Q: Extending AP Extreme info pls
Does anyone have a link to the latest instructions to extend wireless service from my AirPort Extreme & Airport Express? The instructions that I found don't match my Airport Utilities. My AP Utilities is Version 6.3.4.

I ran out of edit time..
Sometimes youtube videos are the best for this.. I spent too much time watching them to find ones that are best.
I rewrote the whole post..
Apple documentation is well out of date..

Most have been updated within the last few months.. yet not one actually shows how to do it.
Plenty of info in the threads here though. Just look up extend wireless.
Extend wireless is pretty well automatic.. in airport utility v6..
Place the express near the extreme.. power it on.. no other connections are needed.
Reset it if you need.. then run through the airport utility setup wizard.. it will automatically choose to extend wireless from extreme.

But if you want instructions look up youtube.. lots of video tutorials there.
This covered the manual method.
