Port range being used by Airport Express?

I am trying (so far unsuccessfully) to connect my airport express to my belkin wireless network to use Airtunes.
Belkin support tells me that I need to find out what port range the airport express is using and open that range up using the router admin.
I cannot find that info anywhere. Can anyone provide this
information?
Thanks

all I can do is click "Other..." button, which then asks me for an IP address and password. I'm not sure what to enter on that screen.
Since you connected the AX directly to your Belkin router, it's going to be assigned a private IP address from the the router's DHCP service...and why the status light is green. I'm not sure why you're not able to see the AX in the AirPort Admin Utility.
When using the "Other..." option, you will need to enter the IP address of the AX...which, by default, is 10.0.1.1, but is now different. The default password is "public."
Can you connect directly from your computer, using an Ethernet cable between your computer & the AX, just for the set up phase? If so, then run the AirPort Admin Utility and see if you can now "see" the AX.

  • 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.

  • Just installed a new time capsule and i want to use my airport express to extend my wireless range....time capsule working with existing devices at this time...but i am not able to get airport utility to recognize the airport express.....????

    Temporarily connecting your AirPort Express to one of the Time Capsule's Etherent LAN <-> ports...as LaPastenagure suggests....is always a good way to setup and configure other network devices.
    If you want to configure the Express using wireless, remember that the Express broadcasts a default wireless signal with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx. You must log on to this network first....no password is required....then open AirPort Utility to "see" the AirPort Express.

  • How do I use my airport express to extend the wireless range of my NETGEAR 7550?

    I am trying to extend the range of my Netgear 7550 using the airport express.  When trying to set up the airport express it said that I was unable to extend the Netgear.  Any ideas how to make it work?

    You need to configure a roaming network.

  • Can I use an airport express as a range extender to a NON apple router using an internet cable (so not wireless)

    can I use an airport express as a range extender to a NON apple router using an internet cable (so not wireless)

    Yes, if the AirPort Express is set up to create a wireless network that uses the exact same wireless network name as the other router and the same wireless network password as the other router.

    could you tell me how best to set airport express up to extend my wifi range?

    Greetings,
    This is called an "Extended wireless network".

  • HT1515 Can I use two Airport Express, one being the connection to my Internet Provider and the second one, being an extension to my wifi?

    I would like to know if with them I could use one Airport Express as the connection point to my ISP and the second one, just to extend the wifi range. Anyone knows about this ?

    Yes you can.
    But, remember that the AirPort Express is a router only. It does not have a modem on board, so you will need a modem to connect to your ISP.
    Then, connect one Express to the modem and configure it to "create" a wireless network".
    Configure the second Express to "extend" a wireless network.

  • I have a nokia siemens router. Can I use apple airport express with this to expand my wi-fi range

    I HAVE A NOKIA SIEMENS ROUTER. THROUGH THAT I AM USIING WI-FI NETWORK AT MY HOME. I WANT TO EXTEND ITS RANGE SO I BUY AIRPORT EXPRESS. CAN I USE WITH THIS ROUTER

    Please do not type in all capital letters. It is difficult to read and appears as if you are SHOUTING.
    You can use the AirPort Express to provide more wireless coverage for your router if you connect an Ethernet cable from the router to the AirPort Express and configure it to "create a wireless network" using the same wireless network name, security settings and password as your Siemens router.
    If you are asking if you can use the Express to extend the wireless network using wireless only, it is extremely unlikely that this will work since Apple's "extend" a wireless network feature appears to work only with other Apple products.
    As far as we know, it is not compatible with devices from any other manufacturer.

    A question. Do I plug the TC into the Comcast modeum Router or the iMac?
    Both is good.. but at least one of your routers.. TC or express must be plugged into the router.. the imac can get internet connection by wireless.

  • How to extend the range with a second Airport Express? Do I need a DSL cable?

    How to extend the range with a second Airport Express? Do I need a DSL cable?

    Thanks, now we need a bit more information, please, in order to provide you with the correct information that you need.
    I assume that you already have one AirPort Express.....either a model A1264 or A1392.....set up and operating OK, is that correct?
    If yes, you can extend the network either by using wireless or an Ethernet cable with a second AirPort Express.....either the A1264 or A1392 model. A wired connection is the way to go, if possible, since it provides better performance.  But, wireless might work OK for you if you want to try that.
    Let us know "how" you want to extend......wireless or wired?

  • Using Older Airport Express as an wireless/ethernet bridge

    Hi there,
    I noticed that people are using their Airport Express (n) products to create a bridge to wireless networks via the ethernet port on the Express.
    Is this possible for older non-N Airport Expresses?
    I read online that one could set up a WDS network, but I am having -no- luck doing that. Each time I try, I am prompted to enter other nodes on the WDS network, but there's a chicken and egg problem since the first node I am trying to set up keeps requiring other nodes before applying the changes to the configuration it is very frustrating.
    I have an Airport Extreme (b/g) and two airport expresses (b/g) and would very very much like to connect an ethernet-run skype phone to one of the expresses. I currently use one as an AirTunes node, and the other (the one I want to use for the skype ophone) as a wireless printer node. Is it possible to use the latter as an ethernet bridge? Can I do that without setting up a WDS network? If I have to have a WDS network, what are the step by step instructions I should follow to do that for all the hardware listed above?
    This seems a lot harder than it should be.

    +I noticed that people are using their Airport Express (n) products to create a bridge to wireless networks via the ethernet port on the Express.+
    +Is this possible for older non-N Airport Expresses?+
    It is only possible with the older Express if you also have an Apple main router and setup all the devices in a WDS arrangement. If you are having difficulty setting up the WDS on your network, reference pages 42-44 in the Designing AirPort Networks Guide for a step by step procedure of this. Or, perhaps you might want to use one of the excellent posts by Tesserax for this as well. See this post.

  • Can I use the Airport Express to create a secure wireless network in a wireless-only hotel?

    Can I use the Airport Express to log onto an unsecured hotel wireless network, without an ethernet cable, to create a secure wireless network for my MacbookAir, IPad, IPhone, etc.? If so, how is that done?

    will the Airport Express allow you to log onto a hotel wireless network, and broadcast a secure wireless network in your room for your wireless devices, like the Ipad, Iphone, etc.?
    The bottom line with a single AirPort Express is no.
    The AirPort Express can only "extend" a wireless network when the network is being provided by another Apple router.
    As you might imagine, it is extremely unlikely that that the hotel network....which no doubt uses professional wireless access points provided by a manufacturer of commercial systems.....would be compatible with an AirPort Express.
    In many years of travel domestically and internationally, I cannot recall a time when a single AirPort Express would "extend" the signal provided by a hotel's wireless network.
    However, if you had two AirPort Express devices handy, you might be able to configure one to "join" the hotel network and provide an Ethernet signal to the second AirPort Express, which would be configured to "create" your own "private"  wireless network.

  • Can i use an airport express as an ethernet print server?

    here's my situation: i have a belkin wireless g router connected to my cable modem and my G4 desktop connected to the belkin router. i need to access an epson 3000 printer with only an ethernet port in another room in the house. i was told my the tech guy in the local apple store that i could use an airport express to do this but for the life of me i can't make it happen using either airport setup assistant or airport admin utility. so is it possible? and if not, what would you suggest i do so i can access the printer?
    thanks.

    Can I use an Airport Express as a wired client to an Airport Extreme?
    Sure, follow the instructions in this Apple Support document and simply substitute the AirPort Express where you see a second AirPort Extreme:

  • Can I use an Airport Express to extend coverage for Apple TV

    I hooked up an Apple TV today to replace my Airport Express. Is it possible to use the Airport Express to extend coverage throughout my house for the appleTV, or are they not compatible in that sense?

    Will the ATV work as far as the wireless signal goes? Basically, I can walk halfway through my backyard and them my itouch will cut out. I want to be able to control music (as I do inside) with my Itouch throughout my back yard, and my thought was to put the AX in a location closer to where I would use my ipod outside in an attempt to increase the wireless range.
    I just played with the settings on the Airport and switched it to "enhance an existing wireless network." Tomorrow I'll try to see if this helps to accomplish what I am setting out to do. If anyone has any feedback, by all means share it.

  • HT3728 I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    You can configure the AirPort Expess to "Join a wireless network" and enable the Ethernet port so that Ethernet devices will be able to connect.
    In order to print from the iOS devices, you will need to have an application like Printopia installed on your Mac. The Mac must be active when you want to print.
    More details here: Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
    There is a free trial available for Printopia, so make sure that it will work before you buy the AirPort Express.
