You will need the 802.11n version of the Express to fully support AirPlay.
If you already have an Express, check the label on the side of the device. You want to see Model No A1264....and the Express needs to be running version 7.4.2 firmware or higher.

Nice one Bob, thanks man for such a quick response. Bought one from ebay, yep thats the one A1264.
Thanks again :-)
Bob...
Why does Airport require the "n" version for Airplay. Up until three days ago, my WiFi was b/g with a ten-year old Westell router/modem and Airplay worked flawlessly.
You must have missed the part where I said fully support.
Check the Apple Support document for all the details:
OK. I'll rephrase...
Up until three days ago, my WiFi was b/g with a ten-year old Westell router/modem and Airplay worked flawlessly. It supported Airplay fully except that I could not stream music to an Airport Express, which makes sense because I didn't own an Airport Express.
Honestly, I wouldn't think of mentioning that limitation without giving the explanation. The lack of full support is significant only for those that intend to stream music to the Express.
Maybe you are thinking of AirTunes? The question was about AirPlay.
Nope. I meant AirPlay exactly as detailed in the link that you provided except, of course, streaming music to an Airport Express unit obviously because I didn't have an Express unit.
My answer stands. If you wish to provide more details about the original question that has already been answered, please feel free to do so.

Yes and, if the OP intended to stream music to an Express, you helped him.

If the OP did not intend to stream music to an Express, you needlessly inconvenienced him.
