Netgear DG834G

Hi

Thinking of trying the Netgear DG834G, has anyone had any issues connecting to xbox live and playstation network.

Not me, Steve, but then my idea of gaming is to come on here and pick posts to answer at random.

The 834 should be fine, though.

I can't really say for XBox, haven't a clue. But provided you have the correct setup, such as ports etc, the PlayStation network works fine enough. I miss Metal Gear Solid 3 online...

Not sure about XBox and PS connection, but I can thoroughly recommend the 834G - had mine a few years now and not a minutes bother

Hmmmm  dont know about this. I have the dg834pn which is the wireless one and Ive had a bit bother with my sons PS3 dropping the connection and getting on to the playstation network but it could just be the wireless side of it, havent figured it out yet.

apart from that the router itself is top class

The Wireless side of the pn used to drop for me, it also with its first firmware would randomly block some messenger programs or just not connect but they changed its firmware since then , at the time I went back to a 834G as I never got the speeds the router was meant to give and the mimo technology didn't seem to make that much difference as far a blackspots were concerned the 834G never caused me the same issues with wifi though and I use a wifi extender which works fine with the 834G  there were quite a few threads at the time about issues with the DG834pn and wireless problems

I have a Netgear DG834G router and my xbox 360 works fine through ethernet.

Bit late arriving here, but I've got this router and use it for my Xbox360, 2 PCs and a laptop. Everything works fine, and is really easy to set up

Oh I should add that I don't use wireless as I've got a video receiver in my room that goes nuts when you turn the wireless on (and I don't mean the radio, for all you oldies ).
