Using the latest, 802.11n Draft 2.0 technology, the N+ router offers outstanding range thanks to smart MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) technology. This router offers enough range to easily cover most homes or office spaces.
With data throughput of up to 300 Mbps, the N+ Router can handle media-intensive applications that take up large amounts of your bandwidth. The router will easily handle high-demand network activity such as streaming music and HD video, playing games online, downloading large files, and making Internet phone calls, all without hiccups or slowdowns.
If even this isn't fast enough, the N+ router also has four gigabit Ethernet ports for ultra-fast wired connections.
Backwards Compatibility for Ultra Convenience
The N+ router is backwards compatible with all Wireless-G and 802.11b networks and devices, which means that you can continue to use your current computers and peripherals that are on the older standards.
Keep Your Network Safe and Private
With support for Wi-Fi Protected Security, you can ensure that your wireless network is safe and secure with a single button push. In addition to Wi-Fi Protected Security, the N+ router also supports 256-bit WPA/WPA2-Personal, and 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption to ensure that your data is protected.
Easily Share Storage with Your Whole Network
The router features a USB port that allows you to connect a USB storage device, such as a hard drive or thumb drive, and share its contents with all the computers on the network. With an attached storage device, you can store music, videos, and photos in a central location for everyone on the network to share and access.
Elegant, Informative Design
Featuring an elegant and smart vertical design, the N+ Router saves space and looks good on your desk. LED icons let you know at a glance the status of the connection, if security is enabled, if USB storage is being accessed, and other useful information. There's also a "Download Speedmeter" Bar of LEDs that constantly measures the download speed of your network.
The Belkin N+ Router is backed by a 1-year warranty and includes free 24/7 technical support.

After spending days off and on with Belkin Tech's, their conclusion was a defective unit.
The device after 6 to 8 hours would drop the internet connection and the wireless never did work correctly. Had to go through the entire setup again to get it to work for another 6 to 8 hours.
The device does have an easy setup, but it appears they have a way to go with their hardware and/or software.

I went from a D-Link router to this one and have nothing but praises for its ease of set-up, speed and reliability. I have had no issues with any of my components jacking into my home network. Speed is great for everything (online gaming, Skype, file-sharing, media streaming...).
My guests and family who have WiFi-enabled gadgets are easily able to jack into my network (once they have the security key, that is).
Excellent choice for a home network.
-The CD setup was VERY EASY and fast too. I think I was up running in ten minutes.
-The lights on the front are nice. I just noticed my internet down, and the blue "globe" light was flashing. A reboot of the modem fixed the internet.
-The throughput is FAST (as fast or faster than my old gigabit router)
-It is 3 weeks and no router reboot yet.
-It works with our WII out of the box
The only negative is the CD setup leaves your login connection open and logged in without a password. I had to go to 192.168.X.X and set an admin password to secure it. Interface was pretty simple to figure out.
