If your AirPort Extreme is a newer "square" version with rounded corners, this model will support Apple's "extend a wireless network" feature.


Either a new AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme....or Time Capsule....could be used to "extend a wireless network" to provide more wireless coverage by connecting to your "main" AirPort Extreme using wireless only.
