Netgear FWAG114 PROSAFE DUAL BAND-WLS VPN FW ( FWAG114NA )

Rating:
Summary: Simply does not work
Review: I have owned Netgear FWAG114 for over one year and have had repeated problems with random drop outs of service. Like a previous reviewer, I have had to reset the AP at least once a day for it to resume to work. At first, I thought it was my cable service; however, when I switched to a different router, I have absolutely no problems. I have updated the AP with the most recent Firmwire and have purchased several to test them. Unfortunately, they are all lemons and the problem lies within the AP itself.

Summary: Great Product
Review: I highly recommend this product, which can be used with their other NetGear connectivity products (PCI cards, etc) as well as Centrino-based laptops seamlessly.
Everything works right out of the box, first time!

Summary: DO NOT BUY IT!!!
Review: I've owned this unit for a week and I've had to reboot it over a dozen times. My experience with Netgear's FWAG114 is apparently the rule rather than the exception; message boards show many people face this problem. Things like VPN are worthless if you have to do a local reboot twice a day; Netgear is irresponsible for selling this product. This is a very expensive product that I would think Netgear would want to work. Why they would stake their reputation in part on a product they know doesn't work is simply baffling. In short, the fancy specs obfuscate the fact that it just doesn't work. The Netgear FWAG114 is ultimately a glowing example of "too good to be true."

Summary: It's a good WAP/router combo
Review: Works very well.
Although it's a little slow for intranet transfers.
I use it with long (152 and 128 bit) WEP keys and maybe
that explains why local transfers are a bit slow.
SSID broadcasting can be turned off for both the A and G
APs which is a very desirable.
The radio signal is strong unlike other APs I've used before.
Highly recommended.
