My Internet connection is via cable with the cable modem entering the house near my office on the top floor. I have and Airport Extreme Base Station about five feet from the cable modem. Three computers are fed from the Base Station via Gigabit Ethernet through a GbEthernet switch. On the wireless side of things, an iMac on the main floor receives the wireless signal just fine. In the basement on the opposite side of the house, a PC laptop has fair to poor reception of the wireless signal. My thought for improving the basement reception is to place an Airport Express unit on the main floor as a relay. Anyone had experience with this kind of setup? My wireless network skills are minimal.
