Customize Parental Controls
Easy-to-use Cisco Connect software lets you set custom parental controls on the wireless devices in your home, so you can keep your children's Internet time safe and fun.

With parental controls, you're in charge.
Internet for Everyone
Cisco Connect makes it a breeze to give wireless access to visiting friends and family.

Great Hotspot
This hotspot has great range, one of the main reasons I got it, and the guest feature is great. It also looks great wherever you decide to put it. I would highly recommend it.

Not very happy with it
Very, very easy setup. The reason we bought it is due to the built-in guest account that allows isolated Internet-only guest wifi access (as a free wifi hotspot, although it is limited to 10 simultaneous guest logins). But the range is terrible. It sits right next to a Wireless-G 2WIREXXX DSL router and the signals are virtually identical in all spots. N should be way stronger, but this one is not. No way to add a better antenna. If you need the range, you're going to be unhappy with this.

Quality Product!
I will spare you the nightmare I had trying to install another manufacturers inferior product. Lets just say in comparison, this Cisco Valet Plus practically installs itself. I highly recommend this product to anyone who needs a reliable, easy to install, wireless router.
