    *** Sound Purchase! *** worth the extra savings, April 21, 2006
By user (TN-USA)
This router exceedss all the secutiy features of other routers with enhanced security features.
- Parental control - excellent, fully automatic and easily customized
- Virus, Spam, and Spyware Protection for the whole network
- email settings - this feature emails logs of all sites visited and any blocked pages.
- Keyword blocking
- Excellent true 108MPS and range
- Easy Setup - although my setup did challenege the standard since I use a firewalled router/modem for DSL that was trying to assign an IP address in the same range, but Tech support was very effecient and friendly.

I purchased one unit and the entire network is protected. This is the way network protection should work. I have tested products from the following manufacturers and reccommend this product over the competition because they do no offer the same richness of features, nor the complete protection this product does for the price.
Linksys - WRT624
DI-Link - DI624


    Solid Router, good range, February 1, 2006
By user (St. Louis, MO USA)
As a network admin, I am usually more apt to buy Cisco (Linksys) items for the quality of product. I have had Netgear routers in the past and been unimpressed with their range and stability.

Now that I have a new house and others who share my bandwidth, I needed to find a router that offered some security and range improvement over my year old Linksys Wireless G.

So I purchased this router for $79 figuring that I'd give it a shot. I have been well pleased with it!

Firstly, its range is a lot better than my Linksys (my Linksys also had the added range antenae's). My whole house has strong coverage so I don't need the access points anymore!

The built in parental controls are nice. None of these are perfect, but so far the WGT624SC has done a great job. This router includes a security package of a Firewall, Antivirus and antispyware from Trend Micro that's free for a while. I am not using it as I only have a couple Windows boxes that are running Sophos security software. In my house though, are Macs, Linux, and Windows machines that all happily use this router. The router based controls are great because you can control the content that your kids are getting without worrying about them figuring out how to uninstall software on their comps.

Additionally, your kids friends who bring over their computers to play games etc all get the same parental controls.

I am quite pleased with this little router and would recommend it to anyone with a family or anyone who shares their Internet connection.
