    I'm not as happy as I thought I might of been purchasing this wifi unit. Although, it could be my incoming internet. Videos take a while to buffer.

    I read reviews and thought this was a good product. I have had nothing but issues. Not worth the price. Just as slow as the device provided free from my service provider. Also performs worse. I have more issues loss of internet connectivity now than I did prior to UPGRADING to this item. Just not worth the price. SKIP THIS ONE.

    you must know your internet provider username and password. The directions for this step in the set up are not too helpful.

    The phones do the trick. Nothing fancy. Just needed one to plug into the jack and the other handsets to put wherever.

    My low rating is not for the product itself. The salesperson recommended this for AT&T provider. I had no intentions of paying this much for the modem/router, but I was tired of my internet going out several times of the day. I was told by AT&T that this device is NOT compatible with AT&T. It was too late to return it!
