    Convenient backup and easy setup ... ridiculous can’t automatically backup phone directly thru WiFi but not hard to backup phone on iTunes then it does autobackup computer on WiFi but would be nice to be able to backup phone and computer automatically with no fuss

    this item has worked really well for storage and backup. I like that I can access my computer through my phone and ipad. I think it was a bit expensive but I purchased it when it was on sale.

    This has Time capsule disk is embedded in the AirPort Extreme with WIFI 802.11AC and guest network capabilities. It sets up easy and covers my whole house. If you are an all PC household, I would not recommend this product. It works great with Apple products and it works well with other brand WIFI devices including PCs but the initial setup has to be done on an Apple product. The embedded disk can be used as network disk and a Time capsule backup disk. I would recommend using a wired Ethernet connection to the AirPort Extreme for the first Time capsule backup because using just the WIFI is very slow. My MAC Book Pro is a 2009 vintage with WIFI 802.11N capability.

    Noticeable improvement in browser speed, and the automatic backup is perfect for making a copy of my entire hard drive. Don't have to worry about losing all of my files

    Replaced an older model Extreme which performed amazingly well. This new model goes to the next level with better Wifi Coverage and maintains much higher transfer speeds. Love it.

    Safely backs up and stores my iMac and Macbook computers wirelessly and the router is plenty strong in our 1300 square foot house. We even keep it behind the Mac next to a wall.

    This is the best router I have ever owned. With this router you can control everything from your phone with the Apple AirPort Utility App. You are able to turn on and off guest access as well. Total user control!

    I wasn't too sure on how this would work out for me. However, it was so easy to set up and it really does make connecting to the internet a lot faster and it backs up automatically, that it makes life so much simpler.

    Our poor router survived the packing out of the house, the removal of the dry wall, but not when my husband was scrubbing the floors. It was dropped and gone forever. Who can survive without the Internet. It was off to Best Buy to the rescue. Great product, fast and good coverage.

    We needed to share files between Apple devices and a PC. The only issue so far happens when switching profiles on a MacBook. When changing users, the connection to the time capsule drops off. The shares files disappear for a bit. It must be a security/login delay or latency. Positives: looks cool, doesn't take up much space, doesn't trap dust. Negatives: price, user switching problem, can't upgrade storage size

    Have tried other external storage devices before, but they have not worked as well or as seemlessly as this product. Is a bit pricey, but well worth it. Also provides a stronger wifi signal which is a plus.
