An overpriced router that is capable of broadcasting on 5.8Ghz bands? Sounds great. Except.. Nobody has 5.8Ghz network cards? Every computer I've ever used only has 2.4Ghz cards. Oh well.

Apple TV does too. Since this is an Apple router you might guess it's mostly purchased by people who own hardware like this. Follow? As for the price I'd say it's about $50 more expensive than a similar generic 802.11N / 5Ghz / 4x GigE router. If you want to pay the extra $50 you're doing it to get networkable TimeMachine support, Bonjour USB printer sharing, and automatic firmware updates via Apple's software update service. Along with a pretty good GUI configuration tool and Apple support. If you don't want to pay the $50 more Macs, of course, work with any 802.11N router. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sinister Joe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2009 11:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'd rather have my D-Link with DD-WRT.

For this reason, 2.4ghz networking never comes CLOSE to the supposed throughput. Have you ever seen an 802.11g connection actually put 54MBPS through? Hell no! It's because the EM spectrum at 2.8ghz is a mess.<br><br>5.8ghz will prove to be much faster. Combining 802.11n with devices that can receive and transmit on 5.8ghz = greatly improved throughput over 2.4ghz devices.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bradsh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 20th 2009 12:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's.....the iPad!!!! z0MG!! :D]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Slutty McNugget]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2009 10:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hope there are new iMacs and such...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ashley Jones]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2009 10:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'll bet Apple will make us pay to unlock this "new feature" in the current generation MBPs...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Henry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 20th 2009 9:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[I KNOW!

The AP will have 2 radios - one 2.4GHz and one 5GHz.  The 3 x 3 has to do with the number of transmit and receive chains for each radio (aka MIMO - multiple input/multiple output).  If you crack one of the suckers open, you should see 6 antennas: 3 for the 2.4GHz radio, and 3 for the 5GHz radio.  A 3 x 3 radio can transmit and receive via all three antennas.<br><br>What is MIMO?<br>MIMO is an abbreviation for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output, which refers to the ability of equipment to handle multiple data input and multiple data output operation.  Wi-Fi CERTIFIED n  devices make use of multiple antennas to send and receive more than one communication signal simultaneously. This is similar to having two FM radios tuned to the same channel at the same time - the signal becomes louder and clearer. This multiplies the performance of the Wi-Fi signal, and is reflected in the two, three, or even more antennas found on some Wi-Fi CERTIFIED n access points or routers. <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[runbuh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 20th 2009 12:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[The voice of reason has spoken. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Swimatm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 20th 2009 2:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[i dont no what  is it <br>but i want one ... i want one  ....where is it .... where is it<br><br>this rumors are killing me, but they also make me alive .<br><br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[goodsense]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 20th 2009 6:03AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[IT'S THE ALMIGHTY TABLET.<br><br>MacBook Touch with Airport Extreme ROUTER built in inside, how genius!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ZbHRP]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 20th 2009 7:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple 3x3 access point hits the FCC with 5.8GHz bands]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/19/apple-3x3-access-point-hits-the-fcc-with-5-8ghz-bands/</guid><description><![CDATA[Every mac with wifi has a built in router.
