Cisco Linksys E3000

Pros: four gigabit Ethernet ports its nice seeing connected at 1000mbps ; )

Cons: still don't have open and open xboxes that was the real reason I bought this router...so I am disappointed upnp is supposed to address that NAT issue

Summary: I would recommend this product simply for its range and 4 gigabit ports and half way working upnp lol it is possible to get two open xboxes using upnp with one external ip address. But I have yet to do it with this router although I haven't tried all the fun stuff it just doesn't do it out of box. You would think by now cisco would catch on to who routers really mean a lot to Gamers and more than one behind the router because one gamer doesn't need a router or a high end one. It would be great one day to plug in two ps3s or xboxes and be like damn two open nats forever I love my life... without having a network+ but I guess not yet. The easy connect software was really easy considering that I have been setting up linksys routers for years including the famed nightmare wrt160n v2. and v3 and the older ones anyway buy it if you want a strong router

I do notice a difference especially with my sb6120

I can stream HD content off youtube or netflix with zero problems wireless even.
I stay connected wireless long range through many walls and floors where my old linksys wrt160n would drop all the time. I will be using the server usb for back up. I like the fact that I can have a guest network with a simple to use interface like as though I had a coffee shop all they need is a password. That also shows separately in a search from the 3 ssids it puts out one for 5mhz and 2.4mhz.
The built in upnp actually works well half way, for a linksys anyway. Linksys product's features never really worked anyways but now they seem to which is nice, two xboxs connected gets open and moderate(but not open and open) my file sharing program opened its port automatically. I used to get open and strict. Cisco put their name on it and took off linksys.
