I have always used the AirPort Extreme as my wireless router and for backing up my MacBook Pro.

I got a new router from Xfinity and it is probably faster than my Airport according to Apple. Now I'm looking for options just for backing up my MacBook. Do any of you have suggestions? Not needing the most expensive thing but I also don't want to have to plug it in to back it up. Is there anything that can plus into the Xfinity modem and work as a cloud?

Many thanks and sorry for the dumb question. :cool:
 
There are a couple of external drives you can purchase that are meant for network storage and you can use for Time Machine backups
