    Simple Setup
    NETGEAR has made setting up network devices as painless as possible with their interactive Installation Assistant that guides you through setup step by step. Configuration is done through an easy-to-use web interface.

    Outstanding Performance and Security
    The RP614 features four auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports that will figure out each network connection without any need for manual switches. The RP614 allows for transfer of movies, music and photos at up 200 Mbps so the video and sound will be clear.

    Two security methods are utilized to keep the network secure: Network Address Translation (NAT) and Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI). SPI safeguards against popular Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. For parents, content filtering allows you to set filters so that children are unable to reach websites with certain keywords or domain names, such as those associated with pornography. Web access can also be limited by the day of the week and time of day.

    Styling That Fits In Your Home The RP614 has a svelte design with silver-and-gray styling that won't look out of place in your home.

    The NETGEAR RP614 Web Safe Router with 4-Port 10/100 Mbps Switch is backed by a 2-year warranty.

    RP614 Router Gateway, resource CD, power adapter, Ethernet cable, and warranty/support information card.

    5 out of 5 stars Worked Without A Hitch   January 8, 2003

    Setting up the Netgear router to share our DSL line was terribly easy. The directions are clear and set-up is quick and simple. It includes a CAT5 cable and a little vertical mount which makes the router look very slick. You don't have to install any software or drivers; there is just a simple test procedure which takes a couple of minutes. The Netgear physically behaves like a server, and it has some solid security features. Also, installing the router actually solved problems that we originally had with the DSL modem, and it has behaved itself nicely since we set up the network. Accessing the router's features is simple- you log onto the Netgear by typing "192.168.0.1" in your browser window. Configuration is simple and straightforward. The RP614NA is a fine product and reasonably priced.


    5 out of 5 stars Great Low Priced Router, Easy setup   December 2, 2002
    14 out of 15 found this review helpful

    I picked this router up after doing some research on customer reviews on different brands/models. I was deciding between this RP614NA and the FR114P (also Netgear). I finally decided on this one after it ended up in my Amazon gold box with an additional discount. The router setup took about 20 minutes for 2 PC's sharing AT&T Broadband Cable. (One XP and one Win 98SE). Another 10 min and I had the network up and going (file/printer sharing). Probably would have went even quicker if I had more networking experience. As far as speed, I haven't noticed any drop by adding the router. The bandwidth test on CNet comes up about the same depending on the amount of traffic. I have not used the port forwarding or content filtering features, yet, so I can't comment on that. The only thing I wish it had is the DoS and SPI security features of the FR114P. However for half the price, I can't really complain. If you are looking for an inexpensive router with basic features and easy setup, I would definitely recommend the RP614 based on my experience. If you want the additional security features and internal print server, you might check out the FR114P.


    5 out of 5 stars Excellent router   September 20, 2002

    Purchased this router through Amazon on a Saturday and got on Tuesday. At the time I bought this router there was a [$$] rebate promotion going on so I was able to get this at a very good price. I had thought about getting a Linksys router but had read about so many problems people were having with it, such as, unable to configure, humming noises coming form the unit, poor customer service, and only a 1-year warranty! I hooked up this Netgear RP614 to my PCs, one using Windows 98se, the other with Windows XP Pro, and didn't even have to use to setup wizard, they were configured and running right after I rebooted them. Now all I have to do is install my access point to this router and I will be able to roam throughout my house checking email and viewing webpages once I get new PDA with Wi-Fi wireless. This has to be one of the easiest add ons I have ever installed on my system. I highly recommend this router for anyone that wants a non-problematic install. And Netgear offers a 3-year warranty, too!


    5 out of 5 stars The Best   January 28, 2006

    If you've got a broadband cable modem and 4 or fewer computers to hook up to the main feed, this is the router you want. I had a Linksys router, and for 4 years thought, this is as fast as it gets?

    On a hunch, I decided to try a new router, and chose this model. Hookup was EASY. There is a CD that comes with the unit, and the CD tells you what to do, step by step. Not only that, it performs tests each time you perform a step, to see if you did it right.

    My broadband speed is now four times faster than what it was with the old Linksys unit. Incidentally, I also use VPN, and had zero issues getting a connection with this router.

    A great product, highly recommended.



    5 out of 5 stars Wow, I can't believe it was that easy!   October 3, 2002

    I'm very surprised with the ease-of-use capability with this cute little router. Performance is amazing, with better specs than most routers. And the looks are perfect for the home, it looks like a sardine can with easy-to-read light indicators.

    I tried this router with my PC, XBox, and Dreamcast (yes, I will always love this console no matter what people say), and they work perfectly online. Once I receive the PS2 Network Adaptor, then I will test it as well, but I don't foresee any problems. You also get a vertical stand, a straight network cable, and free privacy software.

    This router is a nice package and it actually works! I've heard problems with Linksys, SMC, and D-Link (and believe me, I've researched long and hard for the perfect router), but Netgear has instantly won my rave for the company and its products. For the price and performance, the RP614 router is a best buy recommendation.
