What's the difference between this model and the "V" model? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASI...

Hi Kevin. Not entirely sure as I only have the non-"V" model, but my best guess is that my model's key pad lights up when using it whereas I cannot find in the "V" product description if that is true. If that is the case, I find it a useful feature and probably worth the couple bucks extra. Hope that help! Tim

Newegg lists the V2 for the same price. Amazon can't be bothered to update their listing, just buy from Newegg.

Sorry, but this is the only model I bought, so I don't know other than what is in the descriptions of others. You could Google reviews for others. That might produce some info.

I am in the process of purchasing one or the other. I am not sure what the differences are. Can someone help me out too:F. Jackson

I don't know what they mean by "old version"...pictured is the same V2 we purchased about six years ago and also the same unit currently being sold at B&H. Unless there's been some software or firmware update that I'm not aware, I think it's the same beast it's always been.

Sebastian, thanks for the valuable info! Could you also tell where did you get this information from? I hope that source was not static and it gets ongoing updates about newer models ..

I got it 2 days ago from Amazon. &gt;&gt; Is it true this model doesn't have front facing video camera? NO front facing video camera &gt;&gt;Also does this use flash memory or a mini harddrive? I did not disassemble to find out, but I can heard little noise when extremely quiet and saving large files. So, I think it is mini harddrive.

I don't know if there is a diference between models. I have it since 2012 and works great. Sorry!!

The "R" version is only 8-bit color. The other two have 10-bit color. There's some conjecture on the net that the two 10-bit versions are identical except for a firmware update that makes the "V" version respond faster. (Less lag.) I haven't been able to confirm this.

Where do I check to tell if I have a rev21 board or the ev15 board?I purchased the 37AV and it says WNDR37AV-Rev1 on the box. I have not even checked to see what the actual unit has labeled on it but I will tonight. Funny, when I registered it my only choice by product number was WNDR3700. I have had only one problem with it not working correctly but that seems to be attributed to my modem and not the router.I really do not want to have to return it but will not hesitate if I have the lessor quality board. Thanks.

I just went to walmart.com (1/27) and they have the SV421XVT at $897. Perhaps you were looking at the VO420E for $638.

I just opened the box and saw that it's a V1. I fully expected that the V1 stock had run out from Netgear by now and they would be refurbishing V2's only. But this DealFisher must still have some old V1's to move out. So it is luck of the draw. I'm debating about keeping since that price is so low compared to new V2. And eventually, I'll upgrade one of these to a Nighthawk R6 or something that really has lot more power. It's only the farthest corner of my house that could use the Beamforming benefit. Also, I have no need of the USB 3.0 since I don't attach a hard drive or printer to these routers. I just opened the box and saw that it's a V1.

Thanks for the info! I was really curious to know what the difference was between the two and could never get an answer that made any sense, until now. I went ahead and ordered the W, and I'm very pleased so far.

I did search out your post (Ryuji Suzuki), and think it adds to the discussion; http://www.amazon.com/gp/cdp/member-reviews/AYCAIHABPYWVJ?ie=UTF8&display;=public&sort;_by=MostRecentReview&page;=5 . Since my grocery outlet no name model lasted a month of daily use, I'm ready to search out a long lasting model. Cheers

Looks pretty close but from my quick search the VX3 is model #V1950 and this one is #V1930. Beyond that, I don't see much difference.

I really don't know the difference but I can say the one I bought from Amazon is very low quality. It needs to be reset every day. I'd look for a different option.
