A satisfied customer,

This review is from: Buffalo Technology AirStation High Power N300 Wireless Router & AP WHR-HP-G300N (Black) (Personal Computers)
I bought this item based on the feedbacks. I'm an IT guy. The setup and configuration was extremely easy, I didn't use the CD at all. I have my VOIP phone, Wii, 5 computers, wireless Epson ARTISON 800, netflix boxes all running at the same-time and using Wireless "G". I'm rejoicing over the optimal performance. I'm a satisfied customer and extremely happy that I decided to make the purchase.
This product has eliminated the frequent disconnects I was having and my wife even commented on that the videos on youtube are no longer "stop and go". I can talk on the phone, watch netflix, kids can play wii, and the wife can watch youtube movies at the same time. I highly recommend this product.

February 11, 2010 D. Ho (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Buffalo Technology AirStation High Power N300 Wireless Router & AP WHR-HP-G300N (Black) (Personal Computers)
Pros:
Great signal strength. (See full review below)
Small in size. (About 5.6 x 5 x 0.9 inches not counting antenna or stand)
Color and smoothness matches my Playstation 3?
Cons:
Manual setup can be confusing if you don't know what you are doing. (Lucky I'm good with technology)
The shape of the AC plug may or may not be a problem.
Very light-weight. May tip over if wires have high tension.
Does not have website logging tool like the WPN824.
I purchased this router/AP to replace my Netgear WPN824v2. The Netgear worked great with laptops and computers but constantly dropped connections with my Playstation 3. I bought this based on the reviews of its predecessor, the WHR-HP-G54 which has high ratings. I was not disappointed. I live in a 2 story apartment and the router is in the 2nd floor while my Playstation 3 is on the first. I used to get 80%-90% signal strength on my Playstation 3 with the WPN824 but it kept losing connection...Read more

Nice Access Point but Difficult to Setup,

This review is from: Buffalo Technology AirStation High Power N300 Wireless Router & AP WHR-HP-G300N (Black) (Personal Computers)
BACKGROUND - I'll provide some background so that people can put my comments in context. First, I have what I consider an average understanding of computers and home network technology. I wired my house with a Cat 5e ethernet system. My home network now includes 3 desktops, 1 netbook, 2 laptops, iPods, network printer, network attached storage device (2TB RaidX), patch panel, 8-port switch, router, and cable modem. The patch panel, switch, router, and modem are located in a panel in the basement where all my computer, video, and phone cables originate. With the recent addition of the netbook and ipods, I decided to add a wireless access point for greater mobility. I wanted a device with good range, data transfer capacity, and security. I couldn't care less about "peripheral" features that are often bundled with todays routers such as the NAS capabilities. Keep that in mind with respect to my evaluation of this product.
On a side note, I have operated on Windows XP...Read more
