I've never had any issues with the Belkin products I've bought.

I'll pay closer attention to thier products now though.
I've never owned Belkin, and it's like that for a reason. I take calls from people everyday. I have noticed that the Belkin equipment isn't as reliable. I get all sorts of issues with them. Everything from bad ethernet ports, to bad wifi transmitters. I have had people complain that their connection is intermittent, only to find their Belkin router keeps resetting on it's own, while the modem says up. I don't know if it is coincidence or not, but I know they seem to be more troublesome than most pieces of equipment. But I never wish malice on someone, so if your Belkin works, then wonderful. This is just MY experience.

EDIT: Perfect example, today, get a call, customer is getting a 169.254 address, powercycled router, still getting it, bypassed the router, and got a public IP. So something was wrong with the router, but all the while he kept saying "Well I've never had a problem with it before.." The moral of the story, none, except if you use a router, call the manufacturer for assistance if you're gonna leave it connected.

A Generalization of All Belkin Product's?
Their KVM switches work perfectly!

Let us guess you use a Microsoft router....
I'd argue that, at least the cheap 2-port PS2 models with captive cables. They tend to freeze up (requiring both connected PCs to be powered off). Had several of them, both at home and work, with the same problem. At least they were cheap.
