Hi Bob,
You seem to be the most knowledgeable on this subject so I hope you don't mind another question.
What I aim to do seems to be very simple and yet I'm constantly having problems with my Wi-Fi network here.
I have :
Time Capsule 2TB A1409 (4th Gen)
Airport Extreme A1354 (4th Gen)
Airport Extreme A1143 (1st Gen or 2nd Gen?)
All updated to 7.6.3 firmware
I want to setup a WPA/WPA2 Personal Network across all three, and a guest network at least on the first two (not supported on the A1143).
But they're constantly going in and out of network. Works for days then out. The Time Capsule is hooked up to the Internet. The other two are hooked up via MoCA (cable internet). When I reset the other two they come on in Airport Utility and default to extend a wireless network; but the 4th Gen A1354 always seems to give an error then work when I retry.
In any event the final configuration is weird -- the A1354 is Creating a network and the A1143 is extending; why aren't they both doing the same, and if I manually configure, what do I want them to do? I want them to extend using Ethernet (MoCA) not using wifi.
Any help is appreciated. I'm frustrated. The kids are frustrated. Everyone's frustrated! 🙂
Thanks!!
