For the price, this is an excellent product. It works just as I would expect. I have it installed behind a Linksys router and am happy with the speed and signal.

I have AT&T DSL and I bought this to replace the Motorola DSL modem that AT&T gave me (it began to die and would run too hot without a fan). I also bought it to replace a D-LINK wireless router that completely died. Setup was easy (once I found my DSL login/password, which wasn't what I thought it was). Their setup wizard worked fine and the wireless was trivial to set up, even with my older 802.11g laptop using WPA encryption. So far so good; it does both jobs just fine, and I really like reducing the clutter on my computer desk. I took one star off because this box also seems to run a little hot (I think the outside of the chassis is 45-50 degrees C). If there's this much power to dissipate, how about a heatsink or even a fan?

I bought this as a replacement for a 2Wire unit that died, and after about a month, I'm ready to throw it out the nearest window. When it works, it works well. Unfortunately, "when it works" is only about half the time. It has a nasty tendency to spontaneously drop the DSL connection (something which the old modem virtually never did, so it isn't a line issue), and then take anywhere up to a half an hour to reconnect. After running for a while, the underside of the modem is very hot to the touch, so I suspect that the root cause of the problems is overheating of the components. There seems to be some progressive damage to the system over time, as now some other components (such as the WiFi connection) are becoming increasingly flakey.Definitely not recommended.

It is fairly easy to set this thing up, but it is incredibly inconsistent and unreliable. It is constantly dropping the connection and considering I like to watch streaming video on my computer, it makes me want to tear my hair out.

Although this is marketed as an "HD/Gaming" wireless kit, it's important to know what this really is and how to use it.MOST IMPORTANT: This kit isn't a router -- you cannot create a Wireless N network with it alone. It is designed to add to your existing network... often a wireless 2.4 GHz network (commonly 802.11 b/g). This will provide high-speed "802.11n" at 5 GHz so it doesn't interfere with a current b/g network. Any wireless b/g devices (Xbox wireless adapter, PS3 internal wireless, b/g laptops, b/g network cards, etc.) currently used on the network will be unaffected by this addition.HOW THIS WORKS: The kit features two identical units -- one unit will plug into your existing network's router via Ethernet as an "access point", and the other unit will plug into the Ethernet device(s) (Xbox, PS3, computer, etc.) as a "bridge". Once the two units sync, it will behave as if the device(s) plugged into the bridge is hardwired to the network router.Each unit has two Ethernet ports... if you want to plug a 3rd (or more) devices in to the "bridge", you will need to add a switch like NETGEAR FS105 ProSafe 5-Port 10/100 Desktop Switch.TECH NOTE: The Ethernet ports on these devices are NOT Gigabit ports, so even though the wireless N signal can achieve 300 Mbit/s, the fastest speed you will achieve on these devices is 100 Mbit/s. However, this speed is more than enough for multiple HD streams and high-speed gaming.BENEFITS: As mentioned, your current B/G network is unchanged, so any wireless activity using that will remain the same. This kit is not designed to replace that network... just add to it. Any device(s) plugged into this Netgear kit will have greater wireless range and a MUCH faster connection than using the older B/G network.

I used this modem for two days and it never maintained a connection more than 4 hours. In addtion, the DGND3300 is very expensive, overheats easily and comes with poor firmware. Don't buy this modem!

A friend had given us a used router similar to this one, and it lasted us for a while. What I really like was how easy it was to set up the security so that our neighbors couldn't steal our wifi. We get full bars throughout the house and never have any trouble connecting to the internet! The speed is really good, too (granted, I've never used one of the new ultra-mega-fast routers, but it seems okay to me).

I replaced an older WAP for this one. I stayed with Netgear simply because no other vendors provides similar products for the price points.The feature set is not very different from others on the market today, but works very well in my home configuration.This is connected to a separate VLAN on my Cisco ASA5505 and is blocking traffic to other WAP devices connected to it. This works excellent for my two iPhones, PSP, Archos and two laptops which will never need anything more than getting to the internet.

This product is one of the cheapest Wireless USB adapters available. I bought two. Software not included. Requires purchaser go to netgear and download software. I had issues with install on one computer, but I resolved it. Good Deal.

For the first year, I had no problems. Now, I have many flakiness issues reporting by others. I have a strong signal that later drops in the same location. Rebooting the unit seems to get it working again but that is not a solution. I have upgraded to the latest firmware with no correction. I have other netgear products and I'm a fan but not with this product.

I have had a lot of problems with this router. Its wireless connection is intermittent and sometimes totally freezes up, requiring the router and the DSL modem to be rebooted. Also, the wireless connection does not work with Dell laptops for some reason. As a result, I only use it now as a LAN router until I can afford something else. I have upgraded to the latest firmware and that hasn't helped. "Customer service" is Mumbai Hell; the waits are interminable and customer reps are clueless. If you want to use this as a print server, be sure to check for compatability on the website: the number of printers that are not compatible (or just have not been tested, why should they actually go through the trouble of verifying compatibility before advertising it?) is huge. It also has problems with online and LAN games. All my friends are playing Civ IV online with no problems, but my ability to connect has been very spotty (I've never been able to complete an online game). Also, with some LAN games (e.g., Dawn of War, Warcraft III) it will allow certain computers to connect to the game server and not others, without any discernable reason why. Netgear's website is spotty as well: the contact list for ISPs regarding ISP connectivity issues was last updated in 2005. If I'd known I would face these kinds of problems I never would have bought it.I would not recommend this product even if you got it for free; the time and headaches it will cost you are probably much more than what you'll pay for a dependable wireless router/print server. Even as a simple four-port LAN firewall/router it has gaming issues. Look elsewhere, unless you are a masochist.

My internal wireless adaptor on my laptop was dying so I was recommended this product by someone on an online forum. So far it seems to be working fine. The only trouble I had with it was that it seemed like the software for this card and my internal wireless card could not be used at the same time, so I ended up having to uninstall the old wireless card before I could use this one, which was slightly more complicated than I would have liked in terms of setup. But overall can't complain.

I purchased this wireless networking kit after I was unable to find the DLINK DAP1522 access point in stock at Amazon or other retailers. I already have a DIR-655 and thought that going with an all DLINK network would minimize problems. I was concerned that the ethernet port on the Netgear product was only 100MB versus the four (4) GigE ports on the Dlink. I left my DIR-655 in place as the DHCP server on my network and put the Netgear as a supplemental wireless N network operating in an N-only mode. The push button WPA is very easy to use. The over the air firmware update worked flawlessly. Netflix streaming on my TiVo HD works perfect as does streaming to my Vudu. I did have to add my ethernet switch to multiplex the one port on the netgear to my three (3) home entertainment devices (TiVo HD, XBOX 360, and Vudu). In summary:Pros- Cost efficient way to bridge wirelessly to HD capable entertainment devices- Supports adding additional wireless N endpoints to the network- Simple to use push button WPA security- Decent web-based configuration software- 5 GHz bandwidth which is a pro and a conCons- Only 1 non-gigE ethernet port- Signal strength on 5 GHz is not as high as my DIR-655 operating on 2.4 GHz. I haven't run enough tests to determine throughput wirelessly over the 802.11g DIR-655 versus the 802.11n Netgear.

Although, Netgear does make some good products this is one product that should never been shipped out of their warehouse. When it does connect there is a excellent signal, but I have found that when I am running wireless N or any other network signal. The device drops signal for no reason every 10 minutes and reconnects. When playing a game online it will lose connection after 15 minutes and then hang until computer restart.As a company owner and a technician I would recommend, D-link. I think its best and will be my next choice in wireless adapters. Netgear firmware is not that good, linksys is just terrible in quality and performance.Updated: Funny thing after writing this review 2 days later NETGEAR called me up and wanted me to sign a contract with them so I cam promote there products when I'm at a customers location. Or at least sell the their product to a customer when needed. HA! Whats even worse NETGEAR said I would have to pay them a membership fee in order to sell there products? (What a fricken joke) That just shows how money hungry they are and how bad they want there terrible products sold. (Of course I told the guy were he can stick it, I would've made a consideration by my terms. Which would include no membership fee and better commission on their product then what they were offering.)

I banged my head against a wall for hours trying to get this thing to work as a wireless bridge on my network. I already have a plethora of access points, what I wanted was a bridge (especially one with more than one Ethernet port). It turns out that this thing only works with another WNHDE111 (read another guy's review "not a true bridge") -- it's more like a WNHDE111 tunnel, instead of an 802.11n bridge.They need to make it clear that all the talk about buying two of these is not just marketing speak for "buy more of our products" -- there's a requirement to buy two.There is no excuse for this product not operating as a bridge with other equipment. I have an 802.11g bridge from Netgear (WGE111), and it works fine, why are they playing games with this product?Honestly, I can't be the only person with a pile of equipment that has an Ethernet port, but not wireless (or broken/sub-par wireless, or the desire to use wake-on-lan wirelessly, or some a number of other gotcha situations). I was ready to buy 2-3 of these, if they worked as bridges -- it's back to the search for me. :-(

This is my first wireless-n and gigabit router. So far the speeds are awesome, way better than my AirPort Express. But thats where it ends.CONS:-Set up with a static IP (which I had no idea I had) from basic Comcast cable internet service was annoying. Not plug and play or easy by any means. Apple AirPort, you just plug it in and it works.-Wireless has cut out now a few times. I reset the router and it is back up and running.-WPA works on my Macs, WEP works on my Linux machines, but I cannot for the life of me get them both working on either WPA or WEP together. Again, my little dead AirPort Express did this just fine.-This thing is huge. The biggest waste of space I have seen in a 4 port router in a long time. With its size you should have about 12 ethernet ports in the back and still have room.PRO:-Its fast-Web based admin is nice in that its platform independent. Though, this is the same crap interface from my last netgear from 5 years ago.-The status lights on the front are nice, the useless ones at the top are just that. Wish it was a load indicator or activity or something.-The price is pretty decentAll in all, I might not buy it again. I like it enough to keep it for now (12 hours in) but probably will stay clear next time and most likely not buy a netgear again. I can't believe I would say it but I will take the overly locked down, proprietary software/hardware, Mac requiring, overpriced Apple product over a netgear for simple ease of use and reliability.EDIT:The router no longer works and only did for the first 36 hours. Returning this pile and getting a router that of course costs twice as much, but then again, you get what you pay for.

I replaced my daughters initial Qwest 2-wire DSL modem when it failed after about 2 years. I was a little leary about the install but I had called Qwest and obtained login and password. I used the install disk wizard with Windows Vista Ultimate and 15 minutes later - done. Couldn't be easier. Wireless security set up at same time. Seems to run warm. It was out of stock at Amazon when I wanted it so I ordered from B@H for a little more. It was already loaded with up to date firmware. Deleted network printer drivers (Xerox Phaser 8560) and reinstalled just to be sure no problems (based on previous bad experience with change in router on my home system).

I purchased the 3500 to replace a Netgear WNR834M that went bad after about two years. Although disappointed that the 834 didn't last very long, I liked the speed and range of the unit, as well as the easy installation, and decided that the 3500 would be a good choice.Like my previous router, the 3500 was a snap to set up, and it's fast with excellent range--when it works. Unlike the 834, the 3500 drops my wireless connection on a regular basis, forcing me to unplug it and reboot. Very annoying. I've tried contacting Netgear without success. The company provides email support, but no one seems willing to respond to queries. I went to an online forum for Netgear and read that the company had outsourced customer support to India or Indonesia or someplace like that and that support is now nonexistent, which explains why I've been unsuccessful in getting any help with this problem.Given the above, I cannot recommend this product.

The NETGEAR WNR2000 Wireless-N Router has served me very well over the past few months.I have recently switched from Windstream ADSL service to a Comcast Cable service provider. I had a Netgear Wireless N ADSL Modem Router on my home network, so switching only the wireless router was necessary.I installed this router driver on Windows Vista 32/64 versions and Windows XP 32/64 versions without a single problem. Just follow the quick install guide and you will be up and running in thirty minutes or less.I strongly recommend the Netgear RangeMax DualBand series of wireless adapter for each device on your network. Other brands will work but do not always offer dual band signal throughput.The NETGEAR WNR2000 Wireless-N Router has a large single pushbutton on the front display panel for easy broadcast of SSID info to configure other devices on your network.I am very happy with the NETGEAR WNR2000 Wireless-N Router performance over my previous wireless B/G network.

This combo wireless N Router with built in DSL Modem by Netgear sounded like a no-brainer, but I was left with my hair on end when my LAN connection kept getting interrupted (sometimes for hours). Before this I had an AT&T 2Wire before it eventually died. It worked great for 4 years. Never a problem. After spending hours talking to a Netgear customer service rep in India three different times, the woman mysteriously dropped my phone call. Apparently, she didn't know what else to say? I've had the product for a week. A week too long. Save yourself a very big headache. Do not buy this product. Returning today.

First, let me start by saying that I am better than your average Joe with computers. Installation & setup appeared to be easy at first. However, I spent 2 days trying to get it to work. It would not register an IP address and I had all my DSL account info handy. After a 2-hour call with tech support, I was online. However, my laptop was no able to pick up the wireless signal. It kept getting a phantom signal. Long story short, I returned it for a refund and addes a D-link DI634m Wireless N router which i am very pleased with so far.

I have tried each and every netgear pcmcia wireless card, I have come back to this one. All of the more recent ones such as wpn511 (no 't), wg511t,wg511u, and countless others do not perform as well as the wpnt511 Netgear Wireless Adapter. If configured correctly, you will immediately notice a speed increase in your download(and browsing) speed, you can try it on speakeasy.net/speedtest website. This is the deal however, you should try to avoid using netgear's built in utilty for configuring the card. If you Do use the netgear internal utility, look in task mgr with your browser open to a page, but idle. You will notice wpnt511.exe is a bit of a resource hog, using about 9000kb of memory. If you are familar with windows internal zero config utilty, use that instead with this card, you will not see that resource hog wpnt511.exe in task mgr any longer. By the way, if you have successfully selected and are able to use windows zero config utilty, go to start, run, type msconfig in the run box then hit enter. Go to the startup tab on the rt that comes up with the system config utility, make sure wpnt511.exe in Unchecked, if it is not, uncheck it, hit close, then reboot, put the check mark in the system config utility box so that that window does not appear each time you reboot(check 'do not show this message again') I have purchased this cd from amazon(refurb) for 8.00+ shipping and it works perfectly rt out of the box. (if you do not have the driver install package for this cd, go to netgear.com, type in search box there wpnt511, then cl on support, there is only one driver download for this, download it to your desktop, follow instructions, choose netgear wizard built in utility to scan for open networks if that's your thing, then later on use the msconfig command as detailed here to improve your performance and conserve your memory especially if you are using an older laptop w windows xp and 515 mb ram like myself. Despite its one flaw described above(resource hog) I highly recommend this wpnt511 card is the best card for use with an older p4 or p4m laptop with windows xp pro os. I believe it is still the best of netgear at this date: 6-26-08. Good luck.

This router worked fine for me for a couple of months then started dropping the connection about three minutes after turning on my laptop. After days of searching online and consulting Netgear's technical forums, I could not find a fix for it. There is a seven page thread about this problem on Netgear's own tech forum. It is very telling that this seven page thread does not contain a single reply from a Netgear technician. I have to recommend that buyers steer clear of this product.

tried the netgear to replace my Actiontec DLS modem and router. Big mistake, I follow all the manual instruction of upgrade firmware, input DSL provdier password and name and then no internet, no wireless and after 5 hours of trying to work it out, finally revert back to Actiontec modem and router but my shared landline is completely blown, no dial tone, and the line is busy. Apparently, Netgear modem in setting up the lines did something to my share landline which worked perfectly with Actiontec but now even reverted back to the original modem and router, still no signal from shared landlines.so be careful in upgrading to this product from Verizon. Hopefully, this review will save you some headache and having to call and paid for a Verizon technician to fix the landlines. By the way, I have tried all the tricks in the trade of unplugging the phone lines ,recycling the router and modem. so now, I have only DSL and internet and no landlines. Setting up a dsl modem and router should not this difficult.
