    It is a router not a modem!! Do not get as a stand alone modem. It is only a router to be added to a modem

    I'm using it to be able to play directly from the Spotify app to my Sonos speaker system. There are occasional dropouts but not enough to bother me and I'm not sure why they happen.

    I was a little concerned using an Apple product for my home network since I have mostly PCs. I think setup would have been much harder without an Apple product. But once it was going, getting the three laptops and my PS3 to communicate with it was easy and painless. Love it! It is fast and has a very robust signal.

    This was just as advertised. It was easy to install and is working great after a month or so of use. I did not install it as I think most people do. I did not connect it to my internet network I just wanted it to allow me to stream music to my Niles box from Apple devices and it is doing a great job!!

    Being used to extend a network. Works as intended. It would have been nice if it were smaller like previous iterations. And had a bigger indicator light... like previous iterations.

    As is typical of Apple products, standard installs e.g. using this as the main wireless access point for connection to an internet modem is very easy. However I needed this to extend a network and it did not work well. My wifi network is all Apple, with an Airport Extreme as the main wireless access point and router (and several other Expresses providing links to my Hi Fi and sound systems). I needed this Airport Express to extend the network to other parts of the house so that I could roam with a strong signal with my MBPro, iPad and iPhone. Basically the install process using the Airport Utility kept trying to make it the primary access point and would not configure it to extend the network saying that it could not find the network (even though the software installed in the Extreme was the same as the one in Express, all other wifi devices were using the network and they were next to each other!!). I eventually got it to work, but only because I understand how these things work and not because Apple's documentation was any help. I suspect that this will work well for anyone trying to setup a modest primary wifi network, but do not expect it to be any easier to use than all the other routers/access points out there. Overall a disappointing experience but probably OK for simple systems.
