More flashing amber on my Airport express-help?

Question

I too have the flashing amber on my new Airport Express wireless station.
Here's my deal: I already have a Dlink router hooked up to my cable modem.
The ethernet line is connected from router to one desktop G3 and working. I'm also pulling wirless fom the router to all other laptops in my home no problem. I got the APE wirless to hook up to my stereo with a desire to play music from any one of our systems. Now I can only hook up seperately to the APE wirless on it's own network and transfer itune to my stereo, but can't access internet on that same network. Seem I have to choose between one or the other for each application. Does this make sense. I'm having trouble trying to join the house network so we can both play music to the stereo and
surf web and mail applications using both stations applied. I've been very confused with all the explinations to solve this. Does anyone have a simple and understandable solution?...please advise!!

Hi,
You posted the below response to someone with several computers in their network. I am having similar trouble, but have only one computer, one Airport Express and yet there is a conflict between my ethernet connection to the Intenet and my AE connection: I can use only one or the other, but not both simultaneously. If I attempt your recommended config via ethernet, I get nothing - the config drops the AE base station and I have to hard reset to locate it again. Have you got any ideas how to resolve this conflict??
You just need to set up 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 D-Link
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:
iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
- Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes
