I only have internet through a 4G hub and the 4G signal sucks next to my computer, so I want to move the hub to another room.

I have an iMac with an airport express creating my network. I want to create my network at my computer because it works better for streaming directly to my Apple TV's.

Can I plug my 4G hub into another airport express in another room and add them to my network extending the network? I though the internet has to be connected to the initial router that is creating the network.

What kind of connection is your "4G Hub" accepting? Ethernet, USB, WiFi?

Make/model of the "4G Hub" would be helpful.

My 4G hub is also a wireless router but I found it sucked as a wireless router so I have it wired via ethernet to a airport express.

The hub is NetComm 3G8WV-TS Smart Hub.

Thanks.
