I called tech support and talked to them twice for almost TWO HOURS. They couldn't do anything to get the modem to work. They told me to borrow a friend's computer & download newer installation software.

There are NO pros

Can't understand the tech; Difficult To Set Up; Had to download new sftwr; Software didn't work; Tech support is AWFUL; Tech support is in India; Unreliable connection

This product didn't work. But I think I know why, it is probably because it is missing some parts, like the antennas that are supposed lit up and gives wireless signals.

A gorgeous, reliable bit of kit which, with a couple of easy to use unofficial firmwares can be made to be even better! You need the AMOD firmware and the MODFS firmware. A quick go with your favourite search engine will locate these.

I purchased this product in April 2013 from Wal-Mart online and found out through Netgear technical support that it was manufactured in August 2010 so the warranty had already expired. If I wanted assistance from Netgear with setting it up I'd have to pay for it.

This is my first entry into the lean and mean February contest I got the Netgear 3500 Wireless N rou

setup was easy; ethernet worked well

weak wireless signal; printer and PC wifi dropped too often; no push button wpa connectivity

I'm used to Netgear routers, so setup was easy. Speed and range are excellent when going through my 3 walls.

Good speed; Easy setup

Constantly drops ISP connection

The rest of the features were still working reliably but this unit does not otherwise have a WAN port. It now serves the house solely as a WiFi bridge.

Gigabit was perfect for streaming HD media

DSL Modem port quit working after only 8 months

It supports MacOS, UNIX and Linux as well as Windows even though Windows 7 was omitted from the list on the box. While at a price of £109.99 it may seem a little expensive, the DGN3500 can be found at lower prices if one looks around.

Netgear's DGN3500 is a neatly designed Wireless N router that works well, but could still be a little more Mac friendly.

Compact design; USB port for sharing storage devices

Setup software doesn't run on Macs

Netgear's DGN3500 is a sleek looking but expensive ADSL router with Gigabit Ethernet and a built in USB storage server. Like Linksys's recent routers, it has internal rather than external antennas, so they can't be upgraded to increase the power of your wireless signal.
