Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Streaming 3d movies to my Samsung 3DTV using AirPort express and a wireless LAN adapter has not worked. What is my cheapest option for making this happen?

I need a transfer rate minimum of 9mbps. My AirPort express and 3DTV are on different floors, so I cannot directly connect with an ethernet cable. Can I buy an older AirPort express, use it as a bridge, and connect my TV to it via an ethernet cable?

AirPort Express 802.11N (2nd generation), Mac OS X (10.7.5)

Hi rockchalker,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


For 802.11n Wi-Fi base stations, creating a roaming network is by far the best choice. This will provide the best throughput between the base stations and your Wi-Fi devices.


If you are unable to build the recommended Roaming network, then a Wirelessly Extended Network is the next best option.


For more information on this, take a look at this article:

Hope this helps,

Mario
