Apple AirPort Express wireless base station & aol uk

HI want to get this base station but need to know if it will work with my ISP AOL any help please greatly received thanks John

If AOL provides a modem to UK customers, then yes it will work. For more info:

However, if it doesn't, you can still make it work. All you have to do is purchase an ADSL2+ modem such as:

  • 802.11n and Airport Express iTunes Base station Help me ?

    I'll try to keep this simple :
    In my Office I have a 24" iMac Intel and the
    802.11n resides also in my Office
    About 40ft away is my Den which resides:
    My MacBook Pro 17" Intel and a Airport Express iTunes
    Base Station
    Going Back to the 802.11n I have a 2.0 USB AC Powered
    Hub connected to the USB port on the back of the 802.11n
    of which  said is OK to do
    Connected to the USB on the back of the 802.11n:
    is a Epson R200 USB InkJet Printer and also on that
    Hub is a Lacie Porche 500gb External USB Hard Drive
    Again  says is Ok to do
    The problem I'm having is that the Cable Modem is
    in my Office and is connected via Ethernet to the 802.11n
    and I can get a strong connection to the internet
    on my iMac 24" Intel in my Office but the MBP 17"
    in my Den is having issues getting onto the Internet
    now about a week ago I spent 8hrs on the phone W/Apple
    about such issues so we erased all the information in
    the Disk Utility and started over with the information
    in the 802.11n and the iTunes Base Station Express
    this has helped until the recent FirmWare Update that
    Apple Released a few days ago,
    I've tried to actual bring my MBP 17" into the Office
    and it gets a better Internet signal than in the Den,
    but this wasn't the way it was before the FirmWare Update
    Any Suggestions on what I can do to fix this situation
    As all worked well with the Express iTunes in the Den
    and the 802.11n in the Office and the Cable Modem has
    always been in the Office ?
    P.S> One problem I forgot to mention is I keep dropping
    The Macbook Pro 17" and a Lacie 400gb Hard Drive which is
    connected directly to the MBP 17" USB Port which keeps
    dropping from my iMac 24" networking it will be working
    fine and then I get a message stating that either or both
    the MBP 17" and the Lacie Disk (400gb) is Disconnecting
    from iMac 24" and then the same will happen on the
    MBP 17" with the iMac 24" and any connected drives I'm
    sharing from the iMac 24" ?
    I'm having a connection problem and I can't get to the
    bottom of it and I need some help please
    Feel free to email me [email protected]

  • Mac G5 drops/loses connection to Airport Extreme wireless base station

    When I power up my Mac, it connects normally to the AE wireless base station. After some time (sometimes minutes, sometimes hours) the connection will be lost, although all indications are that it is operating normally, i.e. the AE icon at the top of the screen shows that there is a connection, there are no error messages. The G5 is just not connected to the Internet: the browser won't connect to a Web site, I can't upload or download files to my Web space.
    I originally had the problem with a D-Link wireless router so I replaced that with an AE base station. I have replaced that AE base station with a new one (it's the one that looks like a flying saucer) thinking that I might have gotten a faulty one from the factory, I've replaced the original wireless card in the G5 with a ndw Airport Extreme card, I've moved the AE base station into the same room as the G5 (right now it hangs on the wall directly above the G5). I also connect a PC laptop and a MacBook Pro to the Internet via the AE base station and have no problem with either one of them. The G5 and MacBook are running Mac OS X 10.4.10, the PC is running Windows XP.
    Also, when I connect the router directly (hardwire) to the G5 it works fine.
    The router is a new Siemens Speedstream 4100 (this is also a replacement for the original router).
    Since all the equipment in my system has been replaced with the exception of the G5, I assume that the problem lies within the G5.
    Perhaps there are settings that can be changed on the G5 to make it more stable in the system,although I have enabled Interference Robustness to no improvement? I am at a loss to come up with a solution. I can't find any literature that addresses this problem specifically. Each time the connection is lost, I have to restart the G5 to get back online which means, of course, saving my data, shutting down all running programs and then restarting. Turning the AE card off and back on does not work.
    I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
    Thank you,
    Don

    I could find no solution in the troubleshooting and set up pages. The only thing I couldn't check out was "Hardware access control" since I don't know how to access this control and no instructions that I could find were given as to how to do this.
    I ended up hardwiring the G5 directly to the Airport using the Ethernet ports. This is less than ideal since I am required to locate the Airport near the G5, defeating the purpose of having the Airport, at least for the G5. I am still able to connect my PC and MacBook Pro wirelessly, though and, ironically in the case of the PC, have never had any trouble with these. I am still baffled but don't have the time to "play" anymore and at least I have a functioning, if not ideal, system.
    I don't see the point in purchasing a new AE, since I have had this same problem throughout with various configurations and pieces of hardware and the problem persists in exactly the same way no matter what I swap out. I recently purchased and installed the latest issue of AE card in the G5. I think the problem is in the G5, either in the configuration or in the hardware.
    Thanks for your suggestions.

  • HT5022 i cannot install airport utility 5.6 onto my computer although i need it to configure an older airport express and base station

    i cannot install airport utility 5.6 onto my computer although i need it to configure an older airport express and base station

    Here is my method.. the software is free that is required.. always a good point.
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall 6.1 so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.
    For screen shots see this post.

  • Apple Airport Express - Wireless Access Point

    Hi there,
    I'm planning to extend my wireless range and am wondering if the Apple Airport Express is able to connect to my wireless router (NetComm NB6Plus4WN Wireless Router).
    I'm getting a poor signal from my NetComm WR downstairs and wondering whether the Airport Express will extend the range.
    Lastly, is it easy to setup on Windows 7? I tried a TP Link wireless access point router but found it difficult to setup and wasn't able to get it working.
    Thanks.
    Vimal

    I'm planning to extend my wireless range and am wondering if the Apple Airport Express is able to connect to my wireless router (NetComm NB6Plus4WN Wireless Router).
    If you are planning to connect the AirPort Express to your router using an ethernet connection, this should be relatively straightforward to achieve. If you are asking if you can do this using wireless only, the AirPort Express would not be compatible with your router for this purpose. Both your main router and remote need to be Apple"n" devices for the "extend a wireless network" feature to work correctly.
    Post back if you need more info on how to configure the AirPort Express if you can use the ethernet connection method.
    The AirPorts are configured using AirPort Utility. It features both a guided setup option or a manual setup option.

  • Printing with Airport Express as Base Station

    That is, I think our Airport Express is our base station. It's the only thing we have, and we can connect to the internet just fine, but it doesn't show up in the Airport Utility.
    The main problem is printing through the Airport Express. Our printer prints fine when plugged into the USB on the ibook but it won't print from the USB on the Airport Express.
    We can see the printer located on our wireless network but when we try to print the print center says that printing has stopped with an error of level one, or category one or something. I do see the appropriate printer driver on the list when I add the printer (I think it's an Epson C40ux, but I'm doing this from memory) and that's set correctly. I've got the unofficial list of printers that work and don't work and I see that some printers may need other drivers to work from the wireless network. There must be other things to check, but I'm a little new at this. It seems like this would be a common problem but I'm not seeing many posts like this so if anyone has a moment and any ideas I'd be grateful. Thanks. Mark

    Thanks... I will try that first. I've also been advised to delete the network and add a new one with the printer connected... but your idea is simpler.

  • Airport Express - Extreme Base Station - MacBook Connection PLEASE HELP!

    Ok, i thought i had a pretty good idea of what i was doing with my mac stuff but apparently not, can someone talk me through how to set up the following - i've google and searched forums far and wide and cannot seem to find a simple walk through guide, even read the manual. The Airport Express manual online still says you can only stream to one device at a time.
    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station broadcasting a DSL connection from a router - works a treat. I also have 1TB WD Hard Drive plugged into the Base Station which works as a shared AirDisk - also works a treat. I have two stereos at each end of the house and got my hands on two Airport Express devices (Models: A1084 and A1088).
    I've gone through every possible scenario in setting these up to join the network but once they're 'joined' there no sign of them, and they no longer show up in my Airport Utility so can no longer configure them, thus having to reset them and start again.
    I've tried a) setting up a WDS network, the base station as the main and the express' units as remote. No show in iTunes and no real show of being on the network at all; and b) tried leaving the existing network as is and joining the express' to that, again, they supposedly 'join' (i assume, only because they no longer show up as their own network) but do not show up in iTunes. As far as I've tested and found, I have the latest of all versions of software / firmware available, including Leopard, iTunes and Airport Utility... HELP! It's driving me MAD! And a thousand thank you's in advance...

    Thanks for your help, after trouble shooting to no end, I've discovered it has something to do with the WEP password I was using and after reading through many a support article I found this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2098?viewlocale=en_US - however, the $ sign doesn't seem to work to when setting up the Express' (even tried making the password the very one used in that article) and when I set the network up initially, it seemed my flatmates PC's only joined the network if I used a WEP password, rather than a WPA that i'd rather use.
    Any suggestions here? Do I have to use a WEP password to let Windows join?

  • I accidentally set my airport express to base station when it should be my time capsule and can't set it back

    I'm an idiot!
    I have my Time Capsule as my base station. I have two Aiport Exrpres' that connect to them.
    One of the AE's was not working right, so I went it, did a soft reset, and using the Airport Utility, I accidentally identified the AE as the base station.
    I've now gotten the Time Capsule set as the base station, and of of the AE's working off of it...however, when I plug the other AE in, it trumps the Time Capsule and shows it as the base station, and then the TC doesn't work.
    I've tried doing a soft reset, and then hitting forget, but I can't figure out how to how it show as the child to the parent (the TC), as the other AE does.
    Help!!
    Thank you,
    Dennis

    Thank you, that seems to have done the trick...I knew Apple would be much easier than Windows!
    I appreciate your help!

  • Dedicating an Airport Express Remote Base Station to a BB Curve

    Hello all,
    Please forgive me if this has been answered in another thread. I have been searching for the last week or so and have found that many people are experiencing the same frustration with the BB Curve and H@H (UMA) service. Someone recently suggested that I dedicate the Remote Base Station to my BB Curve so as to grant the UMA a fighting chance (my network consists of one Main and one Remote base station). In other words, the problem, as I understand it, is that UMA/voice data gets kicked off the network in favor of true data. If I can dedicate my extra (remote base station) airport express to my Blackberry, then the UMA should work more reliably.
    Sooo...here is my question:
    How do I assign my remote base station (set-up through WDS) to serve only my Blackberry Curve? Should I not do this? How do I find my Curve's MAC and IP address? Which address do I need? So on and so forth...
    Thank you all who help.
    james

    No one seems to know what's going on! I'll retract it, then. Thank you for your consideration.

  • Airport Express extending Base Station network very slow.

    Hi,
    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station and an Express, both of which are 802.11N. Currently I have my express connected and extending the network hosted by the Base Station but when I am in a location where I use the Airport Express rather than the Base Station it is extremely slow. If I am on a call on Skype for example the calls drop constantly or I have latencies over 2000 if I am playing a game. But Once I am in range of the Base Station my wi-fi is great. Anybody have any ideas as to why?

    What are the steps to extend the network using the Airport Exprss with a Linksys router? I have the Airport Express working with my network (a Linksys WRT54G) but have never attempted to use it to extend the network; instead, it just works for Airtunes currently.
    In addition, I can't seem to get Airport Express Assistant to work on my Macbook Pro. It says there's an error when it tries to connect to my Airport card, which is odd, since it works fine.
    Any ideas?

  • Error when trying to connect Airport Express to Base Station

    I came home today and the light was flashing amber on my Express. Tried to re-connect but keep getting this message: "There was an error setting up this wireless device for WDS. Quit Airport Utility and try again." I have, several times and it still won't connect. Got any ideas? My wireless router is the older Apple version flying saucer.
    Thanks....

    Have you tried using a WEP password for your wireless network instead of a WPA one? That fixed it for me.

  • 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 .

  • Apple Airport Express Base Station 10/100BASE-T Ethernet WAN port with AirT

    Hello fellow mac users, I am currently interested in getting the Apple Airport Express Base Station 10/100BASE-T Ethernet WAN port with AirTunes. However I already have a Linksys Wireless G with SpeedBooster router. Will the Airport Express with iTunes work with my router? Or will it work with any router? Thanks!
    P.S. I want to get the Apple Airport Express Base Station 10/100BASE-T Ethernet WAN port with AirTunes
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Yes, it should be possible. Since your iMac is connected via Ethernet to another router, you would have to reconfigure which Network Service you will be using on the iMac to switch between streaming and connecting to the Internet.
    For example, I am assuming that the Built-in Ethernet service is currently at the top of the Port Configurations 0list within System Preferences > Network > Show = Network Port Configurations when your iMac is connected to the other router by Ethernet. You would then need to drag the AirPort item to the top of the list, and then, connect to the AirPort Express to stream.
    The other option to avoid this is to configure the AirPort Express to join the wireless network created by the 2Wire router.

  • Apple AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n - MB321LL/A. How to set it up to my new iMac

    Community:
    How do you set up an
    Apple AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n - MB321LL/A how do you set up on Mac running on OS X 10.9.4?
    Please advise
    Fmsalazar

    Apple did say it was important.
    If the units do not show up in the airport utility then you must set it correctly to link-local.
    Steps for OS X Lion or Mountain Lion
    This can happen if IPv6 has been disabled. To enable IPv6 for your network interface:
    Choose Apple menu () > System Preferences, and then click Network.
    If a lock icon appears in the lower-left corner, click it and enter your admin name and password to unlock the pane.
    Click your network service (Wi-Fi or Ethernet) in the list, and then click Advanced.
    Click the TCP/IP tab.
    Choose Link-local only from the Configure IPv6 pop-up menu.
    Click OK.
    Click Apply.
    AirPort base station not seen or "An unexpected error occurred" appears in AirPort Utility 6.3
    Apple rep says the same.
    Re: Unexpected error when connecting Airport Express A1264 to Airport Utility 6.3.1
    I am searching as I saw it in a thread today where a person had issues. (No contribution from me in the thread but found that was the issue).
    It is kind of a fail safe.. since auto can end up with any setting.. and it will depend on the setting of ipv6 in the Airport Router if it works properly in the computer.. setting it to the correct value is one step in sorting out problems when people get in a mess.
