Airport Extreme/Express Third Party Compatibility?
I currently have an Airport Extreme base station (connected to internet via ethernet) and 5 Airport Expresses wirelessly linked to the base station, some to extend the network and others have speakers attached to play music. The configuration has worked like a dream for many years but the Extreme is starting to show its age -- dropping out, needing to restart, etc. Since Apple has left the router game, is it possible to replace the extreme base station and have the existing Airport Expresses still work with it? If not (or even if so) how might I replicate this scenario with non-Apple hardware when the time comes? Welcome any advice. Many thanks.
