I'm thinking of replacing my netgear router and AP with two AE. Can the the airport utility on the iPhone do the job of setting up the two AE including changing the IP address to 10.0.0.1 or do I need to do this from an imac computer. I ask as my imac is in for repair and only have access to airport utility via my iPhone at the moment.
 
I was not able to use my iPhone 5 to set up my brand new AirPort Extreme last week using the Airport Utility iOS app. I had to use my Mac for some reason.

Not sure what is going on with the previous two users, but I was at my daughter's house a couple weeks ago and I could manage her new AE from both my iPhone and iPad (both iOS 7) with no problems.
