Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the AirPort Extreme Base Station's ease of use, range, and performance. 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.

    We have a lot of Apple devices and we're having trouble getting on line. The Geek Squad manager suggested this item and it worked out wonderfully! The cost was reasonable and installation was as simple as promised.

    I love that this router works with 2.4gh and 5ghz at the same time. What is great is that I get the faster wireless speed on my laptop, ipad, iphone, macbook pro, while also not having to switch to get the ps4, wii u, and wireless printer to work. I love that it just works.

    I did online research and checked reviews on all the various extenders available before heading into Best Buy. I have a 2,800 sq ft single story house on a 10,000 sq ft lot and needed wifi to extend to the pool controller. My linksys plug-in extender just didn't cut it. I spoke with one of the blue shirt sales guys and explained my situation. He recommended the Airport for a few bucks more, I went for it and am happy I did, it was easy to startup and works like a charm. I haven't had to reboot it at all and I get a great signal and bandwidth both inside and outside. It's worth the investment.

    It's Apple, what more can you say! Tried the Netgear products (3 different ones) & none of them worked. This Apple Base Station worked great...we were able to have 3+ users on wifi, another gaming & another on Netflix and no problems with loading or wait times. Perfect item!

    The router is easy to use and has good range. The setup was also easy because it gave you the option to transfer your settings from a previous apple router.

    This router replaced the last generation AirPort Extreme and it is 10 times the router than the one it replaced. Speed and range are great, even through walls

    I already owned the previous version and transferring all the settings was super easy, the wifi in the house is incredibly fast and I have no problem at all streaming 4K from Netflix, Amazon and YouTube...no buffering and I get well over the speeds advertised by cox.

    Being an Apple devotee I chose this over other brands after the sales rep recommended it for ease of use and range. I easily connected it to all my devices; I am not a tech wizard. I'm only disappointed that in one room in my house I still get dropped from the internet, however it has way better range than my previous modem.

    After several other unnamed brands and models, (that never worked well) I purchased this router. After easy setup, our home network is up and running at full speed and has not had any problems. If you are tired of problems from other brands, don't wait; just go get one.

    We bought this router since our old one wasn't working anymore. This one is great because it doesn't take up much space and was very easy to connect. It has a good signal and better range than the one we used before and reaches downstairs in the family room.

    Initially this was purchased to speed up the WiFi connection speed running through my apartment. It has DEFINITELY done that. The setup process was kind of wacky and clunky, but once you get beyond that you're home free. It's been connected for about a month now, and the speeds I'm getting are amazing. No more sitting and waiting for a page to load or something to download hours later. The range on it is pretty decent for reaching my PS3 in the living room for streaming purposes, but at some point I probably will purchase another for safety's sake after I buy a house and the space increases.

    Replaced an older version of an apple airport extreme that was working ok. thought the new version with 6 antennas would help with extending the signal throughout the home. Was also using an apple extender with the base unit. Turned out the new unit worked better without the extender at long as I used the 5 ghz setting. word of caution: installing a new unit will create a new network and none of your devices will work within the network unless you configure them to the new network. That includes all your phones, iPads, Macs, Mac books and yes, all your Smart TVs.

    As an Apple User and Fan, I had to invest in this Apple Router. It's the best investment for my home computer and other electronics. Truly Five Star and worth the investment to have the very best in my home!

    I had an older version that was not supporting the newer electronics so I picked up one of these and all of the problems are gone. No more slow downloads or problems with connections. I have about 10+ items all connected at the sometime and do not have any problems.

    This product is easy to set up, even for the most novice users. Good range and maintains high speeds. Missing USB 3.0 and/or lightning ports. Overall great for easy Wifi set up at a hurt your pocket price. You buy one of these for $200 or buy 3 routers at $60 each in the next two years... I like to buy it right the first time.

    This replaced an old airport express that had gone bad. The old one stayed so hottest I bet it slowly burned itself up. This has an internal fan and stays cool. I like that it's dual band and that it resolved my network issues. The numerous plug ins are great too!
