Will this router work with a mixed PC/Apple household?

Samfirst, you need an Apple device to set the password, but once it is set - it works with other devices. second I have not been able to get the extreme and the Express to work in series, instead, I need to select a device that I'm next to in a room that I am in. this often means I have to log out and log back in when moving about the House. if anyone knows how to correct this problem, please let me know.Michael

I don't know; I hope someone else can help you with this. I only have used it with my computer and there is a router attached to the upstairs computer.

I use it in conjunction with a 1st router. So if this is what you mean, the answer is yes.

Yes. It will work.I ran this way briefly downstream from a D-Link, but once I configured by cloning the MAC address my download speed was much faster.

We have 2 MacBooks, an Apple TV and several iPhones. The Actiontec PK5000 modem works great.

Yes it will. It is my understanding that most if not all routers are backward compatible.

Hi W.B., performance will vary depending on the wireless environment in your home, interference, construction of the home, but this router should work well for you. We would also recommend taking a look at some of our routers with enhanced signal transmission given the size of your home, such as the R7000 or R8000.

All Belkin routers and software updates should work with both operating systems, If you run into any issues it's usually Apple trying to play big brother, then you can take the problem to any Apple store and they should have a work around.

As far as I know, internet is internet and whether or not it is apple or pc, it should work

It should. I use my refurbished Apple AirPort with a Mac Mini that's probably 6-7 years old, and it's fine. My Apple AirPort Extreme is the primary router for a very large house right now, with a Mac Mini, two MacBook Pros, and two iPhones. I bought my AirPort Extreme several years ago now, and it was refurbished when I bought it. Will replace with another refurbished AirPort Extreme, when I feel a need to replace it. Hope that helps.

Will this unit integrate with an older (5-6 years old) iMac G5, running OS X & allow for wireless networking in a small home ? Thank you for any help, my wife was given the iMac by a friend to help her with her teaching work. I have a Verizon fios wireless router upstairs, my wife wants this in the living room/kitchen, if that is any help ?

Yes. The Cisco router is independent of the operating system on the computer. It will work with any Windows on a PC or with any Mac, for that matter.

Here is my personal view. CISCO routers are amongst the most difficult routers to configure and especially with Apple Devices. I had 02 and I gave up and bought an Apple Airport. Not only are the Routers (E2000 and the Wireless Extender) challenging to set up, they also keep crashing which requires constant work and setting up. So do yourself a favour and choose a different router. You can look at Apple (seamless integration) or ASUS or any other robust brand. I personally will never buy CISCO again.

We have an apple computer and we just bought this router about 6 months ago. Working perfectly!!!!

This router will give you better wireless reception than any other consumer grade device. I've owned a bunch of 'em and I can't say enough good things about Apple stuff (even for PCs and Android connectivity). This router has no "web page configuration" like most -- so you'll need to use the Apple app, readily available for Windows or iPads... so you'll be fine. At one time, all of my home devices were Linux OS and Android tablets... and without a Windows or Apple device, this thing is almost impossible to configure. Like I said. You'll be fine and you'll love it.

None. The reason I purchased this router is my old router downloaded at less than 20 Mbps to my MacBook Pro. I purchased this router and a TRENDnet TEW-804-UB IEEE 802.11ac USB Wi-Fi Adapter. Now downloads to my MacBook Pro is 57Mbps.
