The N+ Wireless Router features a USB port on the back, that lets you connect a USB storage device. This allows multiple computers to easily access documents, videos, and photos on the storage drive over a secure wireless network. Four gigabit ports provide the bandwidth and speed needed for media intense applications like streaming music and video.

Stopped working after 2 months
My unit was constantly disconnecting from the Internet. After a couple of months of intermitent connections it would not reconnect at all. Tech support was useless. The unit is in the garbage.

Fabulous Router
We just got this router after our Linksys slowly but surely quit allowing us to access it wirelessly.
Although I ended up having to call teck support to install it, the process was quick and easy. The unit works much better than the Linksys ever did. I would definitely recommend it!
As a side note, the shape is great. Being tall and thin, the antenna are high and the unit takes up little room. I always had trouble placing the low flat Linksys.

Great range, fast, handles many wireless devices concurrently
I've seen there are tons of reviews on this device pounding the features. I'll just add some relevant core observations. I ran streaming video (Hulu) on 3 separate machines spread over a large area all at once, while two other machines where being used for mild browsing by my wife and mother in law. No connection problems, lag, or slowdown on any of the 5 machines, despite the fact this house has very old plaster walls (with chicken wire inside), which kills wireless signals. It was easy to setup, about 80 big ones at the local big box store. The design of the router very nice, nicer than any of the other 5-6 I've had. I'm running machines on XP, Vista, and OS X 10.6 w/o problems.

Nice features, but problems with VOIP
I upgraded to this router from an old Netgear router about 4 months ago. The setup was quick and easy, and I was up and running in only a few minutes. The router has been been rock solid stable for me. I have between 8-10 devices connected at any one time (2-3 of them wireless, the rest wired). I have never had a connection drop and have had no stability problems at all. I really like some of the features, like the hotel-style option for guests to use when they are visiting. I haven't used the USB storage yet, so I can't comment on that.
That said, the router does NOT perform well when I am making telephone calls over my VOIP adapter. If I am on the phone, simple web surfing from one of the other computers on the network is often enough to distort the audio of the phone call beyond recognition for a second or two. Flash heavy and high bandwidth sites like youtube make the phone completely unusable for several seconds at a time. This is new behavior to this router- I never had any problems like this with the old Netgear router, and my VOIP hardware and other network settings have all remained the same (I only swapped out the router). I consistently measure 15mbps up/down on my internet connection, so I have plenty of bandwidth here. I couldn't find any QoS settings in the router config that looked like they could be helpful, so I emailed Belkin tech support. Two weeks later, I got an unhelpful response from them that explained in detail how to set up a virtual server, which had nothing to do with what I was asking (I tried enabling a virtual server like they described just in case the firmware used those settings to prioritize traffic, but it didn't make any difference). I'm still playing around with some different configuration, and maybe I'll try the new firmware once they actually post it on their website, but for now I just try to avoid having anybody use a computer while somebody is making a call, and thats really annoying.
So if you don't have a VOIP service, I would recommend this router as a feature-rich and stable product. But if you do want to use a VOIP service, beware.
