  • 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!

    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.

  • Which Color LaserJets are compatible with Airport Express?

    I am having a hard time figuring out which HP Color LaserJet printers are going to work with AE. HP's website does not give me much information and of course Apple's site is the same. What am I really looking for here? Would Apple Bounjour compatibility do it? If so, would I be able to just connect the printer to AE either using USB or an Ethernet and print off of the wireless network?
    Let's say would any of the following work?
    HP Color LaserJet 2605dn
    HP Color LaserJet 3600dn
    HP Color LaserJet 3600n
    HP Color LaserJet 3800

    Let's say would any of the following work?
    HP Color LaserJet 2605dn
    HP Color LaserJet 3600dn
    HP Color LaserJet 3600n
    These are all network printers with ethernet connections and are designed to be connected to networks via ethernet.
    You could only connect these to an Airport Express by ethernet if the Airport Express was configured as a remote WDS node.
    If connecting by USB I would expect them to work (even if they are not on my list) as they are network printers by design.
    HP Color LaserJet 3800
    This one is less certain, but my experiences with the 2600 makes me think yes it will work.

  • Color Laser Printer - advice for student - compatible with Airport Express!

    Hi there!
    In September my studies will start hier in Germany. I'm now looking for an Color Laser Printer as a birthday gift from my parents. For me the compatibility with my Airport Express is very important. The printing costs should be low, i prefer to spend more money on the printer once. I think a price between 400 and 600 Euros should be ok.
    Could you give me some advices or tell me your experiences?
    Sorry for my english, i know it's not the best;-)
    Greetings from Germany!
    Mark

    A very helpful guide as to which printers work with the airport express is here:
    http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/8013.html
    If it works on the quoted airport extreme, you should be good with the airport express
    Hope that helps and good luck.

  • Is Printer HP Laserjet 1018 compatible with Airport Express and windows

    I am using HP Laserjet 1018 which is connected directly to the PC.
    As it is a USB printer but not a wifi one, can I connect it to Airport Express and will it be recognised ?
    Thank you for your answers.

    Hello TigerParis75,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:

  • What range extender is compatible with Airport Express?

    I want to extend the range of my wireless signal. I have two airport expresses, one is connected in the office (to the cable modem). The other one is in my bedroom and is used as an extender. I want to extend the my wireless signal to my kitchen, I get the signal from the office but it's weak. However, I don't want to spend the money on another airport express. So, what range extender can I use, or what other ideas are out there.
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    If you want to this wirelessly then you will need to use another Airport Express.
    If you can run a cable to close to the kitchen from the office and attach a cheap wireless access point then you can create a roaming network.

  • Is a D-Link 300T ADSL modem compatible with Airport Extreme?

    I have tried to upgrade my existing Broadband (Ethernet) connection to WiFi and cannot get it to work. I have plugged the Extreme into the Ethernet port in the modem and gone through Airport Setup Assistant and it does not seem to work. I am using DHCP which seems to be capturing the IP address the service provider (Demon) gave me. Am I doing something wrong or is the modem incompatible? I have the latest Airport software upgrade 2005-001.
    HELP

    I have the same modem and it works fine with the AEBS
    as long as you DON'T have the latest firmware update
    (5.6)! Follow the various posts on these boards on
    "updating" the firmware back to 5.5.1 and you should
    - I hope - be OK.
    Thanks very much for this. Am now away from the location in question, but will try your suggestion on my return.

  • AT&T DSL Modem compatible with Airport wireless router?

    I recently switched from cable internet to at&t DSL. I connected the DSL modem directly to the computer and followed all instructions for set up (per instruction from AT&T). Now I need to connect the DSL modem directly to the airport router to get wireless, but when I do this the computer doesn't recognize any internet source. What do I need to change to make this work?
    Thanks in advance!

    "ATT tech support helped as I got it set up in BRIDGE mode so my Apple Time Capsule could be the router."
    It sounds like you set the Time Capsule up in Bridge Mode, which would mean that the 2wire was doing the routing, not the Time Capsule.
    To verify, open AirPort Utility, click Manual Setup and click on the Internet icon. Check Connection Sharing at the bottom to see how your Time Capsule is configured.
    I don't have a dual band Time Capsule, so I can't give you a good answer about whether using the TC in bridge mode would cause problems setting up the second "guest" network.
    Since each network would require an IP address and the 2wire is assigning them, there might be an issue there. This would really be a question for Apple support or perhaps another user has configured their system this way and can provide some input.

  • HP LaserJet Pro P1606DN compatible w/ Airport Express?

    I am going to be purchasing a new Mac Pro and would like to be able to print wirelessly to a laser printer. I like the HP LaserJet Pro P1606DN, but it is not a wireless printer, per se.
    I understand after speaking with an Apple representative that a non-wireless printer (assuming it has the right drivers) can be plugged directly into the Airport Express via USB, which will allow a Mac Pro with an Airport card installed to print to it wirelessly.
    So, I have two questions:
    1) Does the HP printer mentioned above have the proper drivers (or is otherwise compatible) to work with the Airport Express?
    2) Will the configuration I mentioned above work, assuming the printer is compatible with Airport Express?
    Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    It should work just fine.  Your Mac Pro does not have to be wirelessly connected to your network for it to work, a wired connection will also work (unless the Airport Express will not be on your network but rather just stand-alone).
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • I would like to stream iTunes to my receiver, a Sony STR-DE945. Is this compatible to Airport Express?

    I would like to stream iTunes to my receiver, a Sony STR-DE945, is this compatible with Airport Express? Thank you.

    Connect a stereo cable from the 3.5mm audio out jack on the Airport Express to the L-R audio in jacks on the receiver.
    Or you can do it via an optical cable from the same 3.5mm optical out to one of the optical inputs on the receiver.

    That's what I thought too, then I bought this USB Ethernet adapter and on the package it says :

    When it was originally released it only worked with the MacBook Air which came with a special version of OS X that supported this adapter. Apple seem to have since built this support in to versions of OS X 10.6 and later for all Macs.
    If you have an older version of OS X e.g. 10.3 to 10.5 then an unofficially driver is available here http://www.sustworks.com/sb_site/downloads.html

  • Intemittent dropouts connecting through NBN Australia Skyedge2 satellite modem, via Ethernet is fine, but Airport express wireless is unreliable!

    Intermittent dropouts connecting to NBN Australia Skyedge2 satellite modem. Via Ethernet is fine, but Airport Express wireless is unreliable! In particular https and getting mail. This problem did not occur on previous Optus satellite AGBG satellite system. Is there a different mode required for AAE?

    I continue to have the problem with dropouts to satellite internet via airport express. My isp has loaned me a Linksys (Cisco) E1200 wireless router which I have connected and it works flawlessly. Maybe my AEx is faulty?

  • Problem with Airport Express and Ethernet Clients

    Hello All, I'm stumped so I hope you can help me out!
    I've got a aiport express wirelessly extending an aebs which is creating a network from my isp's router. Everything's working fine. I'm trying to add a Sonos Play5 to the airport express via the ethernet port ( I can't get the Play5 to connect wirelessly). Problems is when I plug the Sonos into the ethernet port the Sonos works fine, but everything else on the network gets booted off. I can't recconnect any of my macs or i-devices. When I  uplug the ethernet cable from the Sonos everything reconnects and works as it did before.
    I've got the airport express set to "Extend a wireless network" in the aiport utility.
    Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

    So my connectivity issues are only when I connect the Play 5 to the AX ethernet port.
    That would be the Ethernet port on the AirPort Express then, correct?
    If yes, I don't understand why other devices would work when connected to the AX and the Sonos 5 does not. All that I can think of is that the Sonos 5 might require more bandwidth than the wireless "hop" between the AEBS and AX can provide.
    In effect, the  Sonos is really connecting using wireless. You are just changing the wireless to an Ethernet connection at the AX to connect to the Sonos product.
    If that is the case, then you are going to have to pull an Ethernet cable so that the Sonos 5 connects directly to the AEBS. You can run Ethernet 300+ feet or 100 meters with virtually no loss.
    I would recommend that you check with Sonos Support to report your findings during your "tests" and ask them if there is some reason why the connection won't work over wireless.
    Please report on your findings.

  • Can I have cable modem connected to iMac but shared with Airport Express?

    I have my internet access to my iMac through a cable modem wired to the Mac. I use the Airport Express to play music from the Mac wirelessly to my stereo. Can I then share the internet access I have on the iMac through the AX without actually connecting the modem to the AX? The wiring is easier to get to the Mac than it would be to get wiring from the cable modem to the Airport Express at the stereo. I want to be able to access the internet wirelessly from a PC laptop that I also have.
    Thanks

    Yes, you can do that. Using the AirPort Utility, you would set the AirPort Express up to create a wireless network giving it whatever name you want. When it gives you an error message that nothing is connected over ethernet, you can click the button to ignore that message and it will perform as you are requesting.
    Note that if your internet connection stops working when you do this, then you may need to change your network port priority so ethernet is higher than AirPort.

  • Add additional ethernet ports with airport express

    Is there a way to add an additional ethernet port to an airport express via a router or some other option? I have a need for two devices using ethernet next to the airport express.
    Thanks,
    Guy Gadois

    If you want the AX to connect wirelessly to a network and then connect Ethernet clients to the AX's Ethernet port, read Tesserax's post above. This requires WDS.
    If you want to connect the AX to an Internet source and also have Ethernet clients you want to connect to that Internet source, read my post above. This is not possible using only the AX. You need a router with 2 or more Ethernet ports unfortunatley the AX only has one.
