The Airport Extreme accepts USB hard drives and printers. The airport communicates with the drives and printer, making them available by running services on the airport itself. If you plug in a device that the airport doesn't understand (that is anything besides a USB hard drive, printer, or hub), nothing happens.

This belkin device (presumably) works just like plugging a USB device into your computer. You plug in any device that your computer can comprehend, and it talks directly to it as if it were plugged in. ]]>Apr 17th 2007 12:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/May 18th 2007 3:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/Apr 17th 2007 12:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/Apr 16th 2007 11:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/

that is so cool and this the right direction, i hate using the stupid usb ports, never are two the same, always flipped and rotated, very annoying. ]]>Apr 17th 2007 1:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/
Because this means you can get devices and cables away from your workstation. For example, I would use this to move my printer and maybe my external drives to another table in my office, thus making my desk less cluttered. It would make access to the drives slow, though.]]>Apr 17th 2007 4:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/
Anyone know of alternatives to belkins offering that they've tried or seen. Something more price competitive maybe.]]>Apr 17th 2007 3:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/
If it does great, but I wish it was Netgear, never had anything but problems with Belkin devices. But hey, if it is the same price as a wireless print server £60 then I may get it, I am tired of my USB devices snaking behind my pc(well there's 1, but if I convince myself there are loads I can justify the cost of this thing)]]>Apr 17th 2007 4:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/May 18th 2007 3:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/
Think of it this way, If you have a laptop and a desktop computer you can share all devices plugged into this hub wirelessly from any where in the house. No more emailing documents to you desktop to print. Also, these devices are plugged into the router, they are not shared through another computer. So another computer doesn't need to be on to use the devices.

I hope that helps!]]>Apr 19th 2007 5:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/16/belkins-802-11n-network-usb-hub-provides-wireless-access-to-acc/
I'd use one of Linksys' solutions, but I don't want to add on an external 5.1 processor.

I'm looking for something that will support that kind of consistent data stream...]]>Jun 11th 2007 5:11PM
