Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Cisco-Linksys Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming Adapter
Customer Review: Fantastic product, works out of the box, set up in 5 minutes using WPA manual config
Summary: 5 Stars
I was afraid that the Lynksys would not be compatible with my netgear wireless router. After 5 easy minutes of set up on the disaster that is Windows Vista, it works perfectly.
Pros
- easy to use manual configuration. simply enter WPA key and you are set to go
- very fast and simple set up
- compatible with netgear rangemax
- compatible with playstation 2
- no dropped connections, good range
- small footprint, simply design blends well with entertainment centers
- ac adapter is nice and small works great on surge protectors
cons
- only 1 color to chose
- green lights are very bright
- possible old firmware models still being sold?
- misleading instructions for WPA using "push button" features that do not exist on a lot of routers, you must "skip" a step to do manual config. That is inaccurate directions since you are not "skipping" anything, you are simply doing manual config instead of linksys "push button"
Even better I set this up on my PC, unplugged it, brought it downstairs and there was no reboot of the PC required, no reboot of the router required, no reboot of cable modem required.
I really don't understand what people are complaining about, this was easier to set up than a wireless router, easier than the netgear wall plugs
I have been using this to dual box EQOA running PS2 via wireless N, and PS3 on the built in wireless. Very few problems other than the PS3 randomly crashing, which is likely related to the PS3's latest firmware and not this wireless N unit.
This is the first "wireless bridge" I have used that did not require endless reboots of all equipment involved.
My only regret is not buying this unit sooner and avoiding the other hyped up units like the netgear wall plugs, which IMO were terrible.
Description of Cisco-Linksys Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming Adapter
The Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming Adapter gives wireless connection capabilities to any wired Ethernet-equipped game console. The Game Adapter can be used in several different ways. If you have an existing home wireless network and a cable or DSL Internet connection, the Game Adapter lets your Xbox, Xbox 360, PlayStation2 or 3, or GameCube attach to the network so you can get into online games without running wires to the game room. Or, use a pair of Game Adapters to form a "cable-less cable" between two game consoles for head-to-head gaming -- in the same room, or all the way across the house. There is also a special "Wireless LAN Party" mode to connect several consoles at once.Digital Cameras and Photo Categories
