E3000 WAP / Would like to use old WRT300N to provide stronger signal

I recently replaced WRT300N router / WAP with E3000.  The signal in our basement is weak.  I have CAT5e cable running down to the basement where I would like to place the WRT300N in some type of client mode so that it will provide stronger signal and better access.  I know that I would have to be certain the DHCP is handled exclusively by the E3000.  Beyond that simple step, I'm not certain how to proceed.
Is the WRT300N hardware capable of this?  If so, can anyone provide some step by step instructions on how to accomplish this?
Many thanks.
Solved!

  • Please help in my problem I would like to use one wireless internet provider not every single one in the neighborhood. Thank you in advance for the information how to shut of any other providors such as Netgear(that keeps popping up)

    only want one internet service provider but have every single one popping up in the neighborhood.

    What you are seeing aren't "service providers", they are your neighbors wireless networks. Assuming you have provided your own wireless network with a unique name it should be easy to select, and once you sign on to it, your MBA should pick it up and automatically sign you in. The visibility of the other networks would be moot.

  • I installed the latest version of Firefox and it opens to google. I would like to use my old Sbcyahoo home page as the default page. How do I change

    I installed the latest version of Firefox. The home page is now a google search box. I would like to use my old sbcyahoo desktop with its icons. I am unable to make the change.

    Oops. I could have been more clear, sorry.
    TOOLS > OPTIONS > GENERAL tab
    Under Start-up at the top of GENERAL, you have an option to type in the url or use the tabs to set your homepage to the current page.
    Go to your chosen site, open OPTIONS and click 'Use current page.'
    Sorry for the shorthand version previously. I blame the cat.

  • I just purchased a new mac mini and would like to use my old dell monitor. I tried a HD to VGA adapter converter,it plugs in, but nothing shows on the monitor. Any suggestions? Thanks

    I just purchased a new mac mini and would like to use my old dell monitor. I tried a HD to VGA adapter converter,it plugs in, but nothing shows on the monitor. Any suggestions?

    What do you mean by "HD to VGA adapter converter"?
    Do you mean have an HDMI to VGA adapter connected the the Mini's HDMI port?
    Or maybe you plugged n the the included HDMI to DVI adapter and then connected a DVI to DVI adapter?
    In either case that will not work since VGA is analog and the Mini's HDMI port is digital only.
    You need to purchase a mini displayport to VGA adapter. It plugs into the Mini's Thunderbolt port.

    Make sure you get a name--brand one. I purchased some el cheapo, no-name ones and they did not work

  • Hi - I need help. I would like to use my old iPhone 3 as an iPod for music only. Problem is that my phone is locked with a password I can't remember. I havent used the phone since I got my iPhone 4. Anyone who know how I can reset the phone to standard?

    Hi - I need help. I would like to use my old iPhone 3 as an iPod for music only. Problem is that my phone is locked with a password I can't remember. I havent used the phone since I got my iPhone 4. Anyone who know how I can reset the phone to standard installation or just get acces to the phone. There is no SIM card in the phone.

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thanks for your prompt response, however I have first seen it now. I have placed an active SIM card in the iPhone turned it off and on. It now says SIM locked, please write access code. The problem is I don't remember the password. When I connect it to iTunes it tell me that I have to write the password before it can be used with iTunes...... Do you have any good ideas? I see you are from the NYC area.... used to work there back in the early 90´   Those were good days..... What a City

  • I purchased a new Time Capsule (2TB - 2013), and I would like to use my old Time Capsule to extend the range of my wireless network.

    I purchased a new Time Capsule (2TB - 2013), and I would like to use my old Time Capsule to extend the range of my wireless network. I can't get them to communicate. Any ideas?

    You need to use the airport utility on a computer.
    If you use v6 utility it is fairly easy and straight forward.
    The trick is to place the old TC in the same room as the new one.
    Do a full factory reset and then you can just go through the utility to extend wireless network.
    I did one post with all the pictures.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/24161378#24161378
    If you have issues just ask.
    Then you can place the old TC about half way between the new TC and the clients would want to connect.. the half way point is not distance but wireless signal levels.
    You can pick that up by using the wireless diagnostics in a mac laptop and walking around to pick up the signals.
    This is for extend wireless.. if you want roaming network it is entirely different. That means they are plugged together with ethernet.
    Tell us if you mean roaming not wireless extend.

    That's all nonsense. Most people don't post anything if they don't have any problems. People who do have problems usually have very specific reasons for them that they have caused themselves.

  • Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?

    Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?
    Need to set up a workstation on my MBPro that will only run on Windows. Im willing to use Bootcamp or Parallels to see what works best. Need to get this set up this week to enable working from home on my MB - rural and hoping to buy Windows 7 online - am I able to get windows working through either bootcamp or Parallels without the actual Windows disc? Bootcamp set up guide calls for a disc.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    First, the answer to your question is yes, it IS possible to install Windows in Parallels without a disc, using an .iso image file.
    Boot Camp since OS X 10.8 also installs Windows without a disc: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4889551?tstart=0
    Parallels has complete documentation, series of forums, and a knowledgebase. You can also download the current release of Parallels 9 and try it for free for a few weeks before you decide to purchase it.
    The Parallels Desktop for Mac product page: http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
    The Desktop for Mac forums: http://forum.parallels.com/forumdisplay.php?58-Parallels-Desktop-for-Mac
    Documentation: http://www.parallels.com/support/desktop-virtualization/desktop/#c12970
    The Knowledgebase for Desktop for Mac: http://kb.parallels.com
    The primary difference between a Boot Camp installation and a Parallels installation is that in the Boot Camp installation, you're installing Windows into a separate partition on your internal mass storage device (hard drive or SSD) and then rebooting your Mac directly into Windows.
    In Parallels, you're always running OS X on the Mac and Parallels is running a Windows virtual machine.
    Not to get too technical here, but it is also possible for Parallels to run an installed Windows Boot Camp partition as a virtual machine. If you're evaluating system performance with a trial copy, that might be the way to go, because you only have to install Windows once on Boot Camp as a dual-boot system, then install Parallels Desktop and run the Boot Camp partition as the virtual machine.
    There is a performance difference between the two, with the Boot Camp Windows installation being faster, but without the convenience of running both Mac and Windows applications simultaneously offered by Parallels. Sometimes that convenience outweighs a performance hit.
    I can't give you more Mavericks and Parallels 9 specifics, because I'm currently running Windows 7 with Parallels 7 on OS X 10.8.5. Parallels 7 will not run on OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    I've been using Parallels (to run a few old rarely-used WIndows applications with features that would require a steep learning curve and major expense to purchase and learn a similar Mac app) occasionally since Parallels 3 and Windows XP. With each new release of OS X, each new release of Parallels, and each new Windows release, there are ALWAYS 'early adopter' bugs that get worked out over time.

  • I have an Intel iMac running OSX 10.6.8. I would like to use Final Cut Pro 10.1. I know I need OSX 10.9 for this. Can I run both 10.6.8 and 10.9 on the iMac ? I do not want to convert completely to 10.9 because of my existing software. Thanks for any help

    It would depend on how old your IMac is, how mush memory you have, it it can be upgraded by OWC, etc. I have a 2006 Macbook Pro and would NOT put Mavericks on it or espeacially FCP 10.1.1 on it because the most memory it can have is 4 GB. You need at least 8 GB to work with Final Cut Pro 10.1.1. IMHO.
      I would try to find a copy of Final Cut Express perhaps.
      Does this answer your question?

    I would like to use Formcentral form data to populate a pdf with the same fields.  Is that possible?

    Randy,
    We have an application that I would like to have in Formscentral.  That application is also in a larger PDF file that once filled in populates all the other forms below it (lease, credit check form, ect).  If the Application on Formscentral keep the same field names as the pdf can I pull the data from formscentral and sill populate the old application pdf so that all the forms below it will be also populated.
