This is a good router when it works. Easy to setup, easy to do everything else. My first one failed at 6 months. My second one failed at 6 months. My third one failed at 6 months. My new router is a different brand & model and is not as easy but I haven't had to touch it in over a year. My routers are always on so I don't know if the heat got to this or not. I only paid $25 for them; I could've had one for less than $75 that was still working though.
