Belkin Router - wireless, n150
Amazing router, works great!! My internet provider is Time Warner Cable Road Runner and with this router i get 10mbps with no problem, the setup is very EASY just plug the yellow cable(ethernet) to your modem and that's it belkin do the "magic", i have a PS3, Wii, 2 iPhones, 1 Blackberry, 1 Notebook and 1 iMac connected in my network and this router do a GREAT job!, really really buy this router, why pay 60 or 80Dlls for another router if this for 29.99 do a great job. Belkin N150 Wireless N Router (Latest Generation)
I tore through the package, inserted the disk, plugged her in....POW. It couldn't have been 10 minutes when I had it up and running 5 devices. It didn't ask for IP adresses, or what devices to run... It just knew. I went to my neighbors house and tried everything I could to hack into my network, Belkin said NO.. Less wires, and I got to cancel extra IP adresses with my provider. Pays for itself in 2 months. ALL SMILES
I bought this unit exactly one month ago. Since I used 3Com, D-Link before, I quickly set it up.
PROs:
-Easy installation;
-Easy configuration;
-Speed seems good.
CONs:
Two weeks after usage, the wireless network can't be connected from my iphone, g-tablet, laptop wifi, desktop wifi. Maybe it's my bad luck?
This issue happens once a week and every time I have to power it off to resolve.
My firmware version is v. 1000, 201109G1135490. Latest FW version from belkin site is version: 1.00.08. If it doesn't work out, I have to contact support.
P.S.: The original firmware is v.00.08. The wireless still fails once a week after flashing. I guess it's purely bad luck.
This is the second Belkin router that I have purchased and installed a Belkin router. I had tried to setup and install a cisco linksys router previously and even though I'm a very tech savvy individual, could not get any step of the process to work. Compared to that- this setup and install was the most strait forward and easy I'v ever done. The instructions were plain English, non-cryptic and the diagrams made complete sense. The best part is that it worked the FIRST time. The whole setup took about 10 minutes. Excellent functionality for the price. - N150 - Wireless - Routers'
