Linksys WPS54G Print Server

Pros: If you're an IT, every thing works well with a bit of patience.

Cons: Average person will have a hard time with the unit.

The Bottom Line: I wouldn't recommend this unit to anyone unless you have IT knowledge. Stick with Netgear, Belkin, or built-in print server wireless router.

Review: Printer server had been the pinnacle of networked printing, but the WPS54G Print Server is a falling point of any networked-wireless printing.

The layout:
Linksys DSL Router
Linksys WAP54GX for wireless broadcast/receive
...

Pros: you can telnet in!

Cons: small, well packaged.

The Bottom Line: dont bother, linksys continues to put out low grade products without QA.

Review: If you have Minolta Printer - dont bother with this device, it will not work based on tech support comment "... it is not compatible..." - I just wish they would have put it on the box in big bold letters.

As with all other linksys...

Pros: Looks nice, nice product-idea

Cons: Flawed implementation. Runs VERY hot! Not worth the bother.

The Bottom Line: Try something else - Leave this one in the store.

Review: I'll preface this by stating that I *am* an IT professional who works in VERY large corporate environments. There's not much I HAVEN'T seen in my carreer. And lest Cisco imagine me to be in a branch of IT that doesn't include the 'right sort of...

Pros: None, except its not very heavy to carry back to the store for a refund

Cons: Had better luck wireless printing to an empty Wheaties box

The Bottom Line: Professional installation should be recommended for non-tech people -- can't yet speak to the function after installation

Review: This is more of a caution than a review of the product, or perhaps it can be considered a review of the customer service and documentation for the product.

I was hoping that some of the negative review issues I had read on other sites...

Pros: Wireless connection was easy to set up for a 128bit WEP key. Very small size.

Cons: unstable and got hot to the touch when running.

Review: It looks like the previous person got this right on the nose. This one is absolute trash, so stay away. Not knowing any better, I picked this up without doing a search for ratings of it and I was very sorry.

I got the wireless working...

Pros: Small footprint, good looks, wireless. Good WWW Community support, not Linksys.

Cons: Setup leaves you hanging & Didn't cover my setup. The simplist setup isn't detailed.

The Bottom Line: Recommended (so far)! Once you get past the setup,or have someone experienced with this unit do it for you, it's a great little device.

Review: For those that had the same problem, where it works great as long as it's wired.... then loses it when goin Wireless..

Here's what worked for me after many hours of trial 'n error.

First, like the other reviewers mentioned, the...

Pros: compact, "cisco", works perfectly for 1 hour for ever 4 hours spent getting it to.

Cons: repeadedly fails after some time. velcro glue fails even faster.

Review: baught it to replace an old laptop that was slowly dying to run a new HP LaserJet 1018. Initially it would NOT work. after 2 hours on the phone with some outsourced lady it STILL wouldn't print. eventually got it to work by randomly fiddling with...

Pros: wireless printing, high speed, usb2 supported

Cons: hard to setup, no WAP, BAD SUPPORT FROM LINKSYS

Review: Hard to setup (thanks to my +12 years in IT) i was able to setup a couple for a client after trick the installation. not recommended.

Pros: I can't think of any.

Cons: Does not work for more than a few hours.

Review: I wish I would have read the reviews before purchasing. I have a house full of Linksys equipment including a Linksys wireless router. To cut right to the quick, this print server can not hold the wireless signal for more than 1 day. Once the...

Pros: seems to work fine as long as it's wired to the network

Cons: doesn't work with Linksys wireless security (WPA or WEP) turned on

Review: I bought this at Fry's and spent about 8 hours trying to get it to work. I tried every workaround i could think of and found that it will work when wired to the router or when wireless security is turned off. however it does not work once WPA or WEP...
