What else do I need to configure my wireless with AirPort Express?

This is what I have. iMac PowerPC G4 (2.1) without Airport Card, AirPort Express and a couple of laptops with Airport capability. Is there any way to configure wireless for all computers with what I have?

Would that be an AirPort card?
If the clock speed of your iMac G4 is 700 or 800 MHz, it is ONLY compatible with the original 802.11b AirPort card. It is NOT compatible with the AirPort Extreme card.
If the clock speed of your iMac G4 is 1 GHz or&greater, it is ONLY compatible with the AirPort Extreme card. It is NOT compatible with the original AirPort card.
If you need the AirPort Extreme card, it is still made and sold by Apple.
If you need the original AirPort card, Macsolutions.com seems to have some.

HT5304 what is the best way to connect my imac wireless with airport express or directly plugged into airport unit

what is the best way to connect my imac to internet via airport express. wireless or ethernet plug to airport? thanks

Hello quinstar,
It sounds like you would like to use either your Personal HotSpot to AirPrint from your MacBook Pro or use an Airport to do so without internet access to the home. According to the following Featured Discussion you very well may be able to use AirPrint with Personal HotSpot:
HT4356 Can I use personal hotspot as wifi to connect printer?
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4007254
Also, the Airport products to not need an active internet connection to set up a home Wi-Fi connection so that is another option as well.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

Hello ricsch,
It sounds like you want to setup your Airport Express to Airplay music from your iPhone 5. I found an article with steps to help you get this setup:
Connecting to an existing Wi-Fi network, exclusively for iTunes music
AirPort Express used exclusively for AirPlay by setting it up in Client Mode.
Choose this configuration if the computer containing your iTunes library may be out of direct range of the AirPort Express, but is within range of the Wi-Fi network.
How to Set It Up
Connect your AirPort Express to your home stereo or powered speakers.
From your computer, join the wireless network. Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar on a Mac. On a Windows-based computer, hold the pointer over the wireless connection icon until you see your AirPort network name (SSID), and choose it from the list if there are multiple networks available. Enter the network password, if necessary.
Open iTunes on your computer and choose the AirPort Express(es) you wish to stream music through from the speakers pop-up menu in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window.
I also recommend reviewing the sections titled "Some things you should know about AirPort Express with AirPlay" and "Things to consider before you begin" in the full article:

Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane. Then log back in and re-enable, respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

HT1338 I downloaded Lion to install on my computer and now it will not allow me to upgrade. What else do I need to do?

Hello, what else do I need to do to download Lion? I bought the software of the website to download on my MAC and it says I can not load it with my current version of OS.

You need to tell us exactly what version of the Macbook Pro you are trying to update. Lion will only run on systems that support 64bit computing. For instance, the MacBook Pro Core Duo can not run Lion. It requires a "Core 2 Duo".
Also please describe exactly what Error Message you are seeing.

Having trouble maintaining remote desktop connection with Mavericks. What is this about needing RDC 3.7.1 with Mavericks. I downloaded RDC 3.7.1 but it does not replace RDC 2.1.0 previously installed.

Lucky you, it did not work for many users (which as it should be) so MS produced a new version, for ML and Mavericks.
It's in the App Store, for free.
FYI, I assume that you were attempting to post a picture, no one can see it (except maybe you) because it is on your computer rather than the forum server.

What is the ip port number for a 1st generation airport express

I have recently upgraded my home wireless router from a Linksys EA2700 to a EA6500. The EA2700 worked fine with my 1st generation Airport Express. Since I have mavericks on my laptop (Airport Utility 6.x is incompatible with Airport Express/b/g) I used Airport Utility 5.6.1 on my Windows 7 laptop. When I goto select my home wireless network in the APU drop down menu to select a network, my home wireless network never shows.
Linksys says it might be a problem with port forwarding and they need to know the ip port number of 1st Generation Appler Express.
Thanks. -Rob

AirPort Utility can be used to configure and change the settings on any of the AirPorts.
If you have a Mac, AirPort Utility is here:
Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > AirPort Utility
If you have a PC, AirPort Utility for Windows is on the disk that came with the AirPort Express

Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time caspule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport Express it worked!

Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time capsule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport express it worked, the single Ethernet port got the IP Parameters passed through!
My setup is a Vodafon Esaybox connected to ISP. Time Capsule is not able to extend the wlan of the easybox, neither airport express can do.
Only the option "connect to wlan" is succesful.
With airport express I was able to connect my Sony Bravia TV to the lan via ethernet to stream pictures, the TV set got an IP adress from the easybox.
With the time capsule the easybox dosn't find devices connected to the ethernet ports to submit IP adresses. The TV set get another IP adress (169.xxx.x.x.) in subnet mask 255.255.0.0 and I don not now where from.
My notebook is a MacBook pro.
Any idea????
Thank a lot in advance!
Kind regards
Ingo

Neverthe less, could there be the chance, that this feature could be implemnented with an firmware update?
That would appear to be a question for Apple to answer. You can make suggestions to Apple here:
Apple - AirPort Extreme - Feedback
If the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule are configured to "extend a wireless network" they will provide additional wireless coverage....and...the Ethernet ports are enabled in this type of setup.
The "catch" here is that you must have an Apple router providing the network to be extended.

What Vonage router to get with Airport Express?

After a recent lightning strike , I'm in the market for a new Vonage-compatible router that I could use along with Airport Express. I used to have a Linksys RT31P2 for Vonage and I plugged an Airport Extreme base station into it for wireless, but both boxes got fried. Given that I want to use an Airport Express box which will provide wireless, I figured I could get a Vonage-compatible router that isn't wireless (like the RT31P2) and save some money, but I'm having a hard time finding one (it seems the RT31P2 is now obsolete). Best Buy and Comp USA carry two Vonage devices, the Linksys PAP2 and the Linksys WRTP54G. The PAP2 doesn't have an ethernet port in which I could plug the Airport Express so that's no good. And the WRTP54G is a wireless device (which I don't need) that costs $110 (I thought I'd be able to find something around $50).
Any suggestions? Should I just buy the old RT31P2 on amazon or Ebay?
If it matters I have a Scientific-Atlanta PSC2100 series cable modem, and my computers are Mac laptops (Powerbook G4 and iBook G4) with Airport Extreme cards.
iBook/Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Best Buy and Comp USA carry two Vonage devices, the Linksys PAP2 and the Linksys WRTP54G. The PAP2 doesn't have an ethernet port in which I could plug the Airport Express so that's no good. And the WRTP54G is a wireless device (which I don't need) that costs $110 (I thought I'd be able to find something around $50).
Best Buy also has rebates available on both of those devices. If you qualify the devices will be much cheaper.
Since the AirPort Express has a single Ethernet port, your options are limited.

Cannot configure and connect to Airport Express Base Station Model A1264 with Windows 7 (x64)

I am not able to connect Airport Express Base Station Model A1264 with Windows 7 (x64). I did a factory reset, uninstalled and reinstalled the AirPort Utility for Windows v. 5.6.1.
My objective is to extend a non-Apple WiFi network with Airport Express Base Station Model A1264 and use it for direct ethernet and/ or wireless connection. Any guidance as to how I can get set up here?

This is very common, we run a mix of mac and various pc brand desktops and laptops, what I have found is that using the windows wireless client rather than manufacturers on some laptops helps, getting the latest wireless drivers from the manufacturer has helped, make sure all your windows updates XP and Vista are current.
If all the above is covered try the different WEP WPA WPA2 variants or even without for test purposes. I have most success with WPA2.
Finally I am assuming your running the latest firmware on the express unit, whilst this hasn't attributed to better connectivity for us I did it regardless.
