Simple question but I can't seem to figure it out.
Basically I have a G5 tower with no wireless card- it's connected to a DSL modem.
However I want to play itunes on my stereo which across the room (30' or so)
I don't want wires running all over the place and I also at the same time want WIfi for my itouch and when friends come over with their laptops.
What is the best way to do this? It looks like I have to get a Airport extreme and also a express? Connect the extreme to my dsl modem and the express near the stereo?
Is there any other way to do this? I understand I can just get the express but that again doesn't help as that means my dsl modem would have to go near the stereo and I can't do that as my G5 tower isn't wifi.
Also, does Express only work with the Extreme or can I buy a cheaper wireless router?
And finally, what' the difference between extreme with gigabit and without?
Thanks in advance!
