I currently have one airport extreme. I would like to add another...and be able to extend my network while adding additional ethernet ports via a second AP extreme in another location(the second AP extreme would be connected only to AC power)

Is this possible?

I know its possible to extend the network, but can I extend the network while adding ethernet ports in the second location?

Thanks!!
 
You’re basically asking if you can use the second Airport Extreme as an access point only, right? The answer is yes. Just disable NAT/DHCP.

Click to expand...

Actually, the proper setting would be to put it in "bridge" mode, which disables NAT / DHCP and turns the WAN port into a LAN port.
 
so....can the second ap extreme act as a wireless network extender and offer its lan ports to connect to the network...by putting it in bridge mode?

sorry it may be a n00b question

Thanks!
