  could have been better October 28, 2008

the software that comes with this router is so bloated that setting up a network becomes frustrating. anything you want to connect to the wireless network must have the software loaded, which is fine for computers, but is impossible for printers or game consols.
The security software prevents even your own laptops from connecting when fully enabled, even though you have the password. so you have to disable it to connect to the internet thereby rendering it useless.
Even though the form factor looks good, the functionality is horrible. The linksys wrt54g, which is the older version, is a much more functional wireless router.
 It's OK -- nothing special October 28, 2008
I bought this to replace a Netgear wireless G router that died on me after just four months of use. This is my third wireless router overall and I can say after two months of use that it works around 90 percent of the time. The other 10 percent it either doesn't connect when I bootup my laptop or cuts out mid-use. Then I have to either reconnect manually or even reboot to get my internet connection back. But after having two Netgear routers even if this one isn't great it's better than the others.
The worst thing about it is that after installing it on my laptop my bootup time has just about doubled from ~90 seconds to about ~180 seconds. Maybe it's a Vista issue, I don't know, but I definitely have to wait longer to startup my computer since I got this router. But still, it's better than Netgear.

Easy setup and works great October 24, 2008
This was my first time setting up a wireless network and it only took me a couple of minutes before everything was up and running. I have had it for about a month and it has worked perfectly.
Linksys WRT54G2 Wireless-G Broadband Router Review October 23, 2008
Good design, the black finish complements the other hardware I have at home. Easy to setup and use, the web interface is better than the previous version. The only concern I have is that the device cannot be placed sideways to save space. Also the plastic material used makes it look like the device easily brakes. But overall, it is a very good product, very useful and very affordable.
