[QUOTE="Lukus, post: 952933, member: 131958"] Hi There, not sure I totally understand here. Let me get this straight... [B][I]Bed Room[/I][/B] - Modem??? - Airport Extreme Router - Satellite Receiver (Using Ethernet) - xBox 360 (Using Ethernet) [B][I]Office[/I][/B] - Printer (network enabled - Ethernet plug) - Macbook Pro?? [B][I]Elsewhere[/I][/B] - iPhones over wireless 802.11g/n - Macbook Pro (same one for use in the office?) If this is your setup I would get an [I][B]Airport Express[/B][/I] and set it up to extend the network placing it in the office. Run the Macbook wireless and plug the printer into the USB port on the Airport Express (assuming the printer has USB). Not sure if the Ethernet port on the Airport Express can be used for an IP printer or not but there is probably a way fi you have to do it that way. Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
