There is no worse headache than the constant dropped internet connection. Belkin is the worst waste of money I have spent on internet connection. Please Buy Linksys or anything but Belkin.
It's ok - I've had it a while and it is still kicking. When it is working it is fine. It does lock up on a somewhat regular basis - few times a week - so it requires frequent unplugging and plugging back in. The cord and socket are robust enough to take it. Customer service does not seem to be US based, but it is ok. I had better luck with Linksys.
this router works perfectly sending & receiving signals from it's downstairs locations to upstairs where i typically use my laptop.quick & easy setup
Though it took about 1 1/2 hour to setup(it's my fault not to follow the instructions, with overconfidence), once setup, it works without any issues. I check the voltage from power adapter, it shows pretty less than what it should deliver. Then called customer support, they asked me to few tests, all failed. I did my own tests and failed. I have Dell laptop and netgear has compatibility issues with dell laptops. So, I would say, setup is easy if followed the instructions correctly.I use my laptop in various rooms of my house, never fails.
Signal never drops to zero. By the way, why I chose Belkin againt Netgear is for one good reason. I bought it a year ago. They have customer support and sales in India too. And I forgot to power off 3 days ago, to find it dead by next day evening. Used a different adapter, now the power light glows but nothing else seems to be glowing. Now, I have ordered the same for a friend of mine from Amazon.
All failed to work with netgear.I usually power it off when I don't use it. We have to use blue cable when asked to use blue cable and I used the other cable that I had, it caused the issue. They asked my details to send an e-mail confirmation for a replacement, they did it in 3 days. I saw it with at least 3 models Dell Latitude 610, 620 & 630. I used to forget yet times. That's a fantastic service from Belkin. I will recommend this product.
Im having to do it every two days. First year was fine. I have owned this for over a year. I've heard ppl say try changing the channel from auto to a static channel, that doesn't work, because mine has always been on a static channel and it is still doing it. After that I started loosing signal for no reason. The only way to get it back was to do a hard reset. Basically the router is done. Save yourself a headache and extra $$ and buy a good router or you will be shelling out even more $$ replacing this one every year.
