Hi,
I just picked up an Airport Express, and I LOVE it.
I just configured my setup like so:
Cable Modem ----> Wireless Router (network name "Joey") ---> Airport Express (via ethernet cable) ... (network name "Express")
Now, from what I can gather, I need to be on the network created by the airtunes (ie, "Express") in order to play music from this network. However, at this point I would think I have a redundant wireless network...true?
I would like to have the following:
Cable Modem ---> Airport Express
And run the wireless network from airtunes to my 3 laptops...
However, for some reason, this is not working. I followed the instructions (which are horrible) and tried to set it up as it's own network...still not working.
So, am I crazy or is it not possible to set up the Airport Express as a wireless router?
