I'm new an not sure where to post this so I hope the general forum is okay.
I have my cable modem hooked to a Netgear WNDR3700. It works great but is located in an equipment room in the basement. I want to improve my wireless coverage so I hooked an old Apple Airport Extreme to one of the ethernet jacks elsewhere in the house that is connected to the WNDR3700. When I setup the Airport I used the wizard and selected extend a current network and use the current SSID and password. With all this done I da better coverage but my wireless speed dropped dramatically. I'm sure it's something I am doing but I am a novice with networking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
