I'm very interested. I have been using a DIR-655 for a while, and I told myself that the next router I get, it will be dual-band. Yet, I ended up getting the WZR-HP-G300NH. That is on top of my Avaya, Cisco, SMC and Netgear earlier generation routers....

It's already listed on NETGEAR - Networking Solutions for Home and Business. But can't find it on any of SLS price list though.

Hey Da, thanks for the help previously


The 3700 is not available yet on Amazon, TigerDirect, Walmart, NCIX and NewEgg, Bestbuy.

Seems only available from their online store? USD190

Seems that Netgear may have under-estimated the enthusiastic response. That's why a lot of places are out of stock.

Still can't find the WNDR3700 in SLS yet. Tried looking for the IDA approval for this device but also found nothing.

Does it take that long? The Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH was available even before Tom Higgins reviewed it. I don't think Tom was slow in getting the review model. In fact, I saw dual band N models from Buffalo in SLS even before I could find reviews of them on the Net.

You mean smallnetbuilder?
The reason why they only managed to review it at a later time is because buffalo was injunctioned to sell wireless product at one point in time, in the USA that is. It makes sense that a review set was not provided until much later

USD $160 from Amazon!

Reviews start pouring in

Has some flaws in performance, when comparing with other top end routers.
