 Fantastic! Better than linksys! January 28, 2005

I got this router for my classroom at school. Set up was a piece of cake on my macs running 10.3. Up and running on the internet in less than 5 minutes!
Super fast speed!
This replaced a linksys router running wireless g, and the speed on the connection has doubled! Downloading pages, and email has increased in speed conseiderably. I was amazed!
Highly recommend.
Works fine for me, and you can't beat the price! December 10, 2005

Don't be fooled by the negative reviews. As long as you follow the very simple instructions, there's nothing to the installation, and it works fine. One of the reviews commented on the difficulty in setting up WEP or WPA security. Nonsense! All you need to do is take two minutes to read the relevant chapter in the very detailed electronic manual, in Adobe Acrobat format on the CD-ROM installation disk. You have to access the router settings via Internet Explorer, and if you use WEP, you generate a passcode and then set the same code on your other computers. If you've never done that before, it may seem a little frustrating, but the fault lies not with Belkin but rather with Microsoft's Windows XP. So long as you know how to configure a wireless networking adapter on Windows XP, the Belkin components -- routers or adapters -- perform flawlessly. As a budget minded consumer, I'm thankful that Belkin makes such competitively priced networking products.
Works great - even at far distance December 19, 2005

I just bought this item and it seems to work great. I have one computer connected over wire and two wireless. Both work great. The wireless works at further distances than the linksys I owned and just dumped. Setup was easy (except that the default SSID described in the manual isn't the same one that was configured - but this was easy to figure out). I have 64bit WEP enabled and have no problems. I also like that it has the parental control feature (although I have not yet tested that).
Uses same chipset as more expensive Linksys and Apple November 8, 2004

The Belkin uses the Broadcom wireless chipset, the same as Linksys, Apple, HP / Compaq, and many others, yet it costs far less. It's also got good parental control features that are free for the first six months. I got one for under $30 with free shipping and no rebate.

i have used dlink, netgear and the linksys but belkin tops them all. its simply PnP. no need to do all of the setup unless you really want to. dlink was good but their customer service was as bad as one can imagine. belkin got lifetime warranty and life time customer support. i had it installed in my basment and i was able to get a "good" or "very good" signal in my bedroom on the second floor.
