After a moment or two, your eero will assign the Time Capsule or Airport Extreme its own IP address and the AirPort hard drive should appear on any device connected to your eero network. Then use an Ethernet cable to connect one of your eeros to your Time Capsule or Airport Extreme’s WAN port.At this point, disconnect your laptop, re-enable your Wi-Fi, and connect your laptop to your eero Wi-Fi network. Once done, press ‘Update’ and your Time Capsule or Extreme will reboot and save your changes.This setting means that IP address assignment is passed onto your eero, which you’ll connect as your primary router. It may take a minute or two for your iPad to locate your new AirPort. Look for your AirPort under Set Up New AirPort Base Station. Under the ‘Router Mode’ drop-down, select ‘Off’ (Bridge Mode). If you are connected to another Wi-Fi network, tap the Information icon next to the connected network. Select the ‘Wireless’ tab and find the drop-down menu under ‘Network Mode.’ Then select ‘Off’ to disable any wireless networks created by your Time Capsule or Extreme.Then launch Airport Utility and select AirPort Time Capsule or AirPort Extreme from the window and press edit.We recommend turning off WiFi to make sure you’re only connected to your AirPort device. The router will automatically power on after being connected to. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work that way. That’s why I decided to deploy 4 AirPort Extreme Base Stations and connect them directly via Ethernet to prevent performance degradation. Make sure your computer is connected only to the Airport device and not to the network of another router or modem. Connect the AirPort Extreme Base Station to a power source using the supplied AC power adapter. You can accomplish this by using the minimum number of Wi-Fi base stations required to service the physical network area and by using Ethernet wherever possible. Connect your DSL or cable modem to the Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station and create your new wireless network with a few simple taps on your iPad, iPhone.Next, connect your laptop to your Time Capsule or Extreme using an Ethernet cable plugged into one of the AirPort’s LAN ports.First, unplug all the Ethernet cables to disconnect it from your existing network.This way, you’ll be able to control your network’s advanced features via the eero app.īridging your AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule: We recommend that you bridge your AirPort device, which essentially turns it into a network-enabled hard drive and gigabit switch. If you’re connecting either an AirPort Extreme or a Time Capsule to your eero network, you’ll have to disable the wireless and routing functions on either your Airport device or your eeros.
