Windows XP PC not connecting to Airport Extreme

I am having trouble with my Windows PC recognizing my Airport Extreme. It was working great at one point because I could see the shared external HDD and my printer using Bonjour for Windows. Now it's like it doesn't exist. PC still connecting to the internet fine, but can't see the peripherals. I'm getting a 6753 error or something like that. Any suggestions?

I'm having the same issues and it's more frustrating because it used to work, then my PC crashed and now that I have it back it doesn't work. I'm getting the error. I got it back up and running twice but it's spotty, it keeps disconnecting and not working.

  • Windows xp will not connect to airport extreme

    I can connect if I make the network unsecure but when i make it secure my computer with a windows xp operating system can not connect. My ibook connects fine either way. It does show the network in range but when i try to connect and enter the password in the network key the computer says waiting for the network and then after3-4 minutes does not connect. Any help please?

    I am having the same problem. Apple Support took me through a bunch of steps over an hour and then sort of gave up and said this is a Microsoft problem. Great help! I may end up returning the AEBS, because this is just WAY too much work.
    When I set the AEBS (using MacBook Pro) at WEP level of security, by the way, the Network Connections available box on the XP Notebook still labels the network as a WPA/WPA2 network. The WEP option does not appear.

  • Imac will not connect to Airport Extreme when configured WPA/WPA2

    Imac will not connect to Airport Extreme when configured WPA/WPA2
    Posted: Jul 5, 2007 8:22 PM Reply
    I just got my Imac to connect to the internet using my Airport Extreme but only by using WEP. I had my Windows XP SP2 machines connecting using WPA/WPA2 with no problem. The Imac will not connect using anything other than WEP, and 1 of the XP machines will not connect using WEP.(I have not tried the other XP machines) I had to set the Airport Extreme for an open network in order to let both computers access the shared hard drive and access the internet.
    I don't know what the problem might be and would appreciate any suggestions.
    MacBookPro, Imac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   Fujitsu tablet PC, 2 XP desktops

    hehe...on the visuals. I figured it out already, and I have the old airport card. However, I did a chat with Apple support and while we were chatting I found a USB adapter with MAC drivers which will work. It is:
    Hawking Technology HWUG1A Wireless-G USB Adapter with Removable Antenna for Macintosh
    Manufacturer Part# HWUG1A
    That is the only adapter that actually does WPA/WPA2 that I can find that is for a Mac and not just an older USB that only does WEP. It surprises me that Apple does not have a USB product like this. Anyway, for $56 including shipping, I will have it by Monday or Tuesday. Pretty cool.
    Thank you so much for your assistance. It is appreciated.

  • I have my Time Machine on an external drive (not connected to Airport Extreme) and I have an external HD attached to airport extreme. Is it possible to have Time Machine backUp computer HD AND external HD connected to Airport Extreme. How?

    I have my Time Machine on an external drive (not connected to Airport Extreme) and I have an external HD attached to airport extreme. Is it possible to have Time Machine backUp computer HD AND external HD connected to Airport Extreme. How?

    Is it possible to have Time Machine backUp computer HD AND external HD connected to Airport Extreme.
    Sorry, but no.
    Time Machine will backup your Mac, but not the hard drive attached to the AirPort Extreme.
    Time Machine will back up a hard drive only if it is attached directly to your Mac via USB or FireWire.

  • Devices not connecting through Airport extreme wired connection

    Hi
    I just got an Airport extreme to use as an extention of my existing network, and to plug some devices in so that they can connect to the internet for updates (Sony Blu-ray player, dish network receiver, slingbox)...
    my wireless is from a linksys/cisco wireless router (4-port) wrt310n, that is connected to my cable modem. The airport is set and has the green light showing. The blu-ray player and dishnetwork receiver are plugged into two of the ports. The blu-ray player says it can't connect to the internet. The dish network receiver says it is connected, giving ip address/submask, etc.
    If I take my macbook pro and turn off wireless and plug into the airport it will not connect to the internet.
    What have I not done to allow wired connection to the airport extreme to connect to the net?
    thanks
    David

    Thanks for the clarification of your setup.
    Unfortunately, the bottom line here is that this is not going to work.
    The ethernet ports on the Extreme will only be active if you configure the AirPort Extreme to "extend a wireless network". But, it can only "extend" a wireless network from another Apple router. It's not compatible for this purpose with your Cisco router or any other manufacturer's router.
    If you are unable to connect the AirPort Extreme to your router using an ethernet cable, you might want to take a look at a pair of ethernet powerline adapters to accomplish the same task by using the wiring in your home to transmit the ethernet signal.
    I should clarify that if you connect the Cisco and AirPort Extreme using ethernet, you would not use the "extend" setting on the AirPort Extreme. This is only used if the device is connecting to another Apple router.

  • Dell 600m not connecting to Airport Extreme/Express WDS

    I have spent the last month or so, every other week on the phone with Dell for 2 hours at a time. We are creeping up on about 10 hours total on the phone with these genii and I still have a computer that will not consitently connect to my Airport Extreme WDS. I have gone through all of iFelix's pages on connecting a Windows system to an Airport and nothing works. Dell tells me it's my airport and that it doesn't work with Airport. I know different because it has worked then it stops. It usually works for about a week or so then on it's own something wigs out and it stops working. I use my PC for one purpose - Spot/FOREX trading - that's it! I need help in the worst way and no one has an answer. Every time I call Dell I get a different story. One person tells me to use the Intel PROset utility to manage my wifi connection on my PC then another person will tell me to use the Windows Zero configuration. It's a 600m laptop with the Intel PROset wireless 2200. It hasn't worked right since I bought it new from the Dell Kiosk. It works fine when hard wired to the network but wifi is sketchy at best. Please someone help me before I take a 4lb sledgehammer and pull a Gallagher on this machine. And please don't just post links to iFelix's site. I have been there and done that numerous times it's not working. It sees my network but it won't connect. Yet it will connect to my neighbors unsecure network. My Airport is Broadcast, WPA encryption. It shows up in available networks, you click connect, it asks you for the WPA key, you type it in and it scrolls for a few minutes then says it can't connect. I have connected to other networks. Dell is telling me I should get a different router and that there are compatibility issues with XP and Airport. Help please please please. I am about to pull my hair out.

    The WiFi card I have in my PC
    is an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG. I have the most
    current driver as far as I can tell 9.0.4.17 dated
    6/26/06.
    Try updating the driver

  • Retina MacBook Pro is not connecting with Airport Extreme 5 GHz signal

    I believe I have done my due diligence to find the answer to my question here and other places but I must be missing it. I have a Retina MacBook Pro that as far as I know should select the 5 GHz signal from my Airport Extreme (Generation 1 with 7.6.4 firmware) which is literally 3 ft. from my computer. When I click on the Airport icon in the menu bar, it is indicating a 2.4 GHz connection. I have looked at discussions which say I can give separate names to to both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals. I can't seem to find that. I also read where you can reorder the order of signal preference. I can't seem to find that either. Interestingly, I have an Airport Express that is extending the network. When option clicking on its icon in airport utility, I can see both the 2.4 and 5 GHz information. I don't se that in the Airport Extreme. I am thinking about gettng the newest Airport Extreme but if I don't need to...
    Thanks for any help!

    as far as I know should select the 5 GHz signal from my Airport Extreme (Generation 1 with 7.6.4 firmware) which is literally 3 ft. from my computer
    A Generation 1 AirPort Extreme is not a simultaneous dual band wireless router. It can produce either a 2.4 GHz....or....a 5 GHz wireless network signal, but not both simultaneously.
    If you want the Gen 1 Extreme to produce and deliver a 5 GHz wireless network, it can do so, but any 2.4 GHz devices that you have will not be able to connect to the 5 GHz signal.
    A new simultaneous dual band AirPort Extreme will produce both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simultaneously. Wireless devices will automatically connect to the best signal quality based on their capabilities and location in relation to the AirPort Extreme.

  • Iphone will not connect to airport extreme in N only mode?

    My iphone was unable to see my airport extreme for local wi-fi. I chnahged my setting from "N compatible only" to "N with g,b compatible and it suddenly showed up. Is this a limitation of the iphone that it will not see 802.11N (only) routers? I could not find any documentation or internet tips on this topic. Thanks!

    I have done that several times.
    After entering the network ID, selecting WPA and password, the iPhone displays the msg: Unable to connect to network, but my network name (with the padlock) will show up in the list of available connections (after clicking "OK" on the dialog box) although my network is set to not broadcast.
    FWIW: I can connect to other unprotected networks.

  • Iphone 3g will not connect to airport extreme

    I bought airport extreme today and hoping to use it with my iphone 3g. iphone reverts to 3g and will not stay "connected" to wifi. any ideas?

    But it is not set up as a DHCP server. It is in bridge mode.
    Ah, well, that could be it. Many (not all) ASDL providers only provide a single
    IP address.
    I was thinking yours offered more than one when you said:
    The airport works fine with the MacBook and I have a ext. hard drive and a printer working.
    I leaped to the conclusion that the hard drive and printer were connected via cat 5, (which would require that they get an IP as well), but now I see that was probably a wrong assumption.
    So with bridge mode, if your ISP only offers one IP, or they only allow "registered mac addresses" you can only get the laptop running. DHCP (and NAT network address translation) will get around the single IP problem.
    Registered Mac Addresses means they asked you the mac address of your laptop and that is the only one they will honor. If you don't remember that happening, chances are its not an issue, but if it is, most routers have a "clone Mac Address" option.

  • Iphone, IPad and printer not connecting to Airport Extreme

    Hello everyone,
    I have a problem with my wireless. I have an one year old airport extreme. I can connect to my IMac wirelessly and my macbook pro without any problem, however my iphone, printer and IPad have problem connecting to my wireless network. The only way my iphone and ipad can connect is if I'm next to the airport extreme. If I go to the next room it will disconnect, even thought the signal appear to be find. This is not the first time I have this problem. I corrected the problem by going to the setting and turn off and on the Robustness which I don't know why I no longer have that option on the airport extreme. I have reset, power cycle all device and no luck.

    The iPhone includes a b/g compatible wireless card, so "n" alone will not work, and the same when set to "n/a".
    I have my Airport Extreme Time Capsule set up via simultaneous dual band so my MBP with an "n" compatible wireless card can connect via "n" with my iPhone connected to the other band via "b/g".
    In regards to your MacBook slowing down, is this in regards to transferring data from one computer to another, or is this with your internet connection only?

  • HT2497 iPhone 5 will not connect to airport extreme

    Brand new iPhone 5 from Verizon, error message " "network cannot be set up by this software. Go to apple.com/support/airport

    Are you trying to set up the AirPort Extreme from scratch....or....is is already set up and you are trying to connect the iPhone to the wireless network that the AirPort Extreme is producing?
    What model of the AirPort Extreme do you have? 
    If you are not sure, look on the bottom of the device. The model number starts with an "A" followed by four numbers, as in Axxxx.

  • Macbook will not connect to airport extreme

    Hi
    I hope that someone can help' The problem that I have concerns a macbook and airport extreme.
    My mac book's hard drive had to be replaced and I am now in the process of setting up all the info again which was lost when my hard drive was replaced.
    I am attempting to connect the mac book to the internet via airport.
    I will try and list all the things that I have attempted.
    1) Click airport on, this seems o.k.
    2) Click join network this I do " Apple Network 2b4a1d" and it ask for a WPA password
    3) I enter the password given by the service provider
    4) It tries connecting to the network and the message back is Invalid password
    Next, I click on the airport utility and scan for the bases station.
    The message I get is:
    "Airport Utility was unable to find any Airport base station"
    Also in the Airport utility window the section in blue where the airport used to appear is blank.
    Does any one have any ideas before I go to the service provider?
    Look forward to any help that can be given.
    Thanks
    James

    Since your iMac is successful, then we probably should concentrate on why you MacBook is having trouble. From your original post it sounds like you didn't know the WPA password so if this is still the case you can determine the password by looking at your iMac's Keychain in order to retrieve it. You can then try this password to connect the MacBook to the AEBSn.
    o Run the Keychain Access utility found in \Applications\Utilities
    o In the category column (on the left side of the utilities' window), select "All Items."
    o In the right column look for your Network Name. It will have a "Kind" of "AirPort network password."
    o Double-click on your network name listing.
    o Click on "Show password."
    o Enter your Mac's administrator's password
    o Your wireless network's password should now be displayed.

  • HP Printer not connected via Airport Extreme 802.11ac

    I recently upgraded from an Airport Extreme 802.11n to an ac and my HP D110 Photosmart printer is no longer connected wirelessly. Is this an HP issue and can it be resolved? Both MacBook Pro and iMac run Yosemite 10.1.1 and have great Internet connectivity. The printer worked fine until the Airport upgrade.

    You changed devices that provide your wireless network.....but the HP printer still thinks that you are using your old router since it has not been given instructions on how to connect to your "new" network.
    I don't have an HP printer here to check, but in general the process would be to reset the printer back to its original default settings, just as it came out of the box when it was new.....so you can then set it up to connect to the "new" network.
    Your HP Setup Guide will likely tell you how to do this. If not, you can contact HP Support for your printer using the link just below:
    HP Photosmart e-All-in-One Printer - D110a | HP® Support
    With good luck, another user who might have the same printer may see this post and be able to offer more specific information.

  • Airport express extender not connecting to airport extreme

    Mac OSX 10.9.5
    Airport Extreme version 7.6.4
    Airport Express version 7.6.4
    I've done a hard reset of both Extreme and Express, set up Extreme and cannot set up Express as an extender.  Airport utility recognizes the Express, but shows an amber light.  Amber light also flashing on the airport Express, which is within 2 feet of the Extreme.
    "Other Wi-Fi Devices" says no remote airport  base satin is discovered.   Same situation even when connecting the Express to the Extreme via an ethernet

    Temporarily, please power off the AirPort Express and set it aside.
    Restart the AirPort Extreme and check to make sure that it is performing correctly.  There should be a green light on the AirPort Extreme and devices that are in the same room or adjacent rooms should be able to connect to the Internet.
    If you see a slow, flashing amber light on the AirPort Extreme.....
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Uility
    Click on the picture of the AirPort Extreme
    Look for the setting for Status
    Click on the small amber dot there and report back with the exact message that you see
