 Excellent routerNov 18, 2009
I bought this refurbished router and it is simply excellent for my home use. Easy setup thru the explorer, no drivers needed just follow the Wizard Setup, select the protocol that best fits your wireless devices and that's it. 100% recommended.
Does what it should!Nov 09, 2009
This was my first time and I don't really have anything to compare this too, but it was easy to setup and works great!
 range MAX?Nov 08, 2009
Quite simply, this router is not at all what its cracked up to be. The range is lousy, hardly MAX at all. Great signal within 5 feet, but almost none only 50 feet away and with only one simple wall in the way. Our house is not so large that we shouldn't get a signal most anywhere.
 Was a dissappointmentOct 15, 2009
read review all over and thought that it was good product. I purchased and in seconds was up and running. Was so glad that the setup was a breeze. I am a person who downloads a lot of stuff and somehow felt that the download was slow. I have a 20mbps connection - I checked the speed when connected wirelessly. I was surprised it was 9 mbps. I connected with a wire - speed was 20mbps. Ok so i checked my wireless card with another wireless router works perfect. Called customer service - Very polite people on the other end. They created a case and helped out but were not able to solve it, kept blaming my wireless card. I went and got a new wireless card - netgear. Still the same issues continued. Called them up. they created another case number - made me do the same steps as was done during the first case number. ever since that I am calling every work and creating case numbers but neither the customer support knows what to do - they always end up saying a senior technician will call but dont fall for that trap - no one is going to call you.
My advise stay away from this product and to be on the safe side stay away from Netgear as such - their customer service sucks but one thing good about the customer service is that they speak politely even if they dont know anything.
 Nice router great priceSep 05, 2009
I just received the WPN824NA (refurbished) and replaced my old Netgear WGR614 which has been working fine over the years. The old router just didn't cover one room about 50 feet away with 3 walls in between. The 824EXT does the job. I now get two to three bars in that room.
The setup and checkout was relatively simple (about 30 minutes). If you have previous experience with Netgear the administration screen is virtually the same for most settings so I just noted the current settings on the old router and transferred them to the WPN824NA.
The refurbished WPN824 cost of approximately 20 dollars (including shipping) was a great price. If all you need is 802.11g this router will do fine.
