Is this compatible with apple airport extreme router
1649218
Any USB wifi device works with airport extreme. Your only difficulty can be the computer system you use. If you still have an old system like Windows XP and you set up airport extreme to secure your network with a WPA2 password, it can be very difficult for any USB wifi device to work, and then keep working after you think you have it set up correctly. But all newer systems use any Netgear USB wifi device very easily - pretty much plug and play.

No, it is definitely NOT compatible with Apple products. I have a new, unopened model. Wanna buy it? It's of no use to me.

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.

I would appreciate any information out there about this very same issue! My boyfriend has a PC desktop that is not wireless and I need to find a reliable router so I can use my wireless Mac laptop in another room of the house. Airport Extreme has been recommended to me by the local Apple store but neither of us are computer savvy or technically inclined and I have my doubts.

I can't answer specific to the Apple Airport Extreme; however I can answer that the unit is backwards-compatible with USB 2.0 and will work on a computer that has USB 2.0 only.

I am sorry but I don't have an apple router. So I am unable to speak on that. I do have a NetGear router that it connected automatically with. I set it up as an access point and it works great. Since I have a kind of long house and the router is at one end. This has greatly extended our wireless signal in our home. A access point is the best way to go, since it connects to our router by a Cat 6 internet cable so you don't lose part of your bandwidth when you set it up as a WiFi range extender.

Not sure if anyone's answered yet, but this depends upon which A1002 you're talking about. If it's an original emac 800mHz or less, probably. If it's one of the newer ones (2005, ATI, USB2.0) it'll need the airport extreme. They all look the same, but they switched cards about halfway through production, so you have to check your specs.

Hi Joe. Yes, this should work with any AC router even if it's from a different brand.

1Ghz or above and after 2003 you'd need the extreme. Below that (eg, if the processor is 800Mhz), this card should work. The link here should tell you what you need to know: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/imac-g4-flat-panel-faq/imac-g4-how-to-upgrade-airport-bluetooth.html

It all depends on your router. I had to go to the APPLE Airport Extreme because my home is three stories.

yes. routers are not mac or pc specific. we have several of both in our house & it works well with all of our wireless devices.

I'm curious, has anyone tried both the Apple Airport Extreme 5th Gen, and Linksys e4200? Feature wise they appear the same, but what about in terms of reliablity

The answer is yes. There is no difference using this with Ipad Air Print than any other standard wifi router.

This is a router that transmits the new AC wifi format. The devices like the iPad Air use this technology and now can triple wifi speed as compared to the N format. Apple Time Machine is the same as the Airport Extreme except it comes with a hard drive to back up the computers on your network automatically all day and everyday.

Yes. I had an iMac and MacBook Pro. I used the Apple wireless airport. I like the 810. It works fine and has many features but plastic is flimsy. Just be gentle with it

Sorry I am wireless but ifI had to use an adapter I would use the same brand of my router (ie) Belkin, Linksys, etc, that way I would be sure of compatability

Yes. Routers are generic and this router is designed to work with all OS's.
