Once I got the router to connect with my DSL modem, surfing has been great. I'm running a Mac, and even following the excellent instructions Linksys provides on their web page, I spent about 2 hours in trial-and-error mode trying to make a connection.Security is excellent on this model, range is acceptable, and it's pretty fast. Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase.
Great piece of gear. Helps to be knowledgeable about addressing home networking functions. Setup was straight forward. Decided to go with G broadband till N is proven technology. Had it up and running in about 30 minutes, handshaking between my desktop, notebook and printer. Notebook retained good reception and speed even at far end of house, nearly 80 ft away. G is plenty fast for my needs. Would highly recommended this router to a friend.
Great product once I got it hooked up. It required a call to the service center to connect to my i-Mac. It might prove easier to connect to with a Windows product.
I purchased Linksys Wireless Router to work with my two PC's and XBox 360. And results are exactly what I expected from Linksys. I would recommend this for it's easy to use setup and price.
I purchased the Linksys wireless router to replace my netgear, which was working, but kept dropping the wired connection. So what was the problem. On Netgear, it was [.]. So I called customer service, who said that the problem was very easy to fix, but that they needed to charge me an additional $10 to access my computer and fix it. So all they had to tell me was the router login site, and this was supposed to be the reason they needed access to my computer. I asked them wasn't this covered with the warranty, and they said no, because they have to actually have someone go in. I am relatively computer savvy, but could not get a connection. The router login site is 192.168.1.1 and I just needed to set the key passphrase.
I informed them that my computer worked with the other wireless router, and that I wasn't paying another $[.]. on top of what I already paid.My advice--I told them that I'd rather return the router than spend another $10 just to get past the installation process, and they finally yielded. or something like that. Like I said, great product--this thing has not dropped connection both wireless and wired, great speeds--but customer service leaves something to be desired.
