I have to admit it's my mistake, reading so many reviews turning pages between Airport extreme and Airport express I opted for the newsiest and the most expensive model (Airport Extreme Base station). Did not realize though that apple chose not to add a small tiny hole called "Air Tunes" which was the main reason for me to replace my still very good Netgear. Now I have to spend another $100 to buy Airport express with Air Tunes to get my very expensive! Wi-Fi network in-order.For the ease of installations, speed and quality I am giving it 4 stars.

It was a little difficult to get it working with the AT&T 2-Wire modem. I had to call in to both Apple and AT&T before I got it working. I still am not sure how it started working but it does and it works as expected. I have a hard drive connected to the network and I am very pleased with the higher level of security.

I have used NetGear, Belkin, LinkSys, and D-Link wireless routers in the past. All of them had issues with coverage area and all were cryptic (Belkin less so) in the setup. The latest Airport Extreme was a snap (10 minutes tops) to set up. I am now sharing two printers (one over ethernet and one over USB) wirelessly. I have also setup a secure USB backup hard disk wirelessly along with these two printers. This is because you can plug a USB hub into the one USB port on this router and share all of the devices on the USB hub wirelessly. This feature is what sealed the deal for me... I have not found this feature on any other router for under $200. Get this one!

Apple's new base station is much much easier to use than its predecessors. Also, setting up a wireless network with other apple products (such as the airport extreme) connecting to the base station is also a breeze. I had no trouble setting up my network and it took only a matter of minutes. The one downfall is the range. It still has been difficult finding a wireless base station that can transmit as far as I need. Hence, the 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, a great buy, especially for homes in the 2000 sq. ft. and under range.

Amazingly, this product worked... right out of the box, and without me having to be a wireless networking guru! I am a very experienced computer user (have been building my own machines for over 10 years) and have now owned several different wireless routers. The key problem has always been getting all of the pieces of equipment to talk to each other. Well, this product worked right out of the box. I bought two of them, one for my base station and the other to plug my XBOX 360, Vonage adapter, and PS-2 into. Additionally, I have linked up a Sony laptop with a Netgear WPN511 PCMCIA card, my Nintendo Wii, and a MacBook pro to the network, all seemlessly with no issues! I will say that I set this system up on my Mac Pro desktop so I can't speak for the PC setup program. Finally, I shared out numerous drives and files between machines as well as a printer. All with no issues. I am using WPA2 security with a 45 character password with no issues. I highly recommend this product if you stream large files, or have other high bandwidth requirements.

I bought it cause it could serve files, but that feature never worked properly for me... anytime transfers of any size happened, it would lock up and drop the connection. It was picky about which drives would work with it. Actually, it dropped the connection fairly often. I know someone else who has the same problems with the base station dropping the connection.I went back to using my graphite UFO base station to serve G, and started using my iMac to serve N to my MBP. Find a better solution like I did and skip it.

The signal strength of this product is mediocre and I have experienced many dropped signals. I have an Intel Core Duo iMac and it is not able to take advantage of the n wireless configuration. Apple requires an Intel 2 Core Duo iMac in order for this to happen. Additionally, this is the Extreme that does not have the 1 gigabit ports, so even with the wired configuration, this router is lacking. I'm going to return this and find something much less expensive.

I'm getting my Amaz"on", late Friday night (pathetic...) and see that there must have been a bad batch because a fistful of dudes here are upset. Not to rub it in, but my experience with this base station has been very, very good. I love it. I especially like the configuration software (which I also use to tweak a couple AP Expresses). The NYTs tech podcast demonstrated far better reception and thru put using this over other 802.11n stations. Oh, well I am a lucky one.

When I got my first Airport Extreme I was impressed how easy it was to set up. Attaching an external hard drive and usb printer was really simple. Making it work with my Windows Xp Pro desktop and my Macbook Pro was as simple as installing the supplied software. Make sure you read the instructions to set up for Windows for the printer and external drive. I was satisfied until I tried to set up a wireless bridge.Actually I tried several bridges/access points and was unable to find any of them with the Airport Extreme. Updated the software and firmware with no luck. Fortunately Amazon's excellent return policy allowed me to cross-ship a new Airport Extreme so I didn't have to go without a network. New one works great. Would recommend this to anyone that has a cross platform (Mac OS and Windows) setup at home and needs a network disk and share a printer.

Got mine about two weeks ago and all I can say is that it just works beautifully. Setup was a snap, no webpages or reading a manual to find out what the default IP address is, or anything like that. I configured this thing in 5 minutes literally (I'm a geek though) and have not touched it since then. I'm using all the features, cable router, wireless, sharing two disks and printing (using a small Belkin 4 port USB HUB) and all this functionality is just transparent on my Mac. Wireless signal quality is surprisingly good considering there are no antennas hanging out the device. Also, the disk sharing feature works quite fast over wireless, but you really feel the difference if you are wired though (I'm using G). It has a couple of minor drawbacks in my opinion, (1) lack of GigE, I don't care about it but can be a dealbreaker for some guys and (2) pricey if you just want a router. Although, if you think about all the features it makes sense to spend a few extra $.

This is by far the best router we have ever had. It was extremely easy to set up with our ibook, powerbook and imac, and wireless canon printer. We have not had to reset it even once. Prior to buying the Airport Extreme Base Station we had a belkin router which had to be reset at least daily and eventually overheated and stopped working all together (and it behaved even worse when we were running our old Dell desktop PC). We are about to get a pc laptop (reluctantly) for business since we don't want to defile our macs with windows. I expect to be able to set that up to work with the Airport just as easily, but will add to this review if their are any surprises.

I owned the previous model, and never had any problems with it, so I upgraded to this one. No dropped signals, a very solid WiFi network. Works with both my Wifi-N based Mac, as well as PC's.However, this unit also allows you to share several hard drives. Unlike some network attached unit makers, the Apple product does NOT require you to format the hard drive to a special format. Just take existing hard drives and share them onto the network. You will have to move all of the files to a shared directory, but this allows you to not share the entire drive, if you desire.Only one USB port is provided, but you can attach a hub and use multiple hard drives, as well as a printer. Network printing and hard drives are the way to go if you have several computers. This allows you to print anywhere and backup to one common location.If you are upgrading to this product from the previous Apple router, make sure you remove your old airport utilities. They do not work with the new hardware.

This was terrible. I returned after hours with tech support and days of email exchanges with Apple Support Desk.The product will probably be better with future software updates, but in my experience, it was fairly unreliable in its current state. Examples of problems: wouldn't download drm managed content online, had problems when downloading itunes purchased music (the first time I've had that problem in 4 years of ipods and itunes), couldn't connect to my corporate VPN, and finally, just as evidence of the lack of QA on this device, the included instruction manuals were for the previous version of the Apple Extreme. The images were of the previous white, button-shaped device.This was a genuine disappointment, and it seemed to stem from bad software and bad QA. Others seem to have had more success, but I'm back on my 802.11g airport extreme and all problems have magically disappeared.

My setup should have been super simple. (It was super simple for my old Airport Extreme) Mac G4 Desktop without an internal Airport card and an Airport Express. My simple goal was to send iTunes to my stereo via an Airport Express. After five hours of trying to get it working myself, I called AppleCare.After an hour on the phone with AppleCare, we finally got my Extreme to link up with my Express. We had to do three hard resets on my Express. We had to temporarily hardwire the Express to the Extreme with an Ethernet cable. Moreover, we had to manually copy and paste the Airport ID number from one unit to the other. This procedure was NOT in the owner's manual or in Apple's online self help!I have been using Macs at home for 21 years and this is the biggest headache that I have ever experienced in the world of Apple Macintosh.I think that the PC Guy on the Apple commercials got the last laugh on this one.

I bought this Airport Extreme to bump up the speed of my network, but also to complement the two Airport Express devices that I own. The Extreme worked well for the first (my network seemed slightly faster), but failed MISERABLY on the second point. This product is completely incompatible with the Airport Expresses, despite what Apple's website says.I highly recommend that anyone looking to buy this go to the Apple support discussion forum first and look for people who have tried to use it the same way you did. Otherwise, you're going to be stuck with a very expensive paperweight.

Although only one of my Apple products (Apple TV) takes advantage of the new 802.11n, I am still very happy with my new Airport Extreme. One of the very noticeable improvements is the Extreme's increased range. I live Europe in a 100+ year old building with very thick walls. My apartment is approximately 1,500 square feet with the base station at one end. With my old Extreme I got one bar (using my MacBook) in my furthest room. I now have full bars. Streaming to my AppleTV seems quite fast. Setup of the Base Station was quick and easy. Overall I'm very satisfied with my new base station and do not hesitate to recommend it.

Wasted better part of three days, 2 hours on phone with Apple, 80 miles to visit Apple Store for help-twice. Nothing worked.Finally put it in a replacement unit and now all works beautifully.Simple set up, high speeds in spite of much possible interence. Big improvement in performance over older "flying saucer" Extreme base stations.Do read the set up instructions-they are well done.Be aware that if you set this until to the new radio standards ("n" only), some people with older Macs (and others) will not able to connect.PC connected by just plugging ethernet cable-that's all!

This unit works fine by itself with an 802n compatible mac. but if you add it to a network with other airports and streaming and remote printing, you are in for a most un-apple like experience. Just look at the HUNDREDS of posts on the airport 802n discussion group of people with problems using this kind of setup. Apple has yet to address this.You've been warned.

This base station was installed between a Comcast cable internet connection and a new iMac computer. Installation was easy.Compared to our old DSL service, the cable wireless combination is very fast.The range is limited to line-of-sight spaces in our house. The signal does not reach upstairs from the main floor. I thought it would reach further so that is a disappointment.

The range on this thing is amazing. The ease of setup and use is great. The design is great. I wish I could be more detailed here, but it's just great all-around. Nothing more to say than that. If you have an Apple computer and need a wireless router, this should be the only one you buy. Worked perfectly and quickly right out of the box, and hasn't stopped for a even a moment in the few months I've had it.

I bought this to replace a Max G router and have never regretted it. I'm using a MacBook Pro and it works so much better than the other router. My old router used to have to be reset every couple of days because it would drop the wireless connection. This router has never dropped the connection in 2 months and it's smoking fast. I read some of the other reviews and can't understand how it could take five hours to set up. I was up in about twenty minutes. If you want a fast router that doesn't drop the ball this is the tool for you.

I spent two days tried to have it formatted by my Powerbook G4 and set up a wireless network to replace my Microsoft wireless router. No luck. It is on the shelf ever since. People at the Genius Bar in local apple store may be able to help but it is too much troubel.To set up other routers with a PC you can easily hire some one to set it up for you at your home for a couple of hundred dollars. Not Apple.If you don't have time don't buy this product.
