Packed with features, excellent value for money

Advantages: Packed with features, excellent value for money
Disadvantages: Coverage A Bit Poor

...the website is that this Acer router comes with a free PCMCIA laptop wireless card in the box so for £35 this is excellent value for money. The router is small, light and packed with features. You can add mac filtering for both wireless and wired clients, wep and features an activity log. There is an option to hide the ssid although this does not seem to work. Also it states on the box the coverage is up to 300m however sitting in the room below ...
..."low" signal strength and a connection of 2mbps on my computer which is pretty bad since the maximum should be 108mbps. I can pick up my 2 neighbours wireless lan a lot stronger than my own. I haven't received any disconnections yet whilst connecting with my 2 computers so the connection seems quite reliable. If you don't have a huge house or lots of brick walls then this wireless router would be great. ...

Use In Car

Advantages: Works with both 3G modems I have
Disadvantages: None found!

I use this to game online, ANYWHERE, simple connect the 3G dongle which has the best reception, link my DSi and I'm NEVER board again! Works with ALL Wi-Fi devices and unlike the Mi-Fi or Novotel units I can connect as many Wi-Fi devices as I like - the others are restricted to just 5!! Would reccommend to anyone - EVERY ONE should own one! The set up is VERY simple, litterally connect the 3G router to the mains (Or use battery power once charged), ...
...chosen Wi-Fi device search for "Zoom" as the wireless ID and connect - with ease - every time! The default is set up with no wireless security however, if you wish to set this up you connect the 3G router to the PC via Ethernet, add the settings once - then they are saved for good! Simple! ...

A Very Long Name For Something That Just Sits There And Works!

Advantages: Highly configurable
Disadvantages: That bloody light

The Netgear Rangemax Dual-band Wireless-N Router WNDR3300 – phew, there, I’ve said it. In reality, it’s a smart gloss black and silver slab about the size of a paperback with lots of pretty lights, the more of these that flash the cleverer you are – a maxim I’ve stuck by ever since dial-up modems!. What, you mean you want more? Give me strength – it’s only a bit of computer kit, get a grip. OK, OK, here goes. My existing Linksys wireless-g router ...
...of your wi-fi transmitter) from NETGEAR to something more meaningful to you. If you don’t, there’ll no doubt be someone out there who knows that if it’s still called NETGEAR, then it’s ‘10p to a bag of horse ordure’ that its logon\password is still ‘Admin’ and ‘Password’, the upshot of which is to give a stranger access to your wi-fi encryption, or worse still, lets them hi-jack it so you can’t even use it yourself! Of course, changing the latter ...

Ciso Routers Rock!

Advantages: It comes with Customer Support phone numbers as well as online help
Disadvantages: None

...so we bought the Cisco Linksys router. It was SO easy to set up. We just hooked it right into our cable modem and then reset everything. It runs like a charm, and they even have both written instructions as well as online help. We called the 1-800 number and they talked us through the set up. It was SO easy. I HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone who needs additional lines for their computers! There have been absolutely NO problems with the router ...

Great Wireless Router

Advantages: Quick speeds
Disadvantages: Price

I have had this wireless router for a few months now and I think that it is amazing. To be honest only one of my laptops has Wireless-N enabled but the main selling point was the number of aerials. May be stupid but I needed high coverage throughout my house and the picture coupled with the information and the reviews I read lead me to believe that despite the price this wireless router was the one that I would require. Connectivity - Within 30 minutes ...
...is TalkTalk and please note that this version of the router does come with a modem and works with ASDL but not cable so please check your type of internet connection in advance. Speed - With wireless - N I easily achieve 108mbps and even when I am using wireless B/G I still get great speeds and coverage on my laptop and not a dead spot around. Overall this is a great wireless router but before I end this review please remember to use a decent level ...
