![]() Scoping out modern extenders, I see they only have ethernet jacks, perhaps all of an "IT OUT" variety: which sounds like they only work in one direction? I used the receiver's audio output jack and the audio jack on the Airport Express to make the connection. They are wired to a ☑3 year old Onkyo AV receiver (without USB or Ethernet jacks, but with audio and HDMI out jacks). I used the Express not so much to extend wifi signal (though it likely helped) but as a way to add ceiling speakers in our kitchen to the wireless network to be able to play audio from iOS devices over these speakers. No Airport Extreme I discovered means no functioning Airport Express. What to replace my Airport Express with? I've just swapped out my Airport Extreme router (400Mbps max) for an xFi Gateway: 600Mbps max. It would be great if I could set it up as a Wi-Fi extender (bridge) for my BT Smarthub. Thank you. In this mode it will stream from Airplay on my iPhone to the speaker - and it sounds great!īut it’s a pain having to lose the internet to do it and it doesn’t seem very stable. Nonetheless, I can make it work using Airplay by ignoring all three status messages and coming off my Wi-Fi network and joining the Airport Express network. I have set it up in what seems to be a standalone Wi-Fi network with no internet connection (the amber light keeps flashing) and there are three status messages shown in Airport Utility (Ethernet unplugged, no internet connection and no DNS server). I want to use it wirelessly if possible so I don’t have to lay an Ethernet extension cable. Still it did download the latest firmware. But I couldn’t get it to join the network (amber light flashing). I’m having trouble setting up the AirPort Express to link with my BT Smart Hub? I’ve updated the firmware by temporarily plugging it in via an Ethernet cable to my BT Smart Hub. I can, but only in what seems to be a standalone network. I have connected an old B&O speaker to my Apple AirPort Express using the audio socket in the hope that I can use Airplay to stream to the speaker. ![]() ![]() Can I connect my AirPort Express to my BT Smart Hub wirelessly?
