What's great about it:?Less than 30 minutes to set up. Fast communiations What's not so great:?None so far "I bought this product to enable wireless networking in my home and it was so easy to set up. I didn't even have to look at the user manual, just viewed the quick install guide. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Easy to set up, speed (fells like i'm on Fios), wi-fi, reliability, ease of use What's not so great:?none! "We rent this modem from our DSL provider (TDS) and we have never had any problems with it! It has wizards built into its firm ware that makes setting it up easy. from Bestbuy.com For years, I've had the following setup. Wired Speedstream modem connected to a wired Linksys router that was connected to a wireless Linksys router. For some reason, I couldn't connect to my work through VPN just using the Speedsteam modem to wireless router. from Amazon.com Purchased this as a replacement for an old Verizon Westell 327w DSL modem. Our network is mixed with one PC running Windows Vista and several Macs, including Intel and PowerMac wired desktops and wireless laptops, all running the current version of Leopard OS (10.5.8). from Amazon.com I purchased the Actiontec GT724WGR 4-port ADSL Wireless Gateway for my home network. I was so easy to set-up with my AT&T DSL service. from Amazon.com Having purchased our first laptop, I was looking for a wireless router and was reading the reviews of two of the most popular brands but wasn't really impressed by what I read....seemed to be a lot of problems and saying they didn't last very long. I bought the Actiontec based solely on the reviews I read on Amazon. from Amazon.com I decided to get this Actiontec GT724WGR Wireless Gateway after reading the reviews, especially the helpful ones regarding its interaction with Verizon DSL, which is the service I use. *If The Actiontec Doesn't Work When You First Attempt To Connect* from Amazon.com I have AT&T DSL, and my 2WIRE modem broke in less than 2 years. I bought this modem, and so far so good. from Amazon.com This item is attractive and powerful. Don't listen to the bad hype about the combo router/modem, this item is GREAT! I did have some issues with setup but the problems were on my DSL provider's end and Actiontec service was still very helpful in fixing them. The item has been working wonderfully for a month now. from Amazon.com I asked to be connected to someone other than tier 1 support. I sat on hold for 40 minutes. I gave up on ActionTec. Paid HP $35 for the privilege of having them confirm that there was nothing wrong with the printer, and suggesting that it was probably a configuration setting on the modem/router. from Amazon.com

Description

Building on years of DSL modem design and manufacturing, the GT724WGR is actually three products in one sleek package: a full-rate ADSL modem, a 4-port switch, and a wireless G router.Why clutter your desk or bookcase or multimedia armoire with multiple units when one will do?
