Very reliable, and have used it for remote access also.The only reason I am looking to replace it is to run the Tomato firmware on it.Has been in place since 3/2006. I have read the comments here on Amazon, and quite frankly have had a pretty good experience with the unit. It is running in Florida, and maybe three or four times a year it needs to be bounced, but that is generally due to storms in the area.
It is in use continuously. I've had this item for two years and it has never been a problem--never.
Try a different model. Kind of makes this gateway/router useless after a period of time. Bottom line: it works for an unknown amount of time, after which you will continually have to restart the unit any time you send too much data at once. Skype calls, more than 1 computer, Xbox Live, all of it.
Overall works GREAT. Item seems to work well, but when using wireless and hard connected sometimes have to power off the router for it to connect.
it has nothing to do with my internet provider. I even tried downloading just 2 podcasts simultaneously and then the internet goes down and you have to power cycle the modem.so, if i were you, i would not even try it.
but after that, i wish you good luck. oh yes, it will be good for 30 days.
got this one at best buy and i was happy with it because the unit is a combination of cable modem and a wireless router in 1. it is when i connect my pc via the wifi that the internet connection is being disconnected.
hehehe bad part is that it disconnects the internet if you do simultaneous wireless connections/downloads.
all my wired devices can download multiple files without disconnecting.
