    The network I have set up at home is all Apple. Both my wife and I have Macs and our wi-fi is from an Airport Time Capsule. I tried expanding the signal with hardware from another brand and it was very weak. With the Airport Express there is a very noticeable difference in how well my wi-fi signal has been amplified.

    I have had them all. ASUS. NetGear. Linksys. Those all fail within a year or two if you're lucky. Super glitchy. I picked up an Apple tower-type about 5 years ago. Very good. Still going strong. I hated to do it. I hate Apple as a company. I hate Macs and iPads (I have tried them). But they know how to make a solid WiFi AP. This one is no different. Works great.

    Apple quality at its best. The airport express is sleek, easy to set up, works flawlessly with several devices including apple screen mirroring 1080p video to my Apple TV. Did I mention it looks awesome? Sometimes I forget its a router. Very simple modern design. Love it.

    I needed somehow increase the signal in my home. Nowadays there is a lot of options: outlets, set of 5, 3 (modem with extenders). Having an airport installed at home, decided to give a try and no regrets. So far everything’s work simultaneously, have this for over a month.

    I needed an internet signal booster for my home. I received a recommendation from a Best Buy salesperson for an 'Apple - AirPort Express Base Station - White', so I bought it. I am not particularly knowledgeable as to connecting computer accessories, but I found this item easy to install. I have also found it to be effective in its performance.

    I purchased this to use as an "extender" for my current wi-fi network. It was very easy to set up and install using Airport Utility. I have a 2tb Time Capsule and just placed the Airport Express in the location I needed more wi-fi coverage and plugged it into a power outlet. Then opened Airport Utility, and the programmed basically did the rest. Works Awesome !

    I use Air Play units on each of my amps to stream music from iTunes throughout my hose, can play single or multiple units. They are very trouble free after the initial setup. If everything is working stay away from version upgrades they always mess up something that was working perfectly.

    Best Routers, Not just another Apple Fanboy

    I bought this to extend my Airport Extreme. I plugged it in, selected the network I wanted to extend and it was ready to go. Apple Airport base stations are the most simple and reliable routers I have ever used. Before I used airport I had several Netgear routers. They were great too, but every other day I had to unplug them to reset them because I was told they would time out (the Netgear routers). I have never had to unplug the Apple Airport routers ever. I have had the dual band simultaneous Airport Extreme for about three years and have never had any problems. So when it came time to extend my network, I did not have any hesitation choosing the Airport Express. They are great and if you need a wireless router that is reliable and you don't want to reset every other day, go with the Apple Airport. I'm not just another fanboy, buy it and you'll love it.

    The Best Buy employee recommended this product when I asked about boosting our wi-fi coverage in our home. My husband's office is in our basement and he had limited access. The airport express was very easy to set up and our internet speeds are greatly increased all over our home.

    Very sweet little box. Like the size of a hockey puck but with a big ol brain. Super great range for such a little package and easy to setup, even with computers other than apple. Hooked it right to my network and worked within two minutes.
