How do you add airport express to an airport extreme wireless network to extend the range of the signal?
The quick and easy way to add an Airport Express to an Airport Extreme network is to use the AirPort Express Assistant which is on the disc that came with the Express. This will talk you through the options. Just tell it to connect to your existing network and it will figure it all out for you. It will ask for your Extreme's password and then automatically configure the Extreme to use the Express. Restart the Express and you are done. If you prefer to get your hands dirty use the Airport utility which is in the Utilities folder within the Applications folder. Allowing for different versions of Mac OS X/Airport utility you generally select your Extreme base station and then WDS (Wireless Distribution System) options. Click the + button to add to the network. Enter the MAC address for your Express. Turn off Distribute IP addresses on the Network.

I don't quite understand how wireless internet works If you buy say the Airport Extreme from Apple do you also have to pay a monthly fee or can you take it with you Please Help?
The airport extreme simply makes a relatively small wireless network. The best example of what an Airport Extreme base station is is to compare it to your home phone line and phone. Most people have wireless home phones now. They have a phone line coming into the house and a base station that sends the data received through the phone line to phone handsets somewhere in the house. This is like an Airport Extreme. Your internet provider runs internet to your home (this is the monthly payment). Your Airport Extreme makes a small network which broadcasts the internet in your home. Inside your computer is a wireless card that receives the signal just like your handset on your phone receives the signal from the phone base station. So you don't pay a monthly fee for the Airport Extreme, you pay for the internet that the AE broadcasts. The airport simply makes the internet wireless and your Airport card in your Macbook receives the signal. So you can take the Airport Extreme with you, but you would have to plug it into someone's existing internet that they pay monthly for to get any internet data. The Airport by itself does not have any internet.
