Most HelpfulMy linksys WRT54GX started flaking out on me; the wireless connection started to drop enough for me to notice. At first I thought that maybe the card in my PC was to blame but after all PCs on our little network started doing it, I decided to replace the router. I personally can't stand it when equipment...

Most HelpfulBeing Really Fast Compensates for other Big Flaws
I recently switched from PC to Mac and bought a Macbook Pro. While I was at the Apple store spending way too much money, I decided that I'd drop another $179 to purchase their new Airport Extreme Router. The thought of surfing 5x faster was really appealing, especially since I have had ongoing problems with my home Linksys router.
Once I got the router set up, it swiftly delivered on its promise of fast speeds. The key is the 802.11N standard which is more efficient than the previous B and G. Using a hi-speed cable connection from Comcast, I...
review »I used to have a Linksys wireless router on my PC, and I had to reset it all the time. It was complicated to set up, and hardly ever worked properly.
I finally became fed up and bought the Apple Airport Extreme. I am well aware of Apple's reputation for excellence, so there was really no question about what I was going to buy. And to seal the deal, it's PC compatible and so user friendly, it only took about 10 minutes to set up. The only problem I have now is with my cable/internet company!
Sure, Apple products are more expensive, but they're more reliable, durable and will last long after their...
review »Airport Extreme router was easy to set up on my macBook Pro using the airport utility already on my laptop with OS 10.5.4 2.5 ghZ intel core 2 due, 2GB 667Mhz DDR2 sdram.
My only problem with the product is the weak signal. I cannot get a signal in the room directly under the unit (wood floors) and I cannot get a signal on the front porch - a distance of about 25 ft away. I get a strong signal at the door but once I go outside - nothing, even with the door wide open.
I am currently looking for some way to extend the range as my desk in in that room under the router and it is not a good thing...
I purchased the Apple Extreme Base Station because of the problems I was having with my Linksys g wireless router. I would lose connection more than twice a day, was limited to the distance we could be from the router and had on many occasions called the local ISP to see what might be wrong. This router was located in the room where the computers were set up. Since replacing the Linksys
router and purchasing the Apple Base Station Extreme we do not lose the signal, can be over 100 ft from the router and not lose the signal. Download speeds have been fantastic ad I found it easy to set up, and...
I have been using an Airport Express for a while, and I got the Airport Extreme for my mom - who uses a PC.
I set it up for her last Christmas while we were visiting, and she hasn't had any problems with it since.
The only drawback that we have found is that she can't run her stereo from it (like the express).
It works great for long ranges too - she often sits outside in her yard to surf the net, and there isn't any problem.
It works equally well for Mac & PC computers. She currently has a desktop plugged into it, and runs her laptop - and mine whenever I visit.
Just purchased the Airport Extreme. We recently moved to a new city and wanted to have both our computers, one Mac and one PC, running on a wireless system. Previously I was using a AT&T USB plug in. Got tired of paying over $70 a month for that. We signed up for Comcast to be our server. Plugged airport into our modem. Hooked it up and with in minutes both Mac and PC were running wireless. The next test was going to be the wireless printing. I being the mac user had no problems and can print from anywhere in the townhouse. My partner, on the other hand a PC user didn't have the same fortune. Not...
review »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...
review »Apple airport extreme. once it looses power then you are screwed. You have to pay them fifty dollars for tech support which is completely unreasonable. I am so sorry I bought it!
