[QUOTE="aggie97, post: 952821, member: 53273"] Let me start by stating that I am a networking rookie. So, with that said, here is my situation and question. I currently have my Mac Pro setup in my bedroom with an airport extreme router. The router is hard wired to my computer and to other components (satellite receiver, xbox 360, printer, etc.) We use the wireless for our iPhones and Mac book pro. I am wanting to move my computer into another bedroom/office. However, I want to keep my router where it is because of the wires running to my satellite receiver and xbox. I want to keep these hard wired because of the speed and stability. However, I want to move my printer in the office with the computer and want it hard wired as well. Would I be able to buy another airport extreme and include it in my current network? If so, would I need another internet box or could I link all to the one I currently have? How would I go about setting this scenario up. I really appreciate everyone who took the time to read this and respond. Many thanks. [/QUOTE]
