This review is from : Uniden ENR1504 10/100 Ethernet Router (4-port)
Great Router . The ENR1504 Router has been a very good product to use and is easy to set up. I originally had a SMC 7004ABR router. I like how the new router allows me to open up ports (port mapping) so that I can get different applications to work through the router. The 7004ABR supposedly allowed ports to be opened, but the applications sometimes did not work with the change. A major feature of the ENR1504 is the included Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) feature of the Uniden router. The router uses SPI to examine each packet to make sure that the packet is legitimate. SPI is a definite improvement over my previous 7004ABR router. I also like the addition of Universal Plug and Play (UPnP). UPnP is "a networking architecture that provides compatibility among computers, networking equipment, software and peripherals."-ENR1504 Owner's Manual UPnP helps applications steer around the Network Address Translation (NAT). NAT is used to allow multiple computers to access the Internet from one internet protocol (IP) address. NAT can sometimes cause problems because applications are usually not built to go through a NAT device easily. Tech Support is friendly and helpful. About early March, I had a problem when the router stopped working. I tried working with the Uniden Tech Support to get the problem fixed. After a lot of help by Tech Support staff in trying to get the router fixed, I had to RMA the unit back to Uniden. About two weeks later, I received the fixed ENR1504. The Uniden router has worked ever since. My advice is to always get reviews on any networking or computer product from places such as Practically Networked, Epinions, or just typing the product's name and adding the word 'review' into a search engine. The same advice goes for any product you are buying from looking up the VIN number on a car to see the car's history to buying a good DVD player. I think it is also a good idea to be on the lookout for good deals on products you buy, such as going to Deal News or another comparison-shopping site.

Uniden ENR1504 10/100 Ethernet Router (4-port) Reviews
ENR 1504 is great for a hub . Do not have a cable modem or DSL but bought Uniden's ENR1504 because wanted to experiment with it on home network. Upgraded firmware, downloaded from Uniden website, without any problems. Currently using it as a four port 10/100 Mbps hub and it works great.

Cons Review
Works well unless you need one specific feature . Appears to be feature-rich at first glance, but if you are like me, and need to SPOOF YOUR MAC ADDRESS with your ISP because they have your computer's MAC address in their database DO NOT BUY THIS ROUTER. The MAC Spoofing feature does not work, and it causes the unit to be unable to obtain an IP Address from your ISP, and thus you cannot get online.UNIDEN technical support is open 24/7, but the person who took my call could care less to be working there. I was not walked through any kind of extensive testing or troubleshooting procedure. The only thing suggested was to press the reset button. After that failed, it was suggested I RMA the unit.I will be taking the tech's advice, however, I will not be getting a new unit. I will be getting my money back
