#A1521 MANUAL SERIAL NUMBERS#
Use the serial numbers to differentiate the two devices, and see this separate iFixit page for repair information on the Time Capsule.
The Airport Time Capsule is a similar device it is identical to the Extreme but has an internal hard drive for backups. You can find the serial number on the bottom of all Airport Extreme models and use Apple’s serial number lookup page to find your specific router. The final version, model A1521, was much taller than all previous revisions. Apple released six more revisions of the Airport Extreme through 2013 which all featured a new square design and faster dual band 2.4/5 GHz networking. You can distinguish this model from the Base Stations because this router has the words “Airport Extreme“ written on the top of the shell. The first generation of the Airport Extreme featured the same UFO design as the Base Station, but used a faster Wi-Fi standard and included a USB port for sharing printers on your network. In 2003, Apple released the Airport Extreme, which superseded the Base Station. You can identify both of these routers by their conical shape shown on this CBS News page. Apple released a revised Base Station in 2001 with a second Ethernet port and a white shell. The Airport Base Station is shaped like a UFO saucer topped with a cone, and the first model had a gray plastic shell. The original Base Station featured an Ethernet port to connect to an external modem as well as a built-in 56k dialup modem. Apple introduced its first wireless router in July 1999 with the release of the Airport Base Station.
