With the exception of the led indicator on the toggle switch model, I have several Jasco/GE smart zwave switches. The paddle model switch led indicator works as described and is configurable using the smartthings hub and the toggle indicator on all 3 switches I have has never worked with the smartthings hub. All other functions work perfectly well, and the indicator light has never been a big issue ( only confusing since it's described in the instructions and I've never seen it.)
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Apple airport express base station is easy to configure, supports nas and printer networking as well as remote speaker capability for AirPlay enabled devices. If you like a lot of networking control with lots of options you probably wouldn't like this router/wap, but if you like easy low maintenance gear that works well, this is a good choice.

I've replaced a lot of computer hard drives. The western digital drives used to have a less than optimal service rating, but over the last 10 years I haven't noticed them fail at a rate higher than the more expensive brands. All in all it performs as expected for a good price.

Although I haven't yet configured the USB port, the rest of the setup was straight forward and the router has been stable ever since. The dual-band keeps all the various devices connected in their optimum range.

Integrated modem?

The specifications state this has an integrated modem. After opening the box and trying to hook this up I find it says I have to hook up to a modem. So what does integrated modem mean?
I think it's just a technicality in that the term modem is now mainly used incorrectly when referring to devices that interpret one protocol and convert it to another. The netgear router probably has the ability to run PPPoE when directly connected to a DSL (line) which means it is establishing the connection and acting as the modem and router. Ypu can still find dial-up modems if you need one, but they are a little harder to find.
