Netgear WPN824NA Recertified Wireless G Router
As a 21st-century consumer, computers are an integral part of your life. But does your home computing environment work for you? Even if you already have a wireless network, you've probably found "dead spots" in your home where your Internet connection fades in and out, or drops off completely.

Now, say good-bye to those dead spots … and say hello to the freedom to work (and play) absolutely anywhere in your home! With the Netgear WPN824NA Recertified Wireless G Router, your whole house becomes a "hot spot." Netgear's exclusive RangeMax technology gives you the longest range of any wireless device on the market today - up to 10 times the wireless coverage of 802.11g. So you'll have a sizzling-fast, consistent connection in every room of your house … and beyond.

Power Under the Hood
The Netgear WPN824NA Recertified Wireless G Router features advanced Smart MIMO (Multi-In, Multi-Out) technology that uses seven internal antennas. RangeMax constantly surveys your home environment for physical barriers and interference and adjusts the wireless signal to compensate for these performance blockers. For example, if you carry your laptop from the family room to the bedroom, RangeMax automatically senses the change and selects from over 100 possible antenna configurations to deliver you the fastest, clearest connection! Everyone will enjoy consistently high-speed connections, everywhere in your house - no drop-outs, and no dead spots.

A Closer Look

Range Matters
Put the Netgear RangeMax Wireless Router to work for you, and that's all you need - leave those range extenders, repeaters, and external antennas at the store. RangeMax adjusts to the interference and physical barriers in your home, and delivers up to 500,000 square feet of coverage - 1000% more than 802.11g. And you don't need to throw away your old wireless devices; RangeMax is 100% compatible with your existing 802.11b/g products and will boost their range and speed by up to 50%.

Simple, Safe, Secure
Think you can't set up your wireless router without an engineering degree? Think again. Netgear's SmartWizard™ makes the set-up easy and hassle-free. SmartWizard automatically detects your ISP's network settings, then walks you through each step of the installation process. It's like having your own computer technician, right by your side.

Great value

Bought this for my dad and his girlfriend they have internet at their house but only one connection. The girlfriend has a Kindle and needs to connect to the internet for her books. This worked flawlessly. Great performance for little outlay of cash.

Great router at excellent price

Purchased this router for my son to use at school. Dorms have wired connections in rooms, but not convenient for multiple items in room. Selected this router because it was similar to the one that I use at home, and I anticipated telephone questions. He was able to get it connected fine for several wireless devices, but could not get his laptop to connect. He brought it home for me to configure. He had it right and it has worked well since. Never found why he had the initial problem. The set-up wizzard is good. The menu for making changes is easy to use. I have purchased multiple remanufactured items and never had a problem with any. Like the Netgear family of products.

Awesome price

I'vm ordering my third one of these. I get between two and three years before the wireless burns out from being on constantly. I had about the same lifespan of a different, much more expensive router from another brand. The cost per year is still far less than any other router, and I won't worry if I eventually decide to upgrade to an N router (only one of my wireless devices support N, so I don't need it). Besides, even G is fast enough to max my internet connection's speed.
