    • While I find that frustrating, it doesn't compare with one that loses its wireless connection a several times a week, and the only way to get it back is to unplug the router and/or the modem
    • Today; it last a few minutes then all of the wireless things I have at home loose connection
    • Product is defective, connection only works on the 5.0 band and the 2.4 band connects but does not put out an internet signal
