Review on πŸ”Œ NETGEAR AC1200 WiFi DSL Modem Router: Fast Dual Band Gigabit Internet Access (D6200) by Bill Dahl

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Will be great once up and running

Over the years I have owned, configured and serviced a dozen different brands of Wi-Fi routers. It has some really neat features that make it stand out. Reserving normally floating LAN addresses is cool. No need to assign fixed addresses from floating addresses. The only difficulty I have is that the wi-fi internet is not working. Support doesn't work either. I sent an email connected via wi-fi, registered on the map but no wi-fi internet, and gotten questions about the wired topology answered. So my advice is if you need something that works today, choose a different brand or model until they get it out there. I still have a few hours to kill. And I'm in pain, so I'll do a factory reset, stick with the default settings, and who knows, the next few hours might be more profitable than the last. So a factory reset made it fully functional. My previously set IP addresses must have meant that simply setting the IP address wasn't enough.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • A lot
