Belkin Ni Wireless Router 
2008-05-27
Easy setup but the unit drop connection too often. Read reviews but brought the unit for its display and wider reception. Router is at one end of the house and wanted better signal connection at the upstair far end of the house. But the drop connections within a 15 feet radius was very fustrating and went back to my old 54g router which also happens to be a Belkin. Would not recommend this router.
Great range, no signal drop 
2008-05-03
I have tried many devices and this one is definitely the best, in particular it is better than the pricier WRT600N from Linksys. I live in a large apartment building with significant interferences from other WIFI networks, wireless phones, etc. However, I am able to cover two apartments with the N1; the range is excellent and the signal drops only rarely. I was so happy with the N1, my first 811.n router that I decided to try the WRT600N. I was hoping to improve further the transfer of video because the WRT600N operates in the 5MHz band. The results were disastrous and I have reinstalled the N1.
Excellent 2008-05-03
This product was easy to install. All the technical reviews about the product were correct.
I am very pleased with my purchase.
Bad Belkin 2008-05-02
I am totally disappointed with the support staff at Belkin - after numerous hours trying to follow their "easy set up instructions" I contacted Tec support in an effort to resolve the issues with my home network which was only operable at my main cpu.
After 4+ hours on the phone I was essentially told that the problem was not theirs and was with my CPU's and tat I needed to contact Dell as their was nothing further they could help me with.
I ended up crawling around under my house for 3 hours and hard wired my system that is now operating fine.
I will never purchase another Belkin product.
Stable, but limited bandwidth 
2008-04-30
Was happy with the stability of this unit for over a year, but always wondered why there have been no firmware updates since the units release several years ago...I recently upgraded my internet service from 6 to 10Mbps and was surprised to see no difference in my downstream speed. Tech support had me disconnect my Belkin N1 and attach my PC directly to the cable modem. Speed jumped up to 9.6Mbps. Replaced the Belkin with an Apple Airport Extreme, which has no problem delivering full download bandwidth.
Defective 2008-07-20
I spent more than one hour on the phone with customer service including being escallated to a senior tech. The router is defective and has to be shipped to Compton CA. It can't even be dropped off. Router did not look like it was new. Don't trust this seller.
WORST ROUTER EVER - DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY AND TIME 2008-07-13
I have purchased more than 10 routers in the last 10 years - including the Belkin pre-N router which was a pretty good router. I bought the N1 thinking it would be at least as good as the pre-N. Wrong! This thing is a step back into the dark ages. Unreliable connectivity. Horrible range. Poor interface with USB adapter.
All in all, I would steer VERY clear of this router. It is a waste of money and, more importantly, a huge waste of time trying to get it working and then, trying to keep it working. Don't go N unless you have to. And if you have to, look elsewhere for a reliable N router.
worthless 2008-06-25
I can't belive i paid 150 bucks for this pile of crap at best buy. The set up was smooth until it came to set up security. Unfortunately if you own a MAC you get punished by their tech department (who barely speak english.) You also apparently have to have a masters degree just to set up any form of security. Who knows you have to go the uk web site to down load the latest firmware just so the damn thing will work at all. finnaly after the third day of gettng no tech support i've decided they can have this pile of crap back. bottom line i will NEVER buy another Belkin product again! To anyone who whishes to buy anything from this company if you own a MAC computer don't do it.
Good ..With some Tweak 
2008-06-07
Bought this router since I am moving to a new place. Previous routers are Linksys or 3com. So time to try Belkin. Initial impression, looks are impressing.
Setting up is easy.
There are some problems that I encountered i.e. losing connection, etc, but after research the internet, things can be solved by upgrading the firmware to the latest one.
Now, I am happy with the Belkin N1.
So if you have problem with your Belkin, try this:
1. Upgrade your firmware (Sometimes, you need to get the beta version from Belkin UK - since its not in the USA Belkin website)
2. Make sure your Qos turned off
3. Turn on the Signal to (20+40 hz).
Then it will solve all the Belkin problems.
vpn, voip (SIP device), all works fine after that.
Do I recommend this product? Yup
If you are a beginner and wants to buy this router, ask your friend to help you to upgrade the firmware and setting up.
Don't waste your money 2008-05-31
Hi got this router thinking nmo was the latest fastest and greatest. But It quit after less than a year of lagging I thought my internet was going down.. Not very fast and just got slower and slower. I replaced it with a linksys G for half of what I paid. Its faster and just goes and goes.
