Top VDSL Netgear router

Like many, I have read the negative reviews first and they have yet really got me thinking whether I should risk it to order this VDSL router. I habs then just done and regret it not a piece! My Speedport W732V I'm namely heavy on the mind - but more on that later. I have read that the router settings are too rudimentary. I can understand in any way! The tested by me V2.0.0.14_2.0.14 firmware provides a variety of settings, which are also described well (on the right side of the browser window). This criticism should simply forget when you look the device as a service-providing end helpers in his household and not as the center of his DIY end IT passion.
To set: Unwrapped, connected (the too short criticized DSL connection cable has been ca.1,5m long - there probably has been rectified) - connected to PC and registered telecom access. This took less than 2 minutes and I was online. Entertain worked on immediately (on a VDSL described as unfit 50,000 connection - again probably been rectified)
Of read Router Status:
Downstream connection speed 51390 kbps
Upstream connection speed 10046 kbps
USB disk as a DLNA device was also recognized immediately from my PS3. Unit after almost 3 hours IP-TV, online gaming (QoS prioritization working properly) and EasyShare use only warm - here was probably repaired.
Overall, I for Macfilter (8 network devices) + QoS + EasyShare + WiFi + WLAN clients (phones, Pad + printer) and DSL equipment used less than 10 minutes.
Of course you can call the menu guidance as obsolete, but if the router is behaving as I expect, I go there only for the firmware update and ran this menu item can be found simply.

Why I bought my Netgear router:
I had with the telecom equipment but trouble. It rebootete several times a week - without alerting my! In the logfiles this appeared on always with the comment that has been set, the system time successfully. HTTP connections were no longer possible but pings to eg 8.8.8.8 went by, mail traffic also fell. Telekom was even here for By measuring and statement was: line OK!
That told me whatever the nice ladies and gentlemen of the telecom support. So there was only the router.
Entertain TV (MR-303) had the Speedport W732V permanent audio dropouts among SAT1 HD and Pro7 HD - these are now gone.
Transmitter switch is now faster - the black moment between the transmitters is gone (about 1 sec.).
Website Structure: The IE9 also always needed something to my home he represented. ............... Click here!
Now it's so: Klick..da! Whatever responsibility is it is faster now - I'm glad it's there.
Unchanged, however, are the VDSL speed test results [...] I know that this online speed tests are not really meaningful, but to my connection without him compare with other VDSL lines that enough: ~ 48Mbit down and 8,7Mbit Up.
Now for the W-Lan: 2.4 & 5 GHz simultaneously - that make a few and sometimes considerably more expensive devices! I live in an apartment building and have 9! 2.4GHz SSID localized by inSSIDer.
I was able to save me on the channel 12 was not used, but the Channel 11 "rushes" as minimal with pure. The Netgear has 13 channels and now I am free noise in this region go. In the 5 GHz band, I'm completely alone, because part of my devices the 5GHz frequency support I can operate on separate frequencies - nice touch!
Also criticized the Stand is worth for me no criticism. The device is properly and stably and with 4x network cable + DSL cable off. Who needs what earthquake-resistant is hereby however badly served - from 40 ° inclination he falls over.

All in all: good equipment at a decent price = strong buy recommendation!
