Can I run two wireless local networks or should I merge all functions into one WiFi 802.11g/n net?
This is my first venture in setting up a WiFi device, a Time Capsule (2008). A couple years ago, my son set up an Airport Express. Now we have an aluminum Intel iMac and a MacBook in the mix. The current setup is: WLAN A: 802.11n only (5 GHz) to maximize throughput for iMac and MacBook. Want to reset Apple TV to this net. WLAN B: 802.11g (2.4GHz) for G4 iBook, two iPod Touches, son's iPhone and his business secure laptop PC. Currently handles Apple TV. Both are set at WPA2 Personal. Both access Internet in separate Bridge mode via a Verizon router which has Coax connection to Verizon's FiOS fiber/coax conversion box (Optical Network Terminal- ONT) outside the house. Verizon router's WiFi (802.11b/g) is turned off. I want the iBook to work seamlessly with Time Capsule. My wife needs to sync MacBook and iMac iTunes with Apple TV and iPod Touch. Are there ways to set up these machines and accessory devices for these functions with the two separate networks? Or is it best to put it all under the Time Capsule? Thanks for all the insight.
