Pros: Purchased this unit to use it as a A.P. since my primary router is in the basement (Actiontec). The WNDR4500 was recommend by 5 co-worker who have this unit and they are where very satisfied with it and I was very impress once set-up with the performance for streaming video on the 5GHz band to my LED TV which as a built in Wi-Fi and keeping all others on the 2.4GHz. Another note I was a bit reluctant on upgrading the firmware after a lot of comments but I did try it and it went well.

Cons: the finish looks slick but terrible with finger print
