Rating: 1 (out of 5) Summary: Dead after1minute Comments: The router was super easy to setup. I set the WAP encryption, set the channel ID, setup the share name, and restarted the router in only a couple of minutes. Too bad it only worked for 1 minute after that before going into a coma where it did not respond to anything. I even tried doing a hard (paperclip) reset, to no avail. Oh, and it appears and feels like a super-cheap router. It's quite flimsy. |
Rating: 4 (out of 5) Summary: Product is working fine in a 2 bedreoom appartment. Comments: I purchased this router 1 month back and till now there is no problem in connectivity. I had installed it in a hall and can access internet from any room.Setting up secure network is also easy.I would endorse this product a must purchase in a given price range. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Cheap & Easy Comments: A great & cheap wireless router. Setup was a lot easier than the Linksys it replaced. A small foot print. Has worked well and can be accessed any place in thid small 1000 square foot house. The full size laptop, the MSI Wind & HP-2133 netbooks accessed without any problems. can not go wrong for the price. |

Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Works Flawlessly Comments: This is an excellent product from Belkin. I did have problems setting it up and initially I thought it was because I had Windows Vista. This router's instructions are not really for Windows Vista since it was released before Vista. I ended up installing it on a laptop with Windows XP and still had problems, which led me to discover the real issue was my cable modem not working at the time of installation (sometimes you need to just restart your cable modem and the wireless router so they sync up with each other, too). Once the modem came back, the router worked just fine on e laptop with wireless that I logged on with, including the1with Vista. I use the router predominantly with a Vista laptop and never have had any problems since setting the router up that were actually related to the router. The only time I experience drops is when my cable modem is not working.
The signal is excellent. I use the router upstairs, and when I take my laptop downstairs the signal only drops1bar however I still surf the net with no complications or drops. I also have my iPod Touch on the wireless network, too, and it works well with that.
The installation CD that comes with it is basically unnecessary, it seems, except for helping you set up a security password so others can not get on your network. You can hook computers without wireless into the back of the router, allowing for their connection to your cable modem. The connections of all our computers are basically as quick as they were before.
So far, this has been a great purchase--no problems at all. I have had irritating routers before, including my last1from Belkin that seemed to need to be reset e so often in order for my laptop to connect to the internet. Not with this router--money well-spent for a cheaper router that still gets the job done. |
