Netgear Wireless-N DGN2000

+ I had it set up and working in minutes. Great product. Thanks.

- Nothing negative experienced with this product.

+ Fairly easy to set-up. Just run the wizard and accept the defaults and you should be away. Has all the bells and whistles that you would expect and can support up to 4 SSID's which is very nice. I like the idea that it checks for firmware updates every time you log into it. Wireless range is greatly improved over the 3Com router that it replaces. The wireless side can prove a little more protracted if you choose the change the default values set by the wizard. This router is configurable to the n'th degree and there are a number of parameters that you can change that may have an adverse effect on how it performs. You need to understand about each parameter before you change it from the default. I think that this has led to this router receiving some unfair reviews about wireless performance. Remember that it is an 802.11n warless router and you are going to need an N type card in your computer, smart phone, PDA or whatever to get the best from it. That said, it works fine with 802.11 A/B/G cards.

- two minor grumbles. It isn't wall mountable. You can stand it on it's edge with the feet provided but I really would have preferred the option to wall mount it. Not that much in the way of documentation in the box - its all on CD or the router itself. I prefer something that I can leaf back and forth through - but that’s just me.

+ Netgear reliability and ease of setup
Compact design
Good web support

- External antenna's cannot be removed (to fit larger ones)
Cannot wall mount
Belkin N1 has better range of signal
No Gigabit ethernet

+ Much greater wireless coverage about the house, compared to my old 54g

- As with all routers, runs quite warm

+ When running it's performance is good

- Seems to be runnign very hot and frequently needs re-booting

+ Easy to use,good strength

- I still suffer with ip clashes,so have had to give evrything seperate ip addresses,no proper port forward settings!

+ Easy set up

- Unclear once set up on selecting other connection devices. Ie when I first tried to access from the laptop it couldn't find the network, it was only once I had set the wsp passwords it found it so a little confusing there.

+ Easy menu driven setup. Having a separate on/off switch is handy for this. Does come with feet so you can stand if vertically which keeps it cool. Does improve internet range a little for a bigger improvement you need a newer wireless adapter.

- Does need occasional rebooting if internet performance is bad.

+ Good constant reception throughout the house-a bungalow
