[QUOTE="Luther Mac, post: 1607232, member: 254228"] Here's my setup: - I have a 3rd party Wireless Modem/Router combo. - I just bought a new Airport Time Capsule. It was my understanding that it is a crapshoot on getting the Airport TC to wirelessly extend the current WiFi network the modem/router has. So I ran a ethernet cable to the ATC and created a new network. - In a workshop across the yard from my house I have a (latest version) Airport Express. It is setup to extend the network the ATC created. Works great. - In the workshop I also have a (latest version) AppleTV plugged into a flatscreen (via HDMI). The AppleTV can easily pick up the wireless network created by the ATC/AX tandem. Im wondering if I would speed things up if I were to plug the AppleTV to the AX via ethernet cable. Or should I just leave things as be, wirelessly connected? For all I know, I got it wrong and going from AX to AppleTV isnt even possible or wont speed up the network in any way. Thanks [/QUOTE]
