Pros: Power over ethernet Cons: Bridge failed during setup, would freeze when powered up and would not permit a reset. (and yes, I held the reset button down for a while) Other Thoughts: This item is overpriced for the features it offers. from Newegg.com Pros: Exceedingly simple to configure. Works well with wep and wpa. from Newegg.com Pros: quick easy set up. works flawlessly with my Linksys router. NewEgg shipped super fast, as usual. from Newegg.com Pros: Power over ethernet Cons: Brain damage to configure especially if you are trying to set up power over ethernet to another device. Other Thoughts: Linksys really should get a move on it because at this stage of wireless there should be a "one" touch connection especially for periphial devices. I heard at Best Buy 70% of in home service calls and an extremely high number of returns are wireless devices. from Newegg.com Pros: 2 minutes out of the box and I was ready to go. I have it connected to a Netgear 10/100 switch and the wireless portion is coming from a Linksys WRTG54. from Newegg.com Pros: Works well with the firmware that it came with (version 1.08). Range is good, it can detect my neighbors' wireless routers. Cons: Device becomes un-configurable if you upgrade to the latest firmware. from Newegg.com Pros: The device does as what it is supposed to. Excellent choice for connecting a small work group to an access point without having to install multiple wireless adapters and print servers. Cons: The firmware out of the box was over a revision old. from Newegg.com It provides an uplink for a switch which then provides access for that building. Cons: Set-up was slightly difficult... First off I was never able to get the set up utility to locate the bridge. When trying to connect to the web utility, i had to switch my routers private IP address (192.168.0.1) to 192.168.1.1 to match the 192.168.1.0 subnet. from Newegg.com I read the negative reviews on this bridge, but bought it anyway, thinking that my years of experience with home networking and with Linksys products would pull me through. Wrong, wrong, WRONG! from Amazon.com Pros: Works as specified. As fast as a wired connection with 4meg DSL Cons: Initial firmware (1.08) was problematic. Updated firmware is fine but you have to get the right one! Other Thoughts: This is new V3.1 hardware. from Newegg.com
