Internet radio through a Yamaha amp connected to a airport express using a ethernet cable

I am trying to connect my new Yamaha amp to my 5 year old "g" airport express to access Internet radio via ethernet cable, my internet runs from a adsl modem to a 5 gen airport extreme "n" then wireless to the express, both hooked up together ok but can not get the Internet working through the Ethernet cable, I have also tried other devices on the same ethernet cable with no success. Do I Need to upgrade to a new generation airport express for this to work??

Yes. The older Express does not have the Ethernet feature that you need.

  • Can I add a second Airport Express using an Ethernet cable to extend my network if the first AX is wirelessly connected to an Xtreme?

    Hi, I run a small motel and I am trying to extend the wireless network from the office to the rooms in the next building.
    I have an AirPort Xtreme connected to my router with an ethernet cable and it works fine.  I have then connected an AirPort Express to this in the next bulding wirelessly (as i cant run an ethernet cable outside) which extends the network over all but the last 2 rooms in the next building.  There are bick walls so it sruggles over the distance.  I realise I cant connect another airport express wirelessly to extend the network further but can I connect another Airport Express using and ethernet cable to the exisiting Aiport Express to extend the network that extra distance?

    You can do this, but as you might imagine, that is going to place even more of a load on the weakest link....the wireless "hop"......between your AirPort Extreme and the current AirPort Express.
    So, things will slow down even more. Whether or not that will be acceptable to your guests is open to question. Light browsing and email should be OK. Someone trying to download a large file is going to be waiting longer than they might consider normal.
    Things like this, you simply cannot predict in advance. Might be a good idea to understand the store's return policy if the new Express puts more of load on the network than is expected.

  • Can I share my internet with my Ipad and simultaneously connect to a airport express that I use to remotely connect speakers?

    Can I share my internet from my Imac with my Ipad and simultaneously connect to a airport express that I use to remotely to connect speakers?
    The big problem that I'm having is that when internet sharing via the airport I can not simultaneously connect with my airport express.  It would be great to be able to share internet from my Imac so I can be using my Ipad and at the sametime have my wife use the airport express to stream music in a different room. It would be awesome to be able to have the ability to do both. Does anybody know how?

    Unless your iMac was made before 2006 (this forum is for old iMacs), you might get better assistance by posting in one of the following forum areas:

  • HT1218 connecting a second airport express on my system

    I got a second airport express as a gift (2007) and my airport extreme do not see it.
    My first one works fine. How should I connect it ? I tried using an ethernet cable, I tried Wi-fi. .....nothing.
    Thanks.

    "Hard reset" the Express and configure it using AirPort Utility.
    The following is an excerpt from Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule FAQ
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen or pencil until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.
    Release the button, and the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule will hard reset.
    ... How should I connect it ?
    The answer depends on what you want it to do. The Express is very flexible.

  • Can i play internet radio through my airport to my stereo?

    Can i play internet radio through my airport to my stereo? ps I am not very technical so easy answers would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    For the block party we just had I was doing just that. I already had a wireless network in my house so what I did was connected an Airport Express to my wireless network in my garage. The Airport Express has an audio jack on it. To this jack, I connected my amp and speakers down in the garage. I was then able to connect iTunes to the speakers over the wireless network.
    One additional benefit was that using the Remote app on my iPhone I was able to control my iTunes remotely from the garage to change music from downstairs.
    It all worked like a charm.

  • Stream internet radio through garageband iOS

    How can I listen to internet radio through garageband on iPhone so that I can use the eq

    You just need to setup the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a "wireless client."
    To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
    AirPort tab
    - Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    - Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
    - Wireless Network: <select the existing wireless network>
    Music tab
    - Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
    - Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
    - iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
    - iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
    In iTunes:

    - Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

  • Internet radio thru   iTunes to speakers connected to Express

    I want to listen to Internet radio on a remote amplified speaker.
    So how do I create the following topology?
    Online radio(MP3)--internet--ethernet--MAC(itunes)--Express--speaker
    I can play the radio(MP3) on the MAC local speakers.
    When I tell iTunes to select the Express I loose the ethernet connection to the radio.

  • How do I connect my airport Express to the internet connection of my Macbook Pro without an ethernet cable?

    I would like to use my Airport Express (802.11n) to provide audio in another room for a pair of powered speakers, however the iTunes remote software for Android requires (for some dumb reason) an internet connection so I can't control iTunes
    So my computer is connected to a cabelmodem via ethernet and the Express has established a network connection with the computer
    How do i give the Airport internet access without an ethernet cable?

    To share your Internet connection from your laptop, select 'Sharing' in 'System Preferences' and enable 'Internet Sharing'.

    You will need to set a WEP key. You may need to root the system do some things at the command line. I recommend against that.
    Laptops don't work well as routers but it is possible.
    Hook up the AirPort express to the laptop using an Ethernet cable and configure with the AirPort utility as if you are setting up a print server or base station. The Android should see the AirPort Express after that.

    This might work better if you used the AirPort Express as a base station instead of trying to use the laptop as a base station. Then your Android would have Internet access.

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

  • I've just changed my router and whilst my laptops sync ok, my G4 tower which connects via an airport express doesn't connect to the internet. I think it's something to do with the IP or DHCP settings but have had no success, any help much appreciated.

    Hi Jake,
    Is it connecting to the Router or Modem?
    Is the new Router using maybe WPA2 encryption? If so, G4s can only do WPA or less.

    The Interface that connects to the Internet, needs to be drug to the top of System Preferences>Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations and checked ON.
    Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
    Then... Try putting these numbers in Network>Airport>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Then Apply.
    Also, turn off IPv6:

  • Connecting to multiple Airport Express base stations for internet and TV?

    I want to be able to use wireless internet and stream music to my stereo at the same time, but I only have a single ethernet connection behind my stereo and it's connected to the Pay TV. My options seem to be an ethernet splitter (maybe - any ideas?), getting a new ethernet connection installed behind the stereo so I can insert this into the same Airport Express base station I use for my music, or buying a second Airport Express base station and connecting it to one of the other internet connections in the room, then connecting to both Airport Express base stations at the same time.
    Is this possible? Are there other alternatives?
    Many thanks

    Nate, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Once you have a network, you can connect multiple AirPort Express (AX) to that network (wirelessly or via Ethernet). When your computer joins that network it can access all the AX.
    You could take your current internet connection and run it into an inexpensive router with multiple Ethernet ports (not the AX). If this is a wireless router then your AXs could be located elsewhere and connect as wireless clients to that network. Once you computer joined that network it could stream music to the AXs.

  • How do I connect an iPod touch to Internet using an Ethernet cable

    My daughter,s college has no WiFi in the dorms, but each room has an Ethernet connection. WiFi routers are not allowed.  Can we connect the iPod touch to the Internet using the Ethernet cable and some sort of hardware or patch cord

    No. The iPod will only connect to the internet via wifi. The USB connection provides NO internet connectivity.
    Maybe you can cheat and setup a laptop with an wifi card as a hotspot

  • Connecting AirPort Express using Fire Wire

    Hi, can't see this posted anywhere else. Have been running my MacBook Pro off my AirPort Express quite happily for some time. However recently purchased a Sonos S5 that needs to connect to my wireless router via ethernet. Only problem is the Airport Exp. only has the one ethernet port. So figured I could use the FireWire connection for the Airport/Modem and then the ethernet for the Airport/Sonos.
    Only problem is I need to configure the FireWire in System Preferences and despite my attempts at guessing configuration I have no idea what I am actually doing. Not sure if it's an easy answer, but if anyone can help with config I would be very grateful.

    Hi, thanks for the response and sorry that I am unclear - not my area of specialty.
    Currently I have my airport express router that connects to my modem via ethernet.
    I purchased a sonos unit that streams music over the internet and plays it through the unit. It uses its own base station/router to connect to my wireless network so the main unit then becomes wireless and I can move it any where in my house.
    As I understand this base unit needs to connect into my router via ethernet. The problem is the Airport Express has one ethernet port and one fire wire port. I was hoping to get around this by using the fire wire to connect to my modem, and then that would leave the ethernet port free for the Sonos base unit.
    In case I have just been confusing again the manual for the Sonos refers to the ethernet connection 'use category 5 ethernet cable to connect to a router, computer or additional network device'
    This might not be possible, just assumed fire wire would work but no idea how to configure. Possibly it will involve me having to buy a hub (or extreme) to get multiple ethernet ports.
    Thanks for your help - I am (obviously) lost here so any advice is great!!

  • Connected to the Airport Express' Network but Can't Find Express

    I've recently been having some trouble with my network, which contains a modem connected to an Airport Express, with my iMac connecting wirelessly to that. My internet connection is getting dropped, and when I open up Airport Utility I can't see my Express. However, from the wireless indicator at the top-right of my screen, I am still connected to the Express' network. When I turn my iMac's Airport on and off, it reconnects to the Express' network (which is constantly at full-strength). I also can't ping the Express.
    So, I'm connecting to the Express' network but I can't do anything. After a variable amount of time (5 seconds to half-an-hour), the Express will appear in my Airport Utilities once again and I can surf the net. Does anyone have any thoughts? Is there a way to ping any of the protected wireless-networks that are available, just to see if it's a problem on my iMac's end? Could my Express still be broadcasting its SSID but has shut-down it's networking capability because of an overheating issue?
    Thanks.
    - Matt
    PS. My Airport Express is the 802.11n model.

    You may need to re set the AE to factory specs and start all over. Read the manual on a factory re set. Start on page 41 and go through page 42.
