Rating: - Don't buy SMC
Completely random blocking of functionality- sometimes I can click a link and it works sometimes I can't, sometimes I can send an email sometimes I can't. Problem goes away when not using SMC router. Repeated emails to customer support are repeatedly IGNORED. Would NEVER buy from them again.
Rating: - GET SOMETHING ELSE!
I saw some of the reviews on Amazon and thought that this router may be worth a shot.. So I got it.
Installation was a hassle, and I still can't get it to setup right. I have DSL, the router doesnt like to work for anything but "Cable".. I have my DSL running as "cable" with a bunch of tweaks just to get it to even see my modem. It works now, just not very well.
The settings were as basic as it gets, with no real 'power user' setup (what I want). Their "advanced" setup is ... Read More

Although I have ensured that there is adequate air circulation, and the ambient temperature never exceeds 70 degrees, it appears that these units are prone to overheating. (...)I found that my internet access was getting slower and slower, and my FTPs were aborting more and more frequently. Also, ... Read More
Rating: - Great value
I've had this SMC7004VWBR running for over a year on my home network. I share a DSL broadband connection with several home PC's. The Windows XP and Windows 98 PC's have worked very well connecting thru the router. This is not a perfect product but the value and features it offers for the price is hard to beat. I am impressed with the ability to configure the firewall. I use the browser based console to disable my son's internet access by time of day. I also use the URL blocking feature to filter ...

Rating: - No problem with installation
I was concerned with some of the comments, but decided to take the risk with the low price. I was able to set it up with little knowledge. It has been about a week and have had no problem. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get set up with a wireless router.
