Netgear WGR614 Refurbished Wireless-G Router

Product Review

The WGR614 is a very attractive unit about the size of a small paperback with a silver exterior and rounded edges. An included plastic stand lets you stand the router on its edge to take up less space. The WGR614 makes it easy for even a novice to set up a wireless network: just plug the included Ethernet cable from your internet connection into the router and insert the included CD into any computer on the network, which will provide step-by-step instructions. The WGR614 employs a web-based interface for configuration, and the router will automatically do the initial setup by getting your DNS settings and determining your IP address. The firmware is also upgradeable via the web interface so you can be sure your router will always be up-to-date.

This router has been running well for over a week. My older Netgear router had a bulging capacitor which caused it to make a high pitched noise. The only draw back is that the router does not come with an instruction manual, or an installation CD. If you are familiar with setting up a router, this is not a problem. You can easily find the default username and password online. There really isn't anything to setup except for the wireless setting, and changing the password. The router is setup to work right out of the box. Given the price, I am happy with the purchase.

the title pretty much says it all. no instructions, but super easy to set up. which is saying something coming from someone who is technologically disabled. buy it.

Loaded DD-WRT and it works great! I would definitely recommend this router. I reset it every once in a while, but only when it appears to be slowing down.
