AirPort Express &amp; MacBook Air: Since my MacBook air has not Ethernet jack, how would I configure it to work with Airport Express?

You would configure the Express wirelessly, as is usually done with any other Mac. No physical connection to a computer is ever necessary. The Express broadcasts a signal which your MBA will use to configure it with AirPort Utility located on the MBA. Although not required, you should have already updated your MBA's "AirPort Utility" to the latest version of 5.5.1 before even buying the Express. (you will recognize the signal broadcast by your Express when your MBA's AirPort card shows an "Apple Network ------", the six characters will be the last six characters of the Express's AirPort ID which will be located on the edge of the Express - you may need a magnifying glass to read them) The only required Ethernet cable to the Express would be from the modem or from the ISP's gateway device (but only if you're connecting the Express to internet access). If setting up an Express to extend the network of another Express, or an AirPort Extreme base station, or a Time Capsule, then in that case you would temporarily connect the two devices with Ethernet cable so that the Express doing the network extension could be adopted by the main base. Once that setup is completed, remove the Ethernet cable and plug the Express into the wall receptacle or electrical connection where you want it located.

I meant no, it won't work with airport/airport express. I think I said airplay.

Im not 100% about hooking it up to the ethernet because it doesn't have a USB plug anywhere. I believe it runs flash. It runs everything. I have no issue with it at all. If it doesn't then Google play will probably have it for free, unlike the Apple store.

I don't have a Macbook air, however it works fine with my iMac, and no issues with OSX.

this works with any wifi network, apple airports or routers are not required, this basically has the same technology built in that the airport express uses.

I'm running mine on an E-net port from my AirPort Extreme. It works fine with my Yosemite 10.10.2 and beta 10.10.3, Windows 7 & 8.1. I do not believe it has Wi-Fi, I share the printer off my Mac and seems to work via Wi-Fi to the Mac as a shared printer. The duplexer is pretty fast and paper doesn't curl. Hope this helps.

Alright, thank you. The reason I was wondering is because on Apple's Mac video, it said "to connect to a wireless network, you will need the Apple Airport router." Anyways, Thanks for clearing that up.

It comes with an attached cable and a usb .simply fine the port on your MacBook and plug in. Also check packing box to see if it's compatible to a Mac air. There is a possibility it is not for MacBook.

Yes. I do this quite frequently. The Airport Express must have the speakers out connected to an audio (aux) in on the stereo and the stereo must be on and set to play that input to on the speakers. From there, any airplay equipped device (computer with iTunes or iOS device) may play to the connected speakers.

I don't see why not. I found the whole set up to be a bit less than stellar and decided to switch to Apple Airport Extreme and Express. It's much easier to use and much more reliable. plug and play and it just works. You can also use two expresses or three if necessary and they'll work together seamlessly as one big network.

Yes I bought an Apple Airport Express and I set it up as a bridge. It works great!

It's hard to know how to respond, because you don't say what ports your router has - or what OS you're using.The spec is pretty complete, and yes, there is no ethernet. If this is really vital, I might try connecting this to a specific host machine (I use Firewire) and then remote mounting it on other machines. (This is easy in the mac world, and I'm sure there are Windows solutions.)Hope this helps. At least, it's probably better than, "Huh?"

I've been using an Apple Airport Express with excellent results. Easy to set up as well.

I'm not sure what bootcamp is, I have not used that. On my Mac Air it works fine for regular Ethernet and Thunderbold

It works over wifi, very simple setup procedure. Takes around 2 minutes. It however needs to be connected via Ethernet into your modem. I use an Apple AirPort Extreme.

I'm not really proficient with this network wireless stuff. My configuration is a Macbook with 802.11a,b,g,n and and Air Express which works like your router so I suspect it is a fit, but I think I looked it up on the Asus site to confirm it myself. Bad habit not to write down notes on these system upgrades.
