My poor old trusty Airport Time Capsule still sits chugging away on its wall mount doing its job year after year. It never seems to die or have any hiccups. Hell, it might outlive me.
My Airport express still serves well as a printer router -- since I dumped my satellite ISP and went to a cellular ISP that provides its own wi-fi hotspot.
Even when located in the house, the hotspot barely covers the 70' dimension of our house.
But , my granddaughter swears that she was sitting in the back seat, still surfing on the Airport -- when we were over two miles from home!

I am on my second one and it is now acting up. I think the first one lasted about 5 years and this one is about 3 years old. Would you like to trade 2 for 1? ;>)
