Q: I have a pc and Airport Express.  Connect cable modem via Ethernet to Airport Express.  Nothing is working

Hi,

I'm refreshed a Windows 10 installation for a neighbor's PC. Airport Express was working before.  Connected cable modem via Ethernet to Airport Express and plugged in speaker .  Nothing is working. I  copied her iTunes from a backup.  Airport Express device is just blinking yellow.  Using Comcast cable modem.

 

Please advise.

 

Thanks,

    A "blinking" amber status LED on the AirPort Express typically indicates that there is something wrong with the base station's configuration. Updating the Windows OS on your neighbor's PC should have nothing to do with network setup of her cable modem & AirPort Express.

     

    What is the make & model of her Comcast-provided modem? What exact model of Express does she have?
