[QUOTE="MBP17•David, post: 1604856, member: 320225"] I never had BT Hub - the last time I had broadband by BT was in 1999, during BT Interactive ADSL trial ;) so I won't be able to do a step-by-step guide, but basically you should be able to login into your BT Hub, and untick "enable wireless" or something to that effect. Next you might want to disable DHCP on the hub, as it will serve no purpose now. You'd need to connect your hub to your TC via ethernet cable, then open AirPort Utility and setup TC as you want. I prefer to use fixed IP addresses for everything, however if you need to allow new clients often enough, it might be better to keep DHCP. Here's what Sky Hub setup looks like, to give you an idea: [IMG]http://i1371.photobucket.com/albums/ag317/macforums-david/ScreenShot2014-09-13at114850_zps38ba54ed.png~original[/IMG] Well, the question has been answered while I was getting the pictorial narrative ready LOL, however these still might be useful, and illustrate what's been said above, and what I mentioned about static IPs: [IMG]http://i1371.photobucket.com/albums/ag317/macforums-david/ScreenShot2014-09-13at121959_zpsecbc82fc.png~original[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1371.photobucket.com/albums/ag317/macforums-david/ScreenShot2014-09-13at122102_zpsf6c0ca08.png~original[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1371.photobucket.com/albums/ag317/macforums-david/ScreenShot2014-09-13at122038_zpscc84f4d0.png~original[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1371.photobucket.com/albums/ag317/macforums-david/ScreenShot2014-09-13at122017_zps14ffeec4.png~original[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
