Help needed in configuring AirPort Express for Warcraft!

Will someone talk me through how to configure my AirPort Express so that I am able to play Warcraft? The downloader is telling me that I'm behind a firewall, however I have configured my Firewalls on my computer to allow Warcraft, and it's still not really working.
I'm not the most tech-savvy, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Duane and others.
This is a very interesting discussion group with a lot of AX users having problems for one reason or another. The main frustration is with, at least for me, the intermittent functionality. As opposed to my wireless laptop, which connects with the network each and every time I turn it on, the AX is good about 75% of the time. And in turn, if iTunes or the Airport Utility can't see the AX there's absolutely nothing you can do to get it to, short of rebooting the laptop, restarting iTunes, etc.
My next plan is to move AX rather close to the wireless router to ascertain if signal strength is the issue.
And I have 'one' last question, are there people out there that have 100% success all the time using AX, especially for streaming iTunes?
Thanks again.

  • How to set up and configure AirPort Express for AirPlay and iTunes

  • Configuring Airport Express for travel

    I have an extra Airport Express that I would like to use for wi-fi access when traveling and staying at hotels with wired access only. I travel a lot where I don't have to bring my MacBook and rely basically on my iPhone. I would like to know how to configure the AE properly at home before I leave so that it always works when I get to my destination.

    The key to success here is to know, in advance, the network configuration of your destination ... not always an easy task.
    Regardless, you will want to take advantage of configuration profiles.
    The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) can store up to five different configuration profiles. You will need to use the AirPort Utility, located in Applications/Utilities to create & save these profiles.
    To create a new profile:
    o Open AirPort Utility, select your AX from the list, and then, click "Manual Setup."
    o From the AirPort Utility menu, select "Base Station," and then "Manage Profiles."
    o Click "+" to create a new profile; give it a name, and then, click OK.
    o Set options, such as network name, passwords, Internet connection method, etc.
    o When done setting the options, click Update.
    To switch profiles:
    o Open the AirPort Utility, select your AX from the list, and then, click "Manual Setup."
    o From the AirPort Utility menu, select "Base Station," and then "Manage Profiles."
    o Click on the desired profile, and then, click OK to apply the new profile and restart the AX.
    Just remember to switch to the desired configuration profile before removing power from the AX.

  • Configuring Airport Express for Wireless G

    Is it important or would it help with Airport Express' performance if it was configured for wireless 'g' instead of 'n'? And if so, how do you do that with a pc?
    Thanks

  • I need to configure airport express

    and the old airport request Utility airport 5.6 but i've a new powerbook with OS X Yosemite which doesn't support 5.6 ...
    how can i do?

    Maybe you have a friend who has a Mac that is still using OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard, and you could borrow their Mac for a few minutes.
    Another option would be to use a PC that has AirPort Utility installed on the computer for a few minutes.

  • Lots of existing threads, but no consistent answer - what settings need to be applied to the 2012 (new) Airport Express for it to work at hotels with an ethernet only connection?  Any answers specific to Japan would be helpful.

    Lots of existing threads, but no consistent answer - what settings need to be applied to the 2012 (new) Airport Express for it to work at hotels with an ethernet only connection?  Any answers specific to Japan would be helpful.  I would prefer not to take my old Dell laptop and just be able to use my Ipad 2 via the wireless connection that the Airport Express creates.  However, I can configure the Airport Express at home prior to leaving if that is the best thing to do.

    I have a very similar problem with my AE! My MacBook, MacBook Pro & iPod Touch (1st Generation) all get a GREAT signal from our AE. BUT, our iPod Touch (2nd Generation) and new iPad (WiFi) get terrible signal strength unless we're right next to the AE!! Tech support at Apple is of no help! I'm ready to sell them all! This all started when we got the last OS update for iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad. So it must be a software issue not a hardware one..
    Any ideas?

  • 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.

  • I now have internet thru AT&T Uverse with their wireless router.....do I still need to use my Airport Express for my 2 MACS or can I just unplug it?

    You can just unplug the express and use the Uverse wireless or ethernet directly to it.

  • Configuration of Express for two locations

    I have an Airport Extreme wireless network @ one home, using an iMac, a Powerbook 12", a G4 tower, and 3 PC's with no problems for most of the time.
    I just bought an Airport Expess for extending the range of the network, also using the Airtunes. The configuration was easy enough and both the iMac and Powerbook can do both internet with extended range and listen to music via Airtunes.
    The problem is when I go to my second home I bring the Powerbook and the Airport Express so I can do the Airtunes to a set of powered speakers, but the Powerbook no longer sees it. ( I believe it is because it is looking for my wireless network along with the Expess.) I only have dial-up @ my second home, and have tried to create another profile, which I'm probably doing incorrectly.
    There are no clear choices for configuring Airport Express to only do Airtunes, it seems to me that there is always a network to also be configured as well.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Ron

    I don't understand why the Express needs to be connected to the internet either ethernet or wireless to even be recognized by my laptop.
    It doesn't. You are doing something incorrectly and unfortunately, we cannot see what you are doing.
    I think you need to tell us how you are configuring the profile for the "other" location. You have to have it set to create a wireless network and then you have to join that wireless network.

  • Error -6753 when rtying to configure Airport Express

    Hi, I've been using my Airport Express for a long time and I was very happy from day one, as I required a device to play my music and print wireless and the Airport Express was the answer. But for the past month I have nothing but trouble with the AE. I've hard reset the AE for so many times, that I've lost count.
    I've gone through forums etc, and I can see that others have the same issue (Error -6753), but the frustrating part is, that nobody (including Apple) have a solution to this problem.
    I've tried to configure via my iMac and my Windows laptop, but all of the devices get the same error. I've tried to down grade the firmware, followed by an update, but nothing.
    I'm at the point where I will chuck it in the bin, as I had enough.
    Can anybody help with this error and provide me (and others) with a final solution.
    Many thanks,

    I have used my Airport Extreme without problems for over a year. Suddenly today, it stopped working properly. I can still connect with my broadband cable modem (Motorola, via Comcast), but not wirelessly with my laptop or iPhone.
    AirPort Utility finds my Airport Extreme (which I have restored to factory defaults), but I can go no further. Whether I select "Continue" or "Manual Setup," it tries to join the wireless network for a few moments, but eventually just says "An error occurred joining the selected wireless network." At this point, it provides this useless and poorly constructed sentence: "An error occurred, close the configuration window and try again."
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  • √using successfully airport express for internet/ when hooking up new airport extreme light glows green, but does NOT appear in devices seen????airport wifi devices

    using sucessfully airport express for internet
    when hooking up new airport extreme light glows green, but does NOT appear in devices sesn in 5.6 airport wifi devices
    wanting to use extreme at base and express in another part of the house

    How is the express getting internet? What modem is it plugged into?
    How is the extreme setup? New extreme cannot be setup with 5.6 utility.. you must use latest 6.3. Which also means you cannot setup from computer using less than Lion .. or you must use iOS with latest utility but it has limited configuration cf the computer version.
    IPv6 is also needed.. turn on local link.

  • Hi i got a new airport express for christmas and i set it up as per instructions ,i even give a static ip and wpa2 security ..the problem is is when i come to want to use it it says its not on my network and a orange triangle shows .when i reboot it works

    hi i got a new airport express for christmas and i set it up as per instructions ,i even give a static ip and wpa2 security ..the problem is is when i come to want to use it it says its not on my network and a orange triangle shows .when i reboot it works..then if i leave it a while and try iy agian its disapeared of my network...i have a bt hub 3 ....any help please ..im not sure if itsa faulty express

    I really don't have an answer for that one. I guess that while trying to get things working correctly, I would use the most basic monitor I had which in your case would be the Eizon using the Thunderbolt port and adaptor.
    When you boot into Safe Mode the startup is quite slow, but you should get the Apple logo and then the spinning gear below it (release the SHIFT key when it appears.) Then after a little more time you should see a gray progress bar appear below the spinning gear. When that disappears the computer will startup to a login screen.

  • Do I need to have Airport Express to connect to other computers on our homer network?

    Do I need to have Airport Express to connect to other computers on our homer network?

    Not necessarily. You could use the "Create Network" feature of your MBP's built-in AirPort card to provide an Ad-hoc wireless network for local wireless-capable computers to connect to.

  • Is it possible to plug in an external HDD to the USB connection on my Airport Express for backups?

    Is it possible to plug in an external HDD to the USB connection on my Airport Express for backups? As a kind of cheapo Time Capsule?

    Unfortunately no, because the USB port on the AirPort Express will only work with a printer and a Keyapan remote control. Hard drives are not supported.
    You would need an AirPort Extreme for that type of functionality.

  • Need to configure output type for adobe form

    Hello All,
    I need to configure output type for Adobe Form thru NACE. What would be print program and how do I call my form from that program? and, what would be the FORM routine for that form in NACE?
    I'm little confused, Pls I need your help.
    Thanks in advance,
    Chandra

    Hi,
    Just before few weeks we did this task.
    Say for example if you want to print PO details through ADOBE form instead of normal sapscript layout or standard MEDRUCK, you can follow the following steps.
    1. Design the form in SFP tcode, by passing the necessary inputs through form interface.
    2. Then use tcode tcode NACE and select EF as application and click output types button on the          application tool bar. Select NEU output type and double click processing routines on left side.
    3. Then, in the right side of the screen we can see the calling program and the form (may be sapscript or smartform) whatever used.
    4. For form names we have two options in NACE tcode.
    One is Form and the otherone is PDF/Smartform Form. If you are using adobe form give your form name under PDF/Smartform and also select PDF under the type option in the same screen.
    This worked perfectly for us. But pass the required parameters to the form from the routine used in standard program.
    If any queries please post it.
