So you are saying I should just go back and set via bridge mode with WAN cord connected AEBS.?
#Airport extreme 802.11 ac Pc
lauch the airport tool app- touch the airport extreme icon- edit -network-wifi mode- setup new wireless networkĥ.plug the ethernet cable with internet access from the main router to the wan port on the airport extreme, and plug all the other ethernet cables to any pc you like, then all your wired or wireless devices will work !Ħ.

reset the airport extreme by pressing the "reset" using a pencil or stickģ. disconnect all the ethernet cables to the airport extremeĢ.

I found the same prolem today by switching my airport extreme from DCHP and NAT mode to bridge(off) mode.Ġ.install "airport tool" app on your iphone,ipad/ipod, or macġ. The only reason I did the DOUBLE NAT was because of the post by applevxgoogle: The extension AEBS is via wireless to above AEBS The new AEBS is connected to cable modem via ethernet If you plan to extend using an Ethernet connection, it will be necessary to verify that the Ethernet cable is working correctly before you set up the AirPort Extreme. AirPort Utility on the iPad will virtually set up everything for you correctly and automatically.you just need to name the AirPort Extreme device during the setup and tap Next. You never want Double NAT on a network if it can be slows down connections and makes communications among other network devices "iffy" at best.Ĭhances are, we need to start over again and configure the extending AirPort Extreme to operate correctly on your network. If you see a Double NAT error though.the extending AirPort is not configured correctly. We are confused as to which connection type you are using. The plan was to take the older AX and use to extend.Īn AirPort Extreme can extend by connecting to the "new" AirPort Extreme using a wireless connection.or.a wired Ethernet connection. It appears that you are abbreviating the AirPort Extreme as AX in your post, correct? We will assume that is the case. A Time Capsule abbreviation actually makes is a TC. In the past, Apple has always abbreviated an AirPort Express as AX and an AirPort Extreme as AEBS. Email notifications are also goofy.you may see multiple messages for the same post. Screenshots are broken on the forums for just about all of us, although you might be able to see the images that you posted on your computer. Just want some validation that this all makes sense. I know nothing about what Double NAT is or why this is supposed to correct the issue. If I do this from my iPad, it only shows if I re-start the iPad. When I analyze the network via Airport Utility it sometimes shows that the Airport units cannot be found. It now shows as being in double NAT mode but I am not convinced this is correct. At first I could not get to work (AX would not show on network: it was on ethernet, not wifi) but eventually got everything to go as described. Looking into things I came across the above thread and followed the advice to set up without WAN connected and selecting double NAT rather than bridge. I also have an older A Xpress that I have re-purposed to get my audio receiver on the network, but did not want it to extend the network.Īfter getting everything set up I started experiencing severe drops in internet speed and signal. The plan was to take the older AX and use to extend.
