A Work Horse by thesonofbatman on cnet.com Mar 14, 2012
I often wonder how much this little thing can handle. I mean, I bought this a year ago to replace my Lynksis, Hooked up WIRED to it a desktop, 2 Xbox360 and a Samsung blue ray player (after it stopped working wireless with a 3rd party dongle after update). ...
 
Great Basic N Router by JABBA on newegg.com Oct 8, 2011
Everything is great except the fact it only has a 10/100 switch , not gigabit. So I wouldn't bother hard wiring into this thing. I just use it to add another network in the house SOHO. It works great for netflix and things like that. As far as gaming ...
 
Excellent unmanaged switch for a home/small business... by zhuchok on pricegrabber.com May 22, 2008
I installed this switch as a replacement for an older NetGear 16-port 10/100 auto-sensing switch, which has been in trouble-free service for about 4 years. This device is used on a small network of 8 computers, 3 network-based printers, and a server. ...

A Total Scam by Komotez on cnet.com Jun 21, 2012

My Last Netgear Purchase by Bill on newegg.com Jun 5, 2012
I am not a network guru, but I have built desktops, setup networks, and provided tech support for over 25 years. Usually I can research the Web well enough to solve issues. When I can't, I expect some level of competency from the manufacturer. In these ...
 
Bad router; worse tech support by H. Rao "harry" on amazon.com May 12, 2012

Bunk by D. Kopp on amazon.com Jun 18, 2012
I don't remember why I bought this router, but I wish I hadn't. I think I paid $80 for it too. I get 11mps right next to it, and 7mps if I walk ten feet away, then 1mps in my bedroom. 'RangeMax' is a complete joke. Needs to be unplugged frequently. Garbage.

It worked like a champ first time! It does get hot, so keep this in mind by providing good ventilation...Overall, I am very happy with this device...It might be nice if Netgear included mounting ears that allowed this switch to be racked more easily, but this is good enough...

The only conclusion i can draw is that the device is broken less than a week after purchase and after only being re-connected to the pc a few times...not ideal for huge homes, two story homes, or if you desire your wi-fi to reach out into your back yard( wich in itself isnt such a bad thing, that way you wont get hacked...I recommended it to all my friends...
