    Re: Difficult start, good for now... (mac OS X)

    Need a little help here. Have a Mac, westport 324W router/wireless, have configured airport express as extender, get a green light on express, but can't get internet thru to vudu box (red light). Can't figure what I'm doing wrong?Any ideas?

    I'd love to reuse my AirPort for this?
    Try these instructions from above. If it doesn't work then call Apple (like I did) and they stepped me through the process.. Hint: don't tell Apple you have had your Apple Express for a long time - they probbaly won't support it.

    When you look at your device list on DD-WRT do you see the airport connectected?

    What you described is client mode. And yes you don't lose half the bandwidth in client mode. One other thing in client mode is that usually they only support one device due to the way the "MAC" address is handled (ps. MAC is Media Access Control its the adapter address).

    Re: Difficult start, good for now... (mac OS X)

    to clarify -

    my understanding on WDS is that if the bridged client (in this case the Airport Express) is configured to NOT accept wireless clients - only use the wired ethernet connection, then bandwidth stays the same and not halved. Essentially it then just acts like a network card or wired access point.

    now i'm not a networking guy, but i did plug my laptop into the express and ran a bandwidth test. it performed pretty much the same as if i were using the same laptop wireless through the base station (airport extreme).

    EDIT: should have also said i'm using the new extreme 802.11n

    none the less vudu seems to work as expected.

    please guys correct me if i'm wrong.

    And that is 27 Mb if you are 10 ft. from the router. The further you are and any obstructions and the signal will degrade. Also remeber that the entire bandwidth is shared between devices so if you have other devices that are wireless the transfer rates will drop even further.

    I just set mine up with airport extreme base station bridged to an airport express. it works flawlessly.

    you have to set the express up in WDS mode (bridged). the easiest way to set up as with most apple products is to start from beginning. reset the express to factory state and connect it to airport utility. You have to use the bundled software with AP Extreme called Airport Utility to make it easier (NOT airport admin utility).


    my setup:

    cable modem -> AP Extreme (802.11n version) -> (bridge mode) -> AP Express -> Vudu

    Apple needs an "Airport Pro" with at least 8 ethernet connections out the back.. I was going to buy an airport but realized it only had 3, ended up buying another WRT54GL along with an 8 port gig ethernet switch and its all full now!!!!!!!.
