Hi all,
After plenty of battles with Linksys, Netgear and Asus in regards to wifi stability I went with an Apple Extreme which currently has 171 days of uptime with zero drops. I have some range issues with phones and iPads at one end of my house so I was thinking of extending.
I see it is fairly easy to add an airport express, I could put one of these in my bedroom which is one level above the AirPort Extreme and gets full signal.
I do have a cat5e cable that runs upstairs to my PC in my bedroom, so I could also get a switch and then wire the express? Is this only a better solution only if I'm not getting full wifi from the extreme at the location?
New to extending sorry
