5.0 out of 5 stars Easy, Reliable, User-Friendly, November 17, 2002

I install networks in Dallas, TX and we have never found an easier more reliable system to use and install than 2Wire. All we had to do was plug it in, install the client software on any machine connected to the phoneline network and then type in a verification code and the settings for your dsl isp, then it was good to go, we have not recieved a single complaint from multiple customers of the homeportal unit being down for a single second. As a networking company we highly recommend it for home or even small business use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Haven't had any problems, October 10, 2003

This review is from: 2Wire HomePortal 1000 Residential Gateway (Personal Computers)

I received the home portal from SBC as part of their home networking kit. It was easy to install and I haven't had any problems with it. The software that came with it lets me monitor all the computers in the network, reset encryption keys, and change firewall settings. A couple of days later, I tried to help some friends with their Linksys router and it was such a pain, making me relieved that I spent the extra money for the wireless router.

Did not enjoy this at all. Would not work so we sold it at a Yard Sale.
