[QUOTE="Collin Bl, post: 994169, member: 95994"] Welcome to the Forum. Macs always strive for a quality connection and i am reasonably sure the Machine Address Code is locked into address details for the Network, so if you have 2 Networks in your MacBook Network Prefs for the same Airport then if it locks onto the MAC of the old Network u wont get on. Now it will be a good plan to go into Sys Prefs > Network > to saved Networks and this varies a bit depending on which OS u are on - always good to post that info when looking for help as more details can be given - and remove previous Networks from your MacBook. When in your position it is probably better to use a ethernet lead to connect to your Airport Express directly to your MacBook and then run Airport Utility and do the set up again. Be a little patient as it will take a few moments for it to show in the AU. By starting over having got rid of all old Networks there will be less potential for hang ups but the cost is having to rejoin with PCs and others. [/QUOTE]
