Summary: Useless product
Review: I purchases the WAP54G and the WPC54G. Set up was easy.
I found the WAP54G was unstable when I used a VPN over the wired connection. A firmware upgrade corrected this problem.My first attempt at wireless also worked on the first try. Then I tried 128bit WEP. The wireless connection fails at very regular intervals (3 minutes 6 seconds). 64bit WEP was stable and it was stable with WEP disabled. Linksys service made several suggestions (all obvious). After trying all channels and various hardware placements, both 64bit and 128bit WEP now fail at 3min 6sec intervals. With WEP disabled the connection is stable. I have wasted many hours on this thing. I am now shopping for a different brand.

Summary: Works great... if you don't need to change any settings...
Review: I've had the same problem others have. the box works great until you try to change any settings. then it stops responding to the wired network. support was pretty sad, it hardly seemed that the person responding had read my email. i had to go as far as sending screenshots, which didn't help. i returned one WAP54G back to linksys under RMA, got one back, and it has all the same problems so far. Right now, it only works as a very light doorstop. This is the first linksys problem i've had any problems with. I have 3 NIC's, an 8 port hub, a router, usb network adapter, and wires card from them that i've had 0 issues with.

Summary: IT in Texas
Review: I purchased the WAP54g in tangent with the WPC54g Notebook adapter, also from Linksys. I was able to set up the access point in a matter of minutes in unsecured mode. After changing security settings in the access point I have had intermittent difficulty with maintaining connection. The access point stops responding requiring a hard reset and reprogramming. After several attempts to resolve the problem with Linksys they have stopped responding to support requests. I have installed more than 50 Linksys products in the last five years and this is the first disappointment I have with any Linksys product (also the first time I have ever used their tech support). With many comparable products by other companies offering similar performance, options, and price I would recommend shopping elsewhere for wireless networking.

Summary: Great Product - No Problems!
Review: I have to admit, some of the reviews made me think twice about purchasing this WAP and the WPC54G card. However, I had absolutely no problems and I'm not an IT professional. I have WEP, MAC filtering and I'm configured to not broadcast an SSID. As far as I can tell this is a secure system. Range is not a problem. No matter where I am in my 2 story house I get a signal at 60% strength or better, and I'm mostly above 80%. I know that does not sound too good, but I can't tell the difference between 100% and 60% based on the performance. I use the wireless mostly for web browsing on the laptop. All in all this is working great for me.

Summary: Simple to install and setup, great value (price to features)
Review: Over all, my experience setting up this router was a brezze. Once I was receiving an internet IP everthing had been working without a problems. I use it for wired and wireless access at home for all my PC's and PDA.

Summary: Don't buy unless you have an IT background
Review: I bought this as an upgrade to the BEFW11S4. I already had plenty of the WPC11 cards so thought this would be a simple change of boxes. It wasn't. The new box found the Internet right away but I could not get any of my laptops to communicate with it wirelessly. Finally, I found an article on the Linksys knowledgebase suggesting changing the transmission rate on the Advanced tab to Auto from whatever it was at out of the box if you have a mixed (b) and (g) network. After that, my WiFi laptop with XP found the network. I still can't get my other laptops that have actual WPC11 Linksys cards to work with it. I've fiddled with every advanced setting there is--simple things like Beacon rate, fragmentation threshold, preamble mode, RTS threshold. Still no luck. I'm about four hours into it so far. Big loss of valuable time.

Summary: Its a nigthmare....
Review: I dont know whats the reason linksys dont upgrade the firmware of the WAP54g if it seems so inestable, I bougth a WAP54G installed and used until i tried to chance the WEP key(BIG Mistake), the AP just stop working, i tried everything and nothing seems to work until i hard-reset it, finally it work again, but if i want to chance anything and apply it then the AP just become a piece of junk. I try the Firmware upgrade and the same problem appears, Tech Support? Dont Exist...! Go elsewhere if u want to go 802.11g

Summary: Don't Waste Your Time
Review: This product never worked for me. I was fooled by the linksys reputation and the fact that I had a working BEFSR41. I wanted to keep everything Linksys so I bought this and the G notebook adapter. I could never get it to recognize the access point although everything appeared to be working. I then called support which was an absolute horrible experience. I called 6 times, waiting on hold and average of 40 min each time. I was hung up on twice, put on hold about 200 time to "check the knowledge base", lied to about being sent something in email and was told that it didnt matter to them if I returned it or not. I was also told by support that I was trying to set up a "complicated network" even though all 3 products were linksys. So after 3 days worth of headaches and horrible support I took it back and went with Belkin which setup in 5 minutes!!! Please go with them instead of Linksys. Don't be fooled like me.

Summary: great when it works, but... very flaky
Review: I've lost count of the number of times I've reset this unit to factory defaults - then it's the roll of the dice whether or not the setup wizard will find the thing on my network. When I've got everything configured, it will work great for awhile, but chances are that I'll have to spend an hour fooling with it before I can use it again. I upgraded the firmware to the latest on the LinkSys site, which seemed to help - but I'm singin' the blues again...
