Summary: Ok so far
Comment: This is my first wireless-n and gigabit router. So far the speeds are awesome, way better than my AirPort Express. But thats where it ends.
CONS:
-Set up with a static IP (which I had no idea I had) from basic Comcast cable internet service was annoying. Not plug and play or easy by any means. Apple AirPort, you just plug it in and it works.
-Wireless has cut out now a few times. I reset the router and it is back up and running.
-WPA works on my Macs, WEP works on my Linux machines, but I cannot for the life of me get them both working on either WPA or WEP together. Again, my little dead AirPort Express did this just fine.
-This thing is huge. The biggest waste of space I have seen in a 4 port router in a long time. With its size you should have about 12 ethernet ports in the back and still have room.
PRO:
-Its fast
-Web based admin is nice in that its platform independent. Though, this is the same crap interface from my last netgear from 5 years ago.
-The status lights on the front are nice, the useless ones at the top are just that. Wish it was a load indicator or activity or something.
-The price is pretty decent
All in all, I might not buy it again. I like it enough to keep it for now (12 hours in) but probably will stay clear next time and most likely not buy a netgear again. I can't believe I would say it but I will take the overly locked down, proprietary software/hardware, Mac requiring, overpriced Apple product over a netgear for simple ease of use and reliability.

Summary: This Netgear router is easier to setup and reliable as ever!!!
Comment: I owned a older Netgear Router that started to drop my internet connections. So I started researching for a new Wireless-N Router. After searching over product reviews and pricing. I wanted to make sure I buy a router that was future proof, well as least for awhile. So I choose this router because it was Wireless-N and Gigabit Router all rolled into one. I recently purchase a new HP that is also wireless. It was easy to connect and setup my wireless network for my printer. I have both hardwire and wireless devices on the router. I also love the auto update feature that is built into the router when you login into it. I recommend this product due to reliablity, easy setup with both hardware and wireless networks and pricing. Italia247 out.

Summary: NETGEAR WNR3500
Comment: This is a great system, easy to set-up, strong signal, no drops. My kids and wife use the laptop about 3-4 nights a week for homework or shopping. They just boot up the laptop and go.
I purchased this to go with my new fiber optic high speed internet as we choose to give up dial-up so the oldest can get homework done in a timely fashion. The installer set-up it up for me, 'cause NETGEAR is always a problem, of course he picked the WEP protocol and said that was easy and left. I bought it for the WPA2 and the local office supply store was closing out the notebook adapter for $20.00. Re-setting the security to WPA2 was easy, I just the used the supplied CD for the owners manual. I've got signal strong everywhere in my two-story and I can use the local how spot from corner coffee house, if only they did not turn if off at night...
No problems after 30 days.
