Pros wired or wireless b/g networks, RCA, optical, and coaxial outputs
Cons forget the setup software, connect directly and use the built-in web interface.
Recommended it? Yes

This works exactly as advertised. I now have my music thumping away on my home theater receiver.

I tried the setup utility that came on the CD, but it kept reporting that my bridge couldn't connect to my wireless network. Plan B was to use the web interface built-in the unit. Just google... Read full review »

Good hardware, crappy software

Pros Good sound - limitations are music file quality and signal strength
Cons Huge deficits in the software, manufacturer will not fix or let you fix
Recommended it? No

First off, setting this thing up on the network was a pretty big hassle, largely because (A) it does not come configured for DHCP by default, and (B) the communication protocol will not talk from one segment to another across a router. I had to remap my network to get the PC on the same segment as... Read full review »

Pros Can't beat the price, easy setup, complete digital-to-digital connection capability.
Cons No support for Mac.
Recommended it? Yes

I just purchased the music bridge, since I moved to a new house and can't hard-wire my computer to my home theater system. My key requirements were that the product connect digitally to my stereo, and have a very good sound quality. I have two wireless access points in my house, so I typically get... Read full review »

Great Solution

Pros Ease of setup, Sound quality, Ease of use
Cons None so far
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this product with some hesitation after reading reviews about it. I'm totally satisfied so far, setup only took about 20 minutes, and i'm not using a linksys router, i have a 2wire DSL router, totally firewalled and had no problem whatsoever. My stereo is about 75 feet from the... Read full review »

Pros lowest price solution,even with range expander, that lets you play music with windows...
Cons difficult to set up if you run firewall software, needs STRONG signal to work consistently
Recommended it? Yes

Well, this has certainly been a maze of sleepless nights and lots of holding the phone and several linksys tech support calls.

The thing works, but here are the issues:
First, make sure the signal is STRONG. I recommend and have myself installed a range expander (I used linksys... Read full review »

Piece of Junk

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros easy setup
Cons doesnt work, hissing sound, too many steps to get it playing then shut it down.
Recommended it? No

I bought this thing bc it looked like it was the best most affordable solution out there. I have since regretted my purchase. It has an easy out of the box setup however, getting it to actually work is a chore in and of itself. When it finally works the product is marginal at best, it tends to skip... Read full review »
