The connectivity is excellent compared to any other router I've tried. No dropped connections, high-quality video streaming, and wireless speed is capable of handling the full speed of my broadband connection!
Netgear makes a quality product and I would recommend going with them if you don't want the hassle of trying to figure out why your connections slows down or drops with other brands. The gigabit ethernet speed is also a plus! The router can handle local traffic on my network (e.g. streaming from network attached storage) even faster than my broadband connection, as well as transfer files quickly between devices.
