Linksys WRT120N 4 Port Wireless N Broadband Router 270MBPS 802.11B/G/N

wireless works ok for small to no usage. I bought this router result in I necessary one seriously negative atm and it was on sale. I wasted my dollars on this a single. I seriously necessary to look about more for a router but didn't. It doesn't connect right to my games and other locations even in DMZ. I have to keep switching the DMZ around from mac address to IP and close the DMZ and restart it to connect to gaming websites and yet another game I play. It is rather weird connecting to internet pages it is a bit slow at times and has a lot of errors in the net pages. There is not even updates for the WRT120N on the linksys net page. And this has been on the market place for a long time. May inform me they feel it is a lost result in. This needs updated poor, in my opinion they have dropped the ball on this router.

It works when it functions. It doesn't operate! I've spent HOURS on the phone with consumer support more than a number of days only to have them make a decision that the router doesn't perform. It will take them DAYS to get a replacement here. Unacceptable---specifically when I know that all I'm finding is Yet another piece of JUNK.And they don't even have a way to overnight the replacement. Ridiculous!

The interface is great. Works very good as a wired router. Full failure as a wireless router. Continuous drop outs. Really low wireless speeds. Short range (but it doesn't matter simply because of the dropouts and the ridiculously low wireless speeds). Don't take just my word for it, just do a swift search on the internet. I wish I would've prior to I purchased it. This factor is a mess. I bought this junk at a familiar blue brick and mortar retailer, fortunately. I utilised to adore linksys/cisco item, but the wireless part of this wireless router is a joke. I thought it was me at initially, but then I googled it... and wow. It wasn't just me. I took it back and exchanged it for a more affordable Netgear.

Straightforward setup. Solid connection. Good speed. Good range. Not pricey. The Intel 2200BG cards in my and my son's older laptops will not connect. However, analysis indicates that these have always been problematic. I purchased an n USB adapter and no troubles. This is a excellent fundamental n property router. I have two wired desktop pcs, a wired LJ5M, two wireless pc laptops, a wireless iMac, and a wireless MacBook Pro running and almost everything is just as solid and fast as could be. With standard Comcast service I can download a 100MB file in a minute. The router is set up at 1 finish of the basement and the connection is robust on the main level at the other finish of my 2600 sq ft 1 story property. I do not do any gaming or HD video, it's just employed as an net sharing device. Something a lot more high-priced would just be a waste of funds for my demands.

Straightforward to set up.Range is ok. Have tested range out to about 50 feet reliably via paper-thin interior walls.The hardwired ethernet ports function nicely. Runs Extremely hot. I presently have it suspended upside-down to maintain it from overheating. Some genius engineer place the vents on the underside of the unit. It may possibly be better off with some active cooling.Drops connections nearly each day and desires to be rebooted in order to enable connections again. This seems to be happening far more and much more frequently now that it is out of the return period. Regularly my wireless cards can see the network, but can't connect due to the router refusing connections. Have to reboot the router for this as effectively.Undesirable item. I would have been much more wise to go with the wrt54gl or the wrt160.I bought two of these. One for me and 1 for my in-laws. Each are behaving the similar way.Highest data rates I have noticed on wireless-N cards is 113mbps. Close adequate to what is advertised.

Straightforward Setup? Smashing it was a good outlet for the frustration it triggered me. Drops connection about once per hour. Consantly getting to unplug to reset; even following doing so it generally takes several times to get the connection back. The software program that it comes with is sub-par and a only a trial. Do your self a favor and don't bother giving this poor device any much more consideration. This router is in fact not a accurate Wireless-N router. If you're in the market place for a very good stable router I would think about anything else. For just ษ to ฮ far more you'll be considerably happier. This is the worst router I've ever seen.

Sleek look, simple to install, decent instructions for use. This is the most UNstable technique I have seen. I personal a Linksys G router that ran for over three years. This a single worked fantastic for the very first two weeks. Then the problems started. Reload, refresh, reboot, re every issue else. It could remain operational for anywhere from 10 min to 30 minutes. Then reboot time comes once more. Correct in the middle of employing it, the router kicks me offline! Completely unacceptable! CS ran me throuth unique scenarios to attempt to alleviate the issue. It has the very same effect as just rebooting. two calls withing 24 hours, each CS reps had been kind and considerate, but the results did not remedy the dilemma of being functional.

Comment:
Set up was simple. My LAN - cable online provider. No conflict. I chose to hold two router Ʌ.-old one with direct connection to cable and broadband phone 2.-this new wireless Lynksys. Runs perfectly, no interruption. Signal- 100% all the time. Now I'm enjoying my new Samsung netbook N130 in my bed far away from my primary pc ( two concrete walls). NONE Good price with newegg provide.

Lastly woking as expected It Essential a firmware update from v1..01 to 1..04 to get port forwarding to work along with a couple of minor other features.It took me more than 4 hours and 3 call to tech support to get this working. Following the troubled setup the performace is good. I think all the characteristics are now working at spec levels. Here is what was necessary to get it working:The router address Should be 192.168..1It will not respond to 192.168.1.1 like a lot of routers.You do not want to run the install CD.You have to make positive you have v1..04 or later firmware.Provided this information the router can be setup in much less than 15 minutes and will perform fine.

Uncomplicated to install, took beneath ten-minutes and that's with setting up the security. Quickly and has great range. Effortless to setup the Port rules for gaming. Smaller and sleek so it will go about anywhere. Speed tests on my laptop at 75ft from router show 13.2megs down and 12.8megs up. That's rapidly sufficient for what we want it for. None to speak of so far! Bought this on the Black Friday Sale for around า. Newegg shipped it rapid and free!

Sleek and good hunting, uncomplicated and simple to install, straightforward on the wallet and is excellent for straightforward networking wants........really straightforward desires. (i.e. e mail and on-line shopping) Firmware updates that are not automatic or obvious. Based on how lengthy your item is on the shelf ahead of you got it, it will in all probability need to have firmware updates that may well or may well not screw it up. Cannot run two xbox's or gaming consoles on this router or any other newer linksys router. Buyer Help was really unhelpful and unknowledgable. Wireless signal will be dropped ultimately and you will expertise strange probelms that call for restarts Linksys has a lot of bugs to perform out of their new generation of routers. The tech support guy just recommended I obtain a additional high priced Linksys router even although I had currently purchased this one and a additional high-priced router did not function any greater. When I talked to a CEO of Linksys about these concerns he did not care and utilised the fact that he was not a technician himself as an excuse.

Looks sleek. It died immediately after five months. During that time it dropped my connection, had to be reset many instances, and commonly was a big discomfort to function with. It's not even Draft n certified. I wish I had gone for some thing else. This one isn't worth the hassle of reconfiguring it every month. It seemed to operate fine when it worked, but it would drop my connection pretty frequently. I bought it in a retailer and I must have returned it months ago.

Comment:
none unstable out of the boxhad to reset to factory settings about when a monthunit is tango uniform (titts up, dead) at 7 months do a search for "Linksys WRT120N dead at 6 months"there are as well quite a few hits for this not to be a bad design

Comment:
Came shipped fast and affordable. Was constantly losing connection. I have an old gateway router that outperforms this one particular.

Comment:
Router is ok the issue is the Intel driver. DOES NOT Function WITH Intel/ Pro Wireless 2200BG cards DOES NOT Work WITH Intel/ Pro Wireless 2200BG cards

Comment:
I am on the world wide web, its rapidly and I am not connected to the wall! enjoy it! no genuine difficulties it would not connect to the net for about half an hour, but then it just randomly worked

Comment:
Not too long ago reviewed by Maximum Computer. Is essentially a "G" Router with a "N" label stuck on it. Maximum Computer's assessment:Linksys advertises this router with the tagline “Step up to the speed of Wireless-N!” Read the data sheet, nonetheless, and you’ll uncover this: “Complies with 802.11g, and 802.11b standards, and [is] compatible with -some- 802.11n features” (emphasis ours). The 802.11n typical has achieved enough brand recognition that many customers won’t appear past the N in the item’s name, and they’ll fail to notice that the Wi-Fi Alliance certification logo on the WRT120N’s box extends only to 802.11b/g.

Comment:
Simple setup, nice smooth style Not compatible with DD-WRT. Clunky bloated computer software, do not install it. Local area speeds at 100+ kbps. It took me two hours to transfer a 1gb file in between two computers. Drops WLAN connection constantly! DO NOT Obtain this. You've been warned. I've read all the negative testimonials on-line thinking that it wouldn't happen to me as I've had positive experiences with Linksys so far, specifically with the WRT54GL. This router continually drops my connection.

Comment:
Simple to install and configure Randomly drops network, has to be rebooted. Can not handle file transfers in between pc's or computer to ps3 etc . . . I have tried chnaging the channel, and several fixes listed on linksys web site. None function. Save your funds and purchase anything else much better rated. My old wrt54g in no way once dropped a connection

Comment:
Works with each factor I have. Personal computer, laptop, and wise phones. My computer has a linksys wireless card in it. Not sure about the laptop and smart phones but they connected correct up. Range is not that great but for a โ router it does the job. I would purchase this once more. I have by no means had to call tech assistance for anything on this router...I'm content with it.

Comment:
Functions as advertised. Utilized it for a wireless connection to my iPhone. Had problems with setup and had to contact support. They charged me an additional บ to connect to my pc. Nonetheless, the support guy was quite very good and had me up and running in about a half hour. Prices are all over the place on this product.

Set this up for in my girlfriends area. Easy to setup with out the CD. IF you know what your doing this will work fine no concerns so far. A couple of locations close to by got a bad batch in I couldn't think it I maintain attempting and attempting and finally figured it was a thing wrong with product soon after my 5th return to 2 unique stores letting me know a negative batch of linksys goods came in.

Comment:
Has n protocol. Bought based upon reputation and excellent luck I had with the WRT54G series. Saaaaaaad disappointment! Freezes up at illogical moments with no apparent cause. Speed signifies nothing if you cant get it reliably operational. Took out and went back to WRT54G (greatest router ever devised!) and am happy again. This need to just be a negative/sad design. Wouldn't advocate this issue to anyone!!! Newegg nevertheless rocks. Got a great deal on price and super rapidly delivery with minimal shipping cost.

Comment:
Superior range than the 52G. Connection speed appears quicker also. Haven't tried the N yet, but I'm ready when I get an N laptop. Initially disappointed with the inability to connect to an older laptop making use of 2200G wireless. Installed the oct 09 firmware update and it operates like a champ Glad I checked for firmware updates just before giving up.

Looks nice, simple setup. It won't connect at N speeds! It also chokes with a number of computers ƒ or 3) operating simultaneously at it's G connected speed.I tried difficult to get it to connect 3 diverse laptops at N speeds but to no avail. It kept connecting them at 54 kbs instead of anything higher. When I went in to default the router to N only and challenging set the speed, the highest it would allow me was 65 kbs! It did connect at that, but you might as well maintain your Wireless G router, as then no other G or B device can connect so you have tiny gain. It nonetheless choked with many computers connected and speeds moved to a crawl.Quite disappointed in Linksys/Cisco excellent of late as it appears to be garbage. Installed 2 other Buffalo routers and they worked just fine for the most component and connected above 130 kbs with the very same computers connecting to them. Keep away from Linksys/Cisco routers made for "retail" sale.
