Doing the Job

I have an ethernet home network which is working perfectly. I decided to get a laptop and at first connected it to the network by an ethernet cable. I had been told that in no time at all I would be wanting to go wireless and that turned out to be true.

I researched connection options as I wanted to add the wireless capability to the existing ethernet network and found that something called a wireless access point existed. This seemed to be the right answer as I did not need another router.

All of my network equipment was Linksys so I decided the Linksys WAP54G would be the best way to go. As usual, Amazon had as good a value as anyone on the equipment so I ordered it from Amazon. Once the WAP54G came in it set up and installed without any problems.

I had read a lot of information about wireless security so I followed the Linksys instructions very carefully in selecting the highest level of encryption available for home use. This was not difficult to do but did require that one read the installation alternatives and proceed carefully.

It is now in operation and has not given any problems. It has been interesting to note that there are 6 wireless networks in my area; three of them have no encryption at all, two of them have the lowest level of encryption, and only mine has the highest level. All that says to me is that they were not careful in setting up their security level when they installed the software.

I guess the moral of this story is to carefully read and select the highest level of encryption if you don't want your network to be public.

WAP54G set was easy

I bought this product over three years ago and its rock solid preformance intigated this review. I never review much and look only at the detailed ones as credible. Setup was easiest over the internet but this basically consists of linking it in and entering the IP address 192.167.1.1 and bang I was talking with the router. Security settings are easliy done too and I have 128-bit encryption running seemlessly with three wireless, one hard wired, and obe powerline ethernet connection. I have added my brothers computer by logging into the same IP address. I can't comment on 802.11-N technology but this G router has been awesome for me.
