I am replacing an older Time Capsule and so far this has been great - it does well for high speed internet and gives us peace of mind by doing automatic backups. The fact that it is refurbished has not been a problem thus far.

This is a great wireless router that doubles to backup everything wirelessly to its 3TB hard drive.

I got this refurbished router for and excellent price. It arrived in great shape, was easy to set up and has worked great since then.

I've used netgear n linksys routers in past this was my first apple router. Pros Configuration was easy Internal hard drive was fast Features to format harddrive were good(7 pass ,35 pass secure delete) Time backups were easy on my mac Cons brother wireless printer mfc2700 got configured, but did not work even once wirelessly The wifi range at this price is much less than competition The SSID broadcast can be disabled but has some other quirks and limitations Every setting update causes the network to go down The shared hard drive is inaccessible via mobile devices, so you can't dump files from iPhone, iPad without a hack I think for this price I expected much more

The tower is fantastic for backing up from multiple computers, including both of our MacBooks and our PC. The router is great when used behind the Comcast router as it adds a layer of firewall protection. Outstanding.
