Hey,

I have a friend who has an Airport Extreme base station and a MediaGate MG-35. (if you don't know what a MediaGate is http://www.mediagateusa.com/html/mg35ndas.html ...basically a NAS with AV cables...)

Airport is in office which is down the hall from the living room where the MG will reside by the TV. Running a cable is not possible. Plugging the MG up to the USB on the base station is not possible because AV cables must reach the TV.

I've also been thinking about getting an MG but wasn't exactly sure how I was going to connect it to my network. Bridges are still pretty high but I didn't want to invest in a second wireless router either. He is thinking of getting an Airport Express, plugging the MG into it, and then it will be shared on the network...in theory...and accessible by any computer on the Airport Network. I don't know anything about the Expresses...

Is this possible?:confused:
