The Express can "join" virtually any network.but it can only "extend" the network if it connects to a network provided by another Apple router. The Expresses that you previously set up "joined" the wireless network that was being provided by the Uverse router. Oh, well, guess I will have to find another way - the modem is in the office, left front of the house, my "office" is in left rear of house, thru 3 sets of walls - kitchen, dining room, bath room.Ĭan not even connect to to U-verse modem in that back room, so I was trying to find a way to boost, relay, the signal, to my back right room. The new place is a ranch style, one floor home.īut it would not be easy to hard wire diagonally thru 3 rooms, and front of house to rear. But now that I think about it, even with the two AE's connected as relays to extend the range, it did not improve the wireless range much, to the bottom floor - 2 bars instead of 1 bar.īut what mainly gets me, in the new place, Airport Utility does not even "find" this old model Airport Express in the new home, even when the AE is plugged into a socket just a few feet away from the U-verse modem, and iMac or Macbook Pro as near, but was easily found in the last house, 2 floor down. At my last home, I had U-verse wireless service, and connected 2 Airport Ex wirelessly to the network in a relay pattern - one on the bottom floor, one on the 2nd floor, this old model and the newer model Airport Express - the house was MUCH bigger than the one now, a tri-level home.
