No, any Apple product can use any router, and Apple routers will work with any other wifi product.

What is cool about the Apple routers is that they supported 802.11a/b/g/n before anyone else. The new router supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac for super-fast wireless and super long range.

Even better you can buy them with a built-in hard disk which is surprisingly useful. You can automatically, wirelessly, backup your data for example, or use it as a media station, regular hard disk, accessible by remote, etc.

Super best of all its very easy to configure. Apple makes amazing routers.
