Hello All,
Long time reader of the forums here, first time poster.
I just moved into a new house and I am looking to use an airport extreme base station and/or and airport express to extend my existing Comcast Cable Modem.
Equipment:
Voice & Data Modem SMC Networks smcd3gnv (I believe this is part of comcasts gateway line)
Airport Extreme Base Station Model A1354
Airport Express Model A1084 (I believe this is my model, don't have it on me as i'm posting, it's a type that plugs directly into an outlet)
Macbook Pro (snow leopard)
Wife's PC (not sure, POS)
Our new home is 3 levels, currently the comcast modem is on the main level, I have an alright signal in the basement, but since I already own the airprot products, I want to use them.
The question is how do I do this? I've read numerous forums regarding this, but I don't have the confidence to do it yet, I don't want to cause a problem and need to call comcast.
Given my equipment, can I extend my wireless network and if so, how should I do it?
Thanks all
Drew
