Extend the reach of the WiFi with airport Time Capsule and Airport Express

I want to extend the range of my WiFi network running on a Time Capsule with an Airport Extreme airport. The Internet, ADSL, signal goes from the cable box in a closet and has two Ethernet cables connecting the box. I installed a simple Ethernet switch and ran inside, with both Internet cables Ethernet Miss and in two rooms in my apartment. I created the Capsule of time like the WiFi router, then the Express in the other room in Bridge Mode to extend the range of the WiFi network and enable AirPlay. This configuration works well for a while, but after a certain time has problems. The Express seems to go back to the creation of the WiFi network on its own and I saw the problem of the conflict addreses DCHP.

What seemed to work correctly using the Express as the "pivot" and I fell straight Internet on it and an Ethernet cable to connect the Time Capsule in Bridge Mode. It's far from ideal for me, however, because I like the Express to be in another room to extend the range of the WiFi network in this part of my apartment and be able to use it for AirPlay.

Help, please.

If you could let us know what operating system you use on your Mac or PC, we'll give you a configuration suggested for the AirPort Express, which will allow the Express and the Time Capsule to connect to the Ethernet switch and perform correctly.

We assume that the switch and the wiring will function properly in your current configuration, as well as the time Capsule, is that correct?

  • 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

  • Change of modem can improve the speed of Airport Express Extender?

    My router is a Airport Extreme 6th Gen.

    When Wi - Fi and close this Airport Extreme base station, I get average speeds of:

    117 Mbps down and > 11 Mbps upward

    At the opposite end of the House, I use a wireless extension: Airport Express 1 St gen - model A1264 (MB32 1LL/A)

    Here, the download speed goes up to 14mbps

    Download speed rest > 11 Mbps

    My ISP will not have my current cable modem: 6580 Motorola (jumpered to disable router) to provide speeds greater than 100/10 (though even I can actually slightly higher than average, I have indicate above).

    If I replaced the modem with my ISP (Time Warner Cable) provisions for 200/20Mbps (speeds I pay in fact) - and * if * I got then that 100 Mbps speed increase (wireless) when close to my Airport Extreme base station (and I think I'll) - should I then expect to see a significant speed increase at the opposite end of the House , where I rely on the Airport Express wireless extension?

    In other words, is expected to double the speed of my modem now gives me wireless (when you're on my Apple Extreme base station) also be reflected in an increase in speed at the end of the House where I must rely on the Express Extender 1 generation and where I am now only download speeds see 14Mbps?

    BTW:

    1. I can not move my extreme or my Express.  They both must stay exactly where they are. Neither can they cannot be permanently interconnected via ethernet cable.

    2. I don't think the speed reduction I describe is a bandwidth issue because I am the only one on the network and do not have multiple downloads on several devices at the same time.

    Before I ring $$$ on a modem that won't improve my speed, you will appreciate any guidance I where I need more.

    Change of modem can improve the speed of AirPort Express Extender?

    Just a little, at best. The Express pourrait spend 25-30 Mbps. No guarantee, with strangeness wireless... it is maybe the same or worse based on my experiences.

    If you need more speed at the end of the House... the AirPort Express must be located to half way between the AirPort Extreme and the end of the House. Ideally, he would have line-of-sight with AirPort Extreme.

    Yet, you say that you can not move the Express or the extreme and can't get the Ethernet cable. Have you considered or tried Powerline Ethernet adapters?

  • How can implement you not with Tim Capsule and AirPort their simulation on the iMac?

    Hello

    How can implement you not with Time Capsule and AirPort their simulation on the iMac?

    I don't know what you're asking.

    AirPort Extreme is a wireless router.

    A Time Capsule airport is an AirPort Extreme with a built-in hard drive for data storage.

    An iMac is a Mac computer.

    An iMac is not a wireless router, so he is unable to perform the functions of a wireless router.

  • setting up time capsule and express wired after disconnection of the airport

    I have a 2 TB Time Capsule and three 3 wired express airport throughout my house.  I know that when I added first the cable express, that I had to call apple to change some settings.  Now I can't service because they are more than a year and after a recent quick breakdown (two or three) power is the airport expresses link is more and a bunch of my settings seem to have changed on the Time Capsule.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you

    If you think there are setting changes, then it would be better to start over.

    • First of all, you want to make a 'factory' reset on all of your base stations. This will return them to their "out-of-the-box" configuration Once finished, leave them turned off.
    • Then, we put up the Time Capsule (TC). Since it has been reset, it will broadcast a Wi - Fi unsecured network with a network name of something like: Apple network NNNNNN.
    • Use AirPort Utility on your iPhone, Mac or PC to configure the TC as a stand-alone wireless router. In other words, configure it to provide a secure WiFi network.
    • Once the TC has been configured, verify that the clients on your network can access the Internet with it.
    • If he succeeds, proceed to the next step. If this is not the case, stop and post back with your results.
    • We will now configure all of your base stations for a roaming network.
    • Power-up one of the three stations based AirPort Express.
    • Once again, you will need to use AirPort Utility to continue. The utility must now find the Express, and if all goes well, it will offer to the Express allows to extend the TC using Ethernet. It's what you want and just go through the steps automated window 'Installation '. And then on actually.
    • Do the same for the other two express base stations.
