[QUOTE="2macs, post: 1691701, member: 245330"] Finally got the config back to original. The key was to set up the Express wirelessly with no Ethernet cable plugged into it. Configured it to "join a wireless network" in bridge mode Once it was working fine and showing in Airport Utility, Turned WiFi off on the Express, and plugged in the ENet cable to the Wan Port. The connection to the Extreme changed from dotted to solid. Changed config on the Express to "create a WiFi Network" Entered the exact same network name and WPA2 password as is on the Extreme. applied the changes, success, both Airports show service to WiFi clients. Airplay works and LAN port works. [/QUOTE]
