Perfect router for small networks. Faster than Wireless G, and has a nice feature which auto assigns a wireless channel based on what networks are around you. Helps a lot in my apartment complex where everyone has their own router and no network experience, making the networks collide and unusable. This router will find the right channel, and you'll have a stable, secure network up and running in no time.

Probably not the simplest router to install as a "first time router installer". The set-up CD would not run, even though the router was working. I called Netgear tech support and had difficulty understanding the tech as he spoke with an accent foreign to me. He said I did not need to run the CD if the router is working. I asked "how do I set up a secure, locked network?" "I'm sure the CD would've provided instructions for that". I don't think he understood me! He repeated "you don't need to run the CD if the router is working". At this point I was providing free wi-fi to anyone who happened to park in my driveway. He never answered my question. I called Staples. They were able to assist me and I was able to set up a secure, locked router. Thanks Staples. I would probably buy a different brand of router next time. If you buy this router, be sure to read the set-up instructions CAREFULLY and you better follow every step precisely including: when to turn off your modem, when to plug in the router, when to turn on the modem, when to turn on the router, etc...

          I like the fact that there is a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. This tells me that they stand behind the quality of this product. So far I have not had any issues with the product but I have only had it for about a month.

            When my old router died after 7 years, I needed a replacement. We have two laptops that connect wirelessly. One uses Windows and Linux. Both connect seamlessly. Throuput of this unit is entirely satisfactory for us. We do email and web browsing and watch some internet video. Speed is compatable with our basic high speed connection.

              We currently have a modem that is also a router (wired). Will this product work with that modem (a Zoom), or will we also need to get a new modem?

                This will work with your current modem. You would just want to make sure you are connecting to the correct wireless network when you use your computer.

                You still need a modem. The modem is what actually connects you to the internet. The router just broadcasts a wireless signal.

              1 answer

              • A:

                This router has a built in 4 port Ethernet hub, so you would connect your desktop computer via that. The 29.99 adapter is if you want to connect your desktop via wireless and don't already have a wireless adapter in the computer.
