Airport Express 6.2 not working with PPPoE

This is strange. I've got an ADSL connection and I can get it working perfectly happily directly connected to an iBook, a Mac mini and even a Dos machine (running XP). However I get a 'connection refused' in the log of the Airport Express.
I've got it to the highest level of logging (7 - Debug), but I can't get any more information as to why it fails to log on. I've tried entering both the password and user ID many times in case I mistyped them, but I can't seem to get away from this.
Any sugggestions gratefully received

I don't think that PPPoE just became available with the latest firmware version for the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), but you may want to consider upgrading to v6.3 to see if it solves the problem you're having.

Airport Express + iTunes 10 not working with Airtunes, but 2nd Airport does

Hey,
at first I have to excuse myself for my English, i come from Germany.
I looked around in the topics but i didn't find anything that helped me.
I own 2 Airport Express stations since nearly a year.
One of it creates a Wi-Fi network and is connected to a switch, which is connected to the internet.
The other Airport Express is set up as repeater and everything works fine, even Airtunes.
But then i noticed, that the Wi-Fi creating one was not able to work with Airtunes, which it was some weeks ago. I think this has something to do with iTunes 10. The other Airport works well with Airtunes with the same Macbook and speakers.
So I made a new set up on the Wi-Fi Airport, because some guys reported, that the problem would disappear then, but it didn't.
But I wondered why my iPhone 4 is now abled to play music via Airtunes with the new iOS 4.2.1 on the "broken" Airport, because my mac was not abled to do so and I thought of returning it to the Apple Store.
So how do i get this thing running again? I would like to use both of the Airports to listen to music in different rooms with my Macbook.
I would be glad for any help, thanks in advance

@TheShima,
First open up the airport utility and see if both AE's show up. If not:
This would be my guess, unplug them both for 10 seconds, plug the network creating one back into the wall, them plug the second one back in after the first has a green light. If that doesn't work, "manual setup" and looking for the option that allows speaker sharing.
Finally if that doesn't work reset them, recreate the network reviewing the the advanced settings in "manual setup" and looking for the option that allows speaker sharing.
Does anyone know how to get movie audio to play through the airport express? I really want this to exist my wife's laptop speakers are awful and I would love to have the audio streamed to my airport express.

HT1515 How do i get my old AirPort Express (7years old) to work with my new Time Capsule?

How do i get my old AirPort Express (7years old) to work with my new Time Capsule?

Does anyone at Apple have help for this sort of question - I too have an old printer (HP LaserJet 5MP) that I would like to keep using on my Mac. (Mac OSX 10.6.8).
I got it working by getting a USB cord that connects to it - but every once in a while it just stops working for weeks. The mac 'sees' it and it sends the data because the printer lights start blinking but then it just doesn't do anything. Is there no one who can tell me (and raterada) how to get some new life into these old printers. I would rather not add this (and a new toner cart) to the landfill just yet. . .

AirTunes / Airport Express / Windows XP not working together

Here's the issue. I have two PCs available to me; a laptop from work that is tightly locked down by our paranoid IT dept, and a family desktop that has the iTunes library within it. I purchased airport express so that I could stream to my stereo. The laptop does not have iTunes on it, the IT dept having cunningly deployed some way of blocking its install. They did not, however, block airport utility.
Both computers connect happily over wireless to Verizon FiOs and on into the wider world.
1) The laptop's airport utility will happily locate and allow configuration of the express unit.
2) The desktop unit, however, does not find the airport express at all finding no apple wireless devices. However, knowing from the laptop (and from direct to the fios router's network map utility) I can tell airport utility to "configure other" supplying the express' IP address and p/w. Then it finds it and can configure away until I hit the update button. It then can find it no longer until I configure other again.
The point is, iTunes / air Tunes, hosted on the same desktop, displays, I suspect, similar behavior. It never finds the "speakers".
I have tried switching off Norton's firewall altogether, the windows firewall altogether, going w/o any WEP or WPA without luck. Also, I have tried configuring the unit as first as a "joining an existing wireless network", and, second, as it own new wireless network again without avail.
I have spent 4 hrs with Apple support and we thought we had it licked; the speakers appeared briefly after switching to a "bridge" connection share mode. The speakers duly showed up. Letting the gentleman go off the phone in triumph, I stupidly neglected to test the connection from iTunes through to the amp and ran into the error code 15000. Trying some of the ideas in these and other forums to beat that then led me back to square one, never seeing the much anticipated speakers again.
Any ideas out there?
Thanks much!

I detected a problem with Airport+iTunes in Vista and some XP machines.
I have 3 machines: Lenovo 3000 N200 Vista, Compaq nx9010 XP and Asus EEE Top XP.
On the Compaq, APutil and iTunes perform flawlessly 100% of the time. However, on the Lenovo and the Asus, ApUtil doesn´t detect my 2 Airport Express, and iTunes will drop the connection after 30-60 minutes. Then I have to restart iTunes in order that it "sees" my Airports again.
At first, I thought it was a problem with Vista. Later, as it happened on my Asus XP, I thought it was a hardware/driver compatibility problem. Then I decided to make some experiments.......
I found that at startup, 2 processes are activated: iTuneshelper and APAgent.
I cancelled both of them. Voila ! Suddenly APUtil detects my Airports, and no more dropped connections in iTunes !!!!!
Now, it remains still unanswered to me: Why did the problem not happen on my Compaq ???

Airport Extreme, Airport Express network extending not working

I have had the Airport Extreme base statin for a while now and have had it running fine on my two computers, ones a Macbook Pro and the other is a Sony laptop. My brother recently moved in with me and he has not been getting a good enough signal to run his computer off the extreme. We bought the Airport Express to be an extender of the network. I have tried about every configuration in setting it up but for some reason his computer does not want to work. He is also using a Sony, but an older Sony with Xp and no Wireless Card, so he is using a Wireless USB adapter. I can set everything up, everything is Green and he still can't use the network, what is even more weird is that his computer wont even see the Airports in Airport Utility. Any ideas on what to do next?

I am pretty sure that it does. He can get the signal and access the internet, every once and a while, the other night it worked for an hour straight before it stopped working and hasn't worked since. I am about to take back the USB wireless adapter and try something else. I am so frustrated because he wont get off my back.

Airport Express 802.11n - not working at all!

I have had some trouble with my Airport express. Nothing works. I have tried to hard reset and factory default reset but nothing happens. It's only blinking yellow, and if i put a ethernet cable into it it turns green, but it still not showing in either airport (wireless) or at the airport utility. I have checked with both my MacBook Pro and my Mac Pro.
I also have a Airport extreme and i tried to expand the network wirelessly when i had the express up and running, but when it restarted it self it didn't show up nowhere.
Can someone help me out here?

After a factory default reset, the AirPort Express is broadcasting a wireless network with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx.
If you are tying to configure the Express using wireless, you need to make sure that your Mac is logged on to this network first, before you open AirPort Utility.
It's also possible to connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to the AirPort Express and then open AirPort Utility. Once the Express has been configured an updated, you can remove the Ethernet cable.

ESATA express card does not work with Mavericks. Any suggestions?

This is an Apiotek II 300 Express Adapter. I went out to Apiotek.com and it appears the domain is for sale. Is there any way to get a software update or do I have to buy a new Express Card that allows eSATA drives to work with Mavericks. I did a backup before I upgraded using X 10.7.5 and everything worked fine. The eSATA drive is not seen using Disk Utility either.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.

The driver has to come from the manufacturer of the card, so your two options are to get another card or to use your full backup to go back to 10.7.5. That assumes it's a clone backup and not Time Machine.

Airport Express and Airtunes not working

Hi all. I have a Digital Audio G4. I've been able to use my G4 with iTunes and my Airport Express for quite a while. All of sudden iTunes no longer sees it. The Airport Admin Utility doesn't see it either. But I can still connect to the internet with it. What makes this even weirder is, I also have a MacBook Pro. The MacBook Pro has no problem seeing the Airport Express in the Airport Admin Utility and in iTunes.
Any Help you can give is much appreciated.

I can't offer any help. I am having the same problem except I have an Airport Extreme with the Airport Express acting as an extender. The only thing that works for me is unplugging the Airport Express and plugging it back in. Sometimes it is fine the entire day. Other times I have to do this multiple times throughout the day. I don't think this is a good, long-term solution. Any help anyone?

Wired printer on an airport express from laptop not working

Hi,
Bougth an aiport express 2 weeks ago to replace a cisco linksys that suddenly stop working, the set up was very easy and wifi network is up and running, some devices are connected to the main network and some have issues doing it, particularly a mac laptop and a windows laptop, I created a guess network for these devices to access internet and that solved the problem however those two computers are the ones that need to print and because they are on the guess network sounds like that is not possible.
The lan port IP address on the airport is 10.0.1.1 so I assigned that IP address to the printer but somehow it doesnt work.
I had been disable and enable the credentials on the windows laptop but I'm kind of loss here.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Although your post does not mention how the scanner is connected, my guess would be that you have it connected to the USB port on the AirPort Express. Is that correct?
If yes, unfortunately, the USB port on the AirPort Express does just what Apple says it will do.....print. Other advanced functions like copy, scan, maintenance, etc are not supported.
If you need to scan a document, you will need to connect the scanner directly to your computer.

Apple airport express wireless printing not working on Windows

I have installed the Airport Utility v 5.5.3 and Bonjour Printer Wizard on my Windows XP (SP3) machine. I have successfully set up the router, but am unable to print wirelessly. In the utility, I see my printer and have selected the checkbox Share printers over WAN. I have the driver printers installed on a Windows laptop, but am unsuccessful printing from the laptop.
I read somewhere that I need to set the Internet > Connection Sharing to Off (Bridge Mode). I did that and then got the following error and then can't connect to the internet via the router at all:
An error occurred while trying to access the Apple wireless device. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again. Error -6753.
I have tried setting up Bridge Mode several times and ensured my virus protection and firewall were disabled, but always the same results, so I reset my router and am back to using the Internet > Connection Sharing option of Share a public IP address.
The whole reason I bought this router is because it is supposed to be easy for wireless printing, but this has been far from easy to set up. So frustrating. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your quick response. Yes, I have Bonjour Print Services installed. I thought I had to select Share printers over WAN for some reason. Just now I deselected this setting, updated the utility and wireless printing still does not work .

HT3546 Does the Airport Extreme Base Station not work with the OS X Lion?

Ever since updated to OSX Lion can't get our airport station to work. Is it too old and won't work with this upgrade so do we need a newer airport?

Suggest that you download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion which should work with your older AirPort Extreme.
You can keep both AirPort Utility 6.1 and 5.6 on your Mac and use the one that you want or need at the time.

Sonnet pro express card does not work with lion 7.3.4 warning

After upgrading to Lion 7.3.4 my volumes attached via a Sonnet Express Pro 34 card via SATA no longer mount.
I have the current driver from Sonnet 2.2.8
The volumes appear in Disk Utility, AND pass both the disk verify and repair
However, attempts to mount the volumes result in a message from Disk Utility to attempt repairing the disk

Tried deinstalling and reinstalling the Sonnet driver. Doesn't help.
Really odd that the drives will readly pass Disk Utility's first aid checks and repairs, spin up and down under Disk Utility, but simply won't mount.
Revereted back to 10.7.3 and now back on line.
Hopefully Sonnet will create a fix, but wow, could be Lion 10.7.4's fault given that the underlying drive structure looks sound to Disk Utility (even under 10.7.4). Lion 10.7.4 dislikes something about the Sonnet Tempo Pro Expresscard/34 sata connected drives.

Airport Express worked with previous ADSL modem, not working with new one

hello all.
maybe the majority of you people won't be able to help me, since i am in Brazil.
this is the story:
for the last 4 years i was a subscriber of the Speedy ADSL provider (in conjunction with the Terra content provider). the Sppedy service is part of the Telefonica telephone company and uses the regular telephone infrastructure to provide the ADSL signal thru telephone lines.
approximately 2 years ago i bought an Airport Express and set it up with the ADSL modem that Speedy provided to me. configuration was a breeze and it worked flawlessly since then.
as of last thursday (april 7th) i became a subscriber of the Ajato ADSL provider. the Ajato company is part of the TVA (cable tv) company and uses the TVA cable tv infrastructure to provide the ADSL signal.
the problem is: when i connect the Cisco DPC3000 ADSL modem to my Macbook via ethernet cable, i can surf the internet with Ajato with no problems. but when i connect the modem to my Airport Express (even though i have reset AE in order to clear the previous Speedy/Terra configuration), i get no internet in my home wireless network.
i know you guys don't have Ajato there, of course. but i suppose some of you might have faced similar problems in similar cable ADSL environments.
this said, any kind of help or hint is greatly appreciated.

First that Cisco DPC3000 is a cable modem, not a ADSL modem. You probably don't need the DSL configuration that you had before.
when i connect the modem to my Airport Express (even though i have reset AE in order to clear the previous Speedy/Terra configuration), i get no internet in my home wireless network.
How did you "reset" the AE? How is it configured now? You probably need a setting of "Connect Using:" "Ethernet", rather than the "PPPoE" setting you may have had before.
If everything else looks good, it's common to have to reset a modem when switching what device is connected to it. Try powering down the modem for a few minutes. If it has a reset switch, press that.

Airport express not working with optus network

Hi there, the airport express seems not working with my optus network. It is keeping me I cannot access the internet but I do have a wifi signal. Initially I thought there was some problems with Enhernet Wan port on the AE, but after I've done some research I found there might some changes needed to be done with my old router. All I know is im using a NETGEAR router, network type is PPPOE. Also, there were people metioned on the forum that theold modern should be changed to brigdeging mode. I have no idea what is it. Please help. cheers.

Configuration is simple if you start from a factory default condition. Then connect the Airport to AC power and finally to the Internet modem (or modem/router). Open Airport Utility on your Mac or other computer and accept all of the recommendations. After confirming that it works, insert your desired administrative and WiFi passwords.
Do not expect the Airport to respond instantly to the configuration commands. BE PATIENT!
