A good price as it has free delivery. Cheapest elsewhere is $58 pickup.

Its an ADSL2 modem and has wireless.

Also avaliable, Dell Inspiron M101z Notebook for $551.65 @ 15% off.

Not live at the moment but judging by the past it should definitely go live. No payment information is needed until after the deal is live, and even then you can choose not to go ahead with the deal at any time.

      yeah even when i checked last week they where mainly negative…though its usually only the negative ones who speak up…

  • samfisher5986 on 25/01/2011 - 01:00

    Glad this was revived again :)

    I think something must be wrong, when I posted it the swarms started climbing, then it went back to 1 and stayed there….

      Yes it does look weird on Dell Swarm's side. Probably not a good enough deal as I for one would not buy a wireless-G router these days.

    From experience, it's a solid router if used with the right firmware. But yeah, it's old technology and there are more superior alternatives out there.

    Price is ok, but I've seen them a bit cheaper at some stores on clearance. Can't remember which store though.

    • leonheart1 on 25/01/2011 - 02:07

      …Oh boy.
      I've been using this router ever since I got ADSL 2+ a few years back but I've never even tried updating firmware.
      Better do it now!

        I use one and then have a gigabit wireless N router but I run http://dgteam.ilbello.com/

        • bargaintick on 25/01/2011 - 08:53

          +1 to DGTeam's firmware.
          Simple enough to use, increased stability/speed.
          Well worth the 5-20 minutes of your time setting things up.

        • Trance N Dance on 25/01/2011 - 09:13

          NVM
          Google solved my problem.

        • leonheart1 on 25/01/2011 - 14:49

          Wow, thanks!
          The custom firmware really seems to have increased speeds!
          I should have done this years ago. =/

        • busky2k on 25/01/2011 - 15:45

          Yep DGTeam's firmware is highly recommended. My old DG834Gv2 is still going after so many years.

    • G5 on 25/01/2011 - 08:49

      Pauly, are you talking about Netgear firmware, or is there some hacked firmware out there?

      Edit: Just visited the DGTeam link…

      • StalkingIbis on 25/01/2011 - 10:46

        is your picture a baby homestar??

      • pauly on 25/01/2011 - 22:10

        I had a bad firmware when I was using mine years back, so upgraded to one of their later firmwares (no, not the DGTeam firmware, but I'm aware of it). But this was many years ago, so I would think the newer ones would come shipped with a known stable firmware.

  • Bliind on 25/01/2011 - 04:42

    Does this support IPTV from TPG?

  • xit on 25/01/2011 - 08:53

    These are a really good small business modem/router IMO as they support 5 VPN endpoints. That can mean a lot when you have 2 sites with workstation clients only, who need to share data. Good buy!

    However I can only add 1 unit to the swarm purchase - is there a way to get 2 or more without multiple accounts?

  • Trance N Dance on 25/01/2011 - 09:12

    Still hasn't gone live facepalm lol

  • tonyjzx on 25/01/2011 - 10:45

    yeah must be popular

    i don't think the 11g is that bad… just buy a good 11n router and use it as an AP…

    btw. i think these routers are all completely hopeless for TPG iptv

    • c64 on 25/01/2011 - 11:31

      yes, netgear = no iptv support. that should be an important negative for people on tpg

      • wisc on 25/01/2011 - 16:59

        IP TV channels where crud, didnt watch them when i was with them… ohh wait, they did have the playboy channel!!

    a TP-Link TD-W8960N 300m Wireless N ADSL2+/4portRouter is only $69. imo you are better off spending an extra $20 and getting wireless n.

    • press711 on 25/01/2011 - 13:41

      I second this comment

        Not sure how this modem even made it to the first page? Just a standard ADSL2+ modem at a cheap (not bargain) price.

        • xit on 25/01/2011 - 21:23

          I really don't consider this 'just a standard ADSL2+ modem'.

          There aren't many cheap ADSL2+ modems around that offer such a simple interface as Netgear, or support for 5 VPN Endpoints (not tunneling, but VPN Termination). While this is moot to most home users, it is a godsend to small business owners with multiple locations and no real server for software VPN provisioning.

          What IS missing is 802.11n, Wireless Repeating, and a removable antenna (as the older v1-3's work great with a 5 or 6 dbi upgrade).

          I have lost count how many other brands I have replaced with the DG834g when cost is a factor while wanting to enhance functionality.

          PS. shame on any manufacturer who has open wifi on by default, or credentials such as admin/password. At least Netgear now have a wizard that runs to fix all on first use.

  • neophytte on 27/01/2011 - 15:49

    Well, I was in the situation where I needed a replacement DG834 (the current one got hit by lightning, and 3 ports fail to work!), so joined the swarm; got the original "welcome" email, but no email when the swarm was complete. So don't know what happened, but I bought a secondhand one from eBay for $25 inc. shipping … all's well that ends well …

    • scotty on 01/02/2011 - 16:11

      Always check spam folder — Dell Swarm coupon email seems to have tendency of landing in people's spam box.

  • wfdTamar on 15/02/2011 - 09:50

    Anyone got theirs? Three weeks and mine hasn't turned up.
