Hey everyone

I have two airports.

One at the bottom of the house connected to the router. . .creating a network.

One in the middle of the house extending the connection.

It works fine.

Until tonight.

Now it'll work for about 30 minutes before STAYING GREEN. . .but not allowing anything to connect to it. My iPhone will give the wee skinny connecting thing and say "unable to connect", and my PS3 (where I noticed the problem as it kept booting me off and saying "Unable to connect) where I was trying to download a demo.

Does anyone know what to do?

EDIT: Is there a way to get the second airport (the extension) to show up as a separate airport - as opposed to an extension of the network. That way I could tell me PS3 upstairs to connect to that specific part of the network - instead of it jumping between each airport and losing connection randomly. :)

Help much appreciated :)
