Simply put one of the best i have ever had

I bought this product refubished on Jan. 25, 2009. Its taken two years but it has finally hit the brick yard. I have always seem to have to replace my routers before this one about every 8 to 9 months. I like this brand i like this style. Ordered a different one same brand now have teenage kids and gaming to deal with. Thank you for making a solid product.

Great Router

Worked straight our of the box with minimal set-up necessary (use ethernet cable to begin with and log onto Netgear support site for wireless instructions). Have had it for about a month and no issues yet. Can't ask for more.

frustrating set-up with Windows 7

Because this is an older model router, it took extra work to get it configured with my Windows 7 operating system laptop. I had to communicate by email with Netgear two times to get specific directions on adjusting settings to make my laptop compatible with the router. But now it functions very well.

Don't buy a refurb

Bought a refurb, it didn't come with any instructions. I had to go to the Netgear site for support. After not being able to download the correct instructions, I returned this item for another one.
