i seriously doubt its the same warranty  as a new one, refurb warranties are often 90 days, 120 if your lucky


IMO get one on newegg, you get excellent customer service and a 30-day return  policy if it doesnt work, stay away from frys, 14 day exchange? fuck that




but seriously, if your having that much of an issue, you either need to look into changing the channel on the router, setting up security, ETC, from my room i can pick up probably 12 different wifi networks, 3 of which come from my own routers, and i never have issues even broadcasting 3 wifi networks from the same 10 foot radius


Yeah, as long as the antennas are 2-3 feet away from each other they should cause minimal interference. If they're too close though they'll reverberate off each other even if one of them is off. There's at least 3 routers in my house in a 20 foot radius.

i went with the E2000 and so far im loving it. i havent dropped yet which i cant say about my roommates old netgear ive been using the last week. i download and upload at godlike speeds compared to what ive been used to lately. im actually really content and the set up was easy. id recommend this to anyone who needs a new router at a reasonable price (its on sale at bestbuy for $79 through tomorrow)
