Top Notch Router

"Best router I ever bought. I had two Netgear routers that were terrible....wouldn't hold a connection and constantly had to reset. They now both reside in the local landfill.

"My girlfriend and I bought this router about a month and a half ago and after two weeks it just died. All the lights just stayed lit up and nothing would work. We wanted to return it to the store but didn't have the receipt because we were told at the store that it was very reliable.

"Everyone that put one star is technologically stupid. I set this up when years ago when I was 15 years old and i was ok. The security part was a little annoying at first but I found out how to do it. Setting it up without security is easy. One of the best ways to set it up with security is to se …"  Read Full Review »

"I bought the router about a year ago; since I had switched to cable internet service, and I wanted a home network set up. I have done some research on the router and have found some varied information. It seems that this is a very popular router, however, it is very easy to hack.
