Pros: When you *finally* get it to work, it works, albeit only supports WEP encryption.

Summary: This is what hurts. The CD-ROM and the instructions both suck, and are totally wrong. The worst is that, once you figure it out, this is the easiest thing on earth to set up. All you have to do is to plug it into an ethernet port, push the "autosetup" button, and it reads all the encryption data it needs from your router! Presto, you're up and running, in 2 minutes...not the 4 hours it took me.
Bottom line: it works well, albeit only supporting WEP encryption, is easy to install provided you follow my instructions, and you probably can pick them up for cheap as millions are dissatisfied with the item.

- Description: Expand the range of your wireless network! The Linksys Wireless-G Range Expander is the easy way to increase the effective coverage of your wireless network. Unlike adding a traditional access point to your network to expand wireless coverage, the Wireless-G Range Expander does not need to be connected to the network by a data cable. Just put it within range of your main access point or wireless router, and it "bounces" the signals out to remote wireless devices. This "relay station" or "repeater" approach saves wiring costs and helps to build wireless infrastructure by driving signals into even those distant, reflective corners and hard-to-reach areas where wireless coverage is spotty and cabling is impractical. The Range Expander is perfect to help cover large areas in multi-story homes, warehouse environments, public spaces, wireless "Hot Spots", and outdoor venues - anywhere you need extra coverage for your wireless network. The Wireless-G Range Expander is compatible with the Linksys WAP54G Access Point, and both the WRT54G and WRT54GS Wireless Routers. It works with both Wireless-G and Wireless-B clients so you'll get the benefits of increased coverage, even with a mixed network. So, expand your wireless network's effective coverage the easy way, with the Wireless-G Range Expander.
