Digital camera reviews of Linksys WRT150N Wireless N Home Router with 4-Port Switch Mimo
Digital camera Review: Geat Performance
Summary: 5 Stars
The router came in the afternoon and was up-and-running within a short time. No glitches and the speed is spectacular. Been using it from my office and running my Dell Inspiron from the dining room with excellent reception. Highly recommend Linksys WRT150N wireless N router.Digital camera Review: Get D-Link DIR-655 instead
Summary: 1 Stars
(zero star) This Linksys N router makes wireless experience more miserable than ever. It drops or freezes up randomly. It draws system memory (my memory was always on 50% usage but now drops to 30% after switching to D-Link). Its evil twins, the Linksys N wireless card interrupts the sound card (the volume keeps going up and down and slows down sometimes as if you are playing LP using the wrong rpm). The signal strength is worst than my years old g router. We paid full price to get this router and was reluctant to buy a new one within a year. But the performance was so horrible that we would rather dragging 100ft long cables go around the house instead of 'trying our luck' to get connected wirelessly. No luck to begin with anyway as we had already paid this junk.Digital camera Review: Good Product --Maybe, Lousey Support
Summary: 3 Stars
It was easy enough to plug into one computer but I was not able to get to work on the wireless unit. After 2 hours trying to get it to work via a chat room support environment and having to break the connection without the problem being solved I'm convinced I should have gone elsewhere, to a manufacturer who gives vocal support. Try running across the house from one computer to the other while trying to follow instructions...Digital camera Review: Good Wifi router & switch for the money
Summary: 4 Stars
This is not my first wifi router, and I bought it to replace a flakey, four year old D-link unit that needed to be reset several times a day. So far after about a year's use, I haven't had any problems with either PCs or Macs on my home network. The complaints about "not working with Macs" are probably due to the user's lack of knowledge, not a problem with the router.
I will say the setup is going to be a challenge for someone who knows nothing about networks or WEP security. Setup is done from a browser and there are several screens where information has to be entered to secure the wifi network. If you aren't sure about these, find a knowledgeable friend who can help set it up. I can't comment on Linksys tech support because I never needed to call them.
Digital camera Review: Good performance
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a good performance router although the configuration is not as intuitive as previous d-link router. The range is above average but nothing impressive.
