Can I use this as a network access point?

Very interested in this as a way of playing my iTunes music through my amplifier, but as I also need a wireless access point I'm wondering if this will do both jobs.
I already have a wireless network, but after moving the router no longer have access to it from my Xbox or PC. Does anyone know if I can use the AirPort Express as an access point?
What I want to do is connect the PC and Xbox to an old switch I already have, and connect that switch to the AirPort Express, connecting both devices to my wireless network.

I am sure.
From KB 108040, AirPort Express: What is client mode?:...In client mode AirPort Express does not offer itself as a wireless access point or use its Ethernet port....
Wireless Distribution System is another way for AirPort Express to join an existing Wi-Fi network. AirPort Express uses its Ethernet port and can offer its wireless access point in WDS mode, but it requires that your other access points be AirPort Extreme and/or AirPort Express...From KB 108038, AirPort Express frequently asked questions (FAQ):
2. Question: Can AirPort Express act as a bridge?
Answer: AirPort Express can act as a bridge in three different ways:
If you have an existing wired network, it can bridge this network to wireless clients.
If it is set up as a WDS remote or relay station, it can bridge the wireless network to wired clients.
If it is set up as a WDS remote or relay station, it can bridge the wireless network to wireless clients (or "wirelessly extend" the range of the network).

    can I use this as a wireless access point for my network

    umm... use what?
    A Time Capsule? Sure. It's just like many other wireless base stations. It can run in either bridge or route mode - in bridge mode it's just like an access point linking the wired and wireless networks together.

  • Can I do this with a wireless access point?

    When I travel to Mexico on vacation (3-4 four times a year, one of the benefits of being 60+ and retired), I pay $70 for high-speed wireless access in my room.
    In the past I've taken a Magic Jack and a regular phone, plugged the MJ into a USB port on my computer and used it to phone back to the states (keeping in-touch with the kids and grandkids).
    My new Samsung smart phone connects to my wireless network at home and I make/receive call through the Internet (instead of using My Smart Choice prepaid mobile minutes).
    Since the wireless controller in my PC is being used to connect to the wireless network at the Mexico hotel, I can't setup a wireless ad hoc network from it. So, I'm wondering if I can plug a WAP into the Ethernet connection on my PC, set-up a local wireless connection via the WAP device, and then connect my smart phone to the local WAP wireless connection for outgoing and incoming calls?
    If this is possible, can someone please recommend a good WAP device to use?

    Thanks for the input to my question!
    I did find a solution to my issue: my phone has Bluetooth and I connect to PC that way. Once I'm connect to the PC, I can send or receive calls through the wireless network that's attached to the PC. The Bluetooth range isn't as far as I'd like--but it works beautifully well!
    I got to say, Samsung phones are really cool! I loved my fir iphone--but for me the Galaxy sII is a better device (and I bought it used on CL--who says old people don't rock!!)

    I can someone help me please to use this phone in romania
    So the phone is encrypted or locked in england on o2 network

    There is NO solution other than already described
    O2 locked the iPhone as they subsidised the original price
    when sold new
    Therefore ONLY O2 can unlock the iPhone
    it is NOTHING to do with Apple they have no authority
    to unlock an iPhone
    Apple do NOT lock iPhones ,carriers do
    simple no debate
    If you purchased through eBay raise a claim

  • Can I use Apple TV on network without internet connection?

    I'm helping someone who has an Apple TV (version1) and their router and internet connection is down.  We need to use the AppleTV today to stream a video from her mac to the TV connected to the Apple TV for a presentation.  Can we just hook up the Mac and the AppleTV to a switch via Ethernet (or connnect wirelessly to an AirPort Base station) and stream the video without being connected to the internet?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't just use a switch, but you can use a router or wifi access point without access to the internet, but you will need a DHCP server to give each device on the network an IP address.
    You may also be able to connect the Mac and Apple TV directly with an ethernet cable, I've tested this with the Apple TV 1, but not with the Apple TV 2.

  • Using Mac mini as an access point for home network

    Hi
    I'm looking for some help on using my mac mini as an access point on my home network.
    I have a G5 tower which is wired in to my router and acts as a home server. It has all my itunes library, films, etc
    I stream these to various machines in the house, one of which is a mac mini in our living room.
    The mini is connected to the network via powerline adapters meaning the airport is left free.
    So i set up internet sharing on the mini via airport so I can use the machine as an access point for the living room.
    If I connect another machine to the mini via airport, Internet is working fine but for some reason I can't see the any other machines on the network.
    All I see in the sidebar is the mini, not the server.
    I've tried it on both mine and my friends macbook but had no luck.
    Am I doing this the wrong way?
    How would you go about doing this?
    Cheers

    Internet Sharing may not be providing an address via DHCP, It also may not be providing a subnet Mask that can get you to communicate with the other computers on your local Network.
    Take a look at what IP addresses are being used by the various computers on the network. I would expect you have a Router that may be using 192.168.0.1 as its base "private" address, and issuing DHCP Addresses in that range and higher with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, meaning anything with the same three high octets can communicate freely without Router intervention.
    But what addresses are bing used for the Wireless Shared computer(s)? and what subnet mask?

  • I recently bought a new iMac as well as a wireless time capsule and have it connected how can I use this external drive as the location to store all my files for iTunes, or is this even possible?

    New iMac user here, I recently bought a new iMac and Time capsule and have the whole network up and running now. I have connected another external HD to the time capsule as well and have a total of 3 TB of storage connected wireless to my new iMac. My question is can I use this location as the default location for iTunes?  I doubt I am gonna run out of room considering the iMac has 1 TB of storage already, but I'd prefer to keep my movies and music off the Mac to keep it running smoothly. If this is possibly, I'd like to do this with iPhoto as well. 

    I would advise against placing your iTunes library on a Time Capsule.
    The Time Capsule is designed as a backup device and not for wireless streaming of video.
    Before you do anything more, can I suggest you put into place a reliable, redundant backup strategy.
    Unless you are prepared to risk loss of your iTunes library due to a hard drive failure, I would not put iTunes on the Time Capsule.
    Leave your iTunes library on your iMac until such time as your internal drive is full. Backup to Time Capsule using Time Machine and create a clone of your internal iMac HD to your external drive.
    That's my 2 cents worth. Others may have a different opinion.

    I have a limited storage in iPhone so i bought 20g iCloud. how can i use this iCloud storage in my device to store music and photos?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You could sign up for iTunes match and use iCloud photo library with optimisation enabled. The later will keep optimised photos on your device and iTunes match will let you access your whole collection and make room for newer content by removing older unplayed items.

    You can't install Lion over Leopard. To install Lion, a requirement is Snow Leopard. So you can either upgrade to Snow Leopard first or you can make a bootable Lion install disc and use that to wipe your hard drive and install a fresh copy of Lion.
    So to make a disk would require you to purchase Snow Leopard and upgrade to 10.6.8 so you can use the App Store, unless you have access to another computer to download it from with your Apple ID. Remember it is about a 3.4GB download.

  • I purchased a iphone i USA. How can i use this iphone in india with vodafone.

    I Purchased a iPhone 5s in USA. How can I use this phone in India with Vodafone.
    <Edited By Host>

    First, the iPhone would need to be unlocked. That would depend on where you bought it. Next, the North American phone would not work with all of the networks outside of the US. Also, the warranty for the device is only good in the US, so if you have a problem with the phone, you would need to bring it back to the US to an Apple Store. Where did you purchase the phone?
