Dec 28, 2013 7:06 AM in response to NiceSpinnerby Bob Timmons,Please locate the model number on the side of the Express. It starts with an "A" followed by four numbers.
A 1st Gen AirPort Express is model number A1264.
Is this what you have?

Dec 28, 2013 9:03 AM in response to NiceSpinnerby Bob Timmons,A1088 is not a 1st Gen Express "n" wireless device, so that might help explain the issue here.
The much older version of the Express that you have cannot be administered by the newer operating systems on Macs.....Mavericks, Mountain Lion, and Lion.....which will work with the 1st Gen A1264 Express.
If you have an older Mac running the Leopard (10.5.x) or Snow Leopard (10.6.x) operating systems, or a PC, you can use one of those computers to configure and administer the older Express model.
