Airport Express can and can't find Base Station...

...I'll explain: When I am booted in the regular internal boot drive (OS X 10.5.5) my Express finds the Base Station just fine; but, I want to update a boot partition on an external drive which currently has 10.5.2, and when I boot up in THAT partition the Express can't find the Base Station. The only utility on that partition is "Airport Utility" and when I run it no Base Station shows up. Anyone ever experience this? Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello -- I solved my problem. While booted up in the OS that WOULD go online, I downloaded the "Airport Utility for Leopard" utility, then copied the installer onto the OS partition that WOULD NOT go online. Then I restarted in the boot partition # 2 (the one that wouldn't go online/ wasn't seeing my AirPort Base Station) and installed the newer utility. Then I ran the utility and, after a few clicks, THIS boot partition finally saw the Base Station and the AirPort Express, and therefore was able to get online. Thanks again for help.

  • If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo.  When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station.

    If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo.  When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station.  I just bought the Airport Express and it's not clear how I should set up my System Preferences for Sharing.  Thx

    Yes. Unfortunately the stereo is too far from the wired ethernet connection   My iMac is connected to the internet using an ethernet cable from the DSL modem (plugged into the wall, not wireless).  The Airport Express is plugged into an outlet 25' away from the iMac and connected to my speakers.  I've turned on the iMac Airport wireless Internet Sharing, hoping to stream iTunes to the Express connected to the stereo.  The iMac Airport picks up several neighborhood networks so I know it's working (and I connected my iPhone wifi to it just to check as well).
    When I use Airport Utility to set up the Express, the only time Utility recognizes the Express is when the iMac Airport is off.  When I turn on the iMac Airport, the Airport Utility immediately loses the Express and asks to rescan.
    Maybe that explains my problem better.

  • Does Airport Express 'g' slow down an 'n' Base Station network?

    I've got a network of 2 computers and a printer on an Airport Extreme 'n' Base Station. I've recently added the original Airport Express ('g') to that network to take advantage of AirTunes. Do I compromise the speed of the network by introducing a slower device into it?
    If so, is there different behavior for wired vs. wireless connections? My laptop is wireless, my MacPro does not have Airport and is hardwired to the network.
    I want to buy another Airport Extreme for another room. The new one will be 'n' so there would be two AE's connected, each different. Will everything run to it's maximum potential?

    And I take it all this does not affect the speed for the Ethernet connected components?
    Assuming there's no intervening wireless connection, yes.
    PS - Lazarus describes nicely how a b/g/n base station should work, ideally, but as he implies, "dual-band" doesn't mean "two transceivers" necessarily ("two antennas", yes). As I understand it, the 802.11n spec requires that the device also be capable of b/g operation, so it would have to be able to transceive at 2.4 and 5 GHz -- but perhaps not at the same time, so maybe one transceiver is enough.
    In any case, I've seen posts that agree with Chris Brown's description of how the AEBSn behaves.

  • Can I Use 802.11n Base Station and 802.11n AirPort Express in an 802.11 ac Time Capsule Main Base Station WDS Network?

    I havea "wirelessly challenged" 2-story home and need to extend the range.  Currently I have an 802.11n Main Base Station with an 802.11n Airport Express Remote.  It's not getting the job done (upstairs connection is weak).
    I am considering getting an 802.11ac Airport Time Capsule to help, even though I currently only have devices with 802.11n wireless connectivity (future-proof a little).
    I an planning on setting up a Wireless Distribution System (WDS) Network:
    1.) Setting up the Time Capsule as the Main Base Station connected to a Cable modem
    2.) Reconfiguring and Setting up the current AirPort Extreme 802.11n as a Relay Base Station
    3.) Reconfiguring and Setting up the current AirPort Express 802.11n as a Remote Station
    I cannot "hard wire" one Base Statio to the other.
    Will this work?

    Will this work?
    Unfortunately, no.  WDS is a older, very inefficient way to extend the wireless network signal.
    As such, newer operating systems like Lion, Mountain Lion and Mavericks do not even offer settings for this older WDS type of network.
    In addition, the new Time Capsule has no capabilities to use WDS settings at all, even if you used a Mac with another operating system to try to set things up.
    Even if it were possible to set up a WDS network, the speed on the network would be incredibly slow. As you know, WDS only operates at "g" wireless speed levels. Each "relay" or "remote" that you add to the network each cuts that bandwidth or speed in half.
    With a WDS "main", "relay" and "remote", the network would be operating at about 14 Mbps......a tiny fraction of what the devices would be capable of providing normally.

    The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
    1)  I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access.  But do I have to  change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
    Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
    So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
    2)  Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
    N.Korean hackers.
    [Edit] Whoops-- one more question:  I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it.  What do I need to do?
    You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
    Look at Q3 here.

    Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

  • Can't find Base Station in Airport Admin

    I had a perfectly working DSL based wireless network using Airport express, my iMac G4, and a Windows laptop. Then the phone company cut the DSL connection. After it was repaired, I reconnected everything but neither computer would connect to the Internet wirelessly. I can see the network in the pull-down menu from the Airport icon. During troubleshooting, I changed some buttons in the Airport Admin configuration pane and then poof! Airport Admin doesn't "see" the AE base station anymore. Even when I click "other" in the Airport Admin window and type in manually the AE ID number, I get an error message.
    I can connect to the internet through a wired Ethernet cable from the DSL router. I have tried resetting the AE multiple times, even back to the factory default settings, to no avail. I even get a green status light from AE. I tried reinstalling the Airport Admin software from my original disc, but it won't install as it is grayed out and says "disabled" Please help.
    iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   Westell "Wirespeed" DSL router

    OK, if it helps anyone else, I solved my problem by: 1. Updating my Airport software. 2. Directly connecting my Airport Express with ethernet cable to my iMac; this finally allowed Airport Admin Utility to communicate with AE and allow update of its configuration. 3. Then I unplugged ethernet cable from iMac and back between AE and DSL router and restarted AE. It works!

  • Airport Utility can't find base station

    I feel like I must be missing something very obvious. But my Airport Utility can't find any base stations, even though I am successfully connected to this network, the base station is about three feet away from the computer, and Internet Connect has no trouble finding it and specifiying the base station's id.
    I have just done a wipe-and-install of my whole computer; I've reinstalled all software from CDs or installers, and this utility wanted to upgrade to version 5.2.1 (it says Disk Version 2.0 on the disk) before running, so I did that. And no base station detected, despite rebooting the computer, and rescanning any number of times. I'm using OS 10.4.6.
    What can I do?
    Message was edited by: Paul-ny

    There is something puzzling that bothers me, even though I have things working again.
    I first lost access to the AEBS when I tried to use Airport Utility to change the security setting of my network. It has been on the default WPA2 setting, and I was wanting to downgrade that to WEP because the long WPA password was too long to be accepted by my Palm TX Wifi software. But the shorter WEP password shouldn't have been a problem. At the time, after my system reinstall, the utility and the base station seemed to be working all right.
    When I completed resetting the base station with WEP, though, there was an error message, after which I could no longer connect to the network with my laptop (using the old password or the new password), and then the utility lost sight of the base station as well. I had to do a hard reset and start over. When I did the same thing again, the same thing happened. When I reconfigured the base station with the WPA2 security, though, it all worked, and my laptop could get back online.
    At this point I tried changing it again to WEP, and the same problem recurred. One last time with WPA2, and that's where I am now, except that I was pleased to find that my PDA, which had just been replaced under warranty, has some newer software in it and it now can accept my passkey (?)-- my airport code rather than the 64(?)-digit number version of it, so it's working, too.
    But apparently Airport Utility has lost sight of the base station again. I don't need it for anything, but this is annoying. What's more curious, though, is what was happening when I chose WEP security.

    Kappy, you cannot move AirPort Utility in Mountain Lion to the trash in a normal way. Apple will not let you do this.....It is part of the Mountain Lion operating system....and cannot be modified or trashed.

  • I have the airport express as router can I buy the new airport express and use my old airport to extend my net?

    I have the airport express as router can I buy the new airport express and extend my net?

    Things can get confusing pretty quickly since there are 3 different versions of the AirPort Express.
    If by "old", you mean you have Model No A1084 or A1088 AirPort Express (look at the label on the side of the device for the Model No), it cannot be used with the "Extend a wireless network" feature of other newer Apple routers.
    If your AirPort Extreme is "square" shaped with rounded corners, then the "old" AirPort Express will not work with your AirPort Extreme using the "Extend a wireless network" settings.
    You could use a "previous version" AirPort Express, Model No A1264 to "Extend", or the "new" AirPort Express, Model No A1392, for that purpose.
    If your AirPort Extreme is a simultaneous dual band product, then the "new" Express would be able to "extend" both bands.  The "previous" AirPort Express (Model A1264) would be able to extend only one band, since it is not a dual band device.

  • Murder on the Airport Express (AE 1st Gen cannot find Wireless while plugged in in the same room as the modem, router and Time Capsule

    First, the reason for my compounded frustration:
    I wrote a lengthy, comprehensive post on this late last night.  I submitted it and received a notice at this URL:
    https://discussions.apple.com/___sbsstatic___/maintenance.html?start=0&tstart=0
    It gave a message:  "A yellow sticky bearaing the words, "We'll be back soon."  and a typed message reading, "We are busy updating Apple Support Communities for you and will be back shortly."  Needless to say, it never came back.  This morning as I began trying to reconstruct the very detailed post I wrote last night, the Communities system offered me an opportunity to restore the post from last night.  Sadly, it contained only a portion of the first line.
    I'm going to try it again.  The problem inherent in putting it all in words last night, is that I no longer remember the exact wording of the error messages.
    I've never gotten this Airport Express (1st gen, purchased mid 2010) to work.  I thought it was working, but working poorly.  A green light on the device is, apparently, NOT an indication of connection to the wireless.  It wasn't workingl.
    Description of devices which use the network:
    I have a Broadband network with a modem. 
    It is connecteed to my 2T Timecapsule (purchased mid 2010). 
    Connected to that is a 24 port Cisco Router. 
    Not connecting to that, though showing a solid green light, is my Airport Express (1st Generation, purchased mid 2010)
    Connected to the router are many ethernet cables giving hard-wired access to:
    Printers (HP 8600 Pro purchased 2012))
    MacBook Pro (purchased mid 2010) and
    IMAC (purchased mid 2010).
    3 Apple TV devices (1st generation purchased early 2011)
    1 Apple TV device (2nd generataion purchased August 2012)
    Connecting to the Wireless Network are IOS devices (current IOS versions on all)
    iPad 2nd generation (purchased the day it was available) 
    iPad 3rd generation (purchased the day it was available)
    iPod (mid 2010)
    iPhones (4S)
    Description of Layout of Network/House
    My home is approximately 70 feet by 25 feet. 
    All Networking hardware is at one end of the house, the south side.
    Airport Express (1st Gen, 2010) has been placed in the middle of the house to boost the wireless access at the north end of the house.
    Ethernet cables are installed under flooring with cable ends extending up through flooring, and are availble to all devices with Ethernet ports..
    Description of Problem
    Investigation of the wireless access dysfunction with the iPad (2nd generation, mid 2010)  revealed no connection to the Wireless Network, in spite of glowing green light on Airport Express and Airport Utility screen.
    Description of actions taken to correct the problem
    Loaded Airport Utility on MacBook Pro.
    Airport Express shows green light on screen.
    Double clicked on Airport Express Icon
    Message that Airport Express was unable to extend the network
    Message changes suddenly to something about not finding the Airport Express

    Bring Mac into the room at the south end of the house containing all network devices and the Airport Express with the green light
    Close Airport Utility on Mac
    Reboot Mac
    Open Airport Utility on Mac
    Airport Express still shows as it did in 1.1.7. above.
    Attempts to check Airport Express' access to Wireless network:
    Unplugged Airport Express HEY!  THE GREEN LIGHT WENT OUT!!!  ;0)
    Disconnected all Ethernet cables.
    Tested ALL devices for Wireless access.
    All devices access the Wireless network extremely well (dot and three curved bars) EXCEPT
    IOS Devices tested at the north end of the house. These devices show a blank where the wireless bars should be, and intermittently show a dot.
    Followed instructions contained in a similar discussion about Airport Express not functioning:
    Unplugged all Networking Hardware
    Powered off all Equipment which access the Internet in any possible way.
    Powered up all Networking Hardware, one at a time, in the order described in that discussion.
    Powered up all Equipment which access the internet, one at a time.

    Tested Wireless access:
    Removed all ethernet cabling
    All devices, including IOS devices, access the Wireless Network perfectly EXCEPT any placed in the north end of the house.  Those perform exactly as they did in step 3.3.2.
    Connected all ethernet cabling.
    Plugged Airport Express into socket in the Network Hardware room at the south end of the house.  I get exactlyt the same results as before.  The lovely green light glows on the Airport Express.  Airport Utility reports Airport Express cannot find the Wireless network and also says there are no base stations connected to the internet.
    Still in Network Hardware room, I attempt to find other base stations by cabling the Airport Express to the MacBook Pro
    Airport Utility shows Airport Express with a green light
    I double click the Airport Express Icon
    Box says connection is average and status is (green light) Extended Network.
    I click Edit
    I go through each tab.  I note that in the Wireless tab, the Network Mode is as I had set it, "Extend a wireless network".
    Under the Network tab I note that "Enable Access Control" is as it should be, NOT selected. 
    Under the AirPlay tab, I note that "Enable airPlay" is selected.
    I click cancel and leave the Edit screens.
    Curious to know if Airport Express can find the Wireless network now that the device claims to be functioning as an extended wireless network, I disconnect the ethernet cable from the Airport Express.
    I watch the Airport Utility screen closely.  Nothing is happening.
    With bated breath, I double click on the Airport Express icon.
    The popup box shows "extended wireless network"
    I click on edit and we start the whole mess over again.  (See 1.1-9. above)
    Curious to know if cabling the Airport Express to the iMac (almost to middle of house) will offer hope and prosperity to IOS devices at north end, I unplug the Airport Express and carry its now-exhausted little body to the iMac, ethernet cable in hand.
    As I unplug the iMac from its ethernet access, I'm informed by Cranky Boy that no way is he going to accept that as a reasonable solution to his problem.  He will not live wireless while even one ethernet cable is poking up through a floorboard.
    Cranky Boy is reassured when informed that, though the Airport Utility shows the Airport Express connected, merely double clicking on the icon produces the same result as laboriously described in 1.1-9. above.
    After quieting Cranky Boy by reconnecting the iMac to the Ethernet, I return the Airport Express to the Network Hardware room.
    Again, curious to know ...  I reconnect the Airport Express to the MacBook Pro. I want to know if it will exrtend the Wireless network from its position one foot from the Wireless Network.
    I close and reopen Airport Utility (as I always do, but forgot to write)
    I click on the Airport Express icon (which bears a little green light like the other big boys).
    BUT THIS TIME, when I click on the Airport Express icon, the pop-up box says my connection is Excellent, the green light status shows, "Extended Network" and clicking on "Extended Network" produces the same old `Airport Express was unable to extend the Wireless Connection. 
    I click on the Edit option. 
    I buzz through all the tabs.  I cancel instead of update, leaving everything as it was (as I did the first time)
    I decide to go back into edit and select "Internet Options" under the "Internet" tab.
    Since I have no idea whatsoever as to what IPV6 is and what it governs, I decide to configure IPV6 to Automatically Connect and then, with a whole new set of opportunities, I leave IPV6 Mode set to "Tunnel" and then I learn that I will get to see what happens when  "Enable IPV6 Connection Sharing" is enabled.
    I check the other tabs to see if anything has changed in their menus
    Jesus Saves and so did I. 
    Apple updates and so did I.
    I am warned that my device and its network services will be temporarily unavailable if I continue. 
    It seems unaware that I am laughing uncontrollably at the suggestion that my device and its services will be TEMPORARILY AVAILABLE.  What?  An improvement in performance is warned?
    Life continues and so do I.
    I breathe deeply to decrease my adrenaline.
    Airport Utility flashes a red warning next to the Airport Express Icon and then quickly rethinks the matter and decides to show it as connected.
    I click on the Airport Express Icon.  This time my connection is only "good".
    I click on Extended Network. With a new-found consistency it informs me that my device is unable to extend the Wireless network and it chats with me about using the same Wireless password for my device that is used for the Wireless network access.  I did.  It is.
    I change my settings back to the way they once were, I save like Jesus and Update like Apple
    I decide to go back into Edit and modify the settings under the Wireless tab, changing from "Extend Wireless Network" to "Join Wireless Network".
    I save.
    I click on the Airport Express Icon.  My connection has degraded further to "Average"
    I click on edit just to see what will happen, but no further information is forthcoming.  Settings are as I left them.
    I wonder if the Airport Express would extend itself now that it has joined the Wireless Network.
    I click the Airport Express Icon.
    I click Edit
    I change the Network Mode from "Join a Wireless Network" to Extend a Wireless Network. Unfortunately, there was no option for "don't forget where the Wireless Network is!"
    I am still "unable to extend the Wireless network"
    I disconnect the Airport Express from my MacBook Pro.
    After closing and opening Airport Utility, I sit and stare at the Airport Express Icon.
    It has no light or error messages
    It has a yellow triangle with exclamation point
    It has no light or error message
    It has a yellow triangle with exclamation point
    I finally decide to see what THIS error messages says.  It says Device Not Found.  Patti Harada's AirPort Express was previously part of your network.  Check that it is still in range of your network and is plugged into a power outlet.  Click Forget to remove this base station from this network."
    I click "Forget".  Airport Utility has forgotten the Airport Express ever existed.  It has also forgotten how to find it again.
    I, however, am unable to forget how much I shelled out for this POS and fear I will never recover from working this intensely and tediously on documenting something so hideously inconsistent in its test results.
    I wonder if I should recable the Airport Express to my MacBook Pro
    I decide I've had about enough.
    I document this ad nauseum in the hopes that someone can read it THOROUGHLY and offer me a solution to my problem.  What is my problem?  I am so busy fighting off Alligators that I forgot I only came in to drain the swamp!  Ah, but I remember now:  Cranky Boy can't watch Netflix on his iPad (2nd generation) in the north end of the house.
    Any solution that works will do.  I'll buy another piece of whatever kind of equipment you think best.

    Well, aren't you all that and a bag of chips!!!!
    Oh what a relief!  What a RELIEF!  
    That just cleaned up my life.  And Cranky Boy is actually smiling!!!
    Houston, we've got dots AND BARS!!!
    P.S.  All my firware and software are always current.  If I spent as much time looking for a reset button as I spend checking for software updates, I mighta not needed to work at this!!!!
    P.P.S.  Airport Utility shows Cranky Boy's iPad as the Airport Express' Wireless Client!!!   Who knew?
    Thank you so much, m'Lord.  I am in your debt.  What would you have me do?

  • Utility can't find base station

    I'm trying to change the security protection on my base station but when I open the Airport Utility, it just scans for a long time and says "can't find base station." The station works fine but the utility can't find it. What should I do?

    I've had the same issue for several weeks also. Even reverting back to 7.1.1 I still have the problem. It's an issue for me, as the Airport Disk Utility doesn't recognize my USB disk.
    While restarting Aiport Extreme temporarily solves the problem, everytime I shut down my Mac, Airport Utility doesn't recognize my disk when I start up my Mac. Have you found out anything yet?

    I can't speak specifically regarding LG, but the Whole Home feature on Direct TV (record a movie on one DVR and watch it on another TV in another location) just won't work with wireless, and I have a strong fast connection at 300 Mbps. Ethernet works perfectly.
    Few audio/video products will accept "n" wireless at 5 GHz. I suspect that your LG accepts a 2.4 GHz signal, which would top out at 130 Mpbs.
    If you are trying to stream High Definition video, especially at 1080P, my opinion would be that it is unlikely that you will be able to do so reliably using wireless.
    Perhaps another user who has figured out how to do this will post with some input.
