There is no signal coming from the airport express

There is no signal coming from my airport express. The light is always amber in color.  It would turn green but only for 1-2 seconds and then back to amber again for a long time.  I'm pretty sure there is a signal problem from the airport express.  What could be the solution in this problem?
Thank you.

Unfortunately, the solid amber light is likely a symptom that the Express has experienced an internal component failure.
Try a Factory Default Reset as follows to see if you can unlock the device.
Power down the Express for at least 15-20 minutes
Hold in the reset button and keep holding it in for another 10-12 seconds while you plug the Express back in to power
Release the reset button
If you have a slow, blinking amber light after 40-45 seconds, the Express may be OK. If the light stays solid amber after a several tries on the default reset, I'm afraid that it will need to be replaced.

    Yes, you can.

  • Hello, I'm trying to connect my new TiVo XL4 box to my home network via an ethernet cable connection to my Airport Express but the TiVo box is not seeing the network. I have a green light emanating from the Airport Express so it is connected. Plz advise.

    Hello, I'm trying to connect my new TiVo XL4 box to my home network via an ethernet cable connection to my Airport Express but the TiVo box is not seeing the network. I have a green light emanating from the Airport Express so it is connected. Please advise.

    If you have not already done so, I suggest that you temporarily disconnect the Ethernet cable from the AirPort Express that goes to the Tivo box.
    Instead, turn off the wireless on a laptop and connect the laptop to the Ethernet port on the Express. See if you can get an Internet connection on the laptop.
    If you still cannot get an Internet connection on the laptop, try another Ethernet cable that you know is working correctly.
    Post back on your results.

  • I just purchased a wireless connection for my Tivo but the signal strength from my airport express does not allow the tivo to load data. How do I increase the signal strength?

    I just purchased a wireless N network adapter for the TIVO premier and am trying to use my apple airport express to connectand it  is in the another room. I am only receiving one  bar of strength on my network adapter. How can I raise the signal strength of my airport express.

    There are several things that might help, not all of which would be feasible depending on your situation:  (1) Move the TiVo unit and AirPort Express closer together.  (2) Use another AirPort Express to "extend" the network of the first AirPort Express.  Put the second AirPort Express half way between the first AirPort Express and the TiVo unit.  (3) In the general case, Power-Line equipment might allow the TiVo unit to get a good signal, but it's likely that the Ethernet port of your AirPort Express is probably connected to your broadband modem, so that solution wouldn't work for you.  (4) Changing the band or channel that the AirPort Express is using might help.  If the TiVo unit is connection on the 5 GHz band, try one of the three-digit channels, which are allowed to use higher power.

  • My Compaq Presario C700 shuts down at randomly and there is no noise coming from the machine at all

    My laptop will only turn on for about ten minutes before dying, it doesn't even go through the usual shut down process, it just turns off. Also, there is no sound of a fan or any humming coming from the computer. Before this problem of the random shutting down started, there was always a humming sound coming out. This happened to the computer about a year ago, and I gave it into PC World (Ireland) and they wiped the system and it worked again. So, the minute I saw the same thing happening I backed everything up and wiped it myself, I set up my user in vista again, but the computer was the same and was turning off randomly.
    Does anyone know how this can be fixed?? Thanks for your help.
    PS: It's A HP Compaq Presario C700 Series Notebook running Windows Vista Home Premium.

    There may be a real hardware issue (like spanning above mentioned.) When I lose sound on my phone, here are the things I try, in no particular order:
    If you use Apple TV, open a movie file (you tube, music video, anything you can play over Apple TV.) Switch to Apple TV playout and then switch back to your phone. If you left the phone going out to Apple TV, it may have kept the sound routing there -- switching back and forth again should reset it back to playing to your iPhone speakers.
    If you use headphones, stick the headphones in and out again. Same kind of idea, the headphone detection may have been incorrect, and the toggle in & out will help it reset back to your speakers.
    If you play games, go into a game with sound and adjust the volume there. There are actually three different volume settings (as far as I have experimented with) ringer, "normal" volume, and game volume... it's a little buggy figuring out which one your phone should be using

  • There is a way to access the Airport express by the wire?

    I am interested to connect to the airport express by the wire to configure it. there is any option to do that? I am not going to have access by Wifi as I am far from the Airport and my computer has Linux.
    Thank you.

    Certainly. Physically connect an Ethernet drop-cable between the Ethernet port on the AX and your computer's Ethernet port. If your computer is wireless capable, be sure to temporarily disable its wireless adapter so that all data traffic will go through its Ethernet port.
    With the AX connected, start the AirPort Utility. The AX should appear in the left side of the utility. If it does not, using the AirPort Utility's menu bar, first select File, then Configure Other ...
    Enter 10.0.1.1 for the Address window and and public in the Password window, and then, click on OK.

  • Measuring digital signals coming from the HSDIO (PXI-6542) with the DMM (PXI-4070)

    Hello,
    in attachment you can find the program I'm using for my measurement: I'm generating and acquiring digital signals with the PXI-6542 and at some trigger point of one of those digital signals I'd like to capture the measured values on a plot with the Digital MultiMeter (PXI-4070).
    It does work if you configure the generation repeat mode as continuous, but if you do have a finite repetition (repeat count is 1) it doesn't react on the trigger, as if it can't find a trigger. On the other hand, if you have a finite repeat count of 30 or more it does react and triggers correctly again.
    First I though it had something to do with autocalibration before the measurement takes place, but If you do a highlight execution (stepping through the program) it looks like it measures before the generation session is initialized.
    Is there a way to measure correctly when the repeat count is only 1?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jürgen

    Hey Jürgen.  I apologize that you haven't gotten an answer yet to your post.  I looked at your code and had some questions.  What is the source of your trigger to your DMM?  I see that you're exporting the data active event to PFI1, and your comments indicate that PFI1 and PFI2 are connected to give you a start trigger for your digital acquisition.  Exporting the data active event with a finite or continuous pulse should only give you a single edge per run, though - you wouldn't get a pulse each time.  Is your trigger coming from a data line?  I didn't see any line in your included data that would indicate a single pulse.
    The other thing that I noticed is that you've got no timing dependency between your HSDIO code and your DMM code - they're in parallel with each other.  Thus you could get different results run-to-run, since it's not deterministic as to which parallel "thread" that LV will start on first.  LV may switch back and forth several times, but let's say that LV reaches the HSDIO Start command before reaching the DMM Start command - in that case, the HSDIO device may finish it's entire operation before the DMM ever starts looking for a trigger, and thus never get the trigger at all.  I'm not sure why this would explain why you're seeing the finite case work and the continuous case not, but I wanted to point it out because it could bite you down the road.
    I hope some of this this helps get you going in the right direction.  I'd also suggest posting HW-centric questions in the appropriate form.  There are Digital forums and DMM forums that might help you reach people that will be more familiar with your particular hardware.

  • The internet coming from my AirPort Extreme, which is extended by an AirPort Express and my Time Capsule, is being very flaky. It is dropping and I have to reconnect every few minutes. Any solutions?

    To be more detailed, my AirPort Extreme needs to be extended by an AirPort Express, which then is extended to my personal Time Capsule. The internet drops on my MacBook Pro and other MacBook Pros randomly. We then reconnect with no problem and go on with what we were doing. The internet is fine. Always able to connect. We have Open DNS set up as well. But the flaky internet is annoying. Any ideas how to fix this?

    The primary issue that you will need to contend with is the distance between routers. 300' would be at the fringe of the signal coming from the base station located in the house which, most likely, make it too "weak" to extend/repeat with the second base station at the shop.
    There is a method to configure a relay base station between them in a Wireless Distribution System (WDS), but a WDS has two major drawbacks: 1) It can only operate in the 802.11g Radio Mode, and 2) For every base station participating in the WDS, the overall bandwidth will be cut in half .., so with a total of three (main, relay, & remote), the maximum of 54 Mbps (for 802.11g) would be more like 15-17 Mbps. If you plan on streaming HD video (either 720p or 1080p), your local wireless network may not have enough bandwidth to do so successfully.
    You proposal to run the DSL line to the shop does offer another option. Instead of running a DSL line, run an Ethernet cable between the house and the shop. You would connect one end to any of the available LAN ports on the AirPort Extreme to the Ethernet port on the AirPort Express. You can then configure both base stations into a roaming network and not have bandwidth loss of the WDS.

  • I need help configuring the Airport express from a PC

    Hi there!
    I want to configure the airport express from a PC. It runs okay but the connection is open (anyone can browse on my connection)
    In a PDF that I found on Apples web site, it says go to
    Start-> All programs-> Airport express setup assistant, but there are no programs named Airport on my PC!
    Do I have to download a utility for this purpose?
    Fredrik

    If all you want to do is add wireless security to an already configured Express, you'll probably want to use the Airport Admin Utility. You should be able to install it by installing this package:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42forwindows.html
    If the PC isn't running at least Windows XP, I think you're out of luck.

  • Noise coming from the bottom of my mac?

    There's a noise coming from the base of my early 2013 Mac Book Pro Retina.  When I'm resting it on my lap or pick it up it sounds like a spring sound and occasionally I can here it when I'm typing and push down a little hard on the t, y and u keys.  Do you think it would be possible to take this in to an Apple store and get it replaced or changed?  Not effecting performance but expect better for paying upwards of £2000.  Still within the 1 year warranty.  Thanks.

    Aside from the fan, there should be no noises emanating from a retina MBP.  Your MBP comes with a warranty.  By all means take advantage of it and make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.

  • How shall i do it ? Complex question about how to use the airport express or time capsule ?

    Hello All,
    Right now i have an access point:
    1/ A mercury router (cheap and old)
    2/ Airport Express
    Do you advice me to use it to replace my cheap old router (mercury) or to pair it with this main old router ? (however i tried to without any success)
    3/ Time Capsule
    Can i use it to relay the signal from the Airport Express to extend the range  of the wifi?
    Can i use it to stream music to my B/W M1 speakers directly ? (I will connect by USB the BW M1 to the time capsule) and would like to be able to play music this way. Is this in anyway possible ?
    Many thanks for your reply !

    ok, i might be wrong but here goes:
    you should attach your modem to your time capsule: your time capsule will act as not only your time machine but also your main wireless transmitter.
    you set it up using "Airport Utility" which is inside the "utilites" folder, which is inside your applications folder.
    this connects your mac wirelessly to the internet.
    to stream music to your speakers you then set up the airport plug to (a) join the existing network (which you set up on the time capsule) and then (b) set it up to stream music to your speakers. again, this is done using "airport utility". do it AFTER you have set up the time capsule.
    you will then be able to use itunes to stream music to your speakers. from itunes on your computer you will be able to chose from the bottom right hand side of the window whether you play the music on your computer or wirelessly into your B+W speakers...
    some notes:
    1. you won't be able to connect the airport plug by USB to your speakers as the airport plug doesn't have a USB output. It has only analogue and optical.
    2. although your time capsule has USB you cannot stream music into it or through it. there's some basic guidance here:
    http://www.apple.com/wifi/
    3. you may find that the sound quality [if you are playing apple lossless files or wav files) isn't as good as if the speakers were connected directly to your mac via USB.  this should be especially noticable because your speakers are so good!
    if the music you play is only mp3 or the stuff purchased from itunes then it shouldn't make too much of a difference.
    4. keep an eye out on the B+W website: there may come a time when you won't even have to use the airport plug, and you will be able to stream music straight to the speakers. i know that B+W have just done that with the new Zepellin speaker that they make.
    hope this helps...
