  • Switching from cable modem to DSL

    I have a WRT54G that is connected to a desktop computer.  I also have a laptop.  I am currently trying to switch from cable modem to At&T DSL service.  AT&T uses a Motorola 2210 modem.  I am having trouble setting up the router under the new DSL system.  I have an intenet connection when I connect straight from the modem to the desktop.  When I connect the computer to the modem through the router I do not have internet connection, even though the appropriate lights are lit (according to the instructions found on the Linksys site).
    I have tried to connect to the router website, but obviously connot when I do not get an internet signal with the modem connected to the router.  How do I correct this problem?

    As you have changed your Internet Service Providor from Cable to DSL you should reset your router first...
    Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router using the link here

  • Switching from Cable TV to Direct TV--need input on DirectTV

    I am thinking of switching from CABLE TV to DIRECT TV..can anyone give me any advice when dealing with DirectTV..much appreciated..Thanks

    I would NOT switch to Directv through Verizon..The Verizon sales rep failed to mention several key "additional" charges and when I tried to get them straightened out I got the runaround from both Verizon and Directv. This continues and has gone on for months. I have been charged $50 and higher on top of the "total" price quoted by Verizon.
    Do your research on Directv well. I can no longer get most Philly sporting team games, the weather channel does not have true "local on the eights", and I have more frequent signal issues than I had with cable. There are other issues.
    I looked into NFL Sunday Ticket. They want $319 for the season and there is no guarantee I will be able to see my team's games. That is outrageous. There must be a lot of subscribers with more money than they know what to do with if Directv is able to charge that kind of money.

    Wirelessly
    Just select the option to make your AirPort Express join an existing network in the setup process

  • Airport Express - need to run multiple internet connections from it.

    My systems:
    iMac
    Airport Extreme
    Airport Express
    Currently, I use my airport express to wirelessly "feed" an internet connection to my Vudu box (movie download box). Right next to that box I would like to connect my Wii and DirecTV boxes to the internet using the airport express. The problem is that the airport Express has only one LAN line.
    How can I share this one port with all three devices? I don't want to keep adding Airport Express boxes nor do I want to add an Airport Extreme at that location as I use airtunes on my stereo and Airport Extreme doesn't offer that. As you can tell I am not very computer literate so go gentle on me
    any help is much appreciated.

    Ok I need everyone's help. I just bought the AirPort Express I am running Windows XP Service pack 3 I have the ethernet connected to the airport express from our wireless router at the same time my computer is connected to the internet the same way. My computer has Internet just fine. After installing AirPort utility it is saying it is unable to find any Apple wirelss device. I am wanting to use my AirPort express with my IPhone when I travel Internationally. I know it works because fellow employess have done this. I have tried unplugging my Airport Expess and the light keeps blinking amber. How do I get to to flash green and how do I get the Utility to detect the Express so I can set everything up?

  • Problem with not getting Internet Connect on AirPort Express

    Problem with not getting Internet Connect on AirPort Express (version7.6.4). Error says cannot get valid IP address. Have reset Siemens SpeedStream 4100 several time, even with tech support from the big "A" DSL provider. Plug MacBook Pro directly into modem and works fine. Unplugged AirPort, even reset it, still no luck. A bad Express?? or am not looking in the right place to make connection. Was working fine up until Sunday.

    Connect the AirPort Express (AX) to the cable modem via Ethernet cable.
    In configuring the AX using AirPort Utility:
    Under Internet, set the connection to be Ethernet using DHCP.
    Under Connection Sharing, set it to distribute a range of IP addresses.
    Under AirPort>Wireless, set the Wireless Mode to Create a wireless network, and fill in the remaining settings in the same window. Until you get it working, you might want to set Wireless Security to None.

  • No Highspeed Internet possible via Airport Express?

    Hi,
    i am using a windows xp laptop and my router is connected to an airport express base station. I am accessing the internet through the Airport Express WLAN.
    I have a broadband internet connection with 16MBIT down. When i connect via the WLAN i get 6MBIT down maximum. When i use a LAN cable to connect directly to my modem i get 16MBT.
    How is this possible? How can i optimize the WLAN to get full speed?
    I have the latest firmware and software for the airport express.
    Thank!

    I'm confused by your speeds listed though. I've
    never heard of consumer broadband that's anywhere
    close to 2MB/s. Mine tops out at under 1/2MB/s, and
    at best I've seen companies offering maybe 50% faster
    than that (for double the money or more).
    Are you sure you're listing the correct speeds?
    I suspect he is, remember he is in Germany where you can get even faster speeds up to 50Mbs
    Germany preps 50 Mbit broadband
    Deutsche Telekom, parent company of T-Mobile USA, announced that it will begin installing VDSL2 broadband across Germany and will have the technology available in ten metropolitan areas by the end of this year. VDSL2 will offer download speeds of up to 50 Mb/s and uploads of up to 10 Mb/s. Deutsche Telekom said that the network will deliver about 100 free and premium TV channels to customers.

  • How on earth could I be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when it is not connected to anything?

    I'm not entirely displeased with the situation but I cannot see how I could be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when the Airport is not connected to anything.
    Weird huh?
    I have a separate non- Airport wireless network connected to the Internet.  I had previously set-up the Airport to link with this network but disconnected it (by resetting it) as music streaming was unlistenable due to frequent drop out.  I now just have the Airport Express as a standalone wireless network only connecting to the stereo to stream music from devices.
    My devices are only connected to the Airport network with cellular data off. Yet I can still connect to the Internet AND listen to streaming music (without drop-out no less).
    I don't want to fix it but I would like to know how the frag it could happen so i don't screw it up accidentally.

    I would say you still have something of the previous setup.
    To be sure you don't mess up, save the configuration.. go to the top menu area of the airport utility and export configuration.. which will land on your computer.
    Now you can recover at anytime to the current setup.
    How it works.. that is magical ..
    Open the airport utility.. edit.. and take a screenshot and post it of the following pages..
    Internet wireless network
    THen we can tell you how it is working.

  • HT1515 I'm getting poor performance from my apple TV, will plugging in my airport express via ethernet to apple tv increase its performance (poor wi-fi signal)

    I'm getting poor performance from my apple TV, will plugging in my airport express via ethernet to apple tv increase its performance (poor wi-fi signal)

    Yes, though it is less ideal than what I suggested earlier. You would need to place your AirPort Express in a location approximately midway between your AirPort Extreme Base Station and the TV. Then, using AirPort Utility, configure it to "extend a wireless network".
    It may help. Bear in mind the signal thus "extended" by the Express can only be as good as the signal it can receive from the Extreme. That is the reason for selecting its appoximate midway location.
    Read about it here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4145
    Scroll down to "Wirelessly Extended Network (802.11n)" for a picture.
    This solution requires an all-Apple wireless network. No third party stuff.
    You mentioned using Ethernet. That would be a better idea. Scroll down to "Roaming Network (Ethernet-connected Wi-Fi base stations)" for a picture. In your case, the longer the Ethernet cable - hence the closer you can move the Express to the TV - the better

  • How can I print from my IPAD3 to a printer connected to Airport Express?

    How can I print from my IPAD3 to a printer connected to Airport Express? I have a HP printer and I can print from all my Windows PC and iMAC in the house. How can I print from my IPaD?

    You cannot.
    The USB port on the AirPort Express allow sharing a printer with Windows and Mac OS X, not with iOS:
    "Wireless printing over USB requires a compatible printer and OS X v10.2.7 or later, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7":
    http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/#wireless-printing
    "AirPrint-enabled printers  connected using Bluetooth or shared through a USB port of a Mac, PC, AirPort Base Station, or Time Capsule are not supported":
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    The HP ePrint app also does not provide such functionality:
    Can I print from the HP ePrint mobile app using USB or Bluetooth?
    No. You can only print directly to supported HP printers on a local wireless network.

    How do I stream rhapsody from my MacBook Pro to my receiver with Airport Express?

    You will need an application like Airfoil for Mac to be able to stream any audio files on your computer to the AirPort Express.

    you will have to configure the express to create a wireless network but you do not need a connection to the internet.
