Does anyone know if Apple makes a wireless repeater/booster for the new Airport Extreme base station? I just ordered this but my router will have to sit on the far end of my house and I would like to boost the signal about halfway through my house.

If not, is anyone using another brand wireless repeater that works well? Thanks!

You can always get an Airport Express and use it as a bridge.
 
Any other advice/recommendations for a good repeater?

I know it's been a couple years, and you've likely solved this problem already, but if not, the new Airport Express can "extend" an AEBS or TimeCapsule network quite effectively. I have set this up for multiple friends and they're very happy with the results...
