Hi, Overall, it should be just fine for whatever people wish to do. Sure, you can have 10 GB performance with newer, more modern routers, but the bottleneck is your Internet connection. The fastest residential Internet connections, for the most part, is 1 GB or less. The Airport Extreme and Airport Time Capsules will support that speed just fine. Yes, the processor speed of the newer routers is far superior, but, again, for most people's Internet and other web activity, that just fine. The basic firewall in these Airport units will also stop most attackers. Apple no longer makes these devices, but has continued to release firmware updates throughout the last number of years to patch security vulnerbiliies and to keep up with any problems. The wireless AC protocol is supported on these devices and I've seen WiFi speeds of 1.3 Gb internally when connected.
So, all this being said, no, it is not the latest and greatest. No, it does not have the fastest processors, but in my opinion, for the vast majority of users, it's still a viable and useful product that will give you quality speed and security. JMO. Later...
