    Love my AirPort Extreme router. They're rugged and last.

    Although this product is no longer being offered by Apple these routers are fast (discontinued in 2018). I have three hardwired Apple Extreme routers distributed throughout my house. The oldest, model A1521, is eight years old (they last). One is connected to the internet via a Netgear modem and two are bridged. I have Comcast one gig service so when I say fast these 802.11ac routers have download/upload speeds of 942 mbps/ 40 mbps connected to a Netgear CM2050V modem (rated at 1.2 Gbps). Apple makes it a snap with their Airport Utility App to connect them together. I plugged it in, the app recognized there was a new router and when I clicked on the new router, the app told me it had configured it as a bridged router on my network with the same login as the other two. It doesn't get ...

    No frill good network.

    Out of the box Apple Extreme stations work well, almost no tuning required. I use multiple of these base station to fill my house with WIFI. I now have few dead spots. Coverage is very good. Only downfall, is apple's short warranty. Had 1 unit burn out at 14 months, and no coverage from apple.

    Blown away!

    We have always had troubles with routers in the past, mainly because we always pick the cheaper ones at Walmart. After dealing with issues for months with our lynksis we finally decided to upgrade. I've never even considered an airport before thinking they might not work great with non apple products, but now that everyone in the house started using apple products I figured it would be a great time to try one out and I'm so glad I did. Before our average download speed was ruffly 14 mb but now we are averaging 110mb and with minimum hiccups with our non apple products. The only issue I had was getting my PS4 to signing in to the store, but by the time I got off work it was working fine without having to change anything. The setup was 10x easier than any other router I've ever used and I ...

    Great Discontinued Base Stations

    Excellent for Mac users and other Apple wi-fi device users. Very easy to set up and maintain a wi-fi network. The Apple MacOS component AirPort Utility makes it easy to set up an administer your network. And now the sad news:The Airport Extreme and the Airport Express are NOW DISCONTINUED! Apple has left the wi-fi equipment market. Apple will continue to support the AirPorts, I've been told by Apple Support agents. So if you want to continue your AirPort network, maybe buy an extra base station. Maybe you can get a better base station and build a stronger network with other brands' newer stuff, but you won't have the ease of using AirPort Utility.

    IT has run well since the purchase - that one oddity - that was firmware needed

    The Air Port Utility did the whole set up for me. The other day the light was orange and I thought it strange since it had been operating very well. It said it was over heating, but I went to the Air Port Utility and I noted that a file sharing buttomn was checked to file share and I didn't want that - I turned it off and it wanted to "update" so I clicked that to occur and after two minutes everything was good again and the light was green. I called my brother to check his Aip Port and his was orange. He said his Aip Port Utility wantred a firmware update and then his light went green after a few minutes. Strange. I think that was what my Aip Port Extreme needed, as well. I have had no glitches with this Air Port Extreme but that incident which - was a firmware update.
