Super Hard Reset for a Apple Base Station m5757

Apple AirPort Base Station Model M5757?
E-bay item, something used to be on there. How is it I can do a TOTAL hard reset?
Any information would rock....

Maybe not time yet1
Yep, printing via AEBS woes were here too. Used to work fine from the one spot I REGULARLY PRINTED FROM-that formerly worked fine- it was so odd- printing que “took” the file to print but POOF- not stalled in the que nor printed. Did the usual reconfigure EVERYTHING.....
No joy - I checked all over this discussion thread and called Apple( have care plan..)
All I got was it is a grey area, since I have the AEBS set up via a Linksys router network. Of course they recommend I use only an Apple router....
In any case I solved the problem by doing a new AEBS set up, without the Linksys-, ONCE AGAIN FOR THE GAZILLIONTH TIME ADDING THE PRINTER, WHICH IT ALWAYS SAW- then checking all 3 computers on the wifi network- ahha! One did work!
I traced the change in function back to the fact my husband recently replaced the phones in our live-work loft, ( PHONES which we never use- i basically only an answering machine where we can see where the junk callS come from). The new phones ( handsets) apparently were interfering!
Hope that helps problem solve! I am surprised that even tho I was bumped up to a higher level of techsupport- this aspect was not touched upon. LOL- handsets are outside in car! Possibly by changing to a different channel, everything can coexist again!
Good luck EVERYONE!

  • Apple Base Station Versions (same for all types?)

    I have 3 base stations, 2 Airport Extremes, and 1 Airport Express. The two Extremes show "Apple Base Station V5.6" in the 'Select Base Station' window of the Airport Admin Utility. The Express shows "Apple Base Station V6.2". Shouldn't they all be the same? When I click 'Configure', it does not ask me to update them...

    No they shouldn't be the same, they are different.
    The AEBS' newest firmware is 5.6 and the AX's newest firmware is 6.2.

  • Can I connect a airport to another Apple base station

    I Have a Apple base station that I purchased a 3 years ago if that. I have a ranch home (1600 sq),  my base station is located in my basement. I cannot get signal to one side of my house. So, I went back to the apple store they told me i needed to buy a airport extrem. That I shoul connect the two and should never have the problem again. Well here I am, still not working and still can't get the two to work together. It's only been 1 1/2, every time I get the courage to try to connect the two, within 30min. I want to throw it out the window. Can someone pleaSe help me?

    Well... you could have purchased an AirPort Express for a lot less money to accomplish the same thing.
    As you can imagine a basement is just about the worst place in a home to put any wireless device, but you ought to be able to accomplish what you want. First, "hard reset" the new Extreme (see below) and configure it again. When asked what you want to do with it, choose "Add to an existing network". That should point you in the right direction.
    If you still have trouble, contact Apple using the Contact Us link below right. Telephone support is free for 90 days, and they will talk you through its setup.
    To "hard reset" an AirPort Base Station: make sure it's powered up, then gently press and hold its tiny reset button. Don't apply any more force than required to feel a tactile click. Keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.

  • Resetting Network of multiple base stations on Charter Cable Internet

    Resetting a cable connected airport network seems like a black art.  In this site I see constant recommendations for "perhaps" solutions, but no certain procedures.
    Does any Charter Cable subscriber have a proven suggestion for how to reset the Cable<>Airport network to the saved profile when it goes on the blink?  Particularly what the sweep time is for the modem and Apple
    Our network has one main 802.11n Extreme base station with two ethernet lines of two 802.11n Express remote base stations each. The latest firmware upgrade and Airport Utilities software is version  5.5.3.

    Yeah, it is not explained as clearly as it could be, but I hope I can clarify, I’m sure there are those who read this forum who are more knowledgeable, but here goes.
    The way I understand this document is:
    The settings in step 3,
    The first figure is for the base station that is connected to your cable modem.
    The second figure is for your remote base stations connected via the Ethernet cable from the main base station.
    Step 4 is for all base stations connected via the WAN connecter (all base stations connected via cable should be set up like in the figure in step 4.  All base stations connected via a cable are being use to “Create a Wireless Network” and if you leave the “Radio Mode:” and “Radio Channel Selection:” set to automatic they should choose WIFi channels that will be optimal for your network.
    If someone else know better or can explain better feel free to jump in, but I will continue to do what I can.
    I'm still working on my network as well.  It is a little more complex, and enough of it is working now, so I'm going to give it a rest for a day or two, then jump back into it.

  • ATT UVerse 2 wire gateway connection with Apple Base Station

    I ordered AT&T UVerse which uses a wireles gateway 2wire and I'm unable to connect my Apple Base Station supporting 802.11N. I was first told that AT&T supported this when I purchased this service and durning the installation they informed me that I was unable to use the base station.
    Has anyone figured out a way around this?

    You just need to connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the 2wire to the WAN (circle icon) port on your Apple base station and configure as follows:
    Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Internet icon in the row of icons at the top of the setup page
    Look for the setting at the bottom of the page for Connection Sharing and set this to "Off (Bridge Mode)".
    Click Update
    If AirPort Utility does not "see" the base station when you try to configure it using wireless, temporarily connect an ethernet cable from your computer to one of the LAN ports on the base station. Once you have it configured, you can remove the ethernet cable.
    Please post back on your progress.

  • Apple Base Station V5.7 router not allowing VPN to work?

    I am not able to connect via a VPN client through Apple Base Station V5.7. Directly connected the VPN client works. How do I need to configure Apple Base Station V5.7 to permit IPSEC?

    I'm curious why it's not OK to have the AEBS handing out IP addresses on the network it creates. 
    There are basic two methods of connecting another router behind the Actiontec.
    Actiontec LAN port to AEBS (for example) WAN port.   If your do this the AEBS must have a different subnet from the Actiontec (e.g. 192.168.2.x).  In this case, the AEBS will hand out DHCP addresses on its subnet.  THe disabvantage of this approach is that every thing behind the AEBS will be double natted.
    Actiontec LAN port to AEBS LAN port.  In this case, the WAN side of the AEBS is not used and DHCP server must be disabled on the AEBS because the LAN side of both routers are on the same subnet.  If DHCP is not disabled, a client will randomly get a DHCP address from one or the other.  If it gets its DHCP information from the AEBS, the AEBS will think it is the WAN gateway, when in fact it is not.

  • Do I have to buy an Apple base station when I have a normal Wi-Fi router?

    I am living in a house of PCs and am wanting to buy a new Macbook. However, I am worried that I will have to buy an Apple Wi-Fi base station. Do I have to, or will I be able to connect to the router that sends a Wi-Fi signal throughout my house? All our PCs and iPod touches/iPhones work with it.

    Just wondering...would I notice any difference (in speed/problem-wise) using my standard router as opposed to an Apple one?
    Your new MacBook is capable of connecting to 802.11a/b/g/n networks in either 2.4 or 5 GHz radio bands. If you current non-AirPort router is not capable of 802.11n, you may not get the full wireless performance potential out of you new laptop.
    Plus, could one connect an Apple base station in parallel to this other router I have (in case I purchase Time Capsule in future)?
    Actually, there are a number of ways to introduce a second router and will really depend on your networking requirements. For example, if you want to take advantage of Time Machine backups to a Time Capsule (TC), the TC can "join" an existing wireless network for that purpose.

  • How to control an Apple Base Station with 3rd-party wireless card?

    I recently upgraded my early 2004 Power Mac G5 2GHz DP to the 802.11n standard using a Newertechnology MAXPower 802.11n/g/b Wireless PCI Adapter to communicate with my new "n"-standard 2TB Time Capsule. My G5 shipped with an 802.11g-standard Airport Card which I disconnected when I installed the PCI card to avoid hardware conflicts. The new n-standard wireless set-up works without a problem, but having lost the Apple Airport Card, I no longer have the ability to control/manipulate the Timecapsule via the third-party card e.g. I cannot connect/disconnect my internet connection or otherwise troubleshoot the base station.
    So, the question is, how can control an Apple base station with a third-party wireless card? As it stands now, I must boot up my laptop just to see if I have a connection.
    My thanks in advance,
    T. North
    Brussels, Belgium

    Thanks for the assistance. Yes, I can indeed administer the Time Capsule from inside the Airport Utility, but I am still unable to connect or disconnect the Internet connection like you can with an Airport card (using the Airport drop-down menu.) If my ISP signal drops for whatever reason (which is does often) I have to boot up my laptop just to reconnect. Is there some feature within the Airport Utility that permits one to connect/disconnect the signal? If there is, I haven't found it yet.

  • Hard reset for macbook pro

    How do I do a hard reset for the MacBook pro?

    It cannot boot from the disk it tried booting from.
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

  • Can someone send me the hard reset for my non black printing HP 5510

    Like others my 5510 has stopped printing black. I see a hard reset has worked for some members . Also are the printer heads removable for cleaning on the Photosmart 5510  thanks 

    Hi @MikesHPname and welcome to the HP Forums!
    The hard reset for a Photosmart 5510 is the same as for any printer, simply unplug the power cord from the rear, wait at least 30 seconds (unplug the cord for the wall as well for best results) before plugging the printer back in.
    The printhead in the Photosmart 5510 is not removable.
    I'd like to see if I can lend a hand here though, have you tried the steps within this Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink document? If not, let me know what country you're in and whether the printer is in or out of warranty and I will certainly do my best to help you get this resolved
    Hope to hear from you soon!
