I have a "main" wireless router made by SMC that is in the basement. I plugged in an AE router on the first floor and configured it to "join" an existing network, namely SMC. My understanding is that the AE is now acting as a repeater or access point. Airport shows I am on SMC but which one? The fact that I don't have full bars tells me I am still on the SMC in the basement but that was not my intent.
