Apple Airport Extreme + R2 Setup

[Thrilling]

Hello all,

 

I tried searching but no luck. What are the best settings/options to remember when setting up the R2 behind my Airport Extreme 6th-Gen? Should I enable any type of settings such as DMZ? I wanted to know if I can still use my R2 for gaming via my PC (ethernet only) and the Airport Extreme for everything else WiFi-related? I know Apple Airport Extreme's have no QoS settings but is there anything I can setup within the R2 to help the Airport Extreme?

Setup will be as follows: 

Netgear CM1000 Cable Modem -> Netduma R2 -> Apple Airport Extreme (x3 for coverage)

 

Thanks so much!

Hi !

From memory, you can put them in AP mode.

In this way the R2 will manage the QoS of the devices connected to it!

The above would absolutely be the best setup in this scenario

Thank you both. Putting them in AP mode worked perfectly. I utilized this walk-through as well for the Airport config; https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254183258?sortBy=best
