Linksys WRT54G2 Wireless G Router
The Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect both screaming fast 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. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.

Once your computers are connected to the Router and the Internet, they can communicate with each other too, sharing resources and files. All your computers can print on a shared printer connected anywhere in the house. And your computers can share all kinds of files -- music, digital pictures, and documents. Keep all your digital music on one computer, and listen to it anywhere in the house. Organize all of your family's digital pictures in one place, to simplify finding the ones you want, and easing backup to CD-R. Utilize extra free space on one computer when another's hard drive starts to fill up.

The new 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.

With the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router at the center of your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player games with flexibility, speed, security and simplicity!

I would try to get an older WRT54G. The WRT54G2 works for awhile, but soon crashes and flashes its leds. There wasn't a big network load which did this. If you like Open-WRT and DD-WRT, it is underpowered for that. By contrast the WRT54G works well. Notice the demand for them on ebay and other sites. Skip the WRT54G2, it is inferior. Linksys never should have went down this route.

I bought this wireless router to replace an older one that was going downhill. This wireless router has better coverage and throughput than the wireless router it replaces.

Easy to setup, with loads of advanced features. If you have cable or satellite, then you will need only to hook the provider's modem up to the linksys. It is clearly covered in the manual, and easy to set up. It will also give you a wireless network either encrypted and password protected, or wide open if you wish. Great for using the laptop in the living room, or anywhere in the house!

I purchased this product and had to pay an absurd amount on shipping and handling. It took approximately 4 hours to get the product set up when switching over from my old network. The first three phone operators had no clue how to help me. A manager was finally able to walk me through it. It is up and running, but doesn't appear to have any special features.


Terrible experience.

Poor performance. Signal continued to be lost. Constant reformatting. Contacted company and they basically gave up. Never again will purchase from company.
