Linksys Wireless-G Range Expander: After Some Set Up Help, It's All Good

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: It doesn't work right out of the box, but after some help from customer service, it worked exactly as designed.
Review: I recently bought a new iMac for myself and gave the old iMac to the kids. I got them a computer desk and moved the iMac into the room, except there was one major problem. There was no wireless signal in their room. Oddly enough, I could take my...

Lives Down to my Linksys Expectations

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2005
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...

Bad news abut the WRE54G

Date of Review:  Mar 26, 2007
The Bottom Line: Don't buy this unit.
Review: Tried for over three hours and many attempts and re-attempts but could not get this repeater set up. Before each re-attempt, I reset the unit and started over. Each effort failed and although the unit's lights indicated complete set up, it prevented...

Instructions for setting up the WRE54G

Date of Review:  Sep 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: excellent connection to my internet and I can carry the unit and laptop to another room and have the same excellent connection
Review: I had a problem figuring out what Mac address to use in the setup for unit. So I put in till I got the right one and the blue light stayed on when I saved the settings.
Next, when all finished and you have the unit programmed you have to go...

Not Compatible with Vista

Date of Review:  Feb 12, 2007
Review: I've had my Extender for about 2 years now for a notebook computer running windows XP. I took advantage of a notebook sale and later discovered Vista can only detect the Main router signal and not my extender. The linksys site shows what components...

Don't expect 54mbps from the WRE54G

Date of Review:  May 16, 2006
Review: I bought a WRT54GSv4 router, which gave very good coverage to the far end of my house. But thinking I would like to boost the signal, I lashed out for a WRE54G range expander.

Afer a couple of hours of checking firmware versions, turning...

WATCH OUT

Date of Review:  Jul 20, 2005
Review: Read the fine print. Not compatible with many Linksys models. I bought min at CompUSA and the store guy and I even thought we had checked compatibility. Turns out we were off by a single letter.

not ready for release

Date of Review:  Jul 25, 2005
Review: this RE is barely at alpha.
Cisco ought to use some of its router technology in the LinkSys stuff now that they own them. If not, LinkSys may turn out to be a money pit.

This RE simply is not ready for release.
Too many things...
