📶 Belkin Connect N150 Wireless N Router with 4-Port 10/100 Switch (Previous Generation) Review

I see the previous review that highlighted wireless capabilities. I didn't use it primarily for that purpose. When I used it for wireless I didn't have any issues so it might have been a different situation. My predominant use was building an Ethernet home network. It was ideal for this: easy to set up, inexpensive and reliable.

This is one of the best routers I have ever used with ease of use, quick setup and good range. Although the speed is lower, it is often sufficient if you do not share the bandwidth with others.

I had this modem for almost 4 years, I got it while studying, everything I could afford at the time! Pros: Cheap, easy, good range. Cons: Often disconnects and requires a reboot. Setting up the router was a little fiddly, but that's fine, as long as you can use a browser you're fine. The worst part was that the signal kept dropping and I had to restart the router every time this happened. My Macbook Air was particularly bad, it just wouldn't connect. I would rather recommend spending a little…

After connecting the device as instructed, I could not connect to the internet. I contacted Belkin and was told they no longer support this model. It wouldn't even take you two minutes to explain how to connect to the internet. They wanted to charge me for calling premium technical support.

Don't be fooled by the shadow of the old model. It is ideal for a wireless router at home or in very small offices. I love the feature that allows you to program it to automatically restart on a regular schedule (mine is at 2am on Sundays), which usually fixes most problems with a home router.
