Summary: worth every penny
Comment: excellent, worth every penny. just plug in, install both antenas and connect it to your router, we had 5 laptots working at the same time without any problem and we all were at different places. sgnal strength was to the maximum, and very important without any drop communication. I bougth a Linksys wrt160 and the signal strength was midium to weak with drop communication. I returned after a week trial.

Summary: GOOD FOR CONCRETE BUILDINGS
Comment: OK I dont live in the US, so if you live in a house, structure or apartment that isn't made out of match sticks and drywall (the rest of the world) this works really well....I bought two of these and now my 8000+ sq ft (750 m^2) apartment gets good signal in every room but the kitchen (stainless steel everything). Easy install, good features.
Make sure you buy the 7 dbi antennas (they help alot)

Summary: This puppy knots socks!
Comment: If you have a difficult wireless LAN issue that you want to solve - this one simply will do the trick.

Consider an adobe 16 inch thick walled 4,500 sq foot two story home and the wireless penetration issues that occurs shooting downstairs and across the house 150 ft through what is effectively ~ 5-6 feet of walls and floors - and you'll get the idea.

Now we even can get signal at pool side through 2 walls and 150+ ft almost like you were plugged in to the box! - Probably underwater for that mater - but I didn't test that part out. :-)

The unit is plug and play for most home and office use and allows for more intricate setups. Uhh... negatives? - well being this powerful they put in a small cooling fan - so don't expect abosolute silence.

Remember one thing - if your ISP isn't giving you the bandwidth you need this won't speed it up - it will simply pass whatever bandwidth you have as fast and as far as you can do legally (as their packaging reminds you).

Plug and play - the only poopie thing is you need to remember to purchase two antennae to make the unit complete. Don't worry about "N" - this "G" router will do the trick.

If you don't need a tank - get this guy's younger brother @ 1/2 Watt and considerably better pricing I would guess that it would do the trick for most situations (not tested).

Summary: Bountiful WiFi 1 Watt router
Comment: Installation took one call to the help line as the owner's manual was not complete. Then the router would not remain stable for more than about 7 hours and was returned to the manufacturer for a RMA replacement. We are still waiting the replacement. What happened was the ethernet connections remained hard connected to the Internet but the five test wireless connections all lost their IP addresses that could only be recoverd by rebooting the router. Then about 7 hours later, this repeated. We still don't have solid performance data to present. However, we did get some testing and it looked good even if unstable.

Summary: Leopard users please read !
Comment: I am running 10.5.1 and Safari 304 hangs when accessing the internal web page. Firefox 30b1 has same issue. Spent over an hour with tech support (HIGHLY qualified agent; Called at 2am, they have 24hr support) and could not fix it.
Tried Camino 153 and it works perfectly.

Only nig is the LOUD fan noise ... May have to locate it in another room.
