Extremely Awesome

22 Helpfuls 23 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great range, reliability, and speed.
Cons May lack some advanced features uber-geeks want.
Recommended it? Yes

Thus far, after about two weeks of use, this is the best wireless access point I've ever owned (I've tried 3 others over the years).

Wireless "N" is the newest generation of latest-and-greatest wifi, offering greater speeds and twice the range of the previous generation, wireless "G." I... Read full review »

The Home Server Breakthrough Hidden Behind iPhone

byPirich Feb 20, 2007
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Compact, rational shape, nice footprint, supports printers, supports shared hard disks,...
Cons Software can be complicated to untangle if you have previous airport networks running.
Recommended it? Yes

Yes, the big news the day this product came out was the iPhone. iPhone, which is yet to be seen, and is not what these people have done for a living for the past 30 years. And yet, a bread and butter device- the lowly WiFi hub, was truly and remarkably transformed that day, and unless you were... Read full review »

I called customer support and was told I would be called back by a technician (which obviously the first yahoo was not) within an hour. We waited...and got online to try to figure...

Industrial-strength wireless, not for the faint of heart

bysolind Jun 23, 2006
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Highest available radio quality, range and security.
Cons You really need to know what you're doing to set it up with security.
Recommended it? Yes

I searched high and low for a wireless access point with the range and sensitivity to reach every corner of my 175 year old home. That's a tall order, considering that it's about 3500 square feet of living space, on three stories, in a brick structure (with the occasional internal load-bearing... Read full review »
