Problem connecting to Airport Extreme Base Station

I have two computers on my network. Both computers are losing the connection to the base station. When the computers lose the connection they cannot find the base station, even if you restart them. When this happens, the base station still has a green light. The amount of time it happens for vary. Sometimes it is once a day. Lately it has been every 30 minutes or so, which is getting pretty tedious. I used to think it was losing connection due to using a Bittorrent client, because it was always open when that happened, but I haven't used that for some time now. One computer is an iBook and one is a MacBook and both have Tiger on them. It is very frustrating.

  • How do I find a hard drive connected to Airport Extreme Base Station?

    *Apple Says:* "If your base station supports it, you can connect a USB hard disk to the USB port on your base station and computers on your network (both wired and wireless) can connect to it to access, share, and store files and data."
    Cool. So I followed the instructions. The drive is recognized by the base station and listed in the Airport Utility. It looks like it's ready to go...
    So... How do I access the drive? I don't see it on my desktop, it's not under network. I've tried "Connect to server..." and browsing, I can't see the drive, anywhere. Yeah, I've searched the crap out of this issue on google and this message board as well as apple support knowledge base. I'm sure this is a simple issue and I'm just missing the obvious. Help me out.

    Hello Timothy Uhl. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Try the following to mount the disk...
    o Click on the Desktop to enter Finder
    o Go > Connect to Server...
    o Enter 10.0.1.1 for the server
    o Enter Disk Password
    o Connect
    If this still doesn't solve the problem, let's double-check your disk sharing settings...
    AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) - File Sharing Setup
    Either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to one of the LAN ports of the AEBSn, and then, using the AirPort Utility in Manual Mode, check these settings:
    Disks - File Sharing
    o Secure Shared Disks: <With disk password | With base station password | With accounts >
    (Note: Choose "With a disk password," or "With base station password" if you want to secure the shared disk with a password, or choose "With accounts" if you want to secure the disk using accounts.

  • Can't get PC laptop to connect to Airport Extreme base station. Help!

    I've spent a lot of quality time on the phone with support staff at Apple, Earthlink, and Netgear. Now I turn to you fine folks.
    I have an Airport Extreme base station. My G4 is connected to the base station via ethernet, and that works fine. My problem is with the wireless networking with our Dell laptop running Windows XP SP2. Wireless card is a Netgear WG511 with updated firmware. I've configured the network on the PC end using the Netgear Smart Wizard, rather than Windows (I don't know if that makes any difference).
    Smart Wizard says the PC is connected to the network, and says that signal strength is excellent. However, there is no connection. I've tried pinging, but get no reply.
    The status bar in the Smart Wizard window switches every 2 seconds from "Connected" with excellent signal to "Searching" with virtually no signal. The log shows that it's constantly connecting to and disconnecting from the network.
    I've gone over IP and MAC addresses and whatever other settings I could check with all of the respective phone support people. I'm using WPA/WPA2 Personal security, and have double-checked the 13-digit password on both ends. I'm connecting using PPPoE, per Earthlink's settings.
    This is maddening! Any suggestions? I'd really appreciate it.

  • Third party Device connection to Airport Extreme Base Station

    I have a new Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS) that my iMac is wirelessly connected too. I cannot connect my HP wireless printer to the AEBS. The printer recognizes the SSID and WEP password, but does not have a connection & does not print.
    I also, cannot connect a Netgear Wireless Bridge for (xBox) to the AEBS. The xBox does not see the SSID at all. What do I do??? I purchased the AEBS because the salesman said it would be the easiest wireless network ever, but I only have problems ! ! ! ! ! ! !

    Very likely a WEP issue.
    If you turn off WEP can you now connect and print?
    One of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier for people, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
    The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a Netgear client and vice versa.
    One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is required).
    Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key must be used regardless.

  • Can Time Machine backup USB Drive connected to Airport Extreme Base Station

    I need a new N based wireless router. I would prefer to get just the $179 Base Station and not the $299 Time Capsule. I already have a nice external USB 500GB drive that I would connect to the AEBS. So, once I have this new wireless router/base station installed at home and I have the external USB drive connected to it, can my new Macbook Air with a USB connected 400GB drive be used to backup what is on the Macbook Air and also backup the 500GB USB drive info that is connected to the extreme base station?
    Thanks

  • Airport Utility cant connect to Airport Extreme Base Station, Error code -4

    I am unable to use my Apple-product. Earlier it worked, with these settings: The Airport Extreme Base Station worked as a Gigabit switch and an Access Point. It was not supposed to work as a router, since I have a server "on the far side" of the AEBS.
    In any case, it worked for a while. Then it started to act strangely, so I tried to check its settings. I was unable, so I did a factory reset. And haven´t been able to connect (for configuring) since. (It still works as a router and access point, but with the default settings, and with a blinking yellow led.)
    When I use the Airport Utility (5.5.1) connected with a cable it finds nothing. Should I be able to configure it wired? When I connect wireless to the default "Apple Network XXXXXX" it finds the Airport Extreme "with default settings". I click "continue" or "Manual setting", and it says "Detecting wireless Apple Devices" (bear in mind that I translate the messages from swedish, It might get wrong), and then after a minute:
    An error occurred while trying to access the base station. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again. Error Code: -4
    I have shut off the firewall in both Windows and Panda Cloud Office Protection. I have tried to make lots of factory resets.

  • Problem w/ my Airport Extreme Base Station & Canon i250 Printer

    Hi All...
    Well, I'm at my wits end...before I call AppleCare, I thought I'd post on here to see if any of you had similar issues or problems with what I'm having, and maybe a resolution(?)...
    First of all, I've been using this same setup for the past 1 1/2yrs, and never had a problem with it until lately.
    I cannot print reliabily over wireless to the Canon, only through the Ethernet/LAN jack.
    Here is my setup...
    - Airport Extreme Base Station (w/ telephone jack) and Firmware 5.7
    - Powerbook G4 12" w/ Mac OS X 10.4.5
    - PC Notebook (HP Pavilion ZV6000) w/ Windows XP and Broadcom 802.11b/g/128 Pre-N
    - Canon i250 Inkjet Printer (was originally a free printer..worked very well over the years)
    Originally, everything was working very reliably and I never had problems... I'm "guessing" something has changed (firmware?) that has caused any print jobs sent from either the PC or Mac to pause half way through a page and hang the printer. The computer (usually the Mac) will say it is having difficulty "reaching the Canon i250".
    I've one a Hard Reset on the AEBS and that has not fixed it. I've not tried Interference Robustness yet but am not sure it will work. I do not have any problems using Wireless otherwise--only with printing, and nothing has change in the setup since I first got the AEBS (except maybe firmware).
    Does anyone have any suggestions or insight as to what exactly could be the problem?
    Is this a bug in Firmware that I'm not able to find?
    Thanks so much for your response(s).

    Delete your printer using Printer Setup Utility and
    add it back. Does the performance improve?
    No it didn't... I deleted, re-installed twice and still nothing new...
    However, if I'm printing directly from my tower (WinXP Tower) over LAN, it works fine...but does not work at all through wireless.
    For a year or so, I've never had a problem and nothing has changed in this setup. I think the culprit might be the last AEBS firmware update.
    I've troubleshot everything I can think of and still having issues printing...

  • Recommended Ethernet NAS HDD to Connect to Airport Extreme Base Station?

    My Airport Extreme is about a year old, maybe 14 months old. My DSL modem functions as a bridge to my Airport Extreme. My iMac is plugged via ethernet into the Airport Extreme. In the garage, my MacBook is plugged via ethernet into an Airport Express, which wirelessly extends my network. I have Boot Camp on the MacBook, and the MacBook works well whether I boot Mac OS or Vista. I also have a USB splitter (router? i.e. 5 USB ports) plugged via USB into the Airport Extreme. I have an older, somewhat small USB external HHD plugged via USB into the USB router (or whatever the splitter is called) attached to the Airport Extreme. EVERYTHING IS WORKING. I REPEAT, EVERYTHING IS WORKING.
    The USB HDD connected to the Airport is running out of space. I suppose I could just buy a newer, bigger USB HDD and copy the contents of the old USB drive to the new one, leaving the new one connected via USB to the Airport Extreme. However, I am not impressed with the speed of wireless copying from the MacBook in the garage over the wireless network to the USB drive connected to the Airport Extreme in the house. Plus, I have one empty ethernet port on the back of the Airport Extreme. Therefore, I am thinking of connecting an ethernet HDD via ethernet cable to the Airport Extreme. I have no desire to use that ethernet HDD for Time Machine, so the incompatibility there is not a problem. I just want to have a large, fast, ethernet storage drive plugged into the Airport Extreme for general network use. Can anyone recommend a good, fast, reliable ethernet HDD that is "plug and play" when connected via ethernet to Airport Express, i.e. something that will just show up and be visible and work without hassles?
    In the simplest terms, I want to replace the USB HDD connected to the Airport Extreme with an ethernet HDD connected to the Airport Extreme and have the ethernet HDD be equally accessible as the USB HDD currently is. I need recommendations for an ethernet HDD that will make it easy.
    I have the latest Snow Leopard on both the iMac and the MacBook. (I understand that Vista under Boot Camp on the MacBook will require me to map a network drive, but I figured that out for the USB HDD and would not expect any special problems doing the same thing for an ethernet HDD connected to the Airport Extreme.)

    There are any number of things that can cause this, and normally the only fix is to do a complete system reset.
    Sometimes you can reset the Modem and it will fix it other times reset the Extreme will fix it, I find the fool proof way is to shut your computer off. Pull the power adapter from your ISP's Modem and from your Airport extreme.
    Wait a minimum of 5 minutes and then in order.
    Re connect the power adapter to the ISP's Modem and you must wait for it to re-acquire the signal and the lights (Normally 3 depending on the modem they furnished). This normally take a minute.
    Next you plug in the power adapter to the Airport Extreme Base and again you must wait about a minute to acquire the signal.
    Now you can restart your computers. You should be good.
    Don
    Remember this has to be done in the sequence mentioned above.

  • Problem with my Airport Extreme Base Station (old model)

    I have two computers connecting to the internet with an old AEBS via ethernet. One is a Powerbook G4 and the other is a MacBook Pro. Since performing a software update this morning, the older machine stopped being able to connect to the base station wirelessly (the MacBook is fine though). The error message I receive is "There was an error joining Airport network". I am able to connect to other unsecured networks in the area so I don't think there is a problem with my Airport card.
    I connected my Powerbook directly to the base station with an ethernet cable. While doing so I was able to access the internet and Airport Setup Utility but once unplugged I was still not able to connect wirelessly.
    I have tried restarting the base station both via the utility and by unplugging it. I have also restarted my Powerbook multiple times.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry, should have asked exactly how old your PowerBook is. Apparently the faster AirPort Extreme card didn't hit the market until early 2003. Find your PowerBook "Specifications" by clicking on that link above in the Apple website menu bar. Picking at random from the list, the 1GHz model released Nov 2002 didn't have an AirPort Extreme card, but only the AirPort card, which means the slower speed 802.11b wireless. The two PB models released in Jan 2003 both were AirPort Extreme models.
    You'll be able to use the PB, just open AirPort Admin Utility and change your network "Mode:" selector (at the bottom of the panel) to "802.11b/g Compatible" from 802.11g Only.

  • Windows XP lost connection to airport extreme base station

    I had a perfect connection after setting up my Airport Extreme with my Mac Book Pro and my HP laptop and one HP desktop then when trying repair media center. I did install the airport utility in XP but when trying to scan it cannot pick up my base station. It worked perfect before now I am at a hold and I don't know what direction to take.
    Some questions.
    How do I find the IP address on my Airport?
    Do I need to create a new wireless network since the airport utility does not pick up the base station?
    When I search available networks on the PC why doesn't mine show up?
    Can someone point out the steps to take to get this crappy PC back on the internet, oh by the way it's my wife's and now she's on mine and I need to get her back on hers ASAP!
    Thanks I appreciate your time to help out!

    >How do I find the IP address on my Airport?
    The default LAN-side IP address of the AirPort/Time Capsule is: 10.0.1.1.
    >Do I need to create a new wireless network since the airport utility does not pick up the base station?
    You shouldn't have to. Assuming that the base station is still providing a wireless network, you should be able to access it with the AirPort Utility. To do so, run the utility, and then, select File > Configure Other ... from the utility's menu bar. Enter 10.0.1.1 in the Address window and the Base Station Password in the Password window. If you did not change the Base Station Passwork, the default is "public."
    If you are still unable to access the base station via the utility, then try temporarily connecting an Ethernet cable between the computer and the base station ... and then, try accessing it again.

  • Airport Extreme Base Station and Apple Mail

    I have recently connected my Airport Extreme Base Station behind my uverse 2 wire router and configured it to handle all the routing in my home. This setup was easy and the router and wifi seems to be working flawlessly. However, I am having problems with Mail. I am using .mac and .me accounts on Mail in Snow Leopard and since I started using the Airport router my accounts won't receive. I can send using the .me smtp server no problem, but I cannot receive using the .me/.mac imap server. I have tried opening the imap mail ports in the airport utility but have had no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have the same problem whether I am using wifi or Ethernet. Is this a porting type problem or a DNS type problem?

    I have recently connected my Airport Extreme Base Station behind my uverse 2 wire router and configured it to handle all the routing in my home.
    Normally, when you have a router "behind" another router, the second device...your AirPort Extreme....would be configured in "bridge mode". The AirPort Extreme would not be handling the routing functions in this type of setup, the Uverse router would continue to provide that service. Here I assume that you have not reconfigured or changed the Uverse router.
    Check your settings for the AirPort Extreme as follows:
    AirPort Utility - Manual Setup
    Click the Internet icon
    Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
    Update to save any changes
    Then perform a complete power cycle on the entire network. Power everything down, order is not important.
    Start the Uverse router first and let it run a few moments
    Then start the AirPort Extreme the same way
    Then start each device the same way until everything is powered back up

  • Airport Extrem Base Station Connection problems

    Just purchased the airport extreme base station to replace my old router, but when I plug it all in the airport utility can't find it!

    A new Extreme creates an open wireless network that you must select. It appears in your Wi-Fi menu like this (except the words will read AirPort Extreme...):
    Select it. AirPort Utility will load and walk you through its configuration.

  • Problem consistently printing via new (summer 2011) AIRPORT EXTREME BASE STATION and Brother wireless printer (model HL5370DW). What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks in advance for any help you folks can offer. I'm a newb here and will try to offer as much detail as I can about the dilemma at hand.
    Scenario: Home network has been recently set up for wireless internet access via NEW Airport Extreme Base Station (purchased September 2011). Units accessing the network include: 2011 Macbook Pro, 2011 Macbook Air, 2007 Macbook, 2009 Macbook Pro, 2 iPhone 3GSs, and a 1st-gen iPad (and a partridge in a pear tree AEBS is configured to run WPA2 encrypted network, as well as a WPA2 guest network. I am attempting to yoke a BROTHER HL5370DW wireless B or G/ ethernet / usb-capable printer to the main network such that any and all units can print wirelessly or its equivalent (i.e., via printer hooked to AEBS through USB hub)
    Problem: Despite configuring the Brother printer to recognize the main WPA2 network I created, I am unable to get wireless printing to work. My workaround was to physically connect Brother printer to AEBS via USB, specifically using a Belkin USB hub (after all, I wanted access to usb drives, as well as the printer). This workaround works ONLY SOME OF THE TIME. Generally, after a fresh boot of any computer or after a restart of the AEBS, any given computer will be able to print (i.e., any computer wirelessly connected to the main WPA2 network recognizes the printer). HOWEVER, at random times, printer access is gone (as is access to USB drives connected to AEBS's usb hub). Wireless networks are still up and running when that happens. IS THERE A WAY TO GET THE USB HUB's devices (i.e., printer and usb drives) to ALWAYS REMAIN AVAILABLE AS LONG AS THEY STAY CONNECTED TO THE AEBS? In other words, what accounts for the intermittent loss of the usb peripherals?
    Sometimes, I just shut the airport off on whatever computer is having this problem, and the problem goes away. Sometimes, the problem is present across all computers in the house, sometimes only a few are affected. I can ALWAYS see the AEBS in the Airport Utility if the AEBS is connected to the particular computer via ETHERNET CABLE.
    My theories:
    - true wireless printing (i.e., without usb hub workaround) doesn't work because the N network somehow isn't backwards compatible with the Brother printer, which, i believe, is B/G. Although...isn't Wireless N networking supposed to work with BG devices? I did find a thread (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2570774?start=0&tstart=0 ) that explains some of the particulars of WPA2 encryption and Wireless B/G issues, but it was beyond my level of comprehension (I'm a psychologist, but not an Apple Genius
    - The usb workaround is only intermittently viable because of some flaw in the Airport or Airport Utility that causes dropouts to happen when a Macbook Pro or Air's lid gets closed or one gets opened after having been at a different network (e.g., at my office).
    QUESTIONS:
    - Should I try to use my old router (7 year old Linksys WRT54G) as an access point and connect the Brother printer to that G-router? How do I do that?
    - I wouldn't mind just relying on the usb hub method if I could just insure more consistency (i.e., no random dropouts of peripherals). How could I do this?
    Rule out:
    - wireless printing works on my printer - it was being recognized back before the AEBS. I had the Linksys router running a WEP network and had the wireless printer talking with no cables to the router and the computers. (I just don't want to revert to using WEP encryption given its lack of security and my trying to protect HiPAA related health information on behalf of patients)
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    13 ASCII characters = 104 (aka 128)-bit WEP
    encryption
    If turning off WEP works, then you just need to
    provide the cameras with the "Equivalent Network Password".
    One of the problems with WEP is that the actual
    standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit
    WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier, vendors use certain
    algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords
    (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use
    of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than
    lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different
    vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX
    key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be
    hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice
    versa.
    You may find the following article helpful:
    - Apple article, especially the part about
    "Third-party client to Airport".
    Brilliant idea about trying the system with No encryption on... that DID solve the problem... almost.. once I turned off the encryption option, and restarted the Airport, I got a dialog box showing that the "Base station needs attention" but it didn't indicate WHAT kind of "assistance" it needed. Nonetheless, I closed out of the Airport program only to find that the indicator light, which had been Green, was now, flashing Yellow and I could not connect anything, including my computer. I opened the Airport program again and found the ONLY way I could get the Green light on was to select some sort of encryption option... then the light would go Green again but my cameras would not hook up again, and when I went back in and ONLY changed the option to NO encryption, I got the yellow flashing light and the "this base unit needs attention" warning...
    I think your suggestions are almost on the mark... is there any way of reconciling the WEP coding between the cameras and the Airport??? Or turning off the encryption option and STILL have Airport work?
    Thanks again for your help and suggestions... I really appreciate it.

  • Mac Book pro can't connect to Internet through Apple airport extreme base station

    I had problems connecting to the internet in the past with my macbook pro.  One day it suddenly started working again but then I bought a second apple TV I lost connectivity.  I have tried changing the IP address manually and while it shows me connected to the wifi I am still with out internet.  When I hooked up the new Apple TV that I bought it booted my computer from it's ip address.  The apple TV though wouldn't work and now nor would my computer.  I ended up setting the Apple TV's ip address manually and now it works fine. My computer on the other hand does not no matter if I set it manually or not.  Even if I plug in the ethernet cable from the base station it doesn't work.  It show that it has a self assigned IP address.  After I set it manually it shows that I am connected both via wifi and the ethernet cable but I can't connect to the internet.  If I plug the modem directly into the computer bypassing the base station I get internet and it is using the IP address that worked originally.
    It has something to do with the connection from the base station to my computer but this is odd considering every other device I have: iPhone 4, apple tv, apple tv, apple mini with retina display all work perfectly via wifi (newest apple tv had to be set manually as I stated above but now works fine).  When I check the ip of the base station itself it seems to be different from the ip of the computer when the computer was connected directly to the router.  I don't understand why my computer now can't connect to the internet via the base station whether it be wifi or by ethernet.  Can you please help me trouble shoot this?
    I have an AirPort Extreme base station which allows up to 50 users and a 30 meg connection speed.
    I have a MacBook Pro (17-inch Early 2009), OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

    It has something to do with the connection from the base station to my computer
    I don't think so..
    I just posted a reply which totally vanished.. strange strange website now.
    Please post some screenshots of your AE setup from the airport utility.. I want to see the summary page, then the network and internet tab.
    Please tell us what modem you use.. is it a router??
    If you have satellite or 3G wimax etc service they often are limited to 5 IP addresses... the AE takes one and then 4 more devices can join .. no more.
    You need to also give us the screenshot of the IP you are getting in a computer that works.
    EDIT
    Sorry this is half double post.. the previous page refused to display.. now it has returned..

  • Airport Extreme Base Station with HP Printer problems
