  Almost five star... November 12, 2008
LOVE this router. Ease of installation was fantastic and does everything short of holding your hand as it is done. Sleak and unobtrusive on the desk and works very well. Operating in a 760sq ft condo and signal is weaker in the areas furthest from the unit although have rarely noticed slower performance because of it. Would have given it five stars if signal was stronger. Would (and have) recommend this to others.
 It may be a great product... November 11, 2008
This may be a great product--I have a previous generation Linksys--but I haven't been able to get this one to work with my system.
I don't know why--I've had two wireless routers before this one, and they worked just fine.

Great Router WRT54G2 November 10, 2008
This is really a great product. I used to have another but that always used to interfere 2.1G appliances. So always I had to either restart the model or modify the connection settings but this is a great product took only a min to set up and no issues since then. I definitely recommend this.
 So Far So Good November 6, 2008
So far, so good. I bought this as a market standard router for our apartment after Time Warner failed to bring a router as requested. I considered the rangemax and ultrarange as options, but decided that our 1200 sq foot apartment was probably fine with this one. We all have relatively new computers, two of which run on Vista, so the 802.11g was compatible with all of them. I chose Linksys based on customer reviews and overall ratings. Netgear seemed to have the lowest rating overall but D-Link seems on par so it may work just as well.
I did a bunch of research beforehand which helped a bit (I had no idea as to 802.11b versus g, etc.), and also found instructions on installing a wireless network from [...] which were actually great to have on hand since the Linksys user guide is on a CD. Overall, setting it up was pretty easy, the only issue was that my roommate had disabled her wireless! Once we figured that out, everything was connected. I had to power down the modem and the router and restart the computers once they were connected to make sure everything worked but now everything is set. I'm 30 feet and 4 walls away from the router and my internet is faster than it ever was with Time Warner. It was worth the time and less money.
No dropped signals. Great router! November 6, 2008
PROS (4 stars): This wireless router has been working flawlessly since I installed it about a week ago. I previously had a D-Link Rangebooster and it would drop the signal several times a day. But with this new router, there has been no dropped signal. Data and video are streaming with little to no hiccups. Router works like it should!
CONS (-1 star): Install disc did not "AutoRun" on my Macbook (OS 10.5.5). I had to install and configure the router using my PC notebook. Macbook had no problem recognizing the new wireless signal. Also, I had some trouble changing the SSID - The first time I configured the router, the router did not save the SSID I assigned it.
