Hello!
I recently found an old AirPort Express in my closet, and was gonna use it to expand my Wi-Fi network.
I tried plugging it in, and nothing. The light was not illuminating as well.
Is there anything I can do about this?
Thanks!
AirPort
The Express is dead if the indicator light will not illuminate.
You could try online "miracle" cures like slapping the Express with the palm of your hand or placing the Express in the freezer for an hour, but none of these things ever worked for me.
For what it's worth....even when the Express is working it can only "extend" the network provided by another Apple router. It will not "extend" the network of a 3rd party router.

Thank you! I understand, and I will look into Wi-Fi extenders from my internet provider. I should accept that the AirPort brand is dead anyways.
