I'm specifically looking for something to use in our office. We have an airport express setup so it would need to have an audio-in jack to receive music from the express. I'm tired of the tinny sound but only have authorization for $100.
My main router is an Airport Extreme. I recently bought a Blu-ray player that only has wired internet (Ethernet-port). Since it is inconvenient to get a cable from the Extreme to where the Blu-ray player is standing I want an Express to share its wireless connection with the Blu-ray player via its Ethernet-port. Is this possible?
I've been waiting for the Airport Express for quite a while already (Since 2009, I think.). I haven't purchased it yet though because i have been waiting for the next refresh since the price is quite high for such a device (Can't get it refurbished - don't have eBay and Craiglist here.). Any predictions for the next refresh?
For what it does $70 on the apple website doesn't seem bad, but I realized that the product is about 2 years old. Is apple going to make a new (better) one? Should I buy the old model off of ebay/amazon.com? If I could get it for only $50 that would be sweet, but the more I look, the more it seems that it's just the same to get it from the Apple website. Thoughts? I would be using it as a router, possibly for wireless printing, and definitely for the wireless music hookup. Anyone have...
I've bought an AirPort Express in order to stream music from iTunes to my stereo. I've set up the Express in client mode in order to join my wireless network already in place. Now I have a problem with my internet connection when the Express is joining the existing wireless network i.e. the internet is killed when Express is working. After the Express is plugged off and the router is restarted, the internet connection is ok. Do you have any ideas how to make these two devices to work...
I am presently using XP and a Linksys Wireless Router. I do not want to disconnect the Linksys router and use the Airport Express for it's Airtunes capabilities only - I have an ITouch wihich has the ITunes remote function. My stereo is in another room and I wanted to know if I can connect to my wireless network (using WEP Encryption) I have 'general' knowledge of computers. Also, does the Express need to be connect via ethernet during initial set up? Thank you Jason
I have searched and tried a few things but the question is simple - Does anyone know if I can run this as a print server with straight forward WEP network?
I've been having some weird problems with my Express (802.11n). I obviously want it operating at its optimal settings, but when I try using it in 802.11n (5GHz) mode, the range of the Express drops down to an unusable level. Unless I'm in the same room as the device, I can't get any signal. Curiously, when I run it in 802.11n (b/g compatible) mode, the range is great. Anyone experienced anything similar/have any suggestions?
My girlfriend keeps unplugging my Airport Express N because it's "hot". While it is definitely on the high side of warm, I don't consider it to be much of a danger. It's not like you'd burn yourself touching it. Does everyone's run the same way?
Does any one else have a problem with their Express losing connectivity for a couple seconds and then coming back on? Mine has been doing this for a while now and I'm not sure if it's just because of my POS Netgear router, or some setting or the Express itself. Thanks!
I'd love to hear from someone who uses an Airport Express as a range extender with an Airport Extreme as their main router. I've got the new dual band Extreme, and it works much faster than my old router. I do use a non 802.11n device on my network (my iPhone), so I'm wondering if I would lose the dual band benefits if I added the Express onto my existing network. I want to use the new router for AirTunes, and add a printer to the USB port.
