I had an old netgear that had no problems. For some strange sequence of events I ended up buying this. Why? Not important. This does seem a bit faster, or it did, but I never measured it so I’m not 100% sure of that.
What I am sure of is that it stops ad needs rebooting every day or so. It’s range gets worse and worse then needs a reboot.
It’s an absolute pile of … I just don’t need the trouble that this gives. I’ll never buy Belkin again. This has all sorts of troubles.

Wireless N is worth it. Simple as that.
Expect real word transfers of up to 9 Megabytes per second. Remember though that to get that you need it to be on ‘N mode’ – which makes b/g devices unable to use the network. If you have it on b/g/n mode the max is about 7 megabytes per second… (still not bad!) but something to consider.
Many folks get confused about megabits and megabytes – and there’s a world of difference… so if you’re not up on such things perhaps google it and have a read.
Easy install and solid firewall. Oh – and it’s quite cheap too.
It was a good buy.

Been looking at getting wireless for a while now and this model was recommended by a friend.
ordered using amazon supplier and only took 1 week delivery, not the 2-5 weeks stated, so its not worth paying extra to get it from an independant supplier in 3 days, save yourself the money!!
Works very well and looks smart too.
Had a few problems on set up, as i always do using virgin broadband!, but a call to the helpdesk and it was sorted. great service.
The USB adapter did not come with a stand for a desktop but its just in my USB ports on rear of machine and signal fine.
Recommend!

I’ve had this router two days now.
In that time it’s dropped the connection every ten minutes, my internet radio can’t get an IP address, my Xbox360 can’t even see it on the network and when I do get a connection, it has the bandwidth throttled from 10mb to 3mb at the best of times.
Tried changing settings, resetting to factory defaults, different ethernet cables, moving position, tried it on my laptop, netbook and desktop and it doesn’t work with any of them.
Normally I’m a huge fan of Belkin but this..? This I simply can’t recommend spending any money on at all.

I had a pefectly good Linksys wireless G router but I wanted a greater range for my netbook (XP and N wireless card). Thought that attaching USB memory would prove useful. No advantage in range and increasingly frustrated at having to reboot router every day. Changing channels has not helped. Suggest that you should Google “Belkkin N+ problems”. It would seem that there are a lot of problems with this router and enourmous amounts of time wasted trying to get it working properly. I will be going back to using my old Linksys G router.
