Apple Airport Extreme 802.11n

After unpacking your Airport Extreme, connect the ethernet cable from your jack to the leftmost ethernet port on the back of the Airport. This is the WAN port marked with the small circular image. Next plug the AC adapter into the power port on the Airport and plug it into the wall.
Once the Airport Extreme has been plugged into the network and powered on, the status light on the front will go through a series of colored flashes. When the status light glows solid green, your Airport has been initialized and is connected to the network. This may take a few minutes. If your status light fails to glow solid green, please consult your manual for status light explanations.
Make sure the wireless card on your computer is enabled and turned on. Connect to your Airport Extreme, which will most likely appear as Apple Network followed by some letters.
Next install the Airport software from the included CD. After installation, launch the Airport Utility application. This is located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, and in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows.
Please keep in mind that the Airport Utility is released with a new version every few months, so the screen shots you see below may not look exactly like what you see on your computer.
Select your base station, and then click Continue.
Enter a Wireless Network Name and a Base Station Name and click Continue. Write these names down for future reference.
Enter your Country and Radio Mode on the next screen. Using 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible) is the proper choice in most cases. Click Continue.
Select WPA2 Personal security on the next screen, then enter a Wireless Network Password and Verify it. This password must be between 8 and 63 characters. You should write this password down and keep it near your Airport Extreme in case you forget it. Click Continue.
Select 'I connect to my local area network (LAN)' on the next screen and click Continue.
Leave the default settings (Using DHCP) on the next screen and click Continue.
If you are interested in connecting USB peripherals to your Airport, consult your manual for additional information. Otherwise leave the default settings and click Continue.
Enter a Base Station Password and Verify it. Write this password down and keep it near your Airport Extreme. You will need it if you ever want to modify any settings for your base station. Click Continue.

Plex Mac How To Set Up Manual Port Airport Extreme

Here’s how to set up an AirPort Extreme Base Station:

Unbox the AirPort Extreme and plug it in. There’s no on/off switch - it turns on when you plug it in.
If you want to connect the AirPort Extreme to the Internet, purchase a Cat5 ethernet cable and use it to connect the AirPort Extreme to your DSL or cable modem. Plug the cable in to the AirPort Extreme’s Internet WAN port (it has a little O symbol above it).
On your Mac, the AirPort Utility application automatically appears once the AirPort Extreme is detected, as shown below. (If the AirPort Utility application does not appear, open it manually. You can find it in Applications → Utilities.)
If the AirPort Express firmware needs to be updated, click Update Firmware. Wait for the download to install. The AirPort Utility window will appear once the update has been installed.
Click Continue. The window shown below appears.
Enter a name for the AirPort Extreme in the AirPort Extreme Name field. This is a name for the device that could help you differentiate this AirPort from other AirPort Base Stations on your network, if you have any.
Enter a password for the AirPort Extreme in the AirPort Extreme Password and Verify Password fields. You will need to enter this password to change the settings on the AirPort Extreme.

Tip: You can optionally use the Password Assistant to generate a strong password for the AirPort Express. Click the key button to generate the password.

Optional: Select the Remember this password in my keychain checkbox to save the password for the AirPort Extreme in the encrypted Keychain Access database.
Optional: Select the Use a different password to secure disks and enter a different password if you plan on connecting a USB hard drive to the AirPort Extreme. This allows other users on your network to access the hard drive without having access to the AirPort Extreme settings.
Click Continue. The window shown below appears.
Select I want to create a new wireless network.
Click Continue. The window shown below appears.
Enter a name for the wireless network in the Wireless Network Name field. This is the name that people will see when they look for your wireless network.
To secure the wireless network with a password, so that users have to authenticate before they can connect to your network and access the Internet, select WPA2 Personal and enter a password in the Wireless Password and Verify Password field.
Optional: To leave the wireless network open, so that any user can connect to your network and access the Internet without a password, select No security. This is not recommended for home networks.
Click Continue. The window shown below appears.
The AirPort Utility automatically detects whether or not the AirPort Extreme should be connected in bridge mode or share an IP address using DHCP and NAT.

Click Continue. The window shown below appears.
Unless have a special Internet connection, select Using DHCP from the Configure IPv4 menu.
Click Continue. The window shown below appears.
Click Update. The window shown below appears.
Click Continue. Wait for the AirPort Extreme to restart. The window shown below appears when the setup process is complete.
Click Quit. Now the new AirPort Extreme wireless network is now available, as shown below.
