Most Favorable Review

Great product!

EnGenius ESR7750 2.4GHz / 5GHz Simultaneous IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n Dualband Wireless N Router
EnGenius ESR7750 2.4GHz / 5GHz Simultaneous IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n Dualband Wireless N Router

Pros: No dropped signals, fast speeds, and insanely simple & easy setup. This router has been very reliable after about 1 month of use, and the installation CD took no expertise whatsoever, a few clicks and it literally setup itself.

Cons: The range is just slightly less than some other routers but I imagine that this shouldn't be an issue for the majority of people.

Overall Review: It seems that the more advanced today's routers get the less reliable many of them have become, but I highly recommend giving this one a shot. I have no complaints.

Pros: I wish I knew.

Cons: When the computer arrived, the power turned on but the computer itself was not functional. It was just a blank screen.

Overall Review: Over 5 weeks later, I'm still waiting for my replacement.

Pros: Very good range and speed when it worked

Cons: Occasionally dropped signal which can be a problem when streaming video on a TV or using a game console.

Overall Review: I really liked this router for the 2 or 3 weeks I owned it but then it inexplicably died. I lost my XBox Live connection, went to check the router, and it was gone... completely dead. I've read other reviewers say the same thing and should have listened. I had a good experience with my old Netgear WGR614, but it seems they just don't make 'em like they used to. Probably won't buy another Netgear again until they bring their quality control back up to an acceptable level. Not to mention that their customer service is light years away from improvement.
