From the Manufacturer The Barricade Cable/DSL Broadband Router (SMC7004VBR) is the ideal networking solution for home and business users that are looking for a complete networking solution. This platform independent multi-function router combines a 4-port 10/100 Mbps dual speed switch, full-featured SPI firewall, and network management system into one convenient device.

The Barricade Broadband Router is the first router in its class to offer an integrated Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall.

For example, when a hacker attempts to access your network, the Barricade can alert you via email so you can take appropriate action. The Barricade Router supports Network Address Translation (NAT) to provide connectivity simultaneous Internet access for up to 253 PC's using a single purchased IP address. To manage these connections, the Barricade has a built-in DHCP server to auto-assign IP addresses to devices on your network.

For added management, this router also has a full- featured Access Control option. The integrated feature allows you to filter traffic through your network based on IP and MAC address.

Can't beat the price
I REALLY didn't want to spend over $50 to get a 4-port router to share my cable modem connection (Charter) across several network devices, and was thrilled when I ran across this one for less than $20. I was a little worried, though, that when it arrived I'd find there were problems to warrant the low price. I was pleasantly surprised when it fired right up without any configuration needed. Just for the heck of it, I ran the install software anyway to look over the features and to see if there were any firmware updates. From what I can tell, either this has the latest firmware or SMC has discontinued support for this model. If the latter is true, perhaps that's why the price is so low. Thing is, as long as the firmware functions, that's fine for my purposes. I was pretty happy with the available settings to deal with PPTP/NAT/Firewall issues, but honestly didn't need to make any adjustments to be able to run World of Warcraft, Netflix or a Cisco VPN client (I log in remotely to work.) Still, nice to know I can itemize ports/addresses to allow/block, and can configure just about anything I need to for static and dynamic addressing. I did notice about a 10% decrease in throughput performance (as compared to a straight connect from my PC to my cable modem), but that's reasonable for a VERY low-end and inexpensive switch/router. All-in-all, it was $20 well spent.

SMC Router
Our old CPU died on us so I got a new one but I was able to fix our old one so now we had 2 computers and a ps3 so I decided to buy a router and hook all 3 up to our broadband.Looked around amazon and decided on this one based on price and reviews.I have to say I am very happy so far, hooked it up and it worked right out of the box, I had a slight problem with my 2nd cpu and had to hook it up afterwards I just manually set it up and bingo internet was live and working.So I have 2 CPU's 1 ps3 and also have a Vonage Modem working off the router all at the same time and all working smoothly.In the past we had a problem with our Vonage modem trying to reset our comcast cable modem andthey would both go down then its a royal pain in the behind, so far this has stopped that.For the price and how well it works I gave it 5 stars.

EZ as Pie
I got this router afte I had read both the good and bad reviews. It seemed to have more positives and be easier to set up than others I was looking at.It was certainly easy. As promised, 3-click installation. It got my second computer, which wasn't configured for internet connection at all, on the net in next to no time.I'm glad I read about the firewall defaulting to "Off". Although I do have a software firewall, I figure more protection is a good thing. I too got confused over the directions. But once I got to the website, I relized I only needed to get to advanced configuration, set the firewall, save the setting and I was done.After re-booting, the connection is as reliable and fast as ever. I have no need for parental controls or blocking websites, so maybe that is what has caused some of the complaints.For me, it was easy, quick and painless.

Nice unit
This is a very serviceable router. It did, however, leave a bit to be desired when trying to forward ports with it. Perhaps it was user error or something, but I could never seem to figure out how to forward the ports properly for World of Warcraft. I now have a wireless router that I forwarded the ports on perfectly, so who knows?

Works perfectly
I was a little worried about how well this router would work given that it is on the older side, but I was extremely pleased with this. I needed a wired router for my new Roku box to run to my DSL line and this was simple and easy. After a very long process with Roku to get the right one, buying cables I DIDN'T need and NOT buying the cables and router I DID need, this was awesome. It took 5 minutes to get it out of the box hook it up and have everything running smoothly.

A champ!
This router is a champ. I have not had one second of problems with it since I hooked it up. It does exactly what I want it to do--serve as a router/firewall between my computers and the cable modem. It will even e-mail security reports to you, if you want it to. It is amazing to see how many computers are trying to break in every minute. I went with this router because I didn't really need wireless and did not want the extra security hassles that can bring.

Solid router for the money
Had gotten several years of service from an smc 8-port router in the past. With this one, so far so good. Fabulous value at ~$13.
