WDS not finding the network

Hi
I have an IMAC at home that connects to the internet via the ethernet connection and also via the apple wifi network.
I want or need to extend the range of the current system and have bought and airport express plug thing.!!
What should I do - I have tried to make the base station a WDS system - but when I search for the network it is not find in the wds section.
Is the correct? Am I doing something wrong?
Or what is the best way to set up
the wi-fi works both my husbands mbp and daughters old windows laptop can connect but I would like to make it better in all rooms and also share my "great" taster in music
IS there a simple guide that says do this then set up this please
I have tried all the options in the manuals and I am now confused.
I hope soembody can help
Many thanks
Liz

Liz, Welcome to the discussion area!
Is your current wireless base station an AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) or AirPort Express (AX)? If not, you probably won't be able to use WDS.
If your current wireless base station is an AEBS or AX, use the instructions in KB 107454, AirPort Extreme and Express: Using WDS to create a network from multiple base stations to configure your current base station as well as the AX that you are trying to add.

    After I updated OTA stopped taking charge and does not find the network.
    И такая же проблема на всех 10.3.1. прошивках, а на 10.3.0. такого нет и даже не знаю с чем это связано, Живу в Белоруссии,
    And the same problem on all 10.3.1. firmware, and 10.3.0. such is not and do not even know what it is connected, I live in Belarus, help pls

    Привет! 
    В общем вышла новая прощивка ОС 10.3.1.2558 для Blackberry z30 - она оффициальная только для з30, но я себе поставил на з10 и все норм. На форумах Крэкберри, ребята с такой же проблемой (нет сигнала, аккум не заряжается, камера не работает) исправили все эти ошибки установив данную прошивку.
    Я вчера тоже поставил ее себе на телефон и все работает, вообще нет никаких проблем. Я устанавливал автолоадер. 
    В общем мне эта прошивка решила все проблемы и полноценно теперь пользуюсь 10.3.1
    Удачи!

  • IPhone 5 can not find the network and writes sim card no support

    Hello, I am from Belarus so writing through an interpreter. I bought the iPhone 5 32GB Black from Ebay all good but the problem came when insert SIM card a minute later comes out window that sim card does not support . Connect to iTunes the same. How do I fix this? imei 990002267564852 iPhone 5 32GB Black.

    You can call Apple Care to find out which carrier it's locked to and only they can officially unlock.
    Best you return for a refund and buy one that's not carrier & activation lock.

  • FF not connecting to web- This "Network Connections" message pops up: Error 623: The system could not find the phone book entry for this connection. Any ideas?

    About a month ago I could no longer connect to the internet on our PC. Every time I clicked on the Firefox icon the Netscape sign-on window would pop up. I would try to close it but it would pop up over and over again. If I tried to close it a dozen or so times eventually Firefox would open up but it would never connect. Just today I moved my Netscape file to the recycle bin. No longer does the Netscape sign-on window pop up but following Network Connection error message pops up: "Error 623: The system could not find the phone book entry for this connection".. This error window behaves the same way the Netscape sign-on window used to behave. Every time I click to close it it pops open again. After numerous clicks Firefox opens up but it never connects.

    Do you have this error message on a Mac computer or on a Windows computer?
    I've only seen this error mentioned on a Windows computer.

  • I have an ipad first generation.  I am trying to connect to a linksys router and it is not finding the wireless network.  what do i need to do?

    I have an ipad first generation.  I am trying to connect to a linksys router and the ipad is not finding the wireless network.  What do I need to do?  Thanks for your help.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Could not find the hotspot option settings in the network menu or anywhere. Help me?

    I could not find the hotspot settings in my iphone anywhere. Even in the network settings of my iphone.

    If you carrier supports and you are on the correct tariff with them then it should appear in Settings > General > Network > Personal Hotspot. If it doesn't appear then you could check to see if there are any carrier updates available, and if not check with your carrier to see if they support personal hotspot.

    Notice there is no mention of WiMax.
    It doesn't really matter anyway as Sprint is rolling their WiMax network down for use by MVNOs. Actual Sprint customers will not have access to WiMax at all. It was a failed experiment.

    Just bought a new Airport Extreme BS. After setup my iphone4 won't find the network (not even with manual entries), but my iMac (2009) does. What is wrong?

    Well, after another call with Apple support and the engineers, no success.  After spending over 20 hours trying to debug this, I give up.  Apple was basically fishing for a solution with trial-and-error settings on the iphone.  Then they wanted me to plug in software to log my iphone connections to the router, etc, etc., etc., at which point I decided I no longer wanted to participate in their testing process and will simply return the router.
    25 hours of my life I'll never get back.
    Big bummer, and frustrating for all the obvious reasons.

  • IPad 2 wifi not working.  Was working fine, now won't find the network.  Any suggestions?

    Help!  Bought an iPad 2 for my mother, brought it to Scotland (from Chicago); initially worked fine.  Wifi suddenly stopped working.  Wn't find the network.  My iPad 2 has no problems.  Reset the network settings, did a hard restart, reset all settings, rebooted the router.  Nothing's working.  I'm returning to the U.S. In four days.  Any help would be most appreciated.

    Patrick-
    Did your "hard restart" involve holding both buttons until the Apple logo appeared?
    Are you sure that Airplane Mode is OFF?
    The solution may be to swap iPads and leave the good one with your Mother.  If you erase all content and settings on both, you can restore the good one from your Mother's computer.
    When you get home you can do the same with the problem iPad and your computer.  If you haven't sorted it out by then, take it to the Apple Store Genius.

  • My iphone can not find the wifi networks

    my iphone can not find the wifi networks

    Is your router plugged in?  Do you have internet?
    Come on...
    I have the same issue.  Yesterday I could connect to my wifi just fine, but today I turned on my wifi and the wheel just spins and spins.  I restart my phone and I get the "greyed out" wifi switch. So I restart, and I'm back to square one.  The wheel just keeps spinning.
    I've updated the router firmware, I've power cycled everything multiple times, and still nothing.
    Can anyone give a real solution? Or do we just have to suffer until apple update this **** IOS6?
