Microsoft Networking 10/100 Ethernet 4-Port Router Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is an extremely easy device to set-up. The documentation is clear, and would make it very easy for even the novice to use. Also this is a very small device. You are able to stand it on it's side and and it takes up practically no space. You can't go wrong if you need this type of item.
I would also recommend, if you don't want to use or install the network card, the USB/ethernet adapter. It is another good ad-on.
Put your bad feelings toward MS aside, and give this a shot.
