Editorial Review: Product Description: Looking to get your whole office online without shelling out thousands of dollars? If so, the XRouter Internet Sharing Hub offers the perfect solution. This amazing Ethernet-to-Ethernet hub connects an entire network of up to 252 users to the Internet using only one ISP account and one Cable or DSL modem. The high-speed bandwidth is divided among the users who are online at any one time. The XRouter offers a familiar, intuitive Web-based configuration. With its DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server, the XRouter eliminates the hassle of typing long, messy strings of IP addresses by automatically assigning TCP/IP values to each computer. The XRouter also doubles as a 4-port hub to provide networking services as well. And it is the least expensive solution of its kind on the market today. Whether your environment is a small company, home office or a classroom, the XRouter is the affordable choice for you. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Terrific routerI wasn't sure what to expect. I had never set up a network before. We just built a house, put in CAT5e throughout and wanted internet up and running using just one cable modem. This thing is a dream, hooked up the cables, configured one computer, which took about 3 minutes, and all the other computers were recognized and online as soon as I turned them on. It couldn't have worked any better. Absolutely terrific product and piece of idiot proof technology. Rating:  - Good Unit - But CHECK THE FIRMWAREI've installed several of these XRouters, and everything is great wth one Glaring Exception. They are still shipping units that need a firmware update, and the last firmware update is from mid 2001. A year and a half isn't enough time to get the new firmware into the unit? Terrible waste of troubleshooting time. So, just be sure to check what firmware # is in there, against their website, before wasting any time configuring it. Once that's done, it's a rock-solid little unit, and works great with ... Read More Rating: - Set it up once and forget about it. It just works!I've been using the Xrouter Pro for almost a year now and it totally rocks - I've had zero problems!! This is the router that I recommend to all of my friends - even my mother. Setup is very easy and straight forward; it only took me about 10 minutes to get it up and running. The built-in PPPoE support works flawlessly (I'm on BellSouth.net). The unit passes VPN traffic with no problem. I've even got an 802.11b access point plugged into the Xrouter Pro and can establish a ... Read More Rating: - Buy this one. Not the Netgear RT314. You'll be happy.The MIH130 works. Plain and simple. It was very easy to install. Easy to upgrade the ROM. I needed to talk to their tech support. They picked up after about 15 seconds and offered some excellent advice which helped speed the throughput by about 300 percent. I can pretty much say the opposite for Netgear. They used to be a good company with good products. The first RT314 I got was broken. I think. That's what they told me. 24/7 support? Ha! I was on hold over the weekend for over 30 minutes. I hung ... Read More Rating: - Great For PPPoEI am very pleased with my MacSense XRouter Pro. I am using DSL with Earthlink as my ISP, and they had me using MacPoet, a program which implements the PPPoE protocol and needs to be running before you can get to the internet. The XRouter handles PPPoE internally, so that your individual computers no longer have to run MacPoet or anything else. The "always on" promise of DSL is at last a reality! Now all I have to do is start my browser or email client, and I'm connected. The MacSense web site also ... Read More |
