- Strengths:
- Quiet, compact, lots of ports and colored lights to show signal speed.
- Weaknesses:
- Flaky firmware or power hardware
- Summary:
- Worked only for a few days, then started re-booting itself every few minutes, sometimes after seconds. Just a brick now; I would recommend against it.

- Strengths:
- Fast, no fans, vertical mount stand, very quiet, nice looking
- Weaknesses:
- I liked the old style blue square boxes
- Summary:
- I have 5 of these, purchased at various times, and I'm really happy with them (as I am with all of my netgear switches and firewalls). A really nice product.

- Strengths:
- Had none since it simply won't work.
- Weaknesses:
- Can't tell - it didn't work out of the box.
- Summary:
- It simply doesn't work. ME Tech Sppt doesn't even know if it should come with software (it doesn't). Netgear has nothing on their web page. I'm out $60 if I can't find the bill. So far it's not even a boat anchor.

- Strengths:
- Easy to plug in and use. Worked great for the first year.
- Weaknesses:
- Unreliable hardware. Fails auto-speed sensing after 1year 1 month (just past the warranty :-(
- Summary:
- Very disappointing that it will not see a Gigabit connection all the time. I have tried switchign ports and I have tried new cables, etc., to no avail. Phoned customer service and there is nothing I can do since it is past warranty.
