Setting up an AirPort base station

An AirPort base station provides a Wi-Fi connection to your home, school, or small business network. You can use iPhone to set up a new AirPort Express, AirPort Extreme, or Time Capsule base station.

If the base station you want to set up isn’t listed, make sure that it has power, that you’re within range, and that it hasn’t already been configured. You can only set up base stations that are new or have been reset. Some older AirPort base stations cannot be set up using an iOS device. For setup instructions, see the documentation that came with the base station.
