SKU:  

In Stock
Availability:   Usually ships in 1 business days
 
 

Wireless-G is the upcoming 54Mbps wireless networking standard that's almost five times faster than the widely deployed Wireless-B (802.11b) products found in homes, businesses, and public wireless hotspots around the country - but since they share the same 2.4GHz radio band, Wireless-G devices can also work with existing 11Mbps Wireless-B equipment.The Linksys Wireless-G Access Point lets you connect Wireless-G or Wireless-B devices to the network. Since both standards are built in, you can protect your investment in existing 802.11b infrastructure, and migrate your network clients to the screaming fast Wireless-G standard as your needs grow.To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Access Point can encrypt all wireless transmissions. The MAC Address filter lets you decide exactly who has access to your wireless network. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.Future-proof your wireless network with the Linksys Wireless-G Access Point. You'll enjoy Wireless-B connectivity today, and be prepared for a high-speed Wireless-G tomorrow.

5Linksys WAP54G  Feb 19, 2010
This is a good router for the price with multi-port use as well as wireless. Contains set-up disc with easy instructions.

2works as advertised but...  Feb 19, 2010
This product works as advertised. However there are facts you should be clued to.

1) it suffers from FTP upload/download issues. It cannot do large FTP transmits or receives without hanging. This is a known problem having to do with some memory leak and their help desk's only response was "well if you want to do that, you need to get something more robust". What an answer eh.

2) the device has upgrade compatability issues. Since my friend having gotten the above answer from their tech support, needed to upgrade in order to branch out into his new B2B FTP processes, he bought a good powered wireless VPN router. But as one reviewer indicated, the WAP54G will only talk to others of its kind. Indeed every setup option has a restrictive use complication. Thus these access points did not work with his new router. This means that when it comes time to upgrade, you cannot just go out and buy any old thing if your intent is to try and reuse these components elsewhere. The new router works fine, but these devices refuse to talk to it. The documentation confirms that indeed the linksys accesspoints won't talk to anything but others of their kind. That means my friend must upgrade not only his wireless router, but also the wirless connection method used by his store front pcs, and also his router setup in his home office which also uses the related linksys product. What should have been a 150$ fix is now a 600$ total replacement because these WAP54G are useless with any other equipment but themselves.

3) it is slow compared to newer equipment. The speed difference between the WAP54G and corresponding router, and the new VPN wireless router was dramatic; visually noticable. Maybe this is a silver lining for my friend. He si somewhat excited about the possible speed improvment he might see at his point of sale units. The new router was painting internet screens very fast whereas the old liksys router was not in comparison. I wish I could give a comparison of wireless PC performance so that I could comment on the actual performance of the WAP54G but since we could not get the wireless connection made to the new router what can I say.

And before someone says that we never tuned the WAP54G setup, know that my friend had network professionals install and optimize the WAP54G equipment when it was initially purchased. They came to his store and home office to do the setup. It cost a few bucks but he was happy at the time to know it would all work.

So to recap:

0) works as advertised but...
1) slow
2) memory leaks
3) upgrade incompatible

Hail Flavius!

5Working fine after 1 year  Feb 06, 2010
I purchased this WAP in Dec 2008 and have only powered it down to move it from one place to another within our office. I am using it on a home network with a wired desktop computer (XP), a wireless laptop (XP Media Center), a wireless desktop (Vista), and a wireless printer. It has been awhile since I set up the WAP, but I can't remember any problems. I would recommend this as a WAP -- just remember, it is not a router.

1Beware of the "1 button easy setup"  Jan 31, 2010
Bought two of these to connect to networks in the house together. Hooked the first one up to the Linksys wireless router. The CD setup instructions said to just hit the buttons (for 1 second) on the AP, and then on the router. The lights flashed white for 20 minutes before I gave up and reset the AP. When it came back on, the leds were stuck yellow and red. Checked online for a way to reset to factory settings. Tried 3 different "official procedure" instructions. Nothing worked.

Going to sell the other one on eBay.

4I put DDWRT on It Perfectly  Jan 22, 2010
I used this access point as a Client Bridge using ddwrt and it was a smooth easy install.
