Received product, no installation CD received, had to go to the website, spent two days trying to get it to work. Ended up going and spending $50 on a new Belkin at Walmart and it works great!!

Let me start by saying that my experience with this router was horrible.
My initial impression was favorable: setting up the router was easy and snappy, the connection wizard "just works", the speed and range are great, it looks pretty in the pictures...
But... the reliability of this router is absolutely non-existent. I've had netgear routers before and they tend to crash every few months (like most routers in this price range; a minor hassle), but this specific product takes the art of crashing to a whole new level. I managed to crash it over 20 times during the 1 day and a half that I have owned it. Surfing the web one page at a time, and checking one email account worked fine. But try some slightly heavier net usage, a few simultaneous web connections (i.e. tabs), medium file transfers, etc., and this thing refuses to play and jumps into comatose mode-TM (a netgear patent). It crashes in both wifi and wired mode, under all the settings that I tried. Ultimately I had to throw it out the window, when it turned into a UFO with cheesy blinking blue lights and flew away into some some other unfortunate person's home and made their wifi experience utterly miserable.
Probably most *very* light web users would not experience a problem with this router, and if that's you and you can get this one on the cheap, it'll work. For the rest, stay far far away, it's not worth the frustration.
 Finally my PS3 is online! September 28, 2008

I had a standard Netgear WirelessG router (WGR614) and have been trying for weeks to figure out why my Playstation 3 couldn't connect wirelessly. My computer is upstairs and my PS3 is downstairs, kittycorner in my 1200 square foot condo...duh! The extended range of this unit is exactly what was needed. The Netgear onscreen menu is intuitive and my place is completely covered for internet now...yay!!!
Fast Connection! Looks Nice Too! September 18, 2008
This is a great router. I used it in my apartment but gave the password to my friend who lived 2 floors above be and he used it too! We even ended up just splitting the internet bill and shutting off his internet to save money!
The connection is super fast and can handle lots and lots of machines. I have 5 wireless devices in my bedroom that use it and it never seems to slow down.
Great buy! Strong signal!!!
 Pretty Good September 16, 2008
The only problem I have had with our wireless set up using this router was having to switch to WEP so my son could use it with his Nintendo DS Lite. I had to re-configure my laptop's wireless card (be sure that you have the latest drivers and SW -- I didn't). I had to reduce the maximum speed down to 11 Mbps, so I am not planning on doing any printing through the network until I get a different router for my son to use. It uses a browser based interface so its pretty easy to deal with. I have yet to get the Wii to adjust to the new settings. Through-put is fine as our cable modem is only like 6 Mbps anyway.
