[QUOTE="TWBuddha, post: 888465, member: 37053"] Thanks Collin... I'm running Leopard. You think it's in the network settings, huh? Probably. I remember someone saying that it couldn't find a WEP 128 if you were on 64, but when I was installing it... it only accepted 128 or 40. I checked the Linksys settings and it's a WEP 64. I've restored it a few times now. That said, I tried WPA and that didn't work, either (even disabled it, briefly). The only thing I can think (aside from that) is that... when it was going through the install, originally... it said that the Airport Express needed to update the firmware; I tried, but it failed. This was on wireless, though. I'm wondering if I should just hook up the ethernet and try to upgrade the firmware that way. I don't know, though. I'm sure you're right. How can others find the AE on other floors, yet mine can't even find it a few feet away - yet the XBox and MacBook do (so I know the signal is ok). I really want this to work. I'm a music junkie, so... if I have to try Sonos... I'll do it, but... I'm thinking AE should be fine. It's just two small rooms. One level. I appreciate the feedback... [/QUOTE]
