MacBook Pro and Airport Express Aren't Getting Along

So this is a little crazy. My Macbook Pro cannot access the internet via my Airport Express [which I'm using to create a network]. All the other wireless devices in my house (iPhone, PS3, etc) are having no problem accessing the internet via the express. And my MacBook Pro can access the internet no problem when I'm connected to other networks...
My PS3 is getting downloads of about 11.5MBPS from the express, and my iPhone is getting about 6.8MBPS. Though my MacBook is connected to the network, it's getting little to no internet (best I've gotten is .07MBPS, so it's basically nothing).
Please help. I've tried EVERYTHING (PRAM reset, SMC reset, even bought a new Airport Express).
Thanks!

Just checked that as well, it's set as a wireless N network that is B/G compatible... So it's got to be something else. Thanks for the suggestion though!

    I need a new modem. Which modems work well with the MacBook Pro and Airport Express?

    You need to inquire from your ISP which modems are compatible with their netwrok. They should give you a list.

  • Problem with Macbook pro and Airport Express!!!

    I'm having the same problem I have seen others with right now with my macbook pro and my airport express. I have set up and reconfigured the A.Express 3 times now. I have the green light, i have the Ethernet configured, I have full bars of reception but I cannot access the signal. meaning I can not go online even though everything is set up correctly and says that it's good to go. Anybody have any advice?
    Is it an issue with having to re access the network I created with the Airport utility?
    It worked the first time I configured the A. Express with my macbook pro no problem. Then suddenly my computer was just not getting internet. Even though all the settings were ok and I was even getting full bars reception from the device on my comp. So I reset the A.Express and have been having the problem mentioned above since that point. Please help me if you have any advice. Thanks so much in advance.

    I had the same problem, and to test if I was connected launched Safari and Safari after a few seconds of not connecting, it shows you a dialog box, with options to follow up, I follow the dialog box and like magic I am connected to the Internet.

  • Having trouble making the macbook pro and airport express hok up

    I have a macbook pro and the airport express hooked to a stereo. I need to connect the two together. I also have a lynksis wireless router that can not be hard wired to the airport express. Will this work because I am unable to make it work....
    Do I need the express unit instead of the lynksis

  • MacBook Pro and Airport Express

    I have tried using the asistant by the AP express unit doesn't appear.

    You want to set up the AX in Client Mode...
    To set up the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) in "Client Modet," 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: <type in your Netgear wireless network name or select it from the pop-up menu>
    - Wireless Security: Not enabled
    OR, if you are using security on your wireless network:
    Security Options
    Change Wireless Security
    - Wireless Security: <Select the appropriate level of security for your wireless network: 40-bit WEP|128-bit WEP | WPA Personal | WPA Enterprise>
    - Password: <enter your wireless network security password or key>
    Music tab (optional)
    - Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
    - iTunes Speaker Name: <enter name of speaker for iTunes remote speaker list>
    I suggest you try, temporarily, removing wireless encryption, to verify that you can connect the AX to the Netgear. Once working, you can add it back.

  • MacBook Pro and Airport Express = Problem?

    Seem to be having problems when I boot my Macbook it doesn't connect to my airport Express. I have checked my windows laptop and have no issues at all. Also when my macbook goes to sleep sometimes it doesn't connect back up I have to select the SSID and connect up again.
    Tried the usual things changes ssid - channel and so on, I am currently using WEP 128 otptions 802.11g.

    Hi,
    Try:
    1.) System Preferences->Network->Network Port Configurations- Drag Airport to the top of the list, and uncheck ports you don't need.
    2.) System Preferences-Network-Airport and select join Automatic.
    This should solve your problem.

  • I can print from my macbook pro using airport express usb connected printer, however my iPad is looking for an airprint printer.  Can I direct the iPad to the usb connected printer.  Both macbook and iPad confirm a wifi connection through the airport exp.

    You will need to install an App like Print Central on the iPad to try to print to the printer. It will allow you to print to most printers. Check with their support folks if you need more info.

  • Macbook pro and airport extreme don't work

    A friend (and all those tv commercials) say everything just works with Macs. Well, not exactly. New Macbook Pro and Airport Extreme can't connect me to the internet. I still have PC connected via ethernet cable to my cable modem and router which is in the basement where the cable enters the house. I've tried the different options in Airport Extreme setup and nothing works. It doesn't help Apple assumes I know everything about DHP PPPOE NAT or whatever all those silly things are.
    Can anyone explain in +very simple+ terms how I get this expensive piece of aluminum connected to the internet?
    Thanks.

    Hello sofarapplesux. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I assume that you will continue to use the modem and router in the basement to get your Internet access ... correct? What is the make/model of this router?
    If that's the case, I will also assume that you have the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) connected by Ethernet to this router ... correct?
    So your overall network configuration should look something like the following:
    Cable modem > (Ethernet cable) > \[Internet port] router \[LAN port] > (Ethernet cable) > \[WAN port] AEBSn ... close?

  • Does Apple allow functionality between Logic Pro and Airport Express

    That's it... Does Apple allow functionality between Logic Pro and Airport Express.
    If not, Why not. It seems like such a logical Apple type solution. I looked and find it difficult to believe nobody has asked the question...

    There is your solution: http://www.rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/

  • MacBook Pro and Airport Snow Modem

    Hi there,
    I just bought a MacBook Pro, and was using it last night. When I tried to connect to the internet via my Airport Base Station (snow) using its modem (which I always did with my old Titanium PowerBook), I was disappointed to discover that I can't use the Airport menu to get the base station to connect to the internet. Nor can I use the Airport Admin Utility to access the base station. The computer will connect to the base station, but doesn't seem to recognize it beyond that.
    I'd really like to know if there's a way I can get my MacBook Pro to recognize the base station properly and let me access the internet. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any solutions?
    Thanks!
    Christopher

    The new Airport extreme with 802ac wifi WITH the new macbook Air with 802ac, if you have one, runs wifi at blazing speeds.
    Have both the new Air and new Airport extreme, and since the limits were removed a couple weeks ago with 10.8.5 update,..... the new macbook Airs over wifi ac with the A.E. are just lightning fast, astonishingly fast.

  • I have set up apple tv and airport express but cannot get apple tv to recognize the airport express wireless. Any solutions?

    Airport Express set up a wireless network in my classroom.  Apple TV is working but only recognizes the school network.  I would like a solution other than connecting the two with a cable. That would require hanging cables since I am using apple TV to run a video projector.

    Hi there,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting articles below and verifying that you have the Apple TV and Airport Express configured properly.
