Bell 2Wire (DSL) Modem/Router with Apple Airport Express

[schwatschko]

Hi,

Apologies if this is not the place to post about this.

I am purchasing an Apple Airport Express this evening and was wondering how to set it up with the Bell (Canada) 2Wire DSL Modem/Router.

Do I have to disable the wireless function on the 2Wire router, plug the Airport Express into a LAN port, and set up a separate wireless network on the Airport Express? What other configurations must be enabled / disabled for this to work?

Thanks for the help,

Max

Yup, that's exactly what u do.

What other configurations must be enabled / disabled for this to work?

Must have ONE DHCP server, either on the DSL router, or on the Express, doesn't matters which one, PICK.
