My airport express only flashes amber even when it's in the same room with the modem.
I want to set it up as a wi-Fi extender.

Your AirPort Express can only extend a wireless network provided by another Apple router if you want the network connection between them to be wireless.
What is the make & model of the wireless device that you are trying to extend with your Express?

    I am getting ready to order a iPad 3 wifi 4g from USA. I need to take it to India. Will the iPAD 3 work ? And when i pre order do i go with the AT&T since it has the gsm ?
    Please let me know.
    thanks

    I would since it is more global than Verizon.  AT&T works in more than 200 countries worldwide.  Also talk to AT&T about an International Data Plan for it so your wireless statement will not be as high without it.

    Please let me know..Thank you!
    First, be aware that Numbers is not MS Excel, and Excel is not Numbers. Features available in one of these two applications are not necessarily available in the other.
    LINEST in Numbers works somewhat differently from what you describe. The function is well described in the "iWork Formulas and Functions Help" document, available through the Help menu.
    I'd start there, with a search for LINEST.

  • Just pluged in my airport extreme and it shows up in my wifi list, but it will not connect to the internet. its flashing amber. ive done just about everything on the instruction manual and website, and it still does not work.

    so what do i have to do now? i think i just bought a new paper weight. but i am connected to the internet but the ethenet through the airport extreme.

    When changing/adding/replacing network equipment, it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of all your equipment to make sure that they are communicating properly with each other.
    Please try the following:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS), and computer(s); wait at least 10-15 minutes. Note: The power-down order is not critical.
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize and establish an Internet connection via your ISP.
    Power-up the AEBS; wait at least 5-10 minutes or until its status light is a solid green.
    Power-up the computer(s). Your computers should now be able to access the Internet connected either by wire or wireless to the AEBS.
    Note: The AEBS may continue to have a flashing amber status light. This would, most likely, mean that it requires additional configuration changes, like setting up wireless security or a newer version of firmware is available.

  • How do I use the airport express to connect a remote PC via ethernet cable and access the internet via wireless connection, How do I use the airport express to connect a remote PC via ethernet cable and access the internet via wireless connection

    Trying to connect my xbox to the airport express. Have wireless in home and do not have a ethernet point behind tv/xbox. How do I configure the airport express to connect to my wireless network and then the airport express can use its connection via ethernet to connect the xbox to the internet.

    Is your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) a 802.11n model? If it is, you can reconfigure it as a wireless Ethernet bridge or ProxySTA. This would allow the AX to join another wireless network and have its Ethernet port enabled for wired clients, like the Xbox 360.
    To activate ProxySTA, you must set up the Express to join a wireless network and then enable the Allow Ethernet Clients setting; both settings are located in the Wireless tab of AirPort Utility.

  • I want to connect an Airport Express via WiFi to my internet connection and then connect its LAN port to the WAN port of a Time Capsule. Will then any device connected to the time capsule wirelessly be also connected to the internet?

    Background is I can't hook up my time capsule directly to my internet connection via network cable. I tried to extend the network via Wifi, but that did not work. At the moment I have two wireless networks, one with internet connection and another one with my time capsule. So to use time machine I have to change my network all the time.
    Can I buy an Airport Express, use is as a client to my internet connection wifi and provide that connection via network cable to my time capsule and all it's wifi clients?

    The AirPort Express will connect to your existing wireless network if the network is using WPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless security settings.
    So, it can join the network as a client and then provide an Ethernet signal to your Time Capsule.
    Be sure to configure the Time Capsule to operate in Bridge Mode so that it will be operating on the same network.

  • When our iPad is in use on the internet, my iMac internet connection goes off. I can't get the two devices to work at the same time with the AirPort Express. Is there a setting somewhere I may have missed?

    When our iPad is in use on the internet, my iMac internet connection goes off. I can't get the two devices to work at the same time with the AirPort Express. Is there a setting somewhere I may have missed?

    When two or more devices conflict it typically means that the DHCP service is either misconfigured or is not running at all. DHCP provides IP addresses to local network clients.
    Is your AirPort Express base station the only router in your current network configuration? That is, is it connected directly to an Internet modem and not to another router upstream of it?

    AirPort Express wireless connection, when I surf the news sites so I linked to **** pages. And must close the window. If I use my iPhone with Internet sharing the same computer, then I have no problem.
    I believe that it is in AirPort Express, and would have to clean it. How do you do that?

    You need to use the Express in router mode.. I think you are trying to use it in bridge mode.. but you need to give us a lot more details.. screenshots might help more than anything.

  • My Airport Express connects to the internet only in bridge Modus - how to define the DHCP settings?

    Hello, I am sitting here in the middle of Siberia with my brand new Airport Extreme and it connects to the Internet only if it is in Bridge Modus - unfortunately I have also no idea what IP address range the provide has for me ... back in Europe this would work by itself and I do not have a DNS server, which I assume does not help either - any suggestions?

    OK - by now I solved the problem - honestly, I did not solve it myself, it solved itself in a miraculous way ... anyway, here what happened: I searched the web for solutions concerning a potential incompatibility of my airport express and the Motorola SB5101E and found a description ... but, for what ever reasons it did not work. So finally I gave up and:
    1) Disconnected the Airport express from the modem
    2) Connected my Mac Mini to the Airport Express
    3) Set the Airport Express up for WLan using HDCP/NAP (in order to be able to utilize my apple TV for at least this Sunday evening)
    4) Disconnected my Mac Mini from the Airport Express
    5) Connected all my devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac Mini, etc.) to the WLan
    6) Reconnected the Airport Express to the Modem
    7) Now I am using all devices via WLan and it works
    So, to me it sesames that there was a conflict between the Mac Mini being the one to configure the Airport Express and trying to get access to the Internet through it via cable at the same time, which might fit to an article about some IP address conflicts and the need to set up a virtual access and so on that I did not fully understand ... Anyway, it worked!

  • Can I use the Airport Express to connect to a Linksys Wireless Network and then use the Ethernet port on the Airport for a wired connection to a device for internet access?  Would I be able to then also use that Ethernet pt to a Ntwk Hub for more wired c

    Thanks for the help.  Looked but not clear on what I am trying to do as being possible.  Can I use an Airport Express to connect wireless to a Linksys Wireless Router, such that I can then use the Ethernet ports on the Airport to either connected to a PC wired, or even use a hub off the Airport Express to allow multiple wired connections to it? 
    I am not looking to have the Airport Express extend my wireless network, just connect to it and provide me wired connections in a different location from where my Linksys Route is located.  Would prefer to replace Linksys with all Apple, but just not possible financially yet.  Thanks for the help.

    If the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is an 802.11n model, then yes, you can reconfigure it as a wireless Ethernet bridge. In this configuration, the AX would join the wireless network provided by the Linksys router and its Ethernet port would be enabled for either a single wired device or for an Ethernet hub or switch for multiple devices.

  • 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?

  • Can't get airport express to connect to internet after ISP changed my modem

    Hi. My internet service provider installed fibre optic to my house, so they gave me a new modem. Have not been able to get airport express to connect to the internet ever since. Just get the flashing amber light. Other than paying $50 for phone support, I have no idea what to do. I just use the airport so I can play music from iTunes from my stereo using airplay. I use the airport utility on my laptop.

    Does the new modem provide a Wi-Fi network? If it does, and your only goal with Express is for iTunes streaming, the Express would just need to be reconfigured to join the new modem's wireless network. Please check out the following Apple Support article for details.

  • Airport Express Stopped Connecting to Internet, but Computer Says It Is

    Hi,
    I usually can find answers on these forums, through FAQs and troubleshooting, but this one's got me stumped. I've got an Airport Express Base Station. It worked great and then one day - it stopped working. Literally, I was online until about 12:30am, went to bed, and then at 10:00am the next morning all was lost. In the airport status in the menu bar, both my laptop (running 10.4.11) and my husband's (running 10.5.x - not sure which)show the base station is connected and working. In Internet Connect, it says the base station is working. But I cannot connect through Firefox, Safari or iChat. I know its not the cable modem because right now I'm directly connected through the ethernet line (and obviously it works since I'm on this discussion board). I've rebooted, my machine, the Airport Express, the cable modem about 20 times, in all different sequences, with the same results. I tried troubleshooting through Network System Preferences and still, a no-go. The funny thing is, if I plug in the printer and the ethernet line to the Airport Express, I can't connect to the internet but can print just fine. I've also tried to reboot the base station to Factory Settings and it doesn't seem to be doing that (plug it in while putting a paperclip in the reset button). Is it broken? Did it fry inside? Anyone have any suggestions? Help!

    Well, to anyone else that may have had this problem, I was able to reset the base station to its factory settings. Turns out I wasn't holding the reset button down long enough (duh). Went through Airport Setup Assistant and everything's working fine now. Phew!
