Hello. I have an iphone5 and I use it for a hotspot for mylaptop and printer. Does any one know a device that will extend its range? I have tried a Netgear and Belkin range extenders without any luck. Thank you!

Hello. I have an iphone5 and I use it for a hotspot for mylaptop and printer. Does any one know a device that will extend its range? I have tried a Netgear and Belkin range extenders without any luck. The Belkin was closest to working. IT could find my iphone but when it create a new network, both the laptop and printer could not find the new extended network. Thank you!

Hi - you can do what you want to do with AirPlay from your iPhone - but unfortunately it is not as easy as the people in the Apple store told you - your first problem is that you have a non Apple router - you cannot extend a non Apple router wirelessly with the Express - you can only join the network and connect an ethernet device to it - you can however connect via ethernet and have it create a wireless network of its' own - you can set this up from your iPhone or the XP - but this is a complicated setup and would involve many different discussion areas of this forum - therefore I would suggest that you use your 90 days of support and consult directly with Apple to do this - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
