Extend the network wireless with roaming function

Hello

I was looking for some advice on my project to the top. I currently have my SKY router (wifi off) connected to an older time capsule which is almost full, so I'm about to buy a new one and I can use the old one plus one new airport extreme/express to extend the network of thought. I think three points would be best as its quite a large sector, I wish to address. I would like that it either under one SSID using the roaming capabilities I've read are possible with the airports and would hand off a signal strong etc.

Unfortunately, I don't have the option of it being fully wired but planned to use the powerline rather than wifi adapters because I don't want to lose too much speed. I use power lines now an extension of netgear and performance are pretty good with very little loss, although the multiple SSID bothers me so want to change.

Can someone advise if the setting above would work or if there is a better way (without cabling package together) and if I would be best for extreme or the express for the 3rd point?

If anyone has any configuration Advisor if this is the best set up then that would be also appreciated?

Thank you very much

Iain

I use power lines now an extension of netgear and performance are pretty good with very little loss, although the multiple SSID bothers me so want to change.

Configure each extension to use the exact same network name (SSID), the same level of security wireless and same password wireless. Then you will have a roaming network.

  • Please let know us if it is practical to use Airport Extreme to extend the network wireless in a big house.

    I suspect that an original device connected to the modem cable... an intermediate device... and there should be a final device in a place further from the original device. I note that tech online article does talk to a wireless network using the 802.11ac signal. Would be grateful for advice on the feasibility of this. I currently have a Time Capsule, Airport Extreme connected my cable modem. I have a ~ 6 600 feet at home with the press on the 2nd story room and the other end of the House.

    You can use Airport Express to extend wireless created by an AEBS. If the AEBS is a model of turn then it supports 802.11ac, but most dishes are not. New the AEX take in charge 802.11ac, but it is of little use if the AEBS model is not.

  • With the help of a second domestic airport to extend the network

    I have an Airport Extreme (MD031LL/A), connected to a modem via an ethernet cable and it works perfectly as a WiFi router for my house. I have also an Airport Express (MC414LL/A) I want to use as a second router to extend the reach of the Wifi signal, which works when connected via a cable to the Airport Extreme (continuous green light), but when I unplug the ethernet cable the Airport Express falls out of the network (Amber led flashing). I've updated the router time firmwear and repowered and reset everything, including 'forget' the devices via the Airport utility which I got on my MacBook Pro, but not luck. Books Online says the network should see the second router, waiting with flashing light amber, but it does not work.

    Any suggestions?

    Please note, it is not ideal for me running extended ethernet cable, I would like to as the relay to be wireless.

    I am assuming that you are using a Mac running a current or recent operating system... or... you use the installer on an iPhone or an iPad, right?

    If you want the AirPort Express to extend wireless signal in AirPort Extreme... then you would not use an Ethernet cable to the configuration... Since the installer detects the Ethernet connection and configure the AirPort Express Terminal accordingly.

    However, if you are able to locate the Airport Express where you need more coverage... and... an Ethernet cable from the Express back to AirPort Extreme... which must remain connected permanently... This would be the way to go.  The reason is that you will lose about half of the potential speed on the entire network when you try to Express to extend the network using a wireless connection.

    But, if you can not run the cable, you can not.  If you need a little more advice on installation, after return to confirm how the Express connect to AirPort Extreme and let us know what operating system is installed on the device you will use to configure the Express.

    Hi @jrmunn ,

    I want to help you get the printer works on the wireless network.

    There are a few different ways to install the printer on the wireless network.

    • Thanks to the support WPS.
    • Through the installation, by connecting the USB port, it will configure the wireless.
    • Once the USB installation is done. You can configure the wireless via an Ethernet connection.

    Cycle power to the router.

    First, we must restore the defaults on the printer.

    Press the OK button on the printer, go to the service, and then select restore default settings.

    Print a printer configuration page to make sure that the IP address and SSID are erased.

    Print a Configuration report.

    Uninstall the printer software.

    WPS configuration method:

    To connect your printer to your wireless router wireless using WPS:
    (your router must support WPS)

    Start the mode of the WPS button on your printer.
    Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your router.

    Then run a printer from devices and printers Add Wizard.

    The USB method:

    Perform a clean boot on the computer and disable the Antivirus software and any analysis in real-time in the Antivirus software also. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.

    Then run the installation immediately after connecting the USB cable, follow the steps described in this document to update the drivers so that's not new error. A fatal error during Installation of the software. Then the installation should continue. (you can use this procedure for any type of installation)

    If you are still having problems and you have an Ethernet cable, we can install the printer as a USB connection again and then configure the printer via wireless Ethernet.

    Method of Ethernet:

    Restore the default settings of the printer.

    Connect the printer to the router with an Ethernet cable.
    Wait about 1 minute and the printer must have a valid IP address.
    Print the configuration page to get the IP address of the printer.
    Type the IP address in the address bar of Internet Explorer which should open the printer's built-in web services page.
    Installing wireless over here now.
    Click the networking, wireless on the left, fill in information about the network and apply the settings.
    After the confirmation, then disconnect the Ethernet cable.
    Now you should have a flashing light on the printer in 1 minute wireless about.

    Print a printer configuration page, to get the new IPv4 address.

    Then create a new port with the new IPv4 address.

    In the devices window and printers, click right on the printer and on the left, click on printer properties, select the Ports tab.

    Click Add Port, select the Port TCP/IP Standard, then New Port and follow the instructions in the wizard.

  • My Windows 7 computer will not find the networks wireless after a system restore.

    My Windows 7 computer is not find wireless networks after I did a system restore. It was perfectly good wifi before the system restore and other members of my family have a great connection except me is not a problem with my router. I think I know what the problem is, but I just don't know how to fix it. So there you go. I did my restore system about 2 days after that we moved on the provider of internet/tv "Comcast" to the tv/internet provider "Verizon". what I think has happened, is that I restored my computer to the point when we had no Verizon so that he could not find the network. Now, since we have Comcast it won't identify this network either, so maybe some of you out there could help me. : D

  • Best way to extend the network of Apple using Cat5 and wireless, but with access to the same network

    Appreciate any help here.

    I need to extend my network coverage for the part out of my house where the current signal does not cover.

    I have a Time capsule in the office connected to my Modem and then created a wireless (XXXX) network that connects to the extreme in my front room... .well when I'm in my room before the signal does not increase when I go near the extreme... and maybe it's that I'm still picking up XXX to my Time Capsule wireless network.

    I'm just a Cat5 cable around the House and I was wondering if I can connect the TC to the extreme via CAT5 and therefore the extreme would be able to stream my network wireless XXXX?

    If I then want to connect to another airport (explicit / extreme or even TC) in the part of my house which currently gets no signal... then do cela via Cat5 to the EXTREME at the 3rd device... or must it come directly from the TC?   (and again... the 3rd device will also be able to broadcast the network XXXX?

    Ideally, I want the network to be possible STB and flavours around the House, and I think that the connections between Ethernet devices would accomplish that... but I also need the i-devices, streaming boxes etc. around my house to then access the XXXX wifi network I have printers, VPN, etc all together towards the top on.

    Oh... and 1 other point, I have a cisco 8port 10/100POE switch managed... which I would also like to include in the network to connect to the servers and devices IP etc... is - it possible... and that has to be directly connected to the time Capsule and could I still use it to take place between the TC and the 3rd Apple Airport device... as above?

    Hope that makes sense... but please let me know if you need more details.

    I'm just a Cat5 cable around the House and I was wondering if I can connect the TC to the extreme via CAT5

    Yes. Hate to be picky here, but I hope you'll use CAT5, CAT5e cabling being quite a bit obsolete.

    wireless network and if so the extreme would be able to stream my XXXX?

    Yes

    If I then want to connect to another airport (explicit / extreme or even TC) in the part of my house which gets currently no signal... then do cela via Cat5 to the EXTREME at the 3rd device

    Yes, but it would be preferable to cables to connect the 3rd to the main TC, if that's an option.

    or does have to come directly from the TC?

    No, but it would be better if she could, if this is an option.

    and once again... the 3rd device will also be able to broadcast the network XXXX?

    Yes

    and I think that the connections between Ethernet devices would achieve this

    That is right. Ethernet is always the best choice in terms of performance.

    but I also need the i-devices, streaming boxes etc. around my house to then access the XXXX same wifi network I printer, VPN, etc all together towards the top on.

    That should work well.  However, you may not aware that most of the PC and iOS devices not 'automatically' between different wireless access points as they move from one place to the other.  For example, you have your iPhone near the time Capsule, so he'll be looking for a strong signal from the time Capsule. If you move the close AirPort Extreme iPhone or any other device 3rd... the iPhone usually will stay connected to wireless Time Capsule... even if a stronger signal may be available in another wireless access point. Nature of the beast with IOS devices.

    Thus, with most of the PC and iOS devices, you will have to get used to temporarily turn off the WiFi on the iOS device when you move from one place to the other, then re - turn on WiFi once the device is close to the other wireless access point. The iOS device then generally will pick up the strongest signal from the nearest access point.

    Portable Mac computers will generally do a good job of automatically 'switching' to pick up the best signal of different access points in you walking the laptop around the House.

    I have a cisco 8port 10/100POE switch managed... which I would also like to include in the network to connect to the servers and devices IP etc... It is possible.

    Yes, but the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme Gigabit Ethernet ports or 10/100/1000, then the switch is going to limit the maximum speed on the network at 100 Mbps when the devices are capable of much higher speed.  If you plan to invest in the installation of Ethernet wiring around the House, then you also want to invent a new Gigatibit Ethernet 10/100/1000 switch, because it will allow up to 10 times faster compared to a 10/100 switch network connections.

    can do this via Cat5 to the EXTREME at the 3rd device... or need to come directly from the TC?

    Yes, but it would be best to connect the switch to the time Capsule if it is an option.

    and could I still use it to take place between the TC and the 3rd Apple Airport device... as above?

    Yes

  • How to put in place the new Airport Express to extend the current wireless WiFi U-Verse home network?

    Hello

    What are the steps for the creation of a new AIRPORT EXPRESS MC414LL/A Terminal so that it make that expand my network existing wireless, using my current AT & T UVerse equipment home.  Here are the details...

    Internet service provider: AT & T U-Verse

    Existing facilities: primary AT & T provided router/Modem: ARRIS NVG589 (reference 587234-004-00) that manages my house wired and wireless Wi - Fi.

    PROBLEM: Does not offer full Wi - Fi coverage

    SOLUTION: Attempt to add a new Terminal Airport Express so that it will extend coverage of the existing Wi - Fi network wireless.  I plan on the use of certain features such as streaming my content from iTunes to my sound, surround sound, etc Airport Express Library.

    NEW FEATURE: APPLE AIRPORT EXPRESS 802.11n Wi - Fi PART # MC414LL/A

    I wish I had AT & T equipment to continue to manage the Wi - Fi and network functionality (DNS, firewall, etc.), as it currently does.  However, I want to use the Airport Express to extend Wi - Fi coverage.  I already have a cable ethernet from the floor and the AT & T ARRIS NVG589.  I just need to know how to set up my new Apple Airport Express.

    Thank you!

    With the Express connected to Arris gateway with Ethernet, you have the basis for a roaming network.

    I would recommend that you run the AirPort Utility and allow it to run automatic installation of the Express. The utility should detect that the Express is connected by Ethernet and go through the steps to properly set up. Note: If you have made any changes to the Express since out of the box, I strongly suggest that you first perform a 'factory' reset on it to make sure that the installation went well.
