I have had this router for about a year and a half. Received it as a gift for Christmas 2001. When new this cost almost $270 because it has a built in print server option (windows only feature). Needless to say, it is only 1.5 years later and it has died completely. Luckily it is under a "2 Year Warranty". You would think that that would mean till December 03 since it was bought in December 01, however on the bottom it states the warranty period is up in April 2003 (I guess it was sitting a an e-tailers shelf for 5 months?). Luckily it died this week as opposed to two weeks from now when I'd be probably out of luck.While it worked it was ok. Not Great. I have a TiBook So I can only expect a decent signal at best. The signal transmitted was often varying significantly, even though I wasn't moving from my couch. I often had to reboot the modem , then router to get a strong signal once again. It is hard to determine whether these problems were more with the router or with the laptop itself but possibly a combination of both.
This is actually my second Asante. First one (a hard wired version) died 2 weeks out of the warranty period (warranty seems to go by the date stamp on the bottom of the unit) after I had already purchased this wireless unit. Needless to say, Netgear is probably the next one I will buy.
