Netgear RangeMax Wireless Router - 802.11b/g with Smart MIMO

Comment:
The router set up very easily and works as advertised. Very pleased with the product.

Comment:
I had no problems setting this up with no experience. I am very pleased with the range and speed.

Comment:
Worked great for a few months then the wireless became unreliable (stopped then started...about 15-20 times an hour). Also, netgear only supplies email support for their refurbs and that is s-l-o-w. Probably just going to get a new router.

Bought it refurbished, changed it twice due to power failure. Really slow interface, but once you get used to it it goes well. PC is directly plugged in has no problems WIRELESS: laptop has no problem book has intermittent at times touch has connects once a month on random occasions. Tried everything, am now buying a real router and will give this one to my mom or something. (probably good for a basic secure wireless setup - plug and forget) The LEDS are annoying, good thing there's a switch to turn those off.

The router installed easily and works great. Communication between my systems is much better and the range is very good. Setting up the forwards and opening ports for programs is very easy. Love the router. Netgear stands behind their products and they work well.

I've purchased several of these at $70.00 - $80.00. You can't beat the price on this well performing and easy to set up wireless router.

This router has been great so far. Simple to use and setup and with 15mbs highspeed, I can get download rates of up to 1mbs plus. Have this in a 1 bedroom apt with WEP security and it is perfect. Definitely a great value

Comment:
Out of the box, plug and play. No troubles. Plenty of power to cover the house. Very happy with the value of this product.

Fast and beautiful looking router. Even though it does not come up with the installation CD, the set up is very easy.Lots of security options and easy to set up. Overall a great product for the price.

Found this router to be very nice for my dorm signal isn't as long as you would think. I live in a large dorm and i can get it half way down the hall but once i leave the building for a smoke i won't get a signal. Hallway is probably about 20 feet and 30 feet to be outside the dorm. It might be because the dorm is brick built... not really sure...But for the price, and being a college student it fits my needs... its good if your looking to have it in a dorm or in a small house.

Got one for my office, liked it so much I'm getting another one for home. Great product, THANKS . Many years of very good service and products!

Was supposed to come with an installation cd. Didn't. Was supposed to be able to download software from NetGear. Wasn't available. Installed it manually, which was actually pretty easy. However, the connection is terrible. It disconnects every minute or two, then reconnects. Very irritating. I'm buying a Linksys to replace this router.

Comment:
works well, reaches all areas of a 3,000 sq. ft home. A bit of a pain to set up because it doesn't come with any set-up software or instructions, but you can figure it out on the internets, took less than 30 minutes to set up.

Comment:
Works just fine. Installation - just to plug in.

Comment:
I've bought two of these Netgear refurbs and they work great, and you can't beat the price, or the Comp USA shipping and service.

Comment:
Shipping was very fast and setup took me a few days because I had no idea what I needed to do turned out I could have set it up in 10-15 minutes.I have only had a computer for about 6 months so I dont know much about them. I have use this router for about 1 month no problems

Comment:
So far I've no problems with this router except that every now and then when you are in its settings trying to set something or change to look at something else it will sit there forever and keep saying Please wait which gets very annoying, unfortantly it cant move that fast, oh well. Its a router, its G, its wireless. Its so far a solid router with alot of features my old Belkin didnt have glad i got it.

Comment:
The setup wizard made installation a breeze. Device is reliable and has a remarkably strong WiFi signal.

Comment:
The terms of these reviews are lacking, Good price, decent router, Lag-gable with video stream on 360 while connected to PC wirelessly, Cheaper than gas, easy setup, some CO. may be hit or miss with refurbs, good luck to those with issues, cheers to those with blue LED networking

Comment:
and easy to set up..

Comment:
excellent value refurb for $20. Got working in 5 minutes without any documentation. Refurb deal ok, but you must find and download documentation from Netgear web site. Range must improved over an old -A -B wireless router.

Comment:
Purchased 2 of these routers for residential set up. The first router was easy to set up, but for some reason I wasnt able to connecct my PS3 wirelessly. Swapped out the router with the second router I purchased and was successfully able to connect my PS3 wirelessly. The other router is being used at another location for wireless internet access only so it wasnt a huge deal that I wasnt able to connect this router to my PS3. Other than that no problem great range and man are these reliable for re certified routers.

Comment:
Used this to replace my old net gear router which I think cost about 3x as much, this one is a great deal.

Comment:
Best price ever, works great for almost a month, am still using it as of now but it takes too long to identify the network.

Comment:
router was easy to setup, has all needed basic functions, great value!
