Good at first...but watch out! Customer Serivce is terrible. March 6, 2010 L. Hill (Kentucky, USA) I used this for my first true in-home wireless set up. Used the wireless, and the wired options. Windows Vista constantly drops connections with this router. As a "wired" setup it did just fine. It had a ton of nice features for security. I set up most of the Wireless LAN permissions, and even setup MAC-address filtering. I changed the SSID, re-established the user/pass settings.
The last staw was at 15 months, when it just quit working for NO apparent reason. The really screwy part was that the "hard reset" button did not respond. I was willing to lose all of my custom configurations just to get online again, but that turned out to be too much to ask. So I did an online tech session with one of their CSRs...since it was over 12 months old they wouldn't help me. They offered to do an online diagnostic for $24.99. WTF?!?!?! So I dumped Linksys and now run Netgear WGR614 G/B. So far so good.
Works Great and arrived fast!! February 23, 2010 W. Hall This Linksys works great, arrived fast, and has better wireless strength than my Netgear. Make sure you use the setup CD tht comes with it and read the directions slowly when making selections. I made the mistake of rushing through it which made the Linksys not work at first. (my fault) I ran the CD again and then it worked great after I made the correct selections. Buy it, its worth the money!
Router-Yes Tech Support- Good Luck! February 7, 2010 Westech (Florida) With any router you're going to end up calling tech support. And, in the words of SpongeBob SquarePants, "Good luck with that." In the case of our install we hade a huge language barrier to overcome and a "tech" who refused to honor our request for a supervisor with a working command of the English language. First request resulted in our being put on hold for 27 minutes, the second time we asked, the phone conversation was terminated. A third call got us competent help. I would hope the rude, incompetent tech was an anomoly.
So....router good. Tech support, not so.
Why won't this thing set-up with my laptop? November 24, 2009 Adam Pecherski I received this item and followed all of the instructions to set-up the secure network and tried to do this 6 times. It wouldn't work so I have been using it unsecured. Please contact me.
Finally Full Bars! October 27, 2009 Crystal S. (San Diego, CA) After half a year of getting 2/5 signal bars from my old wireless router (even being in the same room!) I purchased this one. It was very easy to install (didn't even need the CD) and my laptop immediately picked up the signal. So happy to have a secure wireless network with full bars! At last!
