    Very simple to use, easy one time set up. Once it's connected and going your Mac backs up automatically with TimeMachine. Can also be used as external storage, and has great wifi range!

    Very simple to use. It practically installs itself. All of my Wi-Fi devices now run super fast. I have eight different Wi-Fi devices in my home and every one of them found this router with no problem.

    I brought it home, took it out the box and set it up. Was able to set up separate bands so my son's Xbox and Playstation are on their own bands. Backs up all my photos, music, and videos easy. I love it!

    I upgraded an older model of an airport base station because of the time capsule feature. I plugged it in and system recognized it, I was able to copy my old settings to the new unit and I selected this for wireless backup on my Mac mini . Apple just makes reliable quality products and this is consistent through their product line. I think this is a good value for the reliability and quality even though it cost more than other solutions.

    I just bought this a little over a month ago primarily for the purpose of backing up with time machine. More than a year back, I got a WD mybook live which was supposed be a wireless alternative and was advertised to work with time machine, but it caused me nothing but problems and would not back up without errors. Nothing beats the real mac product intended for their program. No problems whatsoever. The best thing about this is that it increases your current wifi signal as if it were connected through ethernet. I have yet to use it with AC technology because for now, there are hardly any inexpensive adapters. But, when AC becomes the norm in a few years, at least i'm already prepared. Bravo!

    Very easy to install and connect to my new Mac. The computer backs up automatically, but I was informed that my iPhone and iPad would as well. Those two do not. I found that you must back those up to the computer and therefore are backed up to the time capsule. Other than that it works great.

    Really easy to setup, other than needing a network cable adaptor for our MacBook Pro to setup. Really like the ability to backup over wifi and have a great router all in one.

    Not a techie person, so after fiddly with it, finally got it connected and up in running. The network seems to be faster and now I do have the peace of mind that my photos are backed up wirelessly. That's a good thing. Purchased with the idea of accessing the data, but not sure how to access the data on the capsule. The purchase was good, no regrets. I was given a credit towards the purchase so that was a benefit to the purchase. Thanks BestBuy, love your store.

    Hard to assess these devices as sometimes it's the internet speed coming in that effects you more. However, very easy to set up and looking forward to using the back up on it too.

    Was looking for extra storage in my MacBook pro retina, reviewed several storage devices, this one was perfect since it's a router and wireless storage I can use it with my iPhone, iPad and the rest of my i devices, it's also compatible with PC, the range on the wifi is great! No need for a router just plug in to modem and go, I'm sure il enjoy it for a long time just like the rest of my apple products. The staff that helped me at best buy was very friendly and courteous Could have bought it elsewhere but I like the people at best buy.
