for me. Since I started having problems, though, nothing has worked.
Well, if you have any ideas or you see something out of place let me know.
Thanks!
Pat

  • How do I open the same ports on an Airport Extreme Base Station for multiple computers at the same time?

    As the title suggests...
    I have a mix of five Mac and PC's at home using an Airport Extreme Base Station as the router.   I need many ports opened on the AEBS for all of the computers- not just one computer.  (for example: three people want to play TF2 on Steam at the same time; each machine needs the correct ports open on the router).   Port forwarding  only allows me to forward a given port to a single IP, yet I need that port open for five differnt IP's, all at the same time. 
    How do I do that on an AEBS?
    In the same way, I have a small office of four iMacs using an old airport with the same exact issue.   I would like to be able to connect to all of them remotely with Apple Remote Desktop, but the port forwarding on the airport only allows a port to forward to a single IP.   I want to be able to tunnel into the office network and log onto any machine behind the Airport extreme... not just a single IP.    I currently have it set up where I can tunnel into the office from my house, I can find the one machine that the port forwarding has been assigned to, I can log on and everything is just fine... with one machine.    How do I open the firewall for the other machines? 
    TL,DR version:  How do you open ports on an Airport Extreme Base Station instead of forwarding ports?   Forwarding ports doesn't work for multiple IP's.  

    You can open a single or multiple ports to a single device or different ports to different devices, but you cannot open the same port to multiple devices via the AirPort Utility for the Apple routers.

  • How can I open ports on my AirPort Extreme, from WINDOWS?

    I have an Airport Extreme as my router, and I have a Windows-based computer. I need to open ports on the router (ironically, it is for my Apple TV).
    However, even though I can use the Airport Utility for Windows (latest version 5.5.3), I cannot open ports from the application.
    Everywhere I look, I am supposed to have a firewall tab in the Advanced section, but I do not have it. The only tabs that I have in Advanced are:

    MobileMe
    IPv6
    How can I open ports on my Airport Extreme router from Windows?

    Is your AirPort Extreme the only router in your network configuration?

  • Opening a port issue: I Need to open a port in an airport extreme.

    I Need to open a port in an airport extreme, but I'm connected through an airport express in bridge mode.  I need to access a specific computer inside my network through that port to be able to use it as a server.  I can't seem to find the correct way to set everything up.  I've tried opening the port and everytime I check it through telnet or any open check tool on the net it keeps saying the port is closed.  I'm stumped.

    After digging around it looks like Snow Leopard doesn't use ipfw for opening ports.
    Does anyone know how to open ports in Snow Leopard? Apple don't seem to have any info on this - besides the allow incoming connections for certain applications.
    Will try WaterRoof and see what happens.
    Cheers

  • Is it possible to scan with an Multifunction Printer Epson Stylus 8300 series trough the USB port of the Airport Extreme?

    I have an Epson Stylus 8300 series, and plugged in the USB output of my Airport Extreme, with that I can print without problems from any PC connected to my WiFi network, but can not in any way to scan photos and documents over the network , and every time I need to do this activity, I have to connect my printer directly to the computer. Could someone help me with this problem?

    Sorry, but Epson and other manufacturers have not provided full featured drivers that would allow advanced features like copy, scan and maintenance to work when their devices are connected to the USB port on the AirPorts.
    Only the print function will work when the All-in-One device is connected to the USB port on the AirPorts.
    If you can connect the All-in-One using wireless only or Ethernet, most manufacturers have provided full functionality with these types of network connections.

  • How do I forward ports on my Airport Express?

    I've been trying to get my ports open for a while now, but haven't succeeded. Here's my setup:
    I have an Airport Express connected to a Dynalink RTA1320 ADSL2+ modem. I am running 10.5.2.
    On the Dynalink modem, I have set 10.0.1.1 as a DMZ host, which is the address of the Airport Express.
    I understand that in Airport Utility, I need to set private and public ports, as well as IP address. I am using NPMP with the Airport Express, and I have a default host set as 10.0.1.253. This is the IP address I am using on my Mac, and the one that I am using when forwarding ports on the Airport Express.
    Even after doing all this, online port checkers still say that the ports I have forwarded are closed, and I can't work out why.
    However: I am using XTorrent as my BitTorrent client. I have the port 49350 set as the default port in that application. XTorrent has the ability to open ports by itself, and it seems to have succeeded at doing this, even though I cannot open other ports manually. 49350 reads as open when using an online port checker.
    These are the questions I have:
    1. Am I inputting the right IP addresses?
    2. Is NPMP doing me any good, or should I be using straight DHCP?
    3. Am I doing the right thing by setting 10.0.1.1 as a DMZ?
    4. Am I doing anything else wrong?
    Thanks very much for your input in advance.

    On the Dynalink modem, I have set 10.0.1.1 as a DMZ host, which is the address of the Airport Express.
    This is probably incorrect. 10.0.1.1 is the LAN IP address of the AirPort Express (AX). You want to use the IP address provided by the Dynalink to the AX. It is the IP address used on the WAN side of the AX.
    ...Airport Express, and I have a default host set as 10.0.1.253.
    If you configure the AX for Default Host operation, ALL of the ports are forwarded to the assigned IP address. The is no other configuration needed to forward the ports.

  • Multifunctional on ethernet port of the airport extreme

    Hi
    I'm desperately seeking a solution to be able to scan with a multifunctional that is connected through the ethernet port of the airport extreme. Printing works fine from any mac in the network, but scanning does not; not from the multifunctional, not through programs such as adobe photoshop (TWAIN). In Adobe, choosing import, the multifunctional is listed, but when trying to connect a dialog appears saying that the machine is not ready.
    Please can anyone give a tip ?
    Thanks

    If this hard drive is part of a NAS device, then yes it should be accessable from either a Mac or PC while connected to the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) by Ethernet.

  • What's the most recent opinion about Time Machine backups to Hard Drives connected to the USB port on the Airport Extreme Base Station (5th generation)?

    I have been searching the Apple communities and Internet for a final answer.  I just bought an Airport Extreme Base Station (5th generation) and LaCie d2 quadra 1TB external drive as a replacement for TWO failed Time Capsules, neither of which Apple would replace due to failed power supplies.  I formatted the 1TB drive using Disk Utility (Mac OS extended (journaled)) from my MacBook Pro, and then plugged into the Airport Extreme Base Station USB port.  The Airport Extreme Base Station see the Hard Drive, and my MacBook Pro sees the Hard Drive in my finder under shared resources.  Time Machine, however, does not see the drive.  Is there a solution for this problem?  If Time Machine will not work, is there another software product out there that will work, like Carbon Copy.  Having to plug the backup drive into the USB port of your laptop every evening kind of defeats the purpose of having a laptop.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Keeping in mind that this is not supported by Apple, I have been successful at doing the following:
    1) Format the entire drive (1 Partition) as Mac Extended (Journaled). You must click in Options and set it as a GUID Partition Table (first option)
    2) Plug drive via USB to AEBS
    3) Using Airport Utility, use Manual Setup, then under Disks, select the new Disk and click File Sharing, then Enable File Sharing and Secured Shared Disks (recommended, of course). Other settings are up to you.
    4) IMPORTANT: you will NOT see this Disk in Time Machine until you open Finder and double-click on it. You will not need to do this again (hopefully).
    5) Now it should appear in Time Machine. Remember to exclude any large files like Virtual Machines, since they will be re-backed-up (is that a word?) every time it changes in any way.
    6) Remember that the first backup (over WiFi) is the longest. Leave the computer alone during this period.
    Good luck, and let us all know how it went for you!

  • I have a HP Laserjet P1102w printer hooked up to the USB port of my Airport Extreme. I'm able to print to the printer wirelessly from my MacBook Pro. My iPad (2nd gen) can't find the printer. What do I need to do?

    My iPad is on the same network as the Airport Extreme. The HP printer is on the list of Airprint printers but I'm not using it as a wireless printer, per se, as it's hooked up to the USB port on the Airport Extreme.
    I installed the HP ePrint app on my iPad. Unfortunately, the app could not find the printer either. 
    As mentioned earlier, I'm able to print wirelessly to the HP printer via my MacBook Pro.

    Since I'm able to print to the HP printer from my MacBook Pro using this configuration, shouldn't I be able to print to the printer from my iPad, especially when all of the devices are on/using the same network?
    Not necessarily. AirPrint uses a protocol separate from the communication protocol used for the Extreme's USB port. The HP printer may disable AirPrint when its USB port connected to a valid device, which is my reason for recommending you use it wirelessly.
    From AirPrint Basics:
    AirPrint printers connected using Bluetooth or shared through a USB port of a Mac, PC, AirPort Base Station, or Time Capsule are not supported.
    AirPrint printers connected by Ethernet are supported in OS X.
    You may get more competent assistance from HP. See this HP support forum topic: iPhone & iPad can't Airprint to p1102w LaserJet
    HP's Mac support has always been miserable though. I have been much happier since I abandoned HP and started buying Brother printers. They just work.

  • Is it possible to print from Windows 8.1 to a printer connected to the USB port on an Airport Express?

    Is it possible to print from Windows 8.1 to a printer connected to the USB port on an Airport Express?
    a) HP printer with USB port only (no ethernet port) connected to Airport Express
    b) No issue printing from Macs
    Tests
    1) Installed Bonjour 2 - does not find printer (now uninstalled)
    2) Bonjour 3 is listed in programs but no way to access
    3) Using TCPIP address (and no Bonjour) gives 'Unsupported Personality' error when printing test page
    Regards
    Richard
    p.s. why are all Windows 8.1 questios n the forum 'Locked' with no reply?

    This is possible, but not with Bonjour or any other fixes.  It is just a printer set up based on the Port name of the Airport, 10.0.1.1.
    I found the answer on YouTube, Title: Windows Printing For Apple AirPort Extreme without Bonjour Wireless wifi.

  • Can I use the Airport Express to connect to a Linksys Wireless Network and then use the Ethernet port on the Airport for a wired connection to a device for internet access?  Would I be able to then also use that Ethernet pt to a Ntwk Hub for more wired c

    Thanks for the help.  Looked but not clear on what I am trying to do as being possible.  Can I use an Airport Express to connect wireless to a Linksys Wireless Router, such that I can then use the Ethernet ports on the Airport to either connected to a PC wired, or even use a hub off the Airport Express to allow multiple wired connections to it? 
    I am not looking to have the Airport Express extend my wireless network, just connect to it and provide me wired connections in a different location from where my Linksys Route is located.  Would prefer to replace Linksys with all Apple, but just not possible financially yet.  Thanks for the help.

    If the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is an 802.11n model, then yes, you can reconfigure it as a wireless Ethernet bridge. In this configuration, the AX would join the wireless network provided by the Linksys router and its Ethernet port would be enabled for either a single wired device or for an Ethernet hub or switch for multiple devices.

  • How to disable Ethernet Port on 2003 Airport Extreme Base Station

    I have a roommate who does not help with the cable bill. He is always plugging his computer into the ethernet port of the Airport base station (no wireless card in his computer). The Base Station sit on top of the cable box in the living where its plugged directly into the cable box for internet access. Unfortunately moving the cable box or base station is not an option. How do I disable the ethernet port or prevent him from having access to the base staion?

    +How do I disable the ethernet port or prevent him from having access to the base staion?+
    You could prevent him from connecting using wireless, but not ethernet.
    On second thought, you could hide his ethernet cable. For a permanent solution, you could always fill the ports with glue, but would probably regret it at some point.

  • How to add Ethernet ports to an Airport Extreme Base Station?

    I have successfully connected an HP Office Jet 6310 to the Airport Extreme Base Station, after downloading the latest software from HP. It is printing wirelessly, and it is great so far.
    The only problem is that the cable modem connected to ADSL has only one Ethernet port, and the Airport Extreme Base Station also has one Ethernet port. However, I need one more port to connect a phone (Vonage Telephone Adapter = VTA).
    What is the easiest way to achieve this? I saw several other messages discussing hubs and routers, but the answer is not clear yet. If I purchase an additional router, should it be connected between the cable modem and the Airport Extreme Base Station, or the other way round?
    Any help or advice would be appreciated!
    Thank you in advance for your time.
    MacBook Pro with 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    One final vital piece of information, which should be my conclusion on this topic.
    Following the advice received, I purchased a Switch from Linksys. Since the device didn't work for my purpose (dividing the Ethernet connexion into an Ethernet line for the HP printer and the Vonage phone), I called the Linksys support.
    I was told that what I needed was not a switch, but a router. I thus had to get reimbursed for the switch and hunt for the proper router.
    Finally, today, I have been able to find the item corresponding to my needs:
    A Belkin Wireless G Router F5D7230-4
    It costs less than 50 US$ and has all the necessary Ethernet ports. The setup is very simple, and I got it operational within a couple of minutes, despite some small problems getting the setup Wizard to work. It is Mac OS X compatible.
    Thus, at the end, I have got the HP 6310 Office printer and the Vonage VTA phone working together, with a robust Wireless network including WPA security. I would recommend this type of setting.
    The only trouble is that the AirMac Extreme Base Station has become completely useless! I will perhaps keep it as a souvenir, or as a decoration in the living room... This wouldn't have happened if the creators of this nice object, which is extremely expensive for what it provides, would have thought of including at least two Ethernet ports!
    The unexpected reply to my query could thus be ironically formulated by saying: "replace the Airport Extreme Base Station with a cheaper an more efficient device." Sorry for that!
    With my best regards to those who took the trouble to read this thread to the end.
    Yours, Hotaru

  • Can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 Wireless Printer with the AirPort Extreme Base. The printer is NOT connected at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme, and is placed in another room. It worked just fine with my previous router (Linksys WRT54G). Help me!

    Hey Guys!
    I just got my AirPort Extreme Base, but I can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 wireless printer with it.
    The printer is not connected to the AirPort Extreme's USB port. It is placed in another room, and I'd like to use it (the printer) wirelessly (not connected to the USB port os the AirPort Extreme), as I used to. There is no place for the printer close the AirPort Extreme. It worked just fine with my previous wireless router (Linksys WRT54G). I'm very disappointed with the AirPort Extreme Base Station because of that!...
    Can you help me? Please?!
    Thanks Folks!

    This must be a tough one, no suggestions at all.
