Limited use to this point, but no complaints regarding this unit. Easy to setup and access with other Apple products. Hard to tell if this has improved WI-FI capability at this point, imagine it will be more obvious once the kids arrive and more people are accessing it simultaneously.

Works great. No drops. All the devices in our household synced up easily and we noticed an increase in upload and download speeds. Covers the latest wifi standards and broadcast them through multiple antennas (I think 9). Setup was super easy. Backups are solid and was super easy to setup.

Just like every Apple product, the capsule is amazing. From their easy open packaging to the use and set up. Simple. Easy. Reliable. The WiFi strength signal is perfect. The two sizes of the external hard drive are decent sized and worth it. Two items in one is worth the money.

This router is by far the best I have used. No need to reset. The ability to back-up multiple computers to it is and added bonus. I have had no problems interfacing with it at all. However all my devices are Apple products I have not tested this product with any other technology.

If you use apple computer products, this unit works very well for time machine backup. As a router, it has great range and speed for apple and non-apple products. Setup is very easy with iPhone or iPad, or using Airport Utility software, available for both mac and windows.

I bought this time capsule after moving into a new apartment, in which I needed my own wifi and more storage from my already full external hard drive. This time capsule provides for both of those needs, and I have been pleased with it thus far. Very easy to set up quickly as well.

One day after purchasing this Time Capsule I toasted my MacBook Pro - stupid mistake and I should have known better.... Anyway, I booted up in Recovery mode and it found the Time Capsule on the WiFi network where my time machine backup was, less than an hour later my MBP was up and running like nothing had happend!
This device gives you
--WiFi AC: I connect at about 850 Mbits
--2 TB network storage
--Time Machine functionality
--Remote access to any files you have stored on the TimeCapsule
What you don't get:
--Bells and whistles you may need if you need custom configuration for hosting game servers or the like.
Typical Apple Device - Not many bells and whistles but the thing works perfectly (and simply) for the basic services most people need.

easy to set up and we have Macs so no issues recognizing the network after setup, but it will work great with PC's too because we have a couple of those too. The 2 TB hard drive is great for automatic backups over the network. The range is good, better than the previous version and we have a long house with the router at one end with multiple rooms in between. I still get good throughput even with my daughter using Netflix and my son using Netflix and I am the most distance away from the router. We have DSL as the internet connection. It's easy to set up a guest account as well, and friends can get online without asking your password.

Easy set up and amazing range. The unit also backs up my computer continually. I went from a Netgear unit to this after we started to experience buffering when watching Netflix or Amazon TV. Awesome unit....

WiFi Hub/Storage - Great Performance, Great Value

I was a little hesitant to replace my router (Linksys 802.1g) and external backup/storage (Seagate Free Agent - GoFlex) with an all-in-one but, Apple doesn't disappoint. The Airport Time Capsule gave me better performance (concurrent PS3 gaming, iTunes Movie and music streaming and internet access) with amazingly simple back-ground backup with more disk space. It's increased my wifi range and bandwidth and satisfied an increasing demand for speed to cover a home office and 3 kids that are constantly streaming, gaming, etc. (4 iPhones, 1 Mac, 1 PS3, 2 web-based TVs and one Windows PC - guess which one is the work PC?)

I have been slowly converting all of my computers and devices to apple and this was my last step in the process. The airport time capsule was easy to set up and works great in my home. The wifi is secure and I have not had any issues with this product.

The product has performed flawlessly. The router is fast and reliable. I have had no hiccups in using it. The back-up function finally allows me to back-up my computer without feeling any slow down in my regular computer usage. I am very satisfied.

Was looking for a router that would reach remote areas in the home, I admit I love Apple and also wanted it to read my iPad, iPhone and Mac laptop. I was also looking for a way to store and save my data. This does it all. and it was a snap to install.

I had an external hard drive used for backing up my laptop which failed. Luckily I was able to retrieve my data but I needed something dependable. I also had a very old wireless router which was not meant for the increasing load I had put on it by adding more devices. The Time Capsule satisfies both of those needs in one product. It works seamlessly with all my Apple devices and backs up my data automatically in the background, using Time Machine. I no longer get drop outs on streaming videos and I can use the full speed of my cable modem. The Time Capsule firmware can be updated online so it will remain up to date with future wireless protocols. In fact Apple will notify me when my firmware needs to be updated. Kind of idiot proof, which is a very good thing for me. All in all a well thought out and well designed product.

This was an extremely easy WIFI device to set up and it has eliminated dead spots in my home that I had with a previous WIFI device. It also works seamlessly with my iMac and backups through Time Machine are a snap. Excellent product!

Love this. Easy set up. Great range, no longer have to use a range extender like I did before. Has not needed to be rebooted like I had to do with TWC's. Saves money not having to rent one. Love that I can back up all my iMacs with it too.
