Faster is better
Now with blazing 802.11n, the affordable AirPort Express is powerful enough to run a Wi-Fi, but small enough to take on the road. Here are some of the ways you can integrate into your home.
Music
AirTunes takes the music from the iTunes library on your computer and sends it wirelessly to any stereo or speakers in your home. All you have to do is plug your AirPort Express into an electrical outlet near those speakers, then connect with an audio cable. In iTunes, you can choose which speakers you want your music to play – in your den, living room or bedroom. If you have more than one AirPort Express connected to speakers, you can play the same music on all speakers at the same time to create a home music experience. Plus, if you already have a wireless network in place, you can use AirPort Express to add music to its capabilities.
Wireless Printing
With wireless printing via Airport Express, it is almost like having a printer in every room of the house. AirPort Express uses the Mac and PC compatible Bonjour networking technology to enable everyone in the house take advantage of one centrally available printer. Wirelessly, of course. If all you want to do is access the USB printer wirelessly, you do not even need a broadband Internet connection. You can simply set up your AirPort Express for wireless printing and that’s it.
