| How do I connect Airport Extreme as secondary wireless An article I saw at a bookstore magazine rack suggested a way to hookup (2) wireless routers; one being the Airport Extreme the other was ambiguous, in order to create a secure wireless network, using the Airport as the secondary. I have both PC and Mac systems on wireless. Is this possible without messing up my already functioning network? Thanks |

| You can create a big wireless setup by tying the two routers together. In the Airport Admin Utility it is the WDS setup. You better know how to do the setup. Also remember to use the more secure WPA encryption because it is more secure than WEP. The two routers have to be setup to talk to each other, so the have to to be set up the same encryption, etc.
