setup was obscure, though, yes, pretty quick. if you have a printer with scanner 2-in-1, it doesn't scan wirelessly. sound streaming works ONLY with itunes (only music, too). do not try the airfoil thing, the sound drags behind (the gap is about 2-3 seconds).
if you have a usb modem and it's on, if you turn on airport, the connection dies off.
though for people with an ethernet cable the only problems would be sound streaming and wifi scanning.
Awesome!

This thing took less then a minute to get it set up and stream my music from my laptop to my stereo wireleslly. Simply awesome! The only wish now would be to be able to plug my external hd's into the usb and share..but that only works for printer sharing for now..
ethernet cable needed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i bought this used online. here's what i did. i set up my verizon modem wirelessly to my airport. from the airport express to my mac book. BAD IDEA!!!!! the music on airtunes would drop whenever I surfed the internet. blame it on the old modem etc whatever. the modem works fine actually. i don't want to buy a bigger/better one.
so what I did was rig an ethernet from my modem to my airport and FROM THERE I WENT WIRELESS TO MY MACBOOK.
end result is solid as all hell. amazing stability. only issue is putting the airport express near my stereo (input output etc), so my ethernet cable is really long. for me it's worth it.
the network is solid now.
Great Product

Over the last couple of years, I have dealt with the cheaper netgear, d-link wireless routers, and I can say that this apple airport express is the best and easiest to use. I know that this product cost a little more than the run-of-the-mill brands, but it is worth it in customer service and reliability. It literally took about 3 minutes to setup and I have been impressed ever since. I love that I can hook up my printer and stereo to this and place music and print via wireless connection. Great product, I recommend it!
TWENTY BUCKS LESS DIRECTLY FROM APPLE!!

Woah! No point purchasing the AirPort Express from Amazon... you can buy it directly from Apple for only $99.00 with free shipping. Oh, by the way - this thing is excellent for streaming your iTunes music wirelessly anywhere in your house!
