PPoE on Airport with OS X Tiger

Hi,
I have OS X 10.3.6 and I need to connect to ADSL modem (not router) using Airport and an Access Point (Dlink).
When I look into Airport properties I don't see the PPoE setting and so possibility to specify ADSL username and password like in PPoE Ethernet setting.
Does Tiger release permit this ?
If not how can I do to use ADSL with a wireless connection ?
Many Thanks in advance

How do you use Airport extreme at hotels etc, when traveling? I can plug my computer into the Airport with my ethernet but how does Airport pickup signal?

How do you use Airport extreme at hotels etc, when traveling? I can plug my computer into the Airport with my ethernet but how does Airport pickup signal? What equipment & devices do I need to travel with to make this possible?

You may mean the AirPort Express.....not AirPort Extreme.....as the Express is a popular travel router.
The whole idea behind using this device is that the hotel must provide an Ethernet jack in the hotel room. Then you connect the AirPort Express to the Ethernet jack with an Ethernet cable and configure it to provide your own wireless network in the room. You still have to agree to terms, pay the fees, etc.
The problem with this approach is that it is getting very difficult to find hotels in North America that prrovide an Ethernet jack....most have moved to wireless networks and the others are not far behind.
So, if the hotel is already providing a wireless signal, the AirPort Express is of no use in that situation.
If you normally stay at the same hotels, and know that they provide Ethernet ports, an AirPort Express might make sense in terms of convenience.

Will my new iMac come with Leopard or Tiger?

Hi,
I'm going to Uni on Monday and want to finally purchase my Mac now that Leopard has been released.
My question is: If I order my new Mac on Monday, will it come with Leopard or Tiger?
In the online store it still states that it will come with Tiger, but maybe this has just not been updated?
If people don't know the answer, would you happen to know an Apple contact email address or telephone number I can call (in the UK) to check prior to ordering?

Are you sure you want to get a Mac with Leopard preloaded?
It may actually not be compatible with some of the software you depend on, and will have no chance of being so (unless the product is updated) because Macs historically have only been able to use the operating system they ship with and newer operating systems, and we are still learning which products need updates for Leopard.
The online store has a phone number in the upper left hand corner:

How can I access a thumb drive plugged into an airport with my iPad?

how can I access a thumb drive plugged into an airport with my iPad? I am trying to set up an information point to serve weekly info over a NOT connected to the internet airport.

You can't. There are a couple of devices such as AirStash and the GoFlex drive that you can access over WiFi. They are limited, as I understand it, though.

I have an iMac G4 with AirPort with OS 10.4.11 installed. I keep getting an error message "There was an error joining the AirPort network "ATT5216." I called ATT U-verse - they were stumped. Any suggestions?

I checked for the IP address, and I'm not pulling one
up.
That's the problem. Even with no base stations available you should eventually within a few minutes get a self-assigned IP of 169.x.x.x!
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106659
Maybe you could manually configure an IP but that doesn't answer what's wrong. How about a simple test - create a new Location in Network System Preferences and see if that helps. If it doesn't then maybe a re-install of Airport or System software would help. If the Airport shows up as an available network port then the card is probably OK.

I had my iTunes set up to play music through my receiver & speakers upstairs. I have airport with RCA plug ins to my receiver auxiliary jacks. Homesharing is on & everything checks out but it no longer works. Any suggestions? I have no firewall & I have removed Smith clean program to fix this issue. I am running OS 10.8.2

I called AppleCare this morning and Sean helped me out in a huge way. In all of my attempts, I had not done a factory-default reset on the main base station and apparently some sort of endless loop had occurred between those two stations. Sean was very helpful and patient with me, but now the system is working as promised. Moral of this story is if a factory default rest doesn't help on the "problem" base station, try resetting all of the units.

Configure Airport with an existing wi-fi network.

I''m trying to configure my new Airport express. I already have a wi-fi at home and my router is not an apple one.
I would like to stream music from my living room through my stereo and stream the same music in my dinning room through ihome iw2.
I want to send my music from my ipod.
I was able to connect (wireless) my ipod to ihome iw2.
When I try to connect my AirPort, my ipod is connect to internet but didn't find the AirPort even they are side by side.
My ipod is the only apple machine I have for now.
I find a discussion between Bob Timmons and Gunnar Lind few days ago who have the same problems as me, except that Bob give him some tips to perform with mac, so I'm blocked...
I'm french speaking, but read well english... so pardon me for my english writing if it's not perfect!
Thanks a lot... hope to enjoy music in all my house!
Julie

Now, I cannot see the network related to my Air Port...
Is there any way to reset? I do it on the airport with the reset button, but on the ipod?
And I see when I was able to reach the airport network that the ip adress was not the same, I think they should be the same, is it right? So How do I do that on my ipod?
I' able to see that the airport works, because I can send music wirelessly from my ipod ti my ihome iw2...
I just miss little steps...
Thank you for your help!

I HAVE A MAC G5 WITH V10.4 TIGER OS, I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LETTER "N" ONLY WHEN I USE CAPS AND SHIFT KEYS DOSE IT TYPE THE LETTER "N"SE

HAVE A MAC G5 WITH V10.4 TIGER OS, I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LETTER "N" ONLY WHEN I USE CAPS AND SHIFT KEYS DOSE IT TYPE THE LETTER "N". I HAVE CONNECTED A NEW KEYBOARD BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

You might look at "Keyboard Shortcuts" in the Keyboard and Mouse preference pane and see if somehow the lower case n has been inadvertently assigned to something.
Probably the best solution would be to click the "Restore Defaults" button.

Which External HD with iMacG5 with OS X Tiger

Anybody out there have any suggestions on which external hard drive works best with OS X Tiger? I have seen some people have been having trouble with External HD and Tiger. I'm looking for 200 GB+ to support dv, and other media. Any ideas?

Make sure you get a FW enclosure with an Oxford chipset. Those have seemed to proven to be the most reliable under OS X. As a bonus, you can clone your internal HD to it and boot from it in an emergency if you need to. With a USB drive, that is not an option.
I have the Mercury Elite Pro from OWC and it works like a charm.

My xp cant connect to my macbook pro's Airport with password

hi, i have a problem to connect my xp to my macbook pro with a password
for example, if I set up my airport with 40 or 128 password, my xp will never connect to my mac
but, if i set up the the network without any password, my xp are able to connect to my mac and using the internet.
I just dont want anybody to use my network and is there any solution for me to connect my xp to my mac with a password. Thank you.

finally, I help myself. I found that _*O2 Connection Manager*_ can help me to connect my mac with password.
remember I am using WEP 128 Bit
Just remember to tick the boxes saying "Shared Mode Network Authentication" and "Active Key"
in your O2 Connection manager when you insert the password.

Any one use an Apple MA034 external modem with PowerbookG4 running Tiger?

any one use an Apple MA034 external modem with PowerbookG4 running Tiger?

Not too common with G4 PowerBooks as they have an internal modem. I can't find Apple's sepcs but a third-party ad shows it minimally needs 10.4.3 or higher and a G-series processor. That should work.
However, the Apple version is expensive used. I googled Apple MA034 external modem and found an Amazon page that showed other compatible modems that were much cheaper.

Airport Extreme 802.11 n Wi-Fi compatible with Mac OS Tiger?

I want to create a home network connecting a mini mac, PCs, Iphone and an external hard drive shared by computer units.
I have a stationary PC and one laptop, both running windows XP. I also have a mini Mac running Mac OS Tiger (I think 10.4.8) and another laptop running Vista. I also have an IPhone.
I have bought a Western Digital My Book Essential 1.5 TB and a Airport Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi base station.
The idea is to connect the external drive to the Airport Extreme in order to share the drive.
Question 1:
I ran into some problems. When trying to install the setup software for the Airport Extreme I get the message that Mac OS 10.5.x is required as minimum. Even if the sales person and the store home page states Mac Tiger as minimum requirements. I have not found any other way to set up the Airpot Extreme. Do I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard (which I will do eventually but I had counted on getting it to work before that)? Or is there another way to make it work?
Question 2:
I have very modern fiber broadband into our house. I therefor have a Router connected to the WAN and all units connected to the Ethernet connections. I do not want to use the Airport Extreme as the incoming Router since I want to place it somewhere else (connecting the Hard drive to it). How do I connect the Airport Extreme to the current pysical network? Should I connect a cable from one the Router ethernet connectsions to a) the WAN port of the Airport Extreme or b) to the Ethernet port? Put in another way, can i use the Airport Extreme as a switch in the existing network only using the Ethernet ports and not using the Airport Extreme WAN port? I am not familiar with all network terms such as switch, pure bridge mode, router bridget etc.
I am considering connecting the network as follows
Internet-> Broadband supplier delivered Router -> A, B, C (ethernet ports)
A->Mini Mac
B-> Play stattion 3
C-> Airport Extreme (to what port???)
Airport extreme-> PC , Printer (ethternet ports), external drive (USB port)
AGain, what ports should i use for the airport extreme?
Is this a good setup?

Hello dayknight. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
I ran into some problems. When trying to install the setup software for the Airport Extreme I get the message that Mac OS 10.5.x is required as minimum. Even if the sales person and the store home page states Mac Tiger as minimum requirements.
The very latest versions of the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule come with v5.5 of the AirPort Utility. This version will only run with OS X v5.7 or later as stated on the box. So either Leopard or Snow Leopard will be required to do so. The version that came with the previous model DID work with Tiger. Sorry!

You will want to connect an Ethernet cable from this other router to the WAN (circle-of-dots) port on your new 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn). In addition, you will want to reconfigure the AEBSn as a bridge. You would do this using the AirPort Utility. (ref: AirPort Utility > Manual Setup > Internet > Internet Connection > Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)). Of course, they would be difficult unless you upgrade to Leopard or Snow Leopard first. If; however, you have a PC with Windows XP or Vista, you could load the AirPort Utility on it to do the base station administration until such time you update your Mac.
Finally, your proposed network configuration looks workable.
