Extending range of EX6200
Hello there Having recently purchased a EX6200 and linked it to our wifi router in the house it is working fine ! however i have an office out in the garden and i was hoping that the EX6200 would have the range to deliver me wifi but unfortualtly it does not .. i have an apple airport time capsule in the office and was wondering weather i can cable from the EX6200 to the time capsure which has built in airport , would that work and if so what would be the best way to connect the two ? Any help much appriciated !
Many thanks James

Yes, you can cable the EX6200 to the Time Capsule. Use Ethernet.

Thanks would that mean that by linking the 6200 to my airport via Ethernet that my airport would then deliver wifi ? The building is about 30 metres away would I see a lot of drop off via Ethernet over that distance? And if so is there a better way of getting wifi from the 6200 to the building ? Many thanks ..

You can set up your Airport to deliver Wi-Fi. You should set it to bridge mode.

Each Ethernet segment can go up to 100 metres. There is no drop off in speed. Use Cat 5E cable or better.
