Can someone recommend a powerline adapter that works w/ Airport Express/AirPlay?

I recently purchased the Netgear Powerline 500 Nano PassThru Dual Port (XAVB5602-100NAS) and it works fine when I connect it to another computer in my house, but when I connect it to my 1st Gen airport express to use AirPlay through my stereo receiver the connection fails and it disconnects my internet connection over my entire network. Any suggestions? I'm trying to "hardwire" my network to my stereo because i'm getting frequent disruptions running it purely via wifi.

Let's start over, please, working from the cable modem outward.
It sounds like Express A is working fine right now with the cable modem Ethernet cable connected to the WAN port on the Express A. Test to confirm that the wireless is working on this Express.
Plug one powerline adapter into an AC socket near the location of Express A. Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN port on Express A to the Ethernet port on the powerline adapter.
Plug the other powerline adapter into an AC socket near the location where B will be located.
Test to make sure that the Ethernet powerline adapters are working correctly.
To do this, temporarily turn off the wireless on a laptop and connect the laptop directly to the powerline adapter near the location of Express B using an Ethernet cable.
See if you can get an Internet connection on the laptop this way. If you can, then that confirms that both powerline adapters are functioning correctly. If you cannot get an Internet connection this way, more troubleshooting will be needed before we can proceed with the installation of Express B.
Post back on your progress. We'll need to know what operating system you arre using on your Mac or PC to be able to provide instructions to configure Express B.
If you have a Mac, but do not know what operating system it is running, click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen. Click About This Mac, then look for the OS X Version number and post back with that info.

  • Can someone recommend a NAS device that works well with Macs?

    I need to have a NAS (network attached storage) device that can be freely accessed by windows and mac computers. I rashly purchased an HP Mediavault; it was only $300 and has 2 500GB drives that I configured as raid-1 for safety. however if I load up a folder with 4000 files in it and browse to that directory, the mac finder thinks about this for say 30 seconds before it lists the files. The Windows machine can view the files in perhaps 4 seconds. I know that Macs have a slow file system but watching the little light blink on the NAS box and waiting so long is getting real annoying. Has anyone found a box that works well with macs and has good performance? These devices are so cheap now they must have crappy processors and stupid firmware. Perhaps someone can recommend a model that has some snap. I also need remote access via the web, and the insane HP software can only upload single files, can't upload a folder, which when you are working with 30,000 files like I am is no fun at all!

    It's not really the brand as it is available printer drivers. Just be sure you verify that there is an available OS X printer driver.
    OS X- Printer and scanner software available for download
    Check the manufacturer's website for available printer drivers for any model in which you are interested.

  • Speakers that work with airport express?

    Hello all
    Can anyone recommend small wall mounted speakers that work with airport express?
    Thanks in advance
    Adam

    I would recommend just about anything from either Bose or Audioengine that are self-powered and provide either analog or digital audio inputs. One example would be the Audioengine A2+ speakers.

  • Does Apple list available printers that work with AirPort Express?

    Just bought an AirPort Express hoping that I could print wirelessly with my HP 1350 All-in-One, and it won't work. Found out after the fact that my printer doesn't support USB wireless printing.
    I'm looking for a basic color printer to work with AirPort Express for wireless printing by other family members, and I'll continue to use my HP 1350 with USB for scanning and OCR functions.
    Does Apple provide a list of recommended printers that will work with AirPort Express?

    PowerBook G4 1.5 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   1 GB DDR SDRAM

    No Apple doesn't any more.
    I have been maintaining a community created list.
    http://tech.ifelix.net/1013.html
    This is an unofficial list of USB printers which are are compatible with the AirPort Extreme Base Station and Airport Express. Printers in bold have been added to the original list that Apple provided.
    Printers in dark red are in fact the only printers I have personally tested.
    Please also note that due to changes in the firmware of both the Airport Extreme base station and the introduction of the Airport Express some printers which are in this list may no longer in fact be compatible.

  • Printers that work with Airport Express

    I am experiencing problems getting my lexmark p4350 printer to work wirelessly with Airport Express.
    Can anybody tell me of any printer,multifunction device,laser printer that will work with AEX?

    MACMV, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Be aware that ONLY the printing feature of a multifunction device will be usable when connected to the USB port on the AirPort Express (AX).

  • Can anyone recommend a Discussion forum that works with SSO?

    Hey,
    For a medium sized customer we are in the process of trying to find a discussion forum that they can use.
    I was wondering if anyone have any other discussion forums, free or not, that they have implemented and works good with SSO and access restrictions?
    We need to implement access restriction based on oracle application server user groups, and have SSO sign you in both to the discussion forum, and to the portal in general.
    Grateful for any answers,
    Sayeeas

    Hi MHaddox
    And welcome to apple discussions. LaCie is actually one of the better S-Drives for mac in terms of an external burner (at least from reading this forum). However, I haven't seen too much posted in terms of the Lightscribe feature itself. Perhaps one or more of these links will help (if not just come on back):

  • Can someone please find me one that works with iOS 4 iTunes?

    traducción del español al inglés
    I need a itunes work with IOS 4, I have an iBook G4, 256 MB RAM,
    Mac OS X 10.4.11 I need a 10.1 or higher iTunes thing is I know over 10 people with
    iPhones and I happen to games and applications
    -Thank You!
    -greegtins from dominican republic!

    In order to run OS 10.5  on your ibook G4 you will also need to increase your RAM from 256MB to the minimum required by 10.5 but it is best to take it to the maximum.  Your computer will also need to have a 867MHz processor or greater (but there are ways to get around this) in order for Leopard to install..

  • I am using MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8. I need a compatible CD/DVD burner. Can someone recommend one?

    Can someone recommend a compatible CD/DVD burner for a MacBook Pro? I have returned two burners, so far, that were not compatible,.

    True to the extent that out of the box they indeed will not work with Macs other than Airs and Retinas.  However a minor modification WILL make them compatible with other Macs.  Here are the instructions:

  • Can someone recommend a replacement hard drive for my June 2009 17"MBP?

    I need at least 750GB. My current HD is 500GB but I only have 90GB remaining as I have a lot of videos stored on the machine. Can someone recommend a HD that has at least 750GB of space and performs well with a 17"MBP?

    If you are expecting to copy commercial, theatrical DVDs to any hard drive, DVDs are copy protected and you will find that no computer will let you copy copy-protected commercial DVDs.
    If your movies are purchased downloads from other sources like iTunes or Ultraviolet digital copies, then you will be able to make a limited number of copies for backup and storage onto an external hard drive
    There are ways to overcome this issue, but we are not allowed to discuss anything about DVDs that can break that copy protection.
    So, no one in these forums will be able to help you with that issue.
    You will have to do your own Internet searches for your own solutions to this issue.

  • Is there a way to get the calculator from the dashboard to appear along with other programs?  Can anyone recommend a calculator which will work as a stand alone app?

    AS it stands now, in order to use the calculator that comes with the Dashboard, you cannot read from a list of numbers in, lets say, word or excel. The dashboard is full screen and nothing can stand along side it. Is there a way to get the calculator from the dashboard to appear along with other programs?  Can anyone recommend a calculator which will work as a stand alone app?

    there is one, just search with spotlight "Calculator".
    It works great!
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Bill I noticed that list you posted mainly shows devices that require purchasing 3rd party drivers from companies such as ioxperts.
    If you use a device that has ralink chipset you can use their drivers free of charge.

  • Is there such a thing as a USB WIFI adapter that works with OS X 10.9?

    Is there such a thing as a USB WIFI adapter that works with OS X 10.9? I have tried 3 different models, none of which were compatible. The built-in WIFI card in a 2012 Mac Pro is absolutely crap (0/10 on the performance scale). Any recommendations?

    Hey everyone, yes I have installed the drivers properly. I've used an ASUS, Bolse, and EDIMAX adapter. Some had a 10.8 driver, some had 10.9. After reaching out to customer support for each and every one of these companies for help, and through multiple returns, I have not gotten anywhere with any of the drivers or products.
    It's getting ridiculously hard to stay an Apple customer when the quality of their products are getting worse and worse, which leaves me no choice but to go to third parties to replace the faulty hardware.
    And honestly I'm just sick of calling India every day to get my issues resolved.

  • Can someone point me to a small working example using wait()

    Or is wait() what I want to use?
    I need to have my app go to sleep for some period of time, say ten or fifteen minutes, and hide its window during that time. Then after that ten minutes it opens its window back up.
    I've looked all over Google and I can't find any code samples that a newbie could make sense of. Can anyone point me to a sample?
    I wrote what I thought, intuitively, was the way to do it, but I am getting some cryptic message on the "wait()" about "java.lang.IllegalMonitorStateException" which I looked up, but the "explanation" makes even less sense than the raw message. :(
      public void runLoop() {
        getPrefs();
        while (true) {
          ... do stuff ...
          try {
            wait(1000*timeOut);
          } catch ( InterruptedException ie )  {
            ... do stuff ...
      }thanks for any guidance.

    Can someone PLEASE point me to a working example?
    I use Java only very rarely, and only when forced to, and I am not an expert. Frankly, in spite of being expert in a dozen other languages I am COMPLETELY INCOMPETENT in Java. I'm just trying to get this project done and out of my hair so I can safely forget all about Java for the next year or two. I'd give the project to someone else, but every other coder in the shop refuses to go anywhere near Java.
    If I can get this one thing working I can call the project done and be out of here.
    I have a working ap that just needs to close its own window when a button is clicked, for some (user specified) period of time like 10 or 15 minutes, and then reopen its window after that period of time. It is intuitively obvious that I should be able to use timer methods, or sleep() , or wait(), but I have not been able to get any of those to work, and the error messages are more cryptic than ancient Sumerian cuneiform.
    I've Googled for a working example, but haven't found anything that I can figure out. The examples I've found presuppose far more expertise than I posses, and have far too many pieces missing. Can anyone just point me to a complete example of an ap that sleeps for some period of time and then wakes up again?
    I would really, really appreciate the help, and once I've finished this project I promise I won't ever bother you again. Really.
