Extending the Range of an Existing AirPort Extreme or AirPort
Express Network
You can connect an additional AirPort Express to extend the range of your existing
AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express network. Adding a base station or AirPort Express to
an existing network creates what is known as a Wireless Distribution System (WDS).
If the AirPort network is connected to the Internet, computers can connect to the
AirPort network and share the Internet connection.
