Fits perfectly in an Apple ecosystem

Granted, Apple is probably the company that most distinguishes their products. So it is no surprise that the smallest WLAN device has certain limitations.
It has a USB port, but this is only for printers, not for hard drives. This feature remains Airport Extreme and Time Machine reserved. It has only 2 LAN interfaces (normally, or in a small network is already connected to a port, the Internet modem, the other can be used for another device), for a larger network that is, a switch must be purchased. The LAN ports can only forward speeds of 100Mbit, although the tub is designed for 300Mbit. Paradoxically communicate wireless devices therefore faster than with wired devices.
About these limitations you should be aware.

For positive: The device runs easy, super-quick and easy via the Airport Utility (tested and MacOS).
The function to access via iTunes to speakers that are connected to this unit is fantastic. One can befüttern off the couch stereo system, without there being any stutter.
Operation is super stable, regular restart (as with other network devices for home users) can therefore be saved.
THe 100Mbit are fast enough to stream 1080p HD video from a NAS.
The range is upper average, should thus for a detached house (even with concrete-steel) quite rich.
The device is unobtrusive, small and is only lukewarm.
No external power supply (which would only clog up the strip), thanks to an integrated power supply.
Wide range of functions for professional users (port forwarding, DHCP, IPv6, etc.)

The whole is also available from other manufacturers, sometimes even cheaper. But just Airplay (Control of speakers over the LAN / WLAN) fits perfectly in an Apple ecosystem, is super handy. If that 89 are worth, which can safely access. Who has little idea of ​​networks, can also be accessed safely. Who needs features, the more expensive Apple are reserved WLAN products, the need to look unfortunately there or go to the competition.
