Pros: Does what it was advertised to do. Simple setup - not a lot of options. It's an AC band router that gives me better coverage than any I've had before. Looks much better than any router I've had before. It just works, and you don't have to be a network guru.

Cons: None so far, although it was bigger than I was expecting.

Other Thoughts: Not sure if people aren't reading at what this thing was designed to do, but its the wireless of the future. If you're worried about your Gigabit wired connections, this is not your router. If you're worried about the ability to make subtle setup changes and configurations, this is not your router. It is a router designed to provide awesome wireless coverage and simple setup, all the while being ready for the next wave of wireless connected everything.

Pros: Insanely fast with gigabit connection - transferring 100s of GB at over 33MB/sec (my monitor is showing a solid average over 300Mbps). Mapped the network drive from Windows 7 and got to transferring within minutes. I've usually had good luck with Seagate drives, and assuming this one lasts a while, I am extremely pleased on bang for the buck. My main uses do not include remote access, but the iPhone app seemed to stream my HD videos quite well from within my network. I think to really see the advantages of this drive, having a gigabit switch is definitely a must.

Cons: Instructions are little lacking for anyone not familiar with how to configure connections to networked devices.

Other Thoughts: Not that looks have much bearing on how good a product is, I will have to say they made this drive look pretty nice - better than many external drives I've seen, anyways. Also, I would say that if you're looking to get Network storage, do not expect setup to be as easy as external USB storage (ie plug and play). Know a little bit about your network and you'll have this device up and going in no time!
