Hi, sorry to bother you with might be a really dumb question..
I was given an Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station (2011, never opened), and I'm not sure what to do with it...
I assumed it was a wireless router, but while googling it I found out it's a Wireless Access Point. I can't figure out what that means, and I was thinking about swapping out my router for this damn thing, but now I don't even know if they do the same job, let alone if one is better than the other.
So I guess I have two questions:
1. Can I use the Apple Airport Extreme as a wireless router?
B. If yes, should I swap my w8960n TP-link Router for the Apple Airport Extreme?
Thank-you for your help.
