This is supposed to be a WIRELESS router, so why must I plug the computer into it? I called tech support, and it took five attempts just to keep their horrible antiquated menu system from disconnecting me, then I just got to speak to a moron. I am definitely returning it.

The WRT54GL is an outdated model of this product. You can find this for sale at retail stores for $20 less.

I bought a WRT54GS a couple years ago and it still works well. I wanted another, to run wired and wireless devices in my garage. To save a few cents on RAM, Linksys changed operating systems and other details on that model, and advertised the WRT54GL as the model similar to my old one. I bought it, put it away, and finally got to it recently. I was shocked when I opened it: the WRT54GL has no wired ports, only a wireless transmitter. Maybe someone will find that useful, but it’s unlikely — someday you’ll have a PC or laptop with a wired port that you want to plug in and cannot because this unit only talks wireless. It’s useless for me, and now it’s been too long since I bought it to return it. Why does Linksys cut corners this way? Cutting the wired ports cut their costs by $1 or less. Argh.

I hate this thing, I replaced it recently with a ZyXEL x-550, and Ive had NO PROBLEMS with it. This is ‘ok’ for the average home network user. But if you plan to play games, or P2P…maybe even VoIP…you cant go wrong with ZyXEL

Can’t give a review since the router never arrived. It was lost by USPS shipping partner,(contract shipper). My Daughter has also had problems with USPS contract shipping partners through Amazon. However, I must say that Amazon did credit back, to my account, the full purchase price. Will I order from Amazon again, yes? I will just choose a different shipping method.
