Hi there,

Recently I acquired an Airport Extreme base station. I have 2 wifi networks because I am not on cable, it's an adsl service. At the moment the extreme is in bridge mode and its like the 2 networks are fused together, so the PC can access my mac's files and so on.

However, I want to be able to point to opendns' name servers inside my extremes settings, as opposed to individual computers, and wondered that if I got it to share a public ip address, would it bugger up my connectivity in any way? I'm too wuss to try it in case i can't connect. Then i won't be able to sleep at all.

Does anyone here know what I am on about? I hope so, and would love some advice.

Much appreciated, thanks. :)
 
Nope, it should work fine. But what does ADSL have to do with having two wireless routers? Or do you mean that your ADSL modem has a built-in router?
