Not too hard to set-up in insecure mode.
Bad Points
Doesn't maintain link for more than a few hours. Derived from an already cheaply - designed router, this one even removes an antenna to cut costs. Unreliable in use. Newcomers to WiFi networks won't know if they or this router are at fault.
General Comments
Absolute junk from a manufacturer who should be ashamed to attach their professionally-known name to it. Bought from Comet for 50, but it does work so can't return it! Replaced by a cheap Chinese brand for around half the price which has lots more features and is reliable in use.
