Why won't my airport express turn on after thunder storm ?

Why won't my airport express turn on?

There are three Airport resets, soft, hard and factory default.  It would probably be beneficial if you tried each one in sequence.  Actually, you could jump to the factory default reset if you don't mind reconfiguring from scratch.
If none of the above helps, you may well have a harware problem.

  • Why won't my airport express allow internet connection on TV blu ray? I have internet connection on iMac

    Why won't my Airport Express allow internet connection on my Blu Ray when there is internet connection on my IMac?

    I'm guessing you only have the modem/router supplied by your isp and the Airport Express.  Is the Airport Express connected to the modem/router with an ethernet cable?  If not, plug one end of the cable into an available port on the modem/router and the other end in to the WAN port, indicated with a dashed circle, on the Airport Express.
    Have a nice day.

  • Why won't my airport express keep its connection?

    Why won't my airport express keep its connection?

    What is the AirPort Express not keeping a connection to? Another wireless router or your MacBook Pro?

  • Why won't my airport express work with iPad and iPhone?

    I have my internet line coming into the basement. Its been hardwired from the basement modem to an airport extreme upstairs, but we sleep in the basement and the wifi is bad. I have a 1st gen airport express. So my idea was to put the extreme down with the modem, and run the hardwire to the express upstairs. I did this and my laptops and iMac got the same signal as when the extreme was upstairs, but my iPad mini and iPhone only have two bars unless you stand 5 feet from the express. Macs get about 48mbps, iDevices about 20mbps. 15 feet away on the porch the iPad won't even pick up the signal. The apple store advised I put the extreme back upstairs, and the express downstairs wirelessly. They said the iDevices may have been ignoring the express and trying to get the signal from the extreme in the basement.
    Is there any way to use the express and the extreme to get solid signals up and downstairs? My fear is apple once again boned me and wants me to buy a new express.

    If it's the original b/g only model its model number will be A1084 or A1088. It appears in the red box as shown below:
    To configure one of them requires an older version of AirPort Utility. Check its model number.
    It should not be necessary to connect it to your Mac with an Ethernet cable. Connect it directly to the Extreme, "hard reset" it again if necessary, then launch AirPort Utility.
    It should appear in your Mac's Wi-Fi menu as "New AirPort Express...". Select that and proceed to answer the questions.
    The AirPort Utility setup page with the words "using Ethernet" is as shown:
    Its appearance in AirPort Utility will show it connected to the Extreme with a solid (not dashed) line.

  • Why won't my airport express work with sky router

    Im not sure if its possible but i am trying to connect my Airport Express to my Sky (G) router so i have a better wifi signal in the bedroom the other side of my house, will sky routers not actually work with anything not supplied by Sky or is this rubbish? Any help would be great please?

    will sky routers not actually work with anything not supplied by Sky or is this rubbish?
    A Sky Support Forum could probably best answer that question.
    We can say that the AirPort Express can only "extend a wireless network" using wireless only provided that the "main" network is being produced by an Apple router. As far as we know, the Express is not compatible for this purpose with routers from other manufacturers.

  • Why won't my airport express work as a network extender since upgrading to iOS 6?

    I have the AirPort Extreme as my. Network and the airport express set up as my network extender. However, since I upgrade everything to IOS6 my airport express is no longer acting as the network extender. How can I fix this issue?

    I have an iMac, iPad, Apple TV and Panasonic tv on my network. The apple tech when I first bought the extreme 2 months ago had me set up the extreme as the main network and the. Airport express in a different part of my home as the extender to my network so we could use the wifi outside to my entertainment area and now to get wifi outside since upgrading my devices I can only get wifi outside if to stand next to the back door.

  • Why won't my airport express work with the latest iTunes, the airport shows green but there is no icon in iTunes any longer, what has gone wrong, desperate!!

    Airport Express used to work with iTunes v11 but now with v12 there is no sign of the little icon that used to appear over the volume button.  The Airport is finding the network, nothing has changed bar the version of iTunes, what should I do??

    A friend has helped me solve this problem, in my case it was nothing to do with Windows firewalls as some have suggested but it was simply a matter of resetting both the router and the Airport, the Airport is fairly obvious but not the router at least this was the first time I recall HAVING to reset it.

  • Why won't my macbook pro turn on after charging?

    New battery. Worked just fine both plugged in and on battery power last night. Now it won't turn on after charging for over 12 hours. Anyone experienced anything like this or should I just bring it to an apple store?

    Reset the SMC and PRAM.

    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.

  • Why won't my airport express generation 1 connect to anything any more?

    All I get is flashing green light which tells me it's trying to connect.  It's worked perfectly for years until this week.  Have Apple done some automatic updating which means it won't work any more?  As it won't initiate it won't, therefore, show on my computer so I can't 'talk' to it at all.

    I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
    Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
    Power-up your computer(s).
    In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.
    If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
    Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
    While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
    After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
    Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
    Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.

  • Why won't my Macbook Air turn on after an update?

    Hello,
    I was using my Macbook when the Internet decided to go down so I decided to run the latest update. It seemed to be working fine but as soon as it got to a certain stage on the progress bar it would just shut down, it would then chime and the bar would start to get to the same point and repeat the previous. I tried to turn it off at the power button and turn the volume off but it seemed that my keyboard wasn't working. Now my Macbook isn't even turning itself on and off, it seems to be completely broken and won't let me turn it on. Plus this is a fairly new Macbook and I've owned it since December.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thank you

    My son's Macbook Air would not power on after a firmware update he did this morning. Doing the following 3 times brought it back:
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected
    3. On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time
    4. Release all the keys and the power button at the same time
    5. Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • Why have all 3 airport express base stations stopped working, BT have checked and improved line still not working?

    Why have all 3 airport express base stations stopped working, other users are on ipads and BT have checked and improved line but I still have an intermittent/no connection?

    You must tell us the whole setup.. what is the main router?? How are the express connected to each other?
    On ipad it works ok?? But you are on a computer?? MBP early 2011 running Lion?? That doesn't work.. even if you are right next to the main router??
    Plugged in by ethernet does it work??
    Have you installed a wireless diagnostic program.. ?? Actually Lion has one installed but hidden I believe.
    Later version bought it to the surface.
    About Wireless Diagnostics
    If you do run Lion please install the 5.6 airport utility as it will give you loads more info on how the units are connected.. and link speeds for extend wireless.
    How to load 5.6 into later Lion & ML
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    Leave the package open on the desktop so you can see the file. AirportUtility56.pkg
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. If your Mac refuses to run the software, because it wasn’t downloaded from the Apple store, go to security in preferences and allow other software to work.. this is limitation of trade methinks. You can set back later if you like.
    Now drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. in finder, open the new directory, drill down.. applications, utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. although I have had no problems when doing so.

  • Why can't my Airport express be found by the airport utility?

    Why can't my airport express be seen by the airport utility?

    I have the same problem. 
    I have a Mac Pro OSx10.7.5, a Netgear router, A 1st gen Airport Express Model A1264 set up in Bridge Mode w/ LAN cable as Network 2 for Airplay, the iPad palys music and connects to the internet great through it. I want to extend Network 2 to another set of speakers in another room so I bought another AE A1264. "Like new"
    So far I cannot get the computer to see the new AE at all. I have tried it wired to the router, wired to the Mac, wireless near the 1st AE, I've reset it and restarted multiple times. It just isn't showing up at all. ZIP. I get a slow blinking yellow light.
    The Airport Utility "Configure Another"comes up with a Mac address I haven't seen before. I don't know if it's the new AE or not. In any case none of the passwords including "     " for a password work. It spins and I get an error message that "An error occured while reading the configuration"
    Even when it was new the first AE took some doing to be seen by my Mac which was plenty annoying since it should just pop up but it did eventually connect via LAN. Once I configured it it worked on my network.
    These things have been a real pain. Please advise.

  • After 15 mins  with no activity my airport express turns off how can I make it permanent

    After about 15 mins with no activity my airport express turns off. How can I make it stay on permanently ?

    Not sure what you mean by "turns off".  Are you saying that the light on the Express goes out after 15 minutes?
    Assuming that it is functioning correctly, the AirPort Express is "always on". It has no type of "sleep" setting.
    If the power light on the Express remains on, you have some other device on the network that is going into a standby mode or sleep mode. Check the Preference settings on other devices on the network.
