Hi guys,
I bought an ATC a few months ago, and did not set it up properly at the office, since by that time we were installing a backup server, a twin wifi connected to mine, etc.
Well, now I found time to deal with it so I tried to connect it, but found that impossible (ambar light blinking, of course):
(steps I followed: 1. Light off the router 2. connect the ethernet cable to the router and the ATC in the bottom switch 3. light the router and the ATC.).
- First of all, every time I connect the ATC to the router via the ethernet cable, the internet provided by the router does not work. It is like the ATC steals the internet signal, so I cannot even browse the web or do anything else (including looking for help or update the firmware)
- In that case, in the main screen of the Airport Utility App, several problems are highlighted in orange and displayed once I click on the ATC image: (1) WAN setup warns about security (2) Problem with DNS (3) Problem with PPoE (4) No internet connection.
The Wifi I once created from the ATC exists, and the devices can see it, but it does not connect (trying by PPPoE but does not succeed).
I also tried to connect directly the ethernet cable from the ATC to the iMac, but the latter does not even find the ATC.
Could somebody guide me step to step? I find myself completely lost, I am far from being a tekky...
Thanks very much in advance!
