Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This has been Factory-Refurbished to perform as new. It includes a 90-Day Linksys Warranty.
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.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works well so far
Our old Netgear router stopped working (the wireless part) so we had to get something new. The reviews for the Netgear router comparable to this Linksys WRT54G2 were a little scary. So we decided to try a Linksys router this time.

Installation was easy and the product works well. My 16-year-old son did the job for us, and did it well. The CD installation software that comes with the router is for beginners. If you have had experience working with routers, you will want to just dive in and do it yourself. Much quicker. Even my inexperienced son found the installation software took too long to do simple things.

When using the router settings page to adjust settings, I liked the Netgear approach better. This Linksys router settings page leaves a little bit ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Updated Product
Bought this a couple months back to replace an old Linksys WRT54GS that had started dying when connecting devices to the integrated switch (which a couple of my machines actually do). So far the WRT54G2 has proven as fast or faster than its predecessor and much more reliable, so the unusual new design doesn't seem to have impaired it any. Range may even have improved slightly. The old router would occasionally choke after heavy use by wireless clients or stop leasing addresses, but this one works flawlessly 24/7. I've had as many as 8 wireless clients running simultaneously without issues. XBox Live also works flawlessly with the router. For people who like to mod their router with firmwares and big external antennas this is probably not the device you're looking for, but in my experience ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This Works Seamlessly
We upgraded our old Linksys B wireless router, that had only worked wirelessly without a secure login, many dropouts and no true networking, with the Linksys WRT54G2 Wireless-G Broadband Router and it works seamlessly and securely with PC, 2 notebooks, camera and PS3. It works anywhere in the house, upstairs and downstairs and we are very happy with its stability and excellent networking availability.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - for the Wii
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.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Loses Security Setup / Outgoing Ports appear to be blocked
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.
