"Known Issue with Firmware - Product is Defective" on by TakenAdvantageOf
Pros: If you are only using one device at a time linked to this Wireless Router you can pull 270mbs through several walls.
Cons: Net Gear is aware of a known Firmware failure in this product. When you connect more than one device to the router it will intermittently drop your signal and disconnect every device on the router. Very rude customer service in India.
Summary: Net Gear is knowingly selling you a defective product. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. Save yourself a lot of time and money if you are going to attempt to connect more than one device to this router as it will drop your signal every 5 - 30 minutes with no known firmware upgrade to resolve the issue. The tech support will not admit to this and will make you re-install the network several times. Ask for the United States customer service department in CA if you hope to get any resolution to the problems you will experience with this defective equipment. First time buyer of Net Gear - and my Last Time as a buyer of Net Gear products. Who on this Earth sells product that they know is defective with no known way of resolving the issue? They cost me a Saturday and a work day and a couple of evenings of trouble shooting a problem that they are already aware of.

"Nice and simple to hook up" on by Tim De Lord
Pros: East Setup, and Tech support was nice, and understanding, when having any questions.
Cons: Tech support is ONLY 90 Days, afterwards, one must pay. LAME!!!
Summary: This is the first time I am not using a Linksys router, so, still trying it out. I purchased the WNDR330 Wireless / Router. It seems to work good. But time will be the true test! Again, other then the short tech support, so far so good.

"cnet evaluation was flwed" on by guanabara22
Pros: operates on b/g/n at 2.4 GHz band or B/G at 2.4 and n at 5 GHz
Setting the unit to operate at 2.4 Ghz only makes it work and support all 802.11 b/g/n sgtandards at the same band.
Clean and simple straight forward configuration layout.Cons: nothing. I don't need USB. I don't need gigabit speeds. 100MBPS is already a superfast speed for direct ethernet connection. If you use wireless connection and 802.11n your speed is 250MBPS. So for the price I consider no cons exist
Summary: Save lots of bucks and get it fast .
I got a recertified model at tigerdirect.com for $39. Savings will be some dinners. -
"Same problems as everyone else!" on by sdud22
Pros: It's in the trash!
Cons: Drops constantly. Draft N doesn't work very well and then disconnects and has to be manually reconnected every time the computer goes into hibernation.
Summary: Horrible. Buy something else. Exercise our power as consumers.
