[QUOTE="grnvlmike, post: 1008114, member: 140022"] Your connection from your wireless router to your computer is going to be much faster than say, sending it over the net. You are not dealing with ISP bandwidths, traffic, etc... Your first time machine backup you may want to do with it hooked up directly to your computer as it may be gigs of info... after that, its just incremental so its not that bad.. I have an external hooked into my airport extreme that holds all my media and stream movies and music from it to my laptop all the time and keep my entire itunes library on it. [/QUOTE]
