Airport Extreme - can I use with a Windows 10 PC?

Dinarius · 15-04-2017 11:39AM #1

Could I use an Apple Airport Extreme with my existing Virgin Media modem?

I want it to stream WiFi from my upstairs office (where the modem is located) to my downstairs WiFi radio.

The only Apple device in the house is my iPhone.

Everything else is PC. (all Windows 10 Pro)

Thanks.

Of course. You will have to bridge the Virgin modem first.

Why spend 209 quid when you could buy this for 27? I know Airport supports more bands, but for what you need it for this should do nicely.

I have one of these and it works perfectly.

Thanks for the reply.

The link to Argos isn't working for me.

What's the product name and code?

Thanks again.

Thanks for that.

Had a total mare with TP-Link power line adapters. Though it may well have been me.

So, am reluctant to try another extender option.

Will consider it.

Thanks again.
