Holy crap does Netgear suck
I bought a Linksys 802.11g router to replace this buggered Netgear version I got in "kit" form from Amazon (card + router) . The Netgear was nothing but pain for 2 weeks. Signal constantly dropped. Was really hard to figure out why -- location, interference, the card, the Win XP driver, the router firmware, the Airtunes bridge interference, the cordless phone, the neighbor's wifi, the weather, the...???? Infuriating.
Plugged in the Linksys, got it going, and goodbye Netgear. So much for hip designed devices.
