Well, for what it is worth, I was told by the owner of a computer fixing business that Netgear made a router that did not make you jump thru hoops to hookup and get going. He has been using them for many years and said he never had any problems with them and they were very simple to hookup.
So, I took his advise and got one 4 months ago and have not looked back since. Everything he told me was true. Easy to set up and no problems ever since.
So there you have it..........my experience and would recommend.....Sterling
