1 edit | said by rogue_  :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.
