Q: New Airport express configured in client mode, from BT home Hub 5 , when streaming music from itunes, the AE drops off the network for 2-3 secs every 3-5 mins ,laptop shows good wi-fi signal at AE location?


My new Airport Express connected in client mode across wireless network from a BT Home Hub 5. all set up OK , able to stream music from ITunes running on a PC to the AE hard wired to a Hi-Fi amp.

After 4-5 min the AE drops off the network fo 2-3 seconds then recovers and continues for 4-5 min etc.   The wifi signal is strong as my laptop has 5/5 bars

at the AE location.

Please advise where to start fault finding?
