When it works, its great
I have a love/hate relationship with the MR814. Yes, I realize its an inanimate object, yet the promise of it is tempered by the performance.
Why I love it
Wireless signal I have a small network in my house. The MR814 sits in my living room attached by cable to 2 desktops. Another...

The best 802.11b value I've ever seen!
Preamble
To be clear, I own, and am reviewing, the MR814v2. Netgear differentiates between the original MR814 model (aka the "MR814v1"), and the newer MR814 model, the "MR814v2". Most (if not all) vendors fail to differentiate between these two models clearly, but if you see the model...

Terrible support, long hold times, difficult setup, waste of time
I've had PROBLEMS with this one since day one.
Sure, it was a good deal, but it's been a massive waste of my time. And here I am spending more time out of my day - after having just called Netgear support - to warn YOU not to buy this brand. LinkSys seems to have a LOT more reliability...

Great little router
I have owned this router for three years now with few problems. I run a small office with this router, a few wired PC's, a printer & several wireless desktops and notebooks. It rarely drops a connection and is always connected at 11mbps.
I know some have complained about this router...

Go for it! As long as you like slow.
This little router is the cheapest around! But cheap is not even close to being good. This thing goes at a sub standard 11 MBPS (Standard being 54 MBPS). If it was any slower I would recommend burning the packets to floppies and carrying them back and forth. Granted it is not that bad if you use... Read full review »
The Idiot Box
Gather ye round the campfire, folks, and I'll play you a little tune, and tell you a story about a quartet of routers. Because there is a story here, and you're going to have to sit through it.
The world is turning into a wireless place, and much as I am loathe to admit it I'm doing the...

Be careful... Very careful!
Prior to buying the MR814v2 I used an MR314 for about 2 years, and was quite satisfied with it. Last month the MR314 failed (lost its wireless connection, but continued to provide service to hardwired computers) and it was time to get a new wireless router.
I got the MR14v2 at a local...

NetGear MR814 - The only known disposable router.
I purchased this router about six months ago for the low price of $60. The setup was easy and only took minutes to complete. There were many features on this router that you could not get anywhere else for the price, such as NAT, VPN, Firewall, 128-bit wireless encryption, etc. Having both wireless... Read full review »
cannot get netgear to honor its warranty
I Bought a wireless Netgear Mr814 almost a year ago. After a couple of weeks of usage the wireless connection started to break up. Assuming i had interference from my unshielded TV cables, I hardwired ethernet connections to the router and everything worked fine. A couple of weeks ago I started to... Read full review »
Moderate performance at a good price
I purchased the MR814 just over a year ago to extend the wired network in my office to include wireless and save having to plug in laptops using the RJ-45 jacks.
I found the Netgear router hard to set up, but most of this was trying to make it compatible with:
(a) an existing wired...
