Can I add an Airport Express into an existing Non Airport Wireless Network?

Hi -
Is there any way I can add an Airport Express into an existing Linksys wireless (802.11g) network?. I would not mind switching completely over to Airport but I want to maintain a hybrid (part wired part wireless) configuration as I have now.
thanks for any assistance!!

Hi skyelaird and welcome to the Discussions

Yes.
You would need to configure the Airport Express to join an existing wireless network (client mode).
In this mode you can share a USB printer and stream AirTunes, however the ethernet port would be inactive.

  • Kindle can't connect to Airport wireless network

    I've read many other discussions, but I haven't found a solution to my problem.  I just bought a 4th generation Wi-Fi only Kindle, but I can't connect it to my Airport wireless network.  I own a 1TB Dual-Band Time Capsule with firmware version 7.6.  It is configured to connect to my DSL model/router using Ethernet, and Connection Sharing is Off (Bridge mode).  I've tried many different wireless settings without any luck.  Currently, the radio mode is set to "Automatic" (802.11a/n - 802.11b/g/n), Radio Channel Selection is "automatic" (149[5 GHz]/10[2.4GHz]), and Wireless Security is turned off.  Originally I was using WPA2 Personal, but I wanted to eliminate security from the possible problems, so I turned it off, but I still can't connect.  In my log I see the following lines several times:
    Dec 21 18:33:21          Severity:5          Disassociated with station f0:a2:25:23:43:dd
    Dec 21 18:33:22          Severity:5          Associated with station f0:a2:25:23:43:dd
    I can successfully connect to my network with a MBP, an iPhone, an iPad, and a Canon wireless printer.  I did have a similar problem with a wireless HP printer, but I thought the problem was with the printer, so I returned it.
    I am able to connect the Kindle to a friend's Linksys wireless network.
    Any suggestions?

    Bridge Mode is probably your problem - at first, I couldn't get my Kindle to connect to my Airport Extreme, which is configured in bridge mode because I have Verizon FIOS internet and have to use the FIOS router.
    However, I found a workaround:
    1. Unplug your Airport router, and enable the wireless on your DSL, cable, or FIOS router (it may be enabled already; I had turned mine off since I didn't see any point in having it broadcast a wireless network that wasn't being used).
    2. Now you should be able to connect from your Kindle - make sure it has the same name and password as the wireless network name you chose for your Airport router
    3. You can now turn your Airport router back on, and because your Kindle will remember the network, it should be able to connect successfully from now on, even if you go back and disable wireless on your DSL/cable/FIOS router.
    Please also tell Amazon about this problem! All my other wifi-enabled devices have no trouble connecting to my network - the Kindle clearly has a bug that makes it handle routers running in bridge mode incorrectly.

  • Can I activate the ethernet ports (routing) of Time Capsule "joining" an existing non-Apple wireless network ?

    Hello,
    I have a DSL modem that is also a WIFI router as my main WIFI network from room A. In room B, I have a TC wirelessly joining the existing WIFI network (not creating a new one). That works fine, I have one SSID, and I can wirelessly access the TC disks and backup my Mac on my TC.
    Now, I would like to connect a wired device (with on WIFI) to the ethernet port of my TC. Unfortunately, the ethernet ports of the TC don't seem to be "activated" as they do not have internet on them.
    More precisely, I'd like to connect a GE Cordless Skype Phone Model# 31591 (http://www.gephones.com/products/skype/dect-6-0-expandable-digital-cordless-phon e-with-skypetm.html) that connects to a router via Ethernet. I'm aware that I could simply connect it to the DLS router, but that's not what I want... Is there any way to activate the ethernet ports of the TC while in "join" mode ? Or do I really have to buy a Airport Express to create my main network and then extend it ?!?

    Thanks, the reason why I asked again, is because you told me to start another thread with the specifics of the device I want to connect, so I did
    Not a big deal, and it is easy to become confused.....but to be clear about this  
    Your question.....
    is there a way I can connect my Bluray player to the TC ?
    My Answer.....
    Please start a new post for that. Tell us the make and model number of the player and whether you plan to connect using wireless or Ethernet.
    so I tried to creat the main WIFI network with a first-generation Airport Express M9470LL/A (802.11b/g, no "draft N" or "n" support) and the TC wouldn't extend it either, is it too old/not supported
    Unfortunately, the "extend" setup will only work with "n" devices.  The older Express does not have a setting to "Allow this network to be extended", so the Time Capsule cannot pick up the signal.
    I'm not sure what else to suggest other than what I already have.  I'm assuming that you do not want to buy another new Airport Express.

    Best way for the first set up is to connect the Express via LAN cable to a computer.
    Then enter the setup of the express and choose "Join a existing network"
    After the setup is done, remove cable and you will see the Express in the Airport Utility

  • Use my Airport Express to connect my PC to my non-aiport wireless network??

  • Airport Express stopped showing up on the wireless network

    Airport Express stopped showing up on the wireless network, and now I can't stream music from my iMac or iPhone through the AE as I used to. I now have a new adsl modem, but it doesn't help. The AE has a wireless connection to the modem. I've used Airport Utility to setup the AE again, no help. I also updated to Maverick but it didn't help. Any ideas?

    By "I can't reset it" do you mean you tried both the "hard" and "factory default" resets on your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) and still were not able to see it from iTunes? ...and if so, were you able to connect to it directly, using an Ethernet cable, to configure it using the AirPort Admin Utility?

  • Can I add multiple linked documents to an existing project?

    Can I add multiple linked documents to an existing project without breaking the project?
    The project I'm working on is due to go live in just a little over a month. I've recently acquired some training materials that contain information that needs to be merged into the help file. The problem is that there is not enough time to do it, get it reviewed, and so on.
    So I had this idea of linking to the Word docs (there are 3) for now, then cleaning things up as we go along.
    Is that a stupid idea this late in the game?
    Would it be better to create a separate help file with just those docs and then merge the projects into a master project?
    I am using RoboHelp 9 and Word 2010.

    I don't think the idea in itself is silly but I think there might be a nicer solution.
    Link the documents to a new project. How is described on my site. Alternatively import them.
    Once you have got the topics looking how you want, then import them into your main project. You then have the topics ready to edit later on but for now they can go as they are.
    Backup your main project before you start the import so that you can backtrack if you want to.
    The TOC will not come in automatically this way but you'll likely want to add the new stuff manually anyway. Alternatively you can import the TOC and then append it.

    I have just acquired an iMac desktop (about 4 years old). I want to connect to my Apple airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network and don't want to jeopardize what already works well. I am not all that computer literate.

    How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it.
    Read the user manual that came w/your Airport router or you can cross-post in one of the  AirPort Forums for instructions. 

  • Can we add a new attachment to an existing SC from any other custom page in SoCo PO View

    Hi Experts,
    Need your expert advice on the below requirement.
    We have created a custom view in SoCo PO page. There we have a New custom view called Notes&attachement.which contains same value from Notes & attachment of Shopping Cart.
    We are updating existing Notes of SC by FM 'bbp_pd_sc_update' and same is reflected in SC of same item guid & same header guid.
    Similarly trying to add a new Attachment to already existing attachment. New attachment is reflected in custom page and the describe link is working perfectly. but if come out of SoCo page , lets say in SC the new added attachment is shown but display_url,phio_size etc are not stored properly in DB.
    in bbp_pd transaction every thing looks same for new and existing attachment. we are using same FM 'BBP_PD_SC_UPDATE' by passing new internal table of attachment in import statement. Even 'BBP_PROC_DOC_UPADTE' has same result that is attachment is partially updated.
    Suppose, SC has one attachment at the time of creation. then adding a new attachment in custom view of SoCo PO page then every thing works fine in SoCo PO page but out of that SoCo PO or in SC the newly added attachment is not properly updated.
    I have added mime_type,phio_size,disp_url,file_name,file_ext,ev_content of new attachment in existing attachment internal table and calling above FM for update.
    Can we  add new attachment outside SC to existing SC ? if yes , then how?
    Thanks,
