My setup is a little unusual, but not especially complicated..

Superhub 1 (in modem mode) connected to a Cisco E4200. This is providing wifi and wired access. It's also connected to an Apple Time Capsule that is acting a switch, wifi extender (set up to ensure adequate speed at the back of my house) and NAS. The Time Capsule will also have another function when I've finished checking that I was able to restore all my data properly as I have an external HDD that was hosting a temporary image of my Mac Laptop. This function will be to act as a storage location for Time Machine on the couple of Macs we have.

I know off site backup is best, and any really important data is backed up off site. This is just to enable quicker recovery should something happen to one of the Macs (such as hard drive failure).
