Boycott Title

NO MORE INDIAN CUSTOMER SERVICES

Boycott Description


I have been using a garbage NETGEAR router N150 WNR1000 for 4 months without having any connection issues. However the range was very very low until I decided to upgrade the preposterous firmware. That gave me a weird wireless connection. This "best" connection could only be established within 10 feet radies of the NETGEAR garbage. I went to Staples and exchanged the router after having conversation with the manager. NEW router prompted me to upgrade. it was working OK before upgrading and i experienced the same problem after upgrading. NOW calling customer service was another horrifying experience. I say screw those INDIAN smelly customer service agents and hire some American professionals who atleast know what they are saying or doing. I called them 6 times and after waiting at least one 20 minutes finally got connected to "tech support" and this is what i got, "Sir we are having serious difficulty hearing your voice". I finally gave. NO more NETGEAR products in my house. Period

It is totally outrageous that phone calls for tech support has to go to India.  This is AMERICA. I am not Indian therefore I do not speak Indian.  I finally got rid of my Netgear router and am buying a Linksys.  Netgear support sucks, they screwed up  my IP address and then tried to sell me a service contract.  I had no clue what the woman and then a guy  on the other end was telling me.
