Airport Range, confused


i have airport extreme , express. express configured extend range. settings both wireless n @ 2.4 ghz. wpa2 personal.

extreme on 1 side of house , express in middle reach other end. use these in college when there parents have uverse , therefore have own router.

last year when home on break reached other edge of house year doesnt. switched uverse while away 2 routers being next each other effect range or performance? att router wireless g helps. thought extreme cover entire house house 50 ft reaches 35 why use express. , when next express extending half wifi bars filled. thanks!
 

yes having them next each other can cause interference. wireless g 2.4 ghz

several things can influence wireless range.
number of walls.
construction of walls - example old plaster walls chicken wire in them solid far wi-fi concerned.
angle you're going through walls - going though wall @ 90 deg angle makes wall appear thinner going through @ shallow angle.
other sources of rf in same area, microwave ovens, baby monitors, cordless phones (other base stations)
