Besides dual-firewall protection, the WNR3500 V2 Netgear includes DoS (Denial-of-service) attack protection and IDS (Intrusion detection and prevention) system for better protection against any types Internet threats.

And the good thing with this router is that it includes Broadband Usage Meter that allows you measure Internet traffic volume and provides customized usage alerts. However, the bad things with this router are that no USB port available (for storage or printer share purposes) and no dual-band support (clearer signal for gaming and streaming video).
