Belkin F5D8230-4 PreN Router

[Skott]

I did a search and only found threads about the 7230 model. Anyway I read alot of reviews through google, pricegrabber, mags, etc., and its gotten alot of good reviews. I need to upgrade to wireless and am considering this model based on reviews and my home situation. I can get it cheaper than the Linksys GX model so I figure I'll try it first and see if it works for me. Just wondering if anyone has any good/bad experience with it and possibly any tips on its setup and performance. I plan on ordering it later today.

Thanks in advance.

Just a quick update. I received my router Wednesday and set it up this morning(Friday). The signal into my daughter's room (50ft from router) on the far end of the house is excellent! The signal goes through a bathroom, closet, and into her bedroom with a 97% signal strength. Transmission Data Rate is 108 Mbps and the Receive Data Rate bounces between 72Mbps-108Mbps. It exceeds far more than I hoped for. Very happy with this unit.

The router itself is reasonably priced but I think the Belkin Pre-N WirelessDesktop Card that I also purchased for her PC is a bit pricey. It works very well with the router though and setup for both was easy. If I run across any problems I'll update people here. So far I give this wireless router a big thumbs up!
