User Reviews for Netgear Netgear RangeMax 240 Wireless Router

  • Reviewed by: cbergoo

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: There are no straingths

    Weaknesses: Dosn't work against my broadband, my IBM t23 dosen't work with the internal wireless. Have to set up an separate computer (firewall) and use it as a switch.

    Overall Evaluation: DON'T by it. You better spend your money on some other router. This is my second one, the first one I bought disconnected from very frequently and the only solution in that problem was to restart it. Now I am using my old Fujutsi SIEMENS AP-600RP-USB, as a wireless connection.

    Strengths: Speed

    Weaknesses: May not work

    Overall Evaluation: If yours works, great. However, it may not. So I'll skip my long story and offer 3 advices:(1) Buy local. Yes I know it's more expensive.(2) Don't try "support" - unless you have plenty of time. Go straight to the store to get it replaced or returned.(3) SunRocket IP phone users beware. Support from both vendors are no good.It's great speed when it works.
