Works very well, but it’s a little bulky
Product works well. Shipped to me with v1.0 of the software — had to get v1.1 from the website. Also, it’s a little large, so it will block things that are very close (e.g. another USB port on top of or right next to it). Trendnet includes a [...]

Get a centering cone.
This base does make the Colt a much more versatile router. It is easy to install, but hard to center. I do not have the centering cone so I had to use a 3/8″ round-over bit that just happens to fit the opening exactly. Even with the bit, [...]

Makita takes a page from Porter Cable’s book
Porter Cable is in big trouble with this router. Makita has copied (borrowed) the best of the features that make the PC 690 the standard in mid-sized routers and added lots more. The 1101 has more HP (2-1/4 vs. 1-1/2) Has Variable speed, A much nicer [...]

Great for Mac users too!
I was thinking of purchasing an Airport Express module, but purchased this instead. It has a lower price, similar size, and a built-in 4-port switch which won me over. It was easy to configure using Safari and it’s built-in setup wizard (no software needs to be installed). I got [...]

Dare I say it? Yes, I dare: Better Than Porter Cable
I played around with a bunch of routers and router combo packs before settling on this one. I played with the Bosch, Porter Cable, Dewalt, Milwalkee, and Makita, but none of them felt so solid in my hand or ergonically precise as the [...]

fantastic value for money
Bought this re-conditioned on sale for $30. Best $30 I’ve ever spent. If you need/want a 1/4 inch shaft bit router, you can’t beat this for the money. I have used it in a router table also and it works remarkably well there, as long as you are mindful of the 1/4 [...]

Great deal
I bought this for occassional use on woodworking hobby projects. After researching new routers, I found the price on this too good to pass up. It arrived much faster than I expected it to, in great condition. I can’t even tell if it was used even once. All parts were included, [...]

Versions 1 - 4 were great but version 5 is a different story
The Linksys WRT54G and WRT54GS routers have been the number one most popular wireless router devices available for the past few years. So this begs the question why Cisco would snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by needlessly changing an almost perfect [...]
