How to make Apple airport extreme work with surfboard SB6183?
SB6183 is very smart and so is Apple airport extreme. They both tends to auto config the network. However, when you upgrade your modem to surfboard, airport seems to stop working.
I also tried quite a few different ways to config either airport or surfboard. No luck at all.
In the end, I found a trick which does the work.
- reset the airport extreme by pushing the reset button.
- connect it back to surfboard.
- it will auto config based on the current network.
- it magically config everything to working, especially the router address, its own IPv4. It also connects thru DHCP (I don't why). It then provided with DHCP and NAT with a local ip range.
Anyway, it works!
