Love Airport Extreme Wireless Router

Every day computer user, a graphics pro, a techie

Pros

Excellent range, fast, easy setup, nice design, Easy to set up, even for a beginner.

OCT

2009

We were having challenges with our home wireless network. We have a mixed Windows/Mac environment with a lot of devices. We stream a lot of music and video. Plus, multiple people due critical Internet-related work from home.

We were having bandwidth/performance issues with our old wireless system. Since we have had such good experience with other Apple products, we decided to spend the little extra $$ to get the Apple Airport Extreme router. We already had several Airport Express devices in the house, plus and iMac and a MacBook.

Long story short, the Airport Express router outperformed even our best hopes. LOVE IT!
