Multiple airport-units - Airplay issue.

My network consists of one airport extreme and one airport express unit.


I am located quite far from the main unit (extreme), so I'm using the express as an network extender, or a "repeater" as you might call it. The express also doubles as my airplay receiver. So far, so good.


My brother, who is located closer to the extreme automatically gets connected to the express, (since it is even closer). The problem is that whenever I use airplay, his connection to our network gets really unstable and laggy (Since the airplay function occupies at least 150 kbit/s of upload to the express). And he's giving me **** about it. User uploaded file


My question is: is it possible for my brother to bypass the airport express connection, and directly connect to the airport extreme, while still charing the same network? User uploaded file


Hope that wasn't to confusing!
Cheers!
