Forget the manual or CD; go right to the Netgear set-up online, and it's step-by-step quick and easy.
haven't had a problem with it since installation. serves the purpose and looks cute. This router is amazing. i haven't touched it once after installation. worth every penny. Very, very simple installation procedure. absolutely no hassles.
There aren't many frills but I didn't need any.I have Comcast High Speed Internet and they basically contend that they should be called for any installation. My desktop is still connected via Ethernet and my laptop connected immediately.
It works beautifully with Vista (my desktop is 32 bit Vista, my laptop is 64 bit). Security set up was a breeze as well.I am well satisfied with this product.
All I wanted was a basic wireless router that would allow me to keep my hard line connection with my desktop and offer a wireless connection for my laptop. The installation CD walked me right through the set up process and it worked beautifully.
I definitely recommend this wireless router to anyone looking for a basic device with a quick set up. This product offered both at a very cheap price.
I decided to give it a try myself and it took me a total of 10 minutes to set up this device (twenty if you include moving junk around on my desk and moving plugs in my surge protector to make room :-) ).
just what I was looking for. Works like a charn. easy set up.
I put in a 26 bit encrypted wep key and disabled SSID broadcasting. But when I used the CD that Netgear included in the router package, it took only 15 minutes to configure everything properly. Moreover, when I stream video wirelessly, the router does not reset itself. One of my laptops is connected via ethernet and the other laptop and my printer (HP 6980) are connected wirelessly.
I have had no luck with routers over the past couple of years. All of this is very easy to do as long as the set up and all changes are done on the computer connected via the ethernet. This was a problem I had with other wireless g routers. But this Netgear WGR614, version 7, has worked like a charm so far.
The speed and range of this router are excellent. Netgear even places a wireless router icon on the desktop.I recommend this router highly and only hope it continues to perform the way it has over the past 2 weeks. Initially, I had problems setting up this router. I am using Vista Ultimate on my Dell 1705 and 1520 laptops.
