We simply plugged it up to replace our old,similar,router. Set a couple internal settings, and it's been running smooth since.

This is a replacement for an earlier version of the same product that I've used
for many years of trouble-free operation. I bought the same product because of
its reliability and performance. It serves our wired devices as well as a
wireless network that sits behind it. Basically it's a Mac network, OS7 through 10.4,
although I do run the odd PC on it now and then. Throughput on this router is
better than the older version (which is moving to a smaller network). It's
easily configured and the log functions allow you to see if others are trying to
access your network.

A Good buy. Very user friendly and works trouble-free so far. The only negative is the unit should have wall mount capability.

Linksys BEFSR81 Cable/dsl Route Ver.3.......2006-12-31

I am very dissapointed with this router. It has slowed down my connection speed to a snails pace. I downloaded the firmware upgrade and changed the propety settings as suggested by linksys but this router still lags. I cannot use it to play online games or logon to my company citrix server without experiencing long delays when communcating. I have a sprint/pcs aircard on my laptop and it has a faster connection speed than this unit! I had a belkin 4 port/wireless router that I was using for 3 years and never had problems like this. The amount of time I wasted and frustration I have experienced trying to get this unit to work properly doesnt make it a deal at any price they are asking. Maybe it works ok for basic email or chatrooms but Good Luck getting it to reliably transfer data at high speed if you rely on your router. I give it 1 star because it did connect to the internet.
