Connecting External Hard Drives to an Airport Extreme
Hi:
I have been reading about AirPort Utility and how some folks are having problems reading or seeing an external hard drive connected to an Airport Extreme station. Well… I have the same problem, I connected a Maxtor 1 TB USB HD to my Airport Extreme and I can’t even see it on the Airport Utility. I have 2 Airport Express stations connected, one in my kitchen and the other one in the living room. I use them to send music to my wireless speakers and they work great! I can also see them in the Airport Utility, but cannot see the Maxtor HD. I formatted the HD using my MacBook Pro and re-connected the drive to the Airport Extreme again and no luck.
Any thoughts or ideas would be great.
I also noticed that the Airport Utility looks different from before, it must have been updated at some point. But what I can see on this new look utility is that the Airport Extreme station is connected with the two Airport express stations, but that’s it, no HD.
I may be looking in the wrong place because I can’t access options I was able to access before such as changing the Airport Express’ name, etc.
Can anyone shed some light to this Airport Extreme Utility.
Thanks!
Manolo.
