"Easy to install, very good speed." on by pbscn
Pros: Good conn. Speeds 80-125M typical, WPA-PSK encryption and others.
Cons: Like the man in the video said, no wall mount bracket.
Summary: I recently purchased my first wireless router, the Linksys WRT54GS and 2 WMP54GS PCI adapters cards for my 2 desktop pcs. In short, they work great. I get connection speeds from 54 - 125 MHz on both computers, one on the same floor, one upstairs. I use the router to connect to my DSL modem which came with my Earthlink DSL subscription. I knew almost nothing about the wireless security so I was a little hesitant to go wireless - not a problem at all. Linksys has a great tutorial on their website which explains the different types of encryption. Instead of the old WEP, I switched to WPA-PSK which is much more secure (my old wireless card, SMC 54Mhz would not support the new WPA standard). When you logon to your router (much like a website) it even has its own tutorial info if you need it. I got the system up and running right away. I did take me a couple hours of reading up on the encryption stuff to get up to speed on that though. Summary: It works great. I highly recommend.
