Hi all,

Not sure if this is possible, but this is what I hope to achieve,

Current setup is modem to time capsule creating "Wireless network 1" and all works fine, I want to add to an airport express to create "Wireless Network 2" this network will be completely separate and be used solely for when i want to use a USA DNS (I'm in the UK).

Is this possible and if it can anyone advise how to set this up

You would need to connect the AirPort Express to another port on the modem. Placing the Express behind the Time Capsule will place the Express in Bridge Mode, which disables DNS settings to only use the TC's settings, or in a double NAT configuration.
