[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1727604, member: 234411"] Hello and welcome to the forum! :) You've already received great comments from [I]Lisa & Patrick[/I] - I share the concern about whether your AE router is outdated, so check the links and determine whether that may be an issue? But, in addition to [I]Lisa's[/I] steps, you need to also setup the extended router (the AE in your situation) in 'Bridge Mode', so that there are not conflicting SSIDs and multiple DHCPs - below is a screen capture of my Airport Utility showing my AP Extreme router (my only one) acting in DHCP mode - if you want to use a second router to extend your 'wireless' network (assume you are NOT wired?), then you need to bridge that device. Here are a few links that may help - [URL="https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204617"]LINK 1[/URL] and [URL="http://www.apple.com/shop/question/answers/readonly/airport-express-as-an-extender/QCDDKCT2KKF99Y97C"]LINK 2[/URL] - let us know if our suggestions help - good luck!
