My Airport Express worked just fine out of the box. However, I lose all communication with Airport express with this update while attempting to use AirTunes. I have gone back to version 6.1 of the software and all works just fine again

After faithful service, suddenly, nothing - Version: 6.3, 5/15/2006 11:38AM PST

I'm reverting back to 6.1.1. I use my AE for Airtunes only and I can't get my iMac G5 2.0ghz to talk to it. I'm continually restarting, resetting and hard resetting, but it just keeps hanging. I get the green light, and sure, it's pretty, but inside I think it's just scrambled eggs. Will give the reversion a go and see if I get Airtunes back.

Purchased in April 05, my iMAC, Airport Express, and Extreme Base Station have all work well together. I did not update Airport 4.2 when it was release. Tonight I update Airport 4.2 and the new firmware for Airport Express and the Extreme Base Station. After playing music on the Express for a while (30 minutes or so) I started to notice dropouts. This never happened before. I have no clue which update, or combination of updates, triggered the dropouts. Hmmmm - just dropped out as I am typing this. Geesh, I had to restart the Express to get it going again. This will not do.
