    Duration of ownership: 6 Months

    Strengths: Easy to install, good speed

    Weaknesses:loses connectivity after 6 months

    Overall Evaluation: I bought my router in May. Up until about two weeks ago, I had no problem. Then, I lost my connection. I disconnected my ethernet-connected computer directly to the modem and my internet was perfect. The problem is that my primary computer is the one that connects to the internet wirelessly. So, I called Linksys, reset the router updated some settings. Then, Sunday night I lost my connection again. This time, the computer was able to pick up the network but not the internet. So now, the wireless computer isn't wireless and I don't know if I even want a replacement.

    Duration of ownership: 2 Days

    Strengths: Connects much faster

    Weaknesses:none

    Overall Evaluation: I upgraded from a Linksys 802.11b because it was too slow with the new "Vista" and it could no longer be updated. I purchased this WRT54G2 and it does everything it claims.I am very pleased with its speed and its distance it sends signal.This router transmits a signal through five walls and it shows a 54 mbps signal at the desktop pc that is almost two hundred feet from the router.It also has a security feature that was easy to set up.

    Duration of ownership: 1 Months

    Strengths: Easy to set up, range is acceptable in this home, and it looks futuristic and cool

    Weaknesses:The unit takes up precious desk space

    Overall Evaluation: I replaced a friend's old Wireless-G Router/Switch/Access Point by SMC. This worked so much better than his older unit. For his use...he gets acceptable speed and distance in his home. GOOD JOB LINKSYS!

    Strengths: Easy to set up, great range and looks good

    Weaknesses:None

    Overall Evaluation: I upgraded from a Trendnet after being frustrated with it for a month and difference was amazing. The linksys set up was great and works flawlessly.Also I hear you can customize a lot of the firmware but have not tried it yet.

    Strengths: Works very well.

    Weaknesses:I'm not very knowledgeable in the computer area, so it took me a while to get my settings right.

    Overall Evaluation: It's great not to be connected to the desk. I'm still not quite sure if my security settings are correct, and I've yet to figure out how to print wirelessly...but those are operator issues, I suspect! Overall, I love it and would recommend this router to others.
