airport express

I picked up a cheap AirPort Express 802.11N with the intent of using it as a wireless-to-Ethernet bridge for an old iMac G3. I've read tutorials of how to set it up that way on modern Macs, but I only have iOS devices, and I can't find the 'Allow Ethernet Clients' setting on the iPhone version...

So here's the situation I am in. I am trying to use my AirPort express in my university dorm room but the main network uses 802.11x authentication method that the AirPort Express does not support. To fix this, my university offers a second Wi-Fi network where each device gets a unique password...

I own three Airport Express' (2nd Generation) that I use strictly as Airplay access points for speakers. All are on firmware version 7.8.1. They worked great for several years as Airplay access points. However, roughly a year ago I began noticing these devices dropping Airplay randomly. There...

My Airport Extreme died & I replaced it with an ASUS router: all good. My apt. building is old & wireless coverage is not great, so the way I had connected to my Roku in the living room from the internet access point in the 2nd bedroom was as follows: Cable modem-->router-->MoCA adapter...

I have the five and sixth generation airport wifi routers and I believe both are called AirPort Extreme. I also believe that although the sixth gen looks different and taller that it does not contain any sort of hard drive inside. With that being said, I hear that both mode also allow for an...

Hi. I've done a search of this forum, but I haven't found a definitive answer to this question. I hope someone can help. From time to time, every few weeks, the wi-fi network provided by my Airport Extreme (2nd gen) goes kaput, requiring a restart to set it right. (I never had this problem...

After getting lots of HomeKit devices running over wifi I'm getting lots of connectivity issues. Often the connection becomes insanely slow or drops completely, but only for a single device or a few devices, while the others continue at full speed. I have a 4G Huawei router with lousy wifi...

Hi everyone, I purchased a cheap A1392 Airport Express 2. It supports AirPlay 2. Great! But, does it send Dolby Digitial 5.1 (as least) over toslink? If any know, thanks for looking and replying :)

Hi guys I bought a "brand new" Airport Express v2 the other day. Completely sealed and "new" - I know it's from a few years back. I plugged it in, added to my wifi, updated the Express to SW v. 7.8.1. All good. The Express is set to join my existing network. And so it does. Issues: 1) If I...

Hey everyone! I've been a longtime Macrumors reader, but haven't posted much. Figured I'd share a project I did recently (and hope this is in the right sub!). I saw the iPod Hifi a couple years ago in person and became slightly obsessed, both with the design and the sound quality. I went on a...

I thought some might find interest in this recent project of mine. I have two of Apple's long-discontinued Airport Express (v1) devices that I've used over the years to stream music from my Mac or iOS devices to two different bookshelf systems in the house via WiFi and the AE's analog audio out...

I am using an Airport Express to extend the LAN, a cable connects it to a router (used as a switch) and the AP simply serves as a WiFi extension of the LAN, I was thinking to replace it with a Time Capsule (found some A1355 with 1TB disk for cheap) as to also have a backup device along with the...

I have two second gen. Airport Express configured to join my (non Apple) wireless network. Their only use is as AirPlay audio outputs. The units themselves function fine, (confirmed by playing audio from my iPhone), but on my iMac I am now unable to switch audio output to either of the boxes...

Apologies if this is the wrong place for this or it’s a basic question - I’ve googled but can’t find the answer. If I rip a cd at a high bitrate (say, Apple Lossless) and load it directly to my iPhone 11 Pro, then send via Airplay to an Airport Express connected via optical to an external DAC...

So I live in an apartment with a roommate and my desktop does not have a wi-fi adapter nor anything that can connect to wi-fi signals on its own. Enter my Airport Express which I've noticed will have slowdowns after prolonged use, which has lead me to want to switch to using my Airport Extreme...

I have a 2nd gen AirPort Express running 7.8.1 firmware (latest version) and keeps either disconnecting WiFi periodically or staying connected but with no internet connection even when Comcast router is working and connected to the internet. I did a Factory Reset yesterday but that did not...

Anyone else having issues with there airport time capsule or express not showing in Catalina 10.15.2 or .3 Since I updated they have disappeared in airport utility, time machine and music. So I cannot even roll back as I can no longer access the back up on time capsule. So all my airport...

Hey all! I've been meaning to figure this out for a while but I looked online today and couldn't find a solution, as far as I can tell so I'm asking you guys. I have a few iBooks and PowerBooks that don't have an AirPort Extreme card but have an original AirPort card. My current Wi-Fi base...
