Getting Started

Congratulations on purchasing AirPort Express. Read this
guide to get started using it.

You can use AirPort Express to share your broadband Internet access with wireless

computers on your network, play iTunes music on your home stereo, and much more.

Your AirPort Express comes with AirTunes, a way to play iTunes music through remote

speakers.

With AirPort Express, you can:

Â

Create a wireless network in your home, and then connect to the Internet and share

the connection with up to ten computers simultaneously. An entire family can be

connected to the Internet at the same time.

Â

Connect AirPort Express to your home stereo or powered speakers and use AirTunes

to play your iTunes music on your home stereo from a Macintosh with an AirPort or

AirPort Extreme Card, or a compatible Windows XP or Windows 2000 wireless

computer.

Â

Set up a wireless connection to your Ethernet network. AirPort and AirPort Extreme-

equipped Macintosh computers or Windows XP or Windows 2000 computers can

then have access to an entire network without being connected with a cable.
