Linksys WRT54G2 Wireless-G Broadband Router
The Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router is three devices in one. The Wireless Access Point lets you connect both Wireless-G (802.11g at 54Mbps) and Wireless-B (802.11b at 11Mbps) devices to the network. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Connect four PCs directly, or attach more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. The Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. All your computers can print on a shared printer connected anywhere in the house. Your computers can share all kinds of music, digital picture, and document files. The Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature makes it easy to configure your wireless devices. Just push the button on the Router and on your other Wi-Fi Protected Setup enabled wireless device to automatically create a WPA2 connection that protects your data and privacy with up to 256-bit industrial-strength encryption. The Router can serve as a DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, supports VPN pass-through, and can be configured to filter internal users' access to the Internet. Advanced configuration is a snap with the web-browser-based interface.

Linksys WRT54G2 Wireless-G Broadband Router Reviews
The firewall in the router has not caused any problems with any of my other programs. I have had bad luck with wireless routers. Overall I am very happy with the router, knock on wood :) Being stubborn it was time to try again so I purchised the WRT54G2. The setup was very easy and so far not one problem with the router. I have not had to reset it once, which was a big problem for me with Linksys wireless model this new model is replacing.
Beyond that I have no experience. This was very inexpensive and low-profile, so it's a great router for "the parents".
Wireless is way cool.so get wireless and be happy. I just plugged it in and I have a 99% signal strength all the time. This product works excellent. If you have just a laptop like me don't bother with the software.works great with my HP printer as well. I didn't install the software. Paul,IN
I had a bad experience with this product, I hope you do not, but just know that if you plan on doing advance settings you may have problems. After resetting to factory defaults it still stopped working. I have clearwire, and I only get a strong signal in one area of the house, so I figured getting a wireless router was a no brainer. After spending about 4 hours trying to set it up, the linksys router login page reset over and over, and the internet wouldn't work for more than 11 seconds.
I replaced my previous Belkin with this Linksys WRT54G2, indeed, strong signal and stability I would say.
