Title: worst consumer router ever
Product review: I am an IT professional with 20 years experience. I've owned dozens of consumer routers, including 3 WGR614s. (Long story why I bought three routers that suck but beyond the scope of this review.) I've owned products from Linksys, other Netgear models, D-Link, Buffalo, and many others.It is, without a doubt, the single worst consumer-oriented networking product I have purchased to date. Performance is terrible, configuration is problematic, it is nearly impossible to make it work as configured for modestly "advanced" requirements (e.g. port forwarding). And it constantly drops wireless connections (with optimal placement and configuration where other wifi routers shine). It just completely sucks. Avoid at all costs.Virtually any other modern wireless router should easily be better. Lately it has been hard to go wrong with D-Link.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
