   AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.6.7 and 7.7.7

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Apple has released firmware updates for AirPort Extreme and AirPort
   Time Capsule base stations with [1]802.11ac Wi-Fi (the tower-like
   models receive Update 7.7.7), as well as older AirPort Express, AirPort
   Extreme, and AirPort Time Capsule models with [2]802.11n Wi-Fi (Update
   7.6.7). Both firmware updates fix a bug that could prevent
   communication between clients on the same network, improve performance
   with an extended guest network, and sort out potential naming conflicts
   with Bonjour Sleep Proxy. You must update your AirPort base station
   using AirPort Utility on your Mac or an iOS device with the free
   [3]AirPort Utility app installed (the download isn't available via the
   Apple Support Web page or Software Update).
