    5.0 out of 5 stars Best Wireless AP Ever!, 20 Jun 2002
    By A Customer
    After trying many other manufacturer's products for my company, I decided to test the Linksys solution - as recommended by a friend in the US.

    This has got to have the easiest set-up around - you plug it in, type the address in Internet Explorer and give the network a name! It's that simple! The throughput is also great and it looks good too. It's unreal that some manufacturers charge over double this price and the product doesn't perform as good.

    I also tried their PCMCIA card and found the range on this to be better than anything else I've tried (Cisco, Compaq, Zoom, Netgear)and it also managed to pip Cisco on a throughput test.

    If you want a wireless network - definitely go for this!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Works pefectly, 7 Oct 2003
    By Master Td Chambers "Tom Chambers" (Derby UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    If anyone was looking for a wireless network this would be something I'd reccomend for them. I use it so I can take my laptop around the house without having to plug cables in everywhere I go. It does get a little slow at times, but if you are looking for a speedy connection at all times then wires are best. But if it's freedom to move you want then the Lynksis is very useful.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Information you find out after you buy an item, 9 May 2004
    With a desktop PC hooked up to a Wireless Access Point Router with a 4 point switch, I bought a Linksys PCMCIA card for my laptop. With modern laptops running hotter, I found the PCMCIA card cooked, and my laptop would crash and reboot itself. I found I could only use the PCMCIA Card for 30 mins, before taking it out and cooling it against a window pane. I tried the USB device, and this did not pick up the signals at all well between the walls and floors.

    I thought that using a WAP11 in another part of the house, I could use a crossover network cable between the WAP11 and the laptop, and that my problems were over.

    I found to my cost, after calls to the Linksys Helpdesk, that this will not work either. You need two WAP11 devices and the Wireless Access Point Router. So I bought a second WAP11 and thought I had finally achieved my goal.

    Next problem, was that one of the WAP11's was version 2.2 and the other was version 2.6. You need to know which version you are getting when you buy this item. Version 2.2 will never operate in Wireless repeater mode and has no firmware upgrade to provide this mode.

    At the time of writing, this crucial version information for the WAP11 you are buying, is not shown in the technical section of the Amazon website. You would only find out the version after the item was delivered. In addition the WAP11 version 2.6 needs a firmware upgrade to v1.07 to get the Wireless repeater mode. It wont work out of the box until you do this.

    So I finally achieved my goal, but I now have a LINKSYS USB device, a PCMCIA device and a WAP11 version 2.2 device to sell on eBay.

    You will not not find the information you need before you buy on the manufacturer's, nor supplier's website.

    In summary, you should contact the supplier's helpdesk first, pay to speak to a human, and ignore all the website support information which is often out of date, misleading and wrong.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Generally buggy - a popular choice for no good reason
    I can't stress how much stress (!) this device has caused. It seems that it's going to do the job properly and then insidious problems creep in that get worse and worse until... Read more

    4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to install - range not bad
    Got full coverage over my apartment combined with the WPC54G pcmcia card. Drops to 60% when on my balcony - going thru concrete floor and plaster wall.

    Overall, very satisfied !
