Currently this is the 2nd Netgear modem/router Im using, and I have absolutely not complaints, works sweet.
The only reason I had to buy a 2nd one as I gave the first one to my parents to use. |

I run 4 Netgear DG834's, soon to be 7 and I have some issues with them dropping out and needing to be reset occasionally at two sites but overall they do the job well for the $.

Most Belkin/Netgear routers are no good for torrents. They will bottle neck your download speed or shit themselves all together, losing internet connection.
It's possibly something to do with the memory of the modem(?) Im not entirely sure why, but as stated previously, Billion seem to be the better choice for P2P. |

I download torrents at great speeds while doing normal surfing with my Belkin no problems at all

^^ i beg to differ.. I'm running a netgear router at home (Telstra Supplied) and generally torrent at 8-9MB sometimes a bit faster. Has no impact on me streaming music and browsing the net at the same time either.
