  • I just bought a mac mini...can i just connect an ethernet cable to the airport extreme and set up the mini through an existing mac

    I just took the mini out of the box and hooked it up to the airport extreme through a direct ethernet cable between the two.  Can i find the mini and set it up through an existing mac that is also hard wired to the network?  Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for your response.. I don't have a monitor nor a wireless keyboard to use on the mac mini...apple salesguy at bb tells me that I can hook up the mini to the ethernet port of my airport extreme and find the mini using finder on my 27 inch mac.
    that my regular mac would see everything on the mini and that i can proceed to set everything on the mini through my regular mac...
    I am trying to purchase the server software from the app store and turn the mini into a server..
    that is what i am attempting to do.

  • Hello, I'm trying to connect my new TiVo XL4 box to my home network via an ethernet cable connection to my Airport Express but the TiVo box is not seeing the network. I have a green light emanating from the Airport Express so it is connected. Plz advise.

    Hello, I'm trying to connect my new TiVo XL4 box to my home network via an ethernet cable connection to my Airport Express but the TiVo box is not seeing the network. I have a green light emanating from the Airport Express so it is connected. Please advise.

    If you have not already done so, I suggest that you temporarily disconnect the Ethernet cable from the AirPort Express that goes to the Tivo box.
    Instead, turn off the wireless on a laptop and connect the laptop to the Ethernet port on the Express. See if you can get an Internet connection on the laptop.
    If you still cannot get an Internet connection on the laptop, try another Ethernet cable that you know is working correctly.
    Post back on your results.

  • Can this be done? Airport extreme connected wireless in extend mode to connect a wireless Mac Pro with an ethernet cable from the extended airport extreme..

    Can this be done? Airport extreme connected wireless in extend mode to connect a wireless Mac Pro with an ethernet cable from the extended airport extreme.

    This will work.....IF....you also have an Apple AirPort router configured to provide your wireless network.
    In other words, you need to have two Apple AirPort routers to extend a wireless network.
    When the AirPort Extreme is configured to "extend" the wireless of the "main" AirPort, it will provide more wireless coverage and the Ethernet ports are enabled, so you could connect your Mac Pro to any of the Ethernet ports and use that as a network and Internet connection.

  • My westel modem (that I rent from my phone provider) quit working with the internet.  My airport extreme seems to be working from the dsl (phone) connection through the westel, then through the ethernet cabled to the airport extreme.  Do I need the modem?

    My westel modem (that I rent from my phone provider) quit working with the internet.  My airport extreme seems to be working from the dsl (phone) connection through the westel, then through the ethernet cabled to the airport extreme.  Do I need the modem?  Is the ethernet route less efficent that going throught the internet connection?  If I don't need the westel modem; how do I make the dsl conection to the pone port in the wall?  Thanks for help on this!

    Ok, so are you saying that your Internet is or isn't working?  Does it work if you plug your computer directly into your computer and bypass the router (make sure you power cycle the modem when you do this)?  If it is working this way, then a new modem isn't going to solve a problem with your Internet not working.  If it is going slow (try running a speedtest) then you need to call your phone company to have them take a look at why your Internet is slow.  If it runs fine this way and then slows back down when you go back through your router there is something else going on.  Try unplugging both the modem and the router, let the modem fully sign back in and connect to the Internet, after it gets signed in, plug your router in, and then after it boots up fully, try running the speedtest again...See if that helps any?  Sometimes it's just an IP conflict that happens when the dynamic IP that is assigned by your Internet Service Provider changes and the change doesn't flow smoothly.

  • HT3728 I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    You can configure the AirPort Expess to "Join a wireless network" and enable the Ethernet port so that Ethernet devices will be able to connect.
    In order to print from the iOS devices, you will need to have an application like Printopia installed on your Mac. The Mac must be active when you want to print.
    More details here: Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
    There is a free trial available for Printopia, so make sure that it will work before you buy the AirPort Express.

  • There is no signal coming from the airport express

    There is no signal coming from my airport express. The light is always amber in color.  It would turn green but only for 1-2 seconds and then back to amber again for a long time.  I'm pretty sure there is a signal problem from the airport express.  What could be the solution in this problem?
    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, the solid amber light is likely a symptom that the Express has experienced an internal component failure.
    Try a Factory Default Reset as follows to see if you can unlock the device.
    Power down the Express for at least 15-20 minutes
    Hold in the reset button and keep holding it in for another 10-12 seconds while you plug the Express back in to power
    Release the reset button
    If you have a slow, blinking amber light after 40-45 seconds, the Express may be OK. If the light stays solid amber after a several tries on the default reset, I'm afraid that it will need to be replaced.

  • HT1515 do you have to do to get internet from the airport express?

  • Bridge an AirPort Express from an Extreme connected to a Motorola DOCSIS 3 cable/modem/gateway via an ethernet cable? Can I connect ethernet to the Express to setup/handshake/coordinate, and then unplug the ethernet cable from the Express?

    In other words, does the AirPort Extreme NEED to be the device connected to the coaxial cable, or can I connect that cable to the Motorola SBG6580 DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem/wireless gateway? (My Internet provider requires DOCSIS 3.0 for speeds above 12 megabits/sec.)
    Will the Airport Extreme "program" the Express via an ethernet cable, and than the cable can be removed?
    The "bridge" or "repeater needs to be quite a distance away from the physically connected cable modem/wireless gateway and the ethernet- connected AirPort Extreme, and we have wall-to-wall carpeting, and the walls and ceilings are off-limits (family politics), so a looooong ethernet cable is out of the question.
    Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
    Thanx!
    P.S. The 802.11 in my house (ground floor, about fifty feet away from the modem; in the living room about 35ft away *****! And Motorola touts this wireless gateway as having amazing coverage (360, I think they call it),but in fairness, this house is old and has a 5 hanset cordless landline and a microwave and a fan, etc., etc., etc......

  • Can i connect my hdvt to an airport express unit using an ethernet cable from the tv to the airport expree, thus joining my wireless network for movie downloads

    i have a 40 pioneer kuro hdtv with ethernet jack.
    i want to connect it to my local airport network. The tv has some kind of "network" capability.
    Could i connect by using an airport express to the tv via an ethernet cable;
    Sounds unlikely. (tv also has a usb port).
    thanks for any advice.

    Thanks for reply.
    I mostly want to get some youtube videos and also to send some photos to this tv.
    would the netgear WNCE2001 allow me then to connect the tv to the local wifi net?

  • Can you connect an ethernet cable to an Airport Express Extension?

    I have an Airport Express that I am using as an extension to my current home wireless network.
    That is successful and I have a green light. I am trying to plug in an ethernet cable to allow an older mac without an airport card to connect to that Airport Express Extension. When I turn off the airport and select Ethernet Cable, I am told that the cable is not connected to the internet. The wireless works fine and I can get full bars in the far part of my house - but I do not get internet when connecting an Ethernet cable.
    Help!
    Thanks in advance

  • Can connect via ethernet cable, have good Airport signal but no connection

    Hey folks,
    Pesky problem. I'm trying to connect to my wireless airport extreme basestation and having problems. Everythings hooked up correctly and if I plug the ethernet cable from the modem directly to the powerbook it works fine. The odd thing is that my computer sees the base station, it has good signal, and it tells me I'm connected to the internet via airport.
    Why then can I not actually acess it? Any thoughts?...it's comcast high-speed in case that matters.
    Cheers,
    Sean

    Sean,
    ---- I was trying to get a link to another similar thread, where one of the experts (I'm not one of them) made some recommendations, but I can't seem to find it.
    ---- Is your Network Preferences selected for Airport as well as ethernet, and is Airport at the top of the list? Anyway, the fact that your direct connection PB to modem is working fine, may be the very thing causing your problem. The modem looks for the PB (MAC address?). So, you can do an hardware reset, or if not then unplug it for a good while (not tooggle the power on & off, but I think I saw someone even recommend overnight). Shutdown the AEBS & PB.
    ---- Then after you powerup the modem & it connects with the ISP (it takes just a short few minutes, you can watch the lights), then power up the airport, then after its connected up to the modem (again, a few minutes, you can watch the lights), bootup the PB.
    ---- I wish that I could have found the other thread for you, as the experts do an extremely better job of this.

  • HT4260 I am planning to extend my network via "roaming" option using an Ethernet cable as the second router is not within range of the primary router. My question is can I use an airport express as the additional router ? My pirimary router is an extreme.

    Under the roaming option mentioned in the KB do both routers have to be the same ? Or can one be an express and the other an extreme ?

    Setup of the AirPort Express is going to be much easier than you might imagine, although we'll go step by step here.
    First, power on the AirPort Express for a few minutes, then hold in the reset button on the Express for 9-10 seconds and release. Allow a full minute for the Express to restart to a slow blinking amber light.
    Connect the Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Express. I assume that you have previously tested the Ethernet cable to make sure that it is working correctly.
    On your Mac, click on the AirPort icon at the top of the screen and wait a few seconds for a listing of New AirPort Base Station. Just below that, click directly on AirPort Express.
    AirPort Setup will open up automatically, take a minute to analyze the network, then announce that the Express will be configured to extend the AirPort Extreme network.
    Enter a device name that you want to use for the Express and click Next
    Now AirPort Utility will confirm that the Express is being configured to extend using Ethernet.
    When you see the message of Setup Complete, click Done
    That's it.  It might surprise you though, to learn that the Express has actually been configured to "create" a wireless network in this type of setup.

  • How can I setup without an ethernet cable?

    Hey guys,
    I just got my Time Capsule... I have a wireless modem existing for internet - ethernet cable from the wall to the modem.
    I'm wondering how I can go about setting up my Time Capsule without an ethernet cable?? I don't have an extra one.  :S
    Any guidance is much appreciated
    Thanks!

    Check the setup manual to verify that Apple does not support a "wireless only" type of configuration of the Time Capsule.
    You will need to purchase an Ethernet cable to connect the Time Capsule to your wireless router. Connect from a LAN <-> port on the wireless router to  the WAN port on the Time Capsule.
    You can use virtually any length cable that you want.

  • Connect to internet via airport extreme via ethernet cable and no airport c

    I just bought a MacBook with Airport Extreme, got it set up today and it works great, got online, etc. However, I have an iMac with no airport card. I can't figure out how to get both computers hooked up on the internet at the same time. The MacBook works only when the ethernet cable in in the LAN slot on the Extreme but won't work through the WAN slot. I have tried hooking up both ethernet cables into the Extreme, just the iMac, and nothing works. I don't need to connect wirelessly through the iMac so I don't want to buy an Airport card if I don't need one. I just don't want to plug and unplug the ethernet cable everytime I want to use the MacBook or the iMac. My modem from Verizon only has one ethernet slot. Any ideas?

    You mean Airport Extreme Base station?
    Here's what you need to do:
    1. Disconnect your Verizon Modem & Airport Extreme
    2. Connect the ethernet cable from the Verizon modem to the WAN of the AE
    3. Connect another ethernet cable from the LAN port of the AE to your iMac
    4. Turn on Verizon Modem
    5. Once all lights on the modem have turned on, turn on the Airport Extreme
    6. On your iMac click on Applications --> Utilities --> Airport Admin Utility
    7. Setup a Wireless network using this or the Airport Setup Assistant, located in the same Utility folder.
    8. After you have created the wireless network, connect to it on your macbook
    If for some strange reason you still can't figure it out, refer to the product manual or check:
