OCC Review: Belkin N1 Wireless Router, Desktop, Notebook, and USB Cards
QUOTE When I was asked to review the full slate of N1 MIMO products from Belkin, I was excited. First, because my wireless setup was admittedly getting a little old, but second, because I had heard good things about Belkin, and felt that this would be a major upgrade for my system in a number of areas. This review had me happy with some features to begin with, but as I went on, I was reminded of something my parents said to me when I was a kid and had failed a test: “We aren’t mad at you, but we sure are disappointed.” Boy, does that hurt.  -------------------- OCC Rules || OC Basics || OC Software  | Intel E8400 | Asus P5Q | 4GB of G.Skill PQ 8000 RAM | Palit 4850 512MB Sonic | PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610 | | 2x 320GB in Raid0 for OS + 750GB for data | D-Link DNS323 w/2TB for Media | |

Draft n tech sounds so promising that it must indeed be very disappointing if you can't experience the benefits because a product has these kind of issues.
Including software that is known not to work is an error that should be easily avoided.

My last wireless router was a Belkin and I had nothing but problems with the connection dropping out all the time.
I went to my local PC parts store and bought the cheapest one they had and I have never looked back. It works perfectly. --------------------  <E8500+Zalman 9500>||<GA-EP45-DS4>||<Corsair 4GB (TWIN2X2048-6400C4 X 2)>||<2 x Asus 9600GSO>||<2 x WD320GB>||<Antec Signature 850W>||<Win XP Pro>||<Samsung 2032BW & Acer AL1916W> Folder:<E6600>||<DFI Infinity 975X/G>||<2GB Buffalo Firestix>||<XFX 8800GS>||<WD200GB>||<OCZ 600W>||<Win XP Pro>||<Iiyama Prolite E380S> |
