Q: Have an AirPort Express - Need Help

Got a new CenturyLink Modem/Router and am having TROUBLE resetting up my AirPort Express. Managed to get Century Link Wireless up and running. Then somehow created a Wireless WiFi Network which also seems to work. But the Amber light on the AirPort Exp continues to blink. My goal is to extend the range of my wireless wifi in my home. Don't know what I've done or how to fix it. Please help. Thx.

iMac (24-inch Early 2008), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5), iPad3

    Unfortunately, you will not be able to extend the wireless range of your new CenturyLink modem/router with the AirPort Express as the two are not compatible for this feature ... at least not if you want the connection between them to be wireless. However, if you can support having a wired connection between them, then they both can be configured for a "roaming" network. This type of network will effectively increase the wireless range as well.
