What is the throughput of the Air port Express?

What is the throughput of the Air port Express? I have optimum online with 30mbps download and 2mbps download. Can the internal archectiture of the current Airport Express handle my throughput of five wireless computers? In another can it truly handle 30mbps throughput internally?

Not sure if this answers all questions but the following was copied from the Airport Express Tech Specs.
AirPort Express uses the 802.11g wireless standard. Accessing the wireless network requires an AirPort or AirPort Extreme enabled computer or Wi-Fi-certified 802.11b or 802.11g computer. Achieving data rates of 54 Mbps requires that all users have an AirPort Extreme or Wi-Fi-certified 802.11g enabled computer and connect to an AirPort Express Base Station. If a user of a Wi-Fi-certified 802.11b product joins the network, that user will get up to 11 Mbps and AirPort Extreme and Wi-Fi-certified 802.11g users will get less than 54 Mbps. Actual speed will vary based on range, connection rate, site conditions, size of network, and other factors.
Wireless data rates
Up to 54 Mbps for AirPort Extreme-enabled and other Wi-Fi Certified 802.11g computers (data rate depends on environment)
Up to 11 Mbps for AirPort-enabled and other Wi-Fi 802.11b-enabled computers (data rate depends on environment)
Range
50-foot range from the base station in typical use at 54 Mbps data rate (range depends on building construction)
150-foot range from the base station in typical use at 11 Mbps data rate (range depends on building construction)

If you are running OS X 10.7.2 then you will be able to use AirPort Utility 5.6.
Leopard, Snow Leopard: AirPort Utility 5.5.3.
Tiger: AirPort Utility 5.3.2
Panther: AirPort 4.2

I bought a Air Port Express device from Apple yesterday. We decided to set the Air port device in a room near the router to use as a wifi extender to areas of the house where the signal is weak. In our discussion with Josh, the Apple Rep. he explained how it can either be connector to the router or use in another room relying on the existing wifi signal to extend it further into the house. We have verizon DSL. Our town is very small...no cable provided so we are lucky to have what we have...some areas of our town can't even get what we have. We, didn't want to connect it directly to the Verizon device (router)....we followed the directions from Josh as well as the explicit directions provided by Apple support...it didn't work. We keep getting an error message. Does anyone have any advice ? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please speak in "Laymen's terms" I am not technically savy....but..am determined to get this set up. Thanks to anyone, in advance!

In our discussion with Josh, the Apple Rep. he explained how it can either be connector to the router or use in another room relying on the existing wifi signal to extend it further into the house.
Unfortunately, it appears that Josh was not aware that the AirPort Express can only "extend" a wireless signal from another Apple router.
From Apple's literature:
Extend an existing Wi-Fi network’s range.
If you already have a wireless network in your home and want to extend its range, AirPort Express can help. Just place it in range of your primary base station — an AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule, or another AirPort Express — and near the area where you want your wireless connection. Launch the easy-to-use AirPort Utility app on your iOS device or Mac, and you’re mere minutes away from long-range Wi-Fi enjoyment.
The AirPort Express is not compatible with a Verizon product for this purpose.
Your might want to have another conversation with Josh to ask his advice on how best to proceed at this point.
If you do decide to keep the AirPort Express, it will be necessary to connect it to your Verizon router using a wired Ethernet cable connection if you want the Express to provide more wireless signal coverage.

Unable to connect my I-phone 4S via wifi from the Air-port express even though the signal is good and all my other devices (macBook air and speakers) are working properly? Already tried to change the channels on the Airport but still nothing.

Since I've instaled the Airpor express, everithing connected to it works properly, My wifi network signal is good and I able to browse with my mac air, bu with my I-phone 4S even though the signal apears to be good and on the it shows is connected to my wifi network I can't open any web-site, instead I keep getting the same message: "Cannot Open Page - Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding.", wich is not true because I'm connected with my lap-top. The sound wifi system works perfectly but reggarding the wifi on my 4S I've tried changing through different chanels on the Airport (I saw people were having the same problem and aparently by changing the channels on the Airport the internet on the phone worked properly, but I'm still stuck with a brand new I-phone unable to opem my pages) I've also tried changing the Radio modes and still nothing.
Any suggestions?

Changing the base station from Air Port Express to the Time Machine

Some years ago I bought an Air Port Express. I set it up to connect iTunes to my home stereo but it never worked very well and after a few months I gave up and put it in a draw.
Last year I bought a Time Machine and succesfully set it up. I also established a wireless network which connects to my PC and Blackberry.
Recently, I've been encouraged to try to set up the Air Port Express again. I had assumed that the Time Machine had been established as my base station and that I would now use the Airport Express as a wireless extender and try again to use it to connect to my home stereo.
However, in setting it up it become clear that my Air Port Express has the status of a base station with its own wireless network (which I don't want to use).
I can't figure out how to change the Time Machine so that IT is the base station and the Air Port Express is a secondary point connecting to wireless network created through the Time Machine.
Thank you in advance for any help or advice that you might have.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, this older "g" device is really going to drag down the performance of your Time Capsule.
You'll need to use a WDS type configuration, which is an older "g" technology. The setup for this type of configuration is complex and difficult for most users. If you get the configuration right, there are still unfortunately going to be two big negatives with this type of setup.
1) Since WDS is an older "g" technology, everything on your faster "n" Time Capsule will drop down to "g" level speeds. That's a huge loss.
2) When you add the Express to the network, the bandwidth will drop by 50%
Bottom line...you would wind up with an older "g" wireless network throughout that would be operating at one half of it's capability.
If your budget allows, a new AirPort Express 802.11"n" would provide far better performance and would be much easier to configure for your network.

Since I've upgraded to Maverick the airpot utility does not recognise that there is a time capsule on the wireless network. I can see the TC using the air port utility on my iPhone5 and on my iPad. What am I doing wrong on my macbook?

I have over 250G backed up and I really don't want to reset everything and start again.
Not sure what you mean here.
A reset will not affect any of the data on the Time Capsule hard drive. You would have to perform a completely separate and very deliberate Erase Disk operation for that to occur.
I'm not recommending that you perform a default reset, but it is an option if there is really nothing else to try.
I don't know if what you are seeing is a Mavericks issue or not, since I refuse to use any new software until at least the first major update with fixes comes along.
Another user may be able to offer more input on Mavericks.

What are the dashed line in air port express and air port extrem

what are the dashed line in air port express and air port Extrem

The dashed line represents a wireless connection between the base stations.

I have a time capsule and two air port expresses. The time capsule is in the middle of my house, the expresses equidistant in opposite directions. I would like the expresses to both connect directly to the capsule, but they are connected in serial. How?

I have a time capsule and two air port expresses. The time capsule is in the middle of my house, the expresses equidistant in opposite directions. I would like the expresses to both connect directly to the capsule, but they are connected in serial. How to reconfigure.
I ask because I have music running out of both expresses, and the one that is most distant from the time capsule (routed through the first express) regularly drops the music signal from itunes. And I am guessing the serial configuration of the routers has something to do with this, but my root problem is music dropout - any thoughts would be appreciated.

If you have the the most current model of the Express devices, the default setup is to "extend" the wireless signal. In this type of setup, each Express communicates directly to the Time Capsule.
How did you setup the AirPort Express devices?
What version of the Mac operating system are you using on your MacBook? Or, do you have AirPort Utility installed on your iPad?

Can we use the air port time capsule to stream iTunes videos through an iPad?

On what device do those iTunes videos reside?

Everytime I set up the Air Port, in settings, it reverts back to Timecapsule. Help.

I need help with my new Air Port. I am trying to back my iMac to it but the Time Capsule keeps taking over. I want to clear all my pictures off of the computer and keep them on the Air Port. Any thoughts?

What OS are you using on the computer.. your profile is Leopard but I doubt it.

What actual airport do you have.. is it a Time Capsule or are you using an External hard disk to an Extreme?
Are you meaning Time Capsule or Time Machine.. ie the backup software on the Mac? A Time Capsule is hardware and cannot take over anything.
Putting your pictures on the TC is a bad idea. Especially if the picture are iphoto library. The same consideration should be made to the Extreme with USB drive.. except the drive is not sealed inside the unit.. which is a plus.. on the negative side though is the speed of the USB which is super slow. An Internal disk in the TC is about 4-8 times faster than USB.
Here is general post about moving live files to the TC.
Store files on the TC.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/24380694#24380694
This is asked several times a day.. obviously people are struggling with their latest SSD being too small.
The TC is not suitable for network file server.. but many people having no choice press it into service as such.
It cannot be partitioned. It was and is and ever shall be a backup device for Time Machine.
Major issues.
1. No backup.. no way Time Machine can backup a network drive. No place to backup to.. So all your files will be at risk. And you will need to buy a third party like CCC to do backup.
2. The TC cannot be partitioned and mixing TM backups and data is not great.
3. The drive is slow to spin up and quick to spin down.. there is no controls.
4. iPhoto in particular can easily corrupt its entire library with wireless networking causing a disconnection to one photo. Even if you do this;;; do not move your photo library... you have been warned!!
5. iTunes will constantly lose connection to the library. The disk is too slow to respond.. itunes on the computer will constantly spit out errors. Even in the midst of streaming the TC can spin down the disk due to caching.
6. Do not use any live files on the TC no matter what else you do.. if you edit files in whatever program the file must be on the local hard disk.
7. The only suitable location for most libraries is a computer. You can plug in an external hard disk.

While using the computer the wi fi dropped out and it can longer find any networks. I have played around with the air port etc , still have no networks and can't connect to internet. Please help

Hi I am having Wi fi connectivity issues , while using my computer the wi fi dropped out , I can no longer connect and no networks come up. I have tried looking into the air port, trying manually to connect to the desired network with no success , it says the Wi fi is turned on. I am at a loss to why it will no longer connect, please if you have any suggestions,as I tried to ring apple support but my warranty has expired this is my first major issue since I purchased it in 2009.
Thanks

My 4s i-phone which is 2 years old cannot find any wi-fi networks not even my home network... I had the same problem two months ago but i turned off the i-phone for 8 hours and then it was okay... Now it happened again.... I tried to restart the modem but whilst my laptop is connected regularly, my phone still cannot find any wi-fi networks... I restart the i-phone, i reset it, i chose reset network settings, reset all settings, i turned it off for a whole day in case it was overloaded, i turned on the airplane mode and turned it off again, i put it into the freezer for 10 minutes within a zipped bag but 3 days now and i still cannot be connected to my home wifi... I went to the technician today and he told me that it means that wi-fi is broken and that i need to change it with a charge of 70 euro but i have to give my phone for 10 working days so as to be fixed... I am so frustrated and i don't know if i want to give 70 euro for wifi since i don't know if it would make the same problems again...

What are the different ports required to Deploy(Run) an application in NWDS

Hi all,
We have a issue here in deploying our application in NWDS. As we are accessing our servers(from another country) thru firewalls in between, most of the ports are blocked for security reasons,henceforth, we are unable to deploy our application in NWDS.
Initially port 3601 was blocked, now its open.when i try to deploy my application , it prompts for a SDM password, after i enter it , it gives me error saying it can't process thru 50018 port.
So my query is , to build,deploy and run or debug a application in NWDS what are the different ports that needs to be accessable ?( so that i can tell my basis guys that all this specific ports need to be opened )
(Note: will the SDM port, debug port,Http port be enough to deploy and run an application)
Need your help on this
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Arun,
Thanks for your reply, as you told port 3601, its already opened. I didnt understand about the 3200,3300,3299. Can u be more clear about why each of this port is used for? ( bcoz i need to give a reason to my Basis guys,what each port is for)
Hope this Log details of the error that I get here helps you:-
<i>Settings
SDM host : "ServerName"
SDM port : 50018
URL to deploy : file:/C:/DOCUME1/abap1/LOCALS1/Temp/temp22390Welcome.ear
Deployment exception : Server "srvName" did not accept login request as admin on port 50018. Details: ERROR: Could not establish connection to server "srvName" at port 50018: "srvName"
Inner exception was :
Server "srvName" did not accept login request as admin on port 50018. Details: ERROR: Could not establish connection to server "srvName" at port 50018: "srvName"</i>
appreciate your valuable inputs.
