PROBLEM: Another granddaughter gift and she is very happy.

SOLUTION: Five Stars

PROBLEM: USB 3.0 is a jump for the Dell Latitude that i am using. Unable to utilize this feature. Requires a different docking station. Would like to have had the dual option of USB 2.0 and 3.0.

SOLUTION: Very Bright! New features

PROBLEM: It hurt to pay so much, but I had the feeling that getting the Airport Extreme Base Station would save me time and headaches when trying to share broadband between a PC and Mac.<br />I was successful with this platform/OS/equipment combination:<BR>Apple M8930LL/A Airport Extreme Base Station<BR>Mac: OS 10.1.5, Apple Airport Card<BR>PC: Win2000 Pro, NetGear MA101 Wireless USB Adapter <br />Plugged an ISP-provided DSL modem into the Base Station and configured the Base Station using the Mac. (Had no success with Apple's Airport Admin config software for the PC.)<br />Then plugged in the NetGear MA101 on the PC, installed the software from CD, and configured the settings to match the Mac security.<br />I got strong signal strength and throughput from both the NetGear MA101 and the Airport Card in a three story house.<BR>40-bit WEP works fine. 128-bit is occasionally a little buggy on the PC, requiring me to temporarily reset both platforms to 40-bit. <br />Haven't tried setting up file sharing yet, but will attempt the USB printer connection on the Base Station. (Caution, check Apple.com/airport for list if approved USB printers that will work with the Base Station. Also, this USB printer feature supposedly requires the Mac to run OS 10.2.3+)<br />I wish the Airport Base Station manual had more scenario details and suggestions how to tailor your WAN configuration. I spent a lot of time searching the Apple BBS regarding questions I think should have been covered in the manual.<br />Overall, the Airport Extreme Base Station is a thing of beauty to look at, relatively easy to configure -- but I'm scared to death of someone knocking it to the floor.

SOLUTION:
Share broadband between Mac & PC
