Does anyone use this?

A little (quick) background.

Last night my Linksys WRT150N router started doing what it has done
periodically over the last year - refusing to connect until I
completely reset to Factory defaults and then re-entered my settings.
However, last night nothing I did managed to get it to work any more.

I ran out and bought the Netgear WNR384B Next Rangemax router since I
needed the connection ASAP.

When I got home the Linksys was working, and has been stable for a
while. So before I opened the Netgear, I decided to check the reviews,
and was appalled by what I found. However, these were reviews that
were years old and many firmware updates have been issued - including
one just a week or so ago.

I probably will return it - since it is still unopened - but before I
do I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with this unit,
(version 2), especially with the Feb 2008 firmware update.
