Review on Belkin Wireless MIMO 4 Port Router by Michael Godo

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Ok, but not for streaming!

When I bought this router, I was under the impression that it was capable of video and music streaming. The router will stop buffering [.] after about 1:30, after which the page needs to be refreshed; Streaming music sometimes took up an entire song; [.] The chat lasts about 2 minutes, after that you need to update; Streaming radio is also about 1:30. If you want to play multiplayer games, this problem will definitely ruin your gaming experience. Technical support did not resolve this issue, it occurred on all my wired and wireless computers. However, this router never needed to be restarted, never disconnected users, always kept the same IP address for each PC and Mac, and was always good for email. Belkin's customer service is average. Always call India for technical support and USA for customer support. When I tried returning the router to Belkin, they clearly didn't want to accept it. I even ended up sending it back to Revain after 30 days for a full refund. Bottom line: if all you need is a router for surfing the web, buy a cheaper one. If you want one that works well, get an N with adapter. Much luck.
