Not 4 homeplugs
Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It's solid and runs cool. Classy look.
Cons: The USR8001 WILL NOT WORK with homeplugs. (ethernet to powerline adapters.) However, the USR5461, USR9107 and USR8003 works with homeplugs! USR online tech support does not specify the reason why, but just says that NONE of their routers are designed to work with homeplugs! T...

very upsetting
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Powder coated finish looks nice. Print server worked flawlessly.
Cons: Worked great for about a month. Very sloooooow though. Started to lock-up, had to reset it several times. Lately, I had to reset it hourly to continue my internet connection. It only gets worse from there. I downloaded the new firmware update v1.1 and now its comp...

really put the "G" in doG
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Easy setup. Allows all operations for firewall, including port ranges.
Cons: Will run for a day or two and then die. Hard reset is all that will bring it back. My SSH connections to work get dropped every 6 hours or so. And.... it-is-really-really--s-l-o-w. WWW browsing and name resolution take forever, compared to my ancient Linksys rou...

Printer compatibility issues

Ownership:
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Comments: I recently purchased this router, and have had good luck with its basic features. I was able to plug everything in and get it working fairly quickly.
I have had serious problems with the integrated print server, however. I have a USB printer that is about 3 years old, and it is apparently not compatible with this print server. The worst part about this is that the product d...

Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: 5v switching power supply
Cons: none
Other Thoughts: Before it was my impression that the 8001 would not work with homeplugs. However, I have since found out that the 5V switching P.S. cannot be located too close to the homeplug as it interferes with the signals. This is also true with other routers or modem -rout...

disappointed
Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: metal case, excellent Newegg customer service for return.
Cons: Installation is a sham without XP, skimpy documentation. Horrible toxic odor emitting from electronics within.
Other Thoughts: There is no step-by-step setup software or configuration. If you don't have XP, your out of luck.
