Customer Review: Linksys OGV200 - Easy as Pie
Summary: 5 Stars
The Linksys OGV200 is a network optimizer for gaming and VoIP. I'm not a gamer so I can't speak to that, but I am a heavy user of Skype and hated the intermitent drop-outs that always seemed to occur at an important point in the conversation. I no longer have to worry about that with the OGV200. I can use Skype, download and surf the web all at the same time with no loss of voice quality. It has made Skype perform as well as a landline - actually better!
The real issue to me was that I did not want to re-do my wireless network configuration to take advantage of a newer router that had QoS for VoIP built into it. Although it seems simple to replace your wireless router the last time I did that, I went through three different routers before I found one that worked reliably with good reception and fast throughput.
This device simply plugs into power and is placed in between your router and modem. Setup is all of a minute or so and you're off and running. I've run it for about a month now - no problems at all. One thing I have noticed is that the device gets fairly warm - it would be smart to put it someplace where it can get good ventilation - and say not laying on a carpet behind a desk.
Description of Linksys Network Optimizer for Gaming and VoIP
The SPA400 features the ability to connect up to four (4) standard analog telephones lines to a Linksys Voice System (LVS) VoIP network and includes the additional benefit of an integrated voicemail application. The SPA400 utilizes multiple analog phone lines and automatically routes calls to and from your existing PSTN telephone service. Designed to be implemented with the LVS IP Telephony System, the SPA400 enables cost-conscience business users to leverage the high value features generally found only on more expensive PBX equipment. The SPA400 also includes an integrated voicemail application supporting up to 32 voicemail accounts or boxes with customized greetings, providing LVS users the ability to receive and playback voicemail messages from their Linksys IP Phones. The SPA400 supports four (4) RJ-11 FXO ports to connect to the PSTN and also includes one 10/100 BaseT RJ-45 Ethernet interface that is used to connect to the local IP network. Compact in design, the SPA400 is perfectly suited for a small business in providing reliable operation for both VoIP and PSTN voice communication service.Digital Cameras and Photo Categories
