    Refurb: Netgear WPNT834-NAR RangeMax 240 Wireless Broadband Router

    Thanks to the OP for the original post, and AMDMadness for pointing out the Netgear WNR834B N router (refurb) was on sale for $49.99...I grabbed one...Lowest retail price I could find on it was $129...I just hope it's as reliable as my WGR614 v 6 has been... If it is, then this is a great deal...
