Model N600 packaging does not indicate that it can only do speed of 100MBS max. Missrepresentation

I would not have purchased if I knew and now I am stuck with this junk.  So far NETGEAR is not offering any assistance or a exchange with a faster speed.  What kind of company is NETGEAR to be so dishonest.

       "N600" is a speed, not a model number.  Look for "Model" on the
    product label and/or the box.

       With my weak psychic powers, I can't see your "packaging", nor what
    it might or might not "indicate".  And, without an actual model number,
    it's tough to follow the usual procedure to get actual product
    information:

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
    for Documentation.  Get some.  Read.

     

       I'd expect any device labeled "N600" to be pretty old, and I would
    not be amazed if its Ethernet ports were limited to 100Mb/s ("Fast
    Ethernet" ("Fast" as of 1999, that is)).

       Did you buy it (whatever it is) directly from Netgear?

       Treating that as a question ("?"), it might be the kind of company
    which can't afford to correct every mistake made by every customer.
