Tips and Troubleshooting

37

On a computer using Windows 2000 or Windows XP, hold the pointer over the wireless

connection icon until you see your AirPort Network Name (SSID), and choose it from

the list if there are multiple networks available.

3

Open AirPort Admin Utility (in Applications/Utilities on a Macintosh, and in Start > All

Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows XP or Windows 2000).

4

Select your AirPort Express and click Configure.

5

In the dialog that appears, make the following changes:

Reset the AirPort Express password.

Turn encryption on to activate password protection for your AirPort network. If you

turn on encryption, enter a new password for your AirPort network.

6

Click OK.

AirPort Express restarts to load the new settings.

Your AirPort Express Isn’t Responding

Try unplugging it and plugging it back in to a power outlet.

If your AirPort Express stops responding completely, you may need to reset it to the

factory default settings. This erases all of the settings you’ve made and resets them to

the settings that came with the AirPort Express.
