I have an Airport Extreme. Bought it when it first came out. Every couple hours it disconnects me from the internet and I have to cycle power to get things working again.
I just took it to the Genius Bar today and he basically said I'm SOL, warranty is up, and to just buy an AP Express since it's smaller, has the same range, and operates on more channels than the Extreme.
Now, besides my obvious annoyance that that is hardly how one troubleshoots a piece of hardware, why would the price point be so different? Is it simply because the Extreme has a WAN port and a modem? Or is there a performance difference that he neglected to tell me about?
Before I spend any more money, I'd like to hear some suggestions (regarding any facet of this problem...).
