Can I use an Airport Extreme along with an Airport Express to effectively extend ethernet to a HDTV

I have a dual band airport extreme connected to Roadrunner serving my Macbook Pro, iPod touch, USB printer and a USB hard drive. I also have an airport extreme to stream iTunes audio to my stereo system. I am buying a Samsung 55B8000 HDTV that has a USB port to be used with a Samsung proprietary wireless adapter for wireless internet connection which I don't have. The TV also has an ethernet port that can be used for internet downloadable firmware updates, streaming internet video and some other goodies, That port can be easily set up as a DHCP connection to the internet. To avoid buying the proprietary Samsung adapter, can I use the ethernet port on the airport express to effectively extend the ethernet connection from the airport extreme to the airport express or is the airport express ethernet port only for a WAN connection and not a LAN connection? If the airport express won't do it, would a second airport extreme do it? i.e. use the LAN ports on both airports.

I need 16 ethernet 1000 ports AND dualband wireless G/N. How to expand the AirPort Extreme Base Station to give 13 more ethernet for onlineLANparty?

We regularly host LAN parties, most of which are wired through a hub and are off-line. However, more and more games are requiring that each PC be connected to STEAM and/or LIVE so we are looking for a solution where we can have 16 wired computers running at the same time, PLUS we want to have the flexibility to connect to the same network via wireless G or N.

The AirPort Extreme Base Station appears to be the perfect choice for the wireless aspect, but it only has 3 ethernet 1000 ports. Most other options only have 4. Is there a way for us to expand the number of ethernet 1000 ports on the AirPort Extreme Base Station?

We will further use this to connect PCs on CAT5e cables throughout our home. We have a dedicated Windows XP PC hooked up to the TV for Netflix and music (work) stations in the kitchen and two bedrooms, so we want those to be wired into 4 of the 16 wired ports.

I would guess that I could just plug a hub into one of the ethernet ports, but I don't know if that would get all the HUBbed PCs onto the internet or not.

Can I add a hub to increase the number of wired ethernet connections?

I'd like to extend the wired connection to other devices (Blue Ray player and DVR), but I've exceeded the number of ethernet ports in the back of the AirPort Extreme.

Can Airport Extreme expose a WD MyBook World Edition II with only an ethernet interface (no USB) to my iMac for TimeMachine backups?

I have a MyBook World Edition II (WDH2NC20000) that only has an RJ45 jack (no USB port). If I plug it into the AirPort, can my iMac use this storage for TimeMachine backups?

Does Airport Extreme support port 587?

Verizon has blocked port 25 and they are using port 587 for sending email. My Netgear router doesn't support port 587. Does Airport extreme support port 587 and is it easy to setup?

Thanks!
