Infant product.....if you can make it work it works very well

bysuemccartin Feb 14, 2008
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros DUAL BAND N standard support, no drivers, works on any gaming system and pcs
Cons Infant product, needs lots of work yet, few firmware updates.
Recommended it? No

The picture epinions has for this gadget is incorrect. It's also classified as a "gaming adapter." Linksys aims this product at gaming systems such as the xbox, xbox360, wii, ps3 etc., but in truth this is a very diverse little toy that not only works on gaming systems you can use this for many...

one to avoid

byvishneda Feb 10, 2008
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros technical support is actually very technical
Cons did not work as advertised; did not support WPA in my case
Recommended it? No

My experience with this product was very negative. It was difficult to work with and understand out of the box. The instructions were simple, but the simple case did not work correctly on my Vista machine. I had to go into the CD and find the "advanced" section of the setup document and work...

Pros Easy set up in most cases. Made well. Highly reviewed.
Cons Not an easy set up in my case. Costs more.
Recommended it? Yes

I will admit that I do not speak computer ... when I moved my office a few rooms over, I did not feel like snaking cables in order to move my cable modem/router (see review for the Motorola unit I bought) so I did a google search to figure out what I needed. Apparently, I could install a wireless... Read full review »

Linksys leads the pack again

bythegsrguy Dec 2, 2010
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Dual-band N support, 64-bit drivers, stylish appearance, affordable
Cons Didn't cook me dinner last night.
Recommended it? Yes

Although I'm confused why Linksys is now "Cisco Linksys" (muddying up a respected consumer electronics brand name), they're still leading the pack with their home networking gear. The AE1000 is an 802.11bgn USB adapter that really offers stellar performance for a great price.

When my 7-year... Read full review »
