My router's in an inconvenient place (utility closet, basement) Can I use an extender to operate my Flashback somewhere more convenient?

Thanks for checking on this!

This can work, but because internet speed, signal strength, and choice of Wi-Fi extender varies from home-to-home, we can't guarantee that it will. We want you to have an amazing experience with your Flashback, so we're cautious in recommending this route given the range of success (or failure) we've seen.

That variability also limits our ability to help troubleshoot or reach a resolution if an extender set up is not working in your home, which is a real bummer. Given the above, we generally recommend ensuring that you're able to plug the Tin Can Flashback setup directly into your router.
