The Network You Selected cannot be extended. On AirPort Express N

Hi there.
I have got a new AirPort Express N. I want to extened my AirPort Express V1 How can i do this with my New N Express.
Thanks Luke

If you want to create a WDS, put both your Expresses, powered up, in the same room with you and your favorite computer. Launch Airport Utility and confirm it can see both.
_For the Main station:_
Airport > Wireless > Wireless mode > Participate in a WDS network. The radio mode and channel will probably already get filled in for you, but if they don't, select Radio Mode > 802.11n (b/g compatible) and pick a channel that works for you. Make sure the wireless network name and security are the ones you want.
Click the WDS tab. Select WDS mode > WDS Main. Click to allow wireless clients.
Click the + button. Enter the MAC address of your remote base station. It's printed on the Express and resembles a bunch of numbers that look like 00:24:36:48:ab:cd (for instance). Be sure to type it in exactly.
Click Update.
_For the Remote station:_
Airport > Wireless > Wireless mode > Participate in a WDS network. Again, the radio mode and channel will probably already get filled in for you, but if they don't, select Radio Mode > 802.11n (b/g compatible) and pick the *exact same channel* as the main base station. The network name and security must also be *exactly the same as the main base station.*
Click the WDS tab. Select WDS mode > WDS Remote. Click to allow wireless clients.
Click the + button. Enter the MAC address of main base station. Again, *be sure to type it in exactly*.
Click Update.
If everything went well, you will still be able to see both Expresses in Airport Utility. Unplug them and put them back in their original locations.
I think these instructions are complete. If I missed something you'll find the answer in the Designing Airport Networks I linked above.
If something didn't go well, you'll have to "hard reset" the recalcitrant Express and figure out what went wrong - this is the reason for putting them in the same room with you. It saves a lot of walking back and forth.

  • ERROR: The network you selected cannot be extended

    I just bought a new Airport Extreme duel-mode router, and I want to use it to extend my network. I go to the wireless settings, and choose to "Extend A Network" then I choose the network that I want to extend. The problem is that when I selected the network I get an error "The Network You Chose Cannot Be Extended." There are some other networks (open and closed) around me, so I tried to extend one of those and I got the same error every time. The part that is really odd to me is that I already have a airport express extending that same network without any problem. Any Ideas?

    So there is no way of using the new Airport Extreme on a wireless network unless that network was created by another Airport Extreme? My goal here is just to use the Airport Extreme with my external HD to backup my laptops using Time Machine. For this to be effective the Airport Extreme needs to be on the same network through which I get internet... or else it is pointless (I would have to switch to an internet-less network to do the backups) Is there any way I can do this?

  • The workbook that you selected cannot be opened. The workbook may be in an unsupported file format, or it may be corrupt.

    Hello folk,
    I am trying to create pivot tables from an SSAS cube, in excel (Windows Authentication being used) and publishing the same to a document library in sharepoint. I am publishing only 'Pivot1'(the default name of the pivot table you create) using the Excel Services options. Similar excel sheets (containing pivot tables) are getting published to the same document library in sharepoint  - the only difference being that the data is not being imported from anywhere.  The error :
    The workbook that you selected cannot be opened.
    The workbook may be in an unsupported file format, or it may be
    corrupt.
    Would you like to try and
    open this file in Excel?   which opens perfectly when opened back in Excel.
    P.S. :
    The event viewer also shows a file missing event logged by sharepoint i.e. - Console Configuration File Error: File Not Found: The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)
    Any idea?

    Yes, home sharing requires both to be on the same wifi network. As it stands access to the network requires the login via webpage, which cannot be done on Apple TV.  You will need to speak to IT in order to grant access for the device.

  • The Phone you want on the network you want

    So, I saw a Verizon Wireless commercial on TV last night. I don't remember the exact wording but it was something like this, "The phone you want on the network you want." I don't remember which phone was advertised, but I believe it was for the iPhone.
    So, Verizon which is it, the phone I want or the phone you want to carry? I want a next generation Windows Phone device. Give us more selection so that we don't have to move to another network.
    So what is the truth here, the phone I want or the phone you want to offer .................................................

    It is a problem. In Europe all carriers are unified and uses one specific standard.  The laws allows all devices to be unlocked or be able to be unlocked within 2 months of purchase to work anyway period no ands ifs or buts.  That would change everything going forward.  The FCC would rather milk spectrum licensing vs. making it a standard and make less money.
    In the end it will always be about the money, and honestly FCC is more anti-competitive than AT&T trying to buy T-Mobile will ever be for example.

  • HT4259 How can I extend a wireless network from a 2Wire modem by usingan Airport Express? Years ago I could do this just by plugging in the (old) Airport Express. TIA Travelmonger

         How can I extend a wirelss network from a 2Wire modem using an Airport Express? Some years ago using the old Express I was able to do so simply by plugging on the Express witha minimum of tweaking. Still the same?
    TIA
    Travelmonger

    Still the same?
    Unfortunately, no.
    Apple's newer "Extend a wireless network" feature was designed to only work with other Apple products, so it would be extremely unlikely that it would work with a 2-Wire device if you plan to extend using wireless only.
    If you plan to connect the AirPort Express to the 2-Wire device using a wired Ethernet connection, the Express can be configured to provide more wireless coverage that way.

    I get this pop up when trying to create a photo book through the iPhoto store.  
    "Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library."
    The photos I have selected have already been imported so how and why do I do it all over again?
    What do they mean by published albums?  I categorize them into photo albums for organizational purposes after I import them from my camera or phone. So why can't I put them into a book now?
    I have over 400 photos selected for a photo book for my child's graduation gift so how can I tell which photos I have to do this to?
    Please help. Any insight wouyld be appreciated.
    Confused and frustrated...

    Give this a try:  apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.

    What that's telling you is that some of the photos you want to use are not in your Library but online in a gallery you have linked to. You need to download them first.

  • After BI 4.1 configuration in SOLMAN - error message "The systems you selected do not contain any software components currently supported by E2E Workload Analysis"

    Hi All,
    I'm trying configure E2E monitoring. I configured all necessary steps, I can see my BI 4.1 system in SLD, also in SOLMAN, all “lights” are green. But if I start Root Cause Analysis>> Ent-to End Analysis>> My system>> Workload Analysis, I see this error "The systems you selected do not contain any software components currently supported by E2E Workload Analysis".

    It would be better if you can raise the question at Remote Supportability and Monitoring Tools
    and or comment in the blog post How to generate and consume an E2E trace with BI4.x (for non-SolMan landscapes)
    created by Toby Johnston
    Do go through the note 1871260 - The systems you selected do not contain any software
    components currently supported by E2E Workload analysis for SAP HANA
    Hope they help.

  • List does not exist . The page you selected contains a list that does not exists. It may have been deleted by another user

    Hi everybody!
    I have a sharepoint 2013 farm with 5 sever. I upgraded a site from sharepoint 
    2007 to sharepoint 2013. I had some problems to install and configure workflow manager and register it. but by now I found problems and I can create a workflow and run it successfully. My big problem is when I try to get a lookup field in my flow. the
    flow suspended and I got the following error:
    “List does not exist . The page you selected contains a list that does not exists. It may have been deleted by another user.”
    Any solution???
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    Please make sure the source list of the lookup column and the list which consumes the content from the lookup column exists on the site collection.
    In addition, to correct this problem the following steps should be applied:
    Delete the affected Workflow association
    Go to "Central Administration" - "Application Management"
    Select the affected web application and choose "General Settings" - "Resource Throttling"
    Increase the value configured as "List View Lookup Threshold"
    Perform an iisreset to ensure that all in memory instances of the web application settings are gone
    Add the Workflow association back to the list

  • Can the WAN port be used as LAN when AirPort Express (2nd Generation) is setup to join a wireless network?

    Can the WAN port be used as LAN when AirPort Express (2nd Generation) is setup to join a wireless network? (IE: 2 LAN ports)
    I haven't been able to get a clear answer on this. I believe the 1st generation would act as WAN/LAN depending on setting, but what happens with the 2nd generation?
    Thank you for your time.

    If the Express joins a wireless network wirelessly, in other words its WAN port isn't connected to anything, the correct way to connect a wired client to it is by using its LAN port.
    I don't know what would happen if you were to connect a wired client to its WAN port instead — it's just not supposed to be used for that purpose. It won't permanently break anything if you were to try it though. If you were, the worst that would occur is that your network would become unresponsive as packets continuously traverse its WAN port in a circular fashion, which might require that you power down your router to reset your whole network.
    If you are already using your Express's LAN port and you need another, the way to provide more ports is to purchase an inexpensive ($10 or so) switch. Connect it to the LAN port and as many other pieces of equipment as the switch's available number of ports.
    You're correct about the first generation with the single Ethernet port. It could be used in either capacity depending on its configuration.

  • I have just purchased and installed a new Airport extreme base station but now the Airport Utility cannot see my old Airport Express. Are their compatibility issues and do I need to purchase a new Express?

    I have just purchased and installed a new Airport extreme base station but now the Airport Utility cannot see my old Airport Express. Are their compatibility issues and do I need to purchase a new Express?

    When you can, take a look at the old AirPort Express and locate the model number in the faint print on the side of the device.
    If you see A1084 or A1088, this is an older Express version that is no longer supported by the current version of AirPort Utility that you are using with the new AirPort Extreme.
    If that is the case, your Express is at least 6 years old...probably older...so it is about time to treat yourself to a new version with much faster speeds and more features.

  • How can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express

    how can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express ?
    The time capsule is near the Mac. ok
    The first Airport is on the corridor, ok, works well and the App on the iPad signals so, ok
    But when I plug the next Airport on another room nearby nothing happens, and signals disconected ....
    is the signal so weak that is not able to go to ono room to the other ?

    Well, even if you have the first express set up to extend the network, the second express can only extend from the TimeCapsule.
    Maybe you got walls of sheetrook in the way, or kitchen/bathroom tiles, etc, dampening the signal rapidly.

Maybe you are looking for
