Time Capsule to Extend a Network

I have been running our home network for years, mostly wired with a Time Capsule (2TB, doesn't do ac wireless, but does n), not sure on exact model/gen) providing the wireless network.  I recently purchased a new Airport Extreme with the intention that it would be the main station and then I would move the Time Capsule to another location in the house, connect it to ethernet and use the Time Capsule to extend the network.

 

The Airport Extreme is set up nicely has created its own wireless network both 5 and 2.4 as well as a Guest network. 

 

The Time Capsule was acting up before all of this so I performed a factory default reset on it and have configured it to Extend the Network created by the Airport Extreme.  However try as I might I continue to get an error on the Time Capsule that says the Time Capsule has been set up to extend a wireless network that it can't find. 

 

Yes, I have quadruple checked the name of the network to make sure it is the same.  I am at a loss.

 

Any thoughts?

Extend a wireless network is a setting that is used only if the Time Capsule is connecting using a wireless connection. And you indicate that the Time Capsule is connecting using Ethernet.

 

Change the setting to "Create a wireless network" that uses the exact same wireless network name(s) and same password. Make sure that the Time Capsule is configured to operate in Bridge Mode, which Apple calls "Off (Bridge Mode)"

 

Or, if you want to start over again and reset the Time Capsule back to factory default settings, you can use Apple's AirPort Utility set up "wizard" and it will automatically apply the correct settings to the Time Capsule.  During the setup, the utility will indicate that the Time Capsule is being set up to "extend using Ethernet", but if you check the settings in AirPort Utility after the Time Capsule has been set up, you will see that the "Create" setting was actually applied.
