Dan isn’t a politically-neutral automaton. Obviously you’ve got opinions too, so he has just as much a right expressing his as you do expressing yours.

I’ve had a lot of problems with an Airport Extreme N just stopping routing. You can ping the router from the Internet on its public IP, and you can ping it on the LAN, but it doesn’t route packets.

…ended up reconfiguring it as an access point and using a Linksys as the router.

It’s the most disappointing Apple product I’ve ever owned, and the Apple forums have hundreds, possibly even thousands of postings from other users who are having the same problems and/or lots of other problems.
