Hi ladies and gentleman. This is my first time posting on this board with a question. Here it goes. I want to stream my ITunes to my reciever. I was wondering if I can do this if I do not have an airport card. I will explain my set up as follows:
1. 3rd floor of house:
Broadband Modem going to dlink router. Router connected to 1 airport express (for use for broadband connection to wireless Apple powerbook), 1 Imac, and to another Cat5 ethernet cable which is wired going down 3 floors to the basement
2. Basement Room:
The ethernet cable is connected to another dlink router so I can have 4 open ports for broadband connectivity downstairs. The d-link router downstairs has cat5 ethernet cables connected to my G4 tower and Xbox for online gameplay.
Now that you know how I am connecting, my question is this: Can I purchase an airport express and connect it with an ethernet cable wired to my router downstairs and have it play Itunes on my reciever which is also located downstairs (about 15ft from my G4 tower) taking the signal from my G4 (downstairs)? I was wondering about interference from the other 2 macs also(Imac upstairs and powerbook) ? I am really confused here and need some advice. Thanks for your time!- Barry
