Apple AirPort Express:UNBOXING

The unboxing of the Apple AirPort Express [1st gen]

The 1st generation was released in 2008 and has only been revised in June 2012. The 1st generation Apple AirPort Express is a b/g/n router, but the actual “n” support was added in late 2010. Until then, the router only had “draft n” support, which is basically an unfinished version of “n”.

What sets this router apart from the other ones, is the 3 main features of this device:

-extremely easy and quick setup
-print wirelessly from any device (including your iPhone/iPad/iPod or any device that features a wireless connection)
-listen to music wirelessly from anywhere you are in your home (AirPlay).

The router has an LED indicator light, which can blink amber or show a solid amber/green, depending on the status of your device.
