I used to have the Airport Extreme ...

It performed really well (range, speed, signal consistency), but if you have any Windows-based computers, I wouldn't recommend it. It doesn't support uPNP and manually opening ports is a fucking pain in the ass, especially when Apple insists you have to reboot the fucking router every fucking time. There were other issues related to Windows-based PCs, too (Apple's bullshit software and services having to be on any PC that wants to make changes to the router, firmware upgrades every 2 weeks that would fix some things and break others on the PC, etc.)
