Extending Airport Extreme 802.11ac with older Airport Extreme 802.11n

I need to extend the coverage of my wifi and I have an a 802.11ac AE and two former, 802.11n AE units and all are still functional.  Specifically, can the newest Airport Extreme 802.11ac extended by an older Airport Extreme 802.11n if it is connected by ethernet cable?  If it can be done, what setting (bridge mode or extend the network mode) should be used on the 802.11ac model?  Any other need to know the tips would be greatly appreciated as well.  Thank you...

can the newest Airport Extreme 802.11ac be extended by an older Airport Extreme 802.11n if it is connected by ethernet cable?

Yes, it's can... goal that the wireless "ac" will not be extended, of course. Here, I assume you think 802.11ac airport your 'main' airport and airport 802.11n as the airport of their extension.

which parameter (bridge mode or extend the network mode) should be used on the 802.11ac model?

You would not change the settings on the 802.11ac airport

Reset an 802.11n AirPort Extreme back to factory default settings

Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the three ports on the airport of 802.11ac for WAN "O" from the airport on the AirPort Extreme 802.11n which extend the LAN network<-->

Configuration to use Apple "Assistant" to put in place the AirPort Extreme 802.11n and it will feature the correct Assembly for you.  Everything you really need to do is assign a name that you want to call the airport and "Wizard" will take care of everything else.

  • My old Airport Extreme 802.11n will work well with my new Time Capsule 802.11ac airport?

    I got a new 802.11ac 3 TB time capsule and I would use my Airport Extreme 802.11n as an Extender but I fear that 802.11n is too old technology.

    No, it will be fine. I have the same setup on my network. Whenever I update my AirPort Extreme, I use the 'old' to expand the network throughout the House.

    I hope that answers your question.

  • How to extend the range of my Airport Extreme Base Station (802. 11 a, c) using a relay of Airport Express (802.11n).  Airport Utility (V635.2) says that this version does not support the relay.  That is what it is?

    How can I extend the range of my Airport Extreme (802. 11 a, c) using an Airport Express (802.11n) point.  Airport (V635.2) utility does not recognize the Express on its screen?  I have to buy equipment?  I'm on a MacPro OS X 10.10.5.  Thank you.

    AirPort utility that ships with OS X 10.10.5 supports base stations as 802.11ac & 802.11n AirPort. It should be able to configure both of your base stations for a scope (wireless connected base stations) or roaming types (base station connected Ethernet) wireless networks.

    When you initially configure the Wan, it helps to keep the two base stations in the same room. Once configured, you can move the base station that extend to the desired location. The important key is that the final positioning of the station that extends the base must be understood that it's to expand in order to maintain sufficient bandwidth to the station remotely for clients from network connected. Please check the following airport user tip for more details.

  • Would be switching to a simultaneous dual‑band 802.11n AirPort Express correct problems with connectivity MacBook Air Wi - Fi

    Right now I use an old AirPort Express Terminal (802.11 DSSS 1 and 2 Mbps standard, 802 11A, 802.11 g specifications and a 802.11n draft specification) with AirPort Utility Version 6.3.6 (636.5). My MacBook Air (13 inches, beginning 2014) intermittently loses the Wi - Fi connection. Move to a 802.11n simultaneous dual‑band AirPort Express would correct this problem?

  • Do a factory reset on my AirPort Extreme 802.11n resets my country code?

    Do a factory reset on my AirPort Extreme 802.11n resets my country code?

    Wireless Diagnostics warns on codes of countries in conflict.

    I ve got an AirPort Express 802.11n and an AirPort Extreme 802.11n

    The country code of the Airport Express is ok, but Airport Extreme shows me different options.

    Any suggestions?

    Please

    A factory default reset will set the area code of the AirPort Extreme back to the initial setting that it was when it was new, but this should not be necessary because you can change the country setting without having to perform a factory default reset.

    You can see the options available for your AirPort Extreme by opening AirPort Utility, by clicking on the image of the AirPort Extreme, and then click Edit in the window that appears.

    Click on the Wireless tab at the top of the window, and then click Wireless Options near the bottom of the window. Click on the country selection box to see the options available for your AirPort Extreme country.

    Apple is doing to "regionalize" airport routers, so, for example, that if you bought the AirPort Extreme in the AirPort Express to the United States and Europe, the country on the extreme options will only show of European countries, so that the country on the version options American Express shows countries in the Western hemisphere.

  • I have an AirPort Express 802.11n (I just got 1st generation) who does not appear in Airport utility? The Express flashes an orange light.

    I have an AirPort Express 802.11n (I just got 1st generation) who does not appear in Airport utility?

    The Express flashes an orange light.

    I tried to reset to factory by using a paperclip for a little more than 10 seconds (green LED flashes).

    The Express flashes a light - orange after the reboot - that seems normal to me.

    I use an iPad or MacBook Pro (without port cat 5) set up.

    I would like to extend my WiFi network and stream of music with it.

    Read the manual and did some research but I'm stuck.

    Thank you for taking the time to help...

    NOTE: I also have a second generation version which works very well.

    Let us first make sure that you really have a 1st Gen AirPort Express. To do this, look for the model number on the side of the Express. It is difficult to see, with grey lettering on a white background, but the number starts model with an 'A' followed by four digits.

    You do not want to see A1264... not A1084 and A1088.

  • What are users with Cisco 802.11n 802.11ac WLAN APs running on Low Power?

    Experts Sars WLAN,

    I'm new on a big installation WLAN here and noticed that not only the AIR-CAP2702I-E-K9 communicate on the Management Station first central and many changes of low-power 2.4 GHz antenna power level.

    People here tell me that it is not harmful, but I am slightly dubious and would like your opinion here.

    WLAN access points are activated with 2.4 and 5 GHz-antennas and shoot only 15.4 Watt following switch.

    Interface Admin Oper Power (Watts) class of device
    Of the PS to the device
    --------- ------ ---------- ---------- ---------- ------------------- -----

    Ba3/4 auto on 17.3 15.4 4 AIR-CAP2702I-E-K9

    First is revealing:

    "APis running on Low Power." Please disable Radio one and reset the access point to get full power on the other radio. »

    The access point is configured for 802.11n on both bands and 802.11ac on 5 GHz.

    I can also see many Power Level change on the 2.4 Ghz antenna.

    Here people are complaining about downtime on laptops for SAP applications.

    Also a voice over WLAN installation does not work very well.

    But I don't know if this has something to do with low power.

    What are the consequences for WLAN users in this scenario?

    Changes in the level of power can cause interruptions to users of WIFI?

    Is 'Low-Power' - Situation responsible for a large amount of sending changes to feeding on 2.4 GHz?

    Who knows more and has experience with low-power facilities?

    Thank you for any comments on this

    Wini

    Just to add

    What are the consequences for WLAN users in this scenario?

    * Anything, just change really the number of antennas is used

    Changes in the level of power can cause interruptions to users of WIFI?

    * Change in power level, do not make changes to string

    Is 'Low-Power' - Situation responsible for a large amount of sending changes to feeding on 2.4 GHz?

    * No.

    Who knows more and has experience with low-power facilities?

    You should focus on your environment and what you see. With low power due to the PoE does not affect the user experience.  If your access point changes the power too high or too low, you can introduce some poor duplication of coverage or channel.  If you are also in a building/space tenant shared, other installs nearby Wireless will affect your RF and yours will have an impact on their. Nothing we can do.  You must set customer issues before assuming what is wrong, that nothing could be wrong.  The updated client drivers is also a good thing to do to eliminate this problem.

  • 802.11 wireless extend ac / 802.11n Base Stations

    Hello

    I tested the following wireless extend the installation program:

    (1) modem connects Airport Extreme 802.11ac running--> Wireless extends another Airpot extreme running 802.11ac

    (2) modem connects Airport Extreme 802.11ac--> wireless running extends an another old Time Capsule running 802.11n

    If I connect a device to the base station of second (an extensive wireless), I think that option 1 would give a better performance? Since that they are extended wireless with 802.11 ac. But after this test, it seems that the performance is similar in both configurations. It's supposed to be like that or there is an option I'm aware of that allows you to establish which wireless standard ask?

    Your laptop probably supports the 802.11n standard. Intel 5100 a/b/g/n is probably the best option. Is the part number: 480985-001. See page 32 in this manual for more compatible chips:
