Airport Express - to extend the wireless network

Hello

I have 1 Airport Extreme, make a wireless network and I have 3 Airport Express, to extend the network.

the Airport Express Terminal 2 have connection whit Airport Extreme. The last of them is too far. The last of them can connect to one of the Airport Express 2 located in Pentecost Airport Extreme connection to expand further?

Sorry, but no.  The distant Express which is too far can connect to one of expresses it airport who are already extending the network... so that it can be used for AirPlay or to connect a USB printer. .. .but the distant Express cannot "extend" the wireless network and provide additional wireless coverage.

Ideally, your network could have AirPort Extreme, placed in a central location in the House, and each Express which extends the network would be located approximately the same distance from AirPort Extreme... and... ACH Express would be closer to the AirPort Extreme to another Express.

If this is not possible, then you need to look at a wired Ethernet cable solution for at least one of the Express features, or an Ethernet Powerline solution if you cannot run the Ethernet cable.

    Setting up a wireless network

  • Cannot set the Airport Extreme to extend the existing network

    Network WiFi of my holiday home is provided by the router from my ISP (Time Warner). I have an Airport Extreme, which used to be configured to provide the WiFi network to another well, and I would use it to extend the existing on the TWC router network.

    I had a lot of trouble to do a factory reset on the Airport Extreme, but I'm sure I managed (by turning on with the pressed reset button) after several attempts. At least the extreme doesn't show signs of the old network, he has provided.

    When I try to set it up in the Airport utility, he wants only to create a new network. If I click on 'Other Options' and select 'Add to an existing network', the next screen is titled "This Airport Extreme will create a network" and prompts to enter a new network name and password. (Specifying the name of the network current generates an error because the network already exists, as I expect for the creation of a new network.)

    Any ideas on how to tweak this Airport Extreme by extending a network?

    TIA,

    Doug

    P.S. I have reviewed plugging extreme in one of the TWC router EtherNet ports and create its own WiFi network (with the advantage of adding support for 5 GHz), but the last time I tried I lost all connectivity; I'm afraid that the ISP network might protect against too broad network, although the glitch may have been a coincidence. If anyone has experience/ideas on this alternative configuration, I might be willing to try again.

    AirPort Extreme would not be able to connect using a wireless connection and to extend the wireless network of the ISP, but if you can connect the AirPort Extreme to the ISP using a permanent router, wired Ethernet cable, then AirPort Extreme could be used to provide broader coverage of wireless in this way signal.

  • How to put in place the new Airport Express to extend the current wireless WiFi U-Verse home network?

    Hello

    What are the steps for the creation of a new AIRPORT EXPRESS MC414LL/A Terminal so that it make that expand my network existing wireless, using my current AT & T UVerse equipment home.  Here are the details...

    Internet service provider: AT & T U-Verse

    Existing facilities: primary AT & T provided router/Modem: ARRIS NVG589 (reference 587234-004-00) that manages my house wired and wireless Wi - Fi.

    PROBLEM: Does not offer full Wi - Fi coverage

    SOLUTION: Attempt to add a new Terminal Airport Express so that it will extend coverage of the existing Wi - Fi network wireless.  I plan on the use of certain features such as streaming my content from iTunes to my sound, surround sound, etc Airport Express Library.

    NEW FEATURE: APPLE AIRPORT EXPRESS 802.11n Wi - Fi PART # MC414LL/A

    I wish I had AT & T equipment to continue to manage the Wi - Fi and network functionality (DNS, firewall, etc.), as it currently does.  However, I want to use the Airport Express to extend Wi - Fi coverage.  I already have a cable ethernet from the floor and the AT & T ARRIS NVG589.  I just need to know how to set up my new Apple Airport Express.

    Thank you!

    With the Express connected to Arris gateway with Ethernet, you have the basis for a roaming network.

    I would recommend that you run the AirPort Utility and allow it to run automatic installation of the Express. The utility should detect that the Express is connected by Ethernet and go through the steps to properly set up. Note: If you have made any changes to the Express since out of the box, I strongly suggest that you first perform a 'factory' reset on it to make sure that the installation went well.

  • can I use airport express to extend the range of my Airport time capsule

    I want my airport express (model 1382) to be subordinated to the time capsule (ver. 7.7.3) and I'm on a different network. Is this possible?

    Do not know what you mean by 'subordinate' here... and you do not specify if the AirPort Express terminal connects to the Capsule using a permanent, wired Ethernet cables... or... If you want to try to have the AirPort Express to connect wireless to the time Capsule.

    The method cable would be far superior to the method wireless in terms of performance and 'slide' on the Time Capsule wireless.

    You also did not indicate what device... a Mac, an iPhone / iPad, etc that you want to use to configure the AirPort Express Terminal.

  • How to test the signal strength of an Airport Express, which extends a network?

    I am trying to understand how my Airport Express is actually help to expand my network, and if I should move somewhere different. Any help would be appreciated!

    Current situation: my base station is an AirPort Extreme in our apartment computer room; for the internet, which is plugged into the wall. The wifi network is extended in the living room via an AirPort Express (version 7.6.4). There are on the same cabinet as the AirPort Express to Apple TV. The Airport Express has an optical cable connecting to a sound bar (which has an additional HDMI connection to the TV).

    I don't really know if the AirPort Express Terminal, he does something useful. The network is set to be extended, best I can tell: Airport Extreme network Mode is "Create a wireless network", and network Mode of the AirPort Express is "extend a wireless network. But still, the wifi on my iPad and iPhone signal strength seem to fall much in the living room. Apple TV usually broadcasts music from my desktop computer (in the computer room) well enough, but if I try to play music from my computer via the Apple Express at the soundbar, the connection is terrible and fall. (Which could be a problem with wifi, or could be an aging Airport Express question, could be a cable problem or might be a sound bar problem...)

    An example of what worries me: if I go to the Airport utility on my iPhone and a glance at the Airport Extreme, it has 4 Wireless, including Apple TV clients. But if I look at the AirPort Express, there sometimes a client wireless (iPhone), but never shows the Apple TV: even if the Apple TV is about 30 cm of the Airport Express. It's as if the 30cm distant to the Airport Express connection is weaker than the connection of two-rooms-distant Airport Extreme, but I am probably wrong that.

    In any case, is there a way to test what speed is through the AirPort Express, compared to through the extreme? I tried to use applications like CloudCheck on my iOS devices, but those only measure the speed of my network, and it is unclear whether or not he uses the Extreme or Express.

    Thanks in advance and all apologies if I used (almost inevitably) 'Express' when I should have used "Extreme", or vice versa, somewhere at the top.

    One way to see the strength of the signal is the Alt (option) key while clicking on the WiFi icon in the menu bar.

    But you see not directly related to the airport of arrival. Also the Airport utility does not give much information.

    You can see a lot more with the free app (Appstore) called "WiFi Scanner".

    The problem could be that the place you have chosen for the Airport Express can be better: it should be somewhere in halfway (in force) between the Real and where you sit with the iPad/iPhone.

  • I want to use a Terminal Airport Express to extend network provided by my Fios router/modem without going through another airport base.  Is there a way to do this?  I understand that Apple does not support this, but surely there must be a way to do this.

    Can someone tell me how to set up an Airport Express Terminal to expand Network provided by my Fios router/modem without going through an airport as a base?  I understand that apple does not support this use, but my applecare Advisor said it's possible.  Thank you!

    Unfortunately, your AppleCare Advisor is wrong if he or she has told you that an AirPort Express to extend wireless signal of a Fios router/modem.

    Function of "Extend a wireless network" Apple is an exclusive feature that was designed by Apple engineers to extend the signal from another wireless only router from Apple. Thus, the AirPort Express... or any other router Apple besides... would not be able to extend wireless a Fios network.

    SO... you have the possibility to locate the Airport Express where it is needed... And... Connect it to the Fios router/modem with a permanent, wired Ethernet cable connection, then the AirPort Express can 'extend' in this way.

    Or... If you are ready to add a second AirPort Express, connect the first near Fios modem/router with an Ethernet cable, then the second Airport Express could extend the signal first Express wireless.

    Another way to say the same thing, is that if you want an Apple AirPort router to extend wireless network... then you need two Apple routers to achieve this goal.

  • Do I need two devices of Airport express to extend my Comcast router/modem?

    Hi, can someone tell me if I need two devices Airport Express to extend the range of my wifi using a modem/router to Comcast?

    It all depends on "how" you want to extend the scope of the Comcast modem/router.

    IF... you can locate a single AirPort Express Terminal at the remote location where you need more coverage of wireless signal... And... connect the AirPort Express Terminal to the modem/router using a permanent wired Ethernet cable connection. ... THEN... the AirPort Express can be put in place to create a wireless network using the same wireless network name and password as the modem/router.  When you do this, then the modem/router and AirPort Express will act as a 'great' network with many more.

    IF... you can not run the Ethernet cable from the remote AirPort Express back to the modem/router and leave only it connected all the time, then your only other option would be to use two AirPort Express devices.  An express train would be located near the modem/router and connect using a short Ethernet cable. This Express will be set to 'create' a wireless network.

    The second AirPort Express Terminal can then be configured to "extend" a wireless network and wireless to repeat the signal from the first Express... assuming that the second Express is located where it can receive a strong signal first Express wireless.

  • Please let know us if it is practical to use Airport Extreme to extend the network wireless in a big house.

    I suspect that an original device connected to the modem cable... an intermediate device... and there should be a final device in a place further from the original device. I note that tech online article does talk to a wireless network using the 802.11ac signal. Would be grateful for advice on the feasibility of this. I currently have a Time Capsule, Airport Extreme connected my cable modem. I have a ~ 6 600 feet at home with the press on the 2nd story room and the other end of the House.

    You can use Airport Express to extend wireless created by an AEBS. If the AEBS is a model of turn then it supports 802.11ac, but most dishes are not. New the AEX take in charge 802.11ac, but it is of little use if the AEBS model is not.

  • 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.

  • Satellite Pro A40 fell on the wireless network card; Damaged PCMCIA slot

    This morning my Satellite Pro A40 (Celeron 2.6) fell 40 cm. He fell right on the wireless network card that has been inserted. This card is still alive and so is the rest of the laptop, but the PCMCIA location is little damaged. I can insert PC cards almost completely, just the last piece (when the pins are) wrong.

    I removed the cover near the CPU, and there, I could see the inside PCMCIA slot; I could see the main part and the last part where the pins are. That little part as is pushed upward, as you can see in the pictures.

    I think I'd be able to fix myself this PCMCIA slot, but I can't remove it. I removed all the screws on the rear plate, but he is still blocked.

    Pics:

    PCMCIA slot

    The PCMCIA location; on the left, you will see the part with the pins, which is pushed upward. It's also what I see when I look at the pins in the PCMCIA slot. as they are pushed down, but I don't think they are folded.

    Wireless network card; It is a little damaged but it still works.

    Does anyone have an idea how I can remove the back plate, or another way to remove the PCMCIA slot and fix it?

    Hi Steve

    Well, I can give t well you not answer how you can just remove the PCMCIA slot.
    There are a lot of screws and to my knowledge, it is necessary to remove all covers and screws that are placed at the bottom of the unit and inside under the keyboard.
    Please check this specific device. Perhaps you have overlooked a few screws.

    But if it is impossible to remove the PCMCIA slot of the unit, I recommend to ask the service partner for a detailed instruction.

  • Strangest thing: iPhones can't see the wireless network. Why not?

    Suddenly, an iPhone 5 and an iPhone 6 were not connected to the home network. I thought that the wireless router was to have a hiccup. Reset it and still no. Control a connected computer and internet. Thought that it was a wireless problem, but check the settings (I don't mess with) and they are fine. BUT, I realized my iPad is always connected to the network. IPhones don't even see the wireless network. SSID always broadcast on. I tried to enter the SSID and password manually, but iPhones say that the network does not exist. It's the strangest thing. What would make the invisible network for phones all of a sudden? Both phones are differnet OS running. One is the latest version, probably the previous version. It's a FiOS Actiontec router/router wireless. Everyone has heard of such a thing? I do not understand how it is possible...

    Try this on an iPhone. No matter which even with other iOS.

    You will need to enter the password for Wi - Fi.

  • ProBook 4520 s - exchange of the wireless network card

    Hello everyone.

    I think the exchange of the wireless network card in my Probook 4520 s, due to the low flow.
    So I searched for a while a 5 Ghz supporting the card and found out that I am only able to get in the "white" cards list working. Then I looked at this page:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?lang=en & CC = US & objectid = c02487851 & jumpi...

    These cards can be any, that have been used in 4520 s. Mine (according to the Device Manager) is the Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n. This thing only supports 2.4 Ghz. Now, I looked at the list for a 5 Ghz supporting the card. I think that the 802.11A/B/G/N WLAN Intel HMC 572520-001 minicards can operate on 5 Ghz, because I read, that A appears only with maps of 2.4/5 Ghz. I read too, that maps of 2.4 / 5 GHz have 3 antennas, but on this card I only the slots for 2. Is this good? And this card would go into my 4520 s?

    Greetings,

    Colony

    Hi, colony:

    You are right about your statement about the cards being described as A/B/G/N dual-band.

    The best thing to do is look at Chapter 3 of your service manual.

    You can only order one of the cards listed as supported and it MUST have the HP reference on it or it won't work.

    I see only two possibilities for you...

    The 6200 Intel and Broadcom 4322.  Make sure you also get the part # that corresponds to what country you live.

    If your current Broadcom card has integrated Bluetooth, you will lose your Bluetooth capability if you order an integrated HP bluetooth module and probably the cable too.

    None of the dual-band cards have embedded bluetooth.

    Link to the service manual.

    http://bizsupport1.Austin.HP.com/BC/docs/support/SupportManual/c02439213/c02439213.PDF

    Then, you can order a card on the link below.

    If you do not live in the United States, you can change your country at the top of the page to yours.
