very difficult to setup [Posted on 2003-11-27]
I have tried to set up this hub with my home cpu and laptop and with no luck so far. I am using windows xp on both cpu's and I am getting frustrated with the whole thing, I am getting sorry I bought this hub, it shouldn't be this much trouble to set up a connection between my computers. I may take it back to the store where I bought it and find something a little easier to set up. If I do not succeed in getting help from the people who manufactured it, it is history.
These hubs have a problem! [Posted on 2004-04-22]
If you are using just a single hub you probably won't have any problems. If you plan on daisy-chainging them together, you will run into an issue where the hubs must be reset every week or so. They will initially work but then, without any reason, the link between them will quit working. We had Netgear 200+ hubs and found this problem in nearly all of them. Netgear support was of no help either. Since there was no way of reproducing the problem, they took the stance that there was no problem!
Amazon is Lying [Posted on 2005-11-07]
They claim this product ships in 3-5 days. It doesn't. It doesn't even ship after the extra 3-5 days for super saving shipping. I ordered this product on 10/10/05 and it still hasn't shipped. And they won't let you change the order, even though I have received three messages stating that I "may be able to." Customer service claims it is "in the shipping process" which is clearly a lie. Don't buy it.
Netgear just works!!! [Posted on 2006-08-28]
I've had my DS104 since October of 2001. It has worked in a multidude of different situations and has always performed flawlessly. I just recently bought a WGR614 for connecting 2 laptops to the internet and it was amazingly simple to setup. I spent 2 days trying to get a Linksys WRT54g to work and it finally just quit working altogether. Netgear makes some of the best products i've ever come across. However the Netgear FA311 NIC has some issues. I highly recommend these products for anyone seeking an easy solution to home networking.
Excellent price and product [Posted on 2007-01-09]
This is exactly what we needed to get my computer and printer online and working at the office.
