Digital camera reviews of Cisco-Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router
Digital camera Review: A good router...BUT...
Summary: 4 Stars
This router is very good, however, it cost me an additional $35 to have my computer guy to come by and set it up as the instructional information supplied is not at all user friendly. You might want to figure extra fees into the price unless maybe your a computer geek. FrankDigital camera Review: A great addition to any home network
Summary: 4 Stars
I've been a fan of Linksys products ever since I purchased an older linksys router. Wanting a faster wireless connection, I decided to upgrade to another Linksys. Setup was quick. I changed a few settings and then was connected in a matter of minutes. It's now been running for about 2 months and I haven't touched it since. The performance is on par with other devices of this class.
When you get this product, there are 3 things that you should change when setting it up.
1) Change the Administrator Password.
2) Change the SSID.
3) Enable and set a WEP key.
This will prevent all but the most determined hackers from getting into your network.
Digital camera Review: A great product
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great product, especially after what i have experienced with other router companies. The easy to read and do instructions on the router's manual are really helpful and very user friendly. It is all available in easy to follow format on CD. I had a Netgear router, which never really worked that trouble free like the Linksys 54 mbps. This Linksys router is very easy to install and is the best in the market in its category. It has got other features like one touch security, which makes your router secure and unsecure at touch of a button. Simply put, if you need a non-fancy reliable router with easy installation and trouble free service and good secured wireless connection, this is a right product for you. Try it and thank me later!Digital camera Review: A great router!
Summary: 5 Stars
This fine unit is easy to set up (as routers go) and powerful and reliable and can have its firmware replaced. The Linux foundation of this fine router gives the user access to several remarkable products that can be used to replace its already good firmware with outstandingly complex and useful professional grade software developed by the open source community. So, an already excellent product gains from the efforts of gifted folks that toil away to produce excellent additions.
Too bad we do not yet have the same software for the faster replacement unit WRT610N.
If Wireless G is fast enough for you this is the most "bang for the buck available."
Digital camera Review: A lemon
Summary: 1 Stars
Its exactly that! It's one of those crummy used cars that seems okay just long enough to go beyond the return warranty. Now, I'm stuck with over $100 worth of junk (the router + the card). It seemed fine, despite the ridiculous customer service helpline, but then problems emerged daily. Just like many other users, my connection would break, it would act like it never seen my computer before to the point that I would have to repeatedly take it apart and reconnect the wire setup. I went from Verizon DSL to Comcast Internet and it just got worse. If you have dialup, Linksys will somehow always "forget" your username, password, settings, etc. and if you have broadband, it will pretend that a network is a figment of your imagination! Wireless is nice but its not worth the aggrivation and that's only if it works. Again, the first time I tried to connect to my campus network, everything clicked and I even could access the lab printers. Then every time after that, I kept getting cut off from the net...AND THEY USE THE EXACT SAME LINKSYS ROUTERS!!! Don't buy this, please. Its just not worth it!
