Cisco systems have once again excelled in the manufacture of this latest wireless communication equipment. While offering great wireless communication between pc's, laptops, music centers and even games consoles including the Microsoft XBOX 360 or Sony Playstation 3, Cisco have managed to keep the interface and setup relatively easy for anyone with basic computer literacy. Although as i live in an area with an independant phone company i have had to aquire the settings for my router from my isp (karoo). After recieving and setting up the linksys wireless-G ADSL Home Gateway WAG200G has performed to a high standard. Its left on, in my home, for days or weeks at a time and does need a reboot from time to time, which is as simple as pressing the power button off and on again. Apart from this easy solvable problem im as happy as larry with the equipment. One problem that come with any wireless equipment, not just linksys, is a question of security. There is better secured networks by hard wiring but linksys offers three different forms of security therefore you can choose the best to suit your needs.


A quick comment for anyone considering going wireless.

While linksys offer the best in routers and customer service there is still a problem with hardware being on the less than expectant standards when i installed my first wireless router, from linksys, it took three seperate routers before i finally got one that worked cisco say because of a firmware problem so be sure that when you set up that you call the customer service number and are given a download for the latest firmware upgrades.


Overall im am completely satisfied with this latest of cisco systems wireless internet technology and give it four out of five stars it being docked one star for the reboot problems and firmware upgrade requirements

Hi and welcome to Ciao - Sorry for the low rating, but you need to put a lot more information into your review. Have a read around at similar reviews; especially those rated as very helpful or exceptional, for an idea of what people want to read in a review.
