I have an Airport Extreme Model A1143. Works fine. Connected Airport Express Model A1084 AFTER Airport Utility v 6 upgrades.Worked Fine.Could, for example play music from IOS devices by selecting the airport express. Unplugged Airport Express for awhile and now cannot reconnect it to network. Used to be recognized by MAC and IOS airport Utility. And I can't remember how I connected it in the first place. As I say, I connected the airport express after the Airport Utility version 6. (I always got message that this unit was not supported by the current airport utility software. But I did do it with no hacks and the like.Can't remember if I started a new network etc. One wrinkle: I did upgrade airport utility recently to 6.2 before plugging int he airport express. The Mac's airport Utility doe snot even show the airport express. The IOS airport utility says the device was previouisly part of my network. Check it is still in range etc. Or click to forget the device. Appreciate the help. Just want to hook up an older airport express that is recognized by iOS 6 and does not show up on Mac's airport utility. Thanks.
PS: Running Mac osx 10.8.2.
