(Free) Agen Schmitz 15 comments AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.9. I am glad to get one of them updated since my expectation was that they were leaving the Airport Express in the dust. AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.8.1 Patches security vulnerabilities on AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express, and Time Capsule base stations with 802.11n Wi-Fi. Personally, I only have one 2012 Airport Express and 2 that are older. And Apple promised to continue offering service and parts for AirPort Base stations for the.

I wasn't sure where they pulled that info, so I didn't include it in my initial post. (Firmware is the software that lives in your Airport Extreme base station and tells it what to do.) Thankfully, you can tell your Airport Extreme router to go. Apple releases AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.8.1. I saw on Mac Rumors that is was 2012 and later devices.

If you are investor, you might prefer what they are doing now since it is cultivates the best selling and most profitable segment of their business. If it was divisional, they would have more management ownership of performances of their divisions, but it also might mean some of the best aspects of Apple's ecosystem would have taken a hit because a VP of Mac might not be as interested in continuity features. There is a lot more detail about their organizational structure at the link below, but it is "functional" rather than "divisional": Of course, you can't blame them because iPhones and iOS support a lot of the rest of their services and accessories.

Their goal is typically how to make iOS and iPhone's better.

Many companies employ more divisions that work as separate entities (more fragmented) and Apple is more likely to have everyone working with one goal. They aren't fragmented enough if you want better products across the board. Amazing just how much things have been dumbed down over time, hopefully not US as well!Ĭlick to expand.Personally, I think it is just the opposite. The old PC version has TONS of data and settings, including access to a complete device log showing every connection and configuration even in the history of the particular AirPort device selected. The only guy who looks to be (maybe) included for the AirPlay update is the last of the Mohicans: the A1392 AirPort Express.īTW: firing up AirPort Utility on my PC is a stark reminder of just how much functionality has been lost over the years in the macOS/OSX/IOS versions of the utility. AppleTVs, including the latest tvOS crop (the fat boys), can only connect to an existing WiFi network, not provide one of their own and are, therefore, not configurable at all via AirPort Utility so no update for them either.

The Time Capsules (and AirPort Extremes) are basically WiFi routers/switches without audio/video capability, so they're excluded from the AirPlay update. Looks like you may well be right only A1392 AirPort Expresses need apply for the 7.8 update. UPDATE: Nope, PC's AirPort Utility running under Windows XP reports no update available for ANY of my Time Capsules or A1264 AirPort Expresses.
