Hi again all.
Ok if I buy another airport express the second airport express would be set
to the toption that says I want to extend the range or whatever that option
is called then would the first airport express stay near the pc and connect
the way it does by joining a wireless network and connecting wirelessly or
would it connect to the router via ethernet cable and then the second
airport express would be set to extend the range option?
I'm wondering if I had an apple bass station whichn is using the newer n
standard if it would improve the range and then would I tell the airport
express unit that talks to the apple bass station to extend the range or
would it work better with 2 airport express units?
I only need the range to be extended by 20 metres or so.
Thanks.

yes, get another ae and then you will be able to play through both at the
same time.

HI all.
Ok all the airport express problems seem all sorted now.
My only problem is I have another stereo which is further away from the
airport express and i'm wondering the wireless signal is having problems
reaching the airport express out in the lounge.
The router I have is a 54g wireless router which my internet also runs
through and my airport express conects to that wireless router using wpa2
encryption.
Is there an extender or any other way I can get more wireless range so
the airport express in the lounge won't keep getting timeout errors while
trying to stream music?
Would having an airport extreeme bass station seen's it's using the newer
wireless n standard would that improve wireless signal at all or not?
I'm not really worried if I can't stream to the stereo out in the lounge
seen's the one in my bedroom i can stream to fine.
It's more the conveenience of streaming to the lounge for parties etc.
If there is another solution or a way I can get more wireless range from
either replacing my existing g router with an n router if that would help
i'll do it.
Is the newer n standard able to transmit further then the original
wireless g standard?
Thanks to anyone who may be able to help.
