- Belkin Wireless G+ MIMO Modem Router

-The Belkin Wireless G+ MIMO Modem Router is for those who have an ADSL connection. Here's a nice picture of the Belkin, though. Use with: Wireless G+ MIMO USB ADAPTOR Review The Belkin Wireless G+ MIMO Modem Router is quite easy to set up for novice wireless users, which can be a big plus. It produces great wireless results from 1 to 25 metres in range. But only when used with the Wireless G+ MIMO USB Adaptor above. It can be difficult to get a Centrino laptop to communicate with this router. And when you do, the results are not that impressive. Sometimes won't pick up a signal at all over wider ranges with a Centrino laptop. One other negative point is that it doesn't ask you to set up WEP/WPA security, so you have to set this up manually in the confuguration pages. This is relatively straightforward, though. Antennas are fixed in place on the router, so you can't unscrew and replace them with bigger and better ones. This is not too much of a worry, if you're using it with the recommended USB adaptor.
