So your Wi‑Fi signal is stronger, clearer, and faster. Then AirPort Extreme targets its signal to that device. But the beamforming antenna array is smarter - it knows where an 802.11ac device is on the network.
Most base station antennas emit an equal and constant Wi‑Fi signal in all directions. With 802.11ac technology comes the intelligent, powerful beamforming antenna array. So no matter which band your wireless devices use, they’ll automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.īeamforming puts the focus on your device. That means it transmits at both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies at the same time. What you do with all that extra speed is up to you.ĪirPort Extreme features simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi‑Fi. And if you have 802.11a/b/g/n devices, AirPort Extreme maximizes that connection as well. Which means up to three times faster Wi‑Fi.2 You also get double the channel bandwidth, with 80MHz‑wide channels providing more room for more data to flow faster than ever. Now you can reach data rates of up to 1.3 Gbps1 - triple the previous 802.11n standard. With three-stream 802.11ac technology, the AirPort Extreme Base Station takes Wi‑Fi speeds over the top. The setup assistant does all the work, so you don’t have to.
There are no complicated steps to follow and no obscure terminology to learn. But the Airport Time Capsule 2TB and 3TB sized options allows you to connect their USB port to a USB printer. The faster USB 3.0 standard would have been a more modern, better choice.

As soon as you plug in your AirPort Extreme and connect it to your DSL or cable modem, you can follow the simple instructions on your Mac or iOS device. Apple using the USB 2.0 standard for this port is a bit of a disappointment. That’s because a setup assistant is built into iOS and into AirPort Utility for OS X. With AirPort Extreme, getting your new Wi‑Fi network up and running takes less time - and less effort - than making a cup of coffee.
