Is is possible connecting a Trekstor wifi Storage with airport express?
In theory, the Trekstor should be able to connect to an existing network either via a wired (Ethernet) or wireless (Wi-Fi) connection. The AirPort Express, depending on the model, can supply both.
On the other hand, the Express DOES NOT support hard drives connected to its USB port; whereas, the Extreme and Time Capsule base stations do.

My two iMacs frequently go offline when I have our iPad and two iPhones-5 connected with Airport Express (2nd edition). If I disable WiFi on my three "i" devices no problem. Any thoughts on this?

.....doesn't that seems to suggest the modem?
That is what I have suggested....twice now. From posts above:
My opinion would be that it is likely not the ISP, unless you have complete loss of Internet service for all devices at the same time......it is the Comtrend device....
and
I believe that the problem lies with the modem, and not the ISP signal.
Your ISP will likely have a different opinion, though. Please keep us posted on your progress.

Can I create a home network withous dsl connection with airport express

can I create a home network without dsl connection with airport express?
So it means I can't connect to my HP Airprint/Wireless printer without exretnal connection through ISP?? Just need to print from my Mac and iphone. I have Vodafone Prepaid connection, which is directly connected to my Mac. Does that make an internal network possible?

You have to set up the Air Port with an internet connection to set up a network. Do you have a modem? If yes you can set up the network.

How make wireless connection with airport express to Yamaha Clavinova CVP-403 ?

I would like to wirelessly connect my Yamaha Clavinova CVP-403. I would like to use a D-link DWA 125 and my airport express. Does anyone has any experience on how to do that?

Hi Henry - you seem to be a very helpful and knowledgeable person and I am wanting to dive in to the depths of wireless working at home and could probably do with your advice. I certainly dont have as much knowledge as Jaybee and if hes had problems I am feeling a little apprehensive.
I know that the first thing I need to do is get an ethernet modem to use with Airport Express as I currently only have a USB modem. I was wondering if you have any recommendations or if I should go straight for the Netgear DSL modem/router (DG834B) that Jaybee ended up with. Although the bit about disabling the Airport Express resp. Extreme routers scares me rigid
I have looked at About this Mac and got the following for you hope its helpful.
OSX 10.3.9
1.33 HGz PowerPC G4 processor
Airport Extreme: Worldwide
Firmware: 400.17(3.90.34.0.p11)
Airport admin utility: 4.2 (v420.31)
My ISP is also Tiscali (UK) - they have said they can only provide modem support on the USB modem they provide so once I switch to an ethernet modem Ill be on my own. I have checked the Tiscali website and found the following modems, so I would assume (probably unwisely) that they would be compatible with my account...
Zoom X6 5590 DSL Modem (55907200)
D-Link DSL-300T
Zoom Hayes ADSL Ethernet (H0-15805) (081580572)
Any help is very gratefully received.

Sudden slow wifi connection with Airport Express 802.11n

Recently, all of a sudden I noticed the speed of my internet droped dramaticlly from ~27Mbps to ~4Mbps (Speedtest.com) Comcast's blast. When I connect my laptop directly to the modem there is no problem with the speed. I tried restarting the modem, changing the channel/radio mode on the airport express, hard reset the airport epress, change the location of the airport express but nothing has changed. I notice that the speed fluctuate on speedtest.com meaning it ranges from 1-3 to 5-7Mbps. I test the speed on three other laptops but still got the same result. The only change I can think of that could effect this is the addetion of two computers to the network but I would still get the same speed when they are powered off.
Thanks

Do I have to change anything on my computers?
you use +airport utility+ (AU) (in your applications > utilities folder). launch AU, double-click on the icon of your extreme to enter manual setup, and go to the wireless tab. see this screen shot
however, before you do, i recommend you download iStumbler (does not work with Snow Leopard) or AirRadar (it has a trial period) and note the channels other networks in your vicinity are broadcasting on. change the channel of your network as far away as possible from those.
good luck !

Need help getting LG TV wifi connection with Airport Express?

I can successfully hook the tv up to the network using the dongle PIN method on the Airport Express. It works fine until I turn the tv off. Then I have to go through the whole setup procedure again. Very frustrating. How can I get the Airport to allow the tv access when I turn the tv back on without having to do the setup again? I did not limit access to 24 hours. Not sure what I am missing. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

The dongle is the little usb device that makes the tv wifi capable, it is assigned a unique PIN that I input into the airport express utility so my wireless network will allow it access. All that works fine, but I have to redo the whole setup everytime I turn the tv off. Have you any experience with this and can offer a hint on how to allow the tv access each time I turn it on?

Ipad connects with Airport Express, but not wireless router

I have a airport express that exends my network and is connected by an ethernet cable to the wireless router. they are on opposite sides of the house from each other. every other device i own has full bars wifi anywhere in the house. but the ipad only seems to find the signal from the AE.
If i go in the bedroom with the wireless router, the signal drops to 1 bar. if i unplug the AE along with all the other electronics for the TV/Receiver at night, the ipad loses the signal and cannot get a signal from the router, standing right next to it. i have tried reset, hard reset, renew lease forgetting network, and all fails. any ideas?
I have a Verizon Ultraline series 3 model A90-9100EM15-10 and the firmware is up to date.

Disclaimer - For me the Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture very different from that found in most 1st world nations, such as that in the two dominant North American countries. Written language has no tone. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
You likely have your reason for extending your network in this manner, but it seems that the AE is not really extending your router's network, but creating its own separate network that then extends your internet connection. This can be confusing to devices if you are expecting that they will switch between the two of them automatically.
The iPad can only support one connect at a time. It sounds like you want it to be able to jump from the AE connection to a router connection on a whim when signal strength drops. I am not sure that the iPad's radio is that sophisticated. At best when the iPad looses a signal it could ask if you want to join any other network that it detects, especially if it has connected to that network in the past.
AFA the router, some routers don't like iOS devices and just won't connect. When you go to Settings/Wi-Fi does the iPad see the router's network? If the iPad sees the router network, try configuring a connection by hand.
Tap Other... and write the name of the router's network. Tap Security and select the type of security the router's network employs. Return to the previous pane and enter the password. Tap Join. If you can make the conection the iPad should remember this network in the future. Turn on Ask to Join Networks and hopefully when the iPad looses the AE signal in the future it will then ask you if you want to join the router's network.

Trouble with keeping connection with Airport express

Hi,
I've got 5-6 year old airport express which gives me some troubles. It has worked for months but recently it just disappeared from Airfoil and when I looked up the settings it said that it wasn't installed.
I tried to reinstall it several times without success. When I used old versions of the program it worked for a few days. And then the same thing happened, it disappeared from airfoil and I had to reinstall it again.
Could it be so that this old model of airport express is in conflict with my Mac Os Leopard system so it keeps forcing my airport settings to go off? Is there a solution to it so I don't have to reinstall it every now and then?
Thanks for your help
Regards Henrik

I need to share a wireless connection to a old powermac that does not have a wifi card. I have an airport express that is connected "join wireless network" mode, and I have run an ethernet cable from the express to the G5. However, I am not getting a internet connection on the G5 (the rest of the wireless network works fine).
If you launch AirPort Utility, put your AirPort Express into "manual setup" mode, then view the AirPort panel, Wireless tab, have you checked "Allow Ethernet clients"?
I am wondering if I should have the express set up in one of the other "wireless mode" options such as, "participate in a WDS network"? What exactly is a WDS network anyway?
WDS is for pre-802.11n equipment. You don't want to use it unless you have to.
If I click on "internet" in Airport Utility, go to the airport express, I see that "connection sharing is set to, "Off (bridge mode)" and grayed out.
What exactly is "bridge mode".
"Bridge mode" delegates control to the "upstream" router. In your case that's what you want.

Cannot connect with Airport Express

My wife and I each have a MacBook Pro. We are using a 2nd generation Airport Express with our cable modem. Her MacBook connects using the Airport Express, but mine will not connect. How can I change (or reset) my settings so that I can connect?

On your MacBook Pro do the following:
1a. Delete Preferred Network(s)
System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced > Wi-Fi tab
Under "Preferred Networks," delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list.
1b. Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
In the windows on the left side: Select login for Keychains and "All Items" for Category.
Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
1c. Add Preferred Network(s)
System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced > Wi-Fi tab
Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
Restart or log out then back in.
2. Move System Configuration Files
(Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
Go to /Library/Preferences
Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)

Having trouble bridging wired connection with Airport Express

I've had an Airport Express Base Station for a little while, really only using it to wirelessly print and stream my music.
I'm at my college now, and there's a campus wide wired network. I've been trying to bridge this network so I can wirelessly connect to the internet with my laptop, Nintendo DS and eventually Nintendo Wii. The problem is that I can only get the orange blinking light on the AEBS, I don't have the software that came with it (though I have the Airport Admin and Setup stuff under Utilities), and the computer doesn't seem to recognize the base station at all.
I'm an idiot, I'm pretty certain, but is there something easy I am overlooking here? Will an AEBS not bridge a wired network unless it's cable or DSL? I'm unclear on exactly what kind of network my college uses.
thanks!

Most likely your college's network is providing NAT/DHCP services. I suggest that you set up your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a "wireless bridge."
To set up the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a bridge, using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, make these settings:
Network tab
- Distribute IP addresses (unchecked)
- Apply the new setting.
- Wait at least 5 minutes.

Sharing an internet connection with Airport express and Time Capsule

Hi, I have been happily using a cable modem and a Time Capsule for my internet connection and wireless network. We recently added solar panels to our roof and the system needs to be connected to the internet so it can be monitored remotely. Calling Comcast is an exercise in frustration, and the solar people don't seem to know exactly how to do it, so I'm trying this.
We bought an Airport Express, thinking if it is connected with an ethernet cable to the solar system, it could somehow share the internet connection with the Time Capsule, or they could talk to each other. When I plug in the Airport Express, the only set-up option seems to be to set up a new network, which I don't think I want to do. Can anyone tell me how to set this up? Thank you!

Hi, Under Water.
You should configure the Express to "Join a wireless network" or to "Extend a wireless network". (Either one will work.)
Connect your computer to your Express via Ethernet and open AirPort Utility. Press "Manual Setup" and authenticate if necessary.
Go to the "Base Station" tab. Give the Express a name and password.
Go to the "Wireless" tab. Set the Wireless mode to "Join a wireless network" or "Extend a wireless network." Enter the name of the wireless network created by your Time Capsule (or select it from the list). Check the box that says "Allow Ethernet clients" (if you're joining) or "Allow Wireless Clients" (if you're extending).
Provide the appropriate security mode and password for the Time Capsule's network.
Press "Update" and allow your Express to restart.
Then you can plug the solar system into the Express's Ethernet port.

Lose internet connection with airport express

I have a powerpc imac G5 and intel powerbook with built in airport and using an airport express for both. I've since moved in with my fiance and she has a PC. We can all connect to my airport express without any problems initially. Every once in a while though I'll lose my connection in all 3 computers. The green light on the express is lit at all times. If I unplug the express and replug and wait for it to reset, all is fine again... for a while... then some days later it'll go out again. Any ideas why this is happening.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hana, welcome to the discussions!
First thing to check is how much competition you have for the airways in your area.
Download iStumbler, www.istumbler.net to get a look at the other wireless networks that may be causing interference with your system.
Pay close attention to the channels that the other networks are occupying. Then using AirPort Utility - Manual Setup - Wireless Tab, change your channel to a setting that is as far away as possible from the other channels in use.
If you are in a dense area of apartments, etc., it may be quite difficult to find a clear channel. And, most modern routers allow the user to keep their network hidden, so you may not be able to even see some networks. Unfortunately, there are no shortcuts here.
You might also try "interference robustness" under "Options" on the Wireless Tab in AirPort Utility - Manual Setup. There may be a slight speed penalty for using this setting, but if it prevents interruptions, that will be good compromise.
Post back on your progress.
