Rating:  - Linksys Router
Easy to setup and have your home or business network up and running in just a few minutes by just following the simple setup instructions. I have found the product very reliable.
Rating:  - Disappointed
I had bought the Linksys BEFSR81 8 port router to replace my aging 4 port Dlink DI-704P router + additional 4 port switch. I had previously installed a Linksys wireless bridge without any problems, and was quite pleased with its operation. So I thought the Linksys router would be the same situation. I was soon proven wrong.
The DSL WAN connection worked right out of the box, no problem. This is usually the tricky part, but turned out to be quite easy to set-up. When I checked all of ... Read More
Rating: - Stopped working after few hours
I purchased my first Linksys router (exactly the same model) in 2001. It was working without problems until December 2007. Long enough. Having good opinion about the product, I purchased again the same model. Mistake - it must be manufactured by different company. Front panel different, with less information LEDs, but I don't care. Setup was OK. Then... After about 6 hours it started resetting itself, there were permanent losses of conenctivity, I had to reboot router every few hours, internet phone ... Read More
Rating:  - This Used to be a Good Router
I purchased an earlier version of this router (it is currently v. 3.1) and had many years of perfectly reliable good use, until a lightning strike blew out several ports. I ordered another one, confident it was a good product. Big mistake. Just from looking at it you can tell it has been downgraded - 1 activity light per port where there used to be 3. It is unable to maintain a consistent connection with my Time-Warner cable modem. I've had the cable modem swapped out twice and tried three different ... Read More
Rating: - Don't Upgrade Firmware
Router worked fine until I had to upgrade. Followed instructions, yet upgrade did not take. Worse yet, it is no longer usable. Linksys tech support won't do anything for you even though their firmware upgrade rendered the device useless.
