Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router

Linksys - WRT310NRelease Date: Jan 2008

The Wireless-N Gigabit Router is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect to the network without wires.

Strengths: None

Weaknesses: Slow speed. Setup was easy but using 192.168.1.1 would be faster. Single band antenna. Short antenna range.

Summary: Returned this product after 2 days. Setup was easy but too many limiting features and slow speed. Bought 1GB cards for faster computer to computer file transfer but small speed gain was not worth the expense. Small profile lays flat taking up too muck desk space. XBOX play was limited, TIVO connection signal was poor 7% at 30 feet and 1 inside wood frame wall. Wireless internet was slow compared to SRX400. I cannot recommend this product!

Strengths: Magnificent Range.Pretty straight forward to set up.Secure remote administration over the internet.

Weaknesses: Form Factor.

Summary: I installed the router in a commercial building of 60 ft by 165 feet. I then went around the building with my laptop using a wireless G card. Signal strength was more than adequate on all three floors except for one small remote area. This building has a brick wall across the middle of it!It is easy to set up. Just log on to the url and go through the menus to set the settings.The product was not designed for space efficiency. You cannot stand it up on end unless you sandwich it between bookends. It's just going to sit where you put it and take up a bunch of space.I almost didn't buy this product. I called presales support to find out if I could use one of these as an access point, only, and attach it to another one configured as an access point and router. The support person told me I could, but that Linksys wouldn't tell me how unless I paid a technical support fee. This was a higher level of support than was standard. That was a bit off-putting. After finding the very simple answer on the internet it seems to me this capability could have been included in the manual. They might sell more routers.

Strengths: Easy set up sort of

Weaknesses: Placement crucial

Summary: Style different looking but beauty is in the eye.... Opened box read instructions put disc in drive got to step 4 0r 5 (plug in Power), stopped re-tried stopped. Call tech support on hold about 10 min. Tech walked me through within 3-5 min. Powered on my notebook about 50 feet away signal fair. Turned router about 2", signal went to perfect. Who knows these modern marvels!
