Don't know why but I never felt like investing in a special router for
normal home internet usage. Have just been kind of satisfied with the
netgear router got from my isp. Currently as much as 7 devices connect to
internet wirelessly through that router and 1 desktop through ethernet
connection. Why should I buy an expensive apple airport extreme then?
In my home network which consists of my macbook, imac, apple tv, wdtv
(hardwired), all connected wirelessly to the airport extreme with a 250gb
external drive hooked to the airport via usb port on back I get transfer
speeds of 5.8MB/s. Amazing in my books. My wireless internet runs just as
fast as if it was hard wired. Hope that answered you question.
Can you go hard-line from the airport to a game console? Going hard-line is
better for online gaming so that's why I am asking. So basically wireless
for the laptop and hard-line for the ps3 from the airport. I see all the
Ethernet opening in the back of the airport so my assumption is yes.
with airport express you can not have any wired connections, there is only
one ethernet port which hooks up to the cable modem. airport extreme has 3
extra ethernet ports for wired connections. airport express has an audio
port for wireless streaming of music, airport extreme does not
btw, for me, its annoying to have the hard disk "untitled" under you mac
hard drive. You can actually change it by going to microsoft and rename
your disk (local c) to another name like "windows" or something to make it
look nice :D hahah, great vid anyways,....
i have wireless-g broadband router with speedbooster, and i have had it for
a number of years and its working great, but i also have airport extreme
and i run them at the same time does that make my internet connection
slower??
i have a dell computer and idk how to enable wifi on it. any ideas? and how
does the computer find the airport? does it find it by the airport utility
icon? as u can see i have alot of questions and i need some answers
Has anyone had this buzzing noise when downloading/uploading data trought
AEBS? Mine just started doing that and I wonder if anyone else has
encountered this problem. Aand if someone knows how to fix it.
airport extreme has wired and i think 4 extra wireless connections, express
only has one wired and wireless. extreme can support more simultaneous
users. extreme has greater range and higher bandwidth.
can i use this router with verizon? if so i'm just going to get one of
these because the router we have now keeps shutting off every couple hours
and verizon refuses to replace it for free.
to create a new network on the airport extreme do you just need to plug in
the power and it will work or do you have to plug it into something else
aswell ??
your the retard the router can too effect the speed of the internet. what
if it doesn't provide full connection.

Apple Airport Extreme Wired/Wireless Router (Review)
The Airport Extreme features simultaneous dual bands in the 2.4 and 5 GHz spectrum. Also features tight integration with MobileMe. This is also a follow up to ...
My household has major problems with this router. We have a guest network
for out renters downstairs and other guests, and a network for the family
to use. This piece of hardware works excellent for a while, then suddenly..
BAM! problems like connections dropping, crashing, slower speed than 94% of
the country i live in (Norway) for like weeks. Then it gets slowly better.
Tried restarting the router, tried to change channels, only thing I haven't
tried yet is to change the standard. disappointed
HELP!!!! I got my airport extreme.. like 2 years old......I Had installed
the airport software on my computer .. but for some reason I had to reboot
the computer and delete everything... the software of airport was deleted
from my computer..... NOw i want to get all my stuff I had in the airport
.....But I lost the CD.. how can i get back all my stuffs.. of the
airport??????????
Thanks for the review, I was looking for an upgrade of my wireless network
and was considering Linksys, Netgear, Apple etc. The Airport Extreme is
what I am leaning towards. Im not an Apple fanboy or anything but I do own
an iPhone, Apple TV, and a MacBook Pro. So going Apple seems appropriate.
One thing... How is the range on this Router?
Is there a known issue with this product? It will not run on a 5ghz signal.
Can anybody get it to work? I also heard that the issue is worse with
Macbook pro's with core 2 dou processer. Anyway It will let me connect and
says connected 5ghz but it wont load a website. Any ideas or known issues.
I've tried both firmware 7.5 and 7.5.1.
I've been utilizing this for a couple of days now, and I am completely
amazed at how stable my network has become. I use this in conjuction with
my AT&T 2wire modem/router. I've split my 10+ wifi devices among the 2. I
have 2 iphones (3GS & 4) and 2 PC desktops connected to my Airport Extreme
and I couldn't be more satisfied.
@kdp8791 If you are asking, Yes you can connect a USB hub on the back to
connect multiple Drives/Printers. This is how I use mine. Also, from you
more recent question. You can use a AirPort Express , or another extreme to
extend wireless easily, but not sure (or never tried it) with a Linksys or
other router
I am going to college and moving to an apartment of my own and I am worried
that I may have slow internet being provided in the apartment complex.
Should I buy this product? Also, does it work with non-apple products? Does
it still work if I don't have an ethernet cable connected to it?
Hello! I bought a airport extreme the other day and when i got home i found
out that my desktop does not have wireless. I plugged out the network cable
from my pc and plugged in into my airport extreme. Can i buy another
network cable to connect it from my airport extreme to my pc
So what I would do is plug this into my at&t modem whatever thing and then
i can just plug in a portable harddrive and have access to that harddrive
at all times while on my network??? Or can I already plug my portable
harddrive into my att router and access it?
we're paying for 70mB/s download and 30 upload. Though our area restricts
us to 30mB/s download and 10 upload. On the good days, this is what we get
(though speed is spilt on multiple connections leaving me to like 3,2mB/s
download on normal downloads).
wow, really great review. I love your fast and precise talking. much more
useful then reviews from other users. no "lets unpack this" "now i cut this
open" "we have the manual here, and ... eemmmh ... the package is nice"
really great! thank you!
Ok. so i have the fastest comcast internet availible in my home i use it
for gaming with my ps3 online. now i want to have wifi so i can use my
iphone and i do not have a computer or laptop. can i set up wifi with my
ps3?
in your vid at 8:09 ... I do not have anywhere near that many options ...
all I have is: 802.11a/n - 802.11bg and 802.11a - 802.11bg I literally just
bought it ... works GREAT .. but want to tweak. It is a 5th Gen Help ??
how does this work with an xbox 360???? I also have 2 macbook's and a
windows desktop. Currently have a linksys wrt54G. IS this worth IT??? my
linksys has to be rest like 10 times a day, its really annoying
@joeallev1 Yes, I just did it last week, although with a time capsule. I
DID have to work with applecare and with verizon, in order to make it
happen. The 5ghz signal is way better than the fios actiontec.
I play wow and i have an xbox and bunch of other wireless things connecting
to my internet but right now i got an 6 yr old linksys router that has to
be restarted every 6-8 hours is it worth it??
will this work with my SOny Bravia HX800 46inch 3d tv it has a Ethernet
port USB port and wireless Adaptor attach to it is there a way to use a web
browser on a tv without a pc or ps3
@MrHJPlayer ha its a pain in the ass setting up wit the xbox 360 well i hav
a mac n dat can giv out wifi so i use dat n im guesssing the airport in the
mac n this arent so different
@HunterzCentral this product is very worth it dude, i also play wow and my

now get this one.

Setting up a NAS on Apple Airport Extreme
Hey guys Shuff here and I'm bringing you a tutorial on how to set up a NAS (Network Attached Storage) on an Apple Extreme Base Station. Any questions tweet ...
Can you access this NAS hard drive from outside your local network..??
Example if you are 2 states away and want to show a family member or
friend a picture you have stored on your HD, can you access it from where
you are at..??
actualy, i can see it on my finder but when i try to connect to it its telling me to verify the ip adress or that it might be unavaliable right now. do i need to have a computer home to make this work ?
would i need to do anything special on my 2t airport time capsul prior to accessing out of my local network.. cause i cant see it on my finder windowsorry im kinda new at all this.
