does Facebook Wifi work on this router?

It doesnt really work. I bought it for the fbwifi and its super glitchy and easily bypassable.

What do they mean by updating BIOS. Is this the kind of setup you spend long frustrating hours on? Should I opt for a different brand/model (suggestions?)?

Simple answer - yes it does. It is a gigabit wifi router - it allows throughput via Ethernet at 10/100/100.The wifi set up is easy with a laptop or device (pad or phone) - Linksys has ready made, easy to use apps waiting for dl to guide you through set up.The refurbished one I got arrived in mint, 10 out of 10 condition (prolly was just a return) and works really well.

Not sure, the wifi was so bad that I gave up trying to make it work. I had it 5 feet from my router. :-(

I mean, it worked on mine. Every now and then the router will shut off - the connection is not perfect. But for the most part it does work. I've had it for some time now and like I said, every now and then it shuts off. You get what you pay for I guess. Hope this helps!!

I could be wrong, but if you have any other wi-fi devices running on B or G, you are limited to the fasted device on the router. I just got mine, so I will be setting it up tonight to be sure it works.

I had the same issue with an off brand (tenda) router. The Belkin box could connect with my friends router, and my phones hot spot, but not this one. I ended up getting a new router (linksys) , dual band to take advantage of the belkins speed. Connected up with no problem

Yes. Routers are generic and this router is designed to work with all OS's.

I have a Cisco Linksys wireless router. It works great.. Everyone I know is easily connected when they come to my house with their ipads, etc...

I haven't tried it yet. I'm using the August 2013 firmware. I don't have any problems with the router, but my use is pretty simple.

Yea I believe any router will work with this. Once you connect it to a router by Ethernet cord the wifi should start running after you set it up

I am unaware of possible problem with N routers. Could be that radio wifi receiver only works with B/g but unlikely. Are you sure you are inputting passcode correctly?

Nope. It has built-in WiFi and will connect directly to your router. Works well.

Yes. It has wifi - In fact, it has wireless N - which means it's FAST- all wifi works with all wifi - yes it will work with your current wireless router. We call this in the tech world backwards/forwards compatibility - all wifi works with all wifi (to keep it really simple). I won't go into the differences between B,G, and N because for a non-tech, it doesn't matter. Know that it's good and smile :-). In ADDITION to that, it ALSO has Bluetooth. It's a great computer (I own it)- it will be great for most video games if your son likes to play computer games. In fact, this computer is faster than some so called "gaming computers" I saw advertised. This is like a new Lexus LS400 that will beat an old mustang- it may not say GT on the side but it's fast. Your son will likely love it (if he doesn't want a laptop instead). The Bluetooth will be good for wireless headphones and wireless keyboards and things like that should you want to take advantage that capability. So.. Bluetooth: For wireless keyboards/mice etc, wireless stereo headphones (this is called A2DP). It does other things too but I don't want to add confusion by saying too much. Wifi: connects you to the internet - this one has the faster wifi called 802.11N. It doesn't matter though- it will connect to any router you have- you don't have to go buy a new wireless N router. This computer has both Bluetooth AND wifi which makes it GOOD. The Bluetooth changes nothing about how you will connect to the internet- same as before.

Correct. The configuration is a bit complicated, but it's a fantastic router with great features if you know how to set it up.

As long as you put your router ssid in the config for this device it will work fine. It does not need to be broadcasted.
