Hub One as a passthrough modem for Airport Extreme

Hi,
I recently upgraded from standard broadband to fibre and have been sent a hub one, which I've been using for a few weeks now. I am pretty certain the wireless performance isn't as strong as it was on my airport extreme that I was using previously, so I want to go back to having that as my wireless router. Before I had a Draytek Vigor as the modem, but it's not compatible with the fibre connection so I would like to set the hub one up as a passthrough modem.
Does anyone know how I go about setting this up?
Thanks in advance...

there are a couple of options:
1) buy a vdsl modem - ebay you can get a cheapish second hand bt one
2) disable the wireless on the hub one and then plug in the airport extreme as a wireless access point in bridge mode (i think that's what they call it)

Ah, ok. The second option is what I was trying to achieve. I'll have a look at that. Are there any particular settings on either end that need to be inputted?

then plug it into one of the ethernet ports on your hub one.
