Well ... this is kinda pathetic: me, asking others if I should buy something. Anyway, I don't come
to a conclusion arguing this thru with myself so I wanted to ask you if you would buy one if you
were in my situation.
- I already have a Linksys router at home, broadcasting wireless. When I am on my desk, I plug in
the internet cable, tho because the reception is bad because of thick walls at home.
- I am a frequent flyer and I have about 5 intercontinental / around the world trips per year. I
stay in hotels quite often and I use their wired/wireless connection when available.
- I do not have a stereo or so, only a JBL creature system.
- Nobody but me on the network prints on my printer and I don't even have it plugged in most of the
time.
Buying an Airport Express would give me a good net reception in my study room so I would not need
the cable anymore. Plus: I could take it with me when I am on my travels. If I plug in my JBL's to
the Airport Express, does it also have the option to playback videos on VLC over wireless or is it
just iTunes sounds?
On the other side, I am not sure whether the benefits justify the investment :)
Birmingham International Airport last week released its 2007-2008 Report and Accounts (pdf) - an
engrossing 33-page read which explains why the facility "increasingly offers a high-quality
alternative for those Midlands passengers who currently fly from other airports, to travel
instead from Birmingham"....
Hello board,
I really need your help, I have 2, well almost 2 ibook's G4's 12's, is 1.33 and the other is
unknown.
The 1.33 worked great except the fact the wireless didn't/NEVER worked, I read online that it's a
common problem.
the other one has a broken screen, forgot the addm password, can't login into user mode to reset,
it has a 30GB HD, Airport card under the keyboard and the ghz is unknown 4/2004 build date I
think.
THIS IS ALL OVER AIRPORT/WIRELESS...
So I wanted to swap the screen from the 1.33 "working great" move that over the older G4 along with
the HD.
The screen's cable were both the 20 pin harness, but nothing worked when I did the big swap.
Also the HD from the 1.33 had some sort of adaptor on the HD pin's, both has the same amount pins
in the same places, but had the adaptor on the 1.33.
The other G4 had a plug that looked like this. http://www.thebookyard.com/images/ig4hdcab12.jpg
The newer one 1.33 has a different plug, and only used the large row of pins and the older used all
the pins on the HD, so that's the way I hook the HD's up.
Also in the processes I broke the power button wire plug off at the logic board on the 1.33, this
really suck's, but I now know why my computer wouldn't start up after the swap.
I'm going to get some liquid solder pen and fix it that way.
So my Q's are...
1. Can swap the screen from the "Good" 1.33 and move over to the other one or do I have to swap
over the display data cable too?
Both have the same 20 pin plug, but the wiring don't match.
2. Can I swap over the HD's are all ATA HD's the same?
CWR-635M, c'est le doux nom de ce clone appliqué des bornes Airport Express d'Apple, un clonage en règle signé CNet Technology. Pas encore
beaucoup de détails, sinon que l'engin offre deux ports Ethernet et deux ports USB et qu'il
affiche quantités de LED de fonctionnement qui réussissent...
Roughly 3 months ago, the internal sound on my powerbook g4 (1.67GHz 1GB ram) stopped working
efficiently. A red light started emerging from the headphone jack. I read everywhere, tried the
tooth pick, tried as much as possible. Still doesn't work. I get bits of sound here in there for a
second or two but that's it. This all arose mysteriously when I got and setup an airport express
for airtunes. Streaming music works fine, just no headphones or internal speakers.
Now about two months ago, my cpu started becomeing extremely bogged down with % user at 100%.
Sorting by cpu usage, generally loginwindow and usereventagent will hog a ton of cpu around 30-60
each on average, core audio will jump in along with kernal_task and will briefly lag horribly
around 30 - 40 as well. Simple tasks such as playing a chess game will consume 50-60 of my cpu.
soo annoying. my hd has currently 22.28 of 93 GB free
hello everybody I'm looking to buy an airport express soon. I was wondering if you can use the
Ethernet port on the express to connect an Xbox 360 using a Ethernet cord? I will use the express
in conjunction with an airport extreme.

Listen up, KIRF fans. We've got a real unique one
on our hands today, as this critter copies not one, but two entities in a single fell
swoop. For starters, the company is named CNet Technology -- we'll let you do the math there -- and
secondly, this thing looks just about exactly like Apple's own AirPort Express. Sure,
there are a few extra LEDs on there to really ugly it up, but only someone in serious denial would
ever say this thing didn't get its inspiration from Cupertino. Officially dubbed the CWR-635M, this
portable router / WAP simply plugs into one's wall socket and provides a pair of Ethernet jacks and
two USB ports locally for even more networking fun. There's no telling if this copycat will ever be
released on US soil, but given that made it into the FCC's database, we reckon anything is
possible.Read | Permalink | Email

I'm trying to set up a wireless network with an Airport Express, I plugged it in like it says to,
soon after it starts to flash the amber light. The setup guide tells me to diagnose it via Airport
Utility, but the Express doesn't show up there.
"Imagine this -- you, sitting in a dingy airport terminal waiting on your flight with a
lifeless laptop and just 10 minutes to spare. You've got oodles of spreadsheet work to do before
8:00AM tomorrow, and unless you get it done on this flight, you're fubared. Toshiba is looking to
make said scenario seem like one that's not so grim, as its prototype SCIB (Super Charge Ion
Battery) purportedly has the potential to get 90% full in just 10 minutes."
I've been traveling a lot lately and can really appreciate the need for something like this. This
will be a killer feature that hopefully Toshiba will license out for all sorts of devices. Of
course the cynic in me thinks that technology like this would be kept out of the marketplace in
order to maintain the market for extra batteries.

Where has the control gone in the Menu Bar where you can mount the Disk connected to you AirPort
Extreme? It read, Show AirPort Disks in the menu bar, but it is no longer there. It was quite nice
having that there.
I have an Imac, connected wirelessly to Time Capsule/Airport. When looking at my signal I mostly
get ONE bar, sometimes none and I have no idea how to fix it. Very rarely the connection speed/bar
signals go up to 3 or 4, but then go down after a short while again.
I tried the following already:
i) placed my MBA right BEHIND the Imac and it got 5 bars (and double connection/download speeds).
Network settings on both are identical.
ii) tried to strengthen network through placing a Airport Express as relay in the middle of the
distance ... no impact.
So I am assuming it has to do with the Imac settings/hardware.
As I am still pretty new to the lovely Macworld I truly appreciate your help on this :)
Here's what i have running.
A 4 year old powerbook which always connects just fine to the internet, with no dropping of the
signal.
A new imac with a airport extreme built in. It regularly just drops the internet connection, even
though the internet is seen perfectly by the other maching.
Router is a standard netgear router virgin media provide.
Periodically, and some days it will be totally fine, but mostly on the weekends (like now) the
signal on the imac just drops out (from perfect 4 bars, to none) and i lose access to the internet
on this machine (very annoying when you are trying to talk to someone on skype!). after some time
it reappears, only to drop out again.
I have reset the modem to automatically select a wireless channel, but that seems to have done
nothing. So following the advise on other chats here, i set the channel to 10. However the problem
remains. I thought, well, maybe its the wireless phone, or the microwave, but these do not seem to
affect the internet connection to the powerbook g4. The software updater for the "airport utility"
claims it is up to date.
And now i am totally lost as to what to do! Any sugestions?

a similar manner, huh?

Like an anorexic fashion model, Apple's new super-thin MacBook Air has made too many compromises
for the sake of being skinny.
For example:
1. 80GB iPod hard drive being used as a system drive. It's 4200 RPM slow and after years of
encouraging people to amass a horde of digital media, how can Apple really expect people to fit
their iTunes library, digital videos and so on onto 80GB? With notebook hard drive capacities
topping 500GB in a single 2.5" drive, surely Apple's customers would have preferred a slightly
thicker form factor with a beefier drive?
2. Non-expandable memory: 2GB of RAM soldered onto the motherboard... sure, that's a lot of RAM
today, but if I were buying a notebook worth between $AUD2500 and $AUD4300, I'd sure as hell want
the ability to add some extra RAM in later to cater for future Mac OS X upgrades, virtualisat
