I have the airport express,,, but

I'm using airport express as join a wireless network.
I beleive the firmware is the lastest version.
Well, I connect the LAN calbe from airport express to XBOX 360.
Usually it works well, but it keep drops internet connection wih flashing yellow light.
I tried several things that google provided various ways to solve it, but it still happens.
What a annoying thing is it always drops connection when I am playing FIFA with other players.
Is there anybody who had same issue??
I am really exhausted.
Thanks for reading thou,

My son gave me his airport express router and I use it to connect to the internet, but I cannot add the security since I don't have the CD that contains the Airport Utility (didn't even konw what this was until I checked apple website). Can I download this or do I need to order the CD? Any other options?

I can't print wirelessly using Airport Express. I have my HP printer connected to a USB hub, and the hub to the Airport Express, but when I select the HP from the printer list, my MacBook says the printer is "off-line" - even when it is not.

I've tried several USB connectors, and several different ports on my USB hub; same result. I need to have the HP connected to the hub 'cause from there it's connected to our desktop Mac.

Hi,
I am currently replying to this as it shows in the iChat Community.
I have asked the Hosts to move it to Snow Leopard (you should not lose contact with it through any email links you get)
I also don't do Wirelss printing so I can't actaully help either.

I have the airport express and trying to connect to the internet on my Vizio and can't find a code to put in to connect..

I have the airport express and trying to set up internet service on my TV (Vizio) but having no luck.... I need a code to enter in order to connect! Can you help?

Hi - you might be getting full bars but a slow connection - games can be very sensitive to this - have you tried connecting via ethernet to see if it is better? - however if your wireless speed is good too then it could be a ps3 issue and a call to their support might help - otherwise there could be interference issues, radio channel conflicts, etc. - without knowing the specific aspects of your entire network environment it is hard to make any more suggestions.

I have the airport express as router can I buy the new airport express and use my old airport to extend my net?

I have the airport express as router can I buy the new airport express and extend my net?

Things can get confusing pretty quickly since there are 3 different versions of the AirPort Express.
If by "old", you mean you have Model No A1084 or A1088 AirPort Express (look at the label on the side of the device for the Model No), it cannot be used with the "Extend a wireless network" feature of other newer Apple routers.
If your AirPort Extreme is "square" shaped with rounded corners, then the "old" AirPort Express will not work with your AirPort Extreme using the "Extend a wireless network" settings.
You could use a "previous version" AirPort Express, Model No A1264 to "Extend", or the "new" AirPort Express, Model No A1392, for that purpose.
If your AirPort Extreme is a simultaneous dual band product, then the "new" Express would be able to "extend" both bands. The "previous" AirPort Express (Model A1264) would be able to extend only one band, since it is not a dual band device.

I have both Apple and Android devices. My Android devices will not stay connected to wireless . I have the Airport Express. The Android devices are a Galaxy S4 and Tab 3. These both worked perfectly on my ancient Linksys WRT 120 N wireless router.

I have called Apple support twice and no one can confrm or deny as to whether Android devices can connect with the Airport Express. I have had the it configured 3 times so far and my Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 are useless with the Airport Express.

BTW what did you mean by using my old wireless router as a AP?
Every Wireless router ever made is actually made of two components..
A router and a wireless AP. (AP = Access Point).
To use any wireless router as a AP you simply bypass or turn off the router..
In an Apple router this is called Bridge mode..
In many routers it is known as AP or WAP mode.
But often they do not have the option..
Set it up manually.. we call this WAN bypass as it will bypass the router.
So what you do is open your wireless router setup page in your browser.. go to the LAN setup page.
You need to do two things.
1. Turn off the dhcp server.
2. Set the LAN IP to match the main router..
For instance if your plug it into your apple router and it is at the default IP.. 10.0.1.1 then set the Linksys to 10.0.1.254
The Linksys is then updated.. Plug the ethernet cable from LAN port apple router to LAN port WRT120 (not WAN)
Now with a computer plugged into the apple router or into the Linksys .. by ethernet.. open the IP address you just set.. go to the wireless tab in the setup and give the wireless SSID a suitable name for your other (non-apple) products.. voila.. you have now turned a wireless router into an AP.

I did a hard reset on the airport express, but it did not work

I successfully reset the airport express once, got it set up, plugged in the new speakers, they worked for about 1 minute, then the blinking yellow error code started on the airport express. Since then I have tried to do a hard reset numerous times and stil get the blinking yellow light. Please help!

hello, it is a known issue that light-weight themes are currently not shown when firefox is set to never remember history (a.k.a. always run in private browsing mode) in firefox/tools > options > privacy. this will be corrected in the upcoming firefox release.

When I plug in external hard drive to airport express it tells me not enough power for the usb port. I have the airport express plugged in to power

Airport express tells me not enough power to usb port for hard drive.
I do have power to Airport express plugged in.

The AirPort Express will not support a hard drive....only a printer.
If you need to connect a hard drive, you need an AirPort Extreme, not an AirPort Express.

As you might imagine, this is a support site for Apple networking products.
Did you have a question about an AirPort Express?
If you need help with a D-Link product, you should post your question on a D-Link support site like the one below:

Just bought a brand new Airport Extreme and having trouble with it being recognized. I have a Mac version 10.5.8. Is my computer compatible? I have the Airport Express now and it works fine.

Just bought a brand new airport extreme and having trouble with it being recognized. My mac is version 10.5.8. What should I do?

The new AirPort Extreme needs the 6.x version of AirPort Utility, which comes packed in with Lion 10.7.5 or Mountain Lion 10.8.x......or......you can also configure the device using an iPhone or iPad running a recent iOS.
From Apple's Specifications:
Setup and Administration
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3
A few options.....
Borrow another Mac running Lion or Mountain Lion for 10-15 minutes and set it up. The Mac running 10.5.8 will be able to connect to the wireless....but it will not be able to make any changes to the configuration of the Extreme.
Update to Lion or Mountain Lion.....but check first to make sure that your Mac will support the operating system first.
Use....or borrow an iPhone or iPad to set up the Extreme

I want to listen to my music through my airport express but I also have a wireless internet connection!

I want to listen to my music through my airport express but I also have a wireless internet connection!
I think I might have been sold a jelly - I want to listen to my music wirelessly which is why I bought the Airport Express, but I also have a wireless internet connection - can I do both?

Do you mean to say you already have a wireless network setup and thought by buying the Airport Express you just could use it for wireless music alone?
The Airport Express is chiefly a wireless router first, with the wireless music and printing as extra's.
It can be used for streaming music alone, but I think it needs to talk to network time servers and thus it gets screwed up over time not being on the internet. Also by your using your computers wifi for music streaming, no internet with your other router.
So it's a all Airport Express or back to a stereo mini cable.

I have on airport express that is 5 years old, I now have a new wireless router. I want to use the express just for air waving iTunes. How do I set it up?

Hello 84wvu,
It sounds like you want to setup your Airport Express to Airplay music from iTunes. I found an article with steps to help you get this setup:
Connecting to an existing Wi-Fi network, exclusively for iTunes music
AirPort Express used exclusively for AirPlay by setting it up in Client Mode.
Choose this configuration if the computer containing your iTunes library may be out of direct range of the AirPort Express, but is within range of the Wi-Fi network.
How to Set It Up
Connect your AirPort Express to your home stereo or powered speakers.
From your computer, join the wireless network. Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar on a Mac. On a Windows-based computer, hold the pointer over the wireless connection icon until you see your AirPort network name (SSID), and choose it from the list if there are multiple networks available. Enter the network password, if necessary.
Open iTunes on your computer and choose the AirPort Express(es) you wish to stream music through from the speakers pop-up menu in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window.
I also recommend reviewing the sections titled "Some things you should know about AirPort Express with AirPlay" and "Things to consider before you begin" in the full article:

I have a 5 year old Dell PC and purchased the Airport Express last year. After one of the iphone 4s updates I lost the contact and cannot reestablish. I have even tried to hard wire from my router to the airport express and I cannot connect.

I have a 5 year old Dell PC and purchased Airport Express last year. I used my iphone 4s to connect and it has been working until recently I lost connection after one of the iphone updates. I cannot make contact with the unit. I have even used an ethernet cable that I hooked to my router and still won't work. I cantinually get this message from Airport Utility. An error has occurred and I can not do anything else.

If you have the AirPort Express setup in Bridge Mode, try changing the Connection Sharing setting to "Share a public IP address"
AirPort Utility - Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon
Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address
Update
You will probably get a message about a Double NAT error. Click to "ignore"
This setting might allow mutliple devices to connect and may not. It's worth a try...I have about a 60-70% success rate at hotels with this setting.
Unfortunately, as you note....hotels have become a lot smarter about connections to their network. At some point, they probably will not even allow another router to connect at all.

How do I set up a guest account using the AirPort Express 2nd Generation?

I Just purchased a new 2nd Generation AirPort Express. The features list and the set-up guide says that I should be able to set up a guest account, but nowhere have I found how to do this. I am running AirPort Utility 5.6 on my MacBook Air under Lion and I even get a message that I should not make updates using version 5.6 because it is not the appropriate version for the 2nd generation AirPort Express. Software Update says there's nothing new for me. When I search the Apple support site there is not even a version of AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Lion though there is one for Snow Leopard. Even when I installed that version on my Mac Mini running Snow Leopard, I could see no way to create a guest account.
I came across a YouTube video describing a demonstrating how to set up the guest account on Time Capsule and the AirPort Exteme. There it's quite obvious because in the General section there is a tab for setting up the guest account. There is no such tab in either version 5.6 of the AirPort Utility I'm running under Lion or version 5.6.1 running under Snow Leopard.
What am I missing?

Apple assumes that you are connecting the AirPort Express to a simple modem....not a modem/router or gateway type of device......that provides both modem and router functions in one enclosure.
If you have the AirPort Express connected to a gateway device, the Express is detecting that another router is present on the network, so the Express operates in Bridge Mode to prevent the conflicts that would normally occur when two routers are on the same network.
Open AirPort Utility 5.6, select the AirPort Express and click Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon, then click the Internet Connection tab
If the Connection Sharing setting is currently configured to "Off (Bridge Mode)", the Guest Network cannot be enabled with the type of "modem" that you have without breaking some basic networking rules.

Can I use the Airport Express to connect to a Linksys Wireless Network and then use the Ethernet port on the Airport for a wired connection to a device for internet access? Would I be able to then also use that Ethernet pt to a Ntwk Hub for more wired c

Thanks for the help. Looked but not clear on what I am trying to do as being possible. Can I use an Airport Express to connect wireless to a Linksys Wireless Router, such that I can then use the Ethernet ports on the Airport to either connected to a PC wired, or even use a hub off the Airport Express to allow multiple wired connections to it?
I am not looking to have the Airport Express extend my wireless network, just connect to it and provide me wired connections in a different location from where my Linksys Route is located. Would prefer to replace Linksys with all Apple, but just not possible financially yet. Thanks for the help.

If the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is an 802.11n model, then yes, you can reconfigure it as a wireless Ethernet bridge. In this configuration, the AX would join the wireless network provided by the Linksys router and its Ethernet port would be enabled for either a single wired device or for an Ethernet hub or switch for multiple devices.
