• I have Airport extreme, but need more coverage... is there a solution?

  I have Airport Extreme and need coverage more wide/more strong... it's available somehow?

  Ideally, the AirPort Extreme should be located in the center of your home, so the distance that a wireless signal has to travel to reach the outer parts of the House would be roughly equal.

  AirPort Extreme is set to broadcast 100% of power, so the only way that you will be able to increase the range of the signal is to add one or more airports to "extend" the wireless network.

• Extend an AirPort Extreme with a Terminal AirPort Express increasing the number of users?

  I have an AirPort Extreme 2 years ago. Based on the technical page of the product, the router can theoretically connect up to 50 users. That's more than enough if used at home.

  However, I intend to deploy a network of airports in our new office building and we have more or less 50 employees. Because everyone has a smartphone that it needs to connect, I try to at least 100 users/devices. Which includes all the network printers. Obviously, an AirPort Extreme is not enough. Another thing, I have considered is that the office building is 2 floors and all the walls are made of concrete, which means the distribution of the wifi signals is affected.

  I thought to extend an AirPort extreme with 3 more AirPort Expressare (mobile network). It's 2 APs on each floor. That should solve the problem of distribution wifi. I'm not sure the first problem - 100 or more devices into a single network.

  So extending an AirPort Extreme with 3 more AirPort Expressare (making a roaming network with 4 access points) increases the number of potential users of 50 to 200 (assuming that each access point can connect to 50 users)?

  In theory, Yes.  But you must take this specification of 50 users with a grain of salt.  Once there are 20-25 users on the same airport access point, things will slow down significantly. The system will operate as of cold molasses with up to 50 users on the same access point.

  Quite frankly, in a business application, you need a software router. Apple routers are designed for home use.

  Another way to say the same thing, is that Apple does not routers Apple at the Apple Store. Who could tell more than anything whatsoever about the suitability of the products in your proposed network.

  My advice would be to get an IT professional in and review your needs... before you move further.

• I desperately need help until my extended family of Apple Airport. Any network of experts

  So I'm an extremely loyal apple fan. I pretty much shoot a whole bunch of products for the wireless extend the range of my internet network in the House. I just actually recently bought an Apple 2 TB Time Capsule ("Tall" tower as a) aka (ATCMain) to add to my current crop of Apple routers: year Apple 2 TB Time Capsule (the big one "Flat") aka (ATCExtend) and 3 Apple Express (AE1, AE2, AE3).

  My problem is that I often have a problem with the connection, as the disconnection of the internet. To fix this, I normally go to Airport utility and change the radio of ATCMain signal (channel 11 to 1 or vice versa) or I would go to the internet tab and switch between static and DHCP then back to DHCP click on renew DHCP then update and voila the question goes - for now... Well, it got to a point where it is just ridiculous how I need to keep doing this on a very regular basis, normally I get flack from my cause of family members, I 'insisted' on getting Apple products. So my question is how do I solve this problem.

  As a solution, a few days ago, I bought ATCMain to take the place of ATCExtend. And a little solved 1 problem yet still retained another problem. Here's how the implementation looks like.

  

  Essentially, hand connect with everything except that AE3 or printer wireless Airport Express is in Mode Client for my Epson printer.

  This has solved the problem of switch me between different Radio channels, I guess that maybe since the two time Capsules have a range more wide an Airport Express Terminal, they are better able to maintain a link between them, solid extending wireless without fault.

  HOWEVER, the problem of the power of the internet is still there.

  My plan is now really invest on just getting the sons of the ATCMain ETHERNET to ATCExtend as well as AE1 (JHWS ROOM Airport Express) while I offer wireless lounge Airport Express or AE2. The Airport Express or AE3 printer will remain the same while we might add 1 more Airport Express and set a cable ethernet to the Airport Express at ATCMain.

  Thus, the question are the following:

  1. I have to reset everything right from the start and start from scratch when I add the Ethernet cables?

  2 should. what settings I change if I Ethernet running?

  3 - is a more reliable method of extending the network to a wireless extension?

  4 everyone here would be able to provide an organization chart on the process to be undertaken?

  1. I have to reset everything right from the start and start from scratch when I add the Ethernet cables?

  Yes, it's totally different configuration.

  A reset will not delete files on a hard drive of just TC configuration on the router.

  You must configure each connected ethernet device properly so that it will be using the bridge to the main router... which I assume is the main ATC. And he must create a wireless network... Use the same name and the same password for all units... I would also recommend for now, you stand for auto wireless channels.

  2 should. what settings I change if I Ethernet running?

  I said for the most part already.

  Airport in the latest Mac OS utility is smart to understand... so long that you start in the order... and make sure the ATV hand configuration is correct, the rest should be pretty much exactly right. If you encounter problems after the screenshots... It is easier for us hard to see real numbers.

  However I don't say all the names, it is short without space and pure alphanumeric. All the passwords are only 8-20 cases of characters and numbers.

  Since Apple is now dependent on SMB network protocol, it is best to stick to the rules.

  3 - is a more reliable method of extending the network to a wireless extension?

  Ethernet is 100000000% higher wireless... This is the ONLY reliable and trustworthy connection method.

  We all try to get wireless... after a while you learn that it is full of gremlins and voodoo... He failed miserably in any network with streaming... to transfer regular data that it might work but as soon as you get in the media... Forget it.

  4 everyone here would be able to provide an organization chart on the process to be undertaken?

  Reset all airports factory.

  Main airport of installation... Do not use recommended Apple names... call him MainATC and call its ATCwifi wireless (for example)

  Set a proper password according to the rules above... a simple sentence of your last film interest.

  Make sure that it is functional and reliable.

  Plug the second TC... Run the installer...

  Change the name to something suitable... Not recommended Apple name.

  It should automatically discover it is the configuration via ethernet to the MainATC and select bridge on wire. If this isn't the case, we can change it later.

  Verify that it works correctly.

  Plug the first express.

  Change the name to something suitable... Not recommended Apple name.

  It should automatically discover it is the configuration via ethernet to the MainATC and select bridge on wire. If this isn't the case, we can change it later.

  Etc.

  When you do the wireless device that will be very good... Place near the airport nearest you, and run the Setup program to extend wireless.

  Make your client mode device to connect to a printer.

  Post screenshots of everyone who gives.

• Can I add a 2nd or 3rd wifi extender to my router?

  I have the old Airport Extreme as my main router and an Airport Express station as my wifi Wireless extender. I want to add another wireless Extender in another part of my house. Is this possible? Extenders of different companies work with my Apple products like the Netgear N300 Wireless Range Extender model EX2700.

  Where can I find detailed instructions on creating a NEW Airport router (as if I never had a notch upward for the first time. I might decide to start over with a more recent version) and then add wifi wireless Extender?

  Also, if I buy the last Airport router to hard wire from my computer, can I use the older Airport extreme and Airport express as Extender?

  If you do not replace the router by, say, a Netgear router, you cannot use the desired third-party Extenders. You're better off with more Airport Express to extend your network compatible with the Airport Extreme router.

• Using a Mac as a media server

  I would use a Mac Mini as the entrance to multimedia server of my sound system.

  I need to make the Mac Mini iTunes DLNA server that can connect to the device that acquires different sources and distributes the sound for different areas of households and their wired speakers.

  Did someone familiar with the different DLNA servers available?

  I ripped my CD collection in MP3s a while back so I could listen to them on mobile devices, especially in the car.  But I would be re-rip them in WAV or AIFF to produce quality music CD to the home entertainment system.  So I would like to ensure that the DLNA server is not only reliable, but high enough quality that I wouldn't have problems streaming music in real time and without abandonment or loss.

  I'd be happy to expertise and recommendations in this area.

  Thank you.

  Some DLNA aka software. UPnP software includes the ability to "transcode" files video or audio from one format to another. So if you have a mix of DLNA clients that does support all the same format, it can convert the files for those in need. You can take this into consideration when choosing a package DNLA for your Mac.

  Before I get to DLNA, I would say that the DNLA is old, poorly supported, behaved badly and I advise you if possible to avoid. There are other approaches that you can choose from are better for you but if not, then go to the answers below DNLA.

  First of all, the other non-DNLA approach. To do the audio multi-room, the Prime Minister is to buy a Sonos system. With this you buy either pregnant Sonos e.g. Play: 3 or you buy a Sonos Connect which allows you to connect an existing amplifier. Sonos supports all audio formats supported by iTunes, including Apple Lossless, that will be the best format to use if possible. While Sonos is the market leader there are other brands offer similar solutions. Other systems similar to Sonos examples of Logitech Squeezebox, Roku SoundBridge (interrupted), an Apple TV3 or TV4, etc.. All these support Apple Lossless and all different rooms playing different titles at the same time.

  A second approach is to use the standard Apple's AirPlay, many AV receivers now support AirPlay if you have a network interface on your AV receiver which these days is standard or an option on most. iTunes would then broadcast directly to the AV receiver using the standard of airtime.

  A third similar approach is to get one or more AirPort Express WiFi-base stations, they have an audio connector, you AirPlay from iTunes to the AirPort Express and it outputs via its audio connector of the connected audio equipment that could be pregnant or audio/video receiver.

  Now there is a limitation with AirPlay, only iTunes can only produce airplay the same content to one or more destinations AirPlay, if you want to play several different songs at the same time, so that's where the Sonos and similar solutions win. The iTunes can however be a Mac, or Windows, or an iPhone or an iPad.

  Go to the DLNA. You'll probably find many DNLA for Mac servers are abandoned or semi abandoned in that they have not had a recent update and so may have problems with versions of Mac OS X or only work with certain customers or do not transcode well or at all. In other words like DLNA as a whole, it is rather a mess. You will find that you have to buy a package commercial DNLA although it will always be cheaper that buying a Sonos multi-room installation. I advise to test trial versions, be sure to remove each before trying the next.

  With no particular feeling, take a look at the following.

• From iOS10, no airtime more with airport don't express

  Hello

  I downloaded iOS10 yesterday on an iPhone SE.

  Everything is ok except that I can not connect to airport express airplay. However, I can connect to Apple TV airplay. I tried to restart Airport express (no upgrade available, I use version 7.6.7), iPhone and still no icon to connect to the Airport express.

  With my macbook pro 13 "retina, there is no problem, I can see the two broadcasts, and they work perfectly.

  No idea what I can do?

  Thanks in advance,

  Sharlo

  I found the solution on the web...

  you need to drag to the right - menu music - and then only you can choose express airport AirPlay.

  It's great... Why make it simple if you can do more complicated.

  See you soon

  Sharlo

• Hello! My AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g) lights no more. I think he lost his power. What should I do to restore its power?

  Hello! My AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g) lights no more. I think he lost his power. What should I do to restore its power?

  If AirPort Express light does not illuminate, this indicates that the internal power supply inside the Express did not, and the device will need to be replaced.

  If you really a 802.11a/b/g in the Express version, it is at least 8 years old and probably much older than that.  Average life of this product was about 3-4 years, then you have had surprisingly good luck with your product.

• I just upgraded to a pace 5268AC router and can connect is more to my Airport base station. It does not appear in Airport utility. Any suggestions?

  I just upgraded to a pace 5268AC router and can connect is more to my Airport base station. The base station does not appear in Airport utility. Any suggestions?

  Whenever you change the modem or modem/router to which the airport links... or... change your Internet connection process, the airport must be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work with the new device.

  Your message did not mention if you did that, but if not... to perform a Hard Reset on the router of the airport would be the first thing to do, to follow in setting up the airport once again, just as you would if the airport was new and connection to your modem/router for the first time.

• no more WiFi which extends from the airport express and Time capsule

  I have no more WiFi which extends from the express airport and Time capsule.

  and once it worked...

  airportconfiguration-app also works, but the graphic display allows to have a straight white line. now, it's one interrupted...

  Your unbroken lines in airport show connections ethernet utility... broken lines show the wireless connections.

  So it depends on the extend method you used.

  I think at this moment, things are configured wrongly... for some strange reason things happens and elements on a stand-alone basis, return to a default mode.

  The best way to manage it is full factory reset on everything... and repeat the installation.

  I have no more WiFi which extends from the express airport and Time capsule.

  It seems to me that you extend a NON-APPLE router... in this case, your Apple routers must connect by ethernet and create a wireless network. Routers Apple cannot extend the NON-APPLE router wired.

  The express could extend the TC or visa versa... by wireless...

  Then I suggest say us what is the main router in the network?

  You have connected by ethernet to the TC or Express or both?

  If so please reset completely the two elements and try again. Make sure they are in bridge mode... It's the network tab. Router Mode is turned off.

  

  And your wireless tab is configured to create a wireless network...

  Use the same name (SSID) and even the security setting and the password as the main router to network roaming (extend wireless ethernet).

  If the Express and transport CANADA are the same, both will have this configuration... If the express extends to wireless then it should NOT be connected to all the way to ethernet... (sequel to wan side at least) and it will be set to expand wireless on the wireless tab.

• Replace 2004 Airport Extreme with more later?

  WE have an iMac 2009 running Snow Leopard and a MacBook Pro in late 2011, with the help of an old 2004 Airport Extreme Base Station. The second works very well, but I just discovered it's crimping our internet speeds considerably from that proposed Comcast (tested with ethernet this morning). I know that the new Airport Extreme WORK with our computers, but it will increase our speed, even though computers support not the fastest new PHY mode? I would not upgrade the router only to learn that we do not earn a lot (we can't get much more with the current router 17mbps, but by ethernet, we got 57mbps this morning).

  Thank you

  Owen

  So, if you have connected an Ethernet cable from your Mac to the port on the AirPort Extreme Ethernet older you 57 Mbps... or did you connect your Mac directly to your modem using Ethernet and pick up the 57 Mbit/s in this way?

  When you have measured 17 Mbps on the wireless connection... it was with the computer about 6-7 feet (or about 2 meters) from the airport with direct line of sight between the computer and the router AirPort?

  How many other wireless devices are also involved at the time?  To get a decent wireless speed reading, you want to try to restrict things to a single computer and the router from the airport when you run the speed control.

  Then add more wireless devices and run the speed check again to see how the "charge" on the wireless network speed is affected.

• Airport Express not on my network more

  My Airport Express has worked wonderfully for years. Today when I tried to use AirPlay, it shows that the Airport Express Terminal dropped out of the network. The network works fine everywhere else, iMac, iPhone, iPad Pro...  I checked the plug and it works fine. Also, I have plugged and unplugged the power cord from the socket and rear of the machine.  I also tried to reset. What can I do else? The Airport express has just been? I had about 4-5 years.

  Five years, on average, is about that for a router designed for home use, so it can be discussed here.

  Suggest that you perform a hard reset on the Express and try to set it up again. To do this, turn on the Express for a few minutes, then press and hold the reset button on the Express for 7 to 8 seconds and release.  Allow a minute for the Express restart to a slow status of amber light flashes.

  Try to implement the Express again. If the Express will not properly configure, or it will not stay on the network, it's time for a new AirPort Express Terminal.

• New airport Time Capsule is not connect to Airport Express more.

  When I just upgraded my Airport Extreme for a time Capsule of the airport, I lost my connection to the Airport Express connected to my stereo to allow playback Airtunes wireless. Airport utility is really different and shows that the new ATC.

  Help?

  -Stew

  Ok. It seems that my Express and my old extreme are no longer supported by Apple? Come on guys! I tried the Airport utility download stuff to my phone, but that did not work. Alternative workaround so I did not in the trash with a value of $400 of perfectly functional base stations? I just want to have Airplay again. GRRRR.

• A neighbor's wireless network is more powerful than mine, so my MacBookPro selects every time.  How can I eliminate the network of neighbour from the airport to the research?

  Wireless network from a neighbor is always "found" by my Airport first, then my MacBook links to it.  But I want to find my own network, of course.  Question: How can I remove this neighbor of the network function research network?  Is it still possible?  In other words, I want my laptop to ignore this network around when I wake up from my laptop.

  On your Mac laptop...

  Open the preferences system (gear on the dock icon)

  Open network

  Click WiFi on the left panel to select

  Click Advanced in the bottom right of the window

  Here you can see the list of networks that 'remembers' your laptop and connect to the network at the top of the list first.  If you want the laptop to connect to a specific network, click the network name to highlight, and then drag it to the top of the list.

  Now, click to highlight a network that you do not want your laptop to 'remember', then click on the - (less) button at the bottom of the list to remove the network. Do the same for other networks that you no longer need.

  Click OK at the bottom right of the window

  Click on apply in the next window that appears

  Close the windows and then restart your Mac.

• We moved the airport and the modem, and now 7660 printer does not print wireless more

  We have a new Airport Extreme, connected with a cable modem and a HP Photosmart 7660 printer connected to the airport with a USB cable.  Everything worked fine, then we move the cable and modem - now, we can print via the USB cable, the laptop can get online, and the printer appears in the printer list in system preferences. But we cannot print wireless. We are under Snow Leopard on a Mac laptop. We have tried to disconnect and reconnect the cables varied in different combinations.

  When you try to print we get the following message if poster in the box print that 'cannot send 8192 bytes of print data! (USB write error) "

  Now what?

  Thanks for any help!

  It's me again, we changed the USB cables and now it works. Yay.

  Thanks for your help.
