Can i connect a modem to airport express

Can i connect amodem to airport express...?

Sorry, but no adapter will make up for the fact that the AirPort Express...or any other Apple router....will not work with a USB modem.
You will need something like this:

Make sure that your service is supported before you buy.

  • Can't connect (wireless) to my Airport Express anymore with iBook, iPad or iPhone.

    Can't connect (wireless) to my Airport Express anymore with iBook, iPad or iPhone. It still recognizes the printer on the iBook (bonjour), but not on my Windows notebook (work). The only device that still connects via wireless is the PlayStation 3.

    The latest firmupdate solved the issue.

  • Can I connect an A1084 model Airport Express using current version of Airport Utility

    Can I connect an A1084 model Airport Express using current version of Airport Utility?

    You will need an older 5.x version of AirPort Utility to be able to administer the older AirPort Express.  That would mean that you need to have....or be able to borrow for 10-15 minutes......a Mac running Leopard (10.5.x), Snow Leopard (10.6.x), or a PC with AirPort Utility installed on the device.

  • Connecting wireless modem and airport express

    I currently run internet with an old Motoirola Sideboard cable modem and Airport Express - previous version. All runs well. Now my Optus provider has upgraded my service with a Premium account for higher speed. They have also given me a free wi fi Cisco modem - DPQ3925. How can I replace my old Motorola modem and still maintain Air play etc with my new modem using Airport Express. I need to know exactly wire per wire help - please, if possible - Thanks

    Hi - I have a similar issue.
    I have a new macbook pro, ATV (3rd Gen) and AXn (purely for Airplay of itunes).
    All three are wirelessly connected to my HG556a Huawei WiFi Router.
    The Macbook pro and ATV work fine and can see each other for airplay mirroring and itunes.
    The AX connects and comes up in Airport Utility (AU) and itunes shortly after you turn it on, but if you either dont use it or stop using it and switch to ATV or whatever it dissapears from itunes and AU says it cant find it. Randomly the light on the AX stays green the whole time.
    I have to switch the AX off and on to get it back working again (i.e. itunes and AU can see it).
    Following other forum posts I've set the AX up by hard connecting it to my router, setting a static iP and reserving ports 5353 and 3689 to that address. I've also turned off ipv6 or whatever using the networksettings Terminal code string. I have also repaired permissions with disk utility!
    It still dissapears from available options in iTunes and AU. ideas?

  • Can't connect to internet through Airport Express anymore

    Suddenly, my PowerBook can't connect to the internet through Airport Express. Monday late afternoon--everything was fine. Put it in sleep, come back a few hours later, can't connect.
    Thing is, Airport/wireless is working. Can stream audio to my home stereo.
    And the DSL/modem are working. If I connect the machine via ethernet directly, I'm online.
    Saw that some other users began having problems with USB/printer connections Monday. Could my problem be related?
    What gives?
    Any ideas?

    Hello mnkyby. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    It sounds like your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) in not getting a proper IP address from your modem.
    Try this ...
    o Connect to the AX's wireless network, and then, run the AirPort Admin Utility.
    o Go to the Internet tab.
    o Note the value for IP address. (Note: Do not list it here on the forum, just note what it is.)
    o Is the IP address what you would expect from your ISP or is it something like: 196.254.x.x?
    If the latter, try the following ...
    Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
    o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)
    If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
    Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
    o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
    o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
    o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)

  • Can't connect to an extended Airport Express?

    My network is set up in the following way (see photo) 1 Time Capsule + 2 Airport Express to extend the network.
    No computers or devices can connect to the Airport Express named "AE02"? They all ONLY connect to the middle Airport Express called "AE01" even though they are like 20 cm from AE02??
    What am I doing wrong? Anyone else has this problem?
    Thanks

    Thanks, Huge bummer... How come the Airport Expresses connect that way if not allowed?! 
    I found the answer just like 'Tesserax' pointed out.

  • I can't connect Slingbox Solo to Airport Express

    my slingbox solo is unable to connect to my airport express. I have the following hardware:
    *Airport Extreme Base Station (in my office)
    *Airport Express (in my living room) that i'm using to extend my network-- I currently have my stereo connected to this device, so I can play through itunes, and it works perfectly fine
    *Slingbox Solo
    I'm trying connect my slingbox solo to my airport express, through the ethernet port, but it won't recognize the network. Is there additional set up required with regards to the network to make this functional?
    Would appreciate any direction....

    The wireless security setting that the Actiontec modem/router is using may be different...and not compatible....than the setting that the Comcast product was using.
    If you think that might the case, and you have the time to troubleshoot......
    Temporarily, turn off the wireless security on the Actiontec modem/router
    Reset an AirPort Express back to default settings, then see if it will connect using no security and allow an Internet connection when you do the Ethernet port test in the post above again.
    If the AirPort Express cannot connect correctly using no security on the wireless network.....then it is a no brainer to know that it will never connect when security is enabled.  So, if the AirPort will not connect using no security, you may have an incompatibility issue between the Actiontec and Apple products.
    However, if the AirPort Express connects OK with no security, then this tells you that you will need to use a different setting for security on the Actiontec...the same that the Comcast router was using before.....so the Express will have a better chance of connecting.
    That setting would be something like WPA/WPA2 Personal, or the same setting stated another way would be WPA-PSK-TKIP.

  • Can connect HP3920 to PCs but can't connect to Mac using AirPort Express...

    Yes, this is my problem, almost unbelievable!!!
    I have a HP Deskjet 3920 attached on an AirPort Express and I did add it in my two PCs (one XP and another Vista) using Bonjour for Windows but no way to add it in my MacBook (Leopard).
    I tried everything but apparently there is no way to do that... I just want to know why and what do I need to look for when choosing a printer...
    Regards,
    Alex

    Solved.
    I had likely the same problem. It was solved by replacing the home router internal connections with a real switch.
    Many home routers will not properly multicast the required Airplay/Bonjour multicasts.  Netgear and D-Link for instance does not work, although some ASUS routers work if you turn off IGMP snooping and fiddle with the firewall, but only with some firmware, so it is very iffy.
    So, in my case, I connect Internet modem <-> router <-> switch <-> access points <-> devices
    Works without any problem. Also the wired devices connect to the switch.
    Do not connect any Airplay devices to the router!

  • Can't connect HP laptop with Airport Express

    My gov't agency has just allowed employees to connect to its intranet through wireless connections.  I have an Airport Express which I use for my MacBook Pro, iPhone and iPad.  No problems.  The work computer is an HP laptop running Windows.  I contacted our tech support and they didn't know what to do and suggested that it may be an Apple problem and that the AirPort will not connect to non-Apple devices.  Is this true?  Do I need to buy a new wireless router?  Anyone with any suggestions on what I can do to get the AirPort to work? 
    Thanks in advance.

    All wireless routers must adhere to the same standards for wireless networks, so there is nothing unique about the wireless network that the AirPort Express is creating. Visiting relatives have no trouble connecting their PCs to the Apple wireless network here at the house.
    Chances are, the Windows Firewall or anti-virus applicaton on the HP may be blocking the attempted connection as a security measure.
    As a last resort, you could also try reducing the security level on the AirPort Express in case the HP is not able to connect to the most secure wireless networks.
    To do this from your MacBook.....
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab located below the row of icons
    Change the Security setting to WPA/WPA2 Personal
    Click Update at the lower right and wait 40-45 seconds for the Express to restart

  • Can't connect my laptop to airport express

    THANK YOU

    I am following this as I have a friend who is having the same issue and is running XP Home with SP3. He is on an Acer Aspire 3620. I keep telling him to just go and buy a Mac, but he says he would rather stay offline....LOLOL...(he's been offline for a month now) Anyway... He lives too far away for me to go and help, but everything I have advised him to do has failed. So I'm waiting to see who comes up with an answer here... I am about to tell him to just re-build (re-install windows) his PC.

  • Can't connect from iphone to airport express

    Plugged airport express into wall outlet. Blinking yellow light. Tried to connect to airport express through iphone. Iphone says "cannot be set up by this"

    If it's an older 802.11b/g router you can't use the AirPort Utility on iPhone to configure it. Use the AirPort utility for Mac or Windows. You have many more configuration options using the desktop software as well. The utility on the iPhone is very basic.

  • ITunes can't connect to my new Airport Express even when light is green and see it with Airport utility. Please help!

    Hi,
    I'm using iTunes with my iMac and like listen the my music collection in my Hi-Fi which is 20 m far from the Mac. Because of the distance in my flat and other obstacles I'm using a power line. I installed the Airport Express through the Utility and no problems: Airport light is green and configured. iTunes air see it but it can't connect to it.
    I made several resets, plugged and unplugged the power and no change, but Airport light is always green, see it in iTunes and the Utility.
    This is driving my crazy!
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks

    Hi Jim,
    Thanks for reacting to my question.
    Yes, I did reboot the router, unplugged and replugged the Airport Express with ro result .... iTunes cannot connect to the Airport Express. I'm using power line to carry Ethernet because between my Mac and AE there are about 20 meters, but problems started since I updated AE version to version 3 ...
    It is also non sense because the Utility sees it and then suddenly disappears ! but light remians green ...
    I think there might be something wrong with the new firmware versions ...

  • Can i connect USB hub to airport express

    can i connect USB hub to my airport express & sharing 2 or more printer with one airport express ?!!

    It works for me, but I cannot predict if it will for you.
    Be sure to try a powered USB that has its own power supply.

  • Can i connect external HD to Airport Express' USB port

    and can connect a USB hub and use an external HD and a printer at the same time?

    and can connect a USB hub and use an external HD and a printer at the same time?
    No. The USB port on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) will only support a single USB printer.

  • I can not connect to an old Airport Express

    I don't have the original set up disk and cannot find the set up asst.

    Do you not remember the password to the AirPort express or are you having just one computer that won't connect to it or something.  A little more detail can go a long way in helping us help you
