[Auspicious]

I have DSL from side to side Qwest. I have contained an iPhone 3G and a laptop by means of iTunes the entire on the similar wireless network. My previous router broke (do not remember the model) and in view of the fact that then I have not been capable to utilize my iPhone Remote to control iTunes. The iPhone Remote runs to organize iTunes on the laptop when I am associated to several additional wireless network, so I am attractive certain the tribulations lies in the innovative Actiontec PK5000 router with the intention of I got when the previous one broke down. In view of the fact with the intention of it works on additional networks, I am certain with the intention of the entire necessary ports are open from side to side the Windows Firewall on my laptop. As far as I be able to tell, there be supposed to be no packet filtering occurring on the router connecting apparatus on the wireless network, additional than something has to be blocking it. Has anybody had several successes by means of this specific combination (iPhone 3G, fully updated, Laptop working with windows 7 and an Actiontec PK5000 router). I necessitate several suggestions what to give the impression of being at to try and solve this.

I have these accurate similar tribulations. My apparatus work extremely well on additional wireless networks. I have in addition checked the entire of the recommended fixes in iTunes additional than it's only when I am associated to the PK5000 with the intention of this tribulations happens. I in addition immediately realized my AirportExpress drops off the network subsequent to a few minutes of being configured. At present I do not have remote speakers moreover. I have the similar issue by means of my iPod touch and the PK5000 router. I endeavor my old router and it worked then tried my innovative one and it does not work. I in addition used the port forwarding recommended in this apple article and it tranquil did not work.

I am not be able to get my airport express to hang regarding connected to our innovative PK5000 for additional than a small number of minutes at a time. Most of them merely utilize the airport express for airtunes. It determines to work subsequent to configuring from scratch, additional than once it drops off the network most of them not be able to get it back. I have the identical difficulty by means of the PK500. Tech support for together Actiontec and Apple were stumped. I endeavor my IPOD Touch and Mac Mini on an additional wireless network and it instantaneously hooked up and worked extremely well. Together apparatus attach to the internet additional than do not recognize each additional utilizing the 'Remote' App.

Most of them are having the similar tribulations by means of a Qwest Actiontec M1000 modem. I have the M1000 modem additional than I did not order the wifi module for the reason that I previously had an Airport Extreme Base Station. For the reason with the intention of I did not get the wifi module, I by no means had these tribulations by means of the remote app. Yes the identical tribulations by means of iTunes, iPhone remote and the attractive ActionTec pk5000. I spoke by means of Qwest who provided the modem they were clueless. Does not give the impression of being similar to anybody has found a solution. I encompass a LinkSys wireless router lying in the back of a cupboard which I determine to try hooking up the entire in excess of again.

In this you have to put out of action WPS on Qwest modem/built-in wireless router (from side to side your web browser, type in your Qwest prearranged IP address to open Qwest Modem arrangement, on one occasion to the blue page hit it off on "wireless setup", after that you have to hit it off the circle button for off, scroll down, and click apply). The yellow Ethernet cable with the intention of did attach to your system at present requirements to plug-in to the underside of the AirPort Express (you might necessitate to plug in the Ethernet cable to AirPort Express when unplugged, grasp a paperclip on the reset button at the same time as plugging in and wait for the illumination to flash to reset to factory defaulting settings in case you have used it formerly for AirTunes). Follow on screen instructions. So at present you have airport express as your "wireless router" as an alternative.

I make use of the similar work approximately as clear_star. I contacted actiontec and they told me remote to have right of entry/media streaming is a recognized issue by means of the pk5000. For some reason, it not be able to attach remotely to many apparatus (iphones, gaming consoles, etc.), meaning I might not attach to my xbox 360. Turning off the wireless function and utilizing the airport express I previously had was the perfect work approximately for my tribulations. Too terrible the pk5000 has this issue, for the reason that I feel affection for it's speed.

I have an additional work approximately if your system has Airport on it. Set up a (protected) computer-to-computer network utilizing Airport and attach iPhone or Ipod/touch Remote to iTunes with the intention of technique. I believe most of them found with the intention of you not be able to utilize with the intention of network to attach to Airport Express; additional than no matter, you utilize the network associated by means of the Actiontec to do that. I might in addition have used a NetGear modem with the intention of I have lying approximately; putting out off action the WiFi on the ActionTec, other than this in addition works.
