What is the mbps speed of AirPort Extreme?

What is the MBPS speed of the AirPort Extreme 5th Generation?

Ethernet....1,000 Mbps
Wireless....up to 450 Mbps
But, your Internet connection will be no faster than what your service plan provides to you....probably something in the 10 to 20 Mbps range more or less.

  • What's the maximum speed that AirPort Extreme can share with Wifi?

    The thing is that I am going to buy a new Wifi Router, but I was considering an AirPort Extreme from Apple but is not specify what's the maximum speed of Internet connection for the Wifi to share, I know that the limit might depend on my service provider, but I don't know what is the theoretical maximum of the AirPort Extreme, does anybody knows?

    1,000 Mbps on an Ethernet connection
    450 Mbps on a wireless connection, assuming you have a new computer and it has line of sight with the AirPort Extreme. Otherwise, the speed will be lower due to obstructions absorbing the signal.

  • HT4260 what is the actual range of airport extreme in meters ? can  it cover my whole home if it is in the range of 50 meters of radius ?

    What is the actual range of the Airport Extreme in Metres? Can it Cover up to 50m in Radius?

    What is the actual range of the Airport Extreme in Metres? Can it Cover up to 50m in Radius?
    50m would be approximately the range.....if there were no walls or obstructions in the path the wireless signal must travel.
    Since we know nothing about how many walls, ceilings or other obstructions there might be the path that the wireless signal would take in your home, or the construction type of those obstructions, we cannot even make a guess about whether the AirPort Extreme might provide a signal to cover your home.

  • What is the power consumption of airport extreme

    I have bought a time capsule which is fits close to my TV and HIFI but I realized it gets really hot, would I have a similar problem with Airport Extreme or is power consomption lower ?

    The TC has a maximum power consumption of 34 watts; the AEBSn uses around 22 watts. Both will run "hot" as they employ large heat sinks just under the top surface to dissapate heat. It is important to allow for enough area around either base station to allow for an adequate exchange of heat from the device to the surrounding air.

  • What are the steps to upgrade airport extreme?

    I have an older airport extreme and network and I'd like to spin up a new network with the new airport extreme. I am having difficulty even accessing the set-up menu and the manual only covers patently new installations.
    Does anyone out there have a reliable set of upgrade steps?
    Thanks!

    Newer versions of the AirPort Extreme have different hardware than earlier versions . Sorry, but you will not be able to update your older version AirPort Extreme to operate as if it were a newer version.
    You can check to see if any firmware updates are available for your AirPort Extreme, but this will not add new "features" to your current version.
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click directly on the word Version and any available firmware updates will be displayed.

  • What is the expected range of Airport Extreme on 5 GHz band?

    I just installed a AE 5 gen.  I live in a wood frame home and I having difficulty receiving adequate signal levels (5 GHz) on the second floor.  Total distance 40 feet and two frame walls (one wall and one ceiling).  I am replacing a LinkSys E2500 that presented a greater signal level with the same router Powerbook  placement.  Any suggestions?

    The bottom line here is that the issue is one of obstructions, not distance. A ceiling is probably about equal to 3 normal walls in terms of absorbsion, so anywhere from 60-80% of the signal will be lost. If you need more wireless coverage upstairs, then it is likely that another AirPort Extreme will be needed in that location.
    Since the signal is already quite weak upstairs, trying to "extend" the signal by using wireless only will only result in a weak signal being extended a bit further. No real improvement at all.
    You will likely need to plan to connect the second AirPort Extreme using an Ethernet connection to maintain the bandwidth on the network.
    The best solution by far is to run an Ethernet cable to the second AirPort Extreme. If that is not possible, the next best choice would be to use a pair of Ethernet power line adapters to send the signal over the existing power lines in your home.
    This is an "iffy" type of thing, because it is one of those types of things where you will not know if it will work until you try it in your home. If you decide to try this route, make sure that you have a clear understanding of the store's return policy in case things do not work as hoped.

  • I'm trying to extend the range of an Airport Extreme 802.11g by adding an Airport Express 802.11n. I set the Express up to join the existing network, but it does not make any difference in the range of the network. What's wrong?

    Let me see if I can help you with the basic WDS configuration steps:
    Note: To help facilitate the setup, temporarily connect the AXn directly to the AEBS LAN port using an Ethernet cable. Once the setup is complete, you can move the AXn to the desired location. For all configuration steps you will be using the AirPort Utility. Before starting, be sure to jot down the AppleIDs for both base stations.
    802.11g AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) Configuration
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBS > Manual Setup > Wireless tab
    Wireless Mode: Participate in a WDS network
    Manual Setup > WDS tab
    WDS Mode: WDS main
    Allow wireless clients (checked)
    WDS Remotes: <enter the AppleID for the AXn here>
    Click on Update and allow the base station to restart.

  • I have the Jetpack 4GLTE, what is the Mbps download and upload speeds for this device?

    I have the Jetpack 4GLTE, what is the Mbps download and upload speeds for this device?

    The avgrage real speed will be more in the area of 25 to 38 Mbps  You would need to be in a strong signal area with high grade cell tower service and low customer use to even reach 50 Mbps. 
    From Verizon page.  Just be aware that using the MiFi 6620L can cost a lot of money. And you can thank the device's fast performance for that. In my testing around the San Francisco Bay Area, rathe device delivered blazing-fast download speeds that nged between around 10Mbps to around 40Mbps. At those speeds, you can burn through 4GB of data in just less than an hour. Once you reach the cap, of course, you'll have to pay somewhere between $10 to $15 for each additional gigabyte, depending on the plan you sign up for.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    There are a number of factors in the 'speed' equation. Any or all of them can affect the 'observed' speed of your connection.
    1. Are you in a neighborhood full of WiFi routers (and thus, lots of WiFi interference)? I can 'see' at least 22 other WiFi routers from my living room!
    2. What is the maximum connect speed and band and bandwidth available from your wireless router. Is it 802.11n or the older 802.11a/b/g? 300Mbits or 150Mbits? 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz or both? Does your router measure (QoS) Quality of Service and can it change 'channels' automatically?
    3. What is the observed strength of your wireless connection? Are you getting at least 80% signal when connected? Are there other people in your family also using significant bandwidth at the same time (Netflix, streaming video, streaming audio, game systems)
    4. What is the "advertised" speed of your current ISP connection?
    5. What is the measured throughput of your current setup.  Go to speedtest.net or use the free speedtest.net app available in the App Store.  Try several times, from different locations in your home, and at different times of day and night.
    I have AT&T DSL advertised at 3Mbit/sec down and 512Kbit/sec up. My Speedtest.net measured throughput is about 2.4 Mbit/sec downstream and upstream is about 0.4Mbit/sec. I'm using a Motorola Netopia 2210-2 DSL modem. I have no problem viewing YouTube videos and other mobile video content on the iPad 2.  I'm connected wirelessly to a D-Link DIR-655 Gigabit router rated at 150Mbps at 2.4Ghz (only) with 802.11 b/g/n enabled. The interior of my home is within a range of 30-50 feet from the router and no more than 1 wall.  It is a single level concrete slab foundation of about 1500 sq. ft. with cathedral ceilings. I have successfully streamed ESPN3.com on my MacBook at the same time my son was streaming another ESPN3.com game on his MacBook Pro. I've streamed YouTube videos while my son was watching a NetFlix movie on his Wii game system. He's also successfully used Skype for extended 'teleconferences.' None of my devices are connected to HDMI on a large screen TV. 95% of the time, I can do iChat video without any signal breakup to my son (who is at a college with a Gigabit (1000Mbit) wired connection!). 5% of the time the connection drops. We haven't tried FaceTime (designed for mobile connections to be much less bandwidth-intensive, from what I understand) simply because we both have iChat on our computers.
    So for me, a 3Mbit DSL connection is absolutely adequate, given all the other parameters mentioned. As the car manufacturers say, "Your mileage may vary."

    I have already bought a macbook pro in USA and I want to use it in Europe. What adapter I need for my Airport Extreme?

    No power adaptor is needed as the power units are auto-switching. But you will need wall outlet adaptors such as you will find in Apple's World Travel Kit, at AAA stores, and other vendors.

  • Help! Im trying to extend the network on my Airport Extreme with an Express

    This is probably such a begginers question but it has truely boggled my mind for the last 24 Hours!
    I have brought an airport express to extend my airport extreme network. My Airport extreme is the base and is hooked up to my initial Home model from my ISP which works fine.
    I have been trying to connect my airport express and am having no luck. I have plugged the airport in but am having no luck locating it on my airport utility (only my actual Airport Extreme shows)
    Can someone please help me Ive been here for hours reading on forums trying to sort this out and Im gettin nowhere fast!
    The light on the express is flashing orange. I have tried to reset it but there still is nothing showing.
    any ideal on what i could do or follow step by step?

    Ok, the question is how can i extend the range with
    my airport extreme base,
    With an Airport Express or another Airport Extreme
    I have A netgear WNP802, it
    has a repeating feature.
    Which won't work with your Airport Extreme
    < But i am wanting to have the
    netgear and the apple airport extreme talk to each
    other so that i can put the net gear in a seperate
    room to extend the range of signal. </div>
    This is not possible.
    How can i do this?
    You can't.
    Netgear and Apple use different chips which means they won't and can't talk to each other when it comes to extending networks.
