 What more could I ask for? December 21, 2007
I've had this router for 3+ years. Bombproof. Never had a single problem that could have remotely been traced to this router. I really don't know what else to say.
Full disclosure: I work for MS. But if something doesn't work, I dump it. And this thing has been nothing short of perfect.

I am in the I.T. industry. When I get home the last thing I want to do is mess with my home equipment. I have installed over 15 wireless networks for friends and family. Everytime its a linksys or a netgear and they are a complete and total task to install.
Enter the Microsoft broadband router. I have had it for 5 years now and it has worked flawlessly. My only issue is I cant find it in stores anymore because Microsoft for some reason decided to stop manufacturing them. Its a shame because I would recomend this to anyone. If you dont want to constantly wrestle with setting up epuipment this is the router for you.

Good functioning router for local, home use. Could be a bit challeging to integrate with internet provider/modem, depending on what you use. Don't expect to get top data transmission; too many variables within each network system.
 Bad router January 8, 2007
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've had this router for a while now and have tolerated it for far too long. The firmware is no longer being updated and Microsoft blatantly ignores the large amount of customers who have complained for 2+ years about connectivity problems. Google the model number for yourself to see common complaints.
It boils down to this unit being unstable. Connections will drop frequently. Windows mobile devices in particular have a hard time connecting. And in general the device does not respond nicely when you disconnect/re-connect.
Be sure to read one of the reputable online review sites before you buy (this applies to any computer device)!
Great router, too bad it's gone. July 7, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I've read all the negative reviews and don't know quite what to make of it. I and several colleagues here at a major aerospace firm have been using this router for at least 2 years with no hitch. Installation was easy, connection both wireless and direct work flawlessly. This may all be a moot point now, but we who like this great working product just had to put our two cents in to defend a good and well thought out working router.
