I'm confused, I thought the the phone is communicating with the Airplay reciever (Zeppelin, airport express, etc), not the isp/wireless router. Can't one configure a wireless network between a Zeppelin and an iphone with no isp, or am I wrong about this?


I have thought about compatibility too, since my issue is with iP4S + AP Express (g). I was considering buying an apple TV (n) or a new AP express (n). But it appears this issue is more complex.

Thinking about this some more, I'm betting the following configurations dont work:


4S --)) Incompatable Router --)) Zeppelin Air

4S --)) Incompatable Router --- or --)) AP Express---stereo


And these do:


4S --)) Compatable Router --)) Zeppelin Air

4S --)) AP Express --)) Zeppelin Air

4S --)) Compatable Router --)) AP Express---Stereo

4S --)) AP Express---Stereo and any Router



--- hard wired

--)) wireless

I'm willing to bet everbody who connect their phone's wifi to an Apple wireless system (Express/Time Capule) are golden.


Everyone else is suspestable to a conflict with a third party router. I have an Express but my phone connect to the ISP gateway. I'll switch to connect to the AP Express tonight and report back.

My network is 4S to Time Capsule to Airport Express.


Thusly:


4S --)) Time Capsule --)) AP Express---stereo


No third party gear.
