Will the Airport Extreme help boost a Blackberry 8900 wifi signal as well as my iphone4 wifi signal? Our service is so weak we range from 1 to 3 bars.

I can get wifi through my airport express just fine and have it hooked into the ATT modem directly. However: my iPhone4 (ATT) and my partner's Blackberry 8900 (t-mobile) get very weak signals either on 3g or our wireless.
I looked at prices and options of home boosters like Wilson and Zboost but pricing and mounting is not what I need to get into. I'm in a large 4000sf home with no access to put up an external antenna nor will my HOA allow it.

I own a Mac Book Pro with snow leopard and he has windows 7.

Just can't get through a simple phone call without loosing the signal at least once during the call.

BTW.... ATT already checked out the cell tower and my technical side on the iPhone4.

Suburbs are great unless you are dependent on cellular use for you home based business!

How do I tell which wifi band I am using? Running Leopard on a Mac Book Pro.

I can do a ifconfig en1, but I would like to know more details about my wireless connection, such as which radio frequency I am using, and can I change it, and if so, how?

Bad wifi signal downstairs with Virgin Media Superhub

I have terrible wifi signal downstairs since being upgraded to a Virgin Media Superhub (the hub is upstairs).

Has anyone found the Airport Extreme improves signal around the house? I only live in a small 1920's 3 bed semi and the signal was fine downstairs before the Superhub. I am tired of running up the data bill on my iphone and ipad when i am at home already paying for broadband that i can't connect to!

3G vodaphone modem

During my holiday's i use a 3G USB modem to connect my Mac Book Pro to the Internet (through Vodaphone Espana)
Is there a way to connect this USB 3G modem to the Air port extreme so that a local WIFI network can be setup (like for my I phone and I pad or the Mac Book of a visitor)
