• Problem of AirPort Extreme with AirPort Express network expansion

  I have a dual-band Airport Extreme 802.11n that I bought in 2012 which is currently my home wireless network. I am trying to extend the network with a new AirPort Express with the AirPort 6.3.6 utility running OS 10.11 on an iMac. The Airport Express appears in the option other Wi - Fi devices. When I select it, AirPort utility tries to connect and then I get this message "an unexpected error has occurred. Try again. "Try again does not lead to a different result, and I can't seem to find useful information in the documents support or conversations. Any suggestions? Thank you!

  It should be easy enough to operate the express, but you must tell us all the info.

  Configure the Express in the same room as the extreme.

  Using wireless to expand? Then you simply plug power in the Express... and it should pretty much automatically connect to the extreme.

  If you want to extend through ethernet, you should connect the Express in the extreme and make sure that the configuration of the airport utility selects extend by wire.

  If the Mac does not work you have the iphone or ipad and use Airport utility for iOS... it tends to be more reliable.

  Still no luck does your Mac have port ethernet... in this case, you can plug it into the computer with ethernet and try again... more wireless implementation looks like sawing off the branch to that which you are sitting.

• 970cse with airport express and USB printing

  I have a hp 970cse on the network via a USB cable and the Airport express. Router is AirPort Extreme. iMac (OSX 10.9.2) sees and prints well wireless. iPad (IOS 7.1) is on the network, but can't find the printer. Prints from the possible ipad using this config? Thx for any help

  Hello Darwinband welcome to the Forums of HP.

  I see you are having problems printing from your iPad.  This printer doesn't support ePrinting or Airprinting, this printer is not compatible with an iPad. For more information, please consult this document on HP Web-Connected printers and support of the Services of Cloud.

  Please let me know if you have any other questions and I thank you for display on the HP Forums.

• Mini TiVo with airport express

  My question is about the tivo, the Airport express and the extreme of the AC.  have the romaio standard tivo in my room and the mini in the other room about 25 feet, with thick walls about 7 feet.  the mini is to cut the audio and the video of course.  If the research online, wanting to know the best solution.  If the connections are such:

  1st room:

  Extremes of AP connected to the modem

  romaio connected by ethernet to AP extreme

  2nd room:

  AP express connected by ethernet to tivo mini

  Deck AP express under the name "extended" to the extreme

  bridge over the 2.4 ghz network

  so the question is whether to 'extend' or 'join' the network?

  or the other bridge then on the 2.4 ghz or 5 GHz?

  all the details, let me know

  There is no significant difference.

  so the question is whether to 'extend' or 'join' the network?

  or the other bridge then on the 2.4 ghz or 5 GHz?

  The question is fair level of signal and bandwidth.

  It is difficult to get the numbers now, as the utility v6 airport is no longer a toy only utility is to say a tool. As the use of a hammer plastic actually hammer in nails.

  Try to get the speed of connection... in v6, you roll your pointer over the connection. As thus.

  I have two gen5 connected AE as extend wireless... It did not work with long connection so I moved to the extreme a few feet from the other device. They are now about 4' apart.

  The connection now shows 195 MB/s, but you need to playback during the actual file transfer. It will go down considerably the work.

  

  If you can get a machine more old computer or windows and install the utility 5.6 you will get much more information.

  

  Links are not the same from one end to... Although here, it works fine. As I had before that connection showed ok one end but much poorer on the other... This info is now impossible to obtain in utility v6.

  25 ft away, with thick walls about 7 feet.

  I'm sure that the walls are 7 thick inches rather than 7feet.

  But everything depends on the construction and the number of walls.

  Light framing lumber and Sheetrock (rockboard?) have fairly low resistance wireless.

  Brick or concrete walls have a lot of resistance wireless... you must use ethernet or adapters EOP.

• Wireless shared time Machine backup with Airport Express?

  Hi all

  I looked around lately for a solution to this issue and who struggle to get by.

  I'm a musician, and at home, I have an iMac that I work on. Everything is there, basically. I have a Time Machine backup to an external drive.

  I also have my old MacBook that I use to play concerts. I have what I need for it there: especially Max/MSP patches, odd live recording and a few samples. I don't have a backup of it right now. Max patches are the only files not on my iMac.

  So far, all the files I need for two computers, I have sync with DropBox and OneDrive. I'm getting a little tired of copy things more, re-upload, forgetting where something is and having things scattered everywhere. Ideally I'd like a shared folder of a certain type that is always up-to-date on both computers. This folder will contain Max patches, live recordings and the weird thing I do away from home.

  I would also be able to save more flexible:

  • the iMac backup
  • Backup of MacBook Pro
  • Shared folder backup

  I've been looking around a bit and I'm not sure how best to do so. A kind of home server would be an option? I have not used one drop/airport/Time Capsule of Apple stuff before, so I'm not sure how they differ from each other.

  I like Time Machine, because I can't think to save things. If I could have three backups separated like the ones I mentioned (for the security and because my brain can deal with it better if it is presented that way), that upward with Time Machine or something similar, to some central place automatically.

  I looked at the airport in Time Capsule and it looks great, but I can't afford it right now. I also saw contradictory information on AirPort Express can be plugged into an external drive for backup, so if Time Machine can be used with wireless at all.

  I hope that what I am asking is logical. I would like the simplest solution to back up two computers and have a shared location for the common files needed on both.

  Thank you!

  Phil.

  So far, all the files I need for two computers, I have sync with DropBox and OneDrive. I'm getting a little tired of copy things more, re-upload, forgetting where something is and having things scattered everywhere. Ideally I'd like a shared folder of a certain type that is always up-to-date on both computers. This folder will contain Max patches, live recordings and the weird thing I do away from home.

  An option here would be to get a device connected to the network (SIN). This unit can store all the required files and be accessible to one of your computers on your home network. A number of these devices is also available remotely, when necessary. Here is an example.

  I would also be able to save more flexible:

  • the iMac backup
  • Backup of MacBook Pro
  • Shared folder backup

  To the extent not "have to think about backup things', Time Machine (TM) would be a solution that is easily available to you now. It would create separate for each Mac backups. In addition to using an external hard drive as you do now, other TM backup destinations could be:

  • A time Capsule
  • A 802.11ac AirPort Extreme with a connected USB hard drive. In this configuration, Apple calls the drive and the drive from the airport.
  • A NAS

  In the last item in the list, you see that a NAS could offer solutions for each of your goals. However, if you are on a tight budget, likely the most expensive company to undertake, as the physical drive of NAS enclosure can run around $400-600 only, without any installed readers. This is where the time Capsule can work out cheaper for you.

• Are there 2 seconds audio delay with Apple TV as with Airport express

  Audio reading of the Mac to stereo via Airport express has 2 second delay. If I replace the airport express to Apple TV and connect optical to HiFi audio link ATV still do 2 seconds?

  Welcome to the Apple community.

  I have no such delay when I play audio via an Airport Express station. You must determine if the problem is with your network or device that you have connected to the AirPort Express Terminal. I don't know what other hardware you have for you for you help in this task.

• Help with Airport Express and Configuration capabilities

  I have a new Airport Express which is set to expand the network wireless (created by Time capsule).  Is it possible to also provide a wired connection to another device in this mode?  If so, how do I need to change the settings? The other device is a hub of lighting (not wireless) which must have an Internet connection to allow remote control of lights.  It is currently connected to the CT but its location does not cover a part of the House, the new AE is the perfect place.

  Is it possible to also provide a wired connection to another device in this mode?

  Yes

  If so, how do I need to change the settings?

  Some settings need to be changed. By default, both the "O" WAN port and port LAN <>- both act as LAN ports. Choose one or both to an active Ethernet connection.

  The other device is a hub of lighting (not wireless) which must have an Internet connection to allow remote control of lights.

  Turning off the hub of lighting, make the Ethernet connection to the AirPort Express and the hub of power upward. You should be in business.

• Configuration HP6700 (41DF3D) of I-pad3 with AirPort Express.

  Impossible to follow through when "password" is asked that all network addresses are listed are locked. Also, the status on the AirPort Express Base Station light never goes solid green but still orange flashing. USB port on the base Station is connected to the USB port printer. A computer is NOT used. Help!

  I was able to 'load' 218 pages full of "usage guide" which has been mentioned on my I - pad. Then using the e - app 'HP' print all on my 6700. To operate the printer using router AirPortExpress? No, I have not yet resolved that but don't need that e-HP application allows me to print from the I - pad. I'll read the 'Guide' and perhaps much more. Thanks for the instructions. ARTprinter4

• There is Airfoil and Airport Express, latency/delay time?

  I want to be able to direct the output of my iMac "end 2014' 5K (10.11.6) on my stereo system (ParaSound P3/A23) using AirFoil 5 with Airport Extreme > Airport Express."

  But the audio output should be "real time." in other words, no delay or latency at all. Both are in the same room!

  I use notation software (Sibelius) and need to hear what I write immediately. Unlike streaming where I think there is an acceptable delay (2 seconds?) for the buffering?

  Is this possible please?

  If it isn't with AirFoil, any advice on how welcome :-)

  I want to be able to direct the output of my iMac "end 2014' 5K (10.11.6) on my stereo system (ParaSound P3/A23) using AirFoil 5 with Airport Extreme > Airport Express."

  With AirPlay (or Bluetooth), there will always be a form of delay or latency with streaming audio.

  In this scenario, an audio stream (on AirPlay) will go first to your iMac to AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express Terminal.

  To help understand why there will be delays, let's look at high-level "behind the scenes" about how works AirPlay:

  For the AirPort Express (AX), audio input is provided mainly by iTunes. Of course, it can also get feedback from other sources as you know, as of Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil.

  For streaming, iTunes or wing does most of the work. What is app reads audio content standard (AAC, MP3, audio books, Internet music streams, etc., it decompresses these file formats and creates what is essentially a raw, uncompressed audio stream.) This stream is compressed using Lossless Compression of Apple (via a QuickTime codec), encrypted with AES 128 bits and then listened (airplay) with an AXE. The stream is buffered for about 2 seconds until the stream is sent. The AX deciphers the flow, decodes and exports in a digital or analog PCM (using a built-in DAC) flows to its audio analog-to-digital versatile optical port.

  So, with the above, you can see that the tone does not simply move source to the destination without much more things. You will not be able to entirely eliminate the delay. Sorry!

• Airport Express - no internet if audio cable is connected

  Hello

  I have an Airport Express for several years already and it worked perfectly fine for me until today.

  I didn't know that the internet connection has stopped working. After trying different things, I realized that the internet connection works when I connect the audio cable to the the Airport Express - airport service program in the internet sign suddenly gets Orange and green not as soon as I connect the audio cable to use for AirPlay. When I disconnect the audio cable again, it works again.

  Any ideas of what this could be?

  In this way, that I can't use Airplay longer.

  Airport Express: Version 7.6.7.

  I tried the update of the AXE, but this did not help.

  Thanks to everyone for your ideas!

  Best regards

  Georg

  Is the Terminal AirPort Express the only router in the current configuration of your network? What is the brand and model of the Internet with a modem or gateway that you have the Express directly connected by Ethernet?

• Connect a printer non-airprint for the Airport express

  Can I use an express train from the airport as a stand-alone wireless network to allow printing from an IOS device.  I want to connect an AirPrint not printer to the usb port on the Express with no ethernet cable is connected and so no internet and use it as a printer from an IPhone?

  My main questions are

  1. a no AirPrint printer allows printing from IOS using the Airport Express Terminal

  2. If so, the Airport express can not be connected to the internet?

  Thanks in advance.

  1. a no AirPrint printer allows printing from IOS using the Airport Express Terminal

  Actually, no. Connect a non-AirPrint printer to the USB port on the base station will NOT make it capable AirPrint. In order to print from a device iOS on this printer, you need to a third party (such as the Printopia) application running on a Mac.

  2. If so, the Airport express can not be connected to the internet?

  Function of the Express print server does not have Internet access at work. In other words, you can have the Express create a local wireless network, connect a USB printer and share the printer on the LAN. However, yet again, if the printer is capable non-AirPrint, iOS devices will not be able to print directly to it.

• Can I plug two Airport Express units with ethernet cord and have a third Airport Express Terminal receive airplay music wirelesslly? In other words, can I combine a Wi - Fi network and roaming?

  I have an undesirable on the 1st floor, connected to the cable modem Ethernet event. I want to connect that AE to an another AE on 2nd floor with ethernet cable AND have a 3rd AE on the 1st floor to receive music through AirPlay wireless. I thought that linking the two first AEs with ethernet would improve the performance of web site on my iMac desktop, which is on the 2nd floor and connects to the 2nd floor AE via wifi. The EI the first two are newer model (MC414LL/A); the 3rd AE is old model (MB321LL/A) and is connected to a stereo Bose with a mini-jack to RCA cable double cord. I tried to set up this network using AirPort Utility, but have had no success. I don't know if it is possible to do what I want to do; and if this is the case, I don't know how to set the various parameters for each AE using AirPort Utility. I've temporarily implemented a purely wireless network; Do not connect DO NOT the two AEs with ethernet and everything works. I would enjoy my plan as above, or if I hold with purely network wireless. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Using ethernet network roaming between the two floors is a much better idea than anything wireless.

  The installation should be automagical if you start with the two AE plugged in by ethernet.

  It must be configured in standard roaming with identical names wireless.

  If you have any questions... Please, just after the airport utility screenshots of the configuration... but

  An express train is probably the router? You must confirm this.

  The second express is so configured in bridge... It's on the network tab, disable the bridge mode.

  

  Without thread is set to create a wireless network and simply use the same name and the same password as the other Express.

  As it should be automagical when you WAN on the second AE plugged into the LAN on the first AE.

  Wireless and then extend to will also be installed enough well automatically even if sometimes it works better in a client that extend wireless mode.

  See the Client mode.

• Can I use Airplay with an Airport Express station and a MacBook Air without going through a WAN connection?

  I want to set up my MacBook Air and an Airport Express so I can use iTunes and AirPlay to connect wireless to the AirPort Express Terminal and connected powered speakers to listen to the music in my iTunes library. Is this possible? I don't want to connect to an existing wireless network to do this. I want that this configuration to work wherever I am regardless of the availability of an existing WiFi network. I want a direct wireless connection between the MacBook Air and the Airport Express. Can anyone help with this?

  Thanks for your help in a confusing question.

  Yes, it will work.

  You must configure the Express in router mode... the EXTENDED network of the give a static IP address and ignore the problems. You will get several questions... because the network is internet-facing. They can all be ignored... This is how it is.

  You can also use a static IP configuration. I use this on a TC, but the same configuration on an Express might work better than router. It can be a delicate touch of the installation. So after some screenshots if you are having problems.

• Using airplay on airport express with wired connections

  Hello world

  I think in a very special configuration and I was wondering if it would work or not.

  I have a Linksys router with 802.11ac ability now. I wish I had a pregnant airplay on my network, so I thought buy a used Airport express, connect the speakers to it and plug the Airport express via a LAN cable to the linksys router. I also think to turn off wifi on the Airport express so it does not disturb my 802.11ac network.

  So the question is: is it possible to have the airport base station to connect to my router Linksys on LAN and airplay works this way on the Linksys WiFi network?

  Thank you

  Zoltan

  In theory, it works... but you will have to set up the AirPort Express to create a wireless first, then go back and turn off the wireless feature.

  Ensure that the Express is a common pattern of A1392, or the previous version of A1264. Much A1084 most, it's not what you want.
