I'm trying to get a dynex DX-E402 to join my airport express

Go to ->link.

no, you do not need software for your router, you need manual. there is no router which need software installed on the computer. try download manual from this site:

This isn't the exact same model, but it should get you headed in the right direction. http://www.retrevo.com/support/Dynex-DX-E401-Routers-manual/id/8352ag821/t/2/
Good Luck!

The default userrname and password for the DX-E402 router are "admin" for both fields, so as long as they have not been changed, you should be able to log in by going to 192.168.1.1 in your web browser and entering the username and password.

GO HERE www.portforward.com theres instructions there on how to forward your router

Try http://www.dynexproducts.com/pc-602-4-dynex-4-port-ethernet-broadband-router.aspx

Dynex DX-E402 router, changing NAT settings(UPnP) to access x-box live. go to router settings web page for router, http://192.168.1.1/, enter user name and password to access settings page. user id is usually admin this also for password. under advanced settings click on forwarding. In listed sub-catagories click on UPnp. click enable. this should solve any NAT issues with X-box 360 signing onto x-box live. dynex dx-e402 was very easy to setup.

Login to your airport express using Apple's airport utilities (either in it's current configuration or after resetting it).

Using the airport utility do not choose manual setup, just select continue.

Adjust (as required) the airport express station name and password and select continue.

Select "I have a wireless network and I want to add AirPort Express or replace an existing device on my network and select continue.

Select I want Airport Express to wireless join my current network and select continue.

Choose if you want to extent the rance of your network or just join the network and select continue.

Choose the network you wish to join... etc etc etc....

You should be fine.

Unfortunately, the DX-E402 is not a wireless router, so it can not transmit its signal without a physical cable connecting the router to your computer. If you want a wireless router that can also connect to your ISP, check out the Dynex Enhanced Wireless G Router:
