YOu can do the same with the Apple Airport and the Apple Airport express devices. I think they took this route to build big wireless clouds in schools etc.
Yeah, 2.4Ghz 802.11a/b/g should all be compatible..... Its how the devices talk to each other, linksys have designed there expanders to talk to the linksys equipment (linksys routers have a mini copy of linux on them) and i would assume that the expanders have the necessary connection details to be able to talk to them correctly. I tried to connect one to a D-Link setup we had, whilst it would connect to the D-Link router with no problems, it wouldnt allow traffic to pass through
