Does 2012 airport express support MIMO?

Does 2012 airport express support MIMO? if not, will it slow the internat speed with ipad air?

Welcome,
Probably not, but Apple have stated recently that MIMO is build in to the new WiFi kit, see:

You may need to upgrade to a new Airport.

  • Does the Airport Express support the DHCP BROADCAST flag

    In trying to connect a vista laptop to an existing Airport Express Network and the internet, went ot MS Help and found an article saying Vista is set with a 0 (Zero) in the Registry (whatever that is).The comment is -
    A value of 0 disables this registry entry. You can use this registry entry to prevent Windows Vista from using the DHCP BROADCAST flag. After you set this registry entry, Windows Vista never uses the DHCP BROADCAST flag.
    Can someone who doesnt type in UNIX or DOS tell me what might work and if this even applies. I am not inclined to do the following -
    Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit in the Programs list.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. 
    Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces \{GUID}
    In this registry path, click the (GUID) subkey that corresponds to the network adapter that is connected to the network.
    On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value.
    In the New Value #1 box, type DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle, and then press ENTER.
    Right-click DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle, and then click Modify.
    In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.
    Close Registry Editor.
    Hard wired to the Cable Modem the computer can connect to the internet without any of this. What in the Airport Express could be blocking this computer?

    Sorry, none of the Apple products support this.

  • Does iTunes/Airport Express support speaker-specific volume control?

    Hi there,
    So say I have two Airport Expresses, one in the living room with speakers and another one in the bathroom with speakers. Can I setup the volume in the bathroom to be lower?
    Thanks.

    You can do this using Airfoil at http://rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/

  • What does Airport Express Support

    I have been researching the airport express and i have heard that people have connected their xbox to it and of course the printer and stereo, but I would also like to plug in a hard drive with a powered usb hub. Does anyone have a setup like this or any advise?

    The +*Airport Express*+ supports a printer, but not a disk: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB321LL/A/AirPort-Express-AirTunes?fnode=MTY1N DA0Mg&mco=MTA4NTc4MTE
    You may want the +*Airport Extreme,+* which supports a printer and/or external HDs (but not Time Machine backups): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC340LL/A/AirPort-Extreme?fnode=MTY1NDA0Mg&mco =MTMzNzU2NDk

  • Does Airport Express support MAC spoofing?

    I'm using Comcast, Seattle which requires that I use a particular MAC address to connect to their network. In order to do this, I will need to get a router that supports MAC spoofing (i.e. setting AE to pretend to have another MAC address). Is this possible?

    Sorry, but no. None of Apple's Base Stations, nor the Airport Express, support MAC address cloning on the WAN port.
    If Comcast's system doesn't automatically re-register a new connection by power cycling the modem (as many systems do), certainly it should be possible for Comcast to manually register the MAC address of a new device cabled to their modem?

  • Why does my airport express keep cutting out?

    Why does my airport express keep cutting out?

    I have a 1st gen Airport Express and use it to stream music from my PC, iPhone 4, iPad and iPod Touch. My Airport Express is connected to a Teac UD-H01 DAC via an optical cable which is connected to an amp and speakers. I had no problems at all with this set up until I upgraded the Airport Express firmware to 7.6.3. The sound then started to drop out frequently. To cut a long story short after various testing, the problem had to be the Airport Express. I called Apple support but they were not much help and couldn't fix the problem and said they would speak to engineering and phone back. While I was waiting I decided to have another go to find the problem and opened the airport utility and saw that there was an option to downgrade the firmware. At this point I realised that the problems started about the same time that I upgraded the firmware to 7.6.3 but didn't think at the time that Apple would release a firmware that didn't work. Anyway I downgraded to 7.6.1 and hey presto, everything worked again. A couple of days ago I noticed that firmware 7.6.4 was available and thought I'd give it a go, not good - same problem as 7.6.3. I've downgraded to 7.6.1 again and all is well. Hope this helps.

  • Does the Airport express work with apple TV?

    does the airport express base station work with apple tv and connected devices, like the same way it would over a wi-fi router?

    Yes. The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is a Wi-Fi router and supports the Apple TV for connectivity.

  • (2012) AirPort Express disapears off network

    So I have one of the new Apple TV style AirPort Express's and it's only purpose is to stream music. Unfortunately everytime something is played from a computer it completely drops off the network. (Signal strength is about 74% before dropping)
    My routers status page and Airport Utility show no connection from the AE whatsoever, yet the AE status LED stays Green.  The only way to get it back up is to pull the plug.
    The most annoying part of this is I have 3 Apple TV's that work perfectly, all the time! Suggestions are very welcome.
    (Note that I've already tried disabling IPv6 on the Mac)
    Hardware:
    Asus RT-N16 w/ DD-WRT build 14929
    2012 AirPort Express w/ Firmware 7.6.2
    2012 MacBook Air w/ OS X 10.8.1
    AirPort Info:
    Wireless Mode: Join a Wireless Network
    Routing: Bridged
    SNR: 54; -34 Signal, -88 Noise (as reported from Router)
    Assigned IPv4: Static
    IPv6 Mode: Local-Link Only
    AirPlay: No password set
    Router Info:
    Network Mode: NG-Mixed, 2.4GHz, 20MHz channels
    Encryption: WPA2-PSK (AES)
    ACK Timing: 100 meters
    Beacon: 100ms
    CTS Protection: Disabled
    Preamble: Short
    Shortslot: Short
    SPI Firewall On: Set to filter Multicast & Port 113 (IDENT)
    VPN Passthrough: Disabled
    UPnP: Enabled
    TCP timeout: 360 Seconds
    UDP timeout: 120 Seconds
    DHCP Lease: 720 Minutes (Not that this matters with a Static IP)

    Update:
    Tried rebooting the router multiple times, doing a factory reset and all 3 primary 2.4GHz channels. Then I downloaded the pervious version of AirPort Utility (AU 6.x is missing logging) to check the logs but when the AE restarts the logs get cleared.
    Also when the dam thing dies it takes the entire network with it for about 45 seconds; the link speed on the router drops from 144Mbps to <1.

  • Why does my Airport Express say "self assigned IP address"?  No IP address for the ethernet, and it is not connecting to my cable router any longer...

    Why does my Airport Express say "self assigned IP address"?  No IP address for the ethernet, and it is not connecting to my cable router any longer...

    Some cable providers.....like mine, a well known company......seem to take anywhere from a few moments to sometimes up to 30 minutes to allow their equipment back at the cable company to fully reset and issue a new fresh connection.
    So, it would not hurt to leave things powered down for 15-20 minutes or more when you perform the reset that John Galt suggests.

  • I just purchased Apple TV AND AIRPORT EXPRESS. I am questioning if  I need it when I already have a Netgear Powerline AV 200 Adapter Kit XAVB2001. Does the Airport Express do the same thing?

    I just purchased Apple TV AND AIRPORT EXPRESS. I am questioning if  I need it when I already have a Netgear Powerline AV 200 Adapter Kit XAVB2001. Does the Airport Express do the same thing?

    Thank you so much.  Any specifics I should know about prior to connecting? The goal is to watch  Netflix from my iPad or iPhone 5 on my tv (located in different room from where Comcast internet modem is hard wired to main computer in house).  Movies would depend on wireless transmission to a smart tv not connected to modem.

  • Does Final Cut Express support ProRes 1080p?

    Does Final Cut Express support ProRes 1080p?

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    ProRes codecs was introduced with Final Cut Studio 2.
    You can't create a ProRes sequence in FCE, but if you've installed the +Apple ProRes QuickTime Decoder 1.0 for Mac+ you will be able to import ProRes footage, but rendering or conversion will be needed.

  • How much electricity does an Airport Express use (approximately)?

    How much electricity does an Airport Express 802.11n use (approximately)?
    Is turning it off at night to save money a good idea or a bad idea?

    That's exactly the data I needed to know.  Thank you very much!
    I was concerned because the Express is always quite warm, which sometimes can mean big energy bills.......

    I've just measured it using a digital wattmeter, and it draws 4 watts when idle. This means about 3 kWh/month, or 0.60 €/month (at my current 0.20 € / kWh), so it is not the culprit of my huge energy bill...
    Surely it is not worth the hassle of unplugging it everyday, with the accelerated ageing it causes to the device.

  • Does my Airport Express need to be hardwired to my modem?

    My Imac and modem are in my basement.  I have an airport express in my garage so i can play music through Airplay.  Does the airport express need to be connected to my modem with an ethernet cable, or can it just connect to my wifi network to enable Airplay?

    See this article, AirPort Utility 6.x: Set up a bridge or AirPort Express: How to join an existing Wi-Fi network in client mode , about configuring the AEX. Be sure to have your Airport enabled on the computer.
    I'm not sure how easy this will be when using a non-Apple router.
