Can some internet/network guru please help?

I imagined that by this point in the day I would be leaning back smugly and wirelessly enjoying the latest sounds from top beat combos - not seething with anger and wanting two hours of my life back.


Can anyone offer any advice?


The plan was to connect my modem via ethernet to a powerline adaptor, then connect the other one of the powerline pair into my airport express in order to listen to 'tunes' wirelessly on Spotify (the powerline was to fix dropouts in sound I was experiencing).


So, modem working fine. Power-up powerlines.. all fine. But as soon as I make the ethernet connection to the airport express, the modem stops working. Why would this be?


Anyone..? Bueller..?

Thanks for this:


The Modem worked fine with Airport Express (set to 'join an existing network') previously. The modem works fine with the Powerline (I've tested this to make sure it's working).


I'm assuming I need to reconfigure something in the airport express - but the airport express seems to want to be reconfigured via the modem in order to work with the modem. But connecting all three disables the modem, so I can't reconfigure the AE.. I'm probably explaining this very poorly.


I did have one thought: I'm 'reconfiguring' an existing AE setup: should I be doing a factory reset of the AE - and then when I plug all three in it will start afresh and organise itself without a conflict?

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
