Customer Rating
5.0
This is my first time going with an Apple router, and it turned out to be an easy decision. It's more expensive than your usual Netgear and Linksys routers, but it is fast! I have 50 Mbps internet speed from Comcast at home, and this router allowed 50 Mbps connection to Wifi, not just LAN. I was also able to create a separate (open) guest Wifi network so guests don't have to ask me for Wifi network password when they visit. The management interface is a little different, so you may feel power-less compared to other management interfaces that you were used to with other brands.

Good enough for home use, and basic business use. Haven't tested it for gaming yet, but I'm sure these will work well for games too.

I bought this UPS for cable modem, Apple Router and set-top boxes to protect against power blips and purges. It worked great when I had power outage for a couple of hours, providing internet on mobile devices while the whole house was dark.

I use this drive to store multimedia drives, which work great. Just make sure you find the settings for power management, because it may have issues with waking up from sleep/hibernation and start "clicking"

Great TV with beautiful pictures. It was a little pricey, so I'm hoping it is worth it. Over the air HD channels are OK, but everything else is good.

WD - My Passport Ultra 1TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive - Black
Save your files quickly with this WD My Passport Ultra external hard drive, which features a USB 3.0 interface for transmitting data at up to 480 Mbps. The 1TB capacity offers ample space for data backup and file storage.
My Passport will not open
I accidentally downloaded the new windows 10 update to the passport instead of my computer drive. Now my passport will not open the files i have saved on there. Is there a way I can pull the files from there or get Windows 10 off? Did this delete all my files???
When you say "accidentally downloaded the new windows 10" did you mean to say you installed Windows 10 on your external hard drive? If so, the data that was on the drive before installation of Windows 10 has been written over. There may still be a chance to use commercial-grade recovery software and tools to recover the data, but it's a long, expensive shot. Moreover, If Windows 10 has been running on the external drive, then your recovery chance decreases since Windows 10 will have written over the data area as many times as you booted up Windows 10.
You can try to plug this drive into another computer with recovery software installed and see if you can read the deleted data (using recovery software).
Good luck!
