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.

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.
