Better than other Bridges 10/22/2008
This review is from: LINKSYS WET54G 54Mbps Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge
Pros:
Works well with other Linksys products. Speed is good. Setup is easy one you get into Setup.
Cons:
I agree with another reviewer in which the setup description is a little incomplete. I wasted a bunch of time on a simple fix had the instructions (or the tech people at Linksys) explained better.
Overall Review:
Still giving it a 4 egg cause it works really well now. Had a Hawking ethernet bridge, and it connected and disconnected randomly and had poor speed. This thing blew it out of the water. I have setup networks and the like before, and this thing was still a pain, but easy if you know a few things going into it. One, if you use the web utility to get to the setup page, the userid and password is admin (lowercase) by default. Two, connect it to your router or switch 1st to set it up from a pc. Three, the the default ip address is 192.168.1.226, so your router (if you use one) needs to be at the default 192.168.1.1 so that you can see it. I change my router IP for a little extra security, and it would not recognize the Bridge until I put it back to the default (and it is a Linksys router). Hope this helps someone.
