I trust the Linksys brand above all other except for the commercial brands

I ordered this item because of the Dual Band feature.  I can use 1 band for MY use and the other band I have password protected for my guests to use.  I was able to setup this router in just a couple of minutes.  I like and trust the Linksys brand above all other except for the commercial brands that I will not advertise here.  The item arrive 2 days earlier than expected and packaged properly for in transit protection.  If I needed another now I would buy this model again.

I have now had to send back three of these routers. Out of nowhere, the WAN quits working and no internet. I have called tech support which was a pleasure, because they were very nice and tried to help, but after no one could figure out why the WAN died, they sent me another one and then another one and now if I do get one more, I'll be selling it. I am tired of sending these back, paying for shipping and then receiving another one, only to have it fail as well. Compared to my other routers, this one blows them away with the power that it has. However, I can't trade off that for how much more reliable my other routers are, compared to the bountiful. If they can fix the WAN issue, I'll be the first to buy them once again. Until that time, my four year old Linksys will keep the internet going fo us.

After much research, I purchased this Belkin Wireless N+ to replace my failing Linksys WRT54G.  I have 2 desktops, 2 laptops,2 pda phones, a PS3 and soon to be XBOX360 in my wireless network.  A replacement router has to be flexible enough to handle my needs.

After a month of operation I have had no issues.  Connectivity to all my devices have been consistent if not better than what my previous router provided.  The setup is easy fairly easy.  The router is setup in one corner of an 1800sqft one story home and a pc on the opposite corner is now able to receive consistent connection with no drops.  My son noted that his laptop is receiving better connection when surfing the net browsing through sites such as youtube. My pc's are still using g band connectivity and will be upgraded as the need arises.

UPDATE TO REVIEW 1-15-09 (I WOULD RETRACT THE 5 STARS IF POSSIBLE)

Router was bought in Nov '08.  Sony PS3 and PDA phone was unable to connect.  Currently have 4 pc's (2 are hooked up wireless and 2 are hardwire connected) on the network and all of them are getting dropped from internet access randomly.

Belkin product support could not troubleshoot issue and recommended replacement.  However, Belkin Customer Support (if you can call it that)is hard to contact and does not follow through on your open ticket.  They do not send email regarding any replacement status.  Email to customer support does not exist on their website.  At the time of this update, Belkin does not have stock to replace it this router and hasn't had any for 2 weeks. They do not have an estimate of when they will receive any.  This strikes me as odd.  There is plenty to sell to vendors, but none available for warranty replacement cases.  BUYER BEWARE. Luckily, I still have time to return this since it was an X-mas present.

I previously owned a Linksys WRT54G for years before it died.  I will find another Linksys product to replace it.

I am becoming a big fan of Linksys products.  I had my cable modem installed 2 weeks ago and have not had any problems with the modem.  All the technician did when he installed the modem was to plug it in and call the MAC address in.  It could not have been easier
There are reports of issues with Windows XP and this modem.  I would be willing to bet that the people that are experencing the issues are using the USB interface, since I have not had any issues while using the LAN interface.  Actually I have the modem connected to my Linksys Wireless router / switch.
The bottom line.  If you plan on using the USB interface and Windows XP, I would check the Linksys website to see if they have new drivers to correct the issues.  Otherwise, I would recomend this modem to anyone.

I purchased this router on Clearance at Walmart for $69. I have had ZERO issues with it. I do however agree that it lacks major features for the price and type of router. If Belkin has taken over Linksys, that would explain why.

I had always used *brand name* antivirus until they got so out-of-hand with their pricing, and wanted me to re-up way ahead of schedule for big price increases.  The local ISP had provided Panda for their subscribers, and when we tried it at work it seemed to function just as well as the "big name" products.  So, when I had to get something new, I gave it a whirl here at home, 3-device product protection - and it's been working fine for several months without any viral issues or other security breaches.

I've removed my failing TP-LINK TL-ER6020, and put this UTT AC750GW back into service. I'm changing my
review of this product. Now that I've had another brand to compare for months of service. UTT makes a very
solid product. The load balancing feature for my (2) DSL connections is a breeze to setup compared to the
TP-LINK, and the balancing is closer to 50/50. You won't find a better Dual-WAN router "with" wireless for this
price.

Mikrotik routers rock, simply the best brand out there, this router is made for the techie kind of person. Wireless signal strenght outperforms Cisco in every way

I use these all the time for pro-AV installs; especially when using Verizon FIOS Quantum and MoCA applications. I don't trust anything else.

As an owner of a computer company & a ton of experience with routers of all ages here is the FLAT LINE with this product.  If your not ready to convert all of your wireless products over to Linksys, then stay clear of this product.  It works fine with the newer Linksys network adapters but, if your using anything of any age at all or dose not retain the Linksys brand name it will give you trouble.  I have switched most every customer that has purchased this router (& all newer linksys products) over to another brand names. (Mainly D-Link for most american homes & small businesses) Linksys is living off of there business class products which are vary good in most cases.  I have yet to find a wireless product from Linksys that did not cause head aches for most all of its users!!  GOOD LUCK!!

I'm never buying from Linksys again.  My friend and I both had the WRT54GX4, and both of our routers stopped working after some storms we have in our area.  Mind you, just the wireless stopped working.  A direct line to it is fine.  Seems Linksys didn't make this product very well as it is sensitive to power surges.  And yes, both of us use decent surge protectors.

I've used Linksys for years - this is my first Cisco/Linksys. For whatever reason my signal was unstable using WPA2. It was affecting not only my wireless devices, but also my desktop cabled from router. Had to change back to WEP - all is well. Really understanding Wifi and routers is an art that not many can pull off. LOL

I have owned half a dozen wireless routers and access points.  In my 3500 square foot 25 year old ranch home none gave 100% coverage.  I had some such as a DLink that came close to 100% coverage but none that really kept a solid connection.  Tried the ParkerVision and it is pretty stunning.  No dead spots, no dropping of the signal, nice steady signal.  The bad side is that they are exiting the consumer market.  I am using it with a Dell Inspiron 9100 with a built in wireless 1450 card.  Shame that the company did not continue on.

I am using a set of 7 LInksys PLA200's to provide very high speed internet service to 6 apartments in an old building in San Francisco.  LInksys sells individual units as PLA200's and the kit of two is sold as a PLK200.  The individual units are identical.  The Linksys units synch up quickly and operate effectively over a wider range of outlets than the competing products I tried.  Wireless equipment, including the new N series and high gain antennas, were ineffective at providing service to all apartments.

i always buy the brand name - may cost more, but never have problems with it (and in the long run, it's worth it)

I love TP-Link products. This functions as well as the "name brands". TP-Link "is" the name brand in my opinion. Great router.

I almost bought one of these 8 years ago, but bought a cheaper Linksys model instead.  Big mistake.

They are still selling the WRT54G (now WRT54GL) because they are extremely reliable, even though they are not "N" type.  Previously, I've owned other Linksys,Netgear and US Robotics routers.

Got tired of rebooting routers and tinkering with the settings to get new devices connected, so I bought the WRT54GL.  What a difference!  I've been running it for a month, and not only does it connect with devices without a fight, it keeps them on and connects faster than any other router I have ever owned.

If you need more features than is offered out of the box, you can flash it with open source software from DD-WRT.

However, please note that this does not use the newest Wi-Fi standard, but if you're not running multiple video streams or a dozen PC's/Tablets off it, then it should be OK for most users.  If you want reliability, this is it!
