Title: Make sure the plug is handy
Product review: This is a great idea, with an awful implementation. I got it up and running in 10 mins, updated all the firmware and software, configured my firewall, etc. It plays rhapsody, internet radio, and your mp3 library for short periods of time (5 to 10 mins). It regularly loses the wireless signal, or the server, or both, and I tried it with two different APs including one that has much better RF performance. When it gets confused, it gets really confused and there is no way to get it back other than pulling the plug, so make sure its handy and make sure you took your pills, because this great little idea is really badly implemented.Looks like a hacked software implementation or some kind of marginality in the hardware. Unusual for Netgear, their stuff is usually pretty good.
