Product Works Great, I recommend for most users
Installing my wireless router and WG311T card was anything but simple. However if you follow their instructions explicitly and do everything correctly you will be very pleased with this product.
I'm giving it 4 stars because I encountered a very serious error with my Trend Micro Internet Security. I accidentally turned on the firewall for that program while the router was working. It ended up screwing up my firewalls so bad that I couldn't even access my internet with a direct connection from my Comcast Cable box.
I attempted to uninstall and it would fail halfway through each time. Now it's un-removable without some tricky work with my registry. I rolled back my settings to the prior day and started over with my Trend Micro turned off (it was barely installed anyway) and it worked great.
I get excellent range and speed when paired with the Netgear WG311T wireless card. The security features are also a major bonus. The user friendly menu when you log into your router is also a big plus. If you are a casual user and do not know much about the inner workings of your computer, this product may not be for you. But if you have a handle on the technical stuff, this might be a great product for you. Rating:

firmwire needs to be updated
I bought a WGT624 V3 over two years ago, but almost never used it. Just recently installed Comcast, and linked the router to the modem. I should say it was a very bad product initially, since the comcast speed somehow got slowed down by the router and the router even stopped working randomly. Ever after I manually updated the firmwire to V2.0.26_1.0.1NA, everything appears to be working fine without any problem. Rating:

Piece of JUNK, WASTED MUCH OF MY TIME!
as you can tell by the title, i hate this product, actualy it cannot be called a product even. its so slow, i have an VERY fast DSL connection (around 5mbs), yet my wireless signal is 1/5th the speed of dial up at times. i cant load a single website without waiting five minuts and dirtying my mouth! i hate this junk so much, i am about to break it everytime i use my laptops, but i dont wana spend more money on a router, this junk was $70! the only reason i didnt return it after the first day, (yes the first day), is becuz i lost the reciept. iv been trying out lots of routers to find the best one, but my quest ended wen i lost the reciet, and this is the worst, it barely works! the signal is always so weak, that it just stops working sometimes, (like a gravely injured person drifting in and out of consciouses if u get what i mean), and the router is 15 feet away from me in the room next door! im surprised this site even loaded up, becuz, it usually hasnt in the past. once google tok 2 minuts to load. DONT WAST UR TIME, EFORT, MONEY, AND STRESS AND HEALTH ON THIS F*** JOB!!!!! ITL PUT GREY HAIRS ON UR HEAD! NEGATIVE 5 STARS FOR THIS, AND A DISASTEROUS FATE AND A SPOT ON ENGINEERING DISASTERS ON THE HISTORY CHANNEL BE TO THIS JUNK PRODUCT!!!!!!!!! I HATE IT Rating:

Frustrating set-up, terrible customer service, not mac-friendly
Perhaps I would have had a different experience on a PC, but for the Mac, it's hard even to locate the set-up instructions on the CD. Those instructions are difficult to read and leave out key steps. The customer "service" is that awful, irrelevant and out-sourced. Even though I've set up this router at two other offices before, I have spent hours going in circles this time. I will have to remember to research the quality of support before purchasing electronic devices in the future. |
