Not to be lost in the flurry of news surrounding the iMac, Mac Mini and Mac Pro update, Apple has also quietly gone ahead and updated the AirPort Extreme Base Station and Time Capsule. Both units now feature simultaneous 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz dual-band networking for increased performance and range. A new ‘Guest Network’ feature also allows the setting up of a secondary network for friends and visitors… You can allow users on the secondary access to internet-only, which will save you from divulging your WiFi password.

The revamped AirPort Extreme Base Station is available for $179, while the Time Capsule comes in at $299 for the 500GB model and $499 for the 1TB.
