Only took me 10 minutes to set up, including putting passwords for both main and guest networks. Replaced another router that we hated and couldn't figure out.

Before I bought this Airport express base station, I could not access my wi-fi from my back porch. Now I can get my wi-fi outside the house.

The is a great product, very easy to set up. However, it works the same as other routers in its class. Would not recommend spending $100 on this router unless you want to have an easy installation.

I needed a quick way to extend an existing Apple Extreme network due to switching to a new ISP. I didn't want to run wires through the house so decided to get the Express to do this wirelessly. Plus, I have multiple users in the house, some on older WiFi protocols and I wanted to eliminate the need for multiple WiFi networks. The Express worked as advertised. Plugged into cable modem, used existing Apple Airport Setup software and connected the WiFi spots in minutes. Everything worked beautifully. Everyone was able to log in immediately. Plus, the additional Airplay feature has been a bonus.

Replaced my linksys router with this at the suggestion of Best Buy employee. Use at home for connecting two personal wireless laptops to the internet and each other and to wi-fi printers. The linksys came with an excellent on-line step-by-step guide for how-to on connecting the computers, the printers, and setting up guest connections. This one was a struggle every step of the way and finally required a call to Apple helpdesk to complete connections. If we have a problem in the future or need to reset, we'll be in the same boat. I am so surprised that Apple would be so customer unfriendly. That said, have not had problems since the helpdesk transaction.

2nd unit used to extend WiFi range. I couldn't follow the included instructions to make it work and had to call the Geek Squad. It took them a while as well.

I have several of these throughout the house. Some extend my network and some supply audio wirelessly. I like that they are simple to setup with an iPad.

My G band 2.4 router was dropping signal and strength. I researched several options, I do have an iPhone and iPad, great Apple products so I thought I would try this and a month later, I have no complaints. It was an easy setup, good guest access and use.

Like all Apple products this router just works. Easy to setup, easy to use. Works great with both my Apple gear and non-Apple gear alike.
