First Time Wireless Network Deployment, May 24, 2004
By user (Fairfield County, CT United States)
I purchased this product for an awesome price online. I debated whethe I should give this product a 4 instead of 5, reason being I had some installation issues. The issues were primarily due to my ignorance of wireless networking.
What changed my mind was their excellent customer support. There is a toll free number listed on the outside of the box, touting free customer support.
After struggling with getting my network up and running for 3 hours, I decide to try the toll free number. I did not try the number earlier, since I have found in the past that those toll free customer support numbers were primarily used as marketing hype to push the product, and needless to say the tech support was marginal at best.
Not the case with Toshiba. No long hold times. No incoherent Chinglish (Chinese-English). The tech actually new what he was talking about, and had me up and running in less than 15 minutes.
Highly reccomend this router.
Please be aware that there have been two firmware upgrades on this router, both available online, on Toshiba's website.
I use this router with an SMC Wireless Cardbuss Adapter (SMC2635W), and I get excellent range, never dropping less than 90% in signal strength within about a 200 foot radius from the router.
I'm not sure if this latter fact is due to the router, or the wireless cardbuss adapter.
