I try a soft, hard and factory settings and still not showing not allowed me to configured, so had to use my PC to set it up and is working fine, yet I still not able to configure it using my MAC and doesn't show on the airport utility; what can i do??😕
Airport Extreme-OTHER, iOS 9.3.2
Make sure your Mac's OS X is up to date.
Open the App Store then select Updates from the menu.
It should definitely show up in the AirPort Utility window.
Hi Carolyn, thanks for the reply. System is up to date but still doesn't show
Hi,
Which OS X is installed?
Make sure your AirPort Utility software is up to date > Update the software on your AirPort base station - Apple Support
I have el capitan 10.11.5; So i downloaded the Airport Utility on my IPhone and I see the Airport Extreme, still not on my macbook pro

I got version 6.3.6 (636.5) on my mac; On the other hand on my Iphone is showing perfectly and I'm able to configure and everything. So, on my mac i when on airport utility/file/configure others and with the IP I was able to access the settings of the Airport Extreme; but still not show on the airport utility map
AirPort Utility on an iPhone or iPad is better than AirPort Utility on a Mac, so you might want to use the iPhone or iPad and ignore the Mac.
If you want to use the Mac anyway, check to make sure that the IPv6 settings on your Mac are set to Link Local Only.
Thanks Bob, Indeed the IPv6 was off on my MAC, so now is set to local only and its showing on the airport map. 🙂
Airport Extreme doesn't show on the airport utility map
