How to extend the Airport Express Wireless Network at guesthouse?

Currently have an Airport Express (fairly new, updated). Centrally located in my house.

I have a guest house which has a garage and a front door door aside.

Guest House is about 56 feet from the main house.

I can get the wifi outside, (4 bars) up to 3 feet of the guesthouse before he gets spotty or the connection is lost.

If I go into the Guest House, I see the other neighbors networks, but not my own. (Signals strong, 4 bars).

My question is: How can I extend the range of my network wireless in my guest house? If I need another Terminal Airport Express?

Where would he put regarding my 1st Express?

I would appreciate comments, thank you.

As a first step, it may be good idea to test the different locations of the existing base station. Temporarily connect an Ethernet for inbound Internet cable. Try moving the base station to various locations. Avoid stray objects/structures (Wi - Fi and Bluetooth: potential sources of interference wireless - Apple Support).

If necessary, an extension of the network (Wi - Fi base stations: extend the reach of your network wireless by adding additional base stations Wi - Fi - Apple Suppo...) are possible. The best way to do it would be through an Ethernet connection to the extended base station (placed in the main, if possible). Alternatively, you can test whether a link of powerline network adapter could be used instead of an Ethernet cable to the extended base station.

  • Impossible to extend the AirPort Extreme wireless network

    I have a wireless network set up with a time Capsule airport 4th generation.  I'm trying to take my old AirPort Extreme wireless 3rd generation. I have double. Kettle has implemented, but I get the status message on the extreme that it cannot extend the network.  I can get a strong signal on my iPhone from the point that I have placed extreme itching so I'm close enough to the time Capsule.

    Could I use a connection by current bearer through my home wiring to the extreme and extend it like that?

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Please follow these steps closely and report on your results.

    Power off time Capsule airport.

    Wait 10 to 15 seconds

    Power up Time Capsule airport

    Reset the AirPort Extreme back to default factory

    Set up AirPort Extreme still extend wireless signal of the time Capsule

  • How to connect the Airport express as an Extender for airport extreme to El Capitan

    I have a model extreme A1521 airport and a model express airport A1392 and upgraded my OS to El Capitan. I want to use the express as an Extender for the extreme because my old House is long and has thick walls. My problem is that Airport utility will not 'see' the express, regardless of its proximity to the main router (extreme). I tried to move and reset.

    Of course, as soon as I get the utility to see, I need instructions on how to configure the express as a booster for my extreme.

    Any ideas?

    Unplug the Express and put it in the same room as the AirPort Extreme.

    Put power on the Express for a few minutes, then hold down the reset button on the back of the Express for 7 to 8 seconds and release.

    Allow a minute for the Express to restart

    Click the WiFI icon at the top of the screen of the Mac

    Look for an announcement of the new AirPort base station

    Click directly on the AirPort Express Terminal

    When you click on AirPort Express, the "Wizard" will open and take a few seconds to analyze things, and then see a screen that looks like the figure below, except that you can see your cameras.

    Type a short and simple name that you want to call the Express

    Click next

    The installation wizard will take care of everything for you

    When you see the message Setup is complete, unplug the Express and move to halfway between the AirPort Extreme and the area of the House that needs more coverage of wireless signal

    Turn on the Express and you're all set

    Important note... the Express to expand the quality of the signal it receives. About half of the potential speed on the entire nextwork is lost when you extend using a wireless connection between the airports.

    It would be much better if you could connect the Express to the extreme by using wired Ethernet wired, permanent, since there is no loss of signal via the Ethernet cable and there is always a lot of loss of signal through the air, the (thick walls especially) walls, ceilings, etc.

  • How fast is the Atheros AR5007EG wireless network adapter?

    I have an Atheros AR5007EG wireless network adapter in my computer. For six months, we have Broadbank 100Mbit/s in our House. When I call the support (support of the broadband company) they ask me to check if my computer can handle it. How can I check that?

    I think the Atheros AR5007EG is a 802. 11 b / g device. Which would have a maximum speed of 54 Mbps.

    For 100 Mbps, you need a Wireless N - 802.11n device.

  • 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

    David

    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.

  • Is it possible to use the AirPort Express to AirPlay only? (Wireless)

    Hello

    I have a speaker and I would empower AirPlay for it. I have an old airport express here in my house and I wanted to plug my express from the airport to my wireless network and allow the airplay.

    The only thing I don't want to not remove is the possibility to extend the wireless network, because I'm pretty sure it will do more bad then good, since I was a big of AC very close to the speaker wireless router. (http://www.asus.com/us/Networking/RT-AC5300)

    Is it possible to use the Airport express only airplay? Without trying to extend my network?

    Thanks in advance!

    Kind regards

    Tiago

    Yes, if you have the main router near the speakers... then simply plug the Express into the enclosure of the ethernet... Run it in Bridge mode and turn off wireless... Then check if you can find it in iTunes etc to send the stream of airtime.

    Or you can configure it to join a wireless network... it will not extend... Apple call it client mode.

  • Network error extend w / Airport Express (7.6.7)

    I see on various discussion forums that there is a problem with the firmware 7.6.7 for Airport Express, it generates an error when you try to select the device to extend a network rather than join it. Currently mine is set up for these, and I can't change it to extend the network instead. Again, forums, I have read it seems to be a bug in the firmware 7.6.7.

    I tried downgrading the firmware to one of older versions who apparently always worked to expand a network (7.6.1 and 7.6.3) but they cannot be installed on my device as it comes with 7.6.7. Any advice? Anyone else see this problem?

    The Airport Express will be only "extend" a wireless network is provided by another Apple AirPort router.  We will make sure that your 'main' router is an Apple product and confirm on what model of airport number you may have.
