M9 Plus - speakers - need Airport Express for Airplay - can't connect
Hi folks,
I'm a fully Apple household. But following a lightning strike that knocked out my Airport Extreme, I replaced it and a few Airport Express units with Deco M9 Plus (two units). In the process I lost the capability to stream music to my speakers which were connected to 1 Airport Express by 3.5mm pin.
And I'd like to ask you for some help on connecting 1 Airport Express base station back to the Dec M9 Plus network so that I can reach my speakers through the Airport Express Airplay functionality.
I have tried it four times already and cannot get it right. It just does not work. Not only does it not work, it breaks the Deco M9 Plus network so that no device can reconnect to it. And then I have to reset both Deco units and set up the whole network again. After 4 times I don't feel like trying without someone else's expertise.
Has anyone else done this, and if so, did it work, and if so, how?
Thank you all.
Greg
