    I have a been running a cable through he Attic for my studio internet conection.
    Suddenly after 3 years my cabel is failing.

    I have an airport extreme connected to a router at my Cable modem location.

    I am wondering if there is a way to setup another Airport in the Studio connecting it to my switcher
    so I can get both of my Dual G5’s back on the internet and email.

    I guess the question is can a airport extreme send and recive from one and another airport extreme?
    any sugestions?

    Here is my current setup and how the network is working here:

    AT THE CABLE MODEM LOCATION (OFFICE DEN AREA)

    1 COX Cable modem connected to a NET GEAR 4 port Cable/DSL Router.
    Router has: 1 AirPort Extreme connected
    1 Dual 1.43 G4
    1 CAT out to studio

    IN THE STUDIO

    CAT Cable come infrom office/Den to the studio ASANTE Switch, which distributes to and from the studio LAN
    with my two G5 Workststions.

    FYI : Have completely trouble shooted and determined that it is infact the CAT cable from the router
    to the switcher that has failed.
    We have the AirPort Extreme for Our 2 Powerbooks and Clients and guests. I’d rather go to the studio wireless
    if possible, I usualy upload and download a maximum of 50 Megs at a time over the internet.

    Any Apple Experts/Techsuppot guys out there ?

    Use airport admin utility to daisy chain one from the other.

    Do your G5’s have wireless?
