    This router didn't work with my smart TV. Too difficult to fix. No CD to reinstall. Bought a NetGear N600 router which had much easier setup process (and a CD!). The NetGear products solved the problems and works with all of our devices.

    7 1/2 support hours were invested with Belkin technical support and local cable company technical support. It was determined that the router was not compatible with our hardware. Frustrating experience. Would not buy another Belkin product.

    Networking speeds were horrible...stay far away from this wireless router. Also, another thing, while the glossy finish is nice, this Belkin N600 NB wireless router is also prone to getting scratched up easily.

    Very happy so far

    This is a great router, it replaces a Netgear 150 which, like clockwork lost it's connection monthly...also did not have much range...with the Netgear, I had a 60-80% signal on my couch 30ft & 1 wall away, with this Belkin I have 90-95% signal in the same location...also am able to connect at 80% on my patio, the Netscape was 30% or so. The main reason I bought this was that I bought a internet connected tv & blueray, the tv could not find the old router the blue rar did but it was slow...I bought this because I have read good reivews and it was a dual band...I was leery of the Belkin brand thinking they were best known for making low price cables, power strips and such..I was wrong. it has the one touch set up, on my tv and blue ray, I click a button for one touch set up of the router, go press the little button on the top of the router and all the settings are done, nice. some people complain because it only has one stedy blue light on the top, works for me, very sleeek , glossy black sides, one blue light very moderen...besides my cable modem has plenty of flashing lights...now I suppose they all mean something to someone who really cares but, bottom line, it connects me to the internet, quickly and reliably what more do you need?

    So far its great

    This is the first router I've needed in a while ..I went with the 600 model because i needed to connect multiple devices at a time and not really for the range or speed ..Well I must say this router was way easier to set up than my older netgear.. I plugged it in and basically the router did everything for me ..Just picked automatic set up and it hooked up to our Comcast internet no problem. Lemme tell you, we have a lot of devices going on this thing at once , 2 cell phones, a laptop, 3 kids tablets, and a smart tv that streams netflix and other apps...so far NO problem !! I was honestly amazed when I purposely said we are going to run everything at once and this device handled it like a champ..Fast too !! ...Hopefully this performance keeps up. Only 4 stars because the signal will drop a few bars when we move to different rooms but has never dropped a connection yet..

    The product would not connect to my Comcast modem and find the Internet. I tried twice and the second time I tried the manual set up method. The unit just hung in a loop with the wait symbol on the screen.

    Bought this on June 30, 2016. It worked great for about 7 weeks. Now only the 5mhz A/C band works. The N band stops and starts constantly. Don't buy this model.

      Hi Mike,

      Interference is one of the most common problems your home network may face and this can be caused by the electronic devices in your home (cordless phones, speakers, and microwave ovens). We suggest that you tweak the wireless channel on your router. Use the three non-overlapping channels for the 2.4 GHz (1, 6, and 11).

      If the connection will not improve, please send us an email at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this review so that we can assist you further.

      Regards,

      Hi, VJson,

      The performance of your Belkin router is not what we expected. Let's sort this out. Do you happen to know if your router is running on the latest firmware version? Have you tried tweaking the channels for both frequency bands? For now, try channels 1, 6, 9 and 11 for the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network, and channels 36, 40, 44 and 48 for the 5 GHz. It is also recommended to keep your router's firmware up-to-date. If the issue persists, send us an email at [email protected] so we can assist you properly. Please include your contact information, the Title, and the link to this review for review for reference.

      We'd be more than happy to assist you.

    So Far - So Good

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Very affordable. Extremely easy to set up. No issues so far (running for about a month as of this review). I run: an iPad, an iPhone, an Evo, an iPod, and a living room tower computer all from this router (never all devices simultaneously, but often two or three) and it's been working great. I have had guests who needed access and they were able to logon without incident. My only issue might be that they give you a password and also a password for guests - I haven't yet seen the "guest" login be discovered by a guest computer. Maybe this has to be done manually. I'm not inclined to go through the hassle of a manual setup, so giving them the regular password is fine with me.
