We like:
Slick design; good performance; useful USB port
We don't like:
No Web browser management; USB disc performance could be improved; no Gigabit Ethernet ports
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The Airport Extreme boasts impressive wireless range and fast data transfer speeds. We also loved the USB port that lets you share printers and drives among computers on your network. It lacks Gigabit Ethernet ports, though, and the set-up utility could be improved
