• Airport Utility/Airport Express

  I have an old Airport Extreme and an old Airport Express with the Express connected via powerline and as an access point and using the same SSID as the end.

  The system actually works very well, but my question relates to Airport utility, namely that the Express appears in THE time time, has a Mark Green beside him for awhile, then the exclamation mark in a yellow triangle telling me it "was" part of my network but it is is no longer accessible.

  This depends on the sound being defined as an access point, or is it just a quirk that I should live with?  Have a system that works, but is not able to check by the utility Airport is a minor and of course much better than the reverse drawback but I'm curious to know why this is happening.  Thank you

  AirPort Utility is based on both the mDNS (aka, Hello) and IPv6 IP protocols to find an AirPort base station. Don't forget that both of your AirPort base stations more iMac are configured for IPv6 link-local only.

  • For a Mac: System preferences > network > Wi - Fi or Ethernet > advanced > TCP/IP tab > configure IPv6: link-local only
  • For the AirPort Base Station:
    Note: You may temporarily connect your Mac or PC directly to the base by Ethernet station to access.
    • From a Mac: AirPort Utility > select the base station > change > Internet tab > Internet Options... > configure IPv6: link-local only
    • Since an iOS device: AirPort Utility > tap the base station > press Edit > tap Advanced > tap on IPv6 > change configure IPv6 to: link-local only > Tap actually

  For mDNS, it is a matter of "all or nothing" since OS X Mavericks. Unfortunately, there is no real settings, you can change this.

  Some references for more information:

  • Base station airPort not seen or "an unexpected error has occurred" appears in point 6.3 AirPort Utility -Apple Support
  • AirPort base station does not appear in the 1.3 AirPort Utility for iOS -Apple Support

• Airport Express has stopped working after a reboot?

  My internet is slow so I disconnected all my gear to restart, and subsequently, my Airport Express flashes orange and doesn't seem to work. It is used as an Extender for internet and wireless printing. The Internet access does not work in the room in which it is located, and the WiFi is low, around this room. Internet working in other parts of the House near my Airport extreme AC.  I opened Airport utility and the only thing that appears is the Internet connected to the AirPort Extreme this. The Airport Express is not displayed. What can I do to fix this?

  Thanks in advance!

  • Soft reset: perform this reset if you forget your password.  Soft reset resets your password and disables security settings (settings of access control and RADIUS are temporarily interrupted). Forget the password would normally prevent connection or device configuration. If you make no changes within five minutes to do a soft reset, the unit will return to its former State. All the parameters of the device will be available once it has rebooted.
  1. Connect the device to the power supply and wait for it to complete its startup process.
  2. Press in and hold the reset button with a pen, a pencil or paper clip straightened for 1 full second, then release it. The lamp (LED) starts amber flashes, indicating that the unit is in soft reset mode.
  3. In the airport menu bar item, choose the network created by the device (the network name does not change).
  4. Open utility AirPort from Applications > utilities.
  5. Select the base station, and then click on edit (editing window indicates that the base station is in Soft Reset mode).
  6. Move tabs to make changes to your passwords or other settings as needed, then click on update and continue, as requires it
  7. Quit AirPort Utility.

• Airport Express - USB drive not visible in the finder

  I have a brand new Airport Express that I currently use as an Extender for our old time Capsule. I would like to share a USB between computers. The Aiport utility see the drive.

  

  

  However, the Finder does not show the drive.

  In the future this extreme with a USB (mini 4 TB drobo) will be in our caravan to help us to do video editing and blogging with 2 computers on the road.

  Finder are not displayed at the start of the drive, but it should display the AirPort Extreme under the Shared heading in the left side of the Finder window.

  In the example below, my AirPort Extreme (called AEBS) has a drive named 500 GB drive connected to the USB port at the back of the unit.

  

  By clicking on the AEBS, another window displays the name of the player on the right side of the window.

  

  Double-click to mount the drive on the desktop.

  

  Now you can drag and drop files on the disc icon, or open the drive and drag the files into the opened window, which represents the drive.

• Problems connecting to an AirPort Express, which already extends another Express.

  Hey everybody, I just want to know if it is possible for an Airport Express to connect to an OTHER Airport Express which is already expanding an Airport Extreme.

  Post edited by: Kas1302

  It is possible for the Express to connect to another Express which is the extension of the network already... BUT... the 'last' Express will not extend the network once again, if that's what you're really asking here.

  This is because Apple doesn't allow the wireless signal to be extended only once, not two.

  It would seem that the last Exrress is the extension of the network, but it is not.  It is 'join' the wireless network, and when he "joined", it doesn't provide any additional wireless signal coverage.  However, the last Express could still work for AirPlay, or a USB printer remotely.

  Feature of "extend" Apple works as the hub and the spokes of a wheel.  The main router is the 'hub', and an Extender would be located at the end of "sticks". As such, he communicates directly to the main router.  You can have multiple devices, the expansion of the network at the end of the other rays, but each Extender must communicate directly with the main router.

• Airport Express which runs from the BT Home Hub

  Hello

  I have an iMac and a Mac who need backup, and I also want to extend the signal wi - fi upstairs in my house.

  I bought a time capsule from the airport, the main Airport utility and tried to implement.

  Can I GRT at the stage where it broadcasts a Wi - Fi connection name and I can connect to it OK but it does not connect to the internet.  I'm clicked on edit and go to the WiFi settings and set it to the BRIDGE and put in the name of wifi BT HH and password but still nothing.

  I googled this and there seems to be some discussions that say it last only another apple product and some that say you can use it with HH BT wireless?

  Can someone give me an asnswer difinitive please and tell me how (if possible) to implement wireless to expand the wifi signbal.

  Thank you very much

  Function of "extend a wireless network" Apple owns... .it will only extend wireless signal from another router from Apple.

  At one time... over 3 years ago... it was possible to configure time Capsule to connect to a router from another manufacturer. It is a parameter to "join a wireless network.  But he could not "extend" the network when he does this.

  The "Join" option has been removed since more than 3 years, because it was highly reliable.

  If you want to use the time Capsule with the Home Hub, Time Capsule must connect to the Home Hub using wired Ethernet wired, permanent.  Then, if you wanted to "extend" the signal Time Capsule wireless wireless, you might add another router from Apple, such as an AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express.

  The bottom line here... If you want wireless "extend" an Apple product, you will need two routers Apple to do.

• Laptop stopped seeing Apple AirPort Express

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with the Wi - Fi with Apple Airport Express (http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/). Windows XP on my laptop Toshiba Satellite M70-339 PSM77E this is crushed about 4-5 days ago and since then he stopped to see the network Airport 4 days ago (but it can still detect the other networks). I think something in the network settings changed on my laptop. That's what I have:

  1 there is Airport Express Mac and a PC laptop Toshiba Satellite M70-339 PSM77E with Windows XP Home Edition.

  2 mac sees the Airport network (and some other neighborhood networks). It is connected to the Internet and it works fine.

  3 laptop with Windows XP stopped seeing the network 4 days without any reason (but it can still detect the other networks of neighborhood, so the material is activated and it works). I had the network works for about 6 weeks. When I first tried to find the network (about 6 weeks ago) I had the same problem: the laptop could not see the network, but then I worked I had a few other internal network settings in my laptop after I removed it, it detected the Airport network. I even used Express Admin Airport utility (or sth like this) to set the WPA security for our network.

  4. to solve my problem now, I tried almost everything I found in apple.com forums and some other related forums this issue, but it seems that this problem is usually solved by chance.

  5. I tried to repair the network connection (by selecting repair in the settings), I removed the networks all the favourites, I had, I disabled all firewall, I tried with different laptop computer IP configuration (I know that he doesn t have nothing to do with the detection of the network, but I was frustrated). I even updated my WiFi drivers and the laptop cannot always detect Airport network (However it can see all the others who are in the region). There is no interference between the laptop and the Airport (the problem doesn t also depend on the distance between the laptop and the device).

  Please give me suggestions. Don't forget the laptop used to detect the network without any problem, and the Internet worked well.

  See you soon,.

  Hello Jakub

  You will be very happy if anyone has experiences with Apple Airport Express and can offer a concrete solution. After losing question have you tried to roll back OS to an earlier time using System Restore tool?

  When the OS works well and stable it is always good to create system restore points or do some sort of backup image. I do this all the time and I'm not worried if something goes wrong.

  Sorry, Jakub, but if you can't find an answer or solution on the apple forum I really don't think you will find it here. The fact is that the WLAN card works, but how to set it up with Apple Airport Express. I don't really know, but as you said already, maybe you need a chance.

• Airport Express

  I have an old airport express (used as an extender) and a Comcast cable modem. In order to get a signal on my iPhone (AT & T), I had a microphone AT & T cell. I can't use the microphone cell as there is only a single port ethernet on the modem. If I buy a new Terminal Airport Express or extreme, either will work as an Extender of the internet to my computers iMac so that boost the signal of my iPhone?

  If they both work (see above), port (WAN or LAN) must be connected to the extension of the computer and that for increase of cell signal? Thanks for your help.

  I have an old airport express (used as an extender) and a Comcast cable modem.

  Extending Terminal AirPort Express? What is the brand and model of the cable modem supplied by Comcast?

  In order to get a signal on my iPhone (AT & T), I had a microphone AT & T cell. I can't use the microphone cell as there is only a single port ethernet on the modem. If I buy a new Terminal Airport Express or extreme, either will work as an Extender of the internet to my computers iMac so that boost the signal of my iPhone?

  If your modem is a simple modem, an AirPort base station would work. For the extension, the 'old' AirPort Express should be a 802.11n model if you want to do it with a wireless connection between base stations.

  By "restart my iPhone signal" If you are referring to his cellular signal, then no.. Only the MicroCell can do that.

• Airport Express, Time Capsule and Airport Express using the same network

  Just moved into a new House and this is what I install.  I have 7 Port wired into the House.

  Closet of network in the Garage:

  • Cable modem
  • Airport Express
  • netgear switch 8 ports
  • It works pretty well.  All my wired connections work fine.  Wireless is quite good but cove not enough of space in my house.

  Think about adding my airport express capsule of time in my office - plugged into one of the hard wired connections.  Who works AND let me wish the WIFI?

  Thank you!

  Yes fine, assuming that first test you the Ethernet port in the office by connecting a computer (with WIFI disabled on the computer) using a spare Ethernet cable runs to ensure that the computer can get a good connection in this way.

  Put the airport Time Capsule to create a wireless network that uses the exact same wireless network name and password in your existing network. Apple installation "Wizard" automatically configure airport Time Capsule in the correct setting of the Bridge Mode for the device.

• Configure Airport Express with D-Link router

  I am currently using a router D-Link with my MacBook. I want to use Airport Express plug my MacBook on my amplifier. When I tried to set up the Airport Express, Airport utility can't find it. I can't connect the Airport Express Terminal to the D-Link router by ethernet cable, because the amplifier that I connect it is too far from the telephone jack.

  You use the wireless bridge mode... what apple being different named wireless client mode.

  See AirPort Express: what is client mode?-Apple Support

• Can I use an old station Airport Express to extend your network using a new Airport Express Terminal?

  I had an old Airport Express station and wanted to exchange for a newer version and use the old ones to expand the range in our House. Is this possible?

  By 'old' are you referring to the AirPort Express (model A1084) to 802.11 g? If Yes, then you won't be able to use it to extend the latest Express with a wireless connection between them.

  However, you can use it in a roaming network configuration, which would force base stations to be connected by Ethernet.

• Airport express to extend wi - fi using the adapter but NOT extreme airport

  Hello

  I am looking to buy an express airport in order to listen to music through my stereo and also create another network wireless upstairs in my house.

  My question is, I currently have no apple down wireless router and I have connected to a line adapter with an adapter of the power line on the floor. If I connect the airport express base station to the adapter on the floor, I'll be able to create another network on the floor as well as the flow of my music, even if the router that comes from the connection is not apple router?

  Thank you

  Andy

  If the floor of the Airport Express will be connected via the WAN port using a regular power adapter ethernet cable carrier online and will be in Bridged mode, you can create a wireless network to the floor. Not bridged mode, you can see double-NAT issues, which should be avoided.
