Too many AirPorts?

I have seen it before. I may need to do some other testing to verify under which conditions it appears.

Most definitely so remember being on 5.xx. Let us know! I couldn't find it in any apple documentation about that as well. Only found it in Express documentation.

I do know that when in Join mode an Extreme or Time Capsule's Ethernet ports do not work. The Express was designed with that functionality though.

EDIT: I do see the option in AirPort Utility 5.6.1 but the same option click does nothing in 6.3.1 but I remember it doing something in 6.2 I believe.

I current run 2 AirPort Extremes in my house. One upstairs (current Gen) and one down stairs (5th Gen). I just ordered a referb Time Capsule (current Gen) from Apple because I needed a bigger backup drive and the price was right. My question is will 3 APE’s create any issues at home? My house is lonely 2700 Sq Ft.

Running three airports really won't be a problem for you. But if you get good coverage in the house with just two, replace the oldest Extreme with the new Time Capsule and sell the old Extreme.
