I recommend you skip the Netgear WNR3500. I bought one today and it won't stay connected for five minutes. I've used three Netgear routers and this is the worst. I think Netgear releases their equipment way before they've tested it enough. This one goes back tomorrow. I haven't decided on what I'll get, but it won't ever be another Netgear. I tried slower settings, different channels, and multiple PCs. My last Netgear router died after seven months. Netgear wouldn't resolve an issue on it either. The router before that had to be reset all the time. The reviews on these routers list the same problems I've had with Netgear, so my problems aren't unique. Study the reviews before you buy and skip Netgear.
I have to concur, I've had mine for a few weeks now and whenever I connect via a Dell Laptop Wireless it will reset the router every 5 minutes or so. Netgear was no help in getting a resolution. I can use my HP Laptop and Dell XPS One without issues, but using that one Dell Laptop it resets. Also, the router will not propogate DNS forcing me to hardcode DNS in all workstations. Netgear's forums are no help as well. I had used Netgear swtches without issues, and figured thos router would be similar, but it isn't. As Brett recommends, research it further and make another choice for a router solution.
