Force tv to use AirPort Extreme instead of Airport Express
i have an AirPort Extreme and an Airport Express to extend the network, is there anyway to force the tv to use the extreme instead if the express.
Mac Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)
Yes.. but not the way you might think.
Turn off the express.. then it can only use the extreme.
If you are wireless extending the network then there is no way to choose.. but if the express is giving slow speeds move it further from the TV so signal from extreme is greater at the TV.
You can isolate the Express using foil barrier.. on a direct line TV to Express.. and as close to the express as possible make a barrier of foil.. that will reduce signal to the TV.. and everything else in that direction.
You can use different names for the 5ghz band on the Extreme and the Express should not extend it.
That is only useful if you are wanting to use 5ghz instead.
