Apple Inc. is discontinuing its line of AirPort Wi-Fi routers after not updating the devices for about five years.
The routers let Macs, iPhones, iPads and products from other companies connect to the internet wirelessly. Apple had three versions -- the AirPort Extreme, which worked over greater distances, a cheaper and smaller unit called AirPort Express, and a version that could store files called the AirPort Time Capsule.
