Use Airport Extreme as an access point only
I'm pretty sure this is possible but since Apple is using a different type of setup software for this product than I'm used to it would be helpful to get some pointers on how to do this. I assume I need to turn off DHCP and perhaps give the unit a fixed IP address. My existing network is fully configured with internet access etc and I just need to add the APE. I would connect the base to the existing network using one of the ports and not the WAN port. From this point will the Apple configuration software running on a Windows 7 PC be able to see the unit? Considering the existing network will be running as address like 192.168.2.xxx I'm concerned about the ability to see the unit. Once I can connect then configuration should be fairly simple. It is the intial connection I'm concerned about.

How to extend the range of Airport extreme
We are in a one floor office environment. At the two far ends of the office the WiFi signal is marginal. How can I extend the range of our Time Capsule - 2TB so that everyone can back into it and have reliable internet access? Is there some repeaters station set-up available?)

How do I access a hard drive drive connected to an Airport Extreme base station using Airport Utility on Windows? Am I missing a step?
1. Running 2 PC's with Windows XP (SP3). Used USB hub to connect printer and hard drive (Seagate FreeAgent 500Gb ) to Airport Extreme base station. Used Airport Utility and bonjour (from disk provided with base station) to set-up shared network drive and network printer.
2. Used Control Panel (and System Preferences for additional MacBook running Leopard, 10.5.7) to add printer to each computer. The network "sees" the printer and prints can be sent from all 3 computers.
3. Tried many times to set-up hard drive without success. The drive does not show up on the PC's or the MacBook.
4. \\(ethernet address) on PC shows the printer on the 2 PC's but not the hard drive.
5. Is there another step to connect to hard drive?- Asked by Richard N from Brighton

I use a VPN client to access my work server remotely; general browsing / server access is slow. Will 5GHz spectrum speed things up?
I use a Cisco VPN client to access my work server remotely; general browsing =, and more importantly, navigating the server is very slow. I currently have a home network setup with two Airport Expresses (most recent version). Will upgrading to the 5GHz spectrum speed things up? Or does the VPN slow things down no matter what?

Accessing a USB hard drive across a bridged/extended network using two airport extremes.
Here is my wifi network setup: One airport extreme (newest model) in the house connected to the internet by DSL modem. This airport is the one our network is set up on. Out in our detached office is a second airport extreme that connects wirelessly to the network and extends it as a roaming network. My iPod bounces back and forth between the two airports perfectly as I walk between home and office. Eventually (and soon) I plan to buy a MacBook to replace an aging PC desktop for work.
My question: While using the MacBook in the house accessing the internet through the home Airport, will I be able to access a USB hard drive connected to the Airport in the office?
Sorry this is so wordy, but I want to make sure i get this right at each step. Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.

Can this stream from iTunes in the same way the airport express can?
I want 3 things from this product, can it;
1) Stream iTunes from pc's/macs/iOS devices to a stereo like The airport express can?
2) Can I plug in a regular USB hard drive and access it wirelessly from various pc's/macs?
3) Can I share a printer through this whilst doing all of the above at the same time? (pretty sure this is possible-confirmation would be great)
Thanks in advance!
PS if you know how easy/difficult it would be to do all of the above(with initial setup from Vista) please rate it out of ten, let me know! Thanks.- Asked by Peter P

Using Airport Extreme with Fios- what is the best way to set-up and encryption (security)?
If I set up an Airport Extreme as a secondary router (hooked up to my Verizon router), can I just set it up Lan to Lan, disable the wireless capability of the Verizon router (so as to utilize the "n" capability of the Airport Extreme), and use it to connect wirelessly as well as utilize Time Machine wirelessly to a hard drive connected to the Airport Extreme and printer as well (using a USB hub)?
With respect to encryption, do I set that up with the Airport Extreme or will that conflict with the Verizon router set up?
Thanks- Asked by Marilyn M
