Netgear WPN824 any good?

[akane1984]

has anyone checked out the WPN824 by netgear. my home situation is two PCs and an xbox. one PC is connected via wireless. My current belkin g router is terrible and has poor connection always drops or hits dead spots.

what do people think of this router or could recommend one they think is even better. My Internet comes through NTL Cable Modem.

I have it it is a great router have set this up and used it when i had ntl and just recently moved so now use it for adsl really easy router auto detects settings and configs itself only takes 5 mins and your away

ONE WORD OF WARNING THE BLUE FLASHING LIGHTS CANT BE DISABLED AND FLASH ALL THE TIME. IF THIS ROUTER IS GOING INTO YOUR BEDROOM THE FLASHING LIGHTS DRIVE YOU NUTS AND YOU COVERING DIDNT WORK AS THE LIGHTS FLASHED THROUGH STILL.

New models of this have option to disable light but i would check 1st

Not sure tbh was on the phone last week and wa told by my account manager they have bought a new one ou,t didnt ask for model no as only bought this one a few months ago. on this one there are about 6 blue leds that flash anticlockwise I can only sleep in pitch black dark so any light makes it hard to sleep in a dark bedroom it drives you so potty I have to turn it when it pees me off
