Not bad at all. I'd be all over this if it had a built in 4 port switch like the RT314.

I got this when the free shipping started at the beginning of the month and the price then was $113. Nice to see them raise the price to make up for the free shipping now :) $68 after the rebate is definitely worth it.

ok on their netgear website it says that the 1 port router can do mulitplayer games and what not online. but the 4 port version says doesn't say that.

So can the 1 port do games online and the 4 port can't?

Its going to be doing the same routing? Like I can have my two computers connect to the same server?

Yes it you can use it to play online games. It is uses the same firmware as the RT314.

Well what he was wondering I think was, if you can connect to online servers, because online games use your IP and certain ports when you connect. Some games have trouble with the NAT of the gateway/router. As far as 2 systems connected to the same game server it all depends on what game you want to play. I know games like Half-Life, Quake3 and UT will work fine but some will not.

I ordered this from Staples pricematching to Outpost. $114.95 - $25 coupon - $30 mail in rebate = 59.95 + tax.
