Can I downgrade firmware AirPort Express to 7.6.4 to 7.6.1?

I have an AirPort Express 802.11n, 2nd generation, with the firmware 7.6.4. I was unable to get a Chromecast to connect to him - there seems to be a known problem with the connection to any firmware version 7.6.1. With the help of the utility AirPort 6.3.6 if I option click on the version of the firmware for the router and get the choice of the downgrading of firmware 7.6.3 but nothing earlier. The 'other' option one opens 'my documents' dialog, but if there is a version of previous firmware stored somewhere on my Mac, I don't know where to find. Grateful for any help.

If you have purchased the Express with 7.6.4 firmware can not be downgraded. Downgrades Apple blocked... and 7.6.3 is poor so stick to what you have.

I think that problems with Chromecast on 7.6.3 and 7.6.4 are more to do with an extreme as the express... However if she refuses to work... Be smart...

Apple created their network for apple devices... so use your Apple TV not a chromecast.

OR

Buy a cheap as wireless router of the low-end N TP-Link Wireless (or other Chinese brand) chips... Connect all wireless router is the main router of the network and use as WAP for the Chromecast... you'll have a lot less questions to stick to Non-Apple wireless equipment when you use streamers not apple.

  • How can I set Up Airport Express with an existing router/modem from the ISP

    I have a wireless modem/router ISP and I want to get the ability to use Air Print using a non-Airprint but the USB printer. I suggest you to connect the printer to the Airport Express A1392 Epson) via a USB port to enable the AirPrint features.  However, I guess the Airport Express must be an ethernet to the modem/router ISP connection and then use the Epxress airport more convenient than my wireless router.

    1. do I need to turn off the function the ISP router's wireless when I plugged as stated above? So I wait.

    2. as the Airport Express only has one ethernet port I assume that I can connect my other ethernet connections using a hub 4 ports connected to the Airport Express Terminal.  It will be always possible to use other ports ethernet on the modem/router ISP as well?

    Doug

    I have a wireless modem/router ISP and I want to get the ability to use Air Print using a non-Airprint but the USB printer.

    You may have received incorrect information, because a non-AirPrint on the USB port on an AirPort Express Terminal... or any other router from Apple also printer... do not make the AirPrint-compatible printer.

    You want to continue nevertheless to check that this is true?

    The AirPort Express can connect to the network wireless router using a wireless connection... or... it can connect to one of the router's Ethernet ports using a wired Ethernet connection.

    Wired connections are always preferable wireless if possible for your Express.  Turn off the wireless router is not necessary if you want to connect to the Express using an Ethernet connection.

  • 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.

  • Setup Airport Express: how to manually set the IP address and DNS?

    I just bought an Airport Express for the wifi in the ethernet cable that I have in my dorm room.

    To connect to the internet via the ethernet cable, I need to enter a number IP, DNS, gateway and mask provided by the dorm (as I did on my Macbook).

    The problem is that I don't see where I can do for the Airport Express. After I plugged the cable into it, it keeps wanting to configuration alone, which does not work (he's trying to "join the network" forever, without success).

    Yes, you can, assuming that the AirPort Express is set up to create a wireless network. This means that it must connect to your router wirelessly existing using wired Ethernet fixed, permanent and be configured to use the same wireless network name and password as your 'main' network

  • Problems of Airport Express

    Hi, can someone tell me if a former airport express type (model A1088) will work or set up with Yosemite. I tried to use Airport utility to configure it but can't get the Airport utility to find. I tried with the direct BT hub ethernet cable and base station Airport extreme with no effect. It is not compatible or is the defective unit, it flashes just constantly sometimes orange or green. Tried soft reset and hard or factory reset.

    I hope someone can help. At soon Mick 571

    Unfortunately, Apple has dropped support for older models of airport as the Airport Express (A1084) and AirPort Extreme (A1034) when they introduced the Lion (10.7.x) operating system 3-4 years ago.

    If you... or you can borrow for a few minutes... a Mac equipped with an older operating system such as Leopard (10.5.x) or Snow Leopard (10.6.x), you can administer the old AirPort Express this way.  A PC with AirPort Utility for Windows installed on the device would probably work as well.

    There are also "hacks" on the Internet that supposedly will install the old airport on a more recent Mac software, but you will need to use an application from an unknown author... who will offer no support in case of problems... .and also be willing to change some of the settings of the default security on your Mac to install the software. We do not recommend that you consider something like that, but it's your decision.

  • How to set up AirPort Express as a receiver only?

    My Wi - Fi Terminal is a tower of ac AirPort Extreme. I use my old AirPort Express only n to provide the Internet connection for my TV. All he needs to do is to receive the signal Wi - Fi base station.

    When I check the Wi - Fi traffic, however, it seems that the AirPort Express is also a signal. What makes a 'bridge', I think that the term. It is all set with a password, is not a security problem. It's just a problem of congestion network, which is quite a significant potential problem living in a high-rise building.

    I apologize in advance, but my lock of knowledge and understanding of terminology related to all things 'network '. How can I configure the AirPort Express Terminal to it only "receives" the Wi - Fi signal and does not broadcast the ' ' anything?

    Be gentle

    Thank you

    [This is a restatement of the question asked by another user here How to stop my broadcasting extreme airport ]

    Your question is quite clear to me. You do not want the Express to broadcast anything, but it should provide an internet connection for the TV? This is not possible: internet connections are always a two-way binding. Probably the best solution would be to use the Express in client mode.

  • 12.3.3.17 iTunes could not connect to devices AirPlay (Airport Express)

    After the update to iTunes 12.3.3.17 I can connect is more to Apple Airport Express.

    I updated iTunes to 12.3.3.17 on both computers:

    1. Windows 7 64-bit SP1 / iTunes 12.3.3.17 64-bit

    2 Windows 10 64 - bit / iTunes 12.3.3.17 64-bit

    On the Windows 10 computer, iTunes can connect and play all three Airport Express.  An iPod Touch can also flow to each of them.

    After the upgrade to 12.3.3.17 on the Windows 7 SP1 computer, iTunes can see all three Airport Express and they are not greyed out.  But when an any of them are selected in the dialog of speaker, iTunes tries to connect and after 30 seconds results in the error "an error occurred when connecting to the device AirPlay"xxx". The network connection timed out' and the selection is then grayed out.

    The network card on this PC, the router, and all three Airport Express everything seems to work properly as I can deliver on all of them using software third 'wing' with other applications as the source.  I can also control iTunes on the PC wirelessly from iPod with the Remote app.

    I just can no longer spread to one of the Express from the airport directly from iTunes after the 12.3.3.17 update.

    Any thoughts?

    Well, problem solved (mostly) by a lot of trial and error and it turns out be a problem of WF on the UDP ports must be open for Hello.  It was a bit of a surprise, because the Airfoil program (third party utility AirPlay) uses also Hello (that works).

    The Windows Firewall has a rule entry of inbound traffic for Hello to port 5353 UDP.  Changing the rule to allow all Ports (UDP) does the job.  So I studied what UDP ports were actually necessary for the Hello and Airplay and amended the rule again, this time replacing all Ports with these specific UDP port numbers: 554 (1900), 5289 5298, 5350, 5351, 5353, 49159, 49163

    However, that did not yet work so I ended up coming back to the all Ports configuration.

    If someone uses the firewall native Windows (preferably Windows 7, but probably the same for 8 and 10), I would be interested to know what UDP ports allows your Windows Hello firewall.

    Control Panel > Windows Firewall > advanced settings > inbound rules > Hello

    I had certainly not changed firewall settings before this update to iTunes (and AirPlay worked just hours before) and know not why the update seems to have changed the Windows Firewall settings, but that helps to explain why the Windows 10 computer worked fine after the update, because she was using the McAfee Security Suite firewall.

  • Can I connect my Airport Extreme base station via an ethernet cable to a counter of locus?

    Can I use my Airport Express (802.11n Wi - Fi) to connect with an ethernet cable, a locus counter that is used with a solar panel inverter?  Currently I use the hotspot to connect two different Mac computers and an Ipad.  Sungevity, Setup, told me that the signal must go in a direction of my locus meter satellite modem.  Sungevity also told me that if I can hard wire any device (such as a computer) directly from my Airport, I should also be able to do the same with the meter of locus.  Has anyone tried this before?

    Thank you.

    What is the AirPort Express you have?

    As you test, turn off the WiFi on a computer and then connect the computer to the local network <-->port on the AirPort Express using an Ethernet cable to see if the computer can get a good connection Internet in this way?

    If he CAN... and if the people of support for your solar panels have provided the correct information... then the meter will work.

  • Airport Express 5 GHz network speed

    Hello

    I have a 200 Mbps service, obviously connected via Ethernet, the ISP told me that their modem was not argued that the wireless speed, they suggested me to purchase an Airport Express station (I did), I'm not having that speed yet, they told me that maybe it was because the Airport Express Terminal was not connected via a CAT6 cable (which perhaps it is true because it was an old cable LAN) , but read a lot of discussion, I fear I won't get it this speed even with a CAT6 cable, I can't return my Airport Express (Mexico political Service suck) and get an Airport Extreme, then:

    I'm preparing here? I can't 200Mbps wireless with an Airport Express Terminal? What you suggest me to do? (Purchase am than airport Extreme is not an option right now $$$)

    Sorry, but it's not really important that you use CAT5 or CAT6 wiring as the Ethernet on the AirPort Express ports are limited to 100 Mbps. You never reach 200 Mbit/s that your ISP provides to you. The AirPort Extreme, has on the other hand, all Ethernet 1 Gbps ports.
