Hi how do I set up a links’s modem with a apple extreme router? I know tI have to bridge the modem, just a little confused with extreme setup

Ok, thanks for the additional information. The Linksys CM3024 modem should already be configured as a bridge. That means your AirPort Extreme base station (yes, Apple calls their routers base stations) needs to be connected directly to it by Ethernet and configured as a router ... its default configuration. The Ethernet cable from the modem should be connected to the Extreme's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.


I suggest that you follow the steps in the following article: AirPort - Complete Power Recycle - Apple Community

Which exact model is your Linksys "modem" and your AirPort Extreme base station? Will the Extreme be connected directly to the modem by Ethernet or by wireless?

Links’s CM3024 and my Apple Extreme is the wi-fi tower, not the base station.


Thank you, I appreciate it your help!

Sincerely,
