Title: Useless Software
Product review: This router comes prepackaged with some of the most useless software I've ever come across. I bought the WGT 624 (v3) to replace my broken D-Link DI-514. Thought it was a bargain at the time of purchase - an illusion quickly shattered.The router's forced auto setup first incorrectly detected my cable modem settings, telling me I had a Static IP, when my IP was being dynamically assigned by Comcast. Internet connection only came after two or three reboots. And here's the rub, the vaunted work-through-walls signal people associate with this brand couldn't even register at full strength when I was sitting 2 feet away from it on my laptop. I took my laptop downstairs and the signal dropped to 24Mb/s (down from 48 when I was 2 feet away).I returned this router the next day and got myself another D-Link, DI-524. Within 10 minutes, I had a full strength wireless signal throughout my entire apartment - upstairs and downstairs.Stay away.
