I purchased the N300 and was pretty satisfied with the connection for doing work and normal browsing. However, when I watch netflix or play online games, I noticed that the FPS on the games was not where it could be... I looked online and saw that there was an N600 that was supposed to be a step up from my N300 as far as connection ability and consistency, and from further studies saw that the N900 was a step above that... I took a leap and purchased the N900 because I knew the Olympics was coming up and had planned to watch the Olympics online through Satellite Direct The setup seemed nice and smooth, no issues at all like some of the other users were experiencing... but the first thing I noticed was that instead of Five Bars (I was...
