Advantages: Ultra simple to set up, Compact slim design Disadvantages: Pitiful length of Ethernet cable supplied
...find myself writing about the Netgear ADSL Firewall Router DG834 thanks to my Sister asking me to set up a network on her two computers so that her AOL broadband connection could be shared. Of course therein lay the first issue, AOL is not like other ISP`s in that it has up to now been impossible to sign on with more than one screen-name, but thanks to AOL finally embracing the whole Networking ethos and offering support to a handful of routers there ... ...for I settled on the Netgear DG834 because it seemed to offer the best features at a reasonable price. However, rather than buy it from the AOL recommended retailer for £89.99 I did a little price comparison work and chose Simply.co.uk who were offering the same product for £28 less – always worth shopping around then! ♦What’s in the box?♦
A couple of days later the router arrived and I could finally start to setup the network. Included ...

...of 8.
Overall I found this Netgear product brilliant. I chose this based on the brand being well known and praise elsewhere. It's very easy to use, good looking and has caused me no problems in what I wanted to acheive: succesfully sharing 2Mb between two computers. Highly recommended! ...

Advantages: Very high spec for the price Disadvantages: Instruction manual very poor
I read the other review of this and thought it was excellent. I would like to add a couple of points.
Firstly, I have bought mine quite recently and it is version 2. I don't know the exact dimensions of the earlier one but this is minute. It is about the same size as an average hand, i.e. 6" by 4". It's also very lightweight and you can stand it on end if you want with the supplied widget. It's also a white colour.
I paid around £60 for this and ... ...more. However the other computer in the house is quite a long way from this one and on a different floor with several walls in between. So I decided that wired was best if I decided to connect them up. You can't really tell if wireless will work untill you try.
I bought this one from NickKnows.co.uk and I also ordered 4 extra budget filters at £2.94 each. They work fine and it's probably not worth spending £10 on the high grade ones. You get one ...

...out what went where as Netgear rather cleverly colour coded everything on the router - the grey cable goes into the grey hole, and the yellow cable goes into (rather unsurprisingly) the yellow holes. I say holes, as another great feature is that you get 4, yes, 4 ports so you can easily set up a home network using this.
Once I had everything assembled (which took me about 30 minutes - 20 of which were spent trying to sort out the spaghetti of wires ... ...the CD into the drive. Then I read the instructions. Fortunately I had indeed got everything right. Following the on-screen prompts I inputted my Broadband ID and Password, waited a few moments and VOILA! We were connected.
Because you are networked through the router it serves as an effective firewall, meaning that your computer is never detected on the internet - the network stops at the router. So this is really a multi-talented bit of kit.

Advantages: Possibly the perfect wired home router? Disadvantages: Potentially none, but check the review...
...Another reason for buying a Netgear router is the ridiculously easy set up, the web interface is generally excellent. No problems running the unit with either Windows XP or Ubuntu Linux. Both operating systems are happy to share the internet connection simultaneously. Interestingly, web pages seem to download significantly faster than they did when using a USB modem. This may be because it connects to the PC via Ethernet instead of USB, but it is ... ...Overall I would rate this product very highly, but there is, for me, one very big blot on its record. Periodically the device will drop the internet connection and stubbornly refuse to reconnect unless it and/or the PC are rebooted. Having searched around on the internet this seems to be a notable fault; the device connection status alternately reports "LCP down" "LCP is allowed to come up", seemingly stuck in some endless loop. In many cases a replacement ...
