    This is an excellent wifi extender and will improve your wifi distance significantly throughout your home. My signal was a weak 1-2 bars on my far side from the router but after installing this my signal went to full strength of 5 bars.

    Good for extending apple airport wifi networks or to use to stream music. Very easy configuration. Unlike the previous version, has a separate power cord, rather than the whole unit plugging into the wall outlet. This can be a pro or con, depending on where you want to put it

    Great refurb, half price. Improved range of my apple airport extreme router. Added this airport to my apple network and it got me full bars in parts of my house that were slow/sketchy before. Now i can stream video on the deck outside!

    The Apple router can extend your connection and also you can connect it to a speaker, printer or hard drive.

    I'm pretty new to Apple products and when this was recommended for my home, I was worried it'd be too much for me and I'd need help figuring it out. Boy was I wrong! It was a really easy to set up and I'm loving it. I'm so glad I bought this.

    One of the best N router around. Very reliable and stable router. No reboot yet since day one. Airplay is an excellent feature too. I get 300Mbps all the time without having to change Wifi settings on my laptops.

    It might not be the most technologically advanced router but the functionality with apple products is well worth it. For the internet speeds I get, like most people, this is really easy to use, manage and work with router.

    Worst out of the streaming device

    Out of all the streaming devices I would rate this the worst. It's not bad just doesn't have a lot of features. I mainly use it for the AirPlay and that's really it. If you want it for streaming media , use a roku or fire stick.

    I needed a second home network for home studio and this was a great solution. I had to do a factory reset and did a bios update on the device. It was every bit as reliable as a new one. No regrets!

    I use this as an extender to my airport extreme. Uses the same wifi network so acts like a mesh instead of changing networks as you walk between rooms. Refurbished item can in like new condition.

    The item I received still had someone else's SSID and password on it. I had to spend the time doing a factory reset on a device that was supposed to be refurbished. Other than that the item seems to be working for now.
