Apple's "extend a wireless network" function appears to be a proprietary feature that will only work with other Apple routers.
As far as we know, devices from other manufacturers are not compatible with this feature.
Bottom line....It would be extremely unlikely that this would work, but it's worth a try if you already have the products in hand.
Please post on your results.

Thanks for your help. I already tried it to no avail. Just making sure I wasn't missing something. The boys at Best Buy said any extender will work with Airport Extreme.
I will be returning the Airport Extreme and buying another Lynxys Router (first one laster 7 years) and my iphone4 would connect. Maybe apple dosent have it ALL figured out yet.
2Macbooks, 1 Pad2, 2 PC's, 2 Droids, 1 Xbox all connect, just not the iphone 4.
Any ideas on that?
Much appreciated!

They need some more training, I would suspect.
Sorry, I do not have an iPhone 4 here to check out, so can't offer any specific help on that question. Probably best to post in the iPhone support area for that:
Thanks for the quick response.
I keep seeing the comment that other extenders will not work with the Airport Extreme. This is not true. I not only used a Hawking HWREN1 with my Airport Extreme for over 3 years but was also able to use the "extend network" feature. Since the Mac updates have come out and I've upgraded my operating system I cannot use the original disk that came with the Airport Extreme. Could this question along with the one I just posted seperately be reexamined by Apple Wireless support?
