My previous experience with a Netgear Ethernet PC card has been positive. So, I purchased the WGR614 because of its impressive specs. Setup with my DSL modem was straightforward and everything seemed to work well. After a week or so the router began to drop synch, but (usually) was able to reconnect. Performance continued to degrade, however, and within a few days became only rarely usable. After a week of checking out line quality, computer connections, etc., as well as trying to extract some useful diagnostic information from Netgear's minimal online support site, I decided to try a different wireless DSL router. A Linksys WRT54G immediately established a rock solid connection and has performed flawlessly ever since.Sorry, Netgear, my loss is definitely your loss....
