I didn't see any mention of length of warranty on Buy's page, only the big "cannot return" lettering. Makes me doubt whether this would be worth getting, especially as they often show up brand new, on sale, for $40-ish.

yeah dd wrt or hyperwrt are what makes these worth it. FTW open-source firmware!

Definitely, not the best price for refurb.

I have had several problems with maintaining a connection to my router since a power surge, but it still works.
