Summary: brilliant
Comment: This is a really easy product to set up. The wizard works well and detects your connection very quickly. The router is quick and although the wireless is the not the best thst i've seen, it is still very good.

This product is also very good if your adsl line has a low SNR rating (this will result is drops in connections on most modems, google SNR if your unsure what this is) however, i can easily get 8mbps without any drops on this modem. Something my orange livebox and 3 other modems could not do.

Summary: Poor right out of the box
Comment: Purchased this and it was delivered today.
I thought I would finally update from my USRobotics wired router and get a wireless one.
Plugged this in correctly as I have done with many other routers before. The Internet light never came on even after trying 3 different filters and 3 different cables and checking the phone line. My old one is now connected again. After wasting £12 on hold to netgear, I have just boxed it back up and am sending it back to amazon tomorrow. It only gets 2 stars because the wireless reception across the network was very good. But its fault at new of not finding the internet has left me disappointed.

Summary: I'm up an running!
Comment: I'm delighted with this purchase which was slightly cheaper from Amazon than from TalkTalk, who sell it as their favoured wireless router. I succeeded in setting up the modem and getting on to the internet with the ethernet cable plugged into my PC. Then, I came a bit unstuck with my USB adaptor installation, as I don't think I had read the installation guide properly. No matter, a call to Netgear's 24/7 helpline and I was up an running 20 minutes later. Thank you to a wonderfully patient agent who talked me through the last bit, explained about the isp code that had to be typed into the address bar, and advised me to write down the sequence of installation, in case I ever have to re-master my PC.
What a pretty looking device and it works instantly with my TalkTalk broadband service, so a great improvement on my old speedtouch router.

Summary: Fantastic cheap router with minor limitations
Comment: This wireless router is cheaper than some wired only routers. I got it up any running within 3 minutes by plugging it in autodetecting my internet settings and putting in my username and password. NO problem and it seems faster than my previous belkin router. It has an excellent web interface with a full set of features as well as an excellent help panel for the less experienced. It has uPnP WPA2 firewall VPN. It passes Shields Up at grc.com with full marks.

There are limitations -
only b and g networking no wireless n (or draft n)
no gigabit ethernet
no Voip support

Assuming you don't need any of the above features (which I didn't) this is an excellent value well specified router. Compared to my old Belkin router this is a delight.

Summary: Don't buy!
Comment: please don't buy this!

I have had nothing but problems with it. It is always dropping the connection or it is making the connection very slow.

Awful product, don't trust Netgear.
