Airport Express Australia Edition vs. US Edition

avsrock90 · Feb 8, 2013, 05:13 PM

Hi All,

Currently in Australia for 6 months and needing a new router for my apartment. I'll be back to the US at the end of that stint and would like for whatever router I get to work in both places.

I could either buy the Australian version (with the Aussie power cord) and then try and buy a US power adapter for it when I get back (is this even possible???), or have family mail me the US version and run it through a power converter here. I know that the channels are somewhat different between the two models - it looks like the Australian version has more available, so maybe it makes more sense to get that version and bring it back?

Thanks for any thoughts!

It should let you choose the country and make proper bands available.
