Eighty-Nine Percent Pure Junk

So I have completely disconnected my new WiFi router. It just continued to give me nothing but trouble. After rebates (which probably won't show up for another 6 to 8 weeks) the whole experiment will have cost me around $60. I suppose I should chalk this up as a life lesson, but some part of me wants to call "Shenanigans!" on the folks at Netgear.

Just remember, folks. Once you cut the UPC off the box, you can't take a defective piece of equipment back to the store for a refund. I wish that the problems with the router started the second I got it home, instead of working fine for a few days and suckering me into keeping it.

If anybody has had any luck getting a Netgear WGR614 (v5) to stay working for more than an hour at a time, I'd love to hear from you.
