Summary: Outsanding Value, Error Free Operation
Review: I purchased the Linksys router several months ago and I have never been more satisfied with a piece of electronic equipment. I had 3 PC's in my home and I wanted them all to share the same Cable Modem access. The installation was a piece of cake and I was up and running in about 10 mins. I have two long CAT5 cable runs in my home, one is approx. 40 ft the other is approx. 25ft the router runs them all no problem. I highly recommend this router to anyone looking to network multiple computers in their home or small business.

Summary: Does what it was designed to do and more
Review: Perfect. No slow down, it's been running continuously for a month now with no glitches. I send huge files (5 GB is my record) over the network. I share a printer, I've used it to link xboxes, people come over and I add their laptops to the network. All in all, a perfect product.

Summary: Works for me...
Review: I waited to review this item to see if it had longevity. It has
been working perfectly now for 9 months. Set up was easy: make
the connections to the ethernet cards in the computers and to
the DSL Modem and then tell the DSL Router the login and
password to the DSL service. All the defaults in the DSL Router
worked fine for my set-up.

Summary: Thoughts on reliability
Review: Other reviewers have pointed out that these routers tend to die after some time. If you're getting a Linksys router, you may want to consider doing what I did. Noting the frailty of the unit, I bought the three year warranty, where the store will replace the unit if it breaks, no questions asked. Even with the extra warranty, the unit was inexpensive, and if it breaks, the store probably has more clout with Linksys than I do. The four star rating is due to the unit's easy setup.

Summary: great router, but...
Review: This router is really easy to set up, but the instruction manual is completely useless if you're a Macintosh user. You can sort of bluff your way through it and infer, but if you're not computer savvy you might have a hard time. Tech support over the phone is responsive, but they kinda treat Mac and Linux users like aliens.I purchased this router back in June. By September it started acting up on me. Suddenly, my ping rates dropped to 70% loss and I wasn't able to run limewire. I bought the exact same router and after entering all the same settings, the new router is running great (again). Hopefully that was a fluke and this new router will last more than 3 months. My last gripe has to do with dynamic IP. Every now and again my provider changes my IP address, and I have to manually refresh the router to see the new IP address. I would've hoped that it woul detect the change on its own. If it's supposed to...well, mine doesn't.

Summary: Quality Router
Review: I have had my linksys router for a couple months now and it still works great. It is made by by a great company, has a cool look, is compact, and is very fast. This works great for a home with high speed internet that has more than one computer. We just wired our home with cat5 and we would only have the best.

Summary: Save Time -- Use a Linksys Router
Review: 1. The Linksys router worked out of the box, as advertised, with very easy setup. 2. It connects to my internet service provider (ISP), and five PC's in all at home. Three PC's connect direct to the router/switch, the other two through a Linksys Ethernet switch (purchased a while back, and completely compatible). 3. Save yourself time, use a hardware router that is inexpensive, fast, and reliable instead of trying to create a home network using a PC and software. 4. Thank you!

Summary: Dead On Arrival
Review: Out of the box, only the power light lit up when I connected my Ethernet cables to it. The cable access technician confirmed it was DOA. Seems cheaply made.

Summary: Installation was as smooth as silk
Review: I'm a mechanical klutz. I admit it. But I got this router installed so quick to my exisiting desktop PC and to my new laptop, that arrived last night, that I thought I had missed something. The set-up CD-ROM worked flawlessly. I'm baffled by the negative comments I read regarding this router and other Linksys products. I have no complaints. Remember a couple of things before you start installation: You'll need extra Cat 5 ethernet cables, you'll probably just need a short one to connect the modem to the router and longer ones from the router to your PCs; Have your work order handy from your original cable internet installation, it'll have important info that you may need if the set-up disk can't detect your particular computer info, like IP address and domain/gateway name, if you still need the IP address, go to the command prompt from the accessories menu in Win XP and type in 'ipconfig' and it'll give the info you need.
