Good unit but... [Posted on 2008-02-22] It's a good unit but sometimes the signal will be lost on my notebook. I don't know why but i have to unplug the power and it will be fine again. It's quite easy to setup if you know a little about networking. Overall, it's a 85 out of 100.
Great Router nothing compares [Posted on 2008-02-26] This router is the best one I've ever used. I do a lot of gaming, and I use bit torrent and download heavily. I used to have a belkin router which would constantly get choked and I would have to go downstairs to restart it. POS. Since I have bought this router, my range is MUCH better and I haven't had to touch the router. Get this router if you want a router you never need to f*** around with to get working.
AS GOOD AS N ROUTERS OUT THERE! [Posted on 2008-03-08] After trying to replace the WRT54GX with an N router to get better range, I discovered this router gives me better range than all the N routers I tried: the D-Link DIR-655, the Negear RangeMax Dual Band Wireless N router, and the Belkin N1 wireless router. Okay people, my room is VERY FAR away from the router location, and at least five walls stand in between. I get one bar from the WRT54GX, but it works. The Netgear and the Belkin routers didn't ever register a bar. The D-Link worked but dropped frequently and then locked me out. On a wireless G signal, this router appears to be as fast as the N routers. I have the SRX400 wireless card that goes with it, and when paired up with this routers, its speed is on par with any N card, N router configuration I tried. It's lighting fast. Shame on Linksys for discontinuing support for Windows Vista on adapters for this router, for giving up on its technology basically. It's awesome. I love it and in my opinion, it's the best router out there for my purpose. On a last note, it's been ultra reliable.
great product [Posted on 2008-04-07] I got this router and am very pleased with the ease of set-up and the quality of performance.
Linksys WRT54GX4 Wireless-G [Posted on 2008-05-10] Linksys products over the years have proven to be less than reliable and the WRT54GX4 may be the culmination of this dubious achievement status.
Like all Linksys products the main issues are functionality, consistency and ease of implementation. I have only thirty years experience in the IT world which perhaps under qualifies me to properly setup these units.
Avoid using these overpriced, under performing products whenever possible and you'll be much happier or disregard this review and find out why millions of people are on a first named basis with Rashis (from Bombay) one of the dozens of friendly customer support individuals sub-contracted by the company to man their very busy customer support lines 24/7. Too bad they can't ad a few more days to the week to take some of the pressure off these nice people.
