I am trying to help my parents improve their home network. They have an LG tv with the Netcast feature allowing them to watch Netflix etc and the signal doesn't seem to be very strong in the room. They have dsl and have a combination modem/router which is a Westell 327W. I had them buy an airport extreme since I have one and am very impressed with it. We did try just buying a standalone modem but it wouldn't work for some reason so I want to try and just use the Westell set up.
What is the best way to setup the AE? It sounds like people may be putting the AE in Bridge mode but what exactly does that mean? Does this turn off the Westell router function and allow me to use the superior AE router abilities getting the improved range and speed and I am after?
Any help is appreciated, thx!
