    Hello friends, I am having an Apple macbook pro laptop, this is dual boot with the windows 7 os, along with mac osx. I mainly sue this system in windows platform and basically for the internet access regarding both my official and for the home entertainment purpose. Now I am willing to use some of the wireless devices like the printer, mouse and also willing to ping a new wired router in my system. along with this also planning to remove the windows platform that I am suing, but after that if I activate the wireless service in mac osx platform, then I don’t have any idea on this, though I collect that for the wireless service I need to install the airport application in my system. Some one form here provides me desire information’s about the airport application or if there also some any other information are gathered then this will also be appreciated highly.

    Hey friend,
    I have some of the information regarding airport application, first of all, AirPort is that of Apple's trademark name designed for the wireless network technology based products, it compatible on the IEEE 802.11 DSSS standard, such as AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule .The AirPort base station of the first generation was based on a Intel processor in conjunction with an AirPort card. It contained a modem and an Ethernet port. A later version came with another featured, which is the Ethernet port and containing a PowerPC 860 processor. This generation AirPort transmits exclusively on IEEE 802.11b.

    I per my knowledge about the airport application, which is designed for apple platform, is also designed for connect a USB hub with many systems. The station supports the new Wi-Fi standard 802.11n (draft), can find the 2.4 GHz frequency range in the 5-GHz frequency range to be operated also. It also supports WPA2 encryption, the security weaknesses of the EPA standards closes. This model is backward compatible and also supports the older wireless 802.11b / g and the WFP encryption, it also support dual-band mode.

    Another tool which is used as a main thing with this application is AirPort express, this is a base station that is plugged into the wall socket directly. It offers an Ethernet and a USB port (only for printers) and a connector for a stereo. This allows music to stream over the wireless network. It uses the Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g (since 17 March 2008, the new "n-Draft IEEE 802.11n) and supports other than the 128 bit strong WEP encryption, the WPA - and WPA2 encryption methods. So if you looking for connect printer and along with this also like to stream online music and videos then install this very quickly.

    One of the most likely features of airport application is that, this application also allows you to connect a USB hard drives as a network hard disk (Network Attached Storage) embed. Apple describes this function as an AirPort Disk on the hard disk. Over the network using the Windows network share, along with it if the hard disk with Apple's own file system HFS + formatted, can the benefits of the network using AFP can be used. The AirPort Extreme router has only over a USB connection, but can also have multiple printers and hard drives simultaneously over a USB hub can be connected.

    Most important feature of using the airport application is, the airport card. AirPort card is simply a wireless card. It supports the accepted industry standard IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g also the 802.11n and it also supports a data transfer rate of up to 54 Mbps between the systems of devices, IEEE 802.11b / g and up to 2.5 times faster data transmission at IEEE 802.11n and a WEP encryption up to 128 bit and WPA and WPA2 . AirPort has been with the iBooks introduced the first generation. With a base station could go via a radio network to the Internet. This required an AirPort card , which should be installed. The necessary antennas, however, were integrated from the iBook series.
