Digital camera reviews of Cisco-Linksys WET11 Wireless Ethernet BridgeDigital camera Review: 100% compatible with Netgear MR814 Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent product. Once I turned it on (the WET11), I saw his Mac address on my Netgear Router ready to be connected. That means, they are 100% compatible, no extra settings are needed. It's a shame Netgear doesn't offer a similar product at a similar price, may be next year.Thank Linksys
