I just wanna know what the airport does. Does it create a wireless, or join one, I mean, if I'm travelling, I bring my AirPort to the hotel and plug in, is it going to create a wireless?
AirPort-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.7.1)
If you are traveling with the AirPort Express, the hotel or place that you are staying will need to have an Ethernet port so that you can connect the AirPort Express using an Ethernet cable.
Then the AirPort Express can be configured to "create" a wireless network and you will have your own private wireless network with Internet access in the room.
If the hotel does not provide an Ethernet port, then having an AirPort Express along will be of no real value.
To add to Bob's excellent information, many hotels provide (some free) wi-fi hot spots (Hilton, for example, has wi-fi in all their hotels). I travel (now) with my iPad and can connect without carting my Airport Express along.
