[QUOTE="Deckyon, post: 1333324, member: 197651"] There is no need to use any "extenders" for Wifi. I live in a 3800 square foot, 2-story house, with the AirPort Extreme located centrally on the main floor. The whole house is covered and signal strength barely drops off at all in the furthest corners. Even my deck is covered easily. I have a Blu-Ray Wifi-N player, ATV2, MBP, iPad and iPhone running with an Airport Express hooked up to my main stereo for AirPlay music. Also on the network, but not on all the time, is an old dell wifi-G and motorola Droid X that my roommate has. Everything works and connects and streams just fine. For note: I have my roommates stuff set up connecting to the Guest network. Never had complaints about connection from them. I would let your modem be a modem and have the APEX run the DHCP - that way you have the most control. [/QUOTE]
