I ordered this router as a new one. But the base plate of both plunging & fixed unit came with deep scratch right out the box. Is this normal? Thanks!

Nope, though they will probably get a scratch soon anyway. It is a power tool after all. Happy routing

Mine came with no scratches, but from use I have scratched the plastic plate a bit. If it doesn't interfere with accurate use of the router is probably keep it

Depends, are they manufacturing marks? They mass produce these, probably hundreds to thousands per run and toss them into a bin. Then that bin must travel through its other steps and probably scratched against each other. Mine look to be marks from manufacturing process. My bases do have marks from the motor being inserted, but I really doubt mine is used. It's quality control doing their job and test fitting them to make sure the customer doesn't find out the hard way that it was manufactured out of tolerance, hence motor not fitting inside the base.

No. It should not have any straches or noticeable marks on it, mine didn't (it just didn't work). Hope this helps. Remember return it within 30 days. I did not notice my didn't work until after 30 days and they would not do anything for me.

the specs drew me to this router but i bought it refurbished and had issues with it straight out of the box - the tech support did respond to my emails and i havent bothered in recent times to follow up because i was so busy but if you buy this i suggest you get it new - i like netgear routers but maybe someone else might have had a better experience than me

Greetings, All I can tell you is the following. I purchased this item on Amazon as a "New" item and Amazon was the seller. It came to me damaged and obviously had been used previously as it was not clean and had numerous water spots on the unit. It was dented and had screws missing from its housing. The shipping/packaging of this item was rediculous as well. I can't answer your question because I never used the item and returned it ASAP. I share all of this with you in the context of "buyer beware". It was a huge waste of my time in returning this item. I used to trust Amazon, but not any more.All the best to you,Regards,Gary Greetings, All I can tell you is the following. I purchased this item on Amazon as a "New" item and Amazon was the seller.

Actually the insert plate is blank/ clean, so that it doesn't look like Swiss cheese. It comes with a clear plastic template, with circles and cross-hairs like a scope, which you can center easily over your router's base plate and mark the clear plastic template and then easily transfer these holes into the table insert -- so it's a custom fit.

Mr. Mark Bueler at Incra.com is THE MAN to ask that.I have dealt with him several times; he's listed on their website with email address etc.; Incra DOES HAVE a TEMPLATE for installation in a generic table top, as mine is a HOMEBUILT router table, I got the template.Hope this helps?

There is a voucher in the box for the router plate. You will need to call Incra and give them the code on the voucher and let them no your router model. They will mail you the plate.

Since I have only purchased one of these blocks, I cannot speak for all of them, but the one I ordered had as logo (a Japanese character) lightly impressed in the front flat section under where the scissors go. It is a slightly darker color than the rest of the wood, which leads me to think this was done with a heated branding iron; the impression isn't deep enough or uniform enough to make me believe it was done using a router. If the logo really bothers you, it would be very simple to use an orbital sander to remove it. The wood in the block is unfinished, so there would be no issues matching the sanded front to the rest of the block.

Not out of the box. You need to buy a router base from Dewalt and also a centering cone. Read my review for more details.

Mine was "like new" and I can only say how happy I have been with it. :-)I have purchased a number of refurbished products over the years and rarely - rarely - have I been disappointed!I also know of some that have not worked for friends; but rather than "going back" for another, they chose to go "new."We all have different levels of acceptability or patience. I do expect the units I get to work as if they were new! I understand the "refurbished" moniker and feel it is a great way to "sell" an "almost new" unit. Good luck with yours, if you choose one!

yes. no scratches or anything on mine. personally, i have owned both new and refurb'd electronics and prefer the refurbs. any little quirks the specific models have are fixed. so in my opinion, its better than new. i have had this since the beginning of the summer and it works great. it is everything i wanted at a low price. also have had amazing luck with gateway products. have owned several brands, but used harshly and often, they dont overheat or freeze up. great product.

I ordered the RT-N66W (same router in white) about a month ago and it came with the most up-to-date firmware already installed.

u need to have the correct t-slot insert in your router table, and it needs to b the right distance from the center of the router. u can order the t-slot from kreg, and mount it yourself.

I don't know. I sent mine back and am awaiting a refund. It was supposed to be new and when I went to register it with netgear. Netgear said that someone had alreadyt registered it and that it was probably used. Still waiting!!!

I have this model and use it often When I purchased mine there was another model without the guide and it was more money. If you do purchase a router use good bits they cost more but are cheaper in the long run. They won't break and last longer. hope this helps you. This is one of the best routers you can buy. It cost more but its worth it.

The router was used but in new condition. It works better than what I expected. The router improved speed and range without changing wifi card in my laptop. I hope this answered your question.

I'm fairly positive every Netgear router comes with a lifetime warranty and they have a support line just for the router. So the plan I would go with would be calling them up and telling them about your problems with the product. The likely case is you can send it in and get a new one sent back free shipping.
