Buyer Reviews :
After getting my PhD in computer science and moving into a new house, I wanted a good wireless access point/switch to go with the cable modem so that my wife and I could work on the net at the same time. I first tried the Linksys 4-port switch and wireless access point, but after being unable to get it to work properly despite the best efforts of linksys tech support and my networking knowledge, and taking the original back for a different one, I gave up and got the Netgear FM114P instead.
The Netgear box worked like a charm out of the box. I took it out, plugged it in, and connected to it. It was easy to configure, with very straightforward instructions, and it worked the first time I tried. Unlike the linksys box, it also includes a very nice print server, so that my wife and I can also share our HP laserjet, and I can print to it while sitting in the living room.
In addition, the netgear's logging facilities and configurability are very nice for more sophisticated users - the box can email you if it detects break-in attempts or DoS attacks, for example. I've been very impressed with this product. I have heard less-than-flattering things about netgear's technical support, but unlike when I was trying to get the linksys one working, I didn't need them.
