  • "Wireless signal drops/requires power-cycling"
    0.5 stars
    on by a_midlevel_user

    Pros: The GUI is great and easy if you've ever used a linksys box before.

    Cons: The wireless signal drops, and the SSID is virtually hidden until a power-cycle (fwiw, upgraded firmware and setting SSID to broadcast). if the signal doesn't drop, strength varies from 60 mbps to 1. Why upgrade to a less consistent product?

    Summary: Not worth it yet - too soon for 802.11n, it would seem. Stick to the previous version that are B/G. A needless aggravation and a waste of time.
