• Airport express to extend my wifi signal

  I bought and set up the Airport express to extend a wifi signal in my house. I do not have an airport extreme as a base station - I thought I could use the express to extend the signal from my router/modem from verizon. Is this possible?

  Turned it "on" now, I don't see the express network as an option in my combo network - so assuming that it will seek to expand, what's the problem with it only shows not not in the drop-down list?

  The AirPort Express only wireless may extend over a network that is provided by another router from Apple.  As such, it cannot extend wireless signal router left 3rd.

  Another way of saying the same thing, it's that if you want to extend wireless network using a router from Apple, you will need two routers Apple.

  If you can connect the AirPort Express Terminal to your main router using a wired Ethernet cable connection, permanent, then the Express can be configured to provide additional coverage of wireless signal in this way.

• Airport Express does not extend WiFi range

  OK, I posted a long time will cost about an airport older Gen Express not extending my wifi range when implemented to extend (wireless) and connected to a network of Apple (Airport Extreme). No solution, so I gave up.

  Still frustrated by the lack of a strong wifi signal to my back door / Garden (it is a small house!), I bought a new Express and set it up again to extend my current network, placed it on my window sill back room (where I get a pretty good wifi signal on my iPhone and iPad), but about 6 feet of him, the other side of the glass in my garden I get a flicker of 1-2 bars the signal strength that is de-energized intermittently.

  I get no significant (or even vaguely reasonable) increase in force wifi when I approach from the Express, but increase next to the extreme.

  Or should I put either the express until properly (I'm sure I'm) or I am fundamentally misunderstand the term "extend a wireless network. Alternatively, I bought 3 years 2 defective Express apart.

  Can anyone help?

  See you soon.

  You have a handy Mac laptop? If so, we can run tests to understand the current quality of the signal at each location where you want to have a Wi - Fi access. If all goes well, we can find better place to place your Express extension for your goals of networking.

• can anyone help with an Airport Express set to existing wifi if it is not recognized in utility?  I fired several times by default.

• Airport Express connection speed

  I have 40 MB/s internet speed down.  I have a new modem century link (recently moved home - new internet service) feed my Airport express.   Until a few days ago I received all 40 Mbps through my Airport Express wireless.  Now it is capped to 10 for some reason any.  The only thing that has changed is that I had to power cycle my modem to redirect a couple power cords in my basement.  When I connect my computer to the same ethernet cable that feeds the Airport express I get the full 40.  I tried to restart everything. I tried all channels 2,4 ghz manual on the express (I didn't configured 5 GHz because I really don't need right now).  I don't know why its running at 10 and not 40 like a few days ago.

  What is the brand and model of your modem provided by century link? What exact model is your base station AirPort Express? Is the Express directly connected to the modem by Ethernet?

• Airport Express connection problem

  I have an old Airport Express I can not connect to.  My utility program Airport says that it does not support this Airport Express device.

  The version of AirPort Utility which is required to administer the old 802.11 g AirPort Express does not work with newer versions of Mac OS X or on iOS devices. You would need either a Mac OS X lion or earlier, or a PC running Windows XP or 7 that does not have the correct version for this base station.

  In addition, a base station that old was its useful life and it can be much simpler to replace it with a newer model.

• How to document iMac to my apple tv 2, but sending audio to the Airport express connected to my hifi

  I have an iMac, a macmini an express airport. I want to send 720 p video to the Apple TV 2 iMac (or macmini) but send audio to the express from the airport which is connected to my stereo. If the apple TV 2 will serve as a video receiver connected to my projector on the ceiling. (I don't have a way to use a hdmi cable). This is the reason why audio must be sent to the hifi differently.  Alternatevely because the macmini is connected by USB cable to my hifi (to my dac), perhaps there is a way to send audio from a movie to the stereo through audio external USB card (it is the dac) while reflecting the macmini for the Apple TV 2...

  in iTunes, you can select more then 1 speaker output could be the express and then mirrored to the appletv in the manner of STDS, if is not in iTunes then I think that you need a third party such as the wing option

• Airport Express does not connect to WiFi!

  My Airport Express has lost its connection to the WiFi and cannot reconnect, keeps flashing yellow!

  It is only used to stream music from my iPad and not connected via ethernet. Its working well for 2 years until he lost the connection to my iPad because I took the iPad out of range of WiFi. Now, I can't get the the airport to connect to the WiFi again.

  I tried to reset button Reset 20 sec, also tried turning setting turned off and now the reset button for a maneuver on once again, however, does not. Any ideas?

  Gorm.

  Hello

  There may be a firmware update available.

  Open the AirPort Utility application located in HD > Applications > utilities , then click on the AirPort Express .

  If an update is available, you must do.

• express problem airport works as a wired wifi Extender

  I have TW cable for internet in bridge mode and not as a DHCP server.  This is directly related to the port WAN to a time capsule extreme Airport (1-2 years).  The time capsule has a link to 16 port 10/100 netgear switch to one of the LAN ports.  About 3 weeks ago, I added 2 new Airport Express to expand the wifi of my very large House.  I ran the hard lines to the Airport Express as well.  Each express is set to bridge mode and just to extend the wifi network.  The extreme time capsule is the DHCP server.  Everything works fine as long as the couple declares itself to the extreme to the wifi, but this does not solve my problems of scope and speed on the other side of the House that expresses it is installed to cover.

  Problem: When it expresses the airport is not connected I get a ping void 5ms from a computer on the local network to express it and extreme.  Once I Plug one of them in the cable system my time to ping for all devices are very erratic.  From time to time they are in the range 1-10ms, but more often they are in the range of 1-2 seconds and exhale.  Once, I disconnect or hard of the line time to ping back to normal within 5 seconds.

  Troubleshooting attempted so far: even once, I connected one or the other of expresses it to the hard line the problem occurs.  Disconnect it and connect the other the same thing.  Connect them directly to the Airport extreme still same thing.  Connect the express directly to a PC and run ping test, void 1ms response times and no change for the rest of the devices.  Ethernet connected to the WAN port of expresses it instead of the LAN port same question.  Repunched and re made the end of the cable used to one of them, same problem.  Called Apple and they told me it should work, and provided with additional troubleshooting.

  Firmware on all the devices have been updated about 3 weeks after I got them stable on wifi.  Unfortunately I do not have the written down version, but they are all on the same version now.  All devices have a green light on them when just using wifi to talk to the extreme.  When wired in airport utility devices drop the GUI are available intermittently and back.

  Whats to test I can think of to the left: replace the extreme airport time capsule.  Replace expresses it.  Wipe off the network completely and start over from scratch with a factory reset complete.

  Any help would be appreciated, I am amazed as to why it does not work.

  Each express is set to bridge mode and just to extend the wifi network.

  And this... extend the WiFi network... is the problem.  When the Express is configured to "extend a wireless network", it waits a connection without wire of the main router. When an Ethernet signal is applied, this translates a huge feedback loop blocking, network.

  Start over and do a hard reset on each of the AirPort Express devices

  Then for the Setup, use a short piece of spare Ethernet cable... any length will do... and plug it between a LAN port <>- on AirPort Extreme on the "O" WAN port on the AirPort Express Terminal

  Don't forget to make the Ethernet connection before you try to implement the Express. In this way, the "Wizard" will pick up the Ethernet connection and apply the correct settings for the Express installation.

  Use "Wizard" Apple's Installation in AirPort Utility to configure things. When you do so, you will notice that the final configuration screen will indicate that the AirPort Express is set up to "extend with Ethernet', who must confirm that the correct settings apply to the Express.

  

  The first Express is now properly configured. It turned off and move it to the remote location where it is needed. If your Ethernet cables and the Ethernet switch works correctly, so too the Express will work properly.

  Implement the second Express exactly the same way as the first, except him give a different device... as Express2 name, for example... to keep things straight.

• Airport Express wifi speed

  Hello

  I have a 200 Mbps TWC service. I use TWC provided modem Arris 1070a (NAT = bridge) and have an Airport Express connected via Ethernet to my wireless router.

  When I connect my macbook pro directly to the modem arris via ethernet, I get over 200 Mbps download speed. However, when I use my wifi 5 GHz of my Airport express network, I'm only syncing on 30mbps.

  I understand that the Express has a 10/100 Ethernet port, but I should at least get 80 or 90 Mbps on wifi.

  Any ideas that I can do to get a speed more fast wifi other than trying to the extreme?

  Thank you

  Vishal200

  However, when I use my wifi 5 GHz of my Airport express network, I'm only syncing on 30mbps.

  What is the speed of the wireless link? Option, click the wifi icon in the top menu. This will give you lots of useful information...

  You must be related to the 300mbps... If this isn't the case, it will go just not fast.

• I have an Airport Express, which gives an unexpected error message when you try to connect to an existing network of WEP.  Any ideas.  Tried the factory returned. He was knocked offline when someone dug into the telco cables.

  I have an Airport Express, which gives an unexpected error message when you try to connect to a router WEP (Verizon) existing iOS9.3.2

  It flashes orange, but can not be reconnected to the router or to the title of the Setup Assistant or Airport utility.  Is there a way to reconnect to WIFI or should I bite the bullet and connect via Cat5e and be done with it.  My VPN works much better without AirPort Express connected.

  Sorry, but there is no WEP settings AirPort Utility on the iPhone or iPad, or any Mac version of AirPort Utility which was used for the last 4 years or so.

  If you have an older Mac still running AirPort 5.x utility or a PC with the AirPort for Windows utility installed on the device, the WEP settings that could be used to get the Express to connect to a WEP network there.

  As you know, WEP has not been secured for a number of years, and there are any number of free utilities available on the Internet, which is crack a WEP network in a few seconds. Thus, all those who want to be on your network will not have problems to do very quickly.

  But it's your call.

• Connect AirPort Express to lemon (Rogers Rocket) Wireless Modem/Router

  I just got Rogers Wireless internet new modem/router Hitron.  I use modem/router mode.  It's great. Very fast and a lot of range. Covers all 3 floors of my house.

  I want to connect an Apple Terminal to my Hitron router with an ethernet cable and put the Hitron in Bridge mode. I want to continue to use the Hitron router as my main and only router.

  However on another floor, I would use an Apple Airport Express connected to my stereo with a jack 1/8 '' to play my music wirelessly from my iTunes from Apple.

  To do this, I need this Apple Airport Express Terminal to 'find' the Hitron router.  How can I get to find the router Hitron?

  I guess that you have a current version or recent of the AirPort Express with the default settings.

  As long as the AirPort Express is located where it can receive a strong signal of the modem/router...and wireless Hitron the Hitron aircraft provides a wireless signal that uses industry standard wireless settings, the AirPort Express can 'join' the wireless network. Wired Ethernet is not necessary.

  Note that the AirPort Express will not "spread" or "repeat" the signal from the router/modem lemon to provide additional coverage of wireless signal wireless, but it can be used to join the wireless network and provide a signal of airtime for your stereo.

  Simply use a Mac running a current or recent operating system, or an iPhone/iPad and configuration "Wizard" Apple to set up things upward. The wizard will automatically offer the correct configuration to 'join' the wireless network. All you really need to do is to enter a device name that you want to use for the AirPort Express and the password of the wireless network and confirm.

  Start the wizard by clicking on AirPort Express under the title of the new AirPort base station.

  

  On an iPhone or iPad, the screen looks like this:

  

  In the example below, the wizard has detected a network named "2WIRE902" for the AirPort Express join. You will see the name of the wireless network that provides the Hitron modem/router on your screen. Just enter a name of device for the Express, then type the wireless network password, then type it again to verify.

  Click next at the bottom right of the window and the AirPort Express displays a green light for a minute or two and you're done.

  

• 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.

• I just bought a new Airport Express Terminal. It connects to my laptop, but not my other devices such as iphone/ipad. Any suggestions?

  I just bought a new Airport Express Terminal. It connects to my laptop and I have working internet, but my iphone/ipad do not work with it. They say they are "connected" to the wireless network but nothing works / charges on other devices. I tried to forget the network, by renewing the lease, etc and nothing works. Any suggestions as to why my laptop works but not other devices?

  What is the serial number and model of the modem you use?... or... The AirPort Express connects directly to the Ethernet wall port?

• Make an express airport only connect to an another AE and not the main Time Capsule.

  Hi all

  I have a Time Capsule airport and 2 Airport Express. The Capsule is far and an of the expressed airport is in the middle (call this) 1 and the other far from it, I'm calling this 2. As it is now, the 2nd Airport Express terminal connects to Time Capsule. However, it gives me much lower speed (Interruptions during the game). But if the 2nd Airport Express connects to the AE first, which is the extension of the network of transport CANADA, significantly improves the speed.

  I've tried everything. All devices are relatively new (think of the last model). I called the Apple Support, but their solution was to any wire. I asked if the 2nd AE can be configured statically, but they have quoted me their policy, which is not supported and took my info and never called back. I read the posts of the forum, but could not find any relevant information.

  Can someone tell me how I can do the 2nd AE connect only to the AE 1 (in the middle) so I can get faster speed for the game device wired to the 2nd AE? Your feedback is much appreciated.

  Kind regards

  B.

  When you try to extend using the wireless, there will be a loss of speed associated with the process.

  When the two Airport Express connect to Time Capsule, it will be more loss of speed because the 2 devices are connecting and extending.

  If the 2nd Airport Express does not connect to... Time Capsule and it connect instead to the 1st AirPort Express... then 2nd Terminal AirPort Express doesn't have to extend the network.  The 2nd Airport Express could be used for AirPlay, or to connect to a remote printer on the USB port, but it cannot 'expand' or 'repeat' in this case the signal of the wireless network.

  So you're wrong bing into thinking that the network is the extension more quickly if the 2nd Express connects to the 1st. Your network will behave at the faster speed even if you just turn off the 2nd Express.  It is not at all in any case extending the network, and you don't need.

  Here's another way to look at the same thing... using an illustration of the Apple support document for the extension of a network:

  

  IF... you can connect the 1st Terminal AirPort Express at the time using an Ethernet cable Capsule... then... the 2nd Airport Express would extend the signal from the first... but speed would be because you are trying to extend using the wireless.

  SO... connect the AirPort Express devices using Ethernet... then you will have maximum coverage at the highest speed... Since there is no loss of signal via the Ethernet cable.
