Product Description
The Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router is three devices in one. The Wireless Access Point lets you connect both Wireless-G (802.11g at 54Mbps) and Wireless-B (802.11b at 11Mbps) devices to the network. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Connect four PCs directly, or attach more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. The Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. All your computers can print on a shared printer connected anywhere in the house. Your computers can share all kinds of music, digital picture, and document files. The Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature makes it easy to configure your wireless devices. Just push the button on the Router and on your other Wi-Fi Protected Setup enabled wireless device to automatically create a WPA2 connection that protects your data and privacy with up to 256-bit industrial-strength encryption. The Router can serve as a DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, supports VPN pass-through, and can be configured to filter internal users' access to the Internet. Advanced configuration is a snap with the web-browser-based interface.

4 out of 5 stars Linksys router   August 30, 2008
John R. Tevelde (Stillwater, OK United States)
The first thing I liked about this router was the customer support that it provided. Because there was no set-up program for a Mac with the product, I called the support people and was walked through a manual set-up that worked immediately, with no clitches (later I found out that the Linksys website has a set-up software package that can be downloaded to accomplish the same thing.
Since then, the router has been performing very well. It provides the maximum amount of download and upload speed that our dsl modem and line will support. So I'm very happy.



4 out of 5 stars Muy buen router para el precio   August 30, 2008
Florentina
El router es muy bueno para lo que cuesta pero no se si sea solo a mi...pero a veces se me pierde la conexion (cuando no hay equipos conectados al router...conecto inalambricamente una laptop, un wii y por cable a una pc) o a veces de repente usando solo la laptop inalambrica y debo desconectarlo, conectar por cable el modem a la laptop, luego cuando agarra conexion, cambio el cable para que ahora vaya del modem al router, del router a la laptop y prendo el router y cuando agarra conexion ya todo funcuona normal...

saludos!!



3 out of 5 stars Don't Buy for Macs   August 30, 2008
Ken Doctor (San Jose, CA USA)
I've not got the router set up and all seems to be working, I hope for a long time. So I'm not reporting a router issue, but an installation issue for Macs. The Linksys set-up disk, which apparently is supposed to make set-up a 5-minute process, doesn't work for Macs. But I didn't see that info on the Amazon product description, or on the Linksys support site. And it took 15 mins to get that little detail from the Linksys chat, which asked idiotic questions like "where are you", a question that is just another nonsensical hurdle when you are trying to load a disk in a computer. The Chat person was totally unhelpful and a waste of time. Finally, I found an installation process on a Mac Forum. But what should have been -- as touted -- a 5-minute exercise took an hour and a half. Mac users, my suggestion is to find a router that promotes itself as Mac ready.


5 out of 5 stars plug and play... easy to install, easy to use   August 30, 2008
Andrew C. Flick (Atlanta, GA USA)
i'm not the most tech-savvy individual. That being said, i'm highly satisfied with this product.

It works extremely well, and is VERY easy to set up and use. It has provided me with several months of uninterrupted, reliable wireless internet.

I've even used this for multiple computers at the same time. Works brilliantly. Highly recommended.



1 out of 5 stars Constant re-boot required   August 29, 2008
Neal Quiros (Orlando, FL USA)
I've had this router for two months and had nothing but problems. It randomly looses it's ip connection to my cable modem and then takes forever to find it again. Based on the mixed feedback I see on this site I suspect it's a production defect that only affects certain routers as I see both very good and very bad ratings. You're taking a risk buying this router. I won't buy it again!
