    Worst AP I have ever had, Woul ...Rob -- 02/04/09

    Worst AP I have ever had, Wouldn't work with Ibook g4. When the ibook is restarted the airport interface on the ibook requires reconfiguration, It locks up all the time.

    The good: Pretty (form over function)

    The bad: Locks up regularly, runs very hot. Limited port forwarding.

    How did you copy a 7GB file?, I can't get it to use a file larger than 4GB, Thought it would make a good backup device but it's fat32.

    The good: Seems to be a superior AP for us. easy to setup and configure. Very good range. Great home device if all your using is Mac. Only good thing for business I see is the guest network, but your guests may turn up being 3 doors down, and pulling torrents.

    The bad: Only seems to be a good backup(NAS) if your usinge the built in Time Capsule Mac software. Ineffective with windows devices. Not very usefull as a business device due to FAT32 file system, and poor advanced setup.
