4 of 5 okay router (but better than I expected) Sunday, July 13, 2008 Jimmy from Allston, MA
I've been using this router for over a month now in my apartment and it's been okay.
Firmware upgrade:
Right after I got the router, I tested it (it worked), and I installed the firmware upgrade. The firmware upgrade was designed to be used with a MS Windows computer (the script on the update page looks for a ":" from the C:\ and rejects anything else). I don't normally use MS Windows, so this was annoying. After loading the upgrade, the router only displayed blank pages. So I took a risk and hard-restarted the router. After that, it worked and I have not had to restart it since.
Reliability:
After using it for about a day, the router started to reject connections to it (couldn't associate). So I plugged my laptop into the router via Ethernet cable, went to the Wireless setting page, clicked configure, and save (without making any changes). That mysteriously fixed it and the connection has been good since (though my roommate who plays online games tells me that he drops on occasion).
Features:
QoS on this router is confusing so I left it disabled; but I think higher number priorities should be faster. The router has more speeds than 54, 6, 11, and 1Mbps (has more fall-back speeds for when the signal strength isn't good).
Other:
It gets pretty warm. The plastic face in the front was slightly misaligned (but not terrible). Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Nice Product Monday, June 23, 2008 burris from Aventura Fl
I've had this for a few weeks now and it works quite well..
A snap to set up.
One of the main reasons for buying it was the mention of QOS along with PPPoE built-in...since I use VOIP and DSL exclusively, this was important.
The DOCS were not too clear on its setup, so after upgrading the firmware, I e-mailed support with this question. Their quick response was that their engineers were working on new firmware and in about a month, when it was ready, they would e-mail me with full instructions for the QOS programming..

5 of 5 Works Great and Great Deal Sunday, June 15, 2008 A Customer from Detroit, Michigan
I have been shopping for similar product for a while. I wanted to purchase a brand name and had my mind set on it. When I saw this Level One on sale with rebate, I figure I would give it a shot based on the reviews I read. I wasn't really expecting much. Also, thought it would be a problem due to Internet phone or VOI I have.
After receiving this, I plugged it in to the my PC and ran the labtop as well. This works amazingly great. The range is awesome. I can take it to any room in the house, backyard, or front portch without any issues. As a matter of fact, I am getting all bars strenth. This works great with Comcast fast speed cable.
Boy, I am happy I took a chance on Level One. I would highly recommend this product, especially when on special. Was this review helpful?

1 of 1 customers found this review helpful. 4 of 5 Good value Friday, June 13, 2008 A Customer from Charlotte NC
PROS: I use this unit wired and it does not drop connections as my prior 2 routers did.
CON: I've been trying to get tech support to help me configure the QOS, the reason I bought it and so far no success. I'm sure it is just figuring how to fill in the blanks but haven't gotten it right yet. Was this review helpful?
