Fritzbox 7390 + 2 Belgacom set-top-boxes

[JuJu]

Hi everybody,

Some time ago I had some queries on the Fritzbox 7390 which is installed now and works flawlessly. My (probably silly) question is if I can connect 2 Belgacom set-top-boxes to my FB 7390 ? From the provider side (Belgacom) 2 set-top-boxes are supported in my area.

And another tricky question: I have still an apple airport express sitting on a shelf and which I would like to use to extend my wifi network. Is it possible to hook the airport express with the FB 7390 ? Or should I better go for the Fritzbox extender - with the disadvantage that I would loose airplay ?

Thanks in advance

On your first question:
Yes, you can connect 2 Belgacom TV decoders to the FritzBox (port 3 and 4);
Provided you have selected "Belgacom VDSL + IPTV" in the Internet set-up menu.

On your 2nd question:
If you have your apple airport express sitting on a shelf doing nothing, why not just trying?
Connect the airport express to one of the LAN ports (1 or 2) of your FritzBox, and set-up as client (not as router).
