![]() ![]() Almost ZERO!! This is the problem that led me to change to the settings recommended by applevxgoogle as a possible fix. I just experienced another slow down.went down to. MAIN AEBS EXTENDED TO SECONDARY AEBS VIA WIRELESS So its like this: FIOS MODEM CONNECTED TO MAIN AEBS VIA ETHERNET. That is where the wireless part comes in. I have to run a cable from the internet modem (Verizon FIOS) to the AE extreme don't I? how else does it get internet access? There is no cable running from main AEBS to extending AEBS. Would that be correct?Īn iPhone or iPad is probably the easiest device to use to set things up, if you have one handy.īob.you may have misunderstood. If you have a Mac, we assume that it is running the Mavericks, Mountain Lion or Lion operating system. If you can tell us whether you are using an iPhone or iPad or a Mac to set things up, we can give you the step by step. Let the utility do the work for you, it will make the right decisions. You don't have to worry about manual settings like "Bridge Mode" and other things like that. If you want the extending AirPort Extreme to connect to the new AirPort Extreme and extend using a wireless connection, then you would not use an Ethernet cable at all.Īn Ethernet cable and the WAN port would only be involved if you were planning to connect the AirPorts together permanently using a wired Ethernet cable connection.ĪirPort Utility will practically configure the AirPort Extreme to extend for you automatically. So you are saying I should just go back and set via bridge mode with WAN cord connected AEBS.? lauch the airport tool app- touch the airport extreme icon- edit -network-wifi mode- setup new wireless networkĥ.plug the ethernet cable with internet access from the main router to the wan port on the airport extreme, and plug all the other ethernet cables to any pc you like, then all your wired or wireless devices will work !Ħ. reset the airport extreme by pressing the "reset" using a pencil or stickģ. disconnect all the ethernet cables to the airport extremeĢ. I found the same prolem today by switching my airport extreme from DCHP and NAT mode to bridge(off) mode.Ġ.install "airport tool" app on your iphone,ipad/ipod, or macġ. ![]() The only reason I did the DOUBLE NAT was because of the post by applevxgoogle: The extension AEBS is via wireless to above AEBS The new AEBS is connected to cable modem via ethernet If you plan to extend using an Ethernet connection, it will be necessary to verify that the Ethernet cable is working correctly before you set up the AirPort Extreme. AirPort Utility on the iPad will virtually set up everything for you correctly and automatically.you just need to name the AirPort Extreme device during the setup and tap Next. You never want Double NAT on a network if it can be slows down connections and makes communications among other network devices "iffy" at best.Ĭhances are, we need to start over again and configure the extending AirPort Extreme to operate correctly on your network. If you see a Double NAT error though.the extending AirPort is not configured correctly. We are confused as to which connection type you are using. The plan was to take the older AX and use to extend.Īn AirPort Extreme can extend by connecting to the "new" AirPort Extreme using a wireless connection.or.a wired Ethernet connection. It appears that you are abbreviating the AirPort Extreme as AX in your post, correct? We will assume that is the case. A Time Capsule abbreviation actually makes is a TC. In the past, Apple has always abbreviated an AirPort Express as AX and an AirPort Extreme as AEBS. ![]() Email notifications are also goofy.you may see multiple messages for the same post. Screenshots are broken on the forums for just about all of us, although you might be able to see the images that you posted on your computer. Just want some validation that this all makes sense. I know nothing about what Double NAT is or why this is supposed to correct the issue. If I do this from my iPad, it only shows if I re-start the iPad. When I analyze the network via Airport Utility it sometimes shows that the Airport units cannot be found. It now shows as being in double NAT mode but I am not convinced this is correct. At first I could not get to work (AX would not show on network: it was on ethernet, not wifi) but eventually got everything to go as described. Looking into things I came across the above thread and followed the advice to set up without WAN connected and selecting double NAT rather than bridge. ![]() I also have an older A Xpress that I have re-purposed to get my audio receiver on the network, but did not want it to extend the network.Īfter getting everything set up I started experiencing severe drops in internet speed and signal. The plan was to take the older AX and use to extend. ![]()
