I generally like Linksys wireless products and their reliability and ease of use, but this one was WAY more difficult than it should have been to set-up and install; too many steps required. You would think it would basically be plug and play, like many other networking products now days -- but not the case. I consider myself fairly adept at home networking and yet I even still had issues. Had to contact Linksys to get further support. Was trying to connect this adapter to my HD DirectTV box. Haven't had any problems since I got it up and running, but beware -- with limited or even broad home networking experience, it may cause you a challenge to get going.

Desiring to try WiFi with a growing assortment of devices in the family and a three node network of old Mac desktops on a hard wired Ethernet, based on the reviews here on Amazon, I purchased the E3000/WET610N discount special. Opened the E3000 box, switched the jacks from my Linksys Etherfast Cable/DSL router to the E3000, ran the enclosed CD on my G5 PowerPC Mac running OSX 10.5.8, followed the directions and in about six minutes, our new WiFi system was up and running, connected hard wired to the existing three nodes, and talking WiFi to two iPOD Touches, and my grandson's school furnished Apple laptop. Tomorrow I'll add the WET610N and have my LG550BluRay player on line downstairs on our living room 46" Samsung for streaming videos.Don't understand the problems expressed in some of the earlier reviews.Installation couldn't have been simpler and the software on the CD did all the work.I don't know squat about all the technical alphabet stuff discussed in some of the earlier reviews and didn't need to.The thing works great right out of the box. The array of indicator lights to show what the system is doing is great fun and handy to see everything come on line when you first hook it up.Taking the hint about adding feet to raise the thing higher, I found four half inch corks in our kitchen drawer and stuck them on the bottom with some Ambroid model airplane cement. Seems like a great idea as the rubber feet that come stock are only about a sixteenth inch. My old router got pretty hot and the E3000 runs a lot cooler. Wouldn't hurt Cisco to spend a few more pennies on some higher feet.You can get a copy of the user guide at www.cisco.com via the support option on the Cisco home page. I've been using the old hard wire Ethernet router for four years without a hickup. Cisco makes good gear and smart software.

I've purchased this router from Amazon, used it for 3 weeks, and had to return it. Here's my story.I purchased this router because I like my old Linksys routers (BEFSR41, WRT54G) very much, and I like its simultaneous dual-band spec. I also purchased two Linksys AE1000 802.11n adapters. I setup my network through web interface and everything works in 10 minutes.After a week's use (I'm a heavy user -- my family watch Internet TVs), the router suddenly reset itself automatically with no warning. All my settings were gone and I had to re-configure it again. I thought maybe it was because of overheating, but it did not become very hot. I'd decided to give it another shot.After another week, the router reset itself AGAIN. This time I decided this is not an accident. So I restored the settings and directly went to Cisco support via Live Chat. The representative in Pune was very responsive, and he suggested me to update my firmware. Although I wondered how could that make a difference since the firmware is already same version, I followed his instructions. This time the router worked a bit longer.10 days later, the router reset itself AGAIN. I restored the settings, went to Live Chat again. They put me on wait for like 10 minutes, and offered me an RMA exchange. Well, since I was still barely in Amazon's 30-day return period, I simply got an Amazon RMA instead. I ordered D-Link 655 instead, and it works perfectly so far.Interestingly, my AE1000 never reached speed over 240Mbps with Linksys E3000, but the first day I hooked my D-Link 655 the speed is solid 300Mbps. Same positions, same computers. That really makes me wonder why should I pay much more for weaker signal and the auto-resetting bug. I'd suggest against this router unless Cisco is able to fix the auto-reset bug. It's really annoying for people doing manual setups.

I had been contemplating getting a new router for a few months now. Reading reviews, you always read something bad about any product. My current (now old) router was a WRT54GS, which was just about 5 years old and still going strong. Decided to purchase the E3000, and I have been happy with everything so far except the Cisco disk setup. I quickly abandoned the CD setup and went straight to the web-based utility. Took me about 15-20 minutes to complete the setup. Have 2 old "G" computers, 2 "N" computers, a Wii and a wireless Blu-Ray all running great since the install. Signal strength is definitely better with this router, and I haven't been dropping any connections since I got it running. Able to watch HD movies over NetFlix with no problems at all.As far as heat goes it seems to run a little warmer that my old router, but I will be using some cork or 1" scraps to raise it up. Will see how that works, but I don't foresee any issues

This will be the last linksys product I will ever own.The product works sometimes...every few weeks it goes brain dead and will not connect to my wireless network.Hard reboots do not work. To restore its functionality, I have to go through the initial setup all over again.It is at the latest firmware level.When I contact Linksys, they tell me it is out of warranty and will not help me in any way unless I buy a service contract at 50% of what I paid for the device. To make it worse, they tell me they have to check the firmware level even though I tell them I have already done that.Buy something else from a company who offers better support.

I just purchased this item. I discovered there are two interfaces to the router:1. Cisco Connect (CC) that runs via CD-ROM disc2. Browser interface using [...], user=admin, password=******The browser interface does not give you access to two options:1. Wireless Guest account access2. Parental controlsTo configure these, you need the CC. If you change certain configurations onn the browser interface, you can lock out CC! The only way to recover is to reset the router, and lose all your configuration settings from the browser interface.Linux users cannot use the CC software, since it only runs under Windows.Suggestion: the browser interface should include all the configuration features allowed by CC.See link: [...]Kevin Rosteing

Update 8/17/2010: Returning this router, doesnot work with Cisco VPN. What a wast of time. Downgrading to 0 star. Thinking of buying "WNDR3700".Update 8/13/2010: Downgrading to 3 stars, since it did not work with VPN. After a couple of hrs of debugging, tech support asked to return this unit. I will update once I have the replacement.Range is Good, Size is Bad, Desktop client is UglyGood: - Wireless range is awesome. Even range of "G" is atleast two times better then my old "G" router. - There are two ways you can set it up o Via desktop client that you need to install on your windows / Mac system. o Via browser. - The desktop client is very easy to use and in few clicks it will configure itself with you DSL or Cable model. The easiest setup I every used. But see the ugly section for gotchas.Bad: - The size is significantly large and shape is irregular. - It cannot be placed as vertically stand up. Can only be installed as flat on the desk or mounted on the wall.Ugly: - Option to setup, enable and disable guest SSID for wireless is only available through desktop client . Browser based interface does not provide you this option. - If you have changed some of the router features like password and router name etc. then desktop client will not work anymore. You have to reset router to factory defaults and have to reinstall desktop utility to make it work. - There is no user name / password security to access the desktop client. - Advance setting password and SSID password required to be same otherwise desktop client will not work.

This was a little more straghtforward to install from the instructions on the CD than was the router. I bought this bridge to be able to stream movies from the web through my Sony BluRay player. It took a few tries and some hand-holding from my IP's tech support, but we got it up and running and "talking" to my computer through the router in about 20 minutes.Surprisingly, the Netflix directions were very clear and I soon had movies on my BluRay menu.

Up until now I have been a Netgear user, but decided to give this Cisco Linksys product a try based on generally favorable trade reviews. Setup was easy for one desktop connected by ethernet cable and three laptops on wireless. That worked until my laptops went into sleep mode. My laptops have Windows XP, Vista and 7 and they all dropped the wireless connectivity when in sleep mode. I tried reconnecting both with the Cisco installed easy connect program and manually using the password - both failed. The only way I could reconnect was to wipe out the original Cisco download and reload from start. I checked the blogs, Cisco FAQ site, turned off the sleep mode - left hard drives always on, nothing worked. So I pulled the Cisco and put it back into its orginal box and will sell it on Craigslist. Back to Netgear for me.So bottom line is the router looks nice, has easy setup, no problem with ethernet cable connection, good range and data rate when working, but constantly drops wirless connections. Cisco has some work to do on reliability - buy something else instead.

.I bought this product lately as a "refurbished unit" (thanks to the wonderful state of economy + a few discount coupons) from Cisco's official website. So far the performance has been exceptional. No more disconnects, and no more annoying intermittent internet "hiccups". This router can easily be setup using Windows/OSX platform via enclosed CD (Cisco Connect) or http: 192.168.0.1.* Important * The laptop (used for configuring the router) should be 4-5 ft away from the router if you are configuring it w/o attaching the ethernet cable.* Important * If you install it via the traditional method of ethernet + http 192.168 ... , and if you modify any passwords, than the CD won't run unless you change the passwords back to original.Pros using the CD (Cisco Connect):a) It's a true "One-Step" setup. All you need to do is to insert the CD in the drive and sit back (remember, its 4ft to 5 ft) and relax and the router will get setup all by itself.b) Using the CD (Cisco Connect) allow you to turn on/off the guest account (by default it's "on") , change guest password etc.c) The device works perfectly fine even if you had it install via traditional ethernet + 192.168 .... So don't sweat over the fact of not getting the installation done via Cisco Connect.Take care and Happy Browsing :))

I think this router is great. Setup was a little bumpy for me, but once I had it up and running my home wi-fi was fast and smooth. The only problem for me is that the USB port is not HFS+ compatible, which means that I can't plug my external hard drive into the back of the router and use it as a wireless time machine drive for my macbook. Aside from this not making it time machine compatible, many external drives have HFS+ format, which is supposed to be the latest and best format according to what I've read. Turns out to be a deal-breaker since one of the main reasons I purchased this model was to have wireless access to my 2TB drive. I should have done more formatting homework before purchasing. I'm returning it and going with an airport extreme.

I am very satisfied with the Cisco-Linksys E3000. Lightning hit a tree on the corner of our property. The surge from this destroyed the cable to our house, the cable modem, and the router. I was told that the router was okay, so I spent days and days trying to make it work. Then I ordered the Cisco router. In about 45 minutes it was set up and working. We are very satisfied with the product. I highly recommend it.

The overall wireless performance is very good. Firewall features are Ok but lacking services like VPN. MAC based DHCP reservations are now included, which is great. I have tried the integrated NAS with an 8GB SanDisc USB thumb drive. It works but don't expect screaming performance. Theere are QoS settings supporting Rhapsody, iTunes, Skype and the major messenger services. Also includes an integrated FTP server which I have yet to mess with.The include Cisco Connect software is awful! Unfortunately you must use it if you want to setup a guest WiFi account (limited to 10 users), a feature not available through the web interface. The Cisco Connect configurator is incapable of syncing with any "advanced" setting made through the web interface. forcing you to use stupid password rules and other assumptions enforced when you use the software. Additionally the out-of-box setup CD-ROM application failed for me due to a non-expired DHCP lease from my broadband modem, ultimately requiring a modem rest to give up the old lease. The Linksys error screen suggested unplugging my modem for two minutes. Well, my Comcast broadband modem also provides phone service and has an internal battery, so unplugging for a few minutes would do nothing. Some users may become frustrated with such poorly thought through trouble shooting advice.Another annoyance is there seems no way to change the assigned "server" name.If you are familiar with the WRT54g series, the E3000 will seem very familiar. If you are less than network inclined and think you may use Cisco Connect, be prepared for a few tech support calls.For those interested in using the web interface out of the box; the default IP is 192.168.1.1 on the LAN ports. Default user name/password: admin/admin.Despite my gripes the wireless speed makes up for the short comings which may some day be fixed in a firmware update.

Nobody has ever been fired for buying cisco but in this case they should have been. Overheats badly and always kicks you off the web, tech support is a joke and the funny thing is when I RMAed this back to cisco it took forever to get a new one back and it was just a refurb that still had the last users information on it all I can say is WOW. I am really let down I thought this being cisco it would be top of the line boy was I wrong!

I bought this device from Amazon to connect our new Sony KDL52XBR9 HDTV thru our home's 2WIRE wireless DSL modem/router. I originally tried to use the WET's setup CD wizard as instructed by the prominent sticker on the CD sleeve that says "Run CD First before connecting cables", but the wizard never detected the WET. I gave up, moved the unit to the Sony, plugged everything together, followed the TVs setup instructions and the WET610n worked fine for about a week. Then the wireless transmit lite went dark and the TV said it had lost its internet connection. I downloaded the manual from Linksys, read it, and was finally able to get everything working again.Long (and frustrating) story short. Depending on your system requirements and application; the WET610n may take some technical skill to setup successfully and even then may require technical troubleshooting to resolve connectivity & setup issues. So far, upgrading the WET610n firmware and maybe resetting the idle timeout to the max has kept the device continuously on our network as desired but not without frequent intermittent dropouts and connectivity interruptions. The bitrate is not great either, just a measly 1Mbps. Our 5year old 2WIRE DSL wireless modem/router is capable of 22Mbps, so 1Mbps from the WET610n is disappointing and barely usable with typical content such as YouTube. Yes, I know we need a newer, faster wireless DSL modem, but SBC didn't want to provide one that would handle more than 1 wireless connection as opposed to this old 2WIRE unit that will handle up to 4 connections.I feel Sony could have picked a more user-friendly and connection-reliable device to specify in their setup manual. One that works seamlessly out of the box with Windows Vista.Update March 2010: Well, the WET again stopped transmitting after staying up for the last 6months. I was never able to get it back on my network so I could talk to it and fix it. I eventually called Linksys/Cisco Tech Support, which proved to be very frustrating. They use India foreign nationals for tech support who are nearly unintelligible. After 40min of going thru the usual "repair script" then being disconnected, I again had to fix it myself. I did a reset of the WET with its rear panel switch, plugged it into my laptop and was able to talk to it on its default IP. Upgraded the firmware to ver 1.0.03, entered all the IP and SSID info (My router IP had Changed! contrary to what Tech Support claimed)commanded it to connect & it did. As soon as it got assigned a new IP by my 2wire router it's new unknown IP made it impossible to talk to again. I would like to backup the configuration, but I cant find it's new IP! I think I may need some WLAN sniffer software to find it now. Any reccomendations?

Works great with my Cisco-linksus wireless router. Have it attached to a switch in my office with three PC's on the switch and none have difficulty with their internet connection. It was a bit more complicated to setup than I expected. Being tech savvy, I was fine, but I suspect some might have serious difficulty trying to get it configured.

I bought this item simply to stream netflix through my PS3 and for 2 laptops and 1 printer in a nut shell support was very bad, item never worked as it should I held on to it to long and ate the $150 dollars I paid, I then bought a netgear 3400 and its worked perfect, better than the e3000 ever did with no set up hassel. I had my ps3 hard wired to the e 3000 router and it would still drop it off the ethernet with DSN error and not connected to ethernet, Cisco support wanted me to pay for port numbers for the ps3 (kind of common don't ya think?)why wouldn't it come with this anyway? I got them from ps3 at no cost but it still didn't help anything. Linksys support said change this change that ect...nothing worked and couldn't even understand the first rep. I talked too. Just one bad unit? I don't think so lots of others with issues on this router. My recommendation is Netgear WNR3400 Dual band, and run from linksys I hope they just go away.

Pretty decent out of the box for novice user who's interested in zero customization. Guest access is an interesting idea to provide controlled wi-fi to your guests (or neighbors). Very set it and forget it for the most part. Cisco Connect provides simple interface for most basic of functions. However, if you need (or just want!) to customize settings, names, router login/password then Cisco Connect goes away. Unfortunately, that seems to mean you lose ability to manage guest access password. Tech support, not surprising, consists of resetting router to factory settings and then learn to love Cisco Connect.My router lost all settings after about 3 months, but fairly straightforward to recover (given above limitations).Range is pretty decent; delivers full video 50' through several walls while supporting Wii, PS3 and three computers.I don't know if I'd get myself another one, but good enough for non-techs like mom!

Had this for about 6 months and finally replaced it with the Netgear N600 Dual Band. I am MUCH happier - better range, better connectivity, much easier setup vs. the Cisco\Linksys.The Cisco had pretty poor range on the Wireless-N 5 GHZ setting. I also had connectivity issues with an iPad, new Dell PC and iPhone.The software for the Cisco was terrible especially if you need to use the advanced function. I had the Netgear up and running in about 15 minutes total, with my port forwarding settings and two wifi networks (I did not run the included software, but just connected to the browser interface).On the Cisco the guest network was enabled by default when using their software. As other posters have mentioned you can't turn it off through the "advanced" browser interface. On the Netgear it was off by default (the sensible way to do it).In summary, buy at your own risk and YMMV based on other reviews. I recommend the Netgear N600.

Try to use the software for installation right out of the box, but gave me an error message. So, I gave up, and used browser for installation via control panel instead. Found the device, leave user name blank and type in admin as password, similar to all Linksys products. Voila, it works after the first try. What amaze me is the range of 5GH, which is pretty good in my house where the Netgear wndr4000 router is located in library, and the device is located in the family room, 50 to 60ft away at the min. So far so good, I haven't experienced any drop signal yet. Great product with decent speed and range.

I've only had this unit about a month so far. (02/2011) Set-up was much easier than my WRT-54G. Range is improved, and speed is much better. Seemed like the model 54 was slowing down, which I don't understand??? This unit has had no issues, so I didn't give the highest marks for support, although I have used their support before on another install and found them very helpful. I intend to add a backup drive to the router, so will have more opinions when I get that working. The only frustration I have has been in hooking up a printer that uses a print server. It appears I will have to lug all 40 pounds of printer and server up to the router for initial setup. My other printer with built in wifi worked great and was super simple to connect. Their connection wizard is great!

Just got it as an upgrade to a wireless G router.Setup: - Setup was a snap. Don't know about other people, and their setup issues, but the setup went quickly and smoothly. Took about 5 minutes to hook it up and another 5 minutes to get my computer (WinXP) on the network. - Within 10 minutes, I had my daughter's MacBookPro and my 2 Kindles also on the network.Use and Performance: - Much faster. Browsing is noticably quicker. - VPN access to the network at work also noticably faster. - Signal strength is excellent throughout the house. Much better than with my old router (with its ugly antennas). The sleek look is a plus. - The software is quite good. For simple access, the Connect application is easy and handy, and for more detailed access, you can get the browser-based setup and control application which gives you tons of controlOverall, very satisfied.

It took me a while to solve this problem and Linksys is of little support. I have an extensive home network with multiple PC's (wired and wireless) Media connected TV, Network drives, Tivo's and other connected items. After install all PC's could connect wired or wirelessly to the Internet but when I viewed my local network nothing showed up. No shares. Symptoms were different on XP, Vista and W7 PC's. After trying several things I decode to rename my workgroup on each PC' After renaming the workgroup to a new name on each PC everything worked. So if you have a home network with file and print sharing watch out for this setup problem.

I purchased this product so that I would be able to have ON DEMAND access with a DirectTV HD/DVR receiver. I noticed that this is the same product you would get if you ordered it from DirectTV directly, but it's cheaper from AMAZON, because of the free shipping. I had some difficulty getting it to work at first, which is why I only gave it a 4-star rating. During the initial setup, even though I could see my wireless network in the list to select from, and I did select it, the installation did not complete without error. It was only after I selected the box indicating that I didn't see my network, and then entered the information manually, that the procedure went through completely. Since then, it has worked like a charm.I wish I could say that it was worth the effort. The programming that is available for download for free is not at all impressive. But that has nothing to do with the hardware, of course.

I bought two of these at the suggestion of Cisco to use with my Cisco Valet Plus so my kids could play their video games in their rooms. Neither one has been reliable, constant problems not working almost once a week for the four months since we got them. Finally Cicso admits the bridges are bad but they won't give us the RMA number they require for a return, so we can't even send them back for exchange. We have spent hours and hours and days and days on the phone with supervisors trying to get the situation resolved but they just pass the buck and don't follow through with their promises. Having the names of the people we spoke to means nothing, having all the documentation means nothing and having bought them from Amazon.com is no help either now because it is over 45 days since we bought them so Amazon says too bad. STAY AWAY FROM CISCO AND THEIR SUBSIDIARIES INCLUING LYNKSYS!!

I purchased a Cisco router and print server several years ago and was very happy with the product and the service. I wanted to upgrade that router, so bought the e3000. When I installed the e3000, I could not get it to communicate with my existing Cisco print server. I tried Cisco customer support, but they refused to help because they said the print server was out of warranty. That seems silly. The issue is the communication with the new router, not a warranty claim on the old print server. The print server works fine; it was working an hour earlier when I disconnected my old router. I needed help with the new product, but Cisco refused to provide it on a brand new, relatively expensive router.I'm the first to admit that the product probably works great and just needs a minor technical adjustment. That's why tech support is important. Very disappointed.

Cisco-Linksys WET610N Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming and Video AdapterDoing anything with a network can be a real nightmare. This was probably the easiest network installation I've ever experienced. Just insert the CD, plug the device into your router, wait for it to set itself up, select a password, then go plug it in to whatever you want to connect to your network. (I hooked up my Dish TV box.) Completely painless. I was streaming Dish content in less than 15 minutes total.

First off the positives: It's a great router, the simultaneous bands makes a nice improvement over older routers. Seems reliable to boot. All the rest of the good stuff seems clearly covered in other reviews so I thought I'd mention my key issues.This was the most difficult router to set up that I've ever dealt with. Why? For whatever reason the Cisco Connect software just wouldn't work right on my computer, it kept getting to the part where it wanted to repair the internet and just staying there despite my internet connection being fine throughout. Why can I not skip this part and continue on with the setup? Eventually I just did it the old manual way after giving up on the software.There is also a disparity between the Cisco Connect software and the router's webpage interface (or advanced setup). There are some features (guest network, parental controls) only accessable from the Cisco Connect software. This was a problem for me because I can't use the Cisco Connect software and as a result can't set up a guest network. Just seems rather stupid, for lack of a better word, that all the features aren't accessable through the "advanced mode". Hopefully Linksys/Cisco will fix this in a firmware update.Also important is that if you set up the router the manual way or if you ever change the SSID or admin password on your own from the manual way then you can no longer use the Cisco Connect software and will in fact have to reset the router to be able to use it again. Also a stupid decision from my point of view.Again, in the end it's a good router, but it seems flawed in an attempt to make it simple by trying to push people to use the Cisco Connect software (the instructions don't make it very clear that you CAN do it the old fashion way).

I wanted higher wireless speed for media streaming so I replaced my old SMC wireless G bridge with the WET610N for access to my DLNA media server and some lab machines. No trouble configuring it or with signal strength but the WET610N acted like a router/firewall instead of a bridge - my streaming device could not see it after it was connected via the WET610N even though nothing else was changed. I had no trouble with internet access so it was working but it acted like it was blocking ports or showing some kind of non-bridge behavior. I know it wasn't a software problem on the DLNA server because as soon as I added a wireless NIC to it and disconnected the WET610N - problem solved. I would caution anyone to not waste time on the WET610N - if it acts screwy, put a NIC in the machine and see if that fixes it like it did for me. I wasted about 10 hours on it.

I've owned this router for about 5 months now. I was a little scared when I first started looking around because the last router I had was a complete pain in the butt. I'm not a IT professional, nor do I feel I should have to be one in order to enjoy wireless internet. Enter the E3000. I followed the easy hook up instructions, put the software onto my two laptops (also easy via a thumb drive), and was online in less than 10 minutes.I actually said aloud "That's IT? That's all I have to do?"Since installation I've had ZERO problems with the router. It is lightning fast and coverage is FANTASTIC both upstairs and down. On several occasions we have watched HD movies online by plugging an HDMI from my laptop to the TV and have had no problems with the bandwidth at all.So, bottom line, if you're in need of an idiot-proof (or just easy) wireless router that can be used throughout the entire household (and in the back yard), by multiple people and devices, this is it. Buy it and enjoy.

I ordered the WET610N to use with my DirecTV DVR HD receiver. Once I got it connected wirelessly to my Verizon DSL router, it functioned just fine.However, when I put the installer CD into my Mac, my computer told me that the CD contained no data. After several attempts to insert the disk and use it, I called Cisco technical support. I was told that technical support would setup the WET610N but in return for a $9.99 charge, which would be refunded if they failed. The charge was so that the technician could take over my computer by remote. The first technician Justie C (19064) failed and decided to send me up to the next level of support. I was told that I would hear from that level in thirty minutes. Several hours later someone called Marlin called but he hung up before I could reach the phone. I heard on my answering machine that his first and only call was their last attempt to reach me. I then called again. The new technician Ruary Feb (11497) refused to transfer me to the higher level of support because he knew that he could solve the problem. He too failed but only after making an attempt first on my Mac laptop and then on my Mac tower. He managed to get himself into a position where everything he did affected both computers simultaneously. Both of the technicians had refused to answer my question, "Why is their nothing on the CD?" At the end of my session with the second technician, I tried a different question, "Would the CD work on a PC?" The answer he gave was "Yes." After I hung up, I borrowed a PC laptop from my next door neighbor. I easily set up the WET610N. I then called technical support one more time and spoke with Louie (10941) and told him that I wanted my $9.99 refunded since they had not solved the problem. He spoke with his supervisor and agreed to refund the money in a week. It has now been two weeks without the refund showing up in my credit card account.If you have a Mac, you probably also need a friend with a PC to set up the device.

i've been rocking a wrt54g for a long time. running the dd-wrt firmware. it's been fantastic. i am hardwired on my desktop and share the wireless with my gf for our laptops.i really wanted this router to work out. the styling on it is really gorgeous. (+1 star).however i'm on my second e3000. the first one would drop to 5Mbps down (i'm on a 25Mbps connection) after being on for a day+. if i released and refreshed the ip then it would jump back up to normal speeds, but then overtime, slowly degrade till is leveled out at 5Mbps. i usually leave my computer on over night since i do batch renders.spent an hour chatting with cisco and after tweaking the mtu and qos they said it was a bad unit and offered me an rma#.now i'm on my second one and although it's not leveling out at 5Mbps (rather 9-10Mbps with stutter jumps in the download as seen from the [...]speed test), there is a noticeable degradation in speed over time (as experienced in simple net browsing). the same solutions work to get the speed back to peak(release/renew the ip, reset the router, enable DMZ then disable) but this shouldn't be happening! it's not an issue with the wireless however, only the wired LAN.when the router is working, it's great! (+1 star). but unfortunately, it's not working as it should.planning on refunding this and going with another model. i'm guessing it's a firmware problem and they'll eventually resolve it, but i'll avoid the frustration until then.i wouldn't recommend this buggy router unless your network is strictly wireless. and even then it seems like you're paying a premium for something that isn't working as it should.

Between Amazon.com and C-Net.com, I think I've read every review ever written on this router. It has received many 1 star rating from "advanced geeks", but mostly 4 or 5 star ratings from "ordinary" computer users. Geeks complain that they can't "tweak" the settings. The rest of us are GLAD its not necessary to "tweak" a single thing on this router. It sets up in about 10 minutes, and it didn't ask me any questions about my MAC address, ISP settings, or anything else I don't know the answer to. ITS UP AND RUNNING.I bought this to stream Netflix movies. It transmits at "N" speeds, has Gigabit Ethernet, and transmits in dual bands AT THE SAME TIME. My Roku box receives dual bands simultaneously, and is optimized for "N" speed. It all fits together. Color me happy.

The router works great. The performance, the range and the reliability are everything I've come to expect of Cisco. The feature set is great and everything works as promised.Important to note - the router can automatically choose the least used radio channels for best WiFi performance.Using the disk that comes with it for initial configuration is a bad idea if you know how to setup a router because it leaves you with things like the guest network that you cannot get rid of later (what is that for???), but it does leave you with a secure working setup and you don't have to use it.

Just received this bridge from amazon and had it working in less than 10 minutes. I used the automatic set up on my Sony XBR9 TV and the blue button on my Cisco E1200 router. Prior to arrival I found a "how to" Cisco pdf document on the web that instructed users to totally disregarded the installation CD.

like many reviews pointed out earlier, this router overheats very easily, especially now in spring/summer time, causing random disconnection of wireless/wired network. Putting a fan on it solves the problem, but that's not what I bought the router for.Overall a poorly designed product. Wonder Linksys/cisco ever test their own product? Very disappointed.

I wanted to change out my G-based bridge (also a Linksys) with an N-based solution. Slim pickings. That said, however, I very pleased with the performance of this Cicso-Linksys bridge.This bridge, unlike my G-based model, has only a single ethernet port. The G-based model had a built-in 5-port switch. Initially, I used this N-based model with my Tivo. It's out in the living room and my Linksys E3000 router is in the master bedroom. I didn't have any problems at all getting the bridge set up. The coverage is fine. I could probably use it to attach to my neighbor's router, the coverage is that good. I stream a lot of Netflix movies and have only occasionally had momentary "delay" issues. I've noticed that it's usually because of the internet service I have rather than the device itself. Telltale signs are that my laptop seems to lag at the same time, etc.Shortly after the intial configuration I set up (1 Tivo plugged directly into the bridge), I purchased a small 5-port Linksys switch. I plugged my Tivo into the switch, a 2nd Tivo into the swtich, and also my TV into the switch--and then plugged the switch into the bridge. It all works flawlessly.Don't fear this bridge. If you have more than one device to hook up, just use a switch with it. You won't regret it.

I ordered this router after reading reviews of tons of other wireless routers available on amazon, and it works perfectly - it is easy to setup (no troubles at all whatsoever), no blinking lights on the front of the router, very lightweighted and compact. Couldnt have asked for a better router for someone who is not tech-savy and for someone who just wants a simple router that works as specified and as per its 5 star reviews!

After reading some of the negative reviews (not working with Windows 7, difficult to setup), I was a little hesitant making this purchase. But, I'd always had good luck with Linksys products before, so I went ahead and gave it a shot. It arrived today - I had had it delivered to my work address. I got home 30 minutes ago and, literally, it's already downloaded 2 movies from DirecTV On Demand.The setup couldn't be easier. My guess is, those who wrote negatives about the setup must not have read or understood the procedures before starting. I'm not belittling any of the other reviews; rather, I'm just shocked that anyone would have thought the installation was difficult. Read over the manual once or twice before you start (it's a bunch of easy steps), then do what the install disk tells you to do. I was up in, literally, about 4 minutes.And, obviously my other concern about it not working with Windows 7 was unfounded. I have Windows 7 Home Premium and had no issues what-so-ever.And, in case it was missed on the paragraphs above, I hooked this up to an R22 DirecTV box to get HD On Demand.No problems what-so-ever. So far, very much recommended. If anything changes (because, granted, this review is being written less than hour of having it completely installed and setup), I will revise the review and let everyone know.THIS SECTION ADDED ON 3/9/2010:I've now had the product for a few months and still am very happy with it. Although, I have noticed that, on a few occasions, a notice comes up on DirecTV saying that the connection was lost and that I need to either fix it, or continue and fix the connection later. Being that the DirecTV internet connection procedure can be a little tedious, I'm actually able to bypass all of this by unplugging my Linksys adapter from the wall for about 20 seconds, plugging it back in, and then waiting for about a minute. After that point, everything operates normally.This procedure happens a little more often than I'd like, but it appears as if it could be due to the adapter overheating. I can't say for sure, though. I'm just going off the fact that the connection always restores when the adapter is turned off then back on.Other than that, I still give it a thumbs up.

My home network is not simple. It has multiple subnets and is not just a single wireless router. I say that because my installation problems may not be experienced by everyone. The built-in wizard would not work for me at all.However, the user's guide PDF on the CD did fine at explaining how I can manually set everything up. Once I abandoned the wizard, setup was only a 5 minute effort.My use for this product is different than what I saw in a lot of other reviews. I have a VoIP telephone handset that can only work with wired ethernet. I needed a product that could A) let it connect wirelessly and B) have good enough performance, reliability and QoS for the voice calls to be clear.This product does great on both of those counts. I am far enough from my access-point to only get a 51% signal strength with this device and the voice quality is perfect. I am certain that it would work equally well for me for Video and data if I ever needed to use it for something else.That's the great thing about it that helped me justify the cost. I can use it to convert anything else that is wired ethernet only to being wireless.Even with the install headaches, I find it a 5 star product.

Took a long time to setup with installation disk, but finally after 3 tries was completed. Running well with Trendnet 5 port 10/100 Mbps switch. Driving Netflic movies and DirectTv Ethernet connection, will add Blue-ray player in next few days. Overall satisfied with router but a little pricey for just a single Ethernet connectio but would recommend to those need Ethernet Remote Router.
