I have recently se up a Spotify POS with 2xiPads and 2xAirport Express linked to a WiFi router using Star 143lan printers.
The first Express works fine, the second constantly seems to loose the network connection, could that be that they are using the same IP address, if so how can I change that.
Bothe printers have the same name in the software
airport express-OTHER
It is near impossible to figure out your problem without explicit info ..
What model are the express?
What model is the main WiFi router?
2xAirport Express linked to a WiFi router
How are they linked.. by wireless or by ethernet.. to each other.. is one extending wireless from the other.
Split the answer into two parts..
The express that works ok..
And the express that does not work.
A screenshot from your airport utility will help loads.
could that be that they are using the same IP address, if so how can I change that.
Most unlikely.. as long as both are setup with DHCP then NO it cannot happen. If you setup static IP on the device.. then duplicate IP would be your own mistake.
Bothe printers have the same name in the software
Change the name of one of the printers.. you cannot have to identically named items.. but the network is likely smart enough to add a (1) to second unit.
