Extending the Range of an Existing AirPort Extreme or
AirPort Express Network
You can extend the range of an existing AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express wireless
network by setting it up in a WDS. Wireless computers can connect to the network and
share the Internet connection, share files, and play network games. If you connect your
AirPort Express to your home stereo, computers on your wireless network can use
AirTunes to play music on the stereo from iTunes. If you connect a USB printer to your
AirPort Express, all of the computers on the network can print to it.

Extending the range of a network using a WDS may reduce overall network
performance.
