I actually have a Netgear WGT624v3.

(Excuse my french here)

Avoid like the black fucking plague.

I've had this router for a few months now and have never actually managed to have an internet connection through it that lasted for more than a couple of hours. That is a wired connection, never mind my Wii or other PC which is wireless. That was when I first got it, now I can't even use the router full stop.

I'm no networking genius but I know enough about computers and everything else, I'm 95% positive this router is just... well rubbish.

It just... doesn't work.

I can reset the factory settings on it time and time again, use the Setup Wizard, it'll detect my ADSL modem, it'll detect DHCP, and then go on to tell me there is no internet connection at all. No ammount of manual configuring either sorts this. The connection IS there but this router just refuses to accept that, and times out on any request I make.

I may just be very unlucky or overlooking something trivial (which by now I doubt), but this router is just... well I wouldn't wish it upon anyone.
