Linksys's Lightning fast wireless router

...The Linksys WAG160N N300 is an ADSL2+ wireless modem router, meaning it has a a modem built in. It is for use with BT Internet connections rather than for use with a Cable broadband connection (i.e. Virgin) although a Cable version is also available. It?s an ADSL2 router, which means it supports the newer ADSL standard, which could mean faster transfer speeds although this really depends on your line quality, distance from Exchange, service with ISP, etc. The router currently costs £74.99 from PC World but a bit less at £59.99 on their website. I bought mine about 8 months ago on Ebuyer for around £55. IN THE BOX You receive two ADSL filter s, RJ11 cable, user manual, manual and software CD, power adapter and lastly, the router itself. THE ROUTER ITSELF One thing I quite like about the router is that it looks quite...

Linksys Router

Advantages: Can hook up a few computers to it,can have a password
Disadvantages: slow transfer of big files between computers

...The last review was very good but I thought I would give one more about the product itself. After purchasing a laptop it became apparent that I wouldnt want to run a cable from my broadband box to my laptop in order to use the internet especially when this is already plugged into my PC. The next logical step? By a wireless router and i'm assuming that if your are reading this then you will either be in this position or just cant be bothered with having cables all around your house anymore. As the title says this is a Linksys BEFW11S4 Wireless Access Point Router with 4-Port Switch. Fore this router to work you need to make sure that your broadband has an ETHERNET port otherwise you will need to find another router as you plug your broadband into this router via an ethernet cable in order for it to be able to send out the signal...

Linksys Wireless Router - Is it Reliable??

Advantages: Reliable, well priced and gives you freedom to move around the house!
Disadvantages: Settings dont always refresh after a power cut.

.... The only time you do notice slowness is if people are downloading via P2P applications but I think that would more be the broadband provider rather than the wireless router. This router allows you to configure port openings and such which if used correctly can speed up your downloads. It also has Ethernet connections on the back so you can have wired and wireless users connected simultaneously. The ony problem I have encountered with this router is if a power cut occurs it doesn't seem to refresh my IP settings so I have to manually connect to the router via a web browser and do an IP release, IP Renew then a refresh to check it has picked up the correct settings. This process takes about 2 minutes so it isn't that much of a hard ship as its not to often we lose power! ~Also on Dooyoo....
