I'm using an Airport Extreme base with an Airport Express downstairs to extend the range. I get all 4 bars on the Airport meter at the top of the screen.
For grins, I downloaded a few widgets that have signal meters -- they indicate 40-55% on their scales.
Which led to my question -- what is considered a "strong" signal? I would have thought that with my configuration I would have been 90% or better (the Express is only a few feet from the iMac downstairs, and this is a "standard" 2 story house -- no metal/brick walls, etc.).
