    Not the intuitive Apple product I was expecting. Still trying to install it properly so it does not interfere with my AT&T modem.

    The in-store expert diagnosed a problem I was having with "smart" devices by asking how old my router was and suggested several alternatives. I went with the Airport TImecapsule due to its back-up time machine link to my Mac devices. A good choice and my smart devices are smart again.

    Better coverage than the Cisco Router I replaced

    I replaced my Cisco router with the Time Capsule. I get a much wider coverage than I did with my Cisco Router. The setup was extremely easy especially the guest network. The instructions for adding and accessing an attached hard drive could be better but overall I really like it.

    As with many apple products, its their way or nothing. This product will handle most customer solutions, but I keep my dhcp server and other network services on a different box. I want a setup that this router could not produce. I did call apple support to validate it. overall we found a workaround and its pretty good value for the cost.

    This replaced my old timecapsule that had 250 GB for backup. The backup process is much quicker now. Also the switch between the old timecapsule and this was super easy.

    Apple Ecosystem

    This router is great if you use a lot of apple products. I have a Mac mini, MacBook Air, iPad, and iPhones so for me it was the logical choice. Time machine works flawlessly to the bult in drive. File transfers are fast, and it's been running since I bought it without a reboot. The only complaint would be its range. I live in a 2 story townhome and it seems to have trouble upstairs, at least where AirPlay is concerned.

    When you crash and need to utilize your backup it is usually a bad day. With windows this is a nightmare and a half. With a MAC thankfully we have time machine, and this wonderful piece of Tech integrates a high quality router with it's backup. Love it!

    Switched from att router modem combo to this airport when I bought my imac 27 5k. I believe it gives a little weaker wifi signal than my att combo. This is based on my samsung tv upstairs in my living room. I could get wifi signal on old router combo but not now on my airport. Gonna buy the apple repeater to extend signal. Have edited new airport also to try different setting to no avail.

    Great product I use it for my everyday editing needs all of my editing clips are stored inside. I would say besides taking a bit to load up in the beginning (normal when you have so much stuff) it’s a great product worth the investment

    The range on my computer has drastically decresed! Although apple support is amazing and patient I keep getting more issues. Now it hasn't even backed up at all since our last conversation. My speed had been cut in half instead of increasing like I had hoped! I am very disjointed! If anyone hay advice please let me know.

    I use the Ethernet connection for backup, rather than wireless, since I already have a wireless network. The system does what it says it will. I get backups without having to implement a personal discipline. The device capacity is sufficient for the task assigned.
