Pretty Good! . I ordered this to replace a dying D-Link DGL-4500, the fancy one with the pretty display on top. In general, this wireless router takes many of it's queues from the D-Link DGL-4500 with regards to it's web GUI for set-up and control. I found it pretty familiar and the language it uses similar or the same in some places, so I understood how to set it up in my "unique" home networking environment rather quickly.To give you a grasp of what the router has to handle for me, there are 3 additional switches, with 17 full time on devices and another 10 intermittent use (iPads, etc) that must acquire DHCP from this router across my home. It is the heart of everything on the system and all internet traffic goes though it. A 24-port 1gbps TrendNet TEG-240WS comes off this router, has various devices running off it, then another 8-port TrendNet switch piggybacks off that for our home theater room, and a vintage Linksys WRT54g wireless router with everything disabled so it merely functions as a WAP for some dead spot wireless network coverage and to act as a distant switch for more stuff in another media room. I actually no longer have this dead spot with this new router, but still need the switch.So far, this router has been running since it was delivered, flawlessly. It stays relatively cool, has not had any detectable latency, and I have not had to restart it once, post it's initial configuration. I think TrendNet could do a little more web GUI interface refinement. For example, the DHCP list of devices on your LAN do not have the device names listed with them. This made it a bit of a pain to have it assign specific DHCP IP addresses to devices on my network that rely on from the outside to the inside of my network communication from various control apps, etc. I have to run around collecting hardware MAC addys for my devices. TrendNet listens to it's users, and I've already called them and suggested a refinement. In the past when I've done this, they've actually come through via a firmware update which is pretty cool.In Summary, the router is blazing fast, the wireless is stable and has a great (subjective) range on both it's N and G signals. I can now get to it from my neighbors house across the street, I couldn't do this with the old. My speedtests maintain a 8ms ping and 30d/4u mbps to my typical test server. I would knock off .5 star of the GUI stuff, and .5 star for the $ value compared to something fancy and blinged out such as my old 4500. I'm ok with function over form. I don't think the added radio adds THAT much more to the cost; this router costs quite a bit more than what I could have just bought another 4500 for.

TRENDnet 450 Mbps Concurrent Dual Band Wireless N Router (TEW-692GR) Reviews
Good Wireless Router!!!!!!!! . Cons: Signal range not as good as other wireless router.
Pros:
Small, When used from close range or direct line of sight this router is blazing fast. I am using a Killer(tm) Wireless-N 1103 wireless card on my Alienware M17xR3 and I am connected at 450Mbps with the 5GHz band.
When I first got this router I was a bit disappointed because the range wasn't as good as my other router and I was only getting 5Mbps download speed, but all of that change once I received my new laptop which included an newer wireless card. The new laptop and upgraded wireless card improved the download speed dramatically. My internet and download speed are the fastest ever. I only gave it a 4 because the range is slightly less than the two year old router that it replaced (Asus RT-N16).

Trendnet Router . Product arrived, unpacked & installed, even with rather complex (due to outstanding flexibility) setup in very short order. Performs flawlessly anddelivers both flawless wired (home network) and wireless connectivity.
Cons Review
Router ran at 1/2 speed worst customer service ever!!! . The router seemed alright, but I couldn't get the wireless transfer speed over 100Mbps, even though it's advertized as 450Mbps. I have a Cisco router that I use in my office and my laptop connects at 450Mbps all the time, so I know the issue is the router, not my laptop. Also, I was only a few feet away from the router during testing.I called TRENDnet and spent over an HOUR on the phone with two different reps. After verifying that all the settings were correct, they advised me to return the router to where I bought it and buy a different brand. I asked to speak to a supervisor three times and each time they refused. They would put me on hold and come back a few minutes later, but not get the supervisor.I just want to be clear about that: A Trendnet support rep told me to return the router and buy a different brand and constantly refused to transfer me to a supervisor. Not only did the router severely under perform, but their tech support was the worst I've encountered in a long time! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PRODUCT!
Tried two both completely useless . The first router arrived and I tried to configure it. The configuration screen wouldn't display in any browser I tried. There was something there, it just wouldn't display. Trendnet support had no idea and asked me to exchange it. The second one had the exact same problem and it wouldn't even connect to the Internet so I could look up the Trendnet phone number. After finding the number via my cel phone, the representative asked me to call back in 30 minutes. I'd had enough grief with this company and their products. The router was returned.
