Overview

The perfect wireless solution for home, school and small business.

Networking icon

Easy wireless networking.

Connect your DSL or cable modem to the AirPort Extreme Base Station, then quickly set it up with the easy-to-use AirPort Utility, which is included for both Mac OS X and Windows. In minutes, you and up to 50 others can use your Mac computers or PCs to surf the web, stream video, share photos and more — without wires.1

Dual Band icon

UPDATED
Simultaneous dual-band Wi-Fi.

For maximum range and compatibility, AirPort Extreme works simultaneously on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, allowing all the devices on the network to use the most efficient band automatically. It uses the latest 802.11n wireless technology, so you can enjoy up to five times the Wi-Fi performance and up to twice the range of 802.11g wireless networks.2 And improvements in antenna design give you up to 50 per cent better performance and up to 25 per cent better range than with the previous-generation AirPort Extreme Base Station.3

Guest Networking icon

Guest networking.

Set up a separate Wi-Fi network with a separate password for your visitors. Simply enable the guest networking feature, and your guests can use the Internet but can’t access other parts of your private network, such as your computers, printers and attached hard drives.

Printer icon

Print without wires.

Have several computers in your home or office but only one printer? No problem. Just connect a compatible printer to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme Base Station, and the printer instantly becomes available to all the computers (Mac and PC) on your wireless or wired network. (See system requirements.)

Drive Sharing icon

Share your hard drive.

You can share an external USB hard drive over your wireless and wired networks by simply connecting it to the USB port on your AirPort Extreme Base Station. Called AirPort Disk, this feature is perfect for sharing files and more. If you’re a MobileMe member using a Mac with Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard, you can even access the files on the drive over the Internet.4

Security icon

Strong security and access controls.

Rest easy — AirPort Extreme takes strong measures to prevent unauthorised intrusion into your wireless network. It offers a built-in firewall and supports industry-standard encryption technologies including WPA/WPA2 and 128-bit WEP. Yet it’s still easy for authorised users to connect to the base station, thanks to its simple set-up utility and powerful access controls.

Works with iPhone, Apple TV and more icon

Works with iPhone, Apple TV and more.

AirPort Extreme works with Mac computers, PCs, iPhone, iPod touch, Apple TV and virtually all 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi wireless devices — all at the same time.

    Great!
    • Written by JB from Chapel Hill
    • 10 22, 09

    Just works since the day I took it out of the box. No reboots, no slow service. The device is transparent - exactly what you want from a wireless netwroking device. Delivers great reception throughout the house. I keep this in a enclosed bookshelf, on top of my DVR (not the best location), and it just plugs away. No overheating, no worries. Highly recommended. …More

    Works well for me...
    • Written by RG from Horsham
    • 03 16, 10

    Replaced venerable 6 year old Netgear DG834G with AEBS plus Draytek DSL modem. Netgear range has dropped off somewhat plus I live in an urban area where wireless networks abound. Only issue is a problem with Mac keychain when switching from guest to main network - I need to re-enter WPA password as keychain entry gets deleted somehow. I use VPN heavily and not a hint of a problem with dropped connection over VPN. …More

    Good upgrade - still sorting out the disk connections
    • Written by JS from Southbury
    • 03 16, 10

    I had been looking at solutions to extend my home wireless network, and finally decided on the AEBS w/Airport Express combo. I chose this over MoCA and Powerline solutions. As a kicker, I also have Vonage running on a 2005-era Linksys VoIP router. Setup was easy after updating the AirPort Utility. I configured the AEBS after connecting it to my cable modem, plugged the Vonage router in, and then worked on the AirPort Express. After 30 minutes, I had better wireless coverage in my home, a guest network, and about 40% faster throughput. I am still working on getting the disk connection to work properly. …More

  • Does Airport Extreme provide a greater range than Airport Express?
    • Asked by PS from Guildford
    • 10 2, 09
    Best Answer

    Technically no, but for certain customers, their environments may make it seem so. Wireless interference is one of the main causes for certain customers having a bad experience with the Airport products. Take note of how many other wireless networks are around and what devices are in the same area that utilize similar wireless technology. The Airport devices use same wireless technology and consist of the same hardware. With the Airport Extreme, you get the Dual-band feature and the extra ethernet ports.

    Hope this helps.     …More

  • Let me get this straight: I can plug my ethernet cable into Airport Extreme and it converts my current internet service to wireless? Or am I way off?
    • Asked by CD from Mascotte
    • 10 9, 09
    Best Answer

    Actually you are spot on. That is the whole purpose really of AirPort. As you say, plug in your ethernet cable and the AirPort Extreme Base Station, set it up and it becomes your wireless access point for your home, office or wherever you will be using it. It will allow any computer, Mac or PC to wirelessly connect to the internet provided, of course that you have an ISP (Internet Service Provider) and it also has dual Band Wi-Fi so any Wi-Fi device will also use it to connect like an iPod Touch or iPhone.

    You can also plug a USB printer into it so that any computer on your network can print wirelessly as well. You can even plug in a USB hard Drive into the base station for use as a network drive which can also be accessed over the web if you are away. If you own a PS3 or XBOX the base station will also allow you to connect those devices wirelessly to your network.     …More
