Had some difficulty setting up my network. Lynksys tech support was very helpful. They have always worked with me anytime I had problems with their products. Actually the problems were not the products, but the user.
Gave this router a four star only because I have not had the opportunity to test it on the lower levels of my home. (It's installed on the third level with our desktops.) After I purchase a laptop, I'll have to see how well I receive the signal on the first level. BTW, our cordless phones are on the same frequency as the router and I haven't had a problem while talking on the phone with the router in the same room.
The router is sleek and I do recommend it.

This version of the Linksys left a lot to be desired from previous versions. Had problems recognizing my internet connection. Linksys is aware of this problem with this unit but doesn't seem to interested in fixing the problem. I bought another system to replace this one. I wouldn't recommend this one to anyone.

Easy Installation and works as advertised. Had an existing Road Runner Internet connection and wanted freedom to roam and multiple user access. Installed the Linksys and in a few minutes had multiple users and access from across the street by our community pool. The unit is exceptionally light and I installed it out of site behind my LCD TV in a TV cabinet and it works perfectly.

It could not have been easier to setup and it works great. I have no idea what a more expensive one could do that this one cannot.
Rating: - Good product, some missing features...
The WRT54G2 is your average consumer router. Works great, looks great.
One thing I was concerned about was the lack of external antennas. After using it for almost a month, I can say that it's range is plenty good enough. Covers the entire house, and some of the yard. Don't worry about range, unless you have some special application...
My only real complaint was the lack of some features. I wanted to assign/reserve certain IP address for specified MAC address. This router doesn't allow that.
Overall, it's a good consumer router - probably one of the best choices in it's price range. And the nice new look doesn't hurt either. ;-)
