![]() ![]() I am disconcerted to see this is actually the recommendation the Case "closed" link above provides, since it does not work for me. My home networking policy already includes giving static IP addresses to any permanently connected network device, namely because DHCP service implementation too often reveals flaky on all routers I tried from different vendors (LinkSys, D-Link & Netgear devices) sometimes giving out the same address to different clients, sometimes denying service altogether!) ![]() I got the same problem with AE, firmware v6.3, set in client mode to a D-Link DI-624 router (latter does not support WDS, hence AE in client mode), WPA2 security, except it does persist with static IP address set up on the AE If it fails to do so, it will still display a green light. It looks like it does indeed disconnect from the network and then tries to reconnect. May 22 11:28:10 Severity: 5ĝisconnected from network.

This is the log file, shortly after the AAX has been running for 30 minutes. This is the setup: AAX, Firmware 6.1.1, operating in client mode in a WEP-encrypted network, network configuration by DCHP, AirTunes enabled. Rinse, repeat every dozen of hours or so. My AAX drops off the network while still displaying a green LED that says: "I am fine." However, it isn't. It desperately needs a better way to communicate its current state. What's the deal? I think that the Apple Airport Express (AAX) is broken by design. It now has happened a number of times, so I am posting my issues now here at vowe's magic flying circus to give Google an opportunity to catch it. What do you think Apple does with error reports in their forum? Admit that they have a problem? Forget it. If you wish to use the music streaming feature of AirPort Express base stations, look for "raop" in the AUR.Apple Airport Express dropping off the network by Volker Weber If you want to emulate the AirPort Express, take a look at Shairport Sync. If that is not an option, you basically have two things to try: either run the desktop version of AirPort Utility in Wine, or use airport-utils. If you or a friend has an iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad lying around, this is probably the most hassle-free way to configure your AirPort base station. The second way is to use the AirPort Utility app on an iOS device. The first is using the desktop application, which is shipped with all Macs as a part of macOS and can be downloaded separately for Windows. Traditionally, AirPort base stations can be configured two ways, both of which require applications from Apple - AirPort base stations do not have web interfaces, unlike most routers. All AirPort models have the ability to share printers on the network (through the USB port), and all AirPort models support up to 50 users. The AirPort Time Capsule is essentially the AirPort Extreme, but with a 2-3 TB hard drive added, depending on which model you buy. The AirPort Extreme name was originally intended to signify the addition of the 802.11g protocol to these products.Īpple sells a number of AirPort models: AirPort Express, AirPort Extreme, and AirPort Time Capsule. ![]() These products comprise a number of wireless routers and wireless cards. AirPort is the name given to a series of Apple products using the (Wi-Fi) protocols (802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n and 802.11ac). ![]()
