Airport Extreme/Express Networking Issues

Posted:
in Genius Bar edited January 2014
I have an Airport Extreme base station and a Netgear DSL modem/router, as well as an Airport Express. What I am trying to do is use the Airport Extreme as the only router/NAT on the network and have it provide addresses to all of the computers -- whether they are wirelessly connect via the airport extreme or through the netgear wired connection.



Is this possible b/c all the ways I've tried to do this, it has not worked.



Basically, I would like to be able to use the airport express to extend my network, and when I attempt to do this I'm told that unless the Airport Extreme's DHCP is turned on to distribute addresses, WDS cannot work. If I turn out DHCP, then I get an error between the two DHCP servers.



Any ideas?
