Apple AirPort Express or Extreme Base Station (Refurbished)

Create a new, more reliable WiFi network in your home with either of these Apple base stations, both of which support next-level dual-band WiFi connections.

Stronger, More Reliable WiFi

Syncing your mobile device or laptop to either of these base stations blesses your device with a dual-band wireless connection, which can operate up to three times faster than traditional WiFi signals. That’s because they operate on two bands, a 2.4GHz band and a 5GHz band that can handle high-bandwidth activities like HD streaming and gaming. The AirPort Extreme base station provides even higher signal dispersion by incorporating six different antennas that boost both power and range.

Quick and Easy Set Up

All it takes is a few taps, which you may or may not time to the tune of “Yankee Doodle,” to create a new wireless network using an iOS device. There’s no complicated setup here, and the base stations are compatible with multiple devices, including Macs, iPhones, and iPads. 

Built-In Safety Features

Integrated into both base stations is a firewall designed to protect your network from nefarious interlopers and emails sent from annoying exes. The firewall turns on automatically, so you can rest assured that your connection won’t be undone by the keyboard clicks of some distant hacker.

About Apple

From the start, Steve Jobs was enthralled with not only the novelty of technology but also its design. When speaking about the Apple computer, he said it was “going to be insanely beautiful.” Over the years, Apple’s products have worked to fuse innovative technology with almost artful design. The iMac stunned the world with its colorful plastic shells, which the New York Times said “more closely resemble a pack of Life Savers than a new computer line.” The glossy white iPod—no bigger than a deck of playing cards—could hold an entire library of music. Time Magazine named the iPhone the Invention of the Year for its stunning design and, uniquely, because of the promise it held for even better products in the future. With each new item they launch, Apple works to shape the way future societies communicate, learn, and dance when they’re alone.
