Product Description
BThis has been Factory-Refurbished to perform as new. It includes a 90-Day Linksys Warranty./BBR The Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router is three devices in one. The Wireless Access Point lets you connect both Wireless-G (802.11g at 54Mbps) and Wireless-B (802.11b at 11Mbps) devices to a network. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Connect four PCs directly, or attach more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. The Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. All your computers can print on a shared printer connected anywhere in the house. Your computers can share all kinds of music, digital picture, and document files. The Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature makes it easy to configure your wireless devices. Just push the button on the Router and on your other Wi-Fi Protected Setup enabled wireless device to automatically create a WPA2 connection that protects your data and privacy with up to 256-bit industrial-strength encryption. The Router can serve as a DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, supports VPN pass-through, and can be configured to filter internal users' access to the Internet. Advanced configuration is a snap with the web-browser-based interface.

 for the Wii January 7, 2009
W. T. Doerr (Atlanta, GA United States)
I finally broke down and bought this for the sole purpose of hooking my Wii up to the internet. Our computer (running Vista) is on a floor above the Wii and this router worked out great. I fall somewhere in between a techno-phobe and a techno-geek and was able to get it up and running in about 15 minutes.
 Loses Security Setup / Outgoing Ports appear to be blocked January 7, 2009
R. Lee
I bought this unit and am less than impressed. I have had problems with the wireless security reverting back to WiFi randomly. I will set it to manual and configure the security how I need it and suddenly it resets itself. Second, support from Linksys is gone, vanished. I was trying to use Microsoft Remote Desktop and realized that is appeared that the outgoing port was blocked. This not documented anywhere I could find so I contacted Linksys. What a disaster. The only answer I could get was I needed to trigger the proper port for RDP to work. They did not know where this was documented and were not sure what port it was. Conveniently for them they told me I would have to reboot the router which disconnected our chat session. I finally found the answer on another forum.

Four freakin' days trying to set this POC up with my wife's computer and ONE printer!!!! br / br /Back it goes!
Better than the G1, but what a stupid case design. January 6, 2009

The WRT54G2 seems like a stopping point before wireless-N becomes the de facto standard for WiFi products. The firmware and web interface is very similar to that of the G1 router, so it's very configurable and intuitive for the somewhat technically inclined. The broadcast strength is terrific. br /So, it works well. But what is wrong with companies making products that cannot be stacked, mounted or stored anywhere except on a desktop with huge swaths of free space? This awful retro-future design makes me yearn for the DLink DIR-625 or DIR-615. Cisco, please take note: Computers are, for the most part, cubic boxes. so are desks, shelves, tables and drawers. So are my other routers and switches. This WRT54G2 comes with no mounting hardware or even a stand so it can be stored vertically, so you need a full square foot of free space on your desktop for Cisco to advertise its stupid looking black box. br /Anyway, thanks for listening. It's a good thing the WRT54G2 works so well.
great product January 6, 2009
