• can a wifi with an airport extreme network be extended with two Airport express wireless?

  I have developed successfully the range of my wifi network by connecting an older brick of Airport express to a new airport extreme. Unfortunately, there is a room more than I would like to achieve, so I'm trying to add a second (newer) to bring in this room to get full coverage. When I try to set up in the airport utility it hits an "unexpected error" message continually or breaks down the network. should I change in the settings? the express environment be on something else (like a relay?) in order to allow the new express to join the network? I have reset the factory default final express and tried to let the wizard implemented to extend my existing network.

  I understand that I will sacrifice speed, but there is no way to connect them at the present time. worst case, I should better results if I break through the floor and the extreme of wire in the Middle express?

  Thank you

  Sorry, but Apple will allow you only to wireless "extend" the network once, not two.

  In other words, just about any device that "extends" the network must connect directly to the 'main' router... not to another router that is already expanding the network.

  Another way of saying the same thing... both your need for extensions at about the same distance from the 'main' router and two extensions should be closer to the main router they are to each other.

  You want to continue trying to implement the 2nd AirPort Express Terminal?

  "I should better results if I break through the floor and the extreme of wire in the Middle express?

  
  

  Yes, that would allow you to do what you want, assuming that the 'remote' Express can pick up a good signal of the Middle Express wireless.
  

• 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.

• What is the right way to extend a network with two stations 80211ac wireless fixed extreme apple via ethernet?

  I my house wired with ethernet and have logged as many devices via cat5e as possible. My problem is when I try to connect together the two apple airport extreme base stations and use the second to extend my network I lose the internet connection.  I am able to extend without problems via radio, but since I plugged in the House tried to take advantage of the fastest method by cable.

  Here's my network setup in a nut shell.

  In the basement, I have my router from Verizon Fios (gateway 80211n) currently configured to provide all the space an Ip address via dhcp (disabled wireless)

  Gigabit ethernet port 8 wired via gigabit switch through the cable between the bridge Fios and port 1 of the switch.

  .. . Network is set to extend a wireless network

  Given that all routers are interconnected by Ethernet, you don't want to configure AirPort Extreme to "Extend a wireless network." This option should be used only if the connection between the wireless base stations. Instead, the two base stations must be configured to "create a wireless network.  This is because that, with them all connected by Ethernet, you have the basis for a network of mobile type.

  With this type of network, each router will broadcast their own Wi - Fi network, but because they will all use the same network name (SSID) and use the same type of wireless security and the password, all the wireless clients will see them as network «one»

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

  I have Airport express 802.11n and can not make it appear in Airport utility.

  Which version of AirPort Utility?   If you are not sure, open AirPort Utility and click on the menu of AirPort Utility in the upper left of the screen. Then click on the utility AirPort post back with the version number that you see there.

  Is the Terminal AirPort Express 802.11n have an Ethernet port, or both?

  Is the existing WiFi provided by another Apple AirPort router?

  You try to get the AirPort Express to connect to the network using a Wi - Fi?... or... the AirPort Express will connect using wired Ethernet wired, permanent access to the existing wireless router?

• Can not update the settings on the Airport Express

  Currently have a facility - two extremes and an Express network.  I for the life of me can't update the Express settings. I always get an error message but I can update the settings on the two extremes very well. I can make changes to the Express with my Iphone but I can't with my Imac.  I want to activate the function of 5 GHz but I can't do that via my Iphone - with the desktop app I think.  Can someone help me?

  Let's first check and make sure that on which Airport Express version you have.

  Your version of the AirPort Express is there only 1 or 2 Ethernet ports?

  The Express to connect to your network and extend it wireless?  Alternatively, the Express connects to one of the extremes airport using a wired Ethernet cable connection.

  Then, I would be not too concerned of not being able to 'see' the Express of the iMac as long as you can access the settings of the iPhone. You can make almost any change using the iPhone you can use a Mac.

• Can I connect a switch to my Airport Express 1st gen?

  Hi Experts,

  I was wondering if I'll be able to connect a switch 8 ports to the ethernet port on my AirPort Express?

  My current setup is the D-Link router/Modem > airport Time Capsule <> AirPort Express

  So I've matched the AirPort Express to the Capsule to expand my network.

  FYI: AirPort Express is 1st Gen model.

  Thank you.

  Tony

  If you really have a 1st version of the AirPort Express Gen (see note below *)... and you have configured to connect to the time Capsule using Wireless 'add a wireless network', then the Ethernet port is active and you can connect a switch to the Express.

  Don't forget that the Ethernet on the Express port is only 100 Mbit/s capable, so even if you could have a 1 000 Mbps or Gigabit switch, the speed will never be higher than 100 Mbit / s.

  * A 1st Gen Express is A1264 model number. Look on the side of the Express to locate the model number. Hard to see, with grey lettering on white background.

• I can't create a network with MyRIO

  Hey guys,.

  I have a 1900 MyRIO and I want to create a network, but I don't have this option as you can see in the picture.

  

  I can only choose between: 'disable' and 'connect with the wifi network. On the second picture (which is fixed), you can see my software installed on MyRIO.

  Maybe you guys can give me a clue what I need to change to be able to create a network

  When I installed initially the new router today, I installed it with WPA - PSK [TKIP] + security WPA2-PSK [AES] option. When in doing so, the Vista Home Premium (32 bit) would not connect to the internet. He would show local only access.

  But when I disable security it can connect to the internet. Rest of my devices are also able to connect to the internet regardless of WPA - PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] or security number. I am running Vista with SP2.  That seems known problem Vista on Sp1. see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935222.

• Adding multiple Airport Express to a router/network Apple no?

  Hi all

  You are looking for assistance.

  Until yesterday, I had an Internet ADSL connection and home network WiFi connection that consisted of a base no routing modem, connected to a time Capsule. The extended wireless network had 3 Airport Express connected.

  My ISP (TPG in Australia) past my ADSL to the new NBN yesterday and have sent me a new HUAWEI Modem/wireless router. That's why I need is no longer my Time Capsule for routing.

  My question is now; Can I connect my A-Express to the router not Apple to create a large network similar to what I had before? I did a little reading and apparently not!

  Thanks in advance.

  Can I connect my A-Express to the router not Apple to create a large network similar to what I had before?

  Sorry, but no.  Feature of "extend" Apple owns. The Express devices can only wireless "extend" the signal from another router from Apple.

  You can still use the time Capsule to provide a network... wireless signal and the expresses may 'extend '.

  You could use the wireless of the Huawei product for "guest", or disable wireless on the device if you do not need two wireless networks.

• 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.

• Extend my cable modem network via Airport express and Time Capsule

  I am trying to expand my home network through my Airport express AND a Time Capsule. Installation of extension through the airport was easy and successful. I then tried to expand further with Time Capsule, but it gives me the opportunity to launch a new network. What do different to fix my Tim Capsule to my global network?

  I then tried to expand further with Time Capsule

  Unfortunately, it is not possible to do what you want... given that the function of "extend a wireless network" Apple will not accept to be extended once the network is not two.

  The other question that you probably, it is that unless your 'main' router is also another router from Apple, the Express is not really 'extension' of the network at all, despite what you think.  More likely, the Express is "membership" in the network. It can be used to connect a USB printer remote in this environment or for use with AirPlay... but the Express doesn't "spread" or "repeat" when he joined the network.

  If you want to check if the Express is really extend the network, and you have a Mac laptop... after back and provide you with a few steps.

  But even if the Express could be the extension of the network... Time Capsule will have to connect to the network using a permanent, wired cables Ethernet... ideally to your main router, but it might work OK if you connect to the Express.

• Can't get the Time Capsule network to see Airport Extreme?

  I have a network set up through my Time Capsule and I want to express with my Airport Extreme, the problem is that I can't get the network to see Airport Extreme - or rather, we'll see, but when I try to connect to it, it starts to connect, and then I get an unexpected error. I tried to restore both their factory settings and did a restore forced several times to the Airport Extreme, but nothing helped. I made sure to affect my IPv6 link-local only, I've even re-created my network several times (always with the Capsule of time as the main base station, but nothing seems working.

  Any ideas would be very useful.

  The Airport Extreme and time Capsule have been purchased during the last month, and I'm under OS10.11.1

  First of all, try to update your software El Capitan to the current version of operation... 10.11.4... which was supposed to solve some of the bugs that cause the message "unexpected error".

  If still no help, try using an iPhone or an iPad for the configuration.  After the back if you don't know how to proceed.

• Airport express - is no longer the network extension

  For six years, took the extreme of the airport, with two Airport express network expanded throughout the House provision.

  All are online and update - 7.6.7 is later / current version.

  Airport express kitchen spent all-day orange with the warning - "unable to extend the... wireless network." "flashing

  I tried to restart - power off/power on, then a reboot via Airport utility.

  Then I completely reset the device to factory settings and reconfigured back to expand network through the Airport on Mac utility.

  I still have the same problem!

  Tried to contact Apple support, telephone support is obviously expired but still difficult to write, call, or buy an extended support, I am stuck in a loop with: "we're sorry. We are unable to respond to your request at this time. Please try again or come back later.15696390-8f63-4da2-816e-f58a820d350d'

  Would appreciate some advice from the community? Could avoid resetting the Airport Extreme that I didn't have to go to the length of the reconfiguration of the entire home network and services... !

  Thanks in advance.

  Powering two devices of the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express

  Wait a minute

  Turn on the AirPort Extreme and run a full minute

  Then, turn on the kitchen Express and run a full minute

  Check the network

  If no luck, repeat the same procedure as above, but perform a hard reset on the Express before attempting to set up again

  If still no luck, the age of the Express can come into play. The average useful life of the Express is about 3-4 years.

  Try the 'other' Express in the kitchen. If it works, then you know that your "old" kitchen Express must be replaced.
