Airport extreme has green light but yet I have no internet. when I disconnect the AirPort and just run through the D link modem the connection returns. is this because i have not configured it correctly, what should the IpV6 settings be?
AirPort Extreme-OTHER, Windows 7, D-Link Dsl-320B modem
Anytime you change networking hardware it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of that hardware. Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details.
For IPv6, unless your ISP fully supports IPv6, you can leave these settings at their defaults.
Thanks for the advice, I've tried that but to no avail could it be to do with some internal settings on the router?
Had this problem only once - green light but no internet. Reset the Airport Extreme and then reconfigure or reload configuration from backup file. Worked for me.
If you have performed the 'factory default' reset, then your AirPort would default to broadcasting an unsecured wireless network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. It would also be configured as a DHCP client so that the Internet modem could pass along the ISP's IP information. If the DLink modem is actually a combination modem & router (or gateway) device, then the AirPort would need to be further configured as a bridge. This would allow the DLink to provide the necessary NAT & DHCP services so that clients connected to either router would be able to access the Internet.
