Belkin Connect N150 Wireless N Router

 (24 customer reviews)

Just purchased this Belkin wireless N150 as my old Lynksis router failed on me after 6 years of good use. I hooked the router to the modem and computer and plugged it in - it recognized it immediately and everything was great on he direct connection to our desktop. I then fired up the laptop and it recognized the new router right away - after entering the security password (taped to the side of the router in the box) I was up and running on my laptop through the wireless signal.
I have your basic 1000 sq foot above ground ranch. I wanted to see the connection and signal that I would receive in the opposite corner of our finished basement. Took that laptop down there and full strength.
I have only had it up and running for about an hour but so far couldn't have been any easier to hook it up an get online.

I bought this router to stream Netflix to my TV via a Roku box. It was extremely easy to set up and there were no problems with streaming the videos. I mention this because the first router I bought, a D-Link, simply didn't work for this. After spending about 9 hours talking to about 15 people from Roku, Netflix, D-Link, and AT&T, I finally found someone who knew what the problem was. He said D-Link routers, while not necessarily bad, had certain issues that prevented my Roku box from being able to access Netflix servers.

Who knew a router could change your life? I'm an idiot when it comes to computers. I've never been able to connect wirelessly with this computer until I connected this router. Seriously, I had two computer folks attempt in the past. No dice. When it wouldn't connect wirelessly with this Belkin router, a "Belkin is attempting to fix" window popped up and two seconds later, I was connected wirelessly.

Our cable/dsl dude told us Belkin makes the best routers, I'm happy I listened to him. This router rocks! It was so easy to get this thing going. I put in the set up CD, clicked next a few times and entered the Network Name and Password from the enclosed card and I was on. I love Belkin. Thank you!
