I just bought an AirPort Express and don't know how to use it... :P

Um... How can I use it to extend the range of my AirMac Extreme?
How can I use it as a stand-alone transceiver to establish another network?
And how can I just use it to make my printer go Wi-Fi?
Hey, don't blame me for laziness. I tried two days and still got no clue...
:P

Um... How can I use it to extend the range of my AirMac Extreme?
Follow the directions in KB 302153, AirPort Express: How to join an existing wireless network in client mode.
Follow the directions in "Designing AirPort Networks" (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/DesigningAirPortNetworks.pdf). The same directions apply for the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) and AirPort Express (AX).
And how can I just use it to make my printer go Wi-Fi?
In either of the above 2 configurations, simply connect the USB printer to the AX's USB port.

  • I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either.

    I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either. I have an iphone 4 that will not connect to 5ghz.
    thank you!

    Your AirPort Express is already providing two separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, but each band is using the same wireless network name.
    This is the default setup for the AirPort Express, which is recommended for most users. The theory here is that devices will automatically connect to the best quality signal based on their capabilities and distance in relation to the AirPort Express.
    It is possible to assign a different name to the 5 GHz band, and then "point" devices at that network to connect. Some users swear by this option.....(I am not one of them).... but you might want to give it a try to see how it works for you.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the AirPort Express
    Click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next window
    Click Wireless Options near the bottom of the next window
    Enter a check mark next to 5 GHz Name.....which will automatically add "5 GHz" to the network name....so you can identify it
    Click Save, then click Update and wait a full minute for the Express to restart
    Now you will need to "point" your 5 GHz capable devices at the 5 GHz network name.  2.4 GHz devices will connect to your "other" network name.

    This doesn't sound like a Firefox problem. You should try to consider, methodically, what you did before the problem occurred so that you can describe to someone exactly what occurred, and in what order.

  • I just bought an airport express and I am in the process of configuring but my mac does not detect any airport devise. internet is working wirelessly and the airport is plugged next to the mac. any clue how can I fix this?

    I just bought an airport express but when trying to configure it my mac is not capable of detecting the devise. The airport is plugged right next to the modem and the wireless internet is running perfectly. does any one experience this before?

    You don't mention what function you want the AirPort Express to accomplish.
    If you are trying to configure it to "join" your existing wireless network, you need to know the exact type of security that your wireless network is using fo you can use that same information to provide the correct settings to the AirPort Express.
    You may be getting a message that the settings have been stored successfully, but unfortunately the settings that you have provided to the Express are likely the wrong settings.
    The only way that you really know if the settings that you entered were correct is if you get a green light 20-30 seconds after you click Update.  If you don't get a green light on the Express, the settings that you provided were not the correct settings.
    When you click Update, the Express will "disappear". This is normal. Up until the time that you click update, AirPort Utility is communicating to the Express on a wireless network with a name like Apple Network xxxxxxx. As soon as you click Update, the Express switches (or tries to switch) to another network, so of course it will disappear from the AirPort Utility window.
    As soon as you click Update, close AirPort Utility. There is no reason to keep watching a window when the Express will never appear.

  • I have just bought an airport express and want to set it up as a base station to use in a hotel with my Ipad2.

    At home I have a PC wired into a wifi router. How do I set up my airport express with this configuration please?

    If you are on a Windows machine, you will need to download the Airport Admin Utility from Apple:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1391
    From there, you can configure the Airport Express. Set up the Airport to:
    - create it's own network
    - share an IP
    - use 802.11n 2.4GHz (g,b compatible)
    - use WPA2 for security
    Then, test that the iPad can connect to it.
    Now, when you take it to a hotel and plug it into their wired network, the Airport will get the IP from the hotel and share it out to your iPad

  • I have an A2300 camera and don't know how to use it. How do you set the time/date.

    I am a novice at this.  I can take pictures, buy can't find them. Does the cd that came with the camera show how to 
    operate the camera. What is the function key for and how do you use it.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tross.

    Hello Tross!
    When you take images, provided that you have a memory card inserted, they are saved direct to the card.  They can be accessed in camera by going into the Playback menu.  There is a CD that has an instruction manual on it that does show you how to use the camera.  If you do not have this, you can download the manual here.
    The Function/ Set button serves two main functions.  One, it displays a small menu where you set the shooting mode and image quality options.  Second, all setting that need to be confirmed are done with the Function/ Set button. 
    Changing the date and time settings
    1. Press the Menu button.
    3. The Tools Menu appears.  Go to Date and Time.
    4. Next, operate the date and time screen:
     Set the year, month, date, and time.
     Change the year, month, and date.
    - Set the daylight saving time (one hour is added to the current time).
    5.  After the settings are completed, press the ) button.
    We hope this helps answer your questions and that you enjoy the camera.  If you need to contact us immediately, please feel free to contact us through the web site.

  • I just bought an AirPort express. Currently I have a qwest wired router plugged into the back of my computer via an ethernet cable. Can I just unplug the ethernet cable and plug it into the AirPort express, then use the setup utility?

    I just bought an AirPort express. Currently I have a qwest wired router plugged into the back of my computer via an ethernet cable. Can I just unplug the ethernet cable and plug it into the AirPort express, then use the setup utility? Most of the discussions involve an existing wireless network. I don't have one.

    Correct. That's the way to set up the AirPort Express. After connecting your AirPort Express to the router, open AirPort Utility (in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps

    Is the status light green?
    Your Airport device may be in Bridge Mode.
    Airport Utility 6:
    Open Airport Utility, select the Airport Express and click Edit. Navigate to the Network tab and change Router Mode to DHCP and NAT. Then click Update on the bottom right.
    Airport Utility 5:
    Open Airport Utility and click Manual Setup. Navigate to the Internet icon and change Connection Sharing to Share a Public IP Address. Then click Update on the bottom right.

  • Hi I just bought the airport express, plugged it in and opened my airport utilities on my macbook and it doesn't seem to recognise  it anyone have an idea what I should do?

    If you are trying to configure the AirPort Express using wireless, you must first log on to the wireless signal that the Express is broadcasting to establish a connection.
    Look for a wireless network with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx where the "x" could be a number or letter. No password is required to log on.
    Most folks find it easier to temporarily connect using an Ethernet able as stic suggests in his post....if you have one handy. Once the device is configured, you can disconnect the Ethernet cable.

  • I just bought an Airport Express but it is only found by my Mac if right beside it. Am I missing something?

    I just bought an Airport Express to stream music. I connected it to my wireless network. When I have it plugged in right beside the router and my Mac, it works. When I take it downstairs, it isn't found by iTunes Airplay or whatever it's called.
    Am I missing something?

    If you power down the AirPort Express for now and then temporarily move your laptop to the location where you plan to install the AirPort Express downstairs, what type of signal reception do you get there?  In other words, can you get a good, fast Internet signal on the laptop at that location?
    Here, we assume that the AirPort Express will not be installed behind a cabinet or other furniture that would absorb a good deal of the WiFi signal.
