Airport Extreme DHCP settings
« on: September 11, 2012, 01:41:41 PM »
One of our teachers has brought in an Airport Extreme to link his shiny new Apple products together - thing is its messing round with my DHCP server on my legacy network.
 
Anyone know how to switch DHCP off on one of these things?

got this from apple as well

"All I had to do to accomplish this was to uncheck 'Distribute IP addresses' on the Network page in the Airport Admin utility. This causes the Express to act as a bridge between the wired and wireless networks."

will try that.  Had no joy searching for the answer yesterday - my browser wouldn't render pages from the Apple discussion forums...

Cheers
