Epinions Lives Down to my Linksys Expectations

by  blankgm,  Jun 17, 2005
Pros: Wireless AP repeater; doesn't require network cabling to be attached; works with WAP54G, WRTG54G, WRT54GS
Cons: Minimum requirements (for AP units) not defined on packaging. Installation still returns critical errors.
The Bottom Line: Recommended if you can place it near your computer (no barriers between unit and computer).
Review: I live in a two story single family home. Nothing fancy. However, my computers have , well, sprawled. Luckily my Linksys WAP54G covers the primary areas of the home where I use my Sony VAIO laptop, Apple Mac G5 and where my wife uses her Apple ...

Pros: Works right out of the box for XP or prior OS.
