 excellent product July 7, 2008

read the reviews, mostly good so went for it, made the right choice. I have had this router for about a month and it has been no problem. From taking it out of the box it took no more than 10 minutes to be up and running, very easy to set up. I am no computer geek but I had no problem setting it up and have never had a wireless router before, i`ve only just got a laptop...5 stars from me..
easy peasy to set up! June 21, 2008

I like to read reviews before I make electronic purchases, and Amazon is one of the best places to go for reviews.
Based on what I read here, I purchased this router with the free delivery option on Monday evening, it arrived the following Friday.
Just inserted the setup CD, took my time, read each screen carefully to follow instructions to the letter, and within 20 minutes, I was surfing the net wirelessly!
Signal "excellent" all over the house, not tried yet in the garden, waiting for it to stop raining!
Verdict: recommended!

I'm with Virgin broadband, and bought this bit of kit with a Sweex LW053 WiFi LAN USB 2.0 Adapter to use with my PC with XP. I'm not up to speed with building Networks but got up and running fairly quickly and have had no problems in the 2 weeks I've had this installed.
Very pleased and highly recommended.
Does what it's supposed to! June 6, 2008

After living with a Belkin wireless router for all of one day I got fed up with it constantly dropping the internet connection, which happened 4 or 5 times in this single day. So after reading the reviews on here I decided to purchase the above Netgear router which was effortless to install and set up, has provided a stronger wifi signal than the previous Belkin unit, and has not dropped the internet connection once!
It does exatcly as it says on the tin!
Cracking bit of kit! June 2, 2008

After initially struggling with the concept of which router i need to buy for my Virgin Broadband M package, i settled on this little beauty.
I must say I am extremely please with my choice, and here's why;
1. Easy as pie to set up (including secure network settings).
2. Great range indoors (my house is of medium 3 bedroom size) and outdoors (signal reaches the bottom of my 70ft garden).
3. Great speed and response from my 2Mb connection (browsing and downloading).
All in all I am over the moon. Although I'm at a loss as to why people have been struggling with this product, I suspect people either didn't read guide properly, or they tried to rush the installation process due to its apparent simplicity.
Anyway I digress......Case and point, great product!
