TP-Link router MR3420 for R249?

[naeem]

So found this on BidorBuy

seller seems legit ie. verified by BOB and 100+ items sold with reviews.

R249, not sure what they mean by refurbished - its a router, either works or does not. Doubt anyone can fix much on these?


Any opinions on this?

Buy new... And not a MR3420. I happily gave mine away eventually. My friend is still angry at me for dumping it on him.

Lol. +1. I even managed to SELL mine to a friend! Although he's not my friend any more :-\

I actually swopped mine for a couple of packs of ground coffee (as good giving it away) and still feel like the winner.

Were you sipping it whilst helping your friend troubleshooting over the phone?

Hell no! Who can afford that kind of airtime? I made him sign a disclaimer also stating he shall not call me for support.

What makes this router so bad?

I have heard great things about TP-Link
