I have a computer and a ps3. I use both to use to stream videos, etc. Is the router good for me?

This is a cable based router not wireless. So if you connecting with cables then get it. If you want wireless then this is not what you want.

I have 35Mbps and it works fine. I was able to use it with a split Ethernet cable connection to my router also without any problems. I would advise against using a wireless connection based on my experience though.

Have you had any problems at all connecting your Ps3 to the internet with this router. Do you connect using a Ethernet cable? Can you please give me some instructions on how to connect?

I don't know if I would necessarily draw the conclusion that the router is no good. Wireless network setup can befuddle most novice users (and can even make experienced users pull their hair out). The #1 mistake most of the reviewers on here make is that they don't upgrade the firmware as the first step. That goes for any router though. It took me about 2 days of research before deciding in this router. I just ordered it though, and it won't arrive until Wednesday, so I can't give you my feedback on it yet.

My router and extender are in 2 different buildings roughly 150' apart. I can stream video without buffering and internet speed is very good. Been using this unit for about 5 years now. Setup can be a little confusing. Just check and recheck that extender settings match with routers settings. The smallest of adjustments make all the difference. Don't just use the quick settings. Use the manual settings to check.

Use a 5ghz network for all devices that are wireless n network capable, which will increase your speed significantly. For devices that are only wireless g network (2.4 ghz), try choosing another channel such as 1 or 6. Our PS3 is only 2.4 ghz capable, and it makes watching movies or streaming very very slow. Sometimes we just open the door to the nursery and turn off the monitor if we want to stream for a few hours.

The router have more than enough capabilities for your devices. Since is a dual band model it handles traffic rather well, also Netgear 's Genie software will notify you of any changes. Their customer support is good. Keep in mind that if you are using all of them at the same time the router response time will slow down a bit.

I have one more question I'm going to buy a ps3 soon but I'm in the attic and the router is on the first floor. There are only 2 floors and then the attic in my house. seeing as how the signal has to go through the 2nd floor before it reaches me, is this still a good router and can i expect my connection to be "laggy"? I juss dont want to be losing signal in the middle of a game or not getting the best picture quality from netflix. thanks for any advice.

I use my PS3 to stream my songs and videos to my HDTV. As stated, this unit has built in support for Windows Medial Connect, so once you enable this feature on the home server you will have access to all your medial files (songs, videos, pictures).

I have the TREND net AC1750 and have been more than pleased with its capabilities. When buying a new router I did so much research i knew more than the sales people at most retail stores (best buy, office depot). This was the best one available and had a great price at $140. I have a 30MBS internet connection and that is more than enough for streaming on multiple devices at one time. Let me know if you want anymore information...

I stream from a SMB server on my network just fine. It's a USB HDD enclosure on the router, the router supplies the SMB server itself, it should work well for you.

If the router has up to date software you should be able to load it without to many problems.I bought one the software was not current so I had to contact their help staff. They had me up and running within a half hour.

Can't answer that. It does stream youtube Hulu type vids well (what I got it for), but my guess it would not do well for gaming.

I am sure it would work with any usb internet as that is why I got this item, I use Verizon usb internet connection and it works great in this router. As for connecting to the PS3, I can't say. but if you can connect to any router I don't see why not... I have 2 Wii's connected to this router! Hope this helps!

Yes, if you don't want to buy filters to put around your house, just make sure your router has the DOCSIS 3.0 Firmware like the Motorola Surfboard Extreme SBG6782-AC DOCSIS 3.0, it has all in 1 device, it's pricey I'm not gonna lie to you, but it's a one time and there you are done, you can put as many MoCA adapters you want around your house, I have this device in my Living room and 3 one port in my rooms to stream my Roku boxes and it works great, grant it I have TWC 100mbps internet so your internet speed has to be good so you can stream with no lag.

It is just like any other CAT5e and should be fine. I have had no issues with it and tried my PS3 on it with no problems.
