    Pros: Works great if you have a good understanding of setting up networks. Quick setup works good. USB conectivity!!!! excelent coverage.

    Cons: the wirless n speed is lacking. I can't get mine to work much above 130mbps at distances over 5 feet.

    Summary: Initially i had problems connecting to the wireless n portion of the router. I then discovered that the wireless card in my computer just needed the driver updated and it worked perfectly after that. I set it up with an external hard drive attached for network storage and it works great. my only real grip is the lack of speen on the wireless n setting. The only time i can get the speed above 130mbps is when i am sitting within 2 or 3 feet of my router. Then it keeps the 130mbps connection for about 50 feet through my house before falling to yet a lower speed.
