Many also highlight the strong signal strength and relatively easy setup process, resulting in great coverage. However, some customers find the price to be a bit high. A few also mention that the size could be smaller and that more Ethernet ports would be beneficial.

    The extreme is a great router. No complaints about speed or down time. The only difficulty is that this, like some other apple products, doesn't play well with others. For instance, I was hooking up a wifi security camera to it. It's not impossible to do but it required a call to a help desk and some obscure settings on the extreme to get it to work. Not the end of the world, but a bit of a pain when you're used to plug and play.

    I have slowly switched to all MAC products at home and was holding out with my last router when it went bad. I bought the Airport extreme and have been happy ever since. I don't even need to use an extender to reach my garage from the basement of a 3100 soft home.

    I bought this to replace the peace of junk Comcast wireless router they use, I use it with a Motorola - SURFboard DOCSIS 3.0 High-Speed Cable Modem. and have no issues with my wireless network anymore. I use a MacBook Pro and it makes it so easy to set up and use.

    With Nest, Lifx and all the other gadgets we needed more coverage and faster speeds. Took some tweaking to get it setup with ISP equipment. Make sure you disable ISP modem's wifi and use proper bridge mode to get the full benefit it can provide.

    Until we got the Apple Airport extreme, we were not able to get any functions are smart TV downstairs since our office was set upstairs. Now we enjoy all kinds of streaming and downloading of movies.

    Apple just makes everything so easy. The specs on many new deceives are better but apple just works and I set up my system in minutes. I'm sad apple has let the AirPort Extreme stagnate (read the articles) but this still works great.

    This is one of the easiest WiFi extenders I have ever set-up. I already had one on one side of my house but needed another to fill the gap in between. It works great and was a snap to setup and pair to my existing Airport

    Once out of the box it was up and running in 2 minutes. Plugged in the cords and the Setup Wizard walked me thru the setup in seconds. Now my Ipad and iPhone get very fast connections. Couldn't be happier.

    I upgraded to this from my 5th gen. It takes up less space and is faster. Apple makes great routers much better than the routers that only allow 4-5 devices on at a time. Never have to worry about devices getting kicked off.

    This is the best way to plug your Time Warner cable system into this device and you can have access for all your devices with high quality wi-fi all over the house. I was so impressed how easy it was to install and get to work. I am now an Apple believer.

    I had the express version of this router for three years and it finally reached the end of its life. This one has completely exceeded my expectations. It's range is well over 500 feet and reaches every corner of my property not just my house.

    AirPort Extreme Router - OUTSTANDING

    I have been having trouble getting wireless coverage throughout the house which is 3 stories, including a basement. I had resorted to using WiFi repeaters which weren't always the easiest thing to sync and keep on line. Once I installed the AirPort Extreme router, I have full house coverage WITHOUT using repeaters. Even with the router at one end of the house and me with my iPad at the other, I experience near full speed downloads and uploads from my TIme-Warner internet connection - 15+ Mb/ sec down and 1 Mb/sec up.... exactly what I'm paying for. I've found NO areas within the house that this AirPort Extreme router fails to provide coverage. I am extremely pleased with this product!
