The range is great but the two things that cased strikes against the Netgear wireless products are the performance, and the constant rebooting of the Router required during setup. It took almost 20 minutes to get all of the ports forwarded, set up some blocked lists, set up the wireless network and more. Most of this time was spent waiting on the router to reboot. Although wireless performance was less than expected and certainly less than advertised, wired performance of the Gigabit switch was very good. . .
