i told them up front what was wrong they took down my phone/email if i dont hear anything tomorrow i'm going to contact them again and again went through 3 people today i told them just to give me an RMA # the router is bad

That's why you need to buy a good router (Netgear).

Netgear sucks ... IMHO.
I had a Netgear WLAN PCMCIA Card for my Notebook some time ago - caused my nothing but Trouble.

I have a Netgear FVS318 Router/Firewall and I went to Netgear after trying numerous Linksys Routers and THEY suck. I have never had a single problem with my Netgear and I have had it going on 3 years. I couldn't get a Linksys to last more than a few weeks. And their support REALLY sucks.

I only had to get my Linksys router replaced once, at that was because ++++ kept falling on it.

I have both a Netgear WGT624 Wireless Firewall Router and a Netgear WG111T USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter.

Once I reset the router to it's default factory settings, everything has been working like clockwork since..

I had the same thing happen with Vonage, when a router went bad. I was on my celll phone for 2 hours, connected to 5 different people off/on and they all told me the same exact procedure to try (for rebooting the router) and of course it didn't work. I asked the first guy for a RMA, and it wasn't until 2 hours later that the 5th guy finally gave me one.
