Express has stopped working with 2Wire WiFi router

I have AT&T U-verse service and used the supplied 2Wire router as the WiFi hub. Because of the other devices in our home, I have to keep the security setting on the network on "WPA-PSK (TKIP) and WPA2-PSK (AES)". Otherwise the devices can't connect.
I have always used an Airport Express joined to the network to attach a USB printer and stream music to a stereo receiver. It has always worked, though it would occasionally mysteriously need to be reset and set up again to work with the network.
Last week the Express stopped working again. This time it will not rejoin the network. After many tries, I have determined that the Express is not broken. It will connect with the network if I turn security off and if I set security on the network and the AX both to "WPA2-PSK (AES)" but if I keep the security setting on ""WPA-PSK (TKIP) and WPA2-PSK (AES)" on the network  it won't connect -- it accepts the settings then flashes amber, stops showing up on Airport Utility at all and has to be reset again. This occurs whether I set choose "WPA/WPA2 PERSONAL" or "WPA PERSONAL" with Airport Utility
As it happens, an AT&T technician was out here today and he told me that AT&T sends updates to its gear, which might explain why the AX gets knocked off the network from time to time. Still, that doesn't explain why I could always fix it before and can't fix it now.
Any thoughts on a possible solution?

Follow-up: I gave up and attached an old Airport Extreme base station to the 2Wire router and turned off the wireless on the 2Wire. Sort of a waste, since I need an extra device to do what the 2Wire used to do alone, but everything works again.

  • HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3

    HP Pavilion external monitor has stopped working with my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with OSX 10.8.3.  When I purchased the monitor a few weeks ago it worked perfectly when computer was in clamshell mode or with lid open. Now external display has stopped working.  When I turn on display it scans for signal but does not find it and then immediately goes into sleep mode.  I am using a DVI connection with the adapter for the mini display plug.  REALLY FRUSTRATING. Any help would be extremely appreciated. 

    Hi lancekatigbak,
    If you're having issues with the display out on your MacBook Pro, you may want to take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the following article:

  • Photoshop Extended CS 4: 32 bit & 64 bit has stopped working with an error 131:4

    Dell XPS 720 Quod Processor 8GB Memory Running Window 7
    Both Photoshop Extended CS 4: 32 bit & 64 bit has stopped working with an error 131:4. which stated to reboot to solve the problem. After several attempts at rebooting the computer, I received the same error message.
    I was in the process of updating all my Adobe software in order to tackle an Adobe Media Encoder problem: when I sent a stream from the time line to be converted to an AVI file from Premiere Pro CS4 to Encoder the window appeared & hung.
    I want to treat the Photoshop problem first. How do I proceed?

    Unable to Re-install Adobe Photoshop cs4
    A few years back my brother bought me a Dell Studio XPS 8100 running Windows 7 pro.
    I have 8 gig's of ram and has a 32 and x64 bit system, right now it is enough for my needs and I can easily spare a gig or two for this program.
    I cannot install this program again. I have used iYogi, Adobe Tech, support and am wondering if it makes any difference whether I install it on a x64 or 32 system?
    Why can't i re-installl the program. I used it a lot and I do miss it.

  • Airport Express has stopped working, no IP-adress

    Airport Express has stopped working. In my Airport tool, I can't see the Airport Express anymore.
    Under network, I can still see the Airport, but it says, that it cant find an IP-Adress.
    It can see my Airport Extreme.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best

    Try resetting the Airport Express.
    If you don't see it in Airport Utility in your Utilities folder, then you would need to reset it...
    Do you have it set to "Join" the Extreme network? or something else?
    See this Apple doc on how to reset your base station.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
    Also, you would not see it in your Network preference panel in the System Preferences.
    You will only see the main network which is your Airport Extreme....
    Unless you have 2 separate networks....
    How many do you have?

    Hello,after the last apdate iOS 7.1.1 my iphone has stop work with the bose dock station. why it is happens?

    Natan turbo hadar,
    I have the same exact problem.
    I put an iPod shuffle on the Bose system, it plays just fine.
    My iPhone 4s works just fine connected to my car stereo.
    My iPhone 4s on the Bose will charge, it "thinks" it's playing, song shows, time line shows it's playing, can pause if I touch the phone's screen.
    The remote for the Bose WILL NOT pause it, forward to next song, etc. It does work with the iPod shuffle.
    So it's not the Bose, it's not connections, it's the iOS 7.1.1
    Everything worked fine before, any one else have suggestions?

  • "Licensing Has Stopped Working" with Mountain Lion & PS Elements

    After installing Mountain Lion Photoshop Elements will not open. IT produces a dialog box that says "Licensing has stopped working - ERROR 6 "  Restarting the computer is no help.
    How do I reenter my license - and WHY am I having to do this?

    Jeff,
    That link calls for deletion of the "FlexNet Publisher" file in the HardDrive>>Library>>Preferences folder. No such file exists in that folder on my 10.8 machine.
    It also calls for downloading and opening the LicenseRecovery111.zip file. I have done that and insise the LicenseRecovery Folder ran the LicenseRecover application. That app opens but appears to be non-responsive.
    Any other avenues?

  • My Canon Pixma iP8500 printer has stopped working with Mavericks

    Hi, my Canon Pixma iP8500 printer has stopped working in the past few days and I made no alterations that could explain why this might happen. I am using OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks on a Mac Pro desktop computer. I can print a test page when selecting it on my Canon Printer Utility from my desktop so it seems that there is contact between the computer and the printer but it will not print from iPhoto, Preview or Mail. When I select Print from any of these nothing happens and there is nothing on the Print List. I have checked the Printers & Scanners in my System Preferences and my Canon iP8500 is listed and highlighted as  Idle Default and Share this printer is ticked. I have tried deleting this printer then adding it but it still will not print. I would appreciate any helpful suggestions bearing in mind that I am fairly elderly and have a limited knowledge of IT and some of the terminology.
    Thank you,
    Colin.

    Hi, might try this...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions.
    Any devices that previously appeared in your Printer List and Fax List will need to be added again after resetting the printing system.

  • Both my Airport Express have stopped working with OSX 10.7.5 Lion.

    I'm going off my head!  Both AE's 802.11n have stopped working, and no longer appear in the Airport Utility
    I installed the Airport Utility 5.6 but still no luck.  I reset the AE's with a 'hard reset' and also tried plugging in an Ethernet Cable, still no joy as both AE's have become 'invisible' to the config utility
    Running 10.7.5 (11G63)
    Anyone managed to get these re-appear?

    UPDATE
    By accident I have solved this.  I previously had two WiFi networks running, the 'prime' one is from a Sky router and the second one from an Apple Time Capsule.  To try and fix poor Sky broadband performance, I switched off the Time Machine to negate any potential issues of DNS clashes.  During this 'no Time Machine' period I plugged in the old Airport Express's one by one, did a hard reset by pressing the reset button with a paperclip on the AE whilst plugged in.  The Airport Express after flashing yellow quickly, then turned a steady yellow for around 2 minutes before started yellow slow flash.  Only then did it appear in the Airport Utility window (I used ver 6.1 without any issue on a Mac running 10.7.5)  BE PATIENT - THE AIRPORT EXPRESS TAKES A WHILE TO APPEAR AND YOU NEED TO RE-SCAN
    When the yellow flash starts, re-scan for 'other Airport Base Stations' using the grey button top right of the utility window.
    I configured one with an ethernet cable, and one over WiFi, both working and the whole job took maybe 10mins each
    I'm using old Airport Express devices 802.11n.
    Have not switched on the Time Machine yet - fingers crossed it does not all fall in a heap again !!!

  • Airport express has stopped working when college switched network to 'N'

    Hi all,
    My university has just switched their wireless to 'N'-band. My airport express ('G') is now upset: not only has airtunes stopped working (I previously had joined it to the dorm wireless network), but I can no longer even access my airport in the Airport Utility (5.3.2).
    I've done a hard reset of my airport express and I still cannot access the device via the airport utility. When I click 'rescan', the device is never found.
    I have noticed, however, the default network "Apple Network 600eab' appearing among my wireless network choices. Unfortunately, Airport never actually lets me join that network.
    Does anyone have any ideas I can try?
    Thanks
    LD

    I've had to go back to firmware 7.4.1 and that seems to work.  Anyone know what is up with 7.5.2?

  • Airport Express has stopped working

    Hi.
    My AE has just stopped working and now can't connect to the network.  I have tried a harware reset and all I get is the amber light and now and again it flashes then turns green and then back to amber.  It looks to me as if the something has damaged the hardware as I cant get it to showup in my airport utility.
    Regards
    Amidabrian

    If you have tried a Factory Default Reset a few times, and the AirPort Express is still acting up, it is likely defective and will need to be replaced.
    Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule FAQ
    If it is out of warranty......and you have the patience.....and want to take a real longshot......carefully saw open the case of the Express along the center seam to open up the device and look for something obvious....like a connector that has come loose, broken wire, etc.
