Reading some of these other reviews, I felt like I had written them, given our common experiences: 1. The base station continually disconnects from the internet and drops its connection with the computer; 2. The Microsoft tech service people are very nice (that's worth a star) but don't have a clue what the problem is; 2. They sent me a new unit and that doesn't work either. Linksys, here I come.
So many problems installing on Win ME

Opened box and attempted install. Software keeps locking up...Internet Extorter won't open when connected to router (works fine when connected to cable modem directly). After much fussing about, got the software to configure and load correctly but requires unplugging network cable from computer first. Also, compared to other router products I've used, the web interface is SLOWWWWWWWW...noticed this device is running WinCE...hmmm.
Works ok with win2k, but can't connect my Orinoco Silver (802.11b) to the router (may be a card issue rather than router).
Highly recommend investigating other choices from established netoworking companies that don't release beta products!
Some problem as the nov2 review

Yep...the base station kept on disconnecting. I was able to update the software, fairly easily...after a few tries. (you can download it on your desktop and install it later) but you have to be online to update the firmware from 207.something to 208.something. While it was searching for updates, it would sometimes discconect, instead of canceling, I kept unplugging and re-plugging the base station (this resets the connection)...I was about to take it back but I decided to give it one more chance....hmmmm...maybe it responds to threats better....><
yeesh. what a headache

Works for about three minutes at a time. Actually, it works as long as I don't actually use the Internet. Nice tech support folks, though.
What more could I ask for?

I've had this router for 3+ years. Bombproof. Never had a single problem that could have remotely been traced to this router. I really don't know what else to say.
Full disclosure: I work for MS. But if something doesn't work, I dump it. And this thing has been nothing short of perfect.
