Why Apple's Airport Express May

Even though Apple is claiming on their website that the new Airport Express can only act as a network range extender (signal repeater) with other Airport devices (look at the bottom of this page), WiFi Networking News's Glenn Fleishman explains why the Airport Express may just work with some non-Apple devices after all:

Apple's AirPort Express looks like a good product, but it seems to be suffering from a case of over-integration (i.e. it does too many things). I think it would help if Apple gave a set of use cases (with pictures).

airport_express_2.jpg imageArs Technica's Eric Bangeman gives the Apple Airport Express a good once-over, testing it not only in its primary job as an 802.11g access point, but all the additional features (like streaming iTunes music, extending the range of an existing network, and printer sharing) as well. And all the extra functionality is what ultimately makes him a man happy with his purchase. As a combo device the Airport Express is worth the $129, he says, but for people who only need a single aspect of its ability, cheaper options are available (they just aren't small and white).

Oh, and for the record, Bangeman was able to use the Airport Express as a wireless bridge (WEP only, no WPA) with a Linksys WRT54G wireless router, so mixing the Express with non-Apple hardware is an option, even if it isn't an Apple-supported one.

Apple's AirPort Express


Apple's AirPort Express 06/07/2004 10:23 PM

Apple introduced today the new AirPort Express wireless doodad. The AirPort Express (can I call it the APE for short?) is a little white wall-wart-sized brick that can be used for several things, most notably streaming your iTunes music -- mp3, CD, or Internet Radio -- wirelessly from your Mac to your home stereo. That's called AirTunes.

Enjoy your iTunes music library in virtually any room of your house. Share a single broadband Internet connection and USB printer without inconvenient and obtrusive cables. Create an instant wireless network on the go. Extend the range of your current wireless network. How many devices do you need to do all this? Just one.

In typical Apple fashion, the APE is simple and straight to the point, and will be an attractive option for a wide variety of users, because it can do a wide variety of things and because it's very portable. It's based on the 802.11g wireless standard, and should work with just about any 802.11g hardware out there, not just Apple's own. Sounds like it will even work with the Winders version of iTunes.

Priced at $129. I think I can swing that!

AirPort Express: Three Views


AirPort Express: Three Views 07/22/2004 06:09 PM
Apple's AirPort Express may quickly become one of the most reviewed pieces of new wireless technology: It will receive many reviews for several reasons, including the fact that it's the smallest Wi-Fi gateway (when you include its built-in power supply); it's the only one to stream audio in the particular way it does; it includes several interesting features in one wrapper; it's relatively cheap for any two of its four unique set features*. It's also from Apple and had 80,000 pre-orders, so it's a natural. (Amazon.com now shows it not first arriving until August 1, and other sources indicate a three-week backorder. But the Apple Store in Seattle says they should have another supply any day now.) I've been working with an AirPort Express for a few days, and it's just about as easy to setup and use as Apple promises. There are no obscure settings. Joining an existing AirPort Extreme network was a snap. So was reconfiguring it as a base station and assigning it a WPA encryption key. So was playing music through its attached speakers from any copy of iTunes anywhere in our wired/Wi-Fi office. My officemates threatened to play strange music into the speakers in my office, as any copy of iTunes can use any set of AirPort Express speakers on a network unless you password protect access to the speakers. Three reviews check in today from well-respected sources. David Pogue walks through the pros and cons of the device in The New York Times, and comes down reasonably heavy on the pro side. He misses having a remote control and notes that it's odd you can't play through several sets of speakers at once each connected to their own AirPort Express as you can with other devices. The total of the parts in one well-designed package adds to a winner for him, however. He notes that you'd need two or three other devices to come close to the Express--and in that comparison, he leaves out the Express's client mode (to connect for streaming/printer sharing to any Wi-Fi network) and its USB printer sharing, which is an expensive stand-alone add-on for 802.11g networks. Walt Mossberg's take was substantially more negative because of a few flaws he felt were significant. He finds the lack of a remote-control a total showstopper, and I admit that that was one of my reactions on first hearing about AirTunes streaming music....
