How setup Airport Express time zone "Asia/Krasnoyarsk" automatically?

Hello!
I need your support to understand how AirPort Express sets time zone automatically.
I live in Krasnoyarsk, Russia. Upon connectin AirPort Express for the first time the time zone was set as "Asia/Hong Kong" and the box "Set time zone automatically" was checked. Few days later time zone automatically changed to Asia/Krasnoyarsk.
I wonder how the AirPort figured that out and why it didn't determined it just after connection? I mean why it determines it's location not instantly and how it figures out it's location without having GPS module? Can anyone tell?
PS It is not a matter of great importance but i'm very-very curious what's happening with time zone and why it behaves so strange! =))

I found the matter!
If you make a clean setup of AirPort or TimeCapsule from OS X device u have a HUGE number of locations available in your AirPort locations list - including Krasnoyarsk.
If u set up the same device (clean setup, after full reset) with a PC Airport Utility - u have only limited list of locations!
The most interesting thing - that the list of location remains uchanged until u hard-reset the device again! For example, if u had set up a device from an iMac - u will have a full locations list even if you addreess you time capsule from a PC. Vice versa - if u initially set up the device from a PC AirPort Utility - u will not have a full list of locations even if u enter it from an iMac AirPort utility afterwards.

  • How setup Airport Express to secure/private network behind Netopia router?

    Hi!
    I just purchase a Macbook and Airport Express - here are my questions:
    1) how do I set up a network so I only recognize my airport (so many other airport/wireless networks are showing up - I do not know which is mine!)?
    2) how do i then secure this network (best possible built-in security)
    Other data: I connect to the Internet via a DSL cable modem which feeds a netopia router which then serves IP addresses and uses DHCP.
    Thank you!

    I figured it out - used the airport utility in "utilities" and was able to find my specific Airport Express base station and configure securely - yippeeee!

  • How do I use a Mac Mini + Airport Express + Time Machine disk to backup another iMac

    How do I use a Mac Mini + Airport Express + Time Machine disk to backup another iMac?
    The question pretty much says it all.
    I have a Mac Mini with an attached 3TB Hard Drive used for Time Machine Backups.
    I have an Airport Extreme base station which services that machine plus several others.
    I would like to backup my new iMac and a MacBook Pro to the Mac Mini.
    What do I need to do on the mini to export that hard drive so that it can be used as a Time Machine target from the other systems?
    All systems are running 10.6.8.

    Well you would have to do backups over a network which is much slower and has highest chance of becoming corrupt. I think your best option would be to get an apple time capsule to act as a network and back if thats how you wanna do that

  • How many airport express can I add to my network for the purpose of using the airport express to send audio signal to different rooms in the house? I'm interested I'm running about six different zones.

    How many airport express can I add to my network for the purpose of using the airport express to send audio signal to different rooms in the house? I'm interested I'm running about six different zones.
    What I'm looking to do is to have self powered in ceiling speakers in every room in my house with out having to run wires to every room to carry the audio signal. I would like to use the airport express to do the job of carting the audio signal.
    Here's my set up now I have an airport extreme and one airport express that I use to carry audio to one room.

    FWIW. I have used up to four AirPort Express Base Stations (AX) for streaming sucessfully in pretty much the way you have described. I didn't have a need to try more so I can't attest that more would or would not work.

  • In my iPhone  wifi screen the setup airport express is  not visible  how I turn it visible in my wifi page

    I'm not see in my iPhone 4s in the wifi the setup airport express the only see the wifi connections and ask to join network  I don't see the setup screen how I charge this in the wifi options

    To administer the AirPort Express, you need to install the iOS version of the AirPort Utility. You can get it via the App Store app on your iPhone.

  • How many airport express can be supported by software remote at one time.

    how many airport express can be supported by software remote at one time?
    I mean remote software can control at one time

    Well Apple makes an iOS application called 'Remote' it's used to control iTunes on a Mac, Or to control an Apple TV Multimedia features.
    Apple also makes "AirPort Utility" for iOS. Airport Utility can be used to configure Aiport Extrem, Airport Express And Time Capsul using an iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch. You can use it to connect to one device at a time. While connected to the device you can configure it to work as part of a larger Airport network. If you want to configure muliple device, you would connect to one device,  configure it,  And then connect to the next device, and configure it, and so on and so fourth.
    I haven't found a limit.
    How big of a network are you trying to make?

  • How do I setup airport express to extend my airport extreme

    How do I setup airport express to extend the airport extreme

    Unfortunately, you are getting incorrect advice here. Might be a good idea to start a new post, since the original thread is long out of date.
    First, please confirm that you have a compatible Express with the AirPort Extreme. This would be either the current A1392 version.....or the previous A1264 version.
    Next, we need to confirm "how' you want to extend, since you do not mention this in your post.
    Are you planning to "extend" by connecting the AirPort Express to the AirPort Extreme using a permanent, wired Ethernet connection (highly recommended).....or.....are you trying to "extend" by having the Express try to connect wirelessly to the AirPort Extreme?

  • Setup Airport Express 802.11 g

    i has airport express 802.11 g... can you explain step by step how to setup this airport express to my macbook pro mid (2010)... I want to extend range of my network using airport express... my network already in wireless.. I just wanted to setup airport express 802.11 g for me to :
    1) extend range of my network
    2) using stereo
    3) used printer wireless 
    thanks

    Hi again,
    sorry, it took me a while to reply.
    I didn't proceed with my attempt to make this setup run, but now I finally want to give it another try.
    This screen shot shows the D-Link's advanced wireless settings. They are pretty much the default settings.
    Sorry, that's in German, but I guess you get the idea.
    So maybe WPA/WPA2 is too new? Or TKIP/AES or PSK/EAP?
    No idea...
    Many thanks in advance!

  • How many Airport Expresses possible?

    Been looking far and wide for this answer.... how many Airport Expresses can iTunes stream to at once? I know with iTunes v6 and the firmware update it's possible to stream to more than one... but what's the maximum? Is there a max?
    I know only one stream is possible I'd just like to figure out how many I could get. Thanks in advance.

    Quoting from Apple's Airport Express FAQ:
    Question: Can iTunes send a single AirTunes stream to multiple AirPort Express stations?
    Answer: Yes. With iTunes 6.0.2 or later, you can send an AirTunes stream to multiple remote AirPort Express units, provided that each AirPort Express has the latest AirPort firmware (available here). The maximum number of remote AirPort Express units is three to six in typical conditions. The number that works for you will depend on your environmental conditions (such as building composition and local radio interference), distance to the remote AirPort Express units, and available network capacity relative to your other usage.
    The practical limit on the number of Airport Express devices you can stream to at one time (as indicated in that paragraph) is determined by the available bandwidth of the wireless network.
    The next question, of course, is how many could be supported if all Airport Expresses were cabled to an ethernet network.

    Theoretically as much as you want but there are technical limitations about the usable bandwidth in the wireless or by the used access point.
    All participants (stations) in a wireless network share the available bandwhith equally and therefore a point will get reached where the throughput in the network became insufficient to stream music.
    Also some routers limit the number of stations could get connected. For instance Apples Airport Extreme have a limit of 50 connected clients and the AP-Express (if used as access point) a limit of 10 simultaneous connections.

  • HI, do you know how many airport express I can use per Mac????

    I need to know how many airport express can I use simultanously in my Mac ... any idea???

  • How many Airport Express...

    How many Airport Express units can be used simultaneously?  I have an audio application that is wireless and could potentially have 12-20 separate areas. The most I have actually ever tried is 4 and it worked fine.  Any limitations that anyone has read about, or has anyone tried this?

    Well, a standard "main" router that will supply DHCP and NAT services for the entire network will be able to allow up to a total of about 250 devices to connect. That would include the AirPorts, and any devices that are connected to the AirPorts and any other devices that you have on the network.
    Each AirPort Express (new version) will handle up to 50 wireless clients. It would be much better to limit that to 20-25 to keep the speed up.  So, you'll have to do some math to try to figure out how many total devices will connect to the network when everything is working.
    You could connect 20 AirPort Express devices to the main router....but you would only be able to connect about 10-15 devices to each Express.
    Or, connect 10 Express devices to the main router and you can connect about 20-25 devices to each Express.
    If you plan to connect to the Internet, keep in mind that all devices will share the bandwidth. If you have a 100 Mbps Internet connection, and 100 clients connected to the network, then each client will get about 1 Mbps. Pretty slow.
    I'm not sure what your audio application is here....the network examples I am providing assume that you will be connecting wireless and wired Ethernet clients to the network.
    If you could detail your proposed system, other users could offer their comments. We're still pretty much guessing at hypotheticals at this point.

  • How many AirPort Express stations can be supported by an AirPort Extreme wirelessly?

    I got one AirPort Extreme in my home and would like to extend the wireless network by purchasing additional AirPort Express.  Wanna know how many AirPort Express stations can be supported by an AirPort Extreme wirelessly?
    Thanks.
    Tony

    Bob -- question for you which I can't answer as I don't have an airport extreme. The newer Extremes can create both G and N networks and can create the N network in the 5 mhz band. Can you increase the number of Express units you can connect wirelessly if you split the load between the 2.4 mhz G and 5 mhz N networks created by the Extreme. (recognizing that the 5 mhz band has less range than the 2.4 mhz band)
    Not an issue for me as I only have three connected wirelessly, but I've always wondered about this. Of my three AX units one connects to a G network created by a Linksys WRT54GS and two connect to the N network created by the AX.
    So instead of 3-4 AX units could it become 6-8?

    how to download arabian time zone to my iphone4?

    Not sure exactly what you mean. There is nothing to download to set the time zone: http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph70825e5ae
    When setting it manually, simply look for a location in the same time zone, if your community isn't listed.

  • How to find the Time zone of a given country & state

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to retrieve the Time zone of a given Country/ State/ City?
    If I give 'United States of America' & 'California' as input, i want to get 'Pacific Standard Time' as output.
    Regards,
    AMRITA..

    There is no such built-in functionality. You would need a special database of all cities in US (if you want US only) or in the whole world that would tell you in which time zone a city lies. One US state may use multiple time zones, so you need a database at city (or, possibly, at least county level).
    I have no idea if anybody provides such a database, but Oracle certainly does not. Note also that such database would change over time as time zone assignments change from time to time.
