Airport Extreme 6th Generation
I have an Airport Extreme 6th Generation (Model A1521). It still works great for my home network and the specifications are still impressive in 2022 with the exception of no 802.11ax or WPA3.
So if I were to replace it with a device with 802.11ax and WPA3, there is a confusing number of options to choose from and I'm hoping someone here can help with a few options.
What I'm looking for is something as simple and reliable as the AE 6th Gen and a utility as easy to use as Airport Utility. Could be a single or mesh device. Would need to be backward compatible because the range of devices on the network are from an iMac Late 2009 to iPhone 12 Mini with several in-between. Next year will have more WiFI ax on the network.
Any advise is appreciated. Even a reliable brand would be helpful.
