I have no experience with wifi range extenders but it seems to me it
should really just 'resend' the signal. If the extender is a 802.11g
device, I'd expect it to produce the same throughput as the original
source. I can imagine there might be some problems with both devices using
the same channel. But that's just an uneducated guess.
