iphone 4 won't connect with airport extreme 5th generation

Just bought a brand new AP extreme, and the computer links up fine, but iphones repeatedly time out.

Any ideas?


Running Lion, and iOS 5


Thanks in advance.

Ditto here too. I was helping a friend update her AP Extreme today. Reset the modem. Reset the AP Extreme. iMac links wirelessly with the AP Extreme and gets to the Internet - no problem. However, not one iPhone in the house (3 of them - one iPhone 4 and two iPhone 3s) will access the interest with the AP Extreme.


Each of the 3 iPhones recognized the AP Extreme and one of them (a 3 without updated software on it) will actually show that there is a connection to the AP Extreme. Two of the iPhones (4 and 3 (both of which have latest updates) work perfectly everywhere else we've been (FL, NC, Germany) in the last few weeks. They also work perfectly on the two AP Extremes in our house.


I've read a bunch of support and this seems to be a recurring problem for which there does not appear to be a good solution. Is there anything more current in guidance that might help????


Thanks also in advance.
