1.0 out of 5 stars DWL-G810 + Linksys WRT54G, don't go there, April 3, 2005

This review is from: D-Link DWL-G810 Ethernet to Wireless Bridge Adapter, 802.11g, 108Mbps (Personal Computers)
I was hoping to use the G810 as a nice little bridge for my network to a ethernet device but I ran into a few problems. #1, The firmware is buggy. I had to flash the firmware a couple times just to get the configuration console back and when I called tech support, their answer was often, "Unplug the power, wait 10 seconds, and plug it back in." #2, The WPA encryption doesn't work. This may be linked to #3. #3, it works for a few minutes and then quits until you power cycle it. Maybe it has something to do with the interconnectivity between the Dlink and Linksys products, but I could get this thing to serve about 3 webpages before it quit with the encryption turned off, and never got it to work with encryption turned on. My overall take, save yourself the hassle and the 4 hours of your life you'll never get back and don't try to get this thing working with a wrt54g. It seems to me that this is a very poor product and you'd likely save time and money by buying an additional wrt54g, flashing the firmware with sveasoft, and running it in client mode as a bridge. That's what I'm going to try next.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interchangable firmware, November 18, 2004
This review is from: D-Link DWL-G810 Ethernet to Wireless Bridge Adapter, 802.11g, 108Mbps (Personal Computers)
This may (or may not) void your warranty, but the firmware on this product (DWL-G810) and the AP product (DWL-G800AP) is interchangable. This may be more useful for people who purchase the AP/Repeater product and find it useless (since the repeater is only compatible with a few select D-Link products).

I purchased a DWL-G800AP by mistake, intending to purchase this product. I'm happy to say that, after switching firmware, I'm bridging my network at 54mb/sec. The web interface even says DWL-G810 on it. All thanks go to D-Link for keeping production costs low by introducting two identicle products and marketing them in different ways!

5.0 out of 5 stars Make a Switch into a Wireless Switch!, March 22, 2005
This review is from: D-Link DWL-G810 Ethernet to Wireless Bridge Adapter, 802.11g, 108Mbps (Personal Computers)
I use this to connect my Xbox, playstation 2, and networked media player, to my home network and the Intenret.

Basically I just setup this wireless bridge to be able to connect to my wireless network (connecting to a DI-624) which is connected to the Internet. Then this this wireless bridge plugged into one of the ports on my 5 port switch and my Xbox, PS2 and media player plugged into that same switch. So basically my switch is plugged into my network via this wireless bridge. I can use my Xbox online, my PS2 online, and my media player can access streaming audio online.

It's very convenient and I wish the two products I use (5-port switch and this wireless adapter) could be made into one product.

Either way, it works, and it works well. I never get dropped from my games, or my streaming music because of this wireless device, it's usually my cable modem.

I'd recommend this product for people with uses like mine.
