Netgear seemed like a decent brand but noooo, they had to waste my time with this terrible product
Binding a device to a fixed IP address doesn't work as well as it did in the Tomato firmware on the Belkin, but seems to take hold eventually
Netgear used to be a reliable brand and updates were never an issue for me, but it seems like they’ve either layed off the wrong software engineer or provoked them into leaving, as their products don’t seem sound software wise.
I had old version of this that lasted YEARS with no issues, but new version is not dependable, not sure I can trust this brand anymore, reminds me of faulty Belkn routers.
I asked him why would I spend more on tech support than the router was worth and just spend that money on a brand new and improved router, but he assured me it was normal for routers to need this reconfiguration
Got the modem in fine, but the speed is horribly slow on wireless.
This is a 2GB router, not 5GB...which will slow down the download speed on your speedtest if you live in an apartment building with other people sharing your channel (google it)***I had bought this router to support my TWC Spectrum up to 100mpb internet plan
I went to use this reconditioned router with my Fios internet and the Verizon guy tested it and told me it wasn't working properly, which my husband and I had figured out, because the speed was so slow.
Good speed, signal strength good, data transfer via wifi ok.
Great price, easy to set up, good distance and great speed
Wasted many hours resetting and troubleshooting to finally realize that it's simply a poorly designed router that can't hold a solid WIFI connection.
A hard reset on the router resolved this issue, however
But keep in mind you may need to do the 30/30/30 hard reset afterwards.
Purchased at a local store and MANUF SUPPLIED PASSWORD DIDN'T WORK!Unplugged, reset, etc. Tried to call for support (which you can't do without registering - which requires more info than applying for a
Rather, the point is to provide a reliable source of frustration, as innumerable resets and a series of firmware upgrades have afforded a total of approximately 11 minutes of internet connectivity
Great almost t he bets for Spectrum Time Warner Modems.
Netgear customer service tried to sell me a service plan and I balked and stated that I had read about this common ploy by this company.
Very impressed with Amazon's customer service to quickly replace the defective product one day after I called to complain about the previous new defective product I received!
It just sucks because until then, I won't have a router and this process could take a week or so.tl;dr: customer service takes forever but they'll help you out a lil, and maybe I just had a really useless router (for the second time now) but it was frustrating as heck
And also customer service is terrible like a lot of other reviews have stated!
I found more people having similar issue not getting more than 30 mbps over wifi
I don't recommend this cheap product if your building is an apartment and there are other people sharing your channel...which slows down the speed from a router that only supports 2GB and not 5GB.
I would like to know why some people have terrible problems with some models while others don't have any
While many people have reported problems with the Genie app and inability to connect, I found no useful solution
