Apple Time Capsule (1TB)
Clean design ; good deal for DraftN router and 500GB or 1TB of storage ; low maintenance data backup for Mac users ; extensibility via USB port
Only average networking performance ; few advanced storage features beyond backup capabilities, and those only for Mac users

Mac users can use the Time Capsule's hard drive for basic storage as well...

I had the Belkin N1 router since it first came out and the distance of the singal was a lot stronger and went a lot farther than the time capsule.
"Back up are flawless - USB isn't"
I am basically happy with the wireless networ...
The Time Capsule installed and worked as a wireless router and a backup drive for Time Machine with little effort. Both have worked flawlessly.
Attaching devices to the USB port is VERY problematic. I can get my UP Deskjet to share over the network but my Fantom HD simply crashed the Time Machine.
"Good in theory, poor in execution.. and I use a MAC!"
Terrible tech supports, Nobody seems to know ...
Backup and setup were very easy ; consistent performance until problems start
Inherrent bugs, keeps having backup failures after 6 months. Had to reset my TC 3 times after the first problems started. Hasn't fully worked since. I am switching to a 'Standard' 1 TB Ext HD for my backups
