| bostonsox's Full Review: Dell TrueMobile 2300 Wireless Broadband Router (TM... |
I bought this router a long time ago so I do have extensive experience with this router. I bought this router because I would purchasing a Dell PC last December and it was easy to just throw this router in with my new PC. The setup was okay. The provided software is a piece of junk, its usually wrong and often crashes. You can use the web interface which occasionally works. These problems are relatively small problems compared to my big problem with the Dell TrueMobile 2300, The wireless is horrible! At least once or twice a day the wireless connection drops out and you need to restart the router. I installed the latest firmware and this did nothing. I will never buy any product from Dell again after using this shoddy product. Avoid this product at ALL costs. The wired LAN works perfectly but you can get a router without wireless capabilities for a lot less. I repeat, DO NOT get this router.
