3. How to download AirPort Utility for your devices To explore the AirPort Utility User Guide, click Table of Contents at the top of the page, or enter a word or phrase in the search field. If you need more help, visit the AirPort Support website.
4. Connect to your Airport Extreme, which will most likely appear as Apple Network followed by some letters. Next install the Airport software from the included CD. After installation, launch the Airport Utility application. This is located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, and in Start All Programs.

1. Open up Airport Utility, find your device, and hit 'Manual Setup'
2. Click the Internet tab
3. From there, click the DHCP tab
4. Find DHCP Ending Address. The first 3 values (i.e. the 10.0.1) will remain the same in your internal IP address (the address from which the ports will be forwarded, NOT your external IP). The last value (in this case 200) will be ONE number higher for your internal IP. Copy this number
5. Minimize Airport Utility.

    1. Remember that your internal IP is ONE digit higher than your DHCP Ending Address.
    2. For example, my DHCP Ending Address is 10.0.1.200 My IPv4 Address is therefore 10.0.1.201
11. Click 'OK' and then 'Apply'

    Steps 8-10

If you own an AirPort Extreme and use it as a router, you can specify default DNS servers for all of the devices connected to your wireless network. This is a great way to enforce enterprise network policies using OpenDNS, which allows you to implement security and filtering controls. And if you’re a home user, you can protect your children by configuring DNS servers for the entire house and enable parental controls with OpenDNS.

Note that this feature will not work if your AirPort Extreme is in bridge mode. If you are using bridge mode, you’ll need to configure the DNS servers on your router. Here’s how to change an AirPort Extreme’s DNS servers:

1. Open the AirPort Utility application. (It’s in Applications → Utilities.) The window shown below appears.

2. Click the AirPort Extreme’s icon. The status pop-up window appears.

3. Click Edit. The settings window appears.

4. Select the Internet tab. The window shown below appears.

5. Enter the DNS servers in the Primary DNS Server and Secondary DNS Server fields.

   • To use OpenDNS, enter 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
   • To use Google DNS, enter 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

6. Click Update. The AirPort Extreme will restart to apply the changes.

After the AirPort Extreme turns back on, the DNS servers you specified will be used by all of the devices connected to your wireless network.
