    You can simply do so using the AirPort Utility on your iMac or iPhone, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the AirPort Express, and then, select Edit.
    • For a Mac:
      • On the Network tab, change Router Mode to: Off (Bridge Mode)
      • Select Update and allow the base station to restart.
    • For an iOS device:
      • Select Advanced > DHCP and NAT
      • Change Router Mode to: Off (Bridge Mode)
      • Select Done and allow the base station to restart.
