    Duration of ownership: 2 Weeks

    Strengths: Setup wizard is simple and straightforward.

    Weaknesses:Requires firmware upgrade to work properly with Sierra Wireless 595 aircard.

    Overall Evaluation: Initially I couldn't get past step 5 of the installation wizard. Once I installed the firmware upgrade from Sprint's website, I had no problems completing the installation. There are currently 2 computers hardwired to it and a laptop, PSP and Nintendo DS in the house using the 802.11g signal. They all get great throughput - even when they are on the network simultaneously. I highly recommend this product.

    Strengths: Awesome range and very versatile!

    Weaknesses:Most definately the price!

    Overall Evaluation: This router is the best investment I've made yet! I am relocating to an area where there is NO broadband access (cable, DSL, etc.) other than EVDO and this little router has solved my entire home networking needs! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone! I use the router with the V PC5750 AirCard and have not experienced any issues! The ease of setup, size, range, all are GREAT! Granted the price is the ONLY drawback but it was worth it!

    Strengths: Good range

    Weaknesses:PRICE!!!

    Overall Evaluation: The Linksys Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect both Wireless-G (802.11g at 54Mbps) and Wireless-B (802.11b at 11Mbps) devices to the network. Second, it's a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Connect four PCs directly or attach more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. Thirdly, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a Mobile Broadband Internet connection. You can also use a standard Ethernet attached Internet connection, like a cable or DSL modem, if available.Once your computers are connected to the Router and the Internet, they can communicate with each other too, sharing document files, a printer, storage space, and other resources.To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband can encode all wireless LAN transmissions securely with WEP or WPA Personal encryption. The Router can serve as a DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, and supports VPN pass-through. Configuration is a snap with the web-based configuration utility.With the Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband, you can create a secure wireless network with Internet connectivity, anywhere that Mobile Broadband Internet service is available.

    Strengths: Wait till you use it

    Weaknesses:Price

    Overall Evaluation: Excellent router though price was the downside. The broadband card simply slides in on one of the sides and once you install the included drivers, you're good to go!
