I just scored an Airport Extreme (new to me) off ebay. The seller stated that there was no software with it. Can someone tell me what software I'll need to run my iMac and MBP off the router. I updated my network utility yesterday, is there anything else I should be doing?

Thanks in advance for your help. :apple:
 
You don't need any software at all. Everything needed to set it up and use it are installed and updated by default on Mac OS X.
 
Airport Extreme arrived yesterday and setup was incredibly easy. I opened up the utility and set a name and password up and off we went. Running an iMac, MBP, a Dell laptop, two Kindle Fires, a couple of iPhone 4's, and one iPhone 3 on the wi-fi, as well as a Gateway desktop hard wired into the router. Signal strength is improved greatly and speed is great. I'm inpressed.
