Product Description Surf, work, or play without running wiresAll-in-one Internet-sharing Router, 4-port Switch, and Wireless-G (802.11g) Access PointShares a single Internet connection and other resources with Ethernet wired and Wireless-G and -B devicesPush button setup feature makes wireless configuration secure and simpleHigh security: Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), wireless MAC address filtering, powerful SPI firewallThe 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 pow

Piece of junk November 24, 2009 Virender Katoch (VK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Needs power reset every other day. Drop connection with cable modem. Working with VPN where connection dropped need sign in again, just kills me.
Works great November 24, 2009 Paul E. Kasemir (Longmont, CO USA) Installed it and it got IP from router after reboot. Then setup the wireless to my needs with security enabled and it worked right then and there.
Simply Good! November 22, 2009 Macsrods One of the easiest routers for a Macintosh user to
install and use. Linksys pays attention to the "other"
computer out here. Great value for the price and superb
customer service and support both online and over the
phone. Flawless performance!
Award Winning tech support tried to rip me off November 21, 2009 G. Hsiao (Bloomington, IN USA) The router is basically working fine with my Thinkpad X60 (running XP) and fit PC2 (running Ubuntu).
The reason that I am going to give this product an 2 star review is that the tech support wasn't able to help me install the router and tried their best to take over my computer and charge me additional fee (I refused).
I tried to followed the instruction to install the router. Since there is a sticker on the ports of the router saying that you have to install the software first, I installed the software without connecting the router. It stuck at checking connection page and saying there's some problem with wireless adapter. After tried several things out and not able to get it working, I decided to call Sisco's "Award Winning Tech Support".
The first thing made me uncomfortable is they ask your name(full name), phone number and e-mail. I was not cautious enough so I give out my phone number but not e-mail address. They won't inform you providing those information are optional until you decide not to tell. I wonder those personal information has anything to do with installing the router.
Than the tech support kept asking me to spend around 9 dollar to have someone take over my computer and take a look at it. She kept saying that is the best way to resolve my problem.
I have been using "Log me in" to access my office computer at home and I know what it's like to have some one remote access your computer. They can do whatever they want, including lock up your screen, keyboard and mouse. Therefore I turned down her offer and ask if she able to advice via phone. She still insist on the "remote plan". I told her I rather try to install again by myself and end up the conversation.
After I tried to connect the router to the network while installing the software, everything works out fine. I am glad I didn't pay 9 dollar for doing this.
Thank you award winning tech support for wasting me 20 minutes!
(I am not complaining about individual tech support but whoever wrote their SOP)
My Linksys G router review November 21, 2009 J. Mclain 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The router is a good basic router overall. The only downside I have with it, is that it keeps hanging up and I have to unplug it to reset it. My laptop will suddenly lose its internet connection until I reset the router.
