    Hello Bobby,

     

     

     

    We've an article with steps for setting up your AirPort device to extend your existing network.

     

    Configuring an extended Wi-Fi base station

    1. Place any extended Wi-Fi base stations within range of the primary Wi-Fi base station
    2. Ensure that all 802.11n Wi-Fi base stations are powered on and allow them time to appear in the AirPort Menu Extra
    3. Open AirPort Utility (On a Mac, choose Go > Applications from your desktop, click the Utilities folder, then open AirPort Utility. In Microsoft Windows, choose Start > All Programs > AirPort to start AirPort Utility).
    4. Select the Extended Wi-Fi base station in the Base Station Chooser, then click Continue. Note: If you see a message appear that indicates that the Wi-Fi base station has been reset, click Cancel to continue.
    5. Click Manual Setup. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    6. Click AirPort in the toolbar.
    7. Click Wireless.
    8. Choose “Extend a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode menu.
    9. Choose the network you want to extend from the Network Name menu.
    10. Enter the network and device password if necessary, then click Update.
    11. The next window may indicate that there are some problems. Resolve the problems, then click Update.
