Product Description
The Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Broadband Router is really three devices in one package. There's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect to the network without wires. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. The Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. The Access Point built into the Router uses the very latest wireless networking technology. By overlaying the signals of multiple radios, Wireless-N's Multiple In, Multiple Out (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections much farther than standard Wireless-G. Wireless-N can dynamically enable double-speed mode for Wireless-N devices, while still connecting to other wireless devices at their respective fastest speeds. In congested areas, the Good Neighbor mode ensures that the Router checks for other wireless devices in the area before gobbling up the radio band. To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encode all wireless transmissions with industrial-strength 256-bit encryption. It can serve as your network's 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 browser-based configuration utility. The incredible speed of Wireless-N makes it ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video, gaming, and Voice over IP telephony, and gives you plenty of headroom to run multiple media-intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no degradation in performance. With the Linksys Wireless-N Broadband Router at the center of your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player games, and run media-intensive applications at incredi

 Easier to setup and install than expected. January 6, 2009
M. Buhecker (Leetonia, OH USA)
After installing the software on my computers, I plugged in the new Router,rebooted my modem and everything worked on the first try, even my WII console.
It is faster and has more range than my old "G" Router as well as having better security features.
Next thing I will try to setup with my home network is my new HDTV.
Perfect Solution for my Needs - Right Out of the Box January 2, 2009
Phyllis Staff (Dallas, Texas USA)
When my old reliable D-link finally died, I needed a new router quick! This router stood out because it offered newer technology while being compatible with my particular equipment.
I couldn't be happier. Here's my take on this router:
1. Quick and easy install. I plugged this router in, and it worked . . . immediately, flawlessly.
2. No drops. In the weeks I've been using it, I've never lost connectivity.
3. I do not notice any increase in speed; however, this may be a function of my DSL line rather than the router itself.
4. Looks good on my desk. OK, this is merely a matter of preference, but I do like the looks of this sleek, black router much more than the silver and blue box I had before.
I'm no electronics wizard, so if it works for me without having to wait for customer support, I'm a very happy camper. It does, and I am.
Five stars!
