Not for the novice.  Probably overkill in my house, but no more WIFI issues.  If you go with these, might want to consider a POE Ethernet Hub then you don't need to power the Cisco unit.

Has a pretty picture but I can't seem to master the knack.  Main use was for a 5qt pasta pot but is/was not exactly successful in its function.  Seems the best action is save your money and give better personal attention to the task.  Most inconvenient for stirring and one could actually steam burn themselves in the process. It now hangs on a hook to give others the impression that I have the most modern culinary gadgets.

Unless you are computer proficient - one word on setting this baby up: PONDEROUS

Whoever wrote the manual - English was not their first language (for that matter - neither is the woman who speaks on the DVD).  Hopefully you know your router really well - if not - go dig out the manuals.

I'm giving up until I have an entire afternoon to spend trying to figure this sucker out.  Your best bet is have a tech do it and save yourself aggravation.

As far as the camera itself: very true as others have pointed out: This thing has a huger power cord you have to figure out how to enclose and protect from the elements unless your drilling holes in your walls, in which case - make this thing an annoying weekend project.

More of a novelty. Makes a bit of a mess out of it. Maybe good if you are making a bunch at once for family, but if you just want one or two, it's probably more trouble than the setup and cleanup is worth.

Some good things but too much that I did not need or understand, I needed something more practical.  Guess it would be great for carpenters etc.

Your average Joe may struggle to figure out how to program this. Setup is not very intuitive and makes some assumptions about your home's network setup. For instance, the instructions specified an IP address for the unit, but my router automatically assigned a different one during the setup and configuration. Also, it asks you to connect to a certain website after you connect to the unit during setup, but the unit does not have internet access at that point, so that doesn't make sense.

Not quite user friendly. I've used a  similar device at work.  If I hadn't had experience this would have been worthless. No instructions. Needs to be more powerful.

Really can't say too much about this. It's been too cold outside for me to attempt to install. Looking at the directions it is very complicated. Note that it is recommended to be installed by professionals. Professionals that do this install do not want to install something you bought online. They want to install items they have in stock or would order. I suspect that if I do contact third party to install I will be charged what it would have cost to buy the item through them and install charged. Think twice about buying unless you can do yourself. This is not a typical DIY item. It's still in the box. I'm sure its a good product but installations instructions need to be made better if they continue to sell items like this for anyone to buy.

Some valuable ideas but often the directions are over complicated.  I wouldn't recommend this for a beginner.  And remember you will be making your own patterns.  Again, not a task for a beginner.

You better be more than just "handy" to assemble this set of furniture.  Okay, maybe I was naive, a little too proud of my skill set. Maybe it was too much of an impulsive purchase. Maybe I was encouraged by a pretty price, clean lines and white features. After a month of sitting in my garage I GAVE the whole set away to somebody else- who was also too cocky about their abilities. They then had the mendacity to tell ME that the directions were unclear, there were too many parts and that the quality wasn't that good. So now I have no bedroom furniture so I keep my clothes in a plastic, six bin, tower with casters in my closet.

This highly-rated stuff seems to be highly overrated. I got a 16 oz jar purported to cover 15 sq ft., brushed on as two thin coats. Interesting.

There were no instructions as to thinning, and it was quite thick, so brushing was not even a consideration. I used a 3 inch putty knife, spread it as thin as possible, and used a little more than half the jar covering a 20" x 32" woven rug at about 90% coverage.

It cleans up easily with water, so perhaps I should have thinned it to brush constancy and gotten more coverage, but thinning seemed risky, so I decided to use a drywall taping knife. I can't imagine covering more than 10 sq. ft., if that, with a pint.

Initially the rug was rather non-skid, but a year later, it slides around easily unless you are standing on it, so it seems still to be non-skid, but only when you put weight on it.

DreamPlan Home Design is too difficult to use. Would work for a draftsman, not so much for a self taught Grandma.

I mistakenly thought that because my husband is pretty handy around the house that he could install this for us. Wrong. This is a complex installation, and you will need a plumber so figure that into the cost of the product. Also, just know that you cannot use both the regular shower and the handheld at the same time.  This may seem obvious to some, but for those who don't know how plumbing works, it's a tidbit to know.  Other than the installation, this is pretty good.

WAY more difficult than i anticipated.  I did NOT have the patience to figure out this game.  Sounds like a great idea, but it was over my head and certainly over my 7 year old's head

..THIS WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR THE HOME USER..THIS APPEARS TO BE MORE FOR A CODER

Not for the seasoned cleaner. Many simple explanations that seems common sense but maybe not to one who hasn't scrubbed anything in their lives yet.  Otherwise I did get a few ideas, like lining your fridge shelves with plastic wrap for spill clean-up.

This router, like most available today, is designed to let the typical home computer novice configure and run 'out of the box' with little effort. That's fine, but what I needed was to set this up as an access point only, not as a broadband router - I already have a broadband router on my network. The configuration tries to get you to connect to the internet, create an online account, and configure from there. I simply wanted to assign a static IP, turn off DHCP, and use the LAN ports. I finally got this to work, but then decided I'd try to reconfigure using 'bridged' mode, but nothing I tried would get this to work. I'm an IT professional and know how to configure networks. This was just infuriating. I factory reset a few times, tried different things, but eventually gave up trying to get a repeatable pattern out the unit.

I'm all for 'idiot proofing' consumer gadgets, but a broadband router like this should have an obvious 'manual' or 'expert' mode. I later read lots of similar complaints on various sites, and also learned that Linksys was sold by Cisco to Belkin. Probably explains everything.

It does seem to work well once configured, and have a strong signal. Note that it gets HOT and the power supply is quite high powered.  Don't stuff this unit in an airtight closet ...

UPDATE 7/9/2015 - This unit simply drops connections randomly. I have 'ping plotter' app pinging my default gateway (no internet involved, just local network) and it seems to get high latency every few minutes, and then, goes crazy every few hours and totally drops packets.

Also, I find factory resetting this unit to be an art. It seems like you have to wait 50 seconds for the unit to 'stabilize' before you can press/hold the reset button for 15 seconds, and then you have to wait another 50 seconds for the unit to re-appear on your network. On first power up, it goes into this mode where the light on top is slowly going on/off, gently fading in/out. I think it's waiting for 'wifi protected mode connections' in this period. Factory resetting during this period seems difficult.

I decided to simply give up on it and return it but now I see that it's too late for me to do that with Amazon, so I guess I'm stuck with it. The unit runs VERY hot and I think that's part of the issue. if the exterior plastic is so hot, I can't imagine what the internals are like.  Looks like a very poorly designed unit from an electrical/mechanical perspective, further compromised by bad functionality choices.  I will NEVER buy another Linksys device, nor will I recommend such a device to any client.
