Xbox 360 can't connect to old airport when WEP key is on. HELP !

Hi,
did you try to use 13 letter password?

Can not connect to old airport express

I can not connect to old airport express with new mountian lion and airport utility?

You will need to install AirPort Utility 5.6 on Mountain Lion. This article will tell you how:

Updated to 7.3.1, PC and Xbox 360 can't connect

Hey, anyone else having problems getting PCs and Xbox 360s to connect to the AirPort Extreme after the 7.3.1 update? Wired or wireless, my PC (Vista, with and without SP1) and my Xbox 360 (with the official wireless network adapter) won't connect.

I am in the same boat...
7.2 worked great... 7.3.1 does not even show in the network list. Also, downgrading it does not fix the issue?!?!?

Can't connect to the airport when i'm in airport utility

I go into airport utility I double click on my airport to open it and then it prompts me for my password, and after entering the correct password, the prompt for my password comes up again and I enter my password again and it pops up again and it endlessly does this.... Everything else on it works fine, I can connect to the airport and access the wifi, but I can't access it in airport utility. I did tried to reset my airport by pressing in the little button in the back, but it didn't fix it. Any suggestions? Thank you so much in advance!

You do know that the AirPort Extreme has two passwords, correct?
One is a device password to access the settings and the other is the wireless network password.
Might you be trying to use the wireless network password to access the settings on the AirPort?

My nintendo DS can't connect to wifi with a WEP key.

I entered the SSID and Equivalent Network Password into my Nintendo DS and tried connecting. All it gave me was "Unable to connect to an access point". I only have this problem when my WEP key is on. It works without security, but I don't want to get rid of it.
Anyone else have this problem?

I have the newer Airport Extreme and have the same problem connecting with the DS. I have WEP security enabled. Does your wireless router (Airport Extreme) need to be set up for "b" only in order to connect with the DS? If that's even possible?
Connecting is not a problem for the Wii, PS 3 or PSP? The DS is the only one that doesn't connect wirelessly.

How to connect to wi-fi when WEP key is not compat...

i am using the nokia 93001 communicator and i have wi fi access point in my office but iam not able to connect to the access point because the phone supports 40 or 104 bit key lenth and my office router has 64 bit key so kindly suggest how to rectify this problem

Encrypted wireless networks use either 40-bit or 128-bit keys. The key is conveyed in either eight-bit (ASCII) or four-bit (hexadecimal) encoding.
When using hexadecimal, each character in the final encryption key is four bits long when converted to binary.
The 26 characters of a 128-bit key add up to 104 bits. This 104-bit password is combined with a 24-bit random number, called the initialization vector, to create the 128-bit encryption key. The initialization vector is supplied with each packet of information sent and is part of the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm and 802.11b standard.
With 40-bit encryption, the 10 hexadecimal characters equal 40 bits, which are then combined with the initialization vector to create the 64-bit encryption key. In this case the 40-bit name is a misnomer; it is actually a 64-bit encryption key.

XBox 360 can't get IP / Directv gets IP, but showing "local only"

I have two Linksys WRT54GL's using DD-WRT firmware. One is serving as a router and broadcasting, while the other is serving as a wired bridge. The wired bridge is working, a laptop wired up to it connects to the internet fine. However, my Xbox 360 can't get an ip address, and DirecTV gets an IP address, but connects only to the local network, not the internet. Any suggestions? It doesn't seem to be the specific port, as I've used the laptop on all 4.

Problem Solved!
First, I re-configured my AEBS to allow DHCP sharing of a public IP address.
Second, I re-set the new XBox 360 to its factory default settings.
Third, I used the search function on the XBox 360 to locate my home network and AEBS.
Fourth, I re-booted my modem (I'm a Comcast broadband user) and then re-booted my AEBS.
Fifth, I restarted my XBox 360 service.
Voila! My XBox 360 connected via my home network AEBS to the internet and now my 21-year old is out of my hair as he plays Halo!

Can I use an old Airport Express to extend the range of a new Airport Express?

Hi all. I have an old Airport Express 802.11g (First Gen?) that is starting to fade. Still works, but not what it used to be. So I am going to buy a new Airport Express. I'm not interested in the Airport Extreme.
Question: If I use the new Airport Express as my main wireless router, can I plug my old Airport Express into another room as an extender? In other words, with the old Express and the new Express talk to each other or will a new Express only allow extension with another new Express?
Thanks!

Sorry, but the old AirPort Express 802.11 b/g does not have a setting to "Extend a wireless network", so it cannot be used as a extender with the newer AirPort Express if you plan to connect wirelessly.
If you plan to connect the older Express using a permanent wired Ethernet cable connection, then it could be configured to provide additional wireless signal coverage in that manner.

Can I use an old Airport Extreme as an extender with a new Airport Express

Hi All, I have Verizon Fios and the data line runs into my bedroom. I purchased a new Airport Express today to replace the Airport Extreme (from 2006). Can I use the old Airport Extreme as an extender (I'd like to set it up in the basement as I get poor connectivity there). I tried using the Airport Utility - Other WiFi Devices to find the Airport Extreme, but it's not registering. Is what I'm attempting possible? If so, how do I set it up?

Can I use the old Airport Extreme as an extender
Is this the "round" or "dome" shaped AirPort Extreme?
If yes, then it is not possible to have the AirPort Extreme wirelessly "extend" the signal from the AirPort Express.
However, the older AirPort Extreme can probably be set up to provide more wireless signal coverage if it will connect back to the LAN <--> port on the AirPort Express using a permanent, wired Ethernet cable connection.
In this case, the setup of the older AirPort Extreme will require that you have an older version of AirPort Utility installed on your computer. If it is a Mac, then the Mac must be running Leopard (10.5.x), Snow Leopard (10.6.x), or a PC with AirPort Utility could be used to set up and configure the older Extreme.
f you have the "square" or "flat" version of the AirPort Extreme, then everything becomes much easier. Post back if you do.

Xbox 360 can't even detect router in the house at all now???

My Xbox 360 was working just fine then my internet went out got that fixed now my Xbox 360 can't even detect a router in the house anymore. It can't detect a network,it doesn't even give me a wireless option to connect to on my 360,I ran the Linksys Easylink Advisor,it shows my 360 on there but it isn't lit up like it use to be. I called Linksys they can't even get it back online......I don't know what else to do to make it detect my 360,when they fixed my internet they bridged my router,don't know if that has anything to do with it or not.
My Linksys Wireless Router Model # is WRT54GS

How can I connect an old macbook pro...

How can I connect an old macbook pro with that does NOT have a Thunderbolt connection to a new 27 inch iMac? I only need to do this for one specific purpose, to be able to see the work I'm doing on the laptop in InDesign on the iMac's larger screen (at a larger size as it were, so I can see a double page spread (or even a whole page would be an improvement) in one go)? I gather it might be possible to get an adaptor but note that Apple don't seem to sell one. I know I could do this with the cinema screen but would rather do it with a new imac as that will have more use to me overall. It's a work laptop which I don't own so I don't own the Indesign to just be able to use that on an iMac. I have tried to connect monitors to the laptop in the past, but with no success at all. I hope someone can help . Thank you.

Im pretty sure you are talking about the M8536 which has an ADC Adapter.
you will have to daisy chain a thunderbolt to DVI adapter with an DVI to ADC Adapter.
the first adapter:

The second adapter is old so you may find used ones on ebay like this:

Hi mshields1162,
Great question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
First, you may want to choose to have the sidebar displayed for familiarity:
iTunes 11: Frequently used features
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
Afterwards, your device should be displayed if connected:
We'll want to click on it, and choose the Music tab at the top. Let's make sure "Sync Music" is checked:
Afterwards, you'll have the option to sync either the entire music library (for your first iPod), or "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres" (for the secondary device). Upon selecting this option, four larger option boxes will appear allowing you to pick and choose what content will be synced. For audiobooks, you may need to do the above in the "Books" section. For a visual instruction on how to do this, see the following:

Can't connect ipad to airport extreme

Can't connect ipad to airport extreme after internet provider reset modem. Works fine only with MacBook Pro.

Have you tried resetting your network settings?
Try "forgetting" that network. Tap Settings > Wi-Fi, tap the chevron next to your wireless network name and then "forget this network".
Tap it again to choose it.
If that does not work... then try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
You will need to enter your networks passwords again, after which they will be remembered.
To see available networks go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Available networks are shown under Choose a Network...

How can I use my old AirPort Express?

How can I use my old AirPort Express (the one that plugs right into the wall without a power cable) to stream music to a stereo when I am using the new Airport Express? The AirPort Utility 6.1 will not recognize the old AirPort Express.

Apple does not make it easy for you to use an older device when they want you to buy newer devices.
See this link for tips on how to install a version of AirPort Utility on Mountain Lion that will allow you to configure your older Express:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1167965/mountain_lion_and_the_ancient_airport_ba se_station.html
This is not supported by Apple, so it is your decision on whether you want to move forward with this. It works fine for me, but I cannot guarantee that it will work for you, nor offer support if you have difficulty.
