    UPDATE:

    Bought the WRT54GS on Friday, here's how it went:

    Linksys WRT54GS $89.99
    Sale Price: - $ 9.00 off
    New Subtotal $80.99
    With AZ tax - $87.15
    $10 off Linksys MIR - $10.00
    $10 off BestBuy MIR - $10.00

    Final Price was: $ 67.15


    Set this router up in 15 minutes, wired connectivity has improved over my old equipment. I was running a 3 1/2 old SMC Barricade 4 port router (no wireless capability). For my wireless setup I was using a Orinoco Wireless Bridge connected to the SMC. It was all good equipment, just past it's time.

    My only bottleneck was from my laptop's internal wireless card. My Dell 8600 has an internal TrueMoblie 1300 b/g card. I had to download the drivers from Dell for the card and reboot, but after I did, my laptop found the network, I entered the WEP key, and I was up and running.

    Signal strength is excellent! I can go anywhere in my place with a connection speed of 54Mbps or faster. Haven't downloaded the firmware update I mentioned in the previous post, want to play around with the factory software 1st.


    More to come...
