Advantages: Very fast speeds especially with streaming video Disadvantages: wireless technology used is still being worked on
My office has been begging for wi-fi to be setup for the longest time and the answer was always 'it's not secure'. Well, finally our networking guy found something that offers enough security that he feels comfortable in providing the office with wi-fi networking! This wireless router is not only sleek looking but it does it's part in keeping us secure from those hackers out there.
The speed from this wireless router is impeccable. It states that ... ...6 times further distance wi-fi access than 802.11g. The data transfer rate is 300 Mbps. Awesome coverage considering our office is not that small and I have yet to find a nook or office which doesn't have good reception. I'm in the IT field and in such I work with large files, streaming videos and other high resource files. I've yet to have anything to even come close to challenging the reception of this wireless router. To say the least, I'm impressed.

The Linksys Wireless-G Cable Gateway WCG200 - Wireless Router comes as one of the most recommended routers in the market. Of course, that is my opinion, and I just totally made that up, but still, it is the best. If it is just getting on the internet with more than one computer, playing pc-to-pc head-to-head games, sharing files between two computers, networking your computers, printers, and phones together, then Linksys is your router. If your looking ... ...future of wireless capabilities, then Linksys is your next step. Become completely in control, when you can have as many computers in your home all on the internet simultaneously, and all without the hassle of wires.

Advantages: Good bit Disadvantages: finicky about angles
...your computer. However, with the D-Link Xtreme N PCI Express Desktop Adapter, It's gonna be a bit tricky to actually get the connection. This wireless card is super finicky about angles, which is sometimes hard to determine, considering where the connection is coming from. But once you find the angle you need, it gives a great connection, usually pretty fast. This card is actually pretty easy; Remove the side panel of your computer, along with the ... ...unplugged! I cannot stress this enough! Also make sure to discharge all static on you and the card by touching something metal before installing. Then you plug it in, with the antennae out of the computer. It's way easier than it seems, I swear. Overall, other'n the card being finicky about angles, it's a great card, i definitely reccommend it. ...

Advantages: thin, look Disadvantages: couldn't get set up, difficult for me
I went to purchase this router for my computer since I have two of them. I bought it at Best Buy for 70.00 and something. The look was nice when I took it out of the box. But I had a hard time trying to get it installed. I even called for some assistance and they could not even help me. Which was very upsetting. It was a very great value. The lights showed up but one and I could not get it to go online at all. Even Best Buy had recommended this router ...

Advantages: Easy to setup, can connect four computers at once Disadvantages: When I first got it, it disconnected me a lot
I picked this wireless router over many others and for the most part I would say that I was satisfied, but when I first got it, it disconnected me a lot, but over time it has gotten better and now, after about a year of having it, i don't get disconnected too often. Also, i was very pleased that with it came easy to follow directions and I had it set up and ready to go in no time. And the fact that it can connect four computers to the internet at ...
