I thought transfers between my laptop and a server would be considerably faster, but there's no discernable difference. Maybe I still need to buy the $1.99 enabler software, even though this laptop was purchased after they shipped the new Extreme.
I was confused at first when I ran the Airport Admin Utility after installing the new software. It still complained that it wasn't compatible with the new version, but then after reading the MacInTouch review, I realized that they were no longer maintaining it, and ran the new "Airport Utility," and all was good. The setup took just a few minutes, and went smoothly.
