A couple months ago I unfortunately found myself on the market for a new wireless router, as my existing wireless router ethernet ports were malfunctioning. I selected the RangeMax from NetGear and have been blown away by the product. Not only was the setup wizard easy to go through (I'm not a techie) but the product itself has surpassed my expectations. I'm getting much less performance degradation through the many walls in my house. (2 story) The range of my RangeMax eclipses the range of my old wireless router. I am free to roam to any corner of my house!!!

I's just bougt it 2 weeks ago after check all the network hardwares. It has all normal standard for normal router, one big diffirent is the MIMO technology. It allows your laptop connect wirlessly for long range, it's about more than 100m far from the router and the signal still very good and the connection stable without drop down or lost. Very good router.

Pros: Sexy design, MIMO longer range, easy to setup and use.
Cons: Big, the light could be disturb when you sleep, only use long range with only g standard.

Well, Its say its gives nice range, but i didn't test it with the RangeMax Adapter. But it gives a very reliable and steady signal. Doesn't drop signal when you are far away. I had linksys, which i got from verizon for free. It was pretty shitty. It didn't work so well, i had to keep resesting it, bc it wouldn't function properly. I didn't invest $130 dollars on this router, but i tried it out. Its been a very reliable unit. I am very skeptical when it comes to electronics. i have to say this is worth the price,I would recommend it.

I have very little experience with Wireless routers other than helping a family member install a Linksys router with poor results. It frequently had poor signal strenghth even from 10 feet distance from the router. So the router ended up being returned and the more difficult task or wiring ethernet cables from one room to another was accomplished instead.
I have since purchased a laptop with wireless capabilities and was dreading going back to the same problems I had before. Therefore, I wanted to make sure I purchased the best possible router that was on the shelf. Hence, after a little research I took a chance on the 824 from the Netgear and haven't been disappointed.
The setup was easy and took about 15 minutes. All it asked was to have my DSL connection up and running during the install and it did the rest. I can excellent signal strength from downstairs or any other room in my house and haven't had a dropped connection yet after 6 months of use. I can't be any happier.
My only recommendation, don't forget the password upon inital set-up because I did and now have the unfortunate task to reinstall the router the next time I need to change settings on it. But in the mean, if it aint broke, don't fix it.

It has soem good security featuers like WPA2 (TKIP AES.
and IP filtering..you can filter unwated websites and shedule internet loging time.and you can deny unwanted people to access the internet during busy hours..
Looks god it has some birght blue lights and people will atract ..good design..
But when it comes to performance what I can say is **sucks* I have to reset it evrymorning coz it goes idel..sometimes you have to reset the router during working time coz your clients wont connect to the router.
If you have 4-5 PCs or Notebooks this is a good product to implement.
Pros:
Many security options
Excellent range
High throughput
Cons: Limited monitoring Options
Very limited and poor technical support
meant only for consumer use

The only problem I have had with it at all is setting it up. It took us about 2 hours. I agree with the guy that said go to the website, it really helped.

Excellent router, I've had it for almost a year and it has been super reliable. Wouldn't recommend it though as Netgear releases it's Wireless-N products.
