Excellent router Purchased this router through Amazon on a Saturday and got on Tuesday. At the time I bought this router there was a [$$] rebate promotion going on so I was able to get this at a very good price. I had thought about getting a Linksys router but had read about so many problems people were having with it, such as, unable to configure, humming noises coming form the unit, poor customer service, and only a 1-year warranty! I hooked up this Netgear RP614 to my PCs, one using Windows 98se, the other wi...

Worked Without A Hitch Setting up the Netgear router to share our DSL line was terribly easy. The directions are clear and set-up is quick and simple. It includes a CAT5 cable and a little vertical mount which makes the router look very slick. You don't have to install any software or drivers; there is just a simple test procedure which takes a couple of minutes. The Netgear physically behaves like a server, and it has some solid security features. Also, installing the router actually solved problems that we orig...

Great Low Priced Router, Easy setup I picked this router up after doing some research on customer reviews on different brands/models. I was deciding between this RP614NA and the FR114P (also Netgear). I finally decided on this one after it ended up in my Amazon gold box with an additional discount. The router setup took about 20 minutes for 2 PC's sharing AT&T Broadband Cable. (One XP and one Win 98SE). Another 10 min and I had the network up and going (file/printer sharing). Probably would have went even quicker if I had more net...

major flaws As other reviewers have noted, the router is very easy to set up. However, it has two major flaws which would keep me from recommend this unit:1. The router randomly locks up several times a week. It requires a power off then on in order to start working again. 2. The router times out idle TCP session after a few minutes, and there is no way to disable or change this timeout. After the timeout the connection is dropped and has to be re-established. This is a *major* annoyance for people lik...

The Best If you've got a broadband cable modem and 4 or fewer computers to hook up to the main feed, this is the router you want. I had a Linksys router, and for 4 years thought, this is as fast as it gets?
On a hunch, I decided to try a new router, and chose this model. Hookup was EASY. There is a CD that comes with the unit, and the CD tells you what to do, step by step. Not only that, it performs tests each time you perform a step, to see if you did it right.
My broadband speed i...

Wow, I can't believe it was that easy! I'm very surprised with the ease-of-use capability with this cute little router. Performance is amazing, with better specs than most routers. And the looks are perfect for the home, it looks like a sardine can with easy-to-read light indicators.I tried this router with my PC, XBox, and Dreamcast (yes, I will always love this console no matter what people say), and they work perfectly online. Once I receive the PS2 Network Adaptor, then I will test it as well, but I don't foresee any problem...

Greatest Wired Router under $100 This is the fastest router you can buy fro the price. The only downside, like almost any router under $100 is that it has a [junky] NAT firewall built in that doesn't allow some types of direct connections like AIM file transfer and direct connect. But, if you need the fastest wired router under $100...this is your choice. I've tested about 10 different routers and this smokes them all. Make sure to head over to netgear.com and get the lastest firmware for it as soon as you start using it be...

Small, slim, sleek design..... but powerful It was out of my expectations to see how small this platinum router is. Fits almost anywhere. It is just a fraction of the size of a Kingston router I used to have. Comes with a vertical stand. Installation of this baby was a breeze. Works fine with anyone who is not familiar with networking. Installation guide and the setup screen explains everything. Trully worth every penny!

Very unstable router The RP614 would be a nice router if it could just stay running. Unfortunately if you put any kind of load on it, the router dies. Picture a situation where you're halfway across the world and you need to access your home PC - but your router crashes and there is no way to remotely reboot it. That's what you'll get with the RP614. You may think "I don't put much load on my router" but you can crash it just by running a peer to peer application, or doing a few simultaneous downloads, or ...
