Has anyone used one of these to replace the junk Sagemcom modem/routers that Windstream sends you (I mean, reems you with)? Smooth install? Or touchy?

I don't know about Sagemcom modem/routers or Windstream, but I found this router to be a good step up from most routers that ISPs sell/ lease. It is easily set up as long as you have the correct specs from your ISP so you can program it correctly. It's probably plug and play if you are running one computer but it will take some set up if you want it to perform optimally with range extenders, smart TVs, game consoles, etc. Good lucK!

I replaced my AT&T; modem with a TP-Link and it was very easy to configure. If you don't have much experience with configuration of routers or wireless just follow the instructions. I haven't had any issues since installation and I've got around 12 devices connected to mine. Hope this helps.

We have Windstream, too, and are tired of their junky modem. Did you purchase this one? And did it work?

I used the router successfully for a few months until my Frontier modem died. They replaced it with a modem/router combo so I have a good spare router.

I am having trouble connecting my netgear 900 router in replace of my white tenda wireless router, any suggestions? It always shows no connectivity when I finish plugging in all the cables.

First of all I am having trouble getting it to connect to the internet via my AT&T 3G Velocity Wi-Fi adaptor. As for the rest of the configuration I used, which does work nicely. It wirelessly displays itself, you can attach to it and resources like my external network hard drive, printer, other computers via the HUB. I took the RJ45 connection (made it a LAN connection in the Hame software) to a 4 port HUB, , connected a 2TB network hard drive to it, router wise it works great. The Hame issues the IP address's so a mini network is established, just like at my NY home (FIOS network/wireless router), I am setting this up for use on my floating winter home, a 38' Ketch in Florida. Fact is it works great in every way except I have not been able to connect to the internet through it, yet. I download the latest software from Hame, still have to install and retest. I hope this answers your question.......

I'm using the ZyXEL WRE2205 with an Actiontec modem/router combo. I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't work. I have not had a problem with loss of wireless via the ZyXEL extender.

Mine slowed WAAAY down after a while. Worked initially...I just bought a SurfBoard after this and have had no problem. Comcast says this model is not 100% compatible.

I have a home network that uses Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8, my printer, a bluray player, and a kindle. Haven't had ANY problems at all. And it was the easiest install I ever had. Used the same network name and password as my old router and was up and running in literally minutes.

I'm using it with mediacom right now. They have to give you a code of sorts to complete the connections, so I would call them up for instructions, it's been awhile.

I have mine working with an Asus AC2400 router and I had to download a new firmware upgrade for my router. Worked fine after that.Did you call Edimax cusotmer support? They are actually pretty good. They can perform a remote diagnose.

I got it to work on my hp win7. The trick is to download a non-NETGEAR software version--IF--you don't have a NETGEAR Router. The most common software on line is from NETGEAR. If you download, it will detect missing router & not complete or abort. Look and you will find a working download software & IIRC most MS OS have downloads available

I have a cable connection and an ancient wireless-G router. I haven't experienced any connectivity problems. My only problem so far is getting used to WIN 8 (I'm almost 66 and getting set in my ways :-D).

Hello SCAT, I have purchased a total of 5 of this model, WZR-HP-G450H, new from Amazon. They all arrived in factory sealed boxes, inside the shipping boxes, and worked perfectly. I use 3 of them for connections to my 6 - IP network cameras, with hidden SSID's, and the 2 others for general wireless throughout our home. The pre-installed DD-WRT firmware gives me the capability of setting them up in wireless repeater configurations (Router/AP). My brother-in-law is using 7 of them also in wireless repeater configurations, along with high gain external parabolic antennas, to feed his network that's out almost 3 miles from where he connects to his ISP's cable modem. We love the performance of these units! Hello SCAT, I have purchased a total of 5 of this model, WZR-HP-G450H, new from Amazon.

I use my with the router that timewarner provides with its service. If I were you I'd Google to find out. Wish I could have been more help.

Not sure as it never really worked well for me, even after I updated the firmware. I had it plugged directly into the router too!

I purchased a wireless bridge but I was not able to make it work. I don't believe it was the fault of the unit, I just couldn't get the bridge to receive a signal from my router. I achieved what I wanted by purchasing a Roku so I returned the bridge. I will try again when I get more time. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

DD-WRT.com shows support for it. I'm gonna install it when I get my router in.
