Hi, That sounds like the issue. Don’t mess with the IP’s to make them the same as that will cause other issues. Do the following:
1. Go into Airport Utility for the Express. 2. Press the Edit button. 3. Press on the Wireless tab. 4. choose either “Join a Wireless Network” or “Extend a Wireless Network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu in that pane. The difference between these two has to do with whether you want the Express to re-broadcast your wireless signal or if you mostly want it for the Airport speakers. Extending your network can steal a bit of internal bandwidth, but, in most cases, you won’t notice. If all the Express is needed for is for the speaker capabilities, then choose the “Join a Wireless Network” option. 5. Follow the prompts for choosing the network to join or extend. It will ask for you to choose your home network and enter the WiFi password if you have one. All the DHCP and NAT stuff will then be disabled as they’re not needed when the Extreme is providing that service. You really don’t want multiple routers delivering DHCP info. HTH. Later...
