have had pogoplug pro for at least 6months'

activated ok set up free software ok on xp pro pc .first issue no router in list but managed to get it connected but still not in list.connected drives 1 8gb lexar fat 32 flash drive and western digital 500gb passport drive .pogoplug pro light flashing amber so go on forums check whats wrong cant fix it so put in ticket to support.recieve email but doesnt fix problem.i work out its western digital passport drive because its got an embedded  smartware which auto runs when inserted into pc it is disabled but cant be taken off so check` if you are thinking of a western digital passport hdd for your pogoplug some of these drives dont have it.purchased a 1tb seagate go flex desktop hdd works fine.was using pogoplug pro on its wifi .enabled streaming to xbox 360 had issues with stopping after 30mins put this down to the wifi from pogoplug to router as when i used Lan cable it worked ok also xbox 360 is cabled to router .the router is a sky sagem g unit {crap}.tried firefox browser works ok but safari seems better looking .download video and music through browser its slow due uploads speeds on network dont know if better router will improve it .would say watching video through browser would be useless because of this .listening to music seems ok but as for the quality not sure how to check it.have emailed links to other people to share files using pogoplug feature and thats fine.had 3 devices streaming video from pogoplug pro and it worked ok

WHATS BAD

no list of external hdd

no mention of upload speeds causing issues

support not good enough

any device using your router causing video to stop or stutter

WHATS GOOD

being able to access files from browser anywhere

streaming to xbox 360 and ps3

being able to share files via email

 MY VERDICT

7/10

most new routers allow sharing with them having usb ports for hdd`s

would i reccomend it  YES but at the right price
