Customer Rating: - Excellent product
It is an excellent product. I did not have the internet signal in my room before and now i have five bars. Also the company offers 24/7 technical support.

Customer Rating: - Works but needed new firmware to work with Cable Modem
Well it works now. I was expecting to just plug it in and connect the cables. We ended up having a field service representative from the cable internet company talk to Belkin customer service. 3 hours later new firmware was installed and it finally worked. Seems like if they have the new firmware they should just put it on there at the factory. Very disappointing, hopefully this is fixed now if you order one.

Customer Rating: - Not what I expected...
While this may be a capable router, the configuration is relatively simple. I do have some significant issues. Having an older model of the F5D7230-4, which is the model number for this router. I recently ordered two, and the user interface for these two is different. Not only is it different than my older router, the UI is also different between the two new ones.

this may not be too much of an issue for most. But, I purchased them wrongfully assuming they would have the same features as my older F5D7230-4. there is significant difference between the versions. mostly for my use, I wanted to bridge my wireless connections to insure I had complete coverage in my large home. However, these do not support it. Customer support at Bangalore Belkin was of little help - they assumed I knew little or nothing of hardware, software, or firmware. They were clueless when I informed them of my intent and needed to pass me along to a supervisor and level 2 support.

If all you need is a wireless 4-port router for a limited coverage area. This is capable. Beyond that, go with something else. Despite the price.

Customer Rating: - Don't waste your money
I bought this from Walmart because of the price tag. But after the first day it would keep dropping the connection to my modem. I would have to reinstall the software at least once a week. When I got a brand new Motoroloa cable modem it wouldn't work with it at all. besides all of that it was incredibly SLOW. I would rather just plug the wire into my computer. Save you money and buy something better.
