bzgnyc - (October 18, 2004) I've now installed three WGR614v3 and one WGR614v4 routers. The first (a WGR614v3) worked perfectly -- it was so easy I didn't know what to do and it worked well. I bought two more -- and also got v3 models even though the website suggests that v4 and v5 were already in the field. That might have been for the best since the one v4 router that I tried seems deficient. I only had problems with one of the WGR614v3 routers. It had the annoying habit of freezing -- especially under extended Internet load such as viewing streaming Quicktime movies. Sometimes it would happen after 20 or 30 minutes and other times I wouldn't experience the problem for several days. After finally c

hsimms - (April 27, 2004) The only problems I have had with this router were in set-up. Be sure to download the latest firmware BEFORE you install the router. I tried to set mine up and it would not let me connect to the internet after the setup process. I tried taking it out of the system, but it had changed some settings in the setup process and I couldn't find the changes. I still could not access the internet even though I was connected directly to the cable modem. I downloaded the latest firmware from another computer and installed it. Everything then worked fine. Do pay attention to the recommendations regarding placing the router. Initially, I placed mine on a shelf on my printer cart that was ju

ehalbritter - (July 25, 2004) I'm a 5 year veteran in IT. Although I prefer a CLI to the GUI interface, this is simple enough for the non-technical. I decommissioned my Cisco AP340 for the Linksys WRT54G to take advantage of the 3-in-1 (Access point, router, 4 port switch). Don't bother with the CD setup - simply plug in all periphials and follow the set-up fold out provided. -Wireless network- -works with Cisco 350 Client adapters for laptops -works with the Dell 1100 compact flash wireless adapter -DHCP server works flawless -Wired network- -Same as above (minus the wireless network cards) 1.

4 Star Review Capable wireless adapter

mgperson - (06/29/2009) The delivered software from Cisco did NOT work well on my PC. It seemed to be 'dueling' with XPs native support so that re-establishing contact with a known signal was NOT smooth. Also, the text in the display panels of the Cisco software became illegible when I used my laptop screen as opposed to an external monitor. De-installed the Cisco software, then let XP do hardware detection. Gave XP the Cisco CD as the location of the driver. That fixed all the problems.

5 Star Review compatible with 360

italianpride86 - (06/23/2009) saw this router on the shelves and decided to look up the specs and reviews. after seeing both, i've come to the conclusion this is a nasty router. i was just curious if you would get the same quality if you ran a 360 off it...

4 Star Review Netgear wireless router - WGT624

nileshnirmal - (06/13/2009) I am looking forward to buy this router. But before buying I want to confirm 1 thing. Does it allows VPN passthrough? If it does, do we need to configure specific settings or will it work with default settings.
