Can I extend the range of a Belkin-based wifi network?

Where I live we have a wifi network with a Belkin modem. The signal is very weak in my area. Could a new Airport be used to extend the range? I have an older Airport Express and Airport, but when I have tried to use them to accomplish this, it seems they are not compatible with non-Apple modems. Is the new Airport Express different in this regard?

Use AirPort Express (dual band) as base station with older Time Capsule (single band) as range extender?

Can I use a new AirPort Express (dual band) as my primary base station in place of my older Time Capsule (single band), then use the Time Capsule to extend the range of the Airport Express? Would this give me use of both bands from the Express for my other devices? Would wireless Time Machine backups to the Time Capsule still function with this setup (via the Express)? Are there any other implications?

Does Airport Express support the new TVs which have built in WiFi for streaming content such as Netflix?

I have a New Sony TV which has built in WiFi. Does the Airport extreme support streaming with this TV.

Have an older Airport Extreme, one band, 2ghz and it does not stream fast enough. Keeps loosing connection, has to stop and load the content.

Want to purchase a new Airport with 2 & 5 ghz speeds and dual bands, but only if it supports fast steamless streaming.

Can the new AirPort Express extend an existing network with an ethernet cable from AirPort Extreme to Express's WAN port?

Can the new (June 11 2012) AirPort Express Base Station extend an existing network by connecting an ethernet cable from an AirPort Extreme to the Express's WAN port, thereby making the Express both a wireless access point and also an ethernet port via its LAN part?

Can the new Airport Express Base Station extend the network from a new Airport Extreme Base Station AND use Airplay at the same time?

My old Airport Express cannot do both, you either have to set it up to create a network, join an existing network to extend it, or set it up for AirTunes. If the new one could do both, I'll buy it.

Does the new Airport Express have noticeable range improvements from it's predecessor?

I currently use the old Airport Express to extend my wireless network broadcasted from my Time Capsule 2nd generation.
Unfortunately, the room I have my Airport Express in, which has poor service to the Time Capsule directly, is not always within working range.

If I upgraded my Airport Express to the newer unit, should I expect to see a NOTICEABLE improvement in coverage range?

I'm specifically asking those users who have used both; do you notice a significant improvement worthy of spending $100 on upgrading my device, keeping in mind this is really only so I can get strong WiFi extended from my Time Capsule and have it more reliable than the extended signal I currently have from the older Airport Express.
