    I really appreciate just how simple and easy it is to set up a wireless network in minutes ... piece of cake with an iMac and iPad. I've even very impressed with its range.

    This is a great wireless extender, the only downside to it, is that if your base station (Airport Extreme) gets disconnected, or if you need to unplug it and move it to a new location, sometimes it can be a pain to get it reconnected, but that is hit and miss. Great extender, Apple does a nice job and the Airport Utility app for iPhone/iPad/Mac is fantastic! Super easy to setup!

    I thought I could use this to in effect convert a basic printer in to an Airprint printer. It cannot do this. After I figured that out, I thought that I could still use it to extend my wifi. Came to find out that that function works only with specific Apple wifi routers. Poorly marketed item. I returned it. Bought Netgear Orbi and I am satisfied with that for distributed wifi. As far as the Airprint: such a device costs too much to be worth it. Next time I buy a printer I'll be sure to get that functionality.

    It seems a lot of people don't realize the caliber of router you're getting here for $99 is higher than what you'd pay ~$150 for from other brands. This is a great router, when range is not the number 1 priority--by that i mean it's the right solution for an apartment or small home, not a mansion. The usb port for the printer has worked seamlessly on both PC and Mac for me at home, and has not presented any issues with delay in streaming to the printer, etc. For me, this router has supported an iPhone, iPad, AppleTV, MacBook Pro, 2 Belkin WeMo switches, and a wireless printer without a hitch (it is said to support up to 50 devices simultaneously--obviously you need the WAN bandwidth to support that too, though, keep in mind). I purchased this to replace [supplement] the default router with built in WiFi supplied to me by my cable/internet provider, and it has been quite a boost in performance.

    After our 2Wire modem/router combo bit the dust, we could not connect all our devices to the new A,T&T modem we bought. The Apple Airport Express has helped us solve that problem. We have not had any issues with the wifi dropping devices since installing it.

    We were using an older router before we bought this one, and our wireless internet speed quadrupled. We are in a 1600 square foot house, and get full speed in every area of our home. This thing is great! Would love if it came in black though, to match the decor.

    This is a very good product. You can extend your existing wireless coverage to other areas of your home, also providing 'wireless' connectivity' to those devices that don't have wireless. You can basically plug in a network cable from the airport express to your device and boom you have connectivity.. Also airplay is very very nice. If you have speakers in another room, you can plug the speakers to your airport express and play itunes music to the other room via Airplay,

    It took about 2 minutes to set this up and started printing right away. I have an older HP laser (without wifi) that I wanted to move into a closet. With the Airport Express I can now print wirelessly from anywhere in the house. Great solution.
