It's ok, not what you want though

Got this because I have issues with so many wifi networks around my neighborhood. I was interested in the features like 80211AC and the beam forming tech but wasn't impressed. I have pretty old Apple routers and this doesn't compare at all. The range isn't good at all, maybe 2 rooms away if you're lucky and it dropped signal a lot for no reason. I went back to my older AirPort Extreme and I guess I'll just have to deal with it. I'm sure if you got the 3 pack and meshed them together it'd be better, but with just a single one you'll have trouble with anything bigger than an apartment.

Great little item

Got this to play movies and tv shows off my phone while traveling. Just bring this and an hdmi cable and you're set. Much better than other cables too, from what I've seen on amazon some cables aren't able to play Netflix. Probably has something to do with copywrite laws, but this one works with every streaming service available.

Got this so I could play Grand Theft Auto on my iPad on the way to Japan. It sync'd up easy and hasn't lost a beat. Helps play those more complex iOS games like you hope it would. I'd recommend it any day.

Good combo for home and office use

Pretty nice setup for anything you could want to do. Probably not the best for gaming but any regular computing will be just fine. Batteries last forever in this setup and I've never lost connection.

I want to extend my Wifi. I currently use an Xfinity router connected to an Apple Airport Express. Is the connection of the Google Wifi easy? Do I connect it thru the Airport Express or my Xfinity router?

This would replace your Airport Express router. Only Apple devices can connect to each other and form a meshed network. If you want to extend your current wifi network get another Airport Express or you could get an AirPort Extreme and make that your main base station and the Express a satellite one, if that makes sense.

How does this router pick up data from a smartphone?

It doesn't, you use your phone to set the router up. After that your phone will connect to it like any other WIFI signal.

I live outside of town and I have to use satelite internet the signal is very weak and very limited where I am and was wondering if google wifi is compatible with satellite internet

Yea, this will take the wired service and broadcast it throughout your home.

How do you reformat this harddrive so it works on mac? Does the device come with instructions?

Plug it in your mac, open disk utility and then you can select the drive and format it to whatever you want and make partitions if you choose to. Very simple and straightforward on a mac.
