That leads me to my next question. I have a apple airport time capsule 2T thats a few years old. I believe it does not have AC. Could that be/is it a good idea to turn into a AP and also retain the backup functions and access to the 2T HD? It is not in use currently.



I would, but if your AP on the other side of the house is doing AC, your devices will have to switch from AC to N (or whatever standard the Airport is broadcasting at) when you roam around the house, causing a brief reconnection.. In other words, the wifi won't be seamless unless you are running the same 802.11 standard across the entire network.

Figured that might cause a slight hiccup. I wonder if the airport can just be on the network as a auto backup drive for the mac's and also as a NAS and turn off all wifi/routing duties in it?
