Our Linksys is doing great (knock on wood). You do have to keep that password... when you work with it tho.
Our NetGear was awful.
Configuring with a laptop can be tricky depending on how the laptop is set up. Our old one was maddening, but that Dell program was lost when we put in the new harddrive, and now there is no problem. The new one with Win 7 has no problem either....but I think my son did something to bypass some internal thing. I remember we had a thing that searched,, on the old one...that was a bummer!
