This product is outdated at this point, and the wireless router/cable modem combination I get from Time Warner Cable is much more capable than this thing is. However, this thing is extremely useful for one purpose: wireless music streaming from an Apple device. iPhones and iPod touch devices, as well as Mac computers, or iTunes on a Windows PC can all stream audio to Apple AirPlay- and AirTunes-certified devices. This is the device that introduced AirTunes (which became AirPlay when it was expanded to the Apple TV and video support was added), and it remains very useful as a digital audio streaming target. You can buy a Raspberry Pi and SD card and set them up to do the same thing, but it's going to take a lot of effort and time to initially set up (and you better be familiar with Linux or willing to learn!), or you can buy an outdated AirPort Express for a fraction of the price, set it up, and play music through it. Here's the catch: you need extra software to initially set it up (Apple AirPort Utility), and if you're doing so on a Mac you'll actually need to download a modified, *older* version of AirPort Utility, as the latest versions completely remove support for these old guys. In fact, it may be easier to set up on a Windows PC. That's why I'm knocking two stars off, because Apple when decided to stop supporting these guys they decided to also prevent the older software from running normally, preventing them from being reconfigured on a Mac. But once it's set up you'll be so glad you did. Make any speakers wireless!Vollständige Rezension lesen

These old styles Airport Express units are at a great cost point right now. However, Apple has decided to exclude them from their continuing software support. If you have a mac newer than 2013, you'll actually have to get a PC and download the older version of Airport Utility to get the unit set up. The good news is that once you do so, the unit works great. Best of luck!

It's outdated and no longer supported, but it's the best bang for your buck if you don't want to update any of your other hardware in your house. The best thing to use this for are speakers, streaming airtunes, printer that isn't wireless, AND you can create another network off of your current router/modem (but you can't extend it if you're using a non-apple router/modem). If your Mac is running El Capitan, and that's the ONLY system you have in your house, you are pretty much screwed because you won't be able to install the older Airport Utility 5.6.1 at all. If you have a PC at home, good news is that you can download and install the Airport Utility designed for Windows 7. I had a Windows 8 and it installed with no problems. After setting it up on Windows, you will be able to use it normally on your Mac.Vollständige Rezension lesen

You need the older Airport Utility 5.6.1 not available with Yosemite or El Capitan but the installer can be found on a search. Search for the downloadable .dmg for easy installation. I love this because there are no cords and works great as an extender.

I bought this thinking I’d be able to set it up like any other AirPort Express only to find out after many failed attempts that Apple dropped support for this router in MacOS and iOS. So now I’ve got a shiny white paperweight. Bummer.
