If you’ve got a broadband cable modem and 4 or fewer computers to hook up to the main feed, this is the router you want. I had a Linksys router, and for 4 years thought, this is as fast as it gets?

On a hunch, I decided to try a new router, and chose this model. Hookup was EASY. There is a CD that comes with the unit, and the CD tells you what to do, step by step. Not only that, it performs tests each time you perform a step, to see if you did it right.

My broadband speed is now four times faster than what it was with the old Linksys unit. Incidentally, I also use VPN, and had zero issues getting a connection with this router.

A great product, highly recommended.

This is the fastest router you can buy fro the price. The only downside, like almost any router under $100 is that it has a [junky] NAT firewall built in that doesn’t allow some types of direct connections like AIM file transfer and direct connect. But, if you need the fastest wired router under $100…this is your choice. I’ve tested about 10 different routers and this smokes them all. Make sure to head over to netgear.com and get the lastest firmware for it as soon as you start using it because the new firmware makes it even faster and resolves response time issues that may occur in the older versions.

I’m very surprised with the ease-of-use capability with this cute little router. Performance is amazing, with better specs than most routers. And the looks are perfect for the home, it looks like a sardine can with easy-to-read light indicators.
I tried this router with my PC, XBox, and Dreamcast (yes, I will always love this console no matter what people say), and they work perfectly online. Once I receive the PS2 Network Adaptor, then I will test it as well, but I don’t foresee any problems. You also get a vertical stand, a straight network cable, and free privacy software.

This router is a nice package and it actually works! I’ve heard problems with Linksys, SMC, and D-Link (and believe me, I’ve researched long and hard for the perfect router), but Netgear has instantly won my rave for the company and its products. For the price and performance, the RP614 router is a best buy recommendation.

I picked this router up after doing some research on customer reviews on different brands/models. I was deciding between this RP614NA and the FR114P (also Netgear). I finally decided on this one after it ended up in my Amazon gold box with an additional discount. The router setup took about 20 minutes for 2 PC’s sharing AT&T Broadband Cable. (One XP and one Win 98SE). Another 10 min and I had the network up and going (file/printer sharing). Probably would have went even quicker if I had more networking experience. As far as speed, I haven’t noticed any drop by adding the router. The bandwidth test on CNet comes up about the same depending on the amount of traffic. I have not used the port forwarding or content filtering features, yet, so I can’t comment on that. The only thing I wish it had is the DoS and SPI security features of the FR114P. However for half the price, I can’t really complain. If you are looking for an inexpensive router with basic features and easy setup, I would definitely recommend the RP614 based on my experience. If you want the additional security features and internal print server, you might check out the FR114P.

I was able to hook up my three computers to my cable modem in about 10 minutes. One of the three computers was a mac, and the other two were pc’s–no problems were encountered and the interface was seemless. This is a very nice router which was simple to install!

I consider myself to be pretty computer literate so when I had trouble routing dsl to my two computers I became very frustrated. After spending countless hours trying to install two other routers (linksys, d-link) I was about to give up. Then I read a review of the netgear and thought I would give it a try. Within minutes of opening the package I had both of my computers online and surfing the web. The installation was flawless and I couldn’t believe it only took minutes to install when I had worked for hours with the other routers that I tried. This router also works well with macintosh and can rout computers with different operating systems (xp, 98, etc.) Don’t waste time with other routers–this one is the best hands down.

Got the router and set it up. The set up was easy and the instructions were very simple. Three days after the initial set-up my connection was lost. I could get connected by directly connecting with the modem, but not with the router. I was about to return the router. I then went into the router set-up (http://192.168.0.1 it is all in the instruction book) and told the router to use my network card MAC address. Everything worked again.
It seems that cable companies scan thier network. If the MAC address associated with your account changes, they cut you off. Lucky that this router can read my NIC mac address and then create an alias.

I’ve set up dozens of these things, for work and for friends. This is the model I recommend to friends who ask me what to get.

Setup for cable modem (ComCast) was almost mindless. Setup for DSL took about a minute more, because you need to have your DSL username and password handy.

I won’t go into detail about the success of which applications run. So far, the only real difficulty might be with games like Q3A. I’m not entirely convinced the problem is on my side, because my frag buddy is using a Linux/IPChains router, and he always has to spend 30 minutes editing his firewall table before we can get any games to work. Zing

I also recommend this because _it does not have wireless_. That may sound odd. The standard arguement is “hey, the wireless version only costs a few dollars more. I should buy it now, even if I have no use for wireless, because I might go wireless in the future”.

For me, a network security engineer, this arguement falls flat on its face. Most home networking devices have wireless turned on by default, broadcast the SSID by default, and by default they do not enable WEP. People won’t know to turn it off until they need it. And this rant is directed at networking vendors – turn it off. Educate your users on security.

It’s easy to add wiress if and when you want it…

Purchased this router through Amazon on a Saturday and got on Tuesday. At the time I bought this router there was a [$$] rebate promotion going on so I was able to get this at a very good price. I had thought about getting a Linksys router but had read about so many problems people were having with it, such as, unable to configure, humming noises coming form the unit, poor customer service, and only a 1-year warranty! I hooked up this Netgear RP614 to my PCs, one using Windows 98se, the other with Windows XP Pro, and didn’t even have to use to setup wizard, they were configured and running right after I rebooted them. Now all I have to do is install my access point to this router and I will be able to roam throughout my house checking email and viewing webpages once I get new PDA with Wi-Fi wireless. This has to be one of the easiest add ons I have ever installed on my system. I highly recommend this router for anyone that wants a non-problematic install. And Netgear offers a 3-year warranty, too!

Setting up the Netgear router to share our DSL line was terribly easy. The directions are clear and set-up is quick and simple. It includes a CAT5 cable and a little vertical mount which makes the router look very slick. You don’t have to install any software or drivers; there is just a simple test procedure which takes a couple of minutes. The Netgear physically behaves like a server, and it has some solid security features. Also, installing the router actually solved problems that we originally had with the DSL modem, and it has behaved itself nicely since we set up the network. Accessing the router’s features is simple- you log onto the Netgear by typing “192.168.0.1″ in your browser window. Configuration is simple and straightforward. The RP614NA is a fine product and reasonably priced.
